Chapter 59: The Way of the Other
"BOSS, we can't catch up with Duke Sellenhof at this speed!" Serna hugged the eagle beast's neck tightly and said in bewilderment.
Two hours earlier, Xu Mo and Max had finally arrived at the Silver Northern Expedition led by Brandon, and they showed Captain Brandon a letter from Baron Tyrossos and ordered Duke Sellenhof not to act without permission.
Obviously, this order came too late, and the Duke of SΓΈrenhof had already set off for Stratholme, and had been walking for a long time, and could not catch up for the time being. However, this order came late, but it meant a lot to Sena, as she was partially restored to the reputation of the emptied Silver Crusade, and she was also given a hidden story mission to "atone for her sins".
This hidden story quest asks Serna to bring Duke Serenhof from the battlefield back to the Chapel of the Light's Wish. Although this hidden mission is the same as Xu Mo's silver rescue mission, the rewards of attribute points and honor points have been greatly strengthened, and to some extent, it is to make up for the punishment of her previous mission.
Originally, Serna thought that Xu Mo would not agree to her and carry out this task of "atonement for her sins". But to her surprise, Xu Mo agreed, and they borrowed two horned eagles from Captain Blanton, and the three of them were to chase Duke Sellenhof from the air.
Subsequently, Xu Mo's behavior became even more bizarre, if they were in a hurry, they still had hope to catch up with Duke Sellenhof before he fell into the trap, but Xu Mo asked to slow down the flight, and the group was like a schoolboy outing.
"Serna, my judgment remains the same, for us, the front is still a dead end. Only when the backup I have invited arrives will we be able to guarantee the safe recovery of the Duke of Serenhof! Xu Mo grinned and said mysteriously.
"BOSS, although I don't know what backup you have invited, but with this speed, I'm afraid that Duke Sellenhof is already a dead corpse!" Serna said worriedly.
"Our mission only requires that Duke Serenhof be be brought back, not that he must be a living man!" Xu Mo said calmly.
"......" Xu Mo's words made Serna suddenly feel that her brain cells were a little insufficient, and she was stunned.
In fact, this is also because Xu Mo has always attached great importance to the relationship between the characters in the plot before, which made her a little unable to react for a while. When she came back to her senses, Serna smiled bitterly and changed the subject, this time she didn't dare to ask Xu Mo again, so she didn't have to be hit again.
"Max, what kind of backup did the boss ask for!" The business negotiator chooses a person who can be bullied by her.
"You'll find out later!" Max was silent for a moment, and a strange smile appeared on his face, as if it was a bitter pleasure, and he couldn't explain it.
Serna wouldn't be polite to Max's betrayal, she gave him a fierce look, puffed out her cheeks angrily, and stopped talking in anger, which made the new Death Knight smile bitterly. After the three of them flew leisurely for a few hours, the sharp-eyed business negotiator suddenly noticed two people on the ground, one high and one low, fleeing in embarrassment.
"BOSS, I found Li Ze and Hong Jian, the two first-order transferors who want to join the old K group!" Serna took a closer look and exclaimed.
"Oh!" Xu Mo frowned, he didn't think that these two people would survive, but he was immediately relieved, "Let's land and pick them up!" β
"Serna!" Looking at Serna, who came to the two of them, Li Ze and Hong Jian had a feeling of the rest of their lives, and couldn't help but sigh.
Subsequently, in the brief narrative between the two, Xu Mo and others also obtained the situation of Duke Sellenhof and his party. As Xu Mo expected, Duke Sellenhof and his party were wiped out in that valley. The mascot Duke failed to bring good luck to himself this time, and under the siege of three powerful death knights, the Duke died at the hands of his former friend Baron Rivendell with strong unwillingness.
"How did you get out?" Serna suddenly frowned, looked at Li Ze and Hong Jian and asked.
"This ...... Black Widow asked us to redeem our lives with equipment items. Li Ze and Hong Jian glanced at each other in frustration, "Sena, you're right, it's better to refuse this task directly." β
"It doesn't matter, as long as we reincarnators can still have a life, we will have a chance to turn the tables in the future!" Xu Mo, who had been silent beside him, suddenly spoke gently and comforted, "Let's go, let's go back to the Silver Northern Expeditionary Army!" β
"You are ......" Li Ze and Hong Jian had already noticed that behind Serna, the young man with a steel mask, his eyes lit up when he finally spoke.
"I'm the old K!" Xu Mo said calmly, and turned over on Tesmerissa's dragon back again.
Li Ze and Hong Jian confirmed the conjecture in their hearts and couldn't help but be overjoyed. However, when they saw Tesmerisa under Xu Mo's seat, there was a hint of shock and indescribable meaning in their eyes, and they exchanged a few glances with each other, and then followed.
Max handed over his horned eagle beast~ to Li Ze and Hong Jian, and he rode with Serna, and the group started on the road again. However, the direction of travel was the garrison of Captain Blanton's silver Northern Expeditionary Army, and the group seemed to have given up on retrieving the body of Duke Sellenhof.
"BOSS, is it okay to take them on the road? It's better to let them go back to the station on their own, and we will go back to the body of Duke Serenhof! Serna asks in the team channel, fearing that the two might have reached a compromise with the Black Widow team and would sell their place to the Black Widow team.
"I know what you're worried about, Black Widow put them back, and they must have made some kind of deal with them in addition to what they said they said were to redeem their lives with equipment. But it doesn't matter, if I'm not mistaken, this agreement between Black Widow and them is just as undesirable for us! Xu Mo smiled flatly, "A good ring always needs some audiences!" β
β¦β¦
"Boss, look! It's an undead bat! As soon as Xu Mo and his party flew out, Serna seemed to feel something, and when she looked back, she exclaimed loudly.
As soon as Xu Mo turned around, he saw hundreds of black dots appear in the sky in the distance, rolling towards them like a dark cloud.
"Those two people really betrayed our position!" Max looked at the other side with a gloomy face. I don't know when, Li Ze and Hong Jian have already flown away from them.
"The signing of the space agreement, they also involuntarily did not participate in the siege of us, which shows that they subconsciously maintain a neutral position." Seeing this scene, Xu Mo smiled indifferently and took the initiative to excuse Li Ze and Hong Jian.
"BOSS, what other tricks do you have, you can use it now, you won't have a chance if you don't use it again!" Serna looked at Xu Mo, who was still talking and laughing, and urged with a wry smile.
"Don't worry, they want to catch up, it's still a while!" Xu Mo bent his palm, put it on his right eye, turned around and leisurely made a telescope pose.
However, after continuing to fly for a few minutes, Xu Mo finally began to be a little uncalm, took out a button, and shouted at it: "Damn, if you don't come again, I will really become an undead!" β
"Young Stalker mercenary, this time you begged me, you should have a better attitude!" A dull and majestic voice suddenly came from the button, "Last time, you only let me fulfill half of my wish, your credit is not very good, I want to raise the price!" β
"Old guy, the temporary price increase is not in line with the identity of a character like you!" Xu Mo's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said.
"Five!" The voice in the button paused, and said an inexplicable number.
"No, just one." Xu Mo yelled angrily.
"Then you just wait to be the undead!" The voice in the button seemed to enjoy Xu Mo's anger very much.
ββ¦β¦ Two, I only have two! On the one condition I have to help me shoot down at least one Death Knight, though! Xu Mo was silent for a few seconds, and finally relented. However, there seemed to be irrepressible anger in his voice.
"Okay, deal!" The voice in the button was finally satisfied, and happily agreed.
"BOSS, at this time, you bargain with others? And who the hell is that voice, are you sure he can deal with hundreds of undead giant bats and the giant bat riders on their backs? Sena's pretty face wrinkled sadly, if it weren't for Xu Mo's past performance to support her confidence, she would have lost her expectations for the unreliable behavior of her boss.
"Don't worry, although that cunning old lizard is greedy and has no credit, its strength is still worthy of recognition!" Xu Mo put away the anger on his face and said expressionlessly.
"Serna, it's okay, it's not now that we need to worry!" Max, who was sitting with Serna, suddenly sighed, his expression melancholy like a new widow.
β¦β¦
"Luth, you have said it, Lao K is really here, haha!" Black Widow Elise patted the back of the undead giant bat frantically, her heroic face was hideously distorted, and a pearl-like tear fell from the corner of her eye, "Alice, you wait a little longer, I'll send Old K over to see you right away!" β
"Elise......" Lutter's eyebrows tightened, his heart full of unease.
From the beginning of the ambush of Duke Serenhoff, Blackeye had a very strange feeling. In his calculations, Duke Serenhof should have at least one member of the old K-regiment by his side, but there was no such key person, only Li Ze and Hong Jian.
After the death of Duke Serenhoff, Lut knew that Old K should have seen through this trap, and at that time, in fact, he subconsciously judged that Old K would not come back. Therefore, Li Ze and Hong Jian, who were supposed to be killed by Black Widow, were preserved by him.
Lut signed a space agreement with the two of them, and Li Ze and Hong Jian could redeem their lives with equipment and props. But there is an additional condition, that is, the location coordinates of the old K's real body must be provided once.
Lute used this protocol and did not expect Li Ze and Hong Jian to provide the location coordinates immediately, mainly to prepare for the next layout. In addition, he hopes to repay the other in his own way, even if he can't kill Lao K, he will use Li Ze and Hong Jian to publicize the defeat of Lao K's regiment after returning to the space, and continue the strategic layout this time.
The old K regiment is already enemy on all sides, as long as someone proves that the old K is not invulnerable, then the old K regiment will be struggling in the next mission world. The Black Widow team can wash away the decline and re-erect the strong signboard of the Y-space job transfer team.
Lute believes that as long as this effect is achieved, he can also unite the two Y-Space teams of "Eternity" and "Yansha Club" to help him pass the spatial intersection proposal.
This is the horror of a strategic wise man, it doesn't matter if a battle doesn't achieve its goal, the gradually closing net will still push the opponent into a corner. However, what happened next once again subverted Lute's idea, and not long after Li Ze and Hong Jian got out, they immediately sent the location coordinates of Lao K.
Old K actually came, and after the death of Duke Serenhof, like a lost lamb, he broke into the net he laid again. Although Lao K brought a red dragon mount, the Scourge Legion also had nearly a hundred undead giant bats. Maybe Lao K himself can run away with the red dragon, but the two members of his team must not be able to escape.
This is the wise old K who once defeated Black Widow and Shepis ? In a state of extreme unease, Lut felt lost for the first time, as if the once crystal clear stream had suddenly turned into a muddy ditch.
However, Black-Eyed Lut was not confused for long, and a huge black shadow appeared in the sky, solving all his doubts!

In addition, the gluttony once again reiterated that the time setting of this volume is different from the World of Warcraft, and the time setting of Warcraft will be all set aside later, and the time context will be smoothed out little by little with the development of the story plot of this volume.
