"Ahh Zhao Yuan turned back coldly, it turned out to be the same group of mercenaries from before. They searched in the direction Arman pointed to no avail, until they saw the low weeds at the edge of the forest and realized that they had been tricked, and when they turned around and chased after them, they saw this horrible scene! It was one of the orcs with a young face who screamed.

At this time, the five-colored demon sandalwood also swallowed Arman, and once again gathered into a mediocre-looking sandalwood tree, and with a wave of Zhao Yuan's hand, the sandalwood tree disappeared. Only a single intact human skin remained in its place, intact except for the hole in the belly.

When the mercenaries saw this, they broke out in a cold sweat. I don't know who shouted, "Run!" A group of people spread their girls and rushed out of the forest, the young man who was the first to scream had trembling legs and stomachs, and he didn't run two steps before he fell into the mud, he looked back, only to see that the gray-robed man didn't pay attention to him at all, just picked up the human skin and looked at it, the young mercenary looked at the shriveled human skin from a distance, his scalp was numb, and he fled with a crawl.

Zhao Yuan looked at the human skin in his hand, a look of ridicule or sadness flashed in his eyes, and a fireball suddenly appeared in his palm. The raging flames immediately burned the thin human skin, leaving only a ring that fell to the ground with a gurgling appearance.

Zhao Yuan bent down to pick up the ring, blew the dust on it, put it in his pocket, and strolled out of the forest.

Generally, storage rings have the mark of the original owner, which is difficult for outsiders to open. But there are no absolutes in the world, as long as the bid is high enough, there will always be a capable person who will open the prohibition on the ring. The higher the price of the storage ring, the more difficult it is to break the ban on it.

Sherman's storage ring is also a good thing, Zhao Yuan sold the high-level crystal nucleus on his body, and only then did he scrape together enough 100,000 magic crystals to open Sherman's ring.

The ring is full of miscellaneous things, and there are many poisonous hidden weapons, which is the standard configuration of the snake clan. There are also some better herbs, all of which are quite high, and in addition, there is the treasure map, and a herb that Zhao Yuan can't see. This herb was carefully placed in an expensive crystal jade box, Zhao Yuan had only heard of this rare material, and it was the first time he had seen it, it was said to have an incomparable warming effect, and it belonged to the legendary material.

The herbs that can be made into boxes from this material are certainly extraordinary. Zhao Yuan had a headache, if only Joshua went back later, he could still ask him to help him recognize it, after all, the elf race is recognized as knowledgeable, and the study of herbs is incomparable to other races.

But now the top priority is to find the treasure indicated by this treasure map first, half a month has passed, and it will soon be time for him to go to the Donghuan Continent. The transcontinental teleportation array can only be activated once a month, and if you want to use it, you have to make an appointment in advance, and if you miss this time, you don't know when you will wait for the next time.

Thinking of the mysterious people who attacked the teleportation array before, Zhao Yuan couldn't help frowning, that group also went to the Donghuan Continent, maybe the two sides would have a chance to meet after he passed.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhao Yuan checked out of the Knowles Hotel and rode a purple wheel horse to the location indicated by the treasure map. It was an area bordering the ape and the mammoth, covered with a large swamp, this swamp was called the Traveler's Swamp, shrouded in miasma all year round, and the terrain route was complex and changeable, and the martial artists below the fifth order did not dare to enter easily, and they had to be equipped with a large number of poison clearing pills to dare to enter one of them.

In addition to spending a lot of money to buy detoxification pills, another way to enter the swamp is to invite a mage in the party. A third-order mage can learn a simple expulsion technique that can be used to expel the bad effects of one's own body, and although it has no effect on powerful poisons and curses, it is still enough to deal with a small miasma.

It can be seen that mages have a pivotal position in the mercenary team, but mages in the Cold Beast Continent are indeed scarce, and it is very expensive to invite one, and many mercenary teams do not have so many people, so they simply buy poison pills and enter the swamp.

Ruifeng Town is a small town near the edge of the swamp, and like the Red Snake Town on the edge of the Dust Misty Forest and the Qili Town at the foot of the Qierdos Mountain, it has prospered economically driven by the Traveler's Swamp.

In the hall of the mercenary union, a group of people were gathering in the center of the hall, looking at the task notice board on the high place and worrying.

"Boss, what can I do, Nini was scolded by you and went home, we don't have a mage in the team, how can we go into the swamp to do a mission!" a leopard orc grumbled with a speckled tail.

"What else can I do, buy the poison clearing pill, will our Leopard Mercenary Regiment go down without a mage?"

His subordinates looked at each other, their faces showing bitterness, although the detoxification pill was not a rare elixir, and the price was average, but it couldn't bear the large amount after entering the swamp. If the harvest of the mission is average, then the money to buy the detoxification pill will cost most of their income, if the harvest of the task is less, they will have to lose money, what can I do!

"Besides, she's not the only mage in this world!" said the leopard clan, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a gray-robed figure out of the corner of his eye, and his eyes lit up. "Hey, young man, are you a mage, do you want to come to our team and go to the Traveler's Swamp to do a mission!"

Zhao Yuan looked at the orc that suddenly appeared in front of him, and raised his eyelids, the orc was a head taller than him, and his bare arms were streamlined muscles, full of explosive feeling.

"What task?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"It's not a difficult task, it's to hunt a mutated miremon, but that mire beast is hard to find, so we may have to look for it for a while, so I want to ask you to perform the expulsion technique......" Speaking of this, the leopard clan seemed to suddenly remember something, and he looked Zhao Yuan up and down: "Little brother, are you- can you expel the technique?"

Zhao Yuan smiled: "Of course." ”

"Hahaha! That's good, I'll just say, Nini's little girl is not the only genius mage in the world, our little brother is not also a third-order mage at a young age!" The leopard clan looked up to the sky and laughed, and put his arm on Zhao Yuan's shoulder, looking like a good brother. "Little brother, don't worry, we will never give you less reward, you don't have to worry about anything else, we have a special martial artist to protect your safety, you only need to put a few expulsion techniques. ”

Zhao Yuan nodded, and the leopard clan was still thinking in pieces: "Is your mana enough? If it's not enough, I still have mana potions here, if you need it, just open your mouth, there's nothing to be embarrassed about!"

"By the way, when the time comes to distribute the reward, do you want the magic crystal directly, or do you want the loot?" the leopard clan asked, Zhao Yuan only realized that something was wrong at this time, how could he agree to his invitation in a daze. But after thinking about it for a moment, he had another idea.

"I don't need to be paid, just give me a map of the swamp. Zhao Yuan's voice was a gentle youth voice, and the leopard clan man listened to it in his ears, but he inexplicably felt an invisible coercion disappear in a flash, as if it was the elder of the clan standing in front of him. He shook his head to push this strange thought out of his mind, and said with some embarrassment: "Map...... It's not easy to do.,The little brother is just starting out in the industry.,It's normal to not know the rules.,The map of each mercenary team is to find a way to get it by yourself.,Either you explore and draw the map step by step.,Or get through the relationship from other teams.,Only the captain of each mercenary team has the right to hold the map.。 ”

Zhao Yuan glanced at him: "Then who is the team of your team?"

The leopard man blinked, "That's me." ”

"Then don't you have a map?" Zhao Yuan looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Who knew that the leopard man also looked at him inexplicably: "I gave you the map, what should I do?"

Zhao Yuan lowered his head and thought for a second, then suddenly remembered that there is no so-called "copying" in this world, and even printing is still the patent of the human race. It takes a lot of time to produce every book or map.

"Okay, then I'll take a look at the map. Zhao Yuan said.

The leopard clan didn't expect Zhao Yuan to change his words so easily, he was still hesitating and struggling in his heart just now, and now when he heard Zhao Yuan say this, he immediately smiled.

"Okay, okay, no problem!"

Now that the mage has been found, the Leopard mercenary team immediately sets off. Zhao Yuan was quite surprised when he saw the black pressure on hundreds of orcs, it was the first time he had seen such a large mercenary team, this could no longer be called a "squad", Zhao Yuan muttered in his heart.

However, the vast majority of the orcs in this team are leopards, and a very small number of them are foreigners, and those who are foreign can tell at a glance that they are in charge of logistics or have special positions in the team, such as the rabbit Yan clan who are good at identifying herbs and healing the wounded, and the canine tooth clan who have a keen sense of smell, etc.

Along the way, the leopard clan was still getting close to Zhao Yuantao, especially when he saw Zhao Yuan silently unleash an expulsion technique, the eyes that looked at Zhao Yuan became even more eager.

"I was quite surprised when I saw you, little brother, there is such a young third-order mage, it's really a genius that is rare to see in a hundred years!" the leopard clan said exaggeratedly, and a leopard clan next to him muttered in a low voice: "Nini is not a third-order ...... yet"

"Oh, it turns out that little brother, you are a human race, no wonder you are talented, the mage of the human race is really strong, we can meet in the Cold Beast Continent, it's really fate!" The leopard clan completely ignored the eyes of the other team members, and slapped Zhao Yuan's ass vigorously, and his tone was very sincere, which made Zhao Yuan, who was used to flattery, a little unbearable, and his old face turned red.
