The strong man Sharo's nose moved, there was no expression on his face, and Caesar did not move, and continued to walk in with a group of noisy mercenaries.

They walked south along the dense jungle, and everywhere they saw were the green pine forests common in the Ebu region, and there were surprisingly few wild animals, and the occasional shadow of some animals was fleeting.

The group crossed a hill or two and entered the heart of the Thorn Mountains, and looked down at the terrain gradually becoming more rugged, and it was reasonable to think that the vegetation in such an inaccessible place should be very lush, but the trees in front of them seemed to have withered, especially at the bottom of the valley, which was full of rocks.

This is not normal, the branches of Yukrasir are part of the World Tree, full of life and vitality, even if it is not infused with energy to activate it, its natural emanating aura can turn a wasteland into a forest, but this place is the complete opposite.

Caesar thought for a moment and said, "You see." ”

In terms of strength, the Black Dragon Emperor did stand on top of the world, but in terms of erudition and insight, the Black Dragon, who was only in his fifties, was far superior when facing most of the immortal species, and this one next to him was one of them.

Caesar was inquiring, not because he was worried that the monster was too powerful and too dangerous ahead, but only that he was skeptical of the existence of Yuklahir.

"Well, nothing."

The strong man nodded, signaled that there was no problem, and continued to walk forward.

After a while, after thinking about it, he still explained in a low voice: "When the branches of the World Tree were just born, they needed to extract nutrients from the earth to awaken themselves, and when they maintained a stable state, they would feed back to the earth to nourish all things. ”

"Where did it come from?"

"Who knows, maybe it's a gift from heaven, but according to historical records, it's not easy to find it." The smell of crawling creatures in the air was gradually thickening, and a look of vigilance appeared in Sharo's eyes: "Nine-headed giant snake, I haven't heard of such a monster yet......"

The sky gradually darkened, and the gloomy atmosphere regained the calm of the rabble behind them, although the team continued to move forward, they had already lit the torches, although it was not wise to light a fire in the dark, but this was an adventure, not a war, and the beasts and monsters were afraid of fire.

After walking a little further, they finally reached the site of the disaster, a mine in front of them, from which the news of Yuklahir and the Hydra had come from: a month and a half earlier, a catastrophe devastating to mortals had erupted in the mine, and almost none of the 2,000 people present had survived.

The Lord of Gold and Silver Town's response was to insert a few wooden planks at the entrance, and write them in the lingua franca, halfling: Extremely dangerous! Those who have not given up their lives are not allowed to enter!

At first, there were many adventurers who did not have a long eye trying to challenge themselves, but most of them, whether they were groups or individuals, disappeared without a trace after crossing this mine, and it was not until half a month ago that people gradually realized the seriousness of the problem, faced up to the unknown monsters that may exist in the Thorn Mountains, and also spread the news to all parts of Eladia.

When night comes, the vast land sleeps in darkness, and the silence seems to mourn the dead of the land.

"There's a living person up ahead."

Staring at the warning signs, Sharo suddenly said, he quickly walked around the ruins of the mine, and at the same time did not forget to glance back at Caesar, he really regarded Caesar as a spellcaster, and was dissatisfied with the other party's carelessness, this guy looked relaxed and casual as if he was here to play, this kind of thing should have been discovered by the spellcaster first.

The breath of life appeared in the valley behind the mine, and the further you went into the valley, the more desolate the environment became, with little vegetation to be seen on the surface, sharp rocks with sharp teeth and sharp teeth followed you, there seemed to be some withered old trees in the distant darkness, and the cold wind from the mountains creaked through the branches like a ghost.

After Sharo's description, Caesar knew that this was the reason why the nutrients of the land were absorbed by Yuklahir, but he didn't know how to search for it, and he had just swept through the Thorn Mountains with his psionic energy and found nothing, and the breath of the reptilian creatures was also thick and faint and irregular, so far there were no clues.

This is not a problem, because this "human" in front of him knows.

There are all kinds of inadvertent signs that Sharo knows how to find the Hydra and Yuklahir, and only needs to follow his will, and sooner or later he will be led to his final destination, but due to the righteous and good camp and deep-rooted nature of this guy, he will do many things that delay time on the way - such as now.

They traveled along a rugged mountain road until they finally found a camp at the foot of the mountain.

"That kind of thing...... It's not at all something that mortals can resist...... I shouldn't have come in here for money...... Maybe there will be a way to live if you leave when you are in Gold and Silver Town......"

Some distance away, Caesar could already hear the staccato sound.

There were about fifty or sixty people in this camp, lit a bonfire, and they did not show any surprise, vigilance, excitement, or other emotions for the arrival of another group of adventurers, but only looked up twice, lowered their heads again, and muttered twice: "Another group of deaths." ”

"Hey, friend." In public, Sha Luo entered the previous bold and enthusiastic character again, puffed up his chest and walked forward: "It seems that everyone is not in high spirits, what's the matter, have you suffered any blows?" ”

No one answered.

Caesar looked at them, and the expressions on these men reminded him of the despair of being a gray centaur in captivity at the beginning of his life—unable to resist when he was dying.

"In that case, why don't we get together."

The feeling of being ignored made Sharo's face flash with anger, and in order to maintain his character, he reluctantly smiled: "I'm a full-time monster hunter, and I have a lot of experience, so I can take you away." ”

"Leave?"

His words caused the people in the camp to react, and a middle-aged man who looked like a leader whispered, "I haven't seen anyone who can leave, as long as we enter the Thorn Mountains, we are all food." ”

"You mean...... Hydra? ”

"Don't talk about monster hunters, it's useless when the dragon hunters come, the people outside are wrong, it's not an ordinary monster, but an evil thing that can fight the gods in legends."

A gray-haired woman shifted her buttocks, sat on the ground with her knees folded in front of the newcomers, and said to Sharo, "Those femme fatales alone can kill everyone here, including you." ”

"Evil things? Eladya has not seen anything evil for five hundred years. Sharo sneered and put down his big sword, and the blade sank into the rock: "Did you see it?" ”

"It's not us who sees it, it's the army."

Seeing the staggering weight of the giant sword, a glimmer of hope welled up in the woman's eyes, but then it was immediately extinguished, and her chin was buried in the crook of her arm: "There are more than five mineral veins in the Thorn Mountains, do you think that the Golden and Silver Town and even the Ebu Kingdom will turn a blind eye to the affairs here and only invite adventurers to investigate?" ”

"They sent troops, and then we watched as the elite army, which numbered more than two thousand, was wiped out in less than three minutes."

"Three minutes ......" Sharo's expression became solemn, he was thinking that it would take him a few minutes to annihilate an army of two thousand men, and he would never be able to do it in a human state anyway.

"Three minutes." Caesar thought for a moment and continued to be in a daze.
