Chapter Eighty-Nine: Ambition
Step, step, step......
The Norsid patrol guards who passed in front of the manor walked away with neat steps; And this former eldest young master of the Devaro family is still immersed in his own dreams-
Crystal ore, independent?!
What can't I do, what can the guy in front of me do, what can't I do for Lu?
I don't want to go to the family's black prison and be humiliated!
In the desert of the Yellow Sand District, even the people of the family are helpless!
With that crystal ore, I could live a different life!
……
The repeated reflections made the eyes of the former eldest young master of the Devaro family, who had been devastated since he left the Tower of Thorns, brighten more and more; He raised his head and said very firmly to the sand fox himself: "I am willing to cooperate with Your Excellency!" ”
"I assure you, it's the wisest choice for you!"
Shahu smiled and stretched out his hand, shaking it hard with the young man in front of him.
……
"Boss, is it necessary to play with that shit?"
In the hall, a dark mercenary who was looking at the situation outside couldn't help but raise his eyebrows - in his opinion, a waste-like existence like Valan was not worth befriending his own head at all, and it was completely a matter of understanding.
"It wasn't necessary before, but now it's necessary!"
The gloating dark mercenary from before squinted and said, "If it weren't for that bastard quail, who disrupted the leader's arrangement by acting cleverly and forced us to plan ahead of time, there would be no need for the head to say so much to this waste!" ”
"Crystal ore? Hum! ”
Snorted coldly. The dark mercenary turned and walked down the hall.
"If there is a crystal ore. Do you still need to plan such an adventure? ”
The dark mercenary who was the first to ask also snorted coldly. full of sarcasm looked at the waste standing in front of his head in the distance, looking excited; Then, he spat hard on the ground: "Damn, blame that bastard quail, don't let me catch him; Otherwise, I will let him understand what is called a dilemma of life and death! ”
"Let's go and get ready, the boss will let us prepare it before dinner!"
"I know it!"
The dark mercenary who got a reminder. also turned around and walked towards the hall - for a dark mercenary, the so-called preparation is not as troublesome as imagined, except for a few special people, most of the dark mercenaries will have all their weapons and equipment on their bodies, even if they sleep, they will not leave their hands; Therefore, this so-called preparation is nothing more than checking whether the equipment and combat performance of the carry-on equipment are in good condition.
And such an inspection is not destined to take long, about ten minutes or so. Including the two dark mercenaries who had been monitoring the former young master of the Devaro family, they all reappeared in the hall; The six of them looked at each other. They each picked a place in the hall, and in the most comfortable position, closed their eyes, and pretended to sleep—obviously, tonight's battle would be a vicious battle, and although they had their leader's detailed plans as an aid, there were not many places to fight, and it would not work without abundant physical strength and energy.
And from the bottom of their hearts, they don't trust the so-called help very much, although they are also the top ten organizations in the dark mercenary world, but they have been operating in the two regions of Dry Forest and Yellow Sand, and they don't have much friendship with other organizations, but have a lot of conflicts of interest - peers are enemies, and it is definitely not a lie; Especially among the dark mercenaries, this sentence is even more reasonable, even if they are far away in the dry forest and yellow sand; After all, the Death Desert in the Yellow Sands District is a forbidden place for life, but it is also a place where many treasures and strange things exist, and every year there are rewards for those treasures and strange things.
In this regard, as a person from the Shahu Organization, I didn't care about it at first, but when a few dark mercenaries began to accept tasks in the two areas of the dry forest and yellow sand with great fanfare, everyone in the sand fox organization couldn't sit still, and a few of the short-tempered ones took direct action and killed those dark mercenaries - in the eyes of the sand fox organization, the two areas of the dry forest and yellow sand are their own territory, and only they can accept any task, even if they don't accept the task, they need to make a clear statement. before they can be handed over to other dark mercenaries.
A dark mercenary like this, who accepts the mission without paying attention to it, is undoubtedly a provocation for anyone in the Shahuzi organization.
However, these dark mercenaries who dare to do so naturally have their own capital; Although they are not among the top ten mercenary organizations in the dark mercenary ranking, they are still from the dark mercenary organization that is not weak; Therefore, it was very natural that a battle between dark mercenaries broke out - for this organization that hid in the dry forest and yellow sand, but ranked among the top ten dark mercenary organizations, many people were faintly unconvinced, so many dark mercenary organizations had the idea of taking advantage of the fire to rob and joined the battle.
And the result, naturally, is self-evident, the sand fox won the most victorious victory; However, this victory was not easy to come by - the sand foxboard, which originally had about 20 people, was reduced by more than 50 percent; This is naturally a major blow to the sand fox, which has always taken the route of elite soldiers; For several years in a row, it has not returned to its original strongest level; Therefore, for the dark mercenaries in the outside world, especially some organized dark mercenaries, no one in the sand fox will have a sense of reassurance, but all kinds of vigilance.
Especially if they want to make such a big plan tonight, if they completely believe the other party, they know very well that their side is definitely the result of the annihilation of the whole army.
Hey?!
Not long after the six of them fell asleep, almost at the same time the six opened their eyes and looked out—a black shadow, like a wisp of light smoke, drifted into the manor in the afternoon sun; The familiar aura made all six people present stand up.
Shadow?!
How did he come back!
Almost instantly, the six of them became serious—compared to the others, the shadows gave people a lukewarm sense of distance. However, the way the other party handles tasks and events is extremely reassuring; Even their leaders have said it. Leave everything to the shadows. As long as the shadow agrees, then it will be successful.
Now the Shadow did not receive the signal to return home, but ran back early, apparently something was wrong - of course, they did not know their leader, and did not tell the Shadow their exact address in Landenburg; Otherwise, they will be even more surprised; And as a qualified killer, the shadow naturally has its own cover. According to the results of the discussion with the Thousand Faces Monster a long time ago, as soon as he entered the manor, he looked at the Sandfox himself who was still in the garden and the six dark mercenaries in the hall.
"Boss?! And you?! ”
The shadow let out a low exclamation.
"Shadow, why are you here?"
Shahu himself looked at the subordinates in front of him with a little surprise - although he gave the other party a way to contact him, it was just a small trick, even if he was tracked, it was absolutely impossible to chase here; What's more, his little trick has not been activated yet, and it is even more impossible for the other party to track it here.
"It was the quail who brought me and the trolls here! Aren't the trolls here yet? ”
The shadow replied without changing his face, that kind of slightly innocent look, which can definitely be called superb acting.
"Quail? The quail who did something like that, do you believe him?! ”
The sand fox himself looked at the shadow suspiciously. The eyes of the six dark mercenaries in the hall were also suspicious—violating the leader's bottom line, even if it was the leader of a group. It's also useless, other people can directly ignore the other party's orders, and even take them down depending on the situation; They had guessed that after the quail had done something like that, he must have been kidnapped by the shadow and taken to the emergency base; However, judging from the words spoken by the shadow now, the situation is a little different.
"No, sir, did you arrange for the quail to make it?"
The shadow looked surprised, his eyes and face in disbelief, almost beyond words.
"What? Did I arrange it? ”
Shahu was stunned.
"yes, you see it's your sand fox mark!"
The shadow nodded, and, the next moment, took out a semicircular carving the size of Kimpton, on which there was a yellow fox, which was now emitting a faint white light—the carving itself was naturally not an imprint, and the faint white light was the key to distinguishing the authenticity.
This?!
After receiving the sand fox mark, the sand fox himself was stunned again - because this is indeed his sand fox mark Yes, that kind of magic aura completely echoes him.
"That day, the quail took out the Mark of the Sand Fox and said that he was ordered by you to clear out the traitors led by the Thousand-Faced Monster......"
The shadow looked at the somewhat stunned sand fox, and immediately spoke in detail according to the words that had been discussed with the Thousand Faces Monster in advance; At the same time, I secretly admired the level of alchemy and fraud of the Thousand Faces Monster in my heart - this sand fox mark was naturally made by the Thousand Faces Monster himself, although there was a guarantee from the other party at the beginning, but the shadow itself still had a trace of worry, for fear that the old and cunning Sand Fox himself in front of him would see that something was wrong, and until he saw the sluggish expression of the sand fox himself, he put his mind at ease this time, and had considerable confidence in the plan of the Thousand Faces Monster.
"Quail!!"
After listening to the shadow's detailed description, the voice squeezed straight out from between the teeth of the sand fox himself, and his eyes were even more murderous, and the six dark mercenaries all cursed in unison after looking at each other.
"Boss?"
The shadow pretended to be puzzled and looked at the sand fox himself in front of him.
"Shadow, you've been tricked by that damn bastard!"
The dark mercenary who had gloated before walked up to the shadow and gritted his teeth and said, "It's all a lie, everything is a lie from that bastard of quail!" ”
"But, it's the Mark of the Sand Fox......
The shadow still looked incredulous.
"The Sand Fox Mark is real!"
Taking a deep breath, Shahu himself smiled with a slightly gloomy face: "What a quail, even I have been deceived by him!" ”
"Before, Quail suggested that we join forces with other dark mercenary organizations to increase the success rate of this operation, but now ......" The dark mercenary standing in front of the hall with a gloating smile was startled, and suddenly remembered when their leader announced this plan. that quail's proposal; Immediately. A chill rose in his back.
"This guy Quail was recruited after our last big war. It's hard to guarantee that it won't be those guys' shadows! ”
The other dark mercenary obviously thought of something, and immediately said - in fact, except for the dark mercenaries who stayed in the manor, the rest of the people were all newcomers who were recruited after the war; It's just that, at this time, basically everyone selectively ignores this problem, and their eyes are now on the quail, the damn bastard in their opinion!
It's easy to understand, as if one person is suspicious of another. Then when this person looks at that person, whatever the latter does is premeditated or ill-intentioned in the eyes of the former, even if it is out of good intentions, the former will regard this as paralyzing his actions; Now, the dark mercenaries in the hall were induced by the shadow to have such thoughts about the quail.
"The trolls haven't come yet......"
At the right time, the shadow said with a hint of worry on his face - although the troll himself was not loved by anyone in the Shahu organization, but the whereabouts of the same organization were now unknown. Undoubtedly, it will be sad for the rabbit to die.
"It can effectively reduce our combat effectiveness, and those guys will naturally not be soft! And. Compared to trolls, Shadow is a better place to be a messenger! The gloomy face of the sand fox himself laughed in a low voice: "The reason why they want to send you back to ventilate the news, instead of directly raiding, is nothing more than to appreciate the situation where we are panicking and slowly waiting for death in fear!" ”
"Thoughts of Killing? Ha, what a ruthless and powerful method! ”
Shahu narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists involuntarily - the methods shown by the other party, Shahu is no stranger to it, the organization that is known as the most likely NO.1 among the dark mercenaries, isn't this what it likes to do the most?
As for what the other party is doing this?
There are so many reasons for this; Whether it is to eliminate dissidents or regain their prestige, they have this reason - the blow given by the supreme government last time has undoubtedly lost face to the idea of killing, and they naturally have to seize it if they have a chance to regain face.
And after the fact?
As long as there is an excuse that can be justified, it will be fine; Even if people know it, they will admit this excuse; In the Dark World, that's it, isn't it?
"Bastard!"
"Damn!"
The dark mercenaries present, including the shadows, all cursed at this moment; Of course, except for the shadow of knowing what is going on in the Dao, everyone else is sincere.
"Boss, fight with them!"
After several dark mercenaries finished scolding, they immediately shouted.
"What do you think they'll do on their own?"
After sand fox coldly scolded his subordinates, he continued: "With our identity, as long as the news is released at will, those demon hunters, the Supreme Government and the Holy See will rush up like hyenas that smell blood!" ”
"So what do we do now?"
After hearing Shahu's words, the dark mercenaries present couldn't help but be stunned, and then, all of them thought about this possibility, and then all of them gasped and looked at Shahu himself - obviously as the head of an organization, Shahu himself is still extremely qualified, at least, at a critical moment, he can be trusted by everyone.
"Withdraw! Back to the Yellow Sands, that's our home turf, and even if the Demon Hunters, the Supreme Government, and the Holy See go there, we'll have a way to deal with them to the end! ”
"Let's go now!"
Shahu said without any hesitation.
"Zhilu said, chief!"
Without hesitation, the dark mercenaries around them turned and walked out of the hall; And the sand fox himself walked towards the former young master of the Devaro family—for which none of the dark mercenaries noticed anything wrong; Whether it's killing people and killing people, or taking hostages to find a temporary shield for them, there are enough reasons; Coupled with the thought of facing the most powerful pursuit of Lorante's three parties, even the veterans of these dark mercenaries were in a trance in their hearts; Therefore, they did not notice the slightest thing wrong with their head.
Boom!
The sound of blades breaking through the air, seven scimitars appeared out of thin air, flashing towards their respective targets; A smear of blood appeared out of thin air, and the six dark mercenaries looked in disbelief at the scimitar flying in the air in front of them, and turned their bodies with all their might, and a trace of blood bubbles spurted out of their mouths, and they wanted to say something to their heads, but it was not only their throats that were cut, but also their vocal cords, so they could only fall to the ground in two questioning sounds of 'uh, uh', and after a short moment, there was no sound.
And because the shadow who had been prepared to escape the catastrophe had already been prepared, he distanced himself from the sand fox with a vigilant look, and in his hand, a silver thread like a hair was flashing with a strange light.
"Can you get out of the way? It's a shadow! Isn't it good to die like that, though? Why struggle? ”
The sand fox was first surprised, then shook his head and sighed.
