Chapter 369: A Crisis of Unknown Origin
The leader of the level is a tall middle-aged man, with a scar on the right side of his face, he looks quite fierce, and his eyes are extraordinarily bright, but his complexion doesn't seem to be very good, and he has been calm, looking a little melancholy.
The room was also quite simple, except for a few rough pieces of ordinary furniture, the old map full of symbols was a little conspicuous, and he was not too surprised to see his brother come in with three strangers, obviously it was not the first time he had encountered such a thing these days.
"Big brother, these three little brothers are disciples who came out with the family to train, and they encountered a group of corpses outside and were scattered, and they want to stay here for some time, waiting for the adults in their clan to come and look for them. β
The tall and thin man called the monkey said slowly, and it was obvious from his tone that he had great respect for the man with the scar in front of him, and the man sitting on the chair frowning lightly threw the knife in his hand to the map, and the latter was firmly nailed to the map, and he said in a deep voice.
"It's okay to stay, but you have to follow our rules, and besides, monkey, have you told them about our current situation? This is not a refuge! If you want to live, I advise you to leave as soon as possible, there are more terrible opponents besides the corpses. β
The monkey nodded and added, "I told them that they had nowhere to go, and they all expressed their willingness to stay on the way." β
The man on the seat stood up and glanced at Ning Feng and the three of them seriously, and said slowly after a while: "Since there is no place to go, let's resist the corpse group with everyone, there will be a wave of corpses tomorrow morning, and you can survive after noon, then it proves that you still have some ability, the people under my command will provide clean water and food, you do a good job, monkey, they will be handed over to you, and also, don't let strangers in anymore, we have already mixed in a lot of people from those guys outside." β
The scar leader's tone was very calm, but it made the man called the monkey look at him, and he looked at Ning Feng and the three of them with bad intentions, and at this time, the scar leader said lightly: "They shouldn't be, there is less anger of the people in the rivers and lakes, but there is more evil energy, your identity should also be made up, right?"
The fat man and Lu Yun's eyelids jumped, this guy really had good eyesight, and couldn't help but be on guard at the same time, Ning Feng looked at the leader of the scar, stepped forward to cover up the fat man and Lu Yun's cramped and restless movements, smiled and hugged his fists and said: "Yes, we are indeed not disciples of any family, but we didn't deceive the guard brothers outside, we were indeed chased by the corpses, don't worry, we were not sent by those people in your mouth, and even, we were chased and killed by a certain group of people for several days before." β
The monkey breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but his face was silent, Ning Feng and the three of them were not very old, and they didn't look like any big traitors, but this ability to lie without blushing and heartbeat really made him impressed, thinking of this, his rare face turned red, no wonder the eldest brother always called himself and the old black stupid black black man stunned monkey, he really didn't wronged them, he was actually deceived by the three little ghosts.
The Scar Leader nodded, and said in a slightly softened tone: " Well, we also have our difficulties, we can't help you much, if you want to live, you have to depend on your own ability, be careful when you get to the dangerous wall, there are a few troublesome guys, they are good at cultivating, drive them away for fear that they will jump off the wall in a hurry, and it is nothing for young people to be angry, this level is not big, although everyone's minds are somewhat different, but they can also trust each other, there are no hopeless people who have no intentions, you just be careful yourself, monkey, you call someone to bring them over to help, and then call a few of our old brothers to come over and sum up, there is news from outsideγ β
Ning Feng and the three of them walked out of the room, although there were too many doubts in their hearts, such as this unfathomable scar leader, Ning Feng found that he couldn't see through his cultivation at all, that is, this person's cultivation was very likely to reach the throne, but his leaking aura showed that this person should still be some distance from the Martial King, which was strange. For another example, Ning Feng wanted to ask what was going on around the Martial King's Tomb, could it be that someone had already begun to be able to control the corpses? Also, the leader reminded the three of them to be careful, but added that those troublesome guys were trustworthy, which made him more and more curious about the composition of the personnel in this level.
According to the words of the big black man who was unabashedly and the man who was called the monkey before, there were more than 300 people in this level, including more than 100 elderly women and children who needed to be taken care of, so it means that the remaining 100 people were laborers? Since there were people in this group of people who made this scar leader a little embarrassed, then Xiuwei would not be too weak in thought, since they were all people who met on the road, I am afraid that the force was uneven.
And the scar leader just said in front of them that he mixed into the group of guys outside, which means that there are other forces in it, but why does the leader still have the three of them to do things in a low-key manner, and say that the people around him can be trusted, is it just for the overall situation to stabilize people's hearts?
Ning Feng's thoughts were very confused, and then he scratched his head, yes, these things have something to do with him? He just sneaked in to find the little beast, even if he couldn't find it, the second goal was to cross the level and enter the tomb of King Wu, find the big trees that Old Man Zhang said, and then let him settle in the ground, and the rest, it seems that he didn't have anything to do......
The monkey finally ordered a short and fat young man to lead the way for Ning Feng and the others, but after a while, he summoned six men who were about his age to kill with their breath, and there was a middle-aged woman at the end, and the eight people pushed open the door and walked straight over, the cold face of the scar leader who was pacing back and forth in the room eased rarely, and the person on the right hand of the monkey was the big black strong man that Ning Feng met outside, he looked at a room of brothers who had not been together for several days, and frowned.
"Captain, what is it that brought everyone together this time?"
The man with the scar had a sad face, and said in a deep tone: "The six brothers I sent didn't come back last night, they should all be killed, and there are ......" He suddenly choked up a little, his eyes were a little red, and a half-red and half-blue knife appeared in his hand, and he gently put it on the table.
"The third child is also dead!"
In the room, everyone's faces were as white as paper in an instant, and there was a long silence in the dim light, and the wine bag on a man's neck suddenly fell to the ground, and the soft sound of the clatter was particularly eye-catching and harsh in the quiet night and in the room, the man's lips trembled a little, and his eyes became incredulous.
"The third one is dead?Scar, don't give me the, that cowardly guy can die?!"
Everyone also couldn't believe it, but these words came out of the mouth of their eldest brother, who had always been unsmiling, and it was almost an ironclad fact.
The middle-aged woman who had been cold-faced at the back stepped forward a few steps, grabbed the dagger-like knife on the table, glanced at it, and looked around blankly.
"It's the third brother's red blue knife, this is something more important than his life!"
Everyone was silent again, several brothers and sisters were like brothers and sisters, and they knew very little about each other's affairs, their third brother's weapon was left to him by his wife when she died of a serious illness, and he didn't leave his body when he ate and slept, but now it appeared here, the answer is self-evident, their third brother was killed, this is a sure fact.
But they were in a sad mood, but they couldn't figure it out, the third brother who was so fast that he couldn't even catch up with the eldest brother of the half-step Martial King, how could he say that he would die, he had been engaged in intelligence work for more than ten years, and he had never missed under the nose of the Martial King, but ......
"Who did it?!"
The middle-aged man who fell to the ground said in a deep voice, no one could see his gloomy and frightening face when he bowed, he used to always scold the third child for being cowardly and afraid, but he didn't want to be a good big living person and say that it would be gone, he was not stupid, how could a mercenary who begged for a living on the sword all year round die in the hands of this puppet-like corpse, except for someone who arranged artificial pit killing, he would never agree with the second possibility!
Demonic beasts? Let's not say that there are no high-level demonic beasts around that can threaten them, but there are, they can't detect the slightest movement in a battle of that scale? The supreme strong man suppressed and killed, he admitted that he did not rule out this possibility, but in the human race, few forces dared not to give them the face of the mercenary world, even if they were just small mercenary groups on the periphery, even if the base camp of the mercenary world was in Senluo and not in Nanchuan, but not long ago, the young master who had been away for many years returned to Senluo, and the position of the four emperors of the mercenary world directly became the two of the five emperors now , plus a Senluo princess, the entire Senluo or the human race, no one dares to underestimate the mercenary world.
Because the two new emperors of the mercenary world are very young, they have grown up, and they have influenced not only the pattern of a domain, but the pattern of the human race and even the pattern of the continent. It is true that the young master of Sen Luo is very weak, but there is no shortage of people in the world who dare to invest, and those big families and big forces are willing to send supreme powerhouses to act as the protectors of these people, even if they have ghosts, but who dares to really disturb the royal bloodline owner of a domain, some things, the name is not right, even if there is an objection, you have to plan slowly, and this process may be completely enough for a young king to rise.
"Second, calm down, our Nine Swords Mercenary Regiment is just a third-level mercenary group, the third is dead, no one feels good, Black Widow, I called you here because my third brother's wife is your sister, and you are also his relative, plus he has been with us for so long, and his position will be taken over by you in the future, but the manpower has to find a new way, hey, what are you talking about, it's not clear whether we can survive tomorrow." β
Everyone didn't speak, and the atmosphere was a little stiff, and then a younger voice said calmly: "Commander, brothers, I think we seem to be involved in something." Do you remember the reason why we came here? Mercenary World's Beacon Order! I always felt that it was not that a mercenary group was in a desperate situation, but that their group of people had already been wiped out by the group, and they were robbed of the beacon order, so as to set up a trick to trick us, these small mercenary groups in the vicinity, rushed over to support!
King Kong Mercenary Group, the guy we saw on the road who only had half a life left was their leader, he was the cultivation of the Martial King, and the team composed of the team members he was killed by the pit is the mercenary group with the highest mission completion rate in our world, and a team except for the leader of the half-life group, none of the others survived, which is strange in itself!
Also, although the top combat power of that magic blade mercenary group is not very good, but half mage and half martial artist, such a combination has both explosive endurance, and the comprehensive combat power is at least two to three times that of ours, but they also look like they are lost and frightened, seventy or eighty people run away when they see us, something is wrong!
Finally, those third-level mercenary groups that are more powerful than us have all suffered heavy casualties, but our group of people not only did not really break their muscles and bones, but even absorbed the fugitives to some extent, and this is what makes me the most uneasy, as if there are a pair of strange eyes around us all the time quietly watching us!"
