Chapter 93: The Cave of Bones (II)

"Urs...... Wait, I've heard about your fame in the city lately. Following the direction shown upwards in the old thief's palm, Captain Eddie of the Guard shifted his gaze to the young man, and his eyes suddenly thought of something, "You were the best performing team that was unanimously recognized by the three regiments of Orichal, Shaver, and Hummingbird in the last urgent mission?" ”

"Admit without humility that we are." Urs gave Groledon a satisfied look, and then accepted Eddie's unintentional compliment with a clear conscience, saying that the old thief's ability to negotiate fortunately made up for his lack of charisma, and that prestige was indeed a good thing to act with.

In the game, the personal reputation of the character in a certain area is a hidden data that cannot be queried by the game system, but experienced veteran players can estimate and judge their reaction attitude through the things around them.

Eddie Horford looked at the young man more closely, hesitated for a moment and continued, "In that case, then I won't question you too much. Lead us the horse, and my men will take care of the horse and the cart for you while you go in and destroy the skeletons. ”

"Thank you." The young man nodded and handed the reins forward.

"Where the duty lies." Eddie turned his head expressionlessly and glared at one of his guards.

The guard reacted immediately, and trotted over at the signal of the captain of the guard, and took the rope from Urs.

"Now, I'll take this moment to tell you what's in this cave, if you want to hear it." Seeing the guard lead the horse away, the middle-aged captain of the guard turned his perspective back to Urs and proposed.

"Please." Urs knew the information about the copy of the Bone Cave, but he didn't mind anyone adding more information to him.

"From here, after about ten minutes of uninterrupted walking into the cave, a large number of skeletons will attack you from the darkness with their hatred of the living." Eddie lifted the halberd in his hand and half-leaned over to point to the hole sealed by the iron fence door, "In addition, a few kind pieces of advice for you—"

"First of all, as we all know, there is something in the eyes of undead creatures called soul fire. The low-level undead do not hide the flames in their eyes, and will expose their presence in the dark, so you must be careful to observe this so that you can easily determine the location of those monsters. ”

"The vast majority of undead creatures in this cave are skeletons, but the possibility of a low-level corpse witch cannot be ruled out, after all, you also know that there is a damn idiot necromancer in the deepest part of this who messed up his own Pale Lord Advancement Ritual, although he is in some ways 'dead' right now."

"Corpse witches are low-level spellcasters. I have the combat skills and basic tactical literacy that a regular warrior should have, but I don't know magic, so I can only remind you here not to underestimate any caster enemy, even if the opponent is just a low-level corpse witch who does not even have an independent personality consciousness. ”

"Dealing with skeletons, arrows and darts will do a limited amount of damage. At the suggestion of a veteran mercenary, a blunt weapon such as a warhammer, mace, or flail would be a good helper for you, and a few hammers will be used to break up the bones and slags that fall apart...... Of course, I mean, the greatsword behind your back looks pretty good, Captain Urs. ”

"As for the necromancer's ghost, I don't know about him, that's pretty much all I can tell you."

With that, he lifted his shoulders and pestled the halberd down on the dirt at his feet, exhaling a breath from his mouth and waiting for the adventurer's side to respond.

The kind captain of the guard had already told Urs everything he knew.

The young man smiled back at him with a thankful smile: "That's enough, Mr. Captain. We won't let you down. ”

……

And so, a few minutes later.

The rusty iron fence door made a "snap" sound to unlock under the turn of the key, and Eddie Horford, the captain of the guard, opened it for the adventurers with his own hands, and watched the thorn squad led by Urs gradually sink into the deep darkness with a little brightness belonging to the luminous stone in his eyes.

He didn't know if he was doing the right thing, if he was doing his duty as a guard to guard the place, or if he had sent these brave fellows into a dead end with no return.

The fate of adventurers is sometimes like this, the fork between reward and death is in front of you, and the way forward will always pick one of them for you, or retreat on the spot, save your life, and then withstand the pressure of being ridiculed by your peers and suffer the loss of reputation.

At the very least, may they come back alive to pick up the wagon that has been deposited in their possession, victory or escape, whether they succeed in their mission or not. The captain of the guard sighed lightly and thought to himself silently.

Along the only passage in the cavern, the Thorns Squad continued to advance in a cautious formation, with Gloriden holding a luminous stone and a short sword in his left and right hands as the team's scouts to reconnoitre.

Thea and Jaybird, two members with spell-casting abilities, walked in the middle, Stone Fist stood behind and was responsible for the rest of the guard work that the old thief couldn't take care of, while Urs himself and Koto walked on either side of Thea and Jay, but not so much to protect the flanks of the team, but to ensure that they could rush to the front row at any time to provide cover for Glorydon's timely retreat in such a one-way terrain where a tunnel leads to the end.

"With the fire on the fire, Xiao Meng will witness the end of evil! The warriors of the clan will smash all those moving bone racks, and there will be no one left! Koto vomited outside the cave for a long time, but now he regained his undaunting fighting spirit, and seemed ready to throw his fighting spirit into battle against evil with the hammer in his hand.

Just like the orc monk's obsession with order, the dwarven warrior with a rectum character will not hide his inner thoughts, and he seems to have a justice similar to that of the holy warriors engraved in his bones, and this obsession with justice seems to be an important part of the warrior glory in his heart.

Stonefist walked at the end of the line and shook his head, thinking that this guy's voice was still as unaware of his own volume as ever.

Maybe I should kindly remind him now?

But is it your duty? Urs didn't explicitly ask himself to pay attention to these small details in the ranks.

Suddenly, the orc monk pondered for a moment for his faith, and then quickly shook his head and came back to his senses.

But fortunately, his worries were unnecessary.

Uls knew that Groleiden's reconnaissance work required a relatively quiet environment to operate, and then spoke out to reassure the dwarven warriors who had begun to uncontrollable impetuousness, and said, "Calm down first, Iron Bucket." There will be a chance for you to perform in a moment. ”

"Hmm... Okay, just do what you say, captain. Koto chewed his mouth and felt that it made sense, "Then a little later...... Wait, iron buckets? ”
