Chapter Eighty-Three: Concentrate Your Efforts
Seeing off Celtic, Donn entered the warm cave and informed Marianda of the good news, then found Bruce and said, "Bruce, next time I go to Torlo Province, I am going to let you lead the team, you go to see Rednor by the way."
If all goes well with Torlo's side, I'm going to have Redno follow you back this time and gather your strength. ”
"If Redno returns, who will be in charge of the province of Torlo?" asked Bruce with wide eyes.
Now, the smuggling trail from the Red Dragon Forest has become an important source of income for Don and them.
Relying on this path, Tang En and others transported a steady stream of furs and salt from the northern Xinjiang to Torlo Province, and by the way, they also trafficked some spices and fine wine from Torlo Province, so that the trade back and forth brought Tang En and them very rich profits.
The entire trend trade has surpassed the candle business in the hands of Tang En and others, and it is their largest profit now.
Because of the importance of this smuggling route, the Silver-level professional Redno is on the side of Torlo Province.
"If there's no trouble over there, I'm going to let Rednor come back first, and let Jack and Field go for a while.
After all, the Emerald City is already an eventful time, and it may face an orc invasion at any time. If Redno returns, our main forces will be gathered together, which is equivalent to clenching fists and hitting people. Donn said.
Field is a member of the Iron Fire Mercenary Regiment that rebelled against Bazel.
Because the Bazel brothers and Sissel were killed by Don and others one after another, the Iron Fire Mercenary Group has actually been destroyed.
Field, Marion, the two former Iron Fire Mercenary Corps professionals have nowhere to go, plus the friendship formed by fighting side by side with Don and others, Field and Marion happily joined Don and their team.
Marion is a fifth-level warrior, while Field is a fifth-level ranger. With the fifth-level ranger Field and the fourth-level warrior Jack in charge, as long as there is no big trouble, it should be easy to settle.
"Who will your mage team send to Tollo this time?" asked Bruce.
"I guess I went there myself, Lucia just got injured, let her rest a little longer. Let Alex go with him, and by the way, take over the supply camp for Brand back to rest. Donn said.
"That's fine, in the future, let Brand, Alex, and Engier rotate often, so as not to live in the deserted environment of the supply camp for a long time, that kind of life is too bad. Bruce nodded.
After sending Bruce away, Don used the team's reserves to buy a shop in the Emerald City, hiding the fifth-level assassin Richard in the shop, and letting him rule all the hidden forces of the Emerald City.
This shop can not only serve as an intelligence station for collecting intelligence, but also sell rare goods in the hands of Tang En, and can act as a specialty store for selling white wax, making greater profits for Tang En.
By the time everything was done, the salt produced by Tang En had been accumulated for more than a month.
Despite the winter, Donn and the others still had to go out to deliver enough goods for the province of Torlo.
This time, the people who escorted the goods were five professionals, Donn, Bruce, Jack, and Field, plus fifty ordinary mercenaries.
Along the way, they walked through the sparsely populated barren mountains and mountains, and after three days entered the supply camp.
Don asked Alex to replace Brand, a decision that made Brand very happy.
Living in the deserted forest for almost half a year, although there is a replenishment of supplies once a month, Brand and the others also live very hard, like wild people in the forest.
With Brand and his party, Donn and the others began their arduous journey through the forest.
With a heavy snowfall, the snow in the forest is already deep, winter has arrived, and the environment in the Red Dragon Forest has become even harsher.
With the scarcity of food, even the demonic beasts in the forest slowly walked out of their nests and went outside to hunt.
The range of the monster has increased, making it much more threatening to traverse the forest.
Because of this, Tang En and the others were careful along the way, not daring to make a single sound.
Although the heavy snow has stopped, the snow is still very deep.
Because of the snow everywhere, it was very difficult for Don and them to move, and they wore thick leather boots and pulled heavy sleds, and struggled to move through the snowy forest.
Especially when it comes to making a fire, it's very difficult.
With Don as a magician in the team, they were able to successfully gas a bonfire with some precious magical materials.
In this harsh weather, if you can't make a fire, even a strong professional like Tang En will lose his physique due to the cold, and ordinary mercenaries will even lose their lives at any time.
Don and the others had just lit a bonfire when a giant black and white snake appeared nearby.
More than four meters long, the monolith is the thickness of a human thigh, and its black and white skin has a little shine on it, allowing it to be active in the cold and harsh winter months.
The giant snake was very nimble, swinging back and forth on the snow, and approached Tang En and the others at great speed.
Bruce had the best eyes, and immediately reminded: "It's a garland sunflower snake, don't look at their eyes." ”
The Garland Sunflower Snake is a fifth-level demonic beast, one of the three types of sunflower snake demonic beasts that live near the Oxhorn Forest. Compared to the sixth-level Bighorn Sunflower Snake, the Garland Sunflower Snake is faster and has a lower level, but it is not easy to be caught by humans.
The Garland Sunflower Snake itself also has a third-level magic Mind Light, which is a kind of enchanting magic. Once you fall under this magic, you will be confused by illusions and become a slave to the caster.
Compared with the bighorn sunflower snake, in addition to this charm ability, the lethality of the garland sunflower snake is seriously insufficient.
Even the venom in its mouth is far less poisonous than that of the Bighorn Snake.
"Don't panic, keep quiet, this monster is very fast, once you escape, there is nothing we can do.
In order to kill this monster, we have to deliberately pretend that we didn't find it and let it get close to us. Bruce waved his hand, interrupting the whispering mercenary.
The garland snake seemed very patient, and waited for more than an hour, and when Tang En and the others had finished their dinner and set up camp, they decided to attack.
It's a pity that because of Bruce's reminder, Tang En and the others had already prepared, everything was deliberately to confuse this magical beast, and they had already prepared a trap for the garland sunflower snake.
As soon as the garland sunflower snake approached, Tang En immediately launched the second-level magic spider web technique, and a spider web suddenly appeared in the sky, completely enveloping the garland sunflower snake.
Bruce immediately shot a sharp arrow and nailed it directly to the head of the garland sunflower snake, nailing it firmly to the ground.
Tang En then unleashed a Level 1 Magic Arcane Missile, smashing the Garland Snake's head to pieces, killing the beast completely.
