Whether this plan can succeed or not, to be honest, Arrow doesn't have much in his heart.

Could a battle-hardened warrior fall for his own little scheme? What if I don't act well or make a mistake and is seen out?

Although he has invested a lot of money in order to act in this play, although his own education is also to say that "the battle on the battlefield is a continuation of the political struggle, and the political struggle is the continuation of the financial struggle".

It stands to reason that whichever side spends more money on the battle and spends it more reasonably, then the better the chance of victory for that side.

But then again, look at the ten people in the Iron Wolf Guild who are already equipped with weapons, helmets, and even boots. As the guild leader, Wolf's backpack is full of emergency items, right? Aren't these also combat consumption? In terms of the amount of money spent on this battle, this Wolf is no less than he spends himself.

So, he really doesn't have much self-confidence.

If all his plans and arrangements turn out to be just a clumsy scam by a fledgling yellow-haired girl, then tonight ...... It may really be his own death.

"President!"

While speeding up, Brad in the back couldn't help it, ran up and asked-

"What's going on? Who are we going to save? ”

"Saving Cream is also saving ourselves."

After that, Arrow briefly said his analysis of the Iron Wolf Guild, and finally said-

"The Iron Wolf Guild will never give up, and after they kill Cream, the next target is our guild. That Merlin wouldn't allow too many people to know about the fact that gold could actually be produced in that mine. And after killing us, his next goal is probably to destroy the Iron Wolf Guild. But before we do that, we need to save ourselves. ”

Coco hugged the dead branch and quickened her pace, she ran breathlessly, the dark red cloak behind her fluttering under her running. It does seem a little weird.

"But...... Brother President, why...... You don't tell us the truth? And...... What are your plans for this time...... What is it? I'm not ...... Understand ......"

Running out of Pelican Town, the sparkling forest to the east looks like it's just around the corner.

Arrow slowed down so that the two of them could maintain enough energy to deal with the next thing, and said as he walked briskly, "The reason why I didn't accept Cream's commission last night is that I really wanted to use this matter to tell you two. Our guild is not a mercenary, and we must not casually open the mouth of 'killing'. You must remember this to me at all times and at all times. ”

"On the other hand, if you want to deceive your enemy, you must first deceive your own people. Wolf is a cunning hungry wolf, and his ferocity is enough to make my scalp tingle just by listening to the description. If I want to defeat him, I'll have to create a chance where he's absolutely invincible, and we're ready for anything. ”

"So I'm not going to tell you what I think, Wolf seems to have really believed me. In order to prevent Cream from running too far, they will go after Cream first, and then come back to kill us after killing Cream. Wolf thought he was going to surprise us tonight, so we had to give him a surprise first. ”

Approaching the forest, Arrow stopped first and pricked up his ears to listen. After making sure that there was no ambush near the forest, he took a big breath.

"Watch out for the traps I laid out, do you know the markings?"

Coco and Brad nodded, and Arrow immediately took out the four bottles of potion from his pocket, giving one bottle of magic aerosol to Coco, and the other three bottles for himself, confirming that he could take them out and throw them at the target he needed to heal whenever and wherever he wanted. When everything is ready......

"Let's go!"

The Mermaid Song Guild enters the forest, and this will be their first guild battle, and they will face an enemy far superior to their own!

Can this battle really be won?

Now, we can only hope and be cautious.

————

Entering the forest, Airo cautiously made his way to the place where the first trap had been laid. At the same time, his ears were not idle, and at the slightest hint of wind and grass, he felt his heart beat out nervously!

Rub forward, lower your body, and let the bushes and leaves obscure you.

It was already afternoon, and the slanting rays of the sun had diminished the flickering light in the forest, and in addition to providing more places to hide, Arrow felt that the shadows were getting thicker.

"Huh?!"

Suddenly, Brad, who was at the front of the line, suddenly stopped. He lay on the ground, turned his head and looked at Arrow behind him a little nervously, and made some random gestures.

"(whispering) The smell of blood ......!"

Arrow, who was also lying on his stomach, nodded, and slowly climbed a few steps forward, parting a bush of grass.

A bright red liquid stained the trunks of the trees around them, and a member of the Iron Wolf Guild died here with a twisted expression over his neck. He had a trap stuck in his foot, apparently killed the moment he was incapacitated.

"There are nine more."

Seeing the corpse of the iron wolf, Arrow was both happy and worried. This means that Cream and Wolf are likely to face each other head-on, and how will he deal with the remaining nine by himself?

"President, that thing...... Here it comes. ”

Just as Iero was observing, Brad on the side gently nudged Eero's arm.

Arrow looked up and saw two slimes crawling towards him, and it seemed that the smell of blood was always so tempting for monsters.

Boom ——!

At this moment, an explosion suddenly sounded from the depths of the forest!

The people in the Mermaid Song couldn't help but look away and look in the direction where the explosion came from. The once quiet forest was as calm as ever after the explosion. If you look down slightly, you can see that some slimes are crawling in the direction of the explosion, as if they are rushing towards a rich and delicious buffet!

"Let's go, we're going to pick up the pace."

Brad nodded, took the fanged shield in his hand from behind his back, lifted the hammer in his hand, and took the lead. Coco also quickly summoned the undead soldiers to follow. Parfay flew out of Brad's pocket to scout, and soon beckoned to the crowd to move forward.

Continuing deeper into the forest, a moment later, the corpse of another Iron Wolf Guild member with a trap on his feet lay to the side.

It's just that unlike the previous one-knife killing, this member obviously went through a struggle before finally dying. What made Arrow's brow furrow in particular was the long sword in the corpse's hand, which was already stained with blood.

"That thief is injured, (goblin) Parfay! Where are they?! ”

Parfay nodded, simply flew out from between the branches and into the air, and after observing for a while, quickly returned to Brad's shoulder, raised his hand and pointed ahead: "(Fairy words) It's not far ahead!" It's close! They don't know what they're fighting against! ”

It looks like the plan has worked, at least, more than half of it!

Without further ado, Arrow reached out and put his hand on Brad and Coco's shoulders and whispered-

"Remember what I told you last night about the rule that you can't kill casually?"

Brad, Coco: "Well, remember. ”

"Good. Of course, we shouldn't have reached out to this mercenary work, but ......"

Arrow patted the shoulders of the two of them heavily, and said with a serious face-

"If someone wants to do us badly, even to kill us, then we have to get rid of them out of defence. So, don't have any psychological pressure, we are defensive, we are to save people, we are to protect all the people and things we cherish, so this is a righteous battle! ”

Brad's expression, which was originally a little solemn, suddenly became energetic, and he nodded seriously, the confusion in his heart had been completely swept away! And Coco also clenched the staff in his hand and nodded very surely.

"Okay, let's go!"

Boosting the morale of his teammates, Arrow was the first to separate the grass and walk forward. Soon, the smell of blood in the air became stronger. Screaming and scolding could be heard faintly, but it was clear that it wasn't from Cream.

"Hell! What's going on with this forest? How can there be so many slimes?! ”

In the distance, Iroh saw an Iron Wolf member roaring, he raised his bow and shot an arrow that pierced through the body of a slime and pinned it to the dirt behind him, but could not stop the surrounding slimes from continuing to rush towards him.

When I looked closely, I saw that there were already three iron wolf members lying on the ground, and the slimes around them were constantly pouring towards these iron wolf members like a tide, and even they were completely unafraid of any attack, and they were crazy to pounce on these members.

"Uh......h Wow! ”

One of the members let out a scream, and the two Iron Wolf members who were fighting the slime here looked back to see a large slime stuck to his back, but in a few seconds, the leather armor on his body had been bitten out of a hole, and the pain of the direct corrosion of his back muscles made him roll on the ground like crazy.

"Get up! Hurry up! ”

One of the members tried to pull him, but before he could get closer, the slimes around him pounced like hyenas smelling blood! In an instant, the Iron Wolf member was pressed underneath, and after just a minute, the member didn't move.

"There's a quirk in this forest...... There's definitely quirkiness here! Help me...... Top dog! Help me! ”

The remaining two Iron Wolf members screamed, and the weapons in their hands shook a little uncontrollably.

Arrow crouched behind the grass and looked at the corpses that were gradually covered in slimes, and a feeling of unbearability came to his mind.

But he shook his head and suppressed the feeling.

"President...... What's going on? ”

Brad held his shield and looked at the slimes who passed by him, but were not at all interested in him.

Arrow said slowly, "That gold coin has finally worked. ”

Brad: "Huh? President, I don't even know, so you can even buy a slime with money? ”

Arrow ignored him, just kept observing. More and more slimes gathered around, but there was no sign of the Slime King.

Therefore, let's wait for the two Iron Wolf members to fall.

Arrow is patient, and he knows that patience sometimes offers rewards.

However, patience can sometimes lead to unexpected troubles.

Just as one of the Iron Wolf members was pounced on by a slime on his knee, a flash of fire flashed through a gap in the woods in the distance, grazing the slime with such accuracy that it burned to death from dehydration.

"Take all your armor off!"
