Chapter 903: Showdown
In the evening of the next day, Wilhelm, as the experienced leader of the mercenary group, led the team into the biting cold wind and snowy fields, at this time he was both a beacon in the darkness and a beacon for the whole team.
With their previous experience, Wen Wen and his party were actually ready to trek straight to the ice field, but what they didn't expect was that the next journey was smooth sailing, except for the howling cold wind and the icy ground, there was nothing else that could be called "trouble", and just like that, the group directly crossed the third area of the last Gerlak Mountain and climbed to the top of the volcano that had erupted.
Stepped into that "forbidden land".
"Whew...... It's not as hard as you think. Wen Wen took off the snow goggles on his head, scanned the vast mountaintop plain in front of him, and exhaled hot air and said, "This place ...... Does it look unexpectedly ordinary. ”
"Please don't be careless, gentle sir." At this time, Wilhelm on the side splashed a basin of cold water, "The last time I came up, I was swallowed by this ice field dozens of brothers, in the cold wind, there are countless terrifying giant beasts raided our camp, we have no power to resist, in the dark, all we can see are their piercing blades and blood-red eyes...... It was a bunch of bloodthirsty monsters, and we were as fragile as paper in front of them. ”
"Then you brought someone up this time." The corners of Wen Wen's mouth raised, and the expression on his face seemed a little indifferent, "Aren't you afraid of encountering any more monsters?" ”
"Those monsters are my nightmare, but I can't let my brothers linger in such a dangerous ice cave for a long time." When Wilhelm said this, he shouted directly at the team, "Don't go deep into the forbidden land, find a place to take refuge under the mountain on the side, set up a temporary camp, and after carrying this storm peak, we will go down the mountain...... The vigilance personnel must be vigilant for one hundred and twenty years, this place is more dangerous than all of you can imagine! ”
The terrain on the top of Jerlak Mountain is uneven, it is not difficult to find a place to take refuge, and it takes almost no effort for the soldiers of the mercenary group to find a perfect haven, and the cold materials on the ox carts are unloaded one after another, but the first three ox carts that have been explicitly asked by Boken to prohibit the members of the mercenary group from investigating are still lying quietly in place like a mystery.
"What the hell is this?" Wilhelm leaned on the side of the ox cart and said to himself, "But even if the boss of Boken is gone, these things still belong to the customer's privacy...... Let's go back and leave it to Mormoth and them to deal with it. ”
Thinking of this, Wilhelm turned his head directly to leave, but after taking two steps, he stopped abruptly.
The goods transported by Boken include daily necessities, as well as cold materials, these things that were originally normal, but because of the abnormality of the destination, they became weird, coupled with these three mysterious ox carts, Wilhelm's heart always had a bad premonition lingering back and forth, he turned his back to the three ox carts behind him, and struggled for a long time in his heart, and finally decided to turn around and quietly take a look at what was being transported in these three ox carts.
Just as he lifted the tarpaulin of the ox cart and was about to find a way to take a look, he was startled by a sudden voice behind him: "Captain, are you preparing to peek at the goods delivered by the boss of Boken?" ”
The gentle voice made Wilhelm's whole body tremble, and he turned his head sharply, trying to shake his head: "No, no, I'm just ...... On the check the tarp is there, uh, loose, right, check for loose. ”
"Don't be so nervous, Captain." Wen Wen said, walked directly into the col where the ox cart was temporarily stored, and stood beside the tall orc leader, Wen Wen slowly spoke, "Before...... Haven't you always been very curious about why we went up the mountain, then I'll tell you now. ”
"If you don't want to say it, it's okay." Although he didn't say it, Wilhelm always felt that this guy was reflecting himself, "I didn't mean that." ”
"At this point, there's no point in keeping it a secret." Wen Wen whispered a laugh, "As you can see, none of us are locals, I am a Tiefan person, and I have come to Jerrak Mountain this time for a possible clue. ”
"Possible clues? What clues? Wilhelm was stunned for a moment, then spoke softly, "Could it be those centaur rhinoceros that disappeared in the disaster twenty years ago?" ”
"No, I'm not very interested in the so-called 'treasure of heaven and earth' like the half-human rhinoceros horn." Gently shook his head, and said slowly, "I wonder if the head of the regiment has heard of the 'Dezun Order' during the years that he has lived in the Jerrak Country?" ”
"I've heard it, but it's not very familiar." Hearing the name of the Dezun Order, Wilhelm was obviously not very surprised, but said slowly, "Legend has it that it is an evil organization, keen on some terrible and bloody black magic, but those things are too far away for us, the country of Jerrak is a closed country surrounded by mountains on three sides and the sea on one side, it has been developing slowly and peacefully for thousands of years, and there has never been any major incident in the country, even the information I know is hearsay from the foreign adventurers in the black shop." ”
"No, it's not far from you." The corners of Wen Wen's mouth rose slightly, and he said, "We have traces left by these guys of the Dezun Order in the Iron Sail Country, and it is a hell on earth...... And Abaddon, who was walking with me, also encountered traces of the activities of these guys near the Demon Haze family, and this time we appeared here together, the head of the group should understand what I mean, right? ”
Although Wilhelm's mind was not as flexible as Mirek's, it was also quite quick to react, and before he could finish speaking, he lowered his voice: "Lord Wen means that you have come to Jerrak Mountain to find the Dezun Order?" ”
"That's pretty much what it means, although there is no 100% definite information, but I still have to come and see it, and the goods that this boss of Boken is transporting...... Don't you think it's a problem? ”
