Thinking secretly in his heart, taking a deep breath, Xue Wuxian quickly shuttled through the Vancouver forest, now let's meet Uncle Faqi first! I don't know if he is impatient to wait.

With a light tap of his toes, the figure of the snow without a trace was like a streamer of light going deeper, and the elven forest could be said to be the most mysterious place in the Canglan Continent.

The entire Elven Forest covers an area of about 1500000 acres, and this is only an external estimate, it is said that there are huge lakes and bottomless canyons in the Elven Forest, so the actual territory area is estimated to be larger.

Geographically, although the Elven Forest is not in the center of the Canglan Continent, it has a decisive strategic significance in the offensive and defensive battles of the continent.

The Elven Forest is located in the south of the continent, adjacent to the Land of Chaos to the north, the Yan to the east, the Augustan Empire, one of the continent's two empires, to the northeast, and the endless sea to the west.

The Elven Forest also has a second name, the Enchanted Forest.

The reason why it has such a name is because in the legend, the Elven Forest was created by a strong man who reached the pinnacle of magic in the field of magic, and of course this should be a beautiful legend.

Whether it's the first name or the second name, the name knows that it has another meaning at the same time: there are so many mysterious places in this vast jungle.

So far, there has never been any non-elven intelligent species with bad intentions who have been able to get out of the elven forest alive, let alone have the luxury of retreating with their whole body.

According to the records circulated in the magician's manuscript, the reason why the elven forest is so mysterious that even races like the dragon have to retreat is the "three harmony" of the elven forest, which is the favorite saying among human kings: time, place, and people.

The elven forest has the purest earth, water, and wind elements in the world, as well as the wood magic derived from the elves.

In the Elven Forest, every tree has a history of tens of thousands of years, and these towering trees are all slowly exuding wood-based magic elves.

Among all the races, the strangest is the elven race, the biggest feature of this race is that it can communicate with heaven and earth, forests, and animals, and hundreds of thousands of forest elves in the elven forest are constantly brewing and cultivating their homeland, using their bodies and hearts to form the beating pulse of the forest, which is human.

In such a huge wood-based magic field that was born into it, any elf released a first-level wood-based magic, and the effect was directly compared to the third-level magic released by other magicians.

As the guardians of the Elven Forest, the noble, peaceful, and kind elves do not want anyone to disturb their peaceful lives.

Moreover, it is rumored that the Elven King, the owner of the Elven Forest, guards a great secret in this world, which is the best reason for the elves to refuse all visitors.

Now, after three days of day and night, Xue Wuxian finally crossed the Vancouver Forest, and came to the junction of the Vancouver Forest and the Elven Forest, looking at the Elven Forest that was close at hand, Xue Wuxian couldn't help but sigh deeply, even if it was a magister, the powerhouse of the Martial Saint Realm needed to maintain a place of awe, and Xue Wuxian was naturally no exception.

After looking around, Xue Wuxian found the contact address left by Uncle Faqi, which was a seemingly rough wooden house not far away, and when he got closer, Xue Wuxian found that there was a wooden board on the roof that was about to rot, with "Tavern" written on it.

It's really strange that in this place, there will be a tavern, and it is surprising that Snow walked in without a trace.

What Xue Wuxian didn't know was that wherever there were mercenaries, there would be underground mercenary guilds.

The so-called underground mercenary guild is a relatively complex and even difficult to understand concept, and many human beings have taken on tasks in underground guilds for more than 20 years, but they have not really understood the concept of underground guilds.

Hehe, therefore, the old mercenaries of the underground guild often say bitterly that people with an IQ of less than one hundred and twenty will not understand the true meaning of the underground mercenary guild.

The birth of the underground mercenary guild has been around for a long time, and some people say that from the day the mercenary was born, the germ of the underground guild has begun to appear.

There was only one reason for the formation of underground guilds in the first place: there were many employers of mercenaries, and the needs of these employers were even more strange, among them, some tasks were unsightly, and the employers who issued these tasks were even more disgraceful.

For example, assassinating a king or nobleman, stealing an artifact, slaughtering a village that disobeys an order...... In short, these things must be traded in secret, and the mercenaries who accept the mission are required to die without revealing the truth.

The original purpose of the Underground Mercenary Guild was to ensure that these transactions could eventually go smoothly and to ensure that the mercenaries who accepted the mission would not be killed by their employers after completing the mission.

In the subsequent development, the functions of the underground mercenary guild have been enriched, and there are currently at least three kinds of activities carried out in the underground guild: First, some mercenaries have not been able to join the big mercenary group for various reasons, and their own strength or mercenary level is very high.

Such mercenaries generally disdain to take on simple tasks, and can find more rewarding and challenging missions in underground guilds. It should be noted that these tasks are most likely black tasks, that is, tasks that will not be counted in the mercenary's log even if they are completed perfectly, which leads to the mercenary's level not being able to rise.

This will inevitably increase the mercenary's demand for the underground guild, forming a vicious circle.

Second, in order to seek higher profits, some large mercenary groups generally set up permanent offices in the treehouse bar, and they often sweep all the tasks that can be accepted by the mercenary group's level, and then subcontract out again at a slightly lower price after going to the underground guild.

For them, even if the subcontracting is unsuccessful, not a penny is lost. Of course, in order to ensure the completion rate of the mission, they will send competent mercenaries to complete the mission before the mission deadline.

Third, some thieves themselves have black identities, they may carry several lives on their backs, and it is impossible to receive regular tasks, and the demand for underground guilds is self-evident.

Intriguingly, the address of the underground guild is often not far from the tavern, and there are also three major guild organizations in the underground guild: the Killer Guild, the Thieves Guild, and the Gray Guild.
