Chapter 64: The Terrible Netherworld Ghost Path
Erin's heart chuckled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Sure enough, it was mentioned.
Erin gritted her teeth, a terror in her eyes.
Everything that happened in the "Nether Ghost Path", those once terrifying memories, and the unsettling cold aura that followed, made her reluctant to think about it.
The experiences of two years ago, the mountains of corpses and the sticky dark red pools of blood, the man who seemed to have come out of the depths of hell, the magnetic voice full of male charm, made her never forget it in her life.
She had thought that with his departure, the "Netherworld Path" had become a labyrinth of peace. I didn't expect that to happen earlier today.
Two living people disappeared less than five meters away from her, and she didn't feel it at all!
Could it be that he's back again?
Erin suddenly felt a stirring and trembled.
She said in a slightly trembling voice, "Your Excellency, Hank and Barton are not in our hands. ”
Gavin's soul fire throbbed violently.
The tremor of Erin's voice did not escape his perception.
The fear in the other party's eyes did not escape his eyes.
What's going on?
Gavin didn't take the initiative to ask, but said lightly: "Since that's the case, then there's nothing to talk about." ”
"I'll get out of here, and I hope we'll never see each other again."
Retreat.
He slowly backed away, gesturing to leave.
"Your Excellency!"
After he took a few steps back, Erin's voice finally came: "Hank and Barton really aren't in our hands. For some reason, they suddenly disappeared. This is our negligence. We are willing to pay the price of two hundred gold coins for this. ”
Two hundred gold coins.
A fox and a kobold are not worth the price at all.
Two hundred gold coins are enough to buy 20 sturdy human slaves, enough to hire a hundred kobolds to work for themselves for three years.
Erin thought she had paid a high enough price.
But she responded with a sneer.
"Two hundred gold coins? Are you passing the ragged beggars of the slums? ”
Gavin's tone made no secret of his sarcasm: "You have no idea what a price I have paid for those two slaves!" Even if you give me a thousand gold coins, I can't agree to it! ”
A thousand gold coins!
Even as a two-star adventurer of Erin, he can't afford such a price.
Her entire net worth is naturally more than that, but those are two very ordinary slaves, how can they be worth so much!
For a moment, she thought Gavin was fooling her.
It is to use this method to obtain higher compensation.
But then, she didn't think so.
Because she suddenly remembered that she seemed to sense a faint fire elemental energy in the body of that fox man Hank.
I didn't care about it at the time, but looking back now, I feel a little unusual.
That fox man seems to have a weak fire elemental physique!
If that's really the case, then the value of that fox man Hank is indeed ten times higher than that of an ordinary fox man.
Because this means that with a little training, Hank the Kitsune can be a good spellcaster, or a warrior or stalker with weak magical attack ability.
Although it is still not worth a thousand gold coins, it is normal for the other party to ask for a little more.
Erin held back the anger in her heart, flipped the money bag handed over by Annabelle, estimated the amount of gold coins in it by her feelings, and then lowered her posture and said, "Your Excellency, those two servants of yours have indeed disappeared. There are at least 1,200 gold coins in this purse, which I believe will be enough to compensate you for your losses. You can see our sincerity. The value of those two servants...... It can't be so many. ”
Erin threw the money bag twenty meters away.
This money bag itself is a dimensional bag, otherwise 1,500 gold coins (plus the previous 500 coins) must weigh thirty or forty pounds, and no one can carry such a heavy thing every day.
Gavin's eyes lingered on the purse for a second, then quickly moved away and returned to the archer.
He was thoughtful.
As the magic archer said, even if he improved his physique with the "Fire Elemental Physique Enhancement Potion", the fox Hank was not worth a thousand gold coins.
Barton's value is essentially negligible.
The remuneration given by the other party is indeed very high.
It is impossible for the other party to spend the price of 1,200 gold coins and keep a fox and a kobold, that is meaningless and not worth it.
It seems that Hank and Barton are really not in each other's hands!
So what happened before?
Could it be that it was because of the disappearance of Hank and Barton that the adventure team lost their bargaining chips, so they brazenly launched an attack?
But how could two living people suddenly disappear?
The strength of the magic archers is not weak, and the other members of the adventure team are not weak, who can take Hank and Barton from them?
Unless it is an adventure party with an average level of 6 or higher.
Or a Rank 3 or higher professional!
This has to be clarified!
Gavin said lightly, "How did Hank and Barton disappear?" Tell me, otherwise...... Nothing to talk about. ”
Gavin's attitude was tough.
The dark region does not believe in tears and weakness, and must show a tough enough attitude at all times, otherwise you will definitely be bullied by others.
Erin was silent for a moment.
If you want to clarify the disappearance of Hank and Barton, you will have to involve the "ghost path", and maybe even the cemetery, and the necromancer Andrew.
It's a big secret, can it be revealed?
Erin has to weigh the pros and cons.
I thought about it for a long time.
She finally spoke.
"Your Excellency Skeleton Mage."
There was still a trace of fear in Erin's voice, and there were not many things that could make a two-star adventurer like her fearful, which showed how terrible the "ghost path" was.
Erin said in a trembling voice, "Hank and Barton disappeared in the 'Ghost Path'. ”
"Ghost Path?" Gavin asked, "What is that place?" ”
Erin calmed down for a moment before explaining, "The 'Ghost Path' is a labyrinth deep underground, made up of countless passages, very ancient. There are a large number of undead entrenched there, especially the most ghosts. And there are quite a few ghosts in existence. The 'ghost path' is intricate...... It's very scary there. ”
"Terrible?" Gavin's voice grew colder, "If it's terrible, why are you going to go there?" ”
He was not satisfied with Erin's answer.
Because Erin didn't give him enough valuable information.
Erin hurriedly said, "There are a lot of dark creatures following us. We had to go into the ghost path and come here from deep underground. I know of a safe passage that I have walked many times before without any problems...... Who knew something would happen this time. ”
