Chapter Ninety-Three: The Headquarters of the Eternal Night
Early the next morning.
Shen Mu was woken up early by the small dishes called for breakfast.
Yanzi really changed her previous curly and messy shawl hair, and tied a double ponytail, "Xiao Mu is early." ”
"Well, Sister Yanzi, I didn't have time to tell you last night, Sister Linuo asked me to go back to the room last night to discuss, I was planning to go to Linshui City today or go back to Cangbei City directly to continue to investigate the problem of anger. I want you to stay, though. At least help Lotus Town fend off the beast tide. ”
"No problem, then I won't go. Rest assured, your room will be left for you. ”
Shen Mu didn't expect Yanzi to agree so simply. I'm still thinking about how to convince her.
"Oh, that's settled. Shen Mu said stupidly.
Yanzi smiled, "Then let's go and make an appointment with Xu Bin and Linuo." ”
After dinner, the headquarters of Lotus Town, in the office of Lyric.
Liang Nuo made an appointment last night that Shen Mu would come here this morning, and of course Xu Bin was also there as a deputy group. "Xiao Mu, the news from Lin Shuicheng this morning, the last time they were in the beast tide, they were still the two demon lords who pressed the formation, but they didn't attack, and the kind of anger we found, it seems that the kraken does not exist. This is a message sent back by Cheng Zhantian himself. ”
"Could it be that the anger only belongs to the demon beasts in the Cangbei Forest?" Shen Mu muttered to himself, then glanced at Yanzi, and continued to say to Linuo: "Sister Linuo, Yanzi has agreed to stay. You've seen her abilities, and your defenses combined with her attacks are bound to have a good effect. Then arrange for me a carriage later, and I'll be back to Saint Laurent at once. I don't know what happened to the news over there. ”
"Xiao Mu, don't worry, the message from Saint Laurent City was also received this morning, it was sent by a housekeeper named Xiao You from your side, saying that Saint Laurent City is fine, but Cangbei City seems to be in trouble, and Lin Xue has not returned. I hope you rush back to Cangbei City directly. This is Xu Bin said.
Hearing the news of Lin Xue's departure, Shen Mu's heart tightened for no reason. "Ladies and gentlemen, in that case, I will set off at once. On Twilight's side, I tried to arrange for as many people as I could. ”
Shen Mu got up, and the other three also understood, so the housekeeper immediately arranged the fastest carriage, while Yanzi stayed after saying goodbye. Shen Mu glanced at Xu Bin and then at Yanzi before leaving, and nodded towards Xu Bin, "Take care of her!"
Xu Bin seemed to blush, and then nodded, "Don't worry, I'll send a message back when I arrive, so that Yanzi can rest assured." ”
Shen Mu got into the car and waved goodbye to everyone.
The speed of the forest mercenary group's express car is indeed very fast, and it is a low-level demonic beast Qingying horse pulling the car, and the groom obviously knows this Qingying horse well, and he is extremely skilled in driving it.
In just one and a half days, the original distance of nearly three days was completed.
Shen Mu got out of the car and brought the mask back after coming to Cangbei City, it was now two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Cangbei City was very lively, and some business such as buying and selling demon beast corpses was everywhere.
The Mercenary Guild was densely populated, and although it was not bad to inquire about information, Shen Mu still chose to go to the headquarters of the Eternal Night Mercenary Group. After the accident with the badge of the Twilight Mercenary Regiment, a servant enters the hall with Shen Mu, reminds him that the butler will come later, and pours him some water.
The headquarters of the S-class mercenary group is really Shen Mu's first time here, and the luxury of the hall alone is close to the level of a big chamber of commerce like the God of Wealth Regiment. There was an endless stream of people handling business at the window, in addition to the personnel who obviously wore the cloak of the Eternal Night Mercenary Group, most of them were from other mercenary groups, most of them accepted the tasks assigned by the Eternal Night Mercenary Group, and came to hand in the tasks at this time.
Because the Twilight Mercenary Group is considered half an ally of the Eternal Night Mercenary Group, the reception speed of the Eternal Night is still quite fast, and every ten minutes, a person who looks like a butler comes back and salutes Shen Mu, "Hello, Twilight Snow's friend, is there anything I can do to help you?"
"I want to inquire where our head of the regiment is now?" Shen Mu asked directly.
"It's Captain Lin Xue, she's in the upstairs room here, do you need me to report it?"
"Well, let's go and report it, just say that Twilight Snow Mu Mirage asks to see you. ”
"Okay, come with me to the reception room. ”
Shen Mu was led to a separate small reception room on the second floor, where he was asked to wait. It didn't take long for a familiar figure to enter the house.
"Xiaomu!" the voice of the visitor was as moving as a lark.
"Lin Xue, are you okay?" Shen Mu was a little excited, although he had only seen Lin Xue for a few days.
"Well, it's not a big deal, it's just that there's been a lot going on in the past two days. "Lin Xue is still dressed in daily life, dignified and pretty.
"Sit down and tell me what has happened in the past two days, I have a lot to tell you over there. Shen Mu pulled Lin Xue to sit beside him, and said after giving Lin Xue some water.
"Well," Lin Xue looked at Shen Mu and smiled, and then said: "The demon monarch finally appeared in Cangbei City, I was notified to rush to support as soon as possible, it was two demon monarchs, the eighth demon monarch Oz and the sixth demon monarch Hua Luo, but Oz did not attack, and Hua Luo's attack seemed to be just a temptation." ”
"Temptation, what is the strength?" asked Shen Mu.
Lin Xue smiled bitterly, "I am not his opponent when I join forces with Huang Yiling! ”
Shen Mu was shocked, "How is it possible! Has he conjured up his body?"
"Of course not, we all said it was a temptation, and we finally retreated to the scope of the city-defending array in Cangbei City before forcing Hualuo to retreat. ”
Shen Mu had actually heard that the main city had a large array of defending the city, and when he heard Lin Xue mention it, he asked directly, "Can the great array of defending the city stop the demon monarch?"
"It's definitely not okay to block directly, the big array in Cangbei City is directly controlled by Huang Yiling, and even if Oz and Hua Luo join forces, they may not be able to capture Huang Yiling under the blessing of the big array. Lin Xue put her index finger against her cheek and tilted her head in thought.
"It's so strong? It can increase its combat power several times. ”
"Xiao Mu, driving the big array requires a lot of demon crystals, and fairy crystals are money. ”
"So that's why the Fortuna Order is so important in the eternal night. Shen Mu said.
"It's not true, the strength of the God of Wealth is already good. ”
The two talked for a long time, but the door was opened again. Shen Mu actually knew a few people.
"Huang Yiling, sure enough, the information of your territory can't escape your ears, Xiao Mu hasn't been here for a long time, and you're here. Lin Xue said coldly, but she has always been like this to outsiders, and Huang Yiling is also used to it.
"Haha, Head Linxue laughed, I just came back from outside, and the housekeeper mentioned it in passing, don't I bring my grandson and granddaughter-in-law over to have a look. Huang Yiling laughed, and was not polite, he came in and sat opposite Shen Mu and the others, then waved his hand, and continued: "Yixuan, Yanyue, let me introduce to you, this is the little brother of Mu Mirage of the Dusk Xue Mercenary Group. Low-level light spirit master. ”
"Grandpa, didn't I tell you, Yanyue and I are just friends, don't always talk about granddaughter-in-law or something. Huang Yixuan, who was standing in the back, was obviously a little dissatisfied with this and said it directly.
"Bastard boy, aren't you ashamed enough, giving you so many resources to cultivate to a high-level spirit master, my face has been lost by you. Look at the mirage. Huang Yiling pressed Huang Yixuan down beside him, and said a bunch of parental words.
Huang Yixuan was speechless and didn't want to say anything more. When Cheng Yanyue saw Huang Yixuan sit down, she also found an empty sofa and sat down, looked at Shen Mu with her eyes, and asked directly: "Mu Mirage, are you a student of Yves Saint Laurent Academy, and you look about the same age as us, right?"
The focus of several people converged on Shen Mu's side.
"Haha, what kind of student am I, just an unknown little mercenary, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning," Shen Mu didn't dare to look at Cheng Yanyue at all, he didn't want to be recognized, so he simply teased his bangs and blocked most of his forehead.
In fact, it is also strange that Cheng Yanyue and Huang Yixuan did not go to the academy competition, otherwise they would definitely recognize that Xue Ling as Lin Xue, combined with the relationship between Lin Xue and Shen Mu, it is naturally not difficult to guess who this Mu Mirage is.
However, even if there are many students who have seen Xue Ling's true body, they naturally can't see a peak powerhouse like Lin Xue, and Lin Xue in a combat state is even more cold and arrogant, and she can't compare it with the lively beauty Xue Ling of the academy at all.
In the face of Mu Mirage's snort, Huang Yiling also disagreed, he didn't think that the person who had been wearing a mask didn't have any secrets, but you didn't break it either. "Yanyue, I haven't met you for a long time, how have you been following Yemei in Songzhi City recently?" Huang Yiling obviously valued this new member of the group, after all, fire-based spirits were also very rare.
Cheng Yanyue seemed to be accustomed to the culture of the head of the regiment, and replied without waves: "Sister Yemei is very good and takes care of us." I haven't had an accident, and I can get the exercise I deserve, and I vaguely feel that I am going to break through to the spirit master in the near future. This is also the main purpose of my return with Yixuan this time. We will go back to the academy first to break through under the guidance of the mentor, and the mentor in the inner courtyard promises to provide us with mid-level spells for us to choose from. ”
Huang Yiling nodded, in fact, he also understood in his heart that it was already a genius to be able to approach the breakthrough spirit master in a year, but why was Twilight's Mu Mirage even more perverted, so he had such high requirements for his grandson.
Huang Yiling didn't think so, Shen Muke was shocked after listening to Cheng Yanyue's words, there was actually a tutor to guide the advancement, and he also provided free middle-level exercises to choose from? Shen Mu was speechless, he had to travel many places at that time to get a book of middle-level spell exercises, and later relied on his special status in the God of Wealth Regiment to exchange a large number of points and drag Liu Ru to get the exercises he wanted. It's really more popular than people.
"Mu Mirage, you and a friend of mine grew up very similar. Huang Yanyue said again.
Shen Mu was startled again, so he had to pretend to be calm and replied, "Oh, does Miss Cheng know other light spirit masters?"
"No, he's a martial artist, and if it weren't for that, I'd almost be sure you're him. ”
"Oh, haha, is there such a similar person?" Huang Yiling said with a smile. "Then you have a chance to introduce me to you. ”
"Huang Yiling, let's talk about the next plan, Xiao Mu has something important to discuss with me, you happen to be there, let's listen to it together." Lin Xue was polite when she spoke, but her temper was like this, and Huang Yiling didn't have any grudges, but said.
"Well, it just so happens that Huang Yan and Wang Han are also here, since it's an important matter, I'll let them all come back. ”
