Chapter 58: Hugs

"Don't be impulsive," Watts' eyes flickered, "didn't you notice? none of the Dark Executioners came out. Also, on the way here, I got the news that Princess Elizabeth had also hired someone from the Blood Demon Hand to deal with that kid. But now you look at Sandra......"

Old Barnes followed Watts' gaze, and his expression suddenly froze.

Watts said faintly: "A total of thousands of people have entered this abyss exploration. Less than half of them came out, and these people were all applauding that kid. I'm afraid it's not easy. ”

"Those lowly mercenaries......" Old Barneau snorted heavily.

Although he scolded in his mouth, he was no longer as impulsive as before. After suppressing his emotions, he also seemed to notice something unusual. His gaze searched around the queue of survivors, and his expression became a little strange.

"Why haven't any of the people from the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment disappeared?"

"Oh?" Watts looked as well.

Watts is not familiar with the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment. However, he knew that the Barnes & Nobles were in the arms business and had to deal with various forces in many places. And in the south of the empire, the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group is definitely a partner that is very much in line with Old Barnes's taste in terms of strength and way of doing things.

For example, three years ago, when the Barnes & Nobles annexed an arms chamber that was fairly well-known and large-scale in Saxony Province, they secretly cooperated with the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment. In the end, under the persecution of the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group's various shady methods, the president of the Chamber of Commerce suddenly died, and the family was torn apart, allowing the Bano family to succeed.

Therefore, Old Barnes and the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group have a very close relationship, whether it is the head Mark or the deputy head Morton, they have been the guests of honor of the Barnes and Noble family for many years.

On the way to Lulian this time, Watts and Barnes Sr. heard that the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group had become the largest force among the mercenary groups exploring the abyss. They poured out of the nest. In total, more than a dozen mercenary teams were dispatched. Among them, the strongest masters in the regiment are concentrated, and they are personally led by the deputy head of the regiment, Paladin Morton.

With such a force, it is more than enough to destroy a medium-sized mercenary group or capture a less powerful marquisate overnight.

At that time, Barnes Sr. also said that if he had known that the boy would go to the abyss, he would not have needed to hire a dark executioner. Just talk to Morton. That kid had to die even if he had a hundred lives.

However, now he found that not only was the killer of the Dark Executioner gone, but even the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment had not been seen.

That's a little weird.

You know, that's a team of nearly 200 people in a dozen squads.

No matter how dangerous the abyss is, it is impossible for most of the other mercenary groups to survive, but they are so unlucky that they will be wiped out.

"What now?" asked Barnes Sr.

Watts frowned, his gaze falling on Roy. Shaking his head, he said to Old Barneau: "Look at ...... again"

####

In the overwhelming applause, Roy was a little confused.

Turning his head to look, he saw that the surroundings were densely packed with people, countless soldiers with blood stains on their bodies, mud and sweat standing on the grass, on the slopes, on the ridges, squeezing the entire valley with water.

And beside him. The more than 400 surviving mercenaries who had just been separated from him were lined up in two rows. A passage was formed, and they applauded and cheered themselves.

The smiling faces, the smiling eyes, are kind, warm, and grateful. Respect and a touch of narrowness. It's like a group of playmates who have secretly agreed to surprise a friend on their birthday, just like the audience in the opera house who stand up and salute a wonderful and great performance.

Before he could come to his senses, Runderlo, who was at the front of the line, had already strode up.

"Thank you!"

Rondello gave Roy a hug. In his ear, he said, "We have already discussed it when we come out." Before we repay you for saving your life, let us express our gratitude and respect in this way. Leo, you're the best mercenary I've ever met. ”

With that, Rondello patted Roy on the shoulder and stepped back.

Immediately after him came Larry, Franco, Tusu, Racios, Ave and other teammates who fought side by side with him along the way. Even Lake, who was still recovering, was lying on a stretcher, smiling weakly at him.

Possessed and hugging Lake, Roy continued to walk forward.

More than 400 mercenaries came up one after another. Wood, Olivia, Jacob, Shazo, Sanchez, and Sandra, Spengler......

"Thank you!"

Everyone hugged Roy.

It will take a long time to hug the more than 400 surviving mercenaries one by one.

And at this moment, a group of impatient lords and nobles, mercenary captains, chamber of commerce presidents, and sanctuary powerhouses had already swarmed up and surrounded Rondello and the others who were in front.

"Now you can tell us what happened?" "What happened to the Abyss Ruins? What happened? Why did those demons suddenly retreat? Also, how did you escape? What did that kid do......

A series of questions, urgent and fast, each of which is exactly what everyone desperately wants to know.

In the eyes of everyone, Rondello said: "Speaking of which, the words are long." As you know, we have fallen into the trap of demons when we explore the ruins of the Abyss......"

With Rundelo's narration and the mercenaries' nonsense, soon, a thrilling battle in the abyss appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

From how everyone fell into the trap and was captured by the magic array to the huge garden, to how everyone was hunted by hordes of abyss demons, and fled all the way to the bloody battle, to how to trap the guardian tower in despair, one by one, everyone was shocked.

Many of them were a little pale. They looked at each other with fear in their eyes.

Ever since they knew that the discovery of the Abyss Ruins was a trap, everyone had imagined what happened to these mercenaries in the Abyss countless times. However, they still did not expect that the situation would be so sinister.

Before reaching the Abyssal Ruins, nearly two-fifths of the mercenaries were dead or missing. And after finding the ruins, a magic pattern circle sent more than 600 mercenaries directly into a huge dark garden, becoming the prey of thousands of demons.

At least more than one hundred and fifty mercenaries were hunted and killed, and their flesh and blood became sacrifices for demons to break through the prohibition of the abyss. And just this part of the demons that rushed through the Blood Sacrifice Passage had already made everyone almost collapse. One can imagine how difficult the situation of these divided and surrounded mercenaries was at that time.

And what makes people feel respectful is that the mercenaries trapped in the guardian tower chose to destroy their own corpses. They didn't let the demons get even a drop of blood from them.

Adolf and Fano looked solemn, and the noble lords and generals beside them couldn't help but straighten up and look at the mercenaries' eyes, full of admiration. They now finally understood why the demon's blood sacrifice passage had not been able to transform into a hell gate for a long time.

All this because of the sacrifice of the heroic mercenaries
