Chapter XIV Notes
Since she agreed in her heart to let Charles help, Ji Na also took Charles and the others to a meeting room without a little delay.
After a faint glance at Charles, she turned and walked up to the second floor of the small building, and after a while walked down with a roll of maps and a pile of materials.
After spreading these things out on the table in the center of the living room, several people gathered around them, carefully looking at the map and the materials in their hands.
"This map is a detailed map of the vicinity of Egda City, and the information in your hand is the information of the mission that the regiment commander took on this time."
Charles quickly scanned the information in his hand and put it aside, and after glancing at the map on the table, Charles's eyes finally fell on a place name.
"Falling Star Valley."
"Yes, Falling Star Valley." Hearing this word, a trace of consternation obviously flashed on Alicia's face, while Gina looked at Charles with an unchanged face, "Our regiment leader was originally ready to give up this mission, but because the Falling Star Valley is too dangerous, few people who have been in it have always come out. ”
"Then why did your regiment commander still bring people in, didn't he say that he was ready to give up this mission?" Charles glanced up at Gene, confused.
"Because the person who asked our head to issue this mission is kind to our mercenary group, and," Ji Na paused slightly, a trace of chagrin and regret flashed in her eyes, "and the reward for the mission is extremely generous"
Hearing this, Charles would not be clear, it was nothing more than because the remuneration was too rich, which blinded the head of the regiment. If it weren't for the presence of people from the Xingyao Mercenary Group in front of him, I'm afraid that a mocking smile would have been directly on his face, but at this time, he was just disdainful in his heart, and he didn't show it to stimulate these mercenaries.
Ji Na obviously knew that her commander's decision this time was too embarrassing, as a regiment commander, it was obvious that he had to know that he was two pounds, and he estimated his own strength to take on the task, and those mercenaries who were not self-sufficient had basically died outside.
"I also persuaded our regimental commander, but I don't know why, Patrick, who used to be very sensible, suddenly became extremely rigid and self-righteous this time, and insisted on taking this task in the face of the opposition of many people in the regiment, and said that it was a job to tie his head to his belt, and what were he afraid of."
"Neither I nor the people left here are in favor of the mission, and some of them quit the mercenary group when Patery made the decision. However, Patrick still took most of the group to the Valley of the Fallen Stars, and sure enough, our initial fears came true, they had been missing for so long. ”
Listening to what Ji Na said, a trace of gloom flashed in the eyes of several mercenaries around them, their companions had been missing for dozens of days, and it was obvious that even they no longer had any expectations in their hearts.
"What is the place in the Falling Star Valley that you are talking about, and why do you have a look of fear on your face when you talk about it." Suddenly, a cold voice sounded in the room, and everyone looked up to find that it was Artoria who spoke, much to the surprise of Gina and them.
This girl who has been silently following Charles, if it weren't for her unique temperament and resolute eyes that made Gina dare not underestimate her, I am afraid that most people would only notice her stunning appearance.
However, when everyone began to discuss things, Artoria did not speak, and naturally ignored her, until she opened her mouth, and everyone realized that the girl's voice was so pleasant and crisp, and the ethereal voice kept vibrating in her chest and seeping into her heart.
Gina knew that Charles and Artoria were from the continent outside of Dabris, so she was relatively unfamiliar with some dangerous places in Dabris. However, she was still a little puzzled at first, because the strange and dangerous place of the Falling Star Valley is also very rare on the mainland, and it is also a little famous on the mainland, but she thought that Charles said that he brought Artoria out to practice, it should be because he had too little experience, so he didn't hear of it.
"Falling Star Valley, the place where the gods fell."
A trace of astonishment flashed on Artoria's cold face when she heard this, which made the hearts of the few mercenaries who were standing aside and secretly paying attention to her tremble slightly.
Gods, coming to this world for more than a month, Artoria is naturally not so ignorant of this world, she knows that gods really exist in this world, and they are high, and the gods have the ability to be immortal in legends, and they will fall?
Artoria turned her head to look at her teacher in disbelief, only to see Charles nodding slightly to her, which made Artoria's heart ripple, it turned out that the gods are not immortal, but will fall.
"It is rumored that a long time ago, there was a tragic war on the continent of Iris, and the gods of the kingdom of God in the clouds came to this world one after another, and the evil demons and devils below also formed a coalition army, and the gods led all the races on the continent and the army of the Hell Abyss to start a war that shook the world and the world, and in the war, several gods fell, and it is said that the Valley of the Fallen Star was formed by the corpses of the gods falling from the sky into a valley."
"At the same time that the corpse of the god fell into the valley, the star that represented its fate also fell into this valley for some unknown reason, forming the Valley of the Falling Stars."
"In the Valley of the Falling Stars, legend has it that because of the residual power of the corpse of the gods and the influence of the star that represents its destiny, the four elements of water, wind and fire in the entire valley are rioting, thundering and lightning, and people walking into it in addition to avoiding these, because of the suppression of the power of the gods, their strength can only be exerted eighty percent."
"And inside, it's easy to lose your sense of direction and self-perception, the former can make you lose your way in the valley, and the latter can make you lose your mind and become a walking corpse."
After listening to Ji Na's words, Artoria Juanxiu's brows furrowed slightly, she was very puzzled, since it was so dangerous, didn't the leader of the Star Glory Mercenary Regiment know that he might not be able to get paid for that mission.
"The publisher of the mission said that the things required by the mission are only on the periphery of the Falling Star Valley, and although it is said that it is also very dangerous, there are many people who have entered and come out alive." Jina noticed the puzzled look on Artoria's face, and explained, "And maybe the Falling Star Valley was really formed because of the fall of the god's corpse and its destiny star, even those who have only entered the periphery and come out alive will be more sensitive to the power of the rules, and their strength will be greatly improved." ”
A trace of bitterness flashed on Ji Na's face, "Actually, another reason why our head of the regiment will take most of the people in the group into the Falling Star Valley is because it is possible to improve your strength there. ”
"Huh?" Charles raised his eyebrows slightly, there are many ways to improve his strength, although most of them need to be accumulated over time, but what kind of circumstances actually force the leader of a large mercenary group to have such a compulsive desire to improve his strength.
A trace of helplessness and anger flashed in Ji Na's eyes, "It's because a new large mercenary group has suddenly risen in Agra City recently, the Red Scorpion Mercenary Group. ”
