Chapter 068: The Lost City of the Leylines (3)
After receiving the bounty mission issued by the elven nobleman Kriches Berry, Weizel and other adventurers and a team of ten members of the Berry family's direct guards hurriedly set out on the journey.
"Moradin is on it, how can the location be the 'Leyline Maze'?"
A dwarven warrior with a fluffy, brown beard muttered, looking unsure of the uncertain mission.
"Strong son of thunder, may Moradin bless your martial bravery!"
Another middle-aged adventurer, who was burly and armed with a broad-bladed heavy sword, asked in a low voice, "Can you tell us a little bit about the 'Leyline Maze'?" Why do you ...... Well, it seems to be very resistant to this bounty mission? ”
"Valley people? The people of Hartland? Forget it, you humans all look pretty ......."
After looking at the human adventurer beside him, the dwarven warrior holding a battle axe and shield said in his loud voice, "Torric, the son of the Iron River Clan and Duquaid, is honored to help you!" ”
Weized, who was following behind the human adventurers and dwarven warriors, also pricked up his ears, listening carefully to what the dwarf Torik was about to say.
"Aha! I'm sure...... You must be an adventurer from out of town! ”
Dwarf Torik said in an affirmative tone, "Only you outsiders will not know the horror of the 'Leyline Maze'!" ”
"It is said that long before the city of Naurez was founded, a powerful mage settled here on the hill with his seven apprentices."
"For the study of magic, the many strange creatures summoned by this mage served him, digging a vast storage room under his dwelling......"
"Unexpectedly, during the excavation process, the tunnel actually connected to a huge underground hall, which is the location of the long-disappeared ancient dwarven tribe - the 'Kingdom under the Mountain'."
At this, the dwarf Torik's eyes glowed with frenzy.
“…… The mage left his apprentice behind and descended to the underground ruins alone, and then disappeared! ”
"Over time, Naurez slowly built around the foot of the mountain, hiding the mage's dwelling and the tunnel that passed through the underground beneath the city."
"You know this time, right? That's what we call the 'Leyline Maze'! A place full of monsters and crises......"
After listening to the dwarf's introduction, the human adventurer asked again, "Son of Duquaid...... If the 'Leyline Maze' is so dangerous, why would Ruhl, the second son of the elven nobleman, venture into it? ”
"Hey, hey! You don't know that, do you? ”
The dwarf Torik stroked his beard and said with a mysterious expression: "Although the Leyline Maze is dangerous, it contains all kinds of magic items left behind by that powerful mage, as well as the hidden treasures in the 'Kingdom under the Mountain'......"
"It can be said that the Leyline Maze of Naurez is one of the most famous and famous places! I believe that it was with this idea that the noble young master ventured into the Leyline Maze......"
Hearing this, Weizel finally had a general idea of the destination of this trip.
It was at this moment that the procession of adventurers stopped.
"Attention! Ahead is the entrance to the 'Leyline Maze'! ”
Standing in front of the team, the captain of the guard directly under the Berry family, that is, the strong warrior who led Wei Zede and the others into the manor, said in a cold voice: "From now on, everyone must cheer up, if you don't want to die, you must honestly obey the command!" ”
The captain's words caused a commotion among the adventurers, and a barbarian with long messy hair and strange patterns painted on his face carried a huge mace in his hand and said angrily, "Command? Who's the conductor to listen to? ”
"Is that you?"
The barbarian waved his mace a few times, "If you want to convince my Azda, I have to ask him if he agrees or not?" ”
"That's it! Why should I be at your command? ”
"We are adventurers, not lackeys of the nobility!"
“……”
Before entering the Leyline Maze, there was infighting among the adventuring party.
"Shut up!"
The captain let out a loud roar that silenced the cacophony.
"In that case, let's solve this problem in the way of adventurers!"
As he spoke, the captain slowly drew the long sword at his waist, and bursts of bloody murderous aura emanated from his body.
"Come on! Barbarian, let me tell you...... What is obedience! ”
"Bastard!"
The barbarian let out an angry roar, raised his mace and slammed it down on the captain's head.
"Bell!"
The whizzing mace slammed into the captain's raised sword, making a piercing metal crash.
The tremendous force of the shock caused the barbarian to take a few steps back, but the captain stood still.
Under one blow, the high and low judgments are made.
"How is that possible? How can you have so much strength? ”
The barbarian, whose brain was full of war, attacked again without being discouraged, this time holding the mace in both hands, and with a leap, he pressed down on the captain's head.
"The number of attack paths is single, leaving no effort unturned, and jumping up ......"
Wei Zede shook his head, he didn't look good at this guy who could only use brute force.
"Boom!"
The huge mace slammed into the ground, splashing pieces of rubble.
The captain only dodged the barbarian's attack by just turning sideways, only to see him kick out with his right foot and kick the barbarian out directly.
"Damn!"
Tumbling on the ground a few times, the dusty, embarrassed savage roared and rushed over again.
"Humph! Act recklessly! ”
The captain's eyes narrowed, and he was about to deal a heavy blow to the barbarian.
"Azida! Stop it! ”
It was at this moment that out of the adventurers came a tall woman with a staff of white bones, and it was she who spoke out to stop the barbarians' attack.
"Warlock?"
The captain gave the woman a surprised look.
When the barbarian in a fit of rage heard this voice, he obediently stopped his charge and put down his mace.
"Sister Isa! Why are you stopping me? ”
The barbarian touched the back of his head and asked with a puzzled expression, "I'll get rid of this nasty guy soon!" ”
"Stupid! People have shown mercy! ”
After glaring fiercely at the barbarian, the young woman in red cloth armor led him back into the crowd.
"Does anyone else question my command?"
After a cautious glance at the woman, the captain continued to the other adventurers, "If not, I will assume that you have acquiesced in this decision!" ”
"Good!"
Looking at the quiet adventurers, the captain nodded in satisfaction.
"Then in the course of the next mission, I hope that you will be able to execute every command accurately!"
With that, the captain waved his right arm.
"Let's go!"
