Chapter 19: The Sights of the Bristle Griffon

"Teacher, there's a caravan blocking the way ahead."

Xilu looked at Chu Yun who was recuperating with his eyes closed on the roof of the car and breathed a sigh of relief, this time he finally didn't disappear suddenly like before.

Chu Yun had disappeared for a long time just now, and Xilu waited in place for most of the day before seeing Chu Yun descending from the sky.

Now that Xilu didn't care what Chu Yun did, she didn't think she would be surprised anymore.

Hearing Xilu's words, Chu Yun yawned and opened his eyes to look ahead, his position was high enough to look down more clearly.

Chu Yun and Xi Lu's chocobo carriage traveled on the official road, and because they were lightly loaded, they were much faster than the other convoys, overtaking many carriages along the way.

This time, the convoy was quite large, with eight trucks lined up.

The reason why these vehicles stopped turned out to be that someone had been killed in front of them, and the identity of the deceased was being investigated at this time.

It is difficult to find the killer even if he is killed in the middle of nowhere, but if there is someone who knows the deceased, it is usually helpful to bury the deceased or notify the family.

No one knows if the next person to encounter this situation will be themselves.

"Rest, I'll take a look." Chu Yun turned over and got out of the car and patted the chocobo's head.

"Chirp~"

The chocobo squatted down a little frightened, different from the previous liking for the druid's breath, at this time, the chocobo saw Chu Yun as if he had seen an ancient beast.

Shiro followed, and she had walked the road to Seka City several times, but it was the first time that someone had been killed on the road.

The aura on Chu Yun's body made the caravan a little vigilant, but he was a little relieved after seeing the adventurer's medal hanging on his chest, as well as the harmless Xilu next to him.

"What's going on here?" Chu Yun asked.

The leader of the caravan had already finished checking the corpse at this time, and when he heard Chu Yun's inquiry, he couldn't help but say, "Hey, it's a monster, this adventure team was attacked by monsters, and all of them died." ”

In addition to the corpse in the middle of the road, there were quite a few blood stains and debris in the surrounding area.

Chu Yun frowned and came to the corpse, this corpse was an adult male warrior, judging from the traces on his body, he should have been killed by a bird of prey.

"Are there any powerful flying monsters around here? Judging from the bloodstains, it was no more than half an hour before the time of death, and there may be danger ahead. Chu Yun guessed.

The caravan was the first to pick up the map: "If the map is not expired, it is said that a steel-feathered griffon lives on the rocky mountain ahead." But it hasn't been around for a long time, maybe not it. ”

However, his illusions were soon shattered, and a mercenary picked up a silver feather from a distance and walked over.

"Boss, there are feathers found here, it should be right."

The leader of the caravan took the feather with a solemn face, and his hands trembled a little.

"Damn! Why did it come back again, it's a problem now. ”

"This old brother, can you lend me a look?" Chu Yun stepped forward with some curiosity and asked.

The leader of the caravan is now the time to employ people, and he is ready to wait here for the others to arrive and set off together, so Chu Yun, a somewhat strange-looking professional, is also the target of his wooing.

"This friend, I'm Hook, and you're going to Seka City too, why don't you stay and wait, and then there will be more people and move forward together?" Hook enthusiastically handed over the feather and persuaded at the same time.

Chu Yun was noncommittal, and looked at the feathers of the steel-feathered griffin.

[Steel Feather Gryphon Feather (Green) Lv28, a material with both toughness and hardness, which can be used to craft equipment]

The level of the material is usually lower than that of the monster, and judging from the attributes of the feathers, this steel-feathered griffin is likely to be a monster above Lv30.

And judging from Chu Yun's rich experience in the game world, if the two worlds are about the same, this steel-feathered griffin is still an elite monster.

The strength of the elite monsters is much stronger than that of monsters and humans of the same level, and it usually takes multiple ordinary professionals of the same level of humans to defeat the elite monsters.

Lv30 or above, in this world, it belongs to the ranks of high-level warriors and high-level magicians.

The high-level mage is at the level of a magician, and if he does encounter this steel-feathered griffin, it will be devastating to this caravan.

The strongest of these mercenaries is only a Lv21 Tier 2 intermediate warrior, and he is no match for the griffin at all.

"This is a third-order elite monster, you better take a detour." Chu Yun kindly reminded.

Hearing Chu Yun's judgment, the caravan leader Hu Ke asked with a bitter face, "This friend, are you sure?" Are you sure it's an elite monster? ”

Hook the Steel Feather Griffon still knows that it is indeed a third-order monster, but he can't be sure if it's an elite monster.

"Although the ordinary steel-feathered griffin feathers are also silver, they will not have a metallic luster, and the body of this steel-feathered griffin has undergone essential changes." Chu Yun handed the feather back to the other party.

Chu Yun said this, Hu Ke listened to some convincing, but it was too much time for him to make a detour, and he would not be able to catch up with this batch of goods at that time.

Hook called the mercenary captain: "Poole, is this griffin really a third-order elite monster?" ”

Although Puran is the captain of the mercenary, he has limited knowledge, let alone a steel-feathered griffin, and even an ordinary griffin has never encountered any elite who knows what is not elite.

For mercenaries, though, safety comes first.

This time, the contract is based on the time calculation, and the more the mercenary team can get if they take a detour, the more they can kill two birds with one stone.

"It should be true, I think we'd better take a detour." Puran wittily agreed with Chu Yun's statement.

At this time, Chu Yun returned to the chocobo carriage and prepared to set off again.

Hu Ke on the side saw that Chu Yun did not turn the head of the car and continued to move towards Panshi Mountain, and stepped forward with some puzzlement and said, "This friend has a fork in the back, and the front can't be bypassed." ”

Chu Yun smiled: "It's too troublesome to detour, I'll go first." ”

"Wait! Didn't you say that the Steel Feather Griffin was an elite monster? How dare you go here? Hu Ke thought for a while that Chu Yun was teasing him.

The steel-feathered griffin was very dangerous to the caravan, but to Chu Yun it was just a monster, and there was no need to make a detour for the sake of the monster.

"It's an elite monster, but it's nothing to me."

The carriage sped past Hook, leaving him messy in the wind.

"This bastard must be lying to me, Pullan, are you sure that griffon is an elite monster?" Hook stared at Puran to confirm again.

"Don't lie to me, it's about the credibility of your mercenary squad."

Seeing that Hook was a little angry, Puran couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't get excited, don't get excited, I also made a guess based on my rich adventure experience." ”

"Hmph, you mercenaries are always cunning, that young man just now is only in his early twenties, where do you know what elite monsters are, I think he just talks about it!" Hook made a decision.

It wasn't a wise decision, but it was a forced choice for Hook, who was pressed for time.

However, even if the griffon was really an elite monster, it might not have attacked them, after all, it had eaten quite a few people today.

"After waiting for a few more people, let's move on and pass through the Rock Valley overnight today!"
