Chapter 42: The Warrior Monk

Since there is no direct passage out of the city in the XC area, the teams of the three chambers of commerce must go to the SC area to meet, and the "Black Crow" legion in charge of the city defense will routinely inspect the team when they go out of the city, which consumes a lot of time, and by the time the whole team has completely crossed the city gate, the whole morning has passed.

As a city built on a hill, Noxus is naturally impeccable in terms of city defense, and this unique geographical location will make any invading enemy despair, but the rugged mountain roads caused great trouble for the caravanserans, and the whole team had to travel slowly on the narrow mountain roads.

Darius rode at the front of the group, and in addition to the two professional scouts, these two men looked like veterans of the army, their rough hands were full of calluses from holding swords for many years, and the posture of riding horses was straightforward, revealing a military style. A redfeather eagle hovered over their heads, a pet of one of them, capable of spotting enemies up to three miles away.

This method is comparable to the detection spells of the spellcasters.

The Noxian city-state is located on the southwest side of the Alabachi Mountains, and there are no monsters on this section of the mountain road, and for a long time, the Noxian soldiers have carried out repeated excavations in this mountainous area to ensure the absolute safety of this area. The mountains in the distance were like fangs piercing the sky, and the sharp peaks were not as gentle as the Orstow mountains, but more like this country, cold and dangerous.

Although the mountain road is steep, there is nothing more beautiful for the residents of the dark and damp XC District than to return to the sun, even the vast deep valley and the birds of prey circling among the mountains and forests are so kind. Darius took a deep breath, the earthy and grassy air was by no means comparable to the damp and dreary air of XC.

"What do you call you?"

A sudden sound drew Darius's gaze, and an unusually strong man rode up to his side.

"I'm Valek Oglund, the leader of the Soul Burner Mercenary Regiment, hired by the three chambers of commerce, our mercenary group undertook this escort mission, in order to ensure the safety of this trip, I think it would be better for everyone to get to know each other."

The man, Valek, was unarmed, and Darius noticed that his arms were very thick, with mysterious tattoos from his shoulders all the way to the backs of his hands, and white strips of cloth wrapped around his hands tightly.

This is a warrior monk.

The profession of warrior monk originated in distant Ionia, where ascetics revered nature, focused on developing the strength of the body, and took the skills of hand-to-hand combat to the extreme, but the average warrior monk still used weapons, such as flails, long sticks, etc., and only high-level warriors who specialized in boxing would only wrap strips of cloth around their hands instead of wearing finger tigers or fist gloves, which meant that they were extremely confident in their fist and body, and the clenched fists could burst out with incredible power.

The warrior monk is not a profession suitable for the battlefield, but in a one-on-one duel, the difficulty and ferocity of the warrior monk will be fully reflected, their mastery of the force is superb, and they can even cause damage to the human body through the armor, they are also very dominant in the face of the caster, in the boring training day after day, their will is extremely firm, most of the charm and control spells are ineffective against them, the tattoos on his arms are not ordinary tattoos, that is the magic resistance rune, the warrior monk's spell resistance is amazing, The mage of the low ring met the warrior monk in addition to despair or despair.

Darius knew in his heart that the other two chambers of commerce did not carry escorts, but spent money to find mercenaries to ensure safety, and this group of mercenaries combined with more than one hundred and thirty people, naturally dominated the command of the entire team escort team.

"My name is Darius, and I'm the deputy leader of the Tamur Chamber of Commerce, you should go to our team leader, Hermes, he is the one who makes the decision."

"I've already spoken to him, and he has no objection to my command, but don't worry, we've been around for many years, and we have a lot of experience going to the south, so we won't mess around. I came to you mainly to see what you want from the job? ”

Darius nodded, since Hermes had no opinion, it was impossible for him not to disapprove.

"I'm a black knight, I'm not very good at things like reconnaissance and shooting, these two next to me are definitely much better than me in this aspect, you can consider me in a frontal assault."

"Okay, I got it." Valek smiled, and rode to the front of the group, and as the leader of the whole team, he had to be at the forefront at all times.

After traveling for almost an hour, Darius finally saw a flat open field in his eyesβ€”they were at the foot of the mountain.

Dozens of villages and towns in the vicinity of Noxus are covered by green farmland to ensure the daily needs of the large number of city dwellers, and along the way you can see a large number of farmers transporting agricultural products to the city on donkey carts or ox carts.

Here the road began to widen, and Valek asked the party to stop and trim it, the narrow mountain path dragged the group too long, and the warrior monk asked for the group to move closer, and after regrouping, the team began to move on again.

Valek deliberately slowed down a step, rode side by side with Darius, and then said: "There will be no problem on this part of the road, we can get to Nedberg before dark, and then set up camp there, after passing Nedburg, it will no longer be a plain, we will enter the wilderness and the mountains, and then we will have to be vigilant." ”

"But your strength is not weak, I can feel it, the strength of the silver rank, no wonder you are the deputy leader of your team at such a young age."

Darius vaguely felt that this warrior monk seemed to be interested in him, and it was not appropriate for him not to say anything, so he said: "Compared with the real powerhouse, I am still far behind. ”

"Coming out this time is not only a mission, but also a test."

"You're too modest, at your age, I don't have the strength of you." Valek smiled and pulled out the jug, took a sip, and handed it to Darius.

"Do you want to taste it? The specialty of my hometown, green pine wine, is soft and heavy, with an endless aftertaste. ”

Darius looked at this warrior monk with some surprise, alcohol is not a good thing for mercenaries, it doesn't matter if they get drunk after the mission, but they are now a convoy, and drinking alcohol is not appropriate.

However, he took the kettle and took a sip, and sure enough, as he said, the sweet fruity aroma mixed with the heavy alcohol gave off a strange taste in his mouth.

He returned the kettle to the warrior monk and hesitated for a moment, but then asked, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of being a good wine, but aren't you worried that it will affect your work?" ”

"Haha, I know what you want to say, but there is no need to worry about this, as you can see, I am a warrior monk specializing in boxing, and the boxing method I am practicing now is more special, pay attention to static braking, overcome rigidity with softness, punch whimsically, leave no traces, in a slightly drunk state, it is easier to enter the artistic conception of great ingenuity."

Hearing Valek's words, Darius felt like ten thousand alpacas running through him, and it took him great perseverance to keep himself calm on the surface, and he even wondered if he had heard it wrong.

What the hell is this?

Drunken boxing?
