Chapter 239: Abyssal Valley

Valley of the Abyss?

Listening to the name, Benjamin also slowly remembered that he had seen it in the book before. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is a small but well-known valley on the edge of Freden, a Bermuda Triangle. The valley is named "Abyss", not because there are demons or anything in it, but because in the eyes of most people, there is some kind of strange power in this place.

There aren't many magical beasts here, so in the beginning, people often pass by here. But later, people gradually discovered that the frequency of disappearances of people passing by here is very high.

Legend has it that there was once a team of mercenaries who disappeared when they borrowed the Valley of the Abyss, so the Mercenary Association sent someone to find them. However, after searching for a long time, they only found the missing mercenary's weapons and bags, and the dry food and materials in them were well preserved, and even still fresh. But in the end, no one knew where the mercenaries had gone. The only surviving creature of the vanished mercenaries was a half-starved dog, with a rope still tied to his bag, but his owner was nowhere to be found.

Since then, the name of the Valley of the Abyss as a "cannibal" has spread.

Realizing that he had inadvertently entered the valley of the abyss, Benjamin couldn't help but sigh at his bad luck - he could land in this hellish place if he landed casually.

He wasn't worried, though.

There has been no evidence for pedestrians to disappear for no reason, and the people like to tell this kind of story the most, and the more it is spread, the more outrageous it becomes. In Benjamin's opinion, the so-called Valley of the Abyss should be just a monstrous legend.

Looking at the surrounding environment now, it feels quite eerie. Under the influence of this eerie environment, it is not surprising that some ghost stories are made.

With that in mind, Benjamin summoned a large healing balloon and slapped it at the other mages. The mages were just a little "seasick", but under this beat, they all gradually woke up.

"It's ...... Where is it?"

Looking at their surroundings, the mages looked confused, and Benjamin explained the situation to them. Fortunately, after hearing about the Valley of the Abyss, most of the people did not show a panicked expression, but suddenly became excited.

"I've always been curious about this place, maybe we can unlock the secrets of this valley!"

Hearing this, Benjamin shook his head helplessly.

Although he also has curiosity, he has not been interested in this strange metaphysics for some reason. Besides, he thought it would be better for them to enter the town earlier.

- They weren't here to explore, after all.

As it was getting late, under Benjamin's command, the mages packed up their scattered belongings, found a place nearby, set up camp, and prepared to rest for the night before setting off the next day. Traveling in the middle of the night is not as safe as during the day, and besides, this valley is not so small, and it may not be possible to walk out at night.

So, an hour later, lying in the pitched tent, Benjamin scanned the surroundings with the water elemental sensing method, made sure that there was nothing unusual, closed his eyes, and began his bedtime meditation routine.

In the consciousness space, the distance between the three characters was a little closer than before, and vaguely, I felt that the blue light shining was brighter than before. Benjamin was a little curious, and continued to strengthen it, whether these characters would be as bright as the sun and blind people's eyes.

Mobilize the water elements in the space and infuse them into the triangular characters...... This process, which has been carried out countless times, is still carried out by Benjamin with great obsession.

After meditating for more than an hour, Benjamin left the space of consciousness and fell into a deep sleep.

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, Benjamin woke up and made a special tour of their camp. It's good, everyone is there, no one is missing, that strange legend has not been confirmed to them. I asked the mages who took turns keeping vigil, and it was a very peaceful night, not even a single magical beast passing by, let alone any strange things.

So, after breakfast, the group packed up the camp, confirmed the direction, and began to hurry.

"Teacher Benjamin...... On the way, Andy suddenly patted Benjamin on the shoulder and said, "That...... The materials for refining potions were almost exhausted, and we soon couldn't continue practicing. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin turned his head and said, "How are you practicing those introductory potions?"

Andy looked at the sky and replied while snapping his fingers: "The success rate of healing potions is almost 100 percent, and the success rate of agility potions and strength potions is also seventy or eighty percent. The potions we have refined are all in Wallis, and there are quite a few of them, so they should be able to sell for a lot of money. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin nodded in satisfaction.

Now, they have also come to Freden, and a stable economic income is certainly essential if they want to settle in this country. Looking at the introduction of "Introduction to Potions", to be able to achieve this success rate, they are already two qualified potion mages.

But...... It's not enough to just refine an entry-level potion.

Benjamin also knew very well that if there was "Potions Primer", there would definitely be "Potions Advanced". The profit of this simple potion is certainly not enough, and it cannot be respected by other forces because of this. Therefore, Andy and Hannah, Benjamin still has to continue to raise them up.

In Freden, there should be books on the subject. There is no monopoly like the Mage Guild here, so it shouldn't be too difficult to get your hands on...... Right?

The magic circle of this country, he also has to get to know it well.

"Then you should rest for a while. So, Benjamin said, "I'll find a way to get you new recipes when you get to town, so you don't have to deal with those potions all day." ”

Hearing this, Andy finally smiled and said, "Teacher Benjamin, then please leave it to you." ”

With that in mind, after dealing with the issue of improving the productivity of the team, Benjamin couldn't help but start thinking about the financial capacity they now have.

They had just seized a lot of gold from the river pirates, and they still had plenty of money. It's just that once they settle in Fredon, there will be more places to use the money.

In addition to the basic necessities of life, such as food, clothing, shelter and transportation, the development and improvement of the entire mage team, the demand for Warcraft materials, and even ...... Benjamin also had the idea of expanding his team and recruiting some new mages. After all, the meditation method they have studied now is quite good, and they have their own magic concepts, and the concept of "magic is imitating Warcraft" in the wizarding world here, Benjamin has not been happy with it for a long time, and he wants to take it a look.

In fact, he gradually realized that they were not in a stable world. Less than a decade after the empire was divided, the three kingdoms were intrigued, and the church was ambitious, seeking to expand externally and become religious internally...... In short, they are in a transitional era, and as for the future, it is still unknown whether they will transition into a world of great unity of the Church, or a world of division between the great powers.

Therefore, in order to keep up with the pace of time, Benjamin can only constantly increase his strength and, more importantly, increase his influence.

He...... You have to be a chess player.

There was no one to teach him what to do, and Benjamin had to figure it out on his own.

It's also quite a headache......

In this way, while thinking about these questions, he led the team and walked towards the outside of the valley.

Suddenly.

"What sound?"

A small sound came from the forest not far ahead, interrupting everyone's footsteps. Suddenly, the mages stopped moving forward, and Benjamin came back to his senses and raised his eyebrows in some surprise.

However, just as he was about to use the water elemental sensing method to observe the movement in front of him, several figures suddenly came out from that side.

"Help, help!"
