Chapter 109: First, Second, and Fourth
"You should have let me know in advance so I could adjust my break." I'm a little unhappy with the sudden events that affect my sleep.
"I also just received the mission notice, and I will go offline to inform you immediately." Yichen explained.
"That's it, kindness is not rewarded, and you still squeak crookedly if there are good things cheap." He hummed and said, "I'm afraid that it will affect my rest, and now I can go offline to sleep." ”
I'm all up, and you called me offline? Although he was unhappy, he also knew that he was unreasonable, and he was his own person anyway, so he simply admitted his mistake: "I said the wrong thing." "But I'm a little angry about the little fat man's words, when will it be the turn of this fat boy who is a little brother to teach me a lesson! He smirked a few times: "Hehe~" pretended to be approving and slapped the little fat man on the shoulder and back a few times, and slapped him so loudly that he screamed: "It hurts~It's bleeding~~Bruises~~~"
"Don't hit him!" Yichen shouted at me with a straight face, the little fat man was full of gratitude for Yichen's rare words for him, but he rolled his eyes angrily at the next sentence. "If you are injured, you have to give him a healing potion, it's a waste of money!"
The bounty hunter came out to play a round and diverted the topic: "This mission, our gem mercenary group is pouring out, and it is estimated which big family will we be dealing with!" ”
"Big family? It can't be the eight ruling families, right? I laughed in the tone of the bounty hunter, "If any of the eight ruling families is destroyed, our Dark Flame Family's ranking will move up one place, and we will be promoted to the ruling family." ”
"Hmph~ You just dream!" Jie is still angry at being slapped by me just now: "Maybe it's the Ninth Family that hit me this time!" ”
"Oh?" I clenched my fists: "For the sake of the family's interests, I can't say that I want to kill my relatives in righteousness!" He grabbed the little fat man and shouted, "I'll kill you first!" ”
The little fat man was not afraid, and took out his wand to confront him: "Who is afraid of whom?" It's all from our mercenary group! ”
"Don't move!" The thief player sitting in front of me finally couldn't bear it anymore: "How can I help you change your appearance if you move so much?" ”
"Huh? Excuse me. "I obediently sat down again.
After changing my disguise, I blended into the Gem Mercenary Group and set off.
However, as soon as the team was ushered through the dark barrier on the periphery of the battlefield, my excitement about the battle cooled.
“…… How...... How could it be! ”
The team finally stopped, and the complex that appeared in front of me was very familiar, it was actually the official residence of the Star Zero family!
"What's wrong with you?" The bounty hunter asked, puzzled.
"You ......," I couldn't help but whisper, "you're crazy!" That's the Fourth Family of Demon Blade City! ”
"Yay~ Really? You actually said that you were right, the opponent is the ruling family! The bounty hunter sighed.
"Damn!" I thought that only a little fat man would miss the point of such an obvious thing, it turns out that stupidity is inherited in families! "I mean, which family is crazy enough to provoke the fourth family? And why is the boss of your gem mercenary group also going crazy with him? Dare to take on the mission of attacking the Fourth Family! ”
"Huh? Is the Fourth Family powerful? Yichen, who came over, also became interested.
"Of course! The true strength of the Fourth Family far exceeds the ranking! ”
"Can you surpass the First Family?"
"Huh?"
Yichen pursed his lips and motioned for me to look at the other side.
Turning my head, my eyes froze. Is that...... The soldiers lined up in a neat and orderly line, silently, all like wolves before the hunt, only the blood-red eyes revealed bloodthirsty excitement, and at a glance they felt a burst of murderous aura.
Their whole body is uniformly equipped, and it looks like all of them are excellent and extraordinary magical items. Standing not far from them, the mercenary group in my position looked like a bunch of stupid militiamen with rudimentary weapons and shabby armor, untrained.
Elite! Definitely elite! Even in a ninth-ranked family like our Dark Flame Family, only the most elite Praetorian Guards can match it, and the number of those elite soldiers here is roughly calculated to be several times more than the entire strength of the Dark Flame Family!
Their family crest pinned to the chest was a strange short-bladed pattern...... The first family of Demon Blade City - the family crest of the Demon Blade family!
"How so? Doesn't it mean that the war between families is launched by the families after the ranking in order to compete for the previous ranking? There's no reason for the No. 1 family to attack the No. 4 family! "I remember Yichen seems to have said it before.
"How do I know!" Yichen spread his hands and said, "It's not just the First Family and us mercenaries who have come to deal with the Fourth Family!" Look ahead......"
Ahead, in the towering mushroom umbrella group on the periphery of the Fourth Family's official residence, there were deadly flashes of light from time to time.
"Cannon fodder to induce the traps on the outskirts of the Fourth Family." Yichen said lightly: "Which part do you guess they belong to?" ”
"The slave troops of the First Family?" I give a generally reasonable answer.
"No, it's the kobold slave army of the Second Family!"
"The second family also has a part? Two top-ranked families joining forces to deal with a family behind them? I was so surprised that I almost screamed.
"Oh, it seems like the Second Family is just sending a large number of kobold slave troops and a handful of soldiers who oversee slaves into battle."
"I heard that eighty percent of the area of the kobold breeding area in the Claw Rift Grand Canyon is owned by the second family." The bounty hunter chimed in.
"Although I don't know what agreement the first and second families have reached to join forces against the fourth family. However, those kobold slaves would never dare to make a move against the dark elves of the enemy family under the power of the dark elves for many years. Yichen said: "So, they are only used for mine clearance, and the main force of attack is still the soldiers of the first family." ”
"What about our mercenary group?" The bounty hunter asked.
Yichen looked depressed: "Our NPC boss said that after the soldiers of the first family attack in, we will form a blockade defense line around us to prevent the fourth family from escaping." ”
"Isn't it!" The mercenaries around who heard the news all screamed: "We are mercenaries, not handymen pulling barricades!" ”
"What a noise!" Yichen shouted angrily: "The boss is also sympathetic to us, the fourth family is not the small family we have dealt with before, the opponent of this mission is very strong, everyone doesn't want to die and fall down!" Let the guys from the First Family take the lead, and we'll pick up some cheap ones in the back. ”
The mercenaries were not very satisfied, but they gradually quieted down.
The bounty hunter whispered in his ear, "Is there really such a good thing?" The voices could only be heard by me, who was very close to them.
"Damn!" Yichen gritted his teeth and scolded in the same low voice: "Those damn NPC bastards of the First Family don't look down on us at all!" It would be nice to say that the miscellaneous soldiers are handymen......"
