Seven days later, after Ling Tian took the light armor and packed some food and fresh water, he went to the mercenary union to meet Lao Luo and them, and saw that Ling Tian was obviously worth a lot of equipment, and Lao Luo was also amazed.

"Let's go, the employer is already waiting for us at the city gate."

Seeing that everyone was coming, Lao Luo greeted and straddled a backpack behind him.

Ling Tian nodded, and followed the team out of the mercenary hall, the group traveled quickly, and it took ten minutes to arrive at the main city gate and join a convoy.

They were joined by an old human man, dressed in a delicate butler's clothes, but the employer had never come out, so they could not guess the identity of the employee, and in addition to the carriage in which the employer was, there were several fully loaded wagons in the convoy, and the bodies of the carriages were covered with black cloths, and they did not know what they contained.

"Let's go."

After handing over some complicated work, the convoy set off from the sacred heaven and drove all the way along the official road.

"I don't know what's going on during this time, there are more and more signs of monster activity." Lao Luo rode at the front of the convoy, complaining, just yesterday when he was drinking in the tavern, he also heard the mercenary Lao Wang next door has not been back since the last mission.

It is said that someone saw Lao Wang in a village in the north, and it didn't take long for that place to be slaughtered by monsters, and there were dozens of people in the whole village, and there were not even fast bones left.

It's pretty miserable, too.

"Don't think about it, if the monster really makes any moves, the empire will definitely make an announcement, and if nothing else, His Majesty the King will not sit idly by." Lena held the bow and arrow in her hand, listlessly guarding the surroundings, things like monster invasion are not something that small people like them should think about at all.

It's useless to think about it anyway.

"Your Majesty the King......" Lao Luo pursed his lips, the expression on his face was very disdainful, but because of the relationship between the noble employer behind him, he didn't say much.

You must know that the king is very good-looking, and if some words reach the king's ears, it will be a matter of losing his head.

Stopped talking, but everyone didn't talk much next, the convoy was moving at an average speed, the atmosphere was slightly depressing, and it was easy to see a trace of worry on Lao Luo's face.

No one knows when this kind of day will come to an end, but recently because of the monsters, there are fewer and fewer mercenaries who are willing to go on missions, and the danger has increased exponentially, which has had an extremely bad impact on their lives.

……

In the following days, except for the necessary rest, everyone kept on the road, which was supposed to be seven or eight days away, but most of the three days had already been walked.

In fact, this is the most difficult time of the whole mission, they have been far away from the sphere of influence of the Divine Heaven, the surroundings are extremely remote, sometimes they can't see a single figure for half a day, they can only eat hard bread, drink mountain spring water, and always have to watch out for dangers such as monsters or bandits.

In such a remote place, no one dared to be careless, and perhaps a trivial oversight would bring enough danger to destroy them.

"Parking, something is wrong."

When driving to the vicinity of a dense forest, Lao Luo raised his hand, and everyone gathered together very tacitly, vigilant of the wind and grass around him, and the convoy behind him saw the movements of several people, and also stopped.

"Why did you stop again, can you not have so many troubles, we are in a hurry." The butler dismounted, muttered and walked forward, with a very dissatisfied expression on his face.

But before the butler could get closer, there were a few sounds of squirming in the bushes beside him, and everyone immediately put their hands on the handle of the weapon and turned their eyes in the direction from which the sound came.

"Humans."

"Kill them all!"

The housekeeper didn't notice at all, and muttered to the bushes, Lao Luo opened his mouth, but before he could remind, several short ugly monsters shouted, and came out of the bushes, and the moment he saw the monsters, the housekeeper was stunned.

"Monsters! Help me! There are monsters! ”

Just as the short knife in the monster's hand was about to slash at his body, the butler struck a shock, turned around on the spot, and fled towards Ling Tian and them in a panic.

"Delicious!"

"Food!"

By mistake, the monster's knife slashed on the ground, bringing a series of piercing sounds, and when they saw the prey fleeing, the monsters yelled angrily and waved their knives to chase after them.

"I'll come."

Lena screamed, and pulled the bowstring in her hand again and again, and several arrows flew out of her hand, shooting several chasing monsters.

But before the others could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a dense sound of footsteps behind the bushes, and when they heard the dense footsteps, everyone panicked.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!"

Lao Luo roared angrily, pulled out the big sword behind his back, and the rest of the people also took out their respective weapons, and when the words fell, dense ugly monsters poured out from behind the bushes.

"Let's do it together, kill it!"

Don't dare to delay in the slightest, and didn't even look at the employer behind him, Lao Luo rushed in the direction when he took the lead, but what was desperate was that the road behind him was also occupied by the tide of monsters, and the entire convoy was surrounded by monsters.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrows, and instead of following Lao Luo's group to rush out, he pulled the reins and came to the direction of the carriage, and no one noticed him on the chaotic battlefield.

"Kill, burn!"

"Plunder, Kedra!"

The monster shouted, his voice frenzied and frantic, and in the center of the group of monsters, a giant monster in iron armor swung a pair of equally large iron hammers, letting out a roar like thunder.

In the chaotic battlefield, Ling Tian dismounted as if he was walking, slowly came to the front of the carriage, and lifted the curtain.

Inside the carriage sat a boy, very handsome, inlaid with gold and jade, about twelve or thirteen years old.

Seemingly unaware of what was going on outside, the little boy's eyes were full of panic, watching Ling Tian lift the curtain and desperately shrink into the corner of the carriage.

"My lord, I am the mercenary escorting you."

Ling Tian bent down slightly, the corners of his mouth hung into a polite arc, and from outside the raised door curtain, there were also monster figures that were constantly pouring towards this side.

"Lena!"

The little boy opened his mouth and just wanted to speak, when suddenly Lao Luo's heart-rending screams came from behind, the little boy shuddered, and the unspoken words were swallowed back into his stomach.
