As the second scout on the team and the protector of the French Combatants, Roy made the right choice to go to the front of the group with Rondello. First of all, he can't leave. If Franco, who is on the way, loses contact, or if something happens, Rondelo must make sure that someone finds out.

Secondly, the front of the line is vulnerable to attack. As the captain, if Rondelo is involved in battle, then the front of the team needs Roy to protect and ensure the integrity of the formation. At the same time, he was also Landerlo's deputy, responsible for protecting his flanks.

Everyone understands this.

However, perhaps because of preconceived ideas, no one thought that this kid would be so thoughtful. They believe that the only reason he followed Rondello was safety.

"Would you like to give him a treat?" Walking in the dark and damp mountain forest, Lacios looked at Roy's back in front of him, shook the staff in his hand and said, "Petrified rays, or tickle rain?"

"Shut up!" said Lake, Larry, and Tusu at the same time. Afu covered her mouth and snickered.

It was a joke, but everyone, including Racios, had a wary look on them.

Since the invasion of the demons, the lack of food has caused the beasts in the mountains and forests to suffer. Not to mention ordinary beasts, even the fifth and sixth level magical beasts were slaughtered by hordes of mercenaries and hunters. And Qingshui County is not connected to the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and there are no high-level Demon Beasts.

It's not Warcraft that everyone is wary of, it's people.

The ruins of the abyss, like a raging fire, attract countless moths. There are all kinds of people who come here. In order to compete for interests, they do everything. Some even know that it will be difficult to reach the ruins, so they simply target the mercenary squads that go to explore.

The mercenary squad that explores the ruins will definitely be well prepared. On their bodies, in their spatial rings. With their best gear and even all the qiē. A successful attack can mean a crazy windfall!

Moreover, there are also contradictions between the major mercenary groups. For example, the exploration team of the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group, once encountered, even if they are not for money, they may be killed.

For the terrain of the abyss. Rondello is familiar. Under the leadership of the old horse captain, the team avoided the main road with many people, and climbed two hills from a small road to the valley where the entrance to the abyss was located.

"When you go down the hill, you will enter the abyss. Rondello said, standing on the edge of the cliff, pointing down the mountain.

Roy looked into the valley and saw that it was bounded by mountains, and the north side was sunny and forested. Full of life. The south side, on the other hand, is shrouded in a gloomy atmosphere. The sunlight seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall, and all the qiē looked gray.

The forest was shrouded in a reddish mist, and the air was filled with a pungent smell mixed with sulfur and decay. Ordinary trees have died, leaving only strangely shaped trunks, but some strange demonic plants are very luxuriant, and among them, Roy has found at least seven or eight species of plants with deadly dangers.

The entrance to the abyss, right at the bottom of the valley.

It was a huge hole three kilometers in diameter. The cave slopes from north to south. Bottomless. The earth at the entrance of the cave was charred black and covered with white bones. Tens of meters down. You can see a black, churning black gas like boiling water.

Gazing at the black qi, people seemed to be able to see tragic wars one after another, and saw countless abyss demons. From time to time, wisps of strange smoke could be seen, waving up with teeth and claws, and then let out a terrible cry. Dissipate in the air.

Roy's gaze followed the valley to the east.

There is the main road leading to the entrance to the abyss. Standing here, you can vaguely see a team heading towards the abyss. These people are ordinary mercenaries who are not strong enough to explore the depths of the abyss, but they want to try their luck.

Some of them are in groups, some of them are alone. Keep a lot of distance from each other. It looks like it's all about being careful. After all, in such a place, sometimes people are more dangerous than Warcraft.

"Look, it's someone from the Thunderstorm Mercenary Regiment. They seem to be clearing the field. ”

The female mage, Afu, unleashes a farsightedness spell. From the rippling oval mirror, everyone saw more than thirty heavily armed mercenaries standing at the entrance of the valley to the east. They guarded the passages, eyeing everyone who tried to approach the entrance to the abyss.

A little farther away, many mercenaries had already stopped because of their obstruction.

Everyone saw that an old mercenary tried to get close to the gang, but was slapped in the face by a one-eyed man and kicked to the ground.

"Just because you guys are also here to pick up the leaks?" Tu Su stared at the lips of the one-eyed man in the mirror image and read, "Get out of here." Otherwise, when our team arrives, you won't have a chance to get out of the way. Let's make it clear, this time the Abyss Ruins are covered by our Thunderstorm Mercenary Group. Don't think about fishing in troubled waters!"

"These bastards. Lake scolded.

Obviously, the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group is going to block the entrance and monopolize the interests. This kind of thing, for these outrageous guys, is simply commonplace.

Not to mention such a big discovery as the Abyss Ruins, it is a lair of precious magical beasts, a vein, a piece of land suitable for the growth of a certain magical plant, as long as they see it, it is also in their pockets. If the others dare to get involved, they will immediately end up on the spot.

"They only dare to attack the weak," Larry snorted coldly, "The exploration teams of the major mercenary groups in front of them have entered more than twenty, and they haven't seen them stop them." ”

"Okay, let's leave them alone. "We can go around it from the west." Let's go, without further ado. ”

Led by Rondelo, the team cautiously descended the hill and approached the valley floor.

This trail was discovered by Rondello several times during his exploration of the abyss, and almost no one knows about it. The Thunderstorm Mercenaries guarding the east would never have dreamed that someone would come around from behind them.

This made Roy sure he had made the right choice. If it weren't for Rundero leading the way, I'm afraid he would be one of the mercenaries who were blocked outside. It's not that he's afraid of the Thunderstorm Mercenaries, but he doesn't want to be the focus of attention because of the big fight before he enters the abyss.

After descending the hill for about two hundred meters, the team followed Rondello through a rocky process, over a small hill along a waterfall flowing from a spring, and into a dark ravine.

As soon as the thigh-thigh-deep river came ashore, everyone saw Franco waiting.

"There's trouble. The thief scout, who had been walking in front of him to explore the way, whispered, "Ahead is the lair of a seventh-order unicorn python. ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone's faces changed.

The unicorn python is an extremely difficult beast. Not only does it have a strong scale armor that is invulnerable, but it is also extremely poisonous. The venom it sprays, with just a little bit of it, can corrode even a giant elephant into a dry skeleton in just a few minutes. And if it is bitten by its fangs, it is almost certain death.

With the strength of everyone present, they can actually deal with a unicorn python independently. But if the battlefield is in the opponent's lair, it will not be easy.

Around the unicorn python's nest, a highly poisonous thorn and a man-eating vine grow. The barbs of thorns can paralyze and hallucinate. It's okay for a knight with a fighting spirit, but ordinary people will go crazy and die even if their skin is cut a little.

And that man-eating vine is even more terrifying. Their roots are so deep in the ground that they are not usually visible at all. But as soon as they sense their prey approaching, they will emerge from the dirt in droves and tear their prey to pieces with their huge purple teeth full of teeth.

The most annoying thing is that once the unicorn python is attacked and fought, the crown behind its unicorn will swell and make a huge sound. It's like a message to the rest of the valley.

Everyone knew that since the Thunderstorm Mercenary Group had blocked the entrance, it was likely that they had also deployed people in the valley, and even strong people were in charge. Once they are alarmed, the team will not only not be able to dive into the abyss, but will likely be locked in a bitter battle.

"Damn," said Rondero, "I've killed one before, how did I come out with another?"

"Is there any other way?" asked Larry.

Roundelo shook his head and said, "No." We have to find a way to deal with this unicorn python. Just walk through here and it's safe to get close to the entrance. The fog at the entrance was so toxic that no one wanted to stay there. ”

Everyone frowned.

The best way to deal with the unicorn python is to kill it in one fell swoop when it doesn't react. And such a task is obviously the most suitable for people like gnome warlocks and female mages with long attack distances and high attack power. However, neither of them could get through the thorns and man-eating vines on the periphery of the unicorn python's lair.

Moreover, these two people must have made a lot of moves.

Everyone looked at each other, and when they were at a loss, suddenly, Roy said, "Let me try." ”

You?

Everyone's eyes were focused on Roy's face.

In fact, when we first went to the mission hall to find a collaborator, everyone wanted to find a good shooter and a scout who was proficient in jungle raiding. And this situation is also the moment when such a character makes a move.

But after Roy joined, no one saw him as a trustworthy companion. People even ignored him naturally.

A rookie, it's good not to add to the mess, what else can you expect him to do?

But no one expected that he would take the initiative at this time.

"Leo," Roundelo frowned, "are you okay?"

"It should be fine. Roy said.

The unicorn python is no stranger to Roy, who has lived in a desperate situation for more than a year. He had several ways to deal with this kind of demonic beast.

Now Roy knows very well what other people think of him, and he knows that to reverse everyone's preconceived notions, it is useless to just talk about it.

The world of mercenaries will always be a world that advocates strength and respects the strong. If you want to gain the trust and respect of others, you must tell them with your actions that you are a qualified companion
