Chapter 64: The Autumn Wind in the Mountains and Forests

Zachary wasn't sure if he wanted to do that, as it would make innocent orc civilians suffer what they shouldn't have to suffer. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

They could have enjoyed a good time for nearly five years, although in five years their lives would also be shrouded in the darkness of the evil forces of the Western Continent, but after all, it was also five years, and once he unlocked the seal of the passage, their lives would all be changed.

"Do you give up the lives of a few people in order to save more lives......

"What are you muttering about, Zachary?" Joanna, who was walking beside Zackery on a colt, asked suspiciously, when she heard him talking to himself alone.

"No, it's nothing, it's getting nearly evening, let's go to the town in front of us to rest first."

Facing the comfortable autumn breeze, Zachary drove his mount to the town not far away, where smoke had risen, staring at Zachary's back for a while, Joanna shook her head helplessly, even though she knew Zachary better than the others, sometimes even she didn't know what he was thinking.

On an October morning in Santos, the autumn breeze beats through the leaves, and when the morning light illuminates the world without hesitation, the Andes town begins to come alive.

The life of the townspeople of this town is simple and simple, the sun rises and the sun sets, and they rely on the gifts of the goddess of nature and the blessing of the goddess of harvest, and live a simple but contented life.

Of course, its location under the Andes Mountains has made this town populated with mercenary groups who want to explore the mystical mountains or accept missions to do things.

And these foreign mercenaries also bring a touch of the outside to this quiet town, so that the townspeople who live here can get outside news that the orc army is attacking their kingdom of Reiner, and the kingdom's valiant soldiers are protecting them at the border with their weapons and robes.

The town, which was in the harvest season, was filled with the sweet smell of wheat, and smelling this smell, Zachary and the others had a comfortable sleep, but the previous period of military life had made them all accustomed to getting up early.

When the mercenaries of the same hotel were still asleep, the four of them were already standing in the courtyard of the hotel, getting used to it was a terrible thing, while waving the long sword in his hand, Zachary sighed in his heart, two and a half months of army life, so that Joanna and Raphael were already like Amy, accustomed to the army's schedule.

After eating the breakfast made by the hotel, Zachary and the others saw the mercenaries entering the lobby from their rooms in groups of three or five, enjoying a Santos-style breakfast, but unlike Zachary's leisure, the mercenaries were extremely fast.

Because the Andes Mountains are a dangerous place in winter, although many large creatures will fall into hibernation due to the cold, the lack of food in the winter also makes those who do not hibernate in the mountains and forests more aggressive due to hunger and cold.

Therefore, whether it is a mercenary who wants to explore to find ancient ruins or go to the mountains and forests to complete the task of his employer, they will not want to risk great dangers in the cold wind to go into the mountains and forests.

And what Zachary wants to do is to find a mercenary team to serve as their guide, and Zachary doesn't know much about the environment around Santos.

When Zachary arrived here with his start-up team, the beautiful town of Santos had already turned into a living hell. Dias's group of madmen has turned this peaceful and peaceful town into a hell of demons, countless dark creatures walk in it, vampires, necromancers, undead knights, skeleton soldiers, zombies, and more.

At the same time, countless evil soldiers were pouring out of the mountains and forests behind the town, and the huge number made the defense line of the good camp arranged around Santos vulnerable, and Zachary had no chance or time to wander around because he could only barely struggle on the defense line under the force of the evil forces, until the whole line was defeated.

However, the player has studied the passage countless times, both in terms of location and the condition of the seal, and Zachary knows it well, and all he needs is a guide who is familiar with the surrounding mountain environment.

It's just that although there is a seal, there will always be a trace of the dark magic of the Western Continent escaping from the passage, which makes the creatures in that place full of aggression, and even the demonic demonic beasts unique to the Western Continent of the city, those demonic demonic beasts that have lost their minds are also a means of harassment that are often released when the Western Continent invades the Eastern Continent.

So, when Zachary asked the mercenary squad if anyone would be willing to take them to that valley, they all glanced at Zachary with idiotic eyes.

Zachary has a peaceful and mysterious temperament, which makes these mercenaries think that this is a noble descendant who has nothing to do and wants to go out on an adventure, and Joanna and Raphael, who followed him, were regarded as his maids and attendants, and Amy, who was full of military temperament, was naturally the guard.

In the end, an old mercenary couldn't stand it anymore, and shouted to Zachary, who was still looking for someone to ask: "Boy, that valley is too dangerous, it is full of crazy and powerful monsters, I don't know how many mercenaries have gone in for so many years, not only have they not found anything good, but they have also suffered heavy losses, so no one will go there now." Boy, I advise you to go home and stay well, the outside world is not as passionate and exciting as you think. ”

Obviously, the old mercenary was quite famous in the area around Santos, and when he heard him say this, the other mercenaries in the hotel also smiled kindly and persuaded Zachary to give up the idea of going there.

Unfortunately, Zachary had to go there, even if he wasn't sure if he wanted to do it, but he could make a decision when he got there.

So Zachary nodded thankfully at the old mercenary whose face was covered with dust marks, but still said firmly: "Thank you for your concern, elder, but I have a reason why I have to go there, boy." "Having experienced a lot in the game, Zachary knows that the necessary respect for the elderly with a lot of experience must be maintained.

Glancing at all the mercenaries in the lobby, Zachary smiled and said the price that made these mercenaries excited: "I just need someone to be a guide to take me to the valley, and you can come back when you get there, I don't need you to accompany me in, and the reward is thirty Manzani gold coins." ”

Zakary's offer made the mercenaries in the hall excited, but the danger of the valley made them dare not take risks easily, after all, if they have money, they must have this life to spend, and in that valley where they don't know what happened, countless seniors in the mercenary world have already used their lives to tell them that there is not only a treasure, but a crisis.

Looking at the silent lobby, the old mercenary finally stood up, and he sighed helplessly, "Boy, I don't know if you have any reason to go, but since you gave me a price that I like, I will take this task, and I just took your mercenary money and I have enough money to settle my life after retirement." ”

"Thank you for your help, Elder, you just need to take us out of the valley, and I will pay you half of your commission in advance." Zachary knew that the old man didn't really need to take over his task, but he saw that no one dared to take it, and he looked like he had to go, so he came up to take over.

But seeing that he had finally found his guide, Zachary was a little relieved, and looked up in the direction of the valley, where perhaps the gate to hell would be opened.
