Chapter 19: The Oasis
"Wright, how's it going! Is it almost there? Cecilia's slightly tired voice sounded behind Wright, and the velociraptor followed with even more force.
Even Wright, who has mastered the subtleties and can control every trace of strength in his body, is also a little hungry and thirsty at the moment
It was already the third day after the two men had faced that ambush.
There were less than twenty black-robed people in ambush, and the average strength was only three or four levels, except for the special arrows used in the sneak attack, which were somewhat threatening, they were not the opponents of the two at all.
As the two were killing, Wright sensed and shook the earth and found a scar-faced black-robed man who looked like a leader hiding in a secret room that had just been dug up underground.
Wright pretended not to know, sneaked closer, and then released the magic 'Earth Wall Technique', directly trapping him with magic.
Before Scarface could break through the wall, he was surrounded by Wright, Cecilia, and Velociraptors, who had already defeated the black-robed people.
Whether it is Lyte has Cecilia, his strength is far above him, and Scarface's resistance is not threatening, and he is easily overturned and bound.
The captured Scarface is indeed very tough. Whether it's Wright or Cecilia, there is no psychological barrier to killing the enemy, but they don't know much about torturing and interrogating the enemy who has already been captured, and the only way is to use the rations of the velociraptor as a threat.
Thankfully, not all Assassins were so tough. The few Assassins who survived the slaughter of Wright and Cecilia may not have been afraid of death, but they still chose to give in in to the big lizard's breakfast and confession of leniency.
Under Scarface's murderous gaze, he shook out everything he knew.
Wright was right.
This group of black-robed assassins was indeed raising red-tailed green scorpions to collect their blood and manufacture and sell hallucinogens in order to make a high profit.
Of course, what Wright didn't expect was that they belonged to the constant squad under the command of the 'Black Mist Assassin Organization', and they also had the role of cultivating fresh blood. This made Wright slightly worried about whether he and Cecilia would be retaliated against. You must know that when you defeated those black-robed assassins just now, although most of them were killed or severely injured by them, there were also five or six people who fled. Of course, in this vast desert, without supplies, the probability of escaping is not great.
But carefully the same, nothing else. Before entering the desert, Wright specially prepared a hood, which was originally intended to protect against wind and sand, but it had the effect of covering his face. The Assassins didn't really know who Wright was.
Even if the Assassin knew Wright's identity, he wouldn't have done it easily. Wright was well aware of the principles of these Assassin Organizations, killing people for profit, not for righteousness. Even if the fleeing assassins were alive and knew Wright's identity, and passed the news of Wright's extermination of a squad to the Black Mist higher-ups, there would be no so-called revenge. Kill Wright, and it's impossible to make money. As for Liwei, the Assassin Order relied on secrecy and low profile, and when the prestige of the Assassin Organization spread, it was almost time to be wiped out.
What's more, he is a disciple of a strong man in the Holy Domain, and these assassin organizations will normally avoid characters related to the Holy Domain, and most of the time assassinating such people is definitely not worth the loss. In case it arouses the wrath of the powerhouses of the Sanctuary Realm, none of the three major assassin organizations can hold it anyway.
In the accounts of these Assassins, Wright and Cecilia learned something that they were interested in.
"Your organization has a base in the scorching desert, hidden in an oasis in the middle of the desert. Where you secretly cultivated a 'Blue Grass'? Wright's eyes lit up and he asked!
Don't blame Wright for being greedy, it's really the preciousness of the blue grass is extraordinary.
It must be known that the cultivation of magicians must be one step at a time to increase their spiritual power, which also makes the cultivation of magicians relatively slow, after all, the growth of spiritual power is relatively slow, and almost all the magic masters in the holy domain are achieved after the age of three hundred. But warriors are different, warriors cultivate fighting spirit, and taking some special treasures can improve fighting spirit.
In history, there are twenty or thirty-year-old Sacred Domain powerhouses, and except for a very few of them who are extremely talented and have cultivated by themselves, the vast majority of these extremely young Sacred Domain warriors have taken special treasures to transform their fighting spirit into the Sacred Domain.
While this approach will undoubtedly lead to unstable foundations, it is not worth mentioning compared to the results.
Although the 'Blue Yan Grass' was not the most top-notch treasure, it could raise the fighting spirit of a ninth-level or even eighth-level warrior to the Holy Domain, but it could also make the sixth-level fighting spirit break through to the seventh-level. Levels six to seven are also a very large threshold, second only to level nine to the Holy Realm. What's more, although the effect is not the strongest, the side effects of Blue Yan Grass are negligible, especially for the fighting spirit of the fire system.
Wright naturally wanted this blue grass, and it was just right for him.
"O blue grass! It's a good thing, but you don't have any conspiracy, for example, there is a group of seventh- and eighth-level warriors stationed there, and we will die as soon as we go! Although Cecilia also knew that the blue grass was very precious, her situation was quite special, and these treasures were not of much use at all, and could be viewed with a more detached eye.
Although it appeared to be interrogating the Assassin, it was actually another reminder to Wright.
Wright's heart was also relatively strong, and he quickly came to his senses, and the two looked at the poor assassin with suspicious eyes.
The assassin's face turned white with fright, and he could see with his own eyes how these two men slaughtered a dozen of his colleagues, and then easily captured the powerful leader.
"There aren't too many people in that oasis, and there's usually only a squad stationed there, and the leader is also a seventh-level warrior, I promise!"
"Oh, how many people are in that squad!" Although Wright felt that he was not lying, he still had to ask carefully, although he knew that a small team in the army was ten people, but the Assassin Organization was not an army, maybe it was different.
"I don't know exactly how many people are classified, but there are certainly no more than twenty people!"
"Are there any magicians? Is there any Warcraft? How about vigilance, don't lie, you still have a few companions, we will interrogate them separately. ”
The Assassin gave up even the last bit of intent to deceive, and told everything he knew.
Wright and Cecilia, on the other hand, are increasingly interested.
According to the confessions of these Assassins, the Black Mist Order's location in the Oasis within the Scorching Desert has a lot of good stuff. Due to the special sunlight and environment in the desert, it is a treasure place for cultivating some herbs with special effects when the water is abundant.
Although this assassin is limited to his status and status, he does not know exactly what he is planting, only a blue grass, and some other treasures can only depict the appearance. But Wright, as a disciple of Cromwell's Holy Magister, although he is not very in-depth in alchemy, he still understands some basic things.
"Pure white flowers, three petals, and a sweet smell?"
"A black thorny vine?"
"A fruit with five horns and a change of color?"
The various plants described by the Assassins, most of which Wright was aware of.
Blue grass is the most precious of them, but in terms of total value, it can only be regarded as the tip of the iceberg.
Although the treasures of this level of blue grass cannot be cultivated, and it is difficult to even transplant them, but the next level of 'honey snowflake',
'Black Tooth Vine' and 'Strange Fruit', these special medicinal materials that can be used to prepare alchemy potions are difficult to grow elsewhere, but they grow well in the oasis in the scorching desert.
From this point of view, the so-called Desert Oasis Station is actually a source of income for the Black Mist Organization, which gives this Assassin Organization a lot of profits every year.
And both Wright and Cecilia are very excited about this. If it was pure money, Wright now had enough wealth in his hands. And Cecilia has a Sanctuary powerhouse behind her, and she doesn't care about the money. But if you exchange money for treasures of the same value, you can't help but be unmoved.
And when the two interrogated the succumbing assassin, they didn't see the dying Scarface's eyes glint with pleasure.
And in an oasis nearly a hundred miles away, there is a very abrupt building, made of rock, like a castle. In the halls of the castle, dozens of black-clad assassins knelt down on one knee to an old man wearing a skull mask with respectful faces.
"Lord Chief!"
