Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Dragon's Tears Gem
Chris, a senior member of the Red Brotherhood, is tasting his treasures, cellared white wine from Nalda, his only hobby since being relegated to this place where birds don't.
Every afternoon at this time, the thunder does not move. Since the last person who disturbed him was hanged by him, no one dared to disturb his interest anymore.
But today, the closed door was pushed open, and Chris frowned at the comer, and if he didn't have a good enough reason, he would let him know what pain was.
"Lord Chris, it's not good, there's an enemy attacking us." The members of the report looked panicked.
Chris dropped his glass and strode out of the pantry, he wanted to show his enemies the cost of disturbing him.
Arriving at the entrance of the lair, the two sides had already begun to fight, but not in hand-to-hand combat, but in each other's fire.
"Buckley's mercenaries, what are they here for? Someone must have hired them, but who is it? A nobleman who thinks he is righteous? Or is it some merchant we have patronized? Chris thought about it and found that there were too many possibilities, after all, there was no one more hated than heresy and snake worship.
He wasn't particularly worried, although this lair was far away and remote, it did have a lot of treasures inside, so the guards sent were all high-ranking soldiers.
Even the famous Buckley mercenary was confident of a fight.
In fact, the crossbow arrows of the Barkley sappers are better than those guarded by the lair, but they are not to the extent of absolute superiority.
Moreover, they are attacking from low to high, which is naturally a disadvantage, and it is impossible for mercenaries to take the initiative to charge in the rain of arrows, and the scene is at a stalemate for a while.
Yun Feng raised his head and took a look, and immediately an arrow arrived in front of him, so frightened that he quickly shrank his head, and the arrow crossed him and shot at the shield wall behind him.
"Bakzan, is there a way to attack it?" Yun Feng looked at the leader of the Buckley mercenaries who had just finished shooting a cold arrow.
Bakzan shook his head: "The crossbow on the opposite side is also a good thing, although my boys are better, but it is still not good to attack from the bottom up." If I am given ten hoplites, then there will be no problem. ”
"Shall I give you another ten Barkley royal infantry?" Yun Feng rolled his eyes.
"That's not good, then I can't command." Bakzan's sense of humor is sometimes lacking.
The mercenary leader said that there was no way, then Yun Feng had nothing to do, it was impossible to force Bakzan to rush hard, it was one thing to listen to it or not, and the effect of the real rush might not be good.
Fortunately, I am a veteran player of riding and chopping, and I know that Barkley mercenaries are easy to use, if Brother Dao brushes it alone, recruiting young nobles, rogue knights, etc., it is estimated that they will be shot into a sieve at this time.
The big guy is not omnipotent, Yun Feng couldn't help but feel proud.
"You go down the hill from the trail and go to the headquarters to call for reinforcements." Chris commanded by pulling a member of the team.
"Yes, Master Chris." The members hurriedly agreed, and then ran towards the path.
"As soon as the reinforcements arrive, they will be attacked from both sides, and you scum who dare to disturb my wine tasting will wait to be concocted by me." Chris smiled cruelly.
Reinforcements arrived quickly, but alas, not the kind Chris wanted.
Liu Zheng struck a Red Brotherhood archer to death with two blows with a stick.
"Brother Dao, the one wearing the hat is the boss." Yun Feng saw Liu Zheng and immediately pointed the way.
Hearing this, Liu Zheng kicked down another infantryman, picked up his shield and rushed towards Chris.
"With the No. 2 formation, attack! Offensive! The enemy's formation was in disarray, and Bakzan saw that the time had come and immediately commanded.
The infantry stood with shields in front of them, and the crossbowmen staggered to form a narrow goose-shaped formation and attacked the mountain.
The strong firepower covered the positions guarded by the Red Brothers, leaving them with no manpower to support the flanks attacked by Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng was carrying a stick and hammer, like a hooligan, and kept smiling lewdly and walked towards Chris.
Several loyal members tried to stop it, but Liu Zheng hammered off their hands and feet, or was shot to death by two elite sappers.
"Who is Your Excellency? Aren't you afraid of the revenge of the Red Brotherhood? Chris said forcefully.
Liu Zheng ignored him, after watching TV series for so many years, if he still doesn't know the truth that the villain died from talking too much, then it will be in vain.
Hey, wait, who's the villain?
He sprinted all the way in front of Chris and then hit the head with a hammer.
can be sent to the lair as the leader, Chris's strength is also very good, and it is at least the level of a senior fighter in real sword fighting.
It's a pity that in front of him is Liu Zheng, who can beat the fighting champion.
One hammer knocked Chris's one-handed sword flying, and another hammer smashed his chest, and Liu Zheng picked up the one-handed sword and cut off his head.
"Your leader has,!" Liu Zheng suddenly squatted down and dodged an arrow.
"Your leader has been killed, why don't you surrender quickly?" Now he learned to be obedient, raising a shield in one hand and a head in the other.
The leader was killed, and the morale of the Red Brotherhood's guards plummeted, and some began to hesitate to lay down their weapons.
However, Liu Zheng did not intend to let them go, there is a good saying, you say that all the people in the Red Brotherhood are scum, then you may be biased, but you say that only nine out of ten in the Red Brotherhood are scum, then you are dishonest.
What's more, although he is not afraid of the Red Brotherhood, there is no need to let people go back to report the news.
Liu Zheng casually threw Chris's head, raised his club and rushed into the enemy's formation.
"Clean up the battlefield and don't leave a single living mouth. The spoils of war on your body, you will divide them among yourself. Liu Zheng gave the order, and then walked into the lair with Yun Feng.
"Hooray! My lord. "The mercenaries were elated.
After some searching, I found the treasure room.
Ignoring the mountains of dinars and weapons and equipment, Liu Zheng and Yun Feng quickly rummaged through the treasure chests and boxes.
Finally, in a jewelry box, they found their goal.
The fist-sized blue gemstone is not transparent, but the texture is closer to the rock, and there is a filamentous structure like a meridian inside, which makes people can't help but want to see it clearly.
"Dragon's Tears Gem"
"A precious gem with powerful magical powers, it is a treasure of the Pander continent, and it is very versatile"
"Quest items, cannot be used as items until the mission ends"
"Current mission progress: 1/2"
"Can be used to open the whole party character panel in this mission"
Seeing the last sentence, Yun Feng swallowed his saliva.
"What is the People panel?" Liu Zheng asked.
"It's that after upgrading, you can add attributes and skills, and many of the skills in it are very powerful, such as strong attacks that can add melee damage, riding speed and maneuverability, and the like." Yun Feng introduced.
"Then I have an idea." Liu Zheng had an idea.
"Don't, Brother Dao, I know what you think. But let's use it again after we find the whereabouts of the third dragon tear, don't use it in the future, if you can't find the third one, you'll be numb. Yun Feng hurriedly interrupted Liu Zheng's inspiration.
"You have a point, but there's a catch. I'm not sure I'll be able to beat Pande Athletic without the character panel. Liu Zheng said another question.
He is self-aware, even if it is the athletic meeting of Changge Port, he can't win it all, and the Pande athletic tournament is even more difficult.
"Well, then I have to open it. It's okay to open it, I just have some ideas. What Liu Zheng said was also very reasonable, and Yun Feng had no choice but to agree.
Anyway, he remembered that there were several ways to get the Dragon's Tear Gem in the original game, so he shouldn't be able to find the third one.
"Okay, let's go back to the city."
Out of the lair, the mercenaries have finished cleaning the battlefield.
If it was usual, Liu Zheng would bury the guard's body out of respect for the person himself.
But in order to avoid encountering reinforcements from the Red Brotherhood, Liu Zheng still gave up too much kindness this time.
He called out to Barkley and told him to bring out the remaining treasures and equipment, and then he led his troops down the mountain.
