Chapter 44: The Underground Refining Room

As a student of the Warrior Academy, Modi rented a small warship from the Imperial City to go to Rhodes Fortress, and he got 10,000 gold coins for a one-way trip, and I heard that this is still an internal preferential price, and outsiders get 15,000.

Li Xiaomo calculated, 20,000 back and forth, these two stupid children each bought ten spirit shaking grenades, and they didn't see a single gold coin, so they threw out 40,000 first.

According to Modi, they must arrive at the Rhodes fortress tomorrow morning, otherwise the large army will leave and it will be in vain, but fortunately, the speed of the small warship is very fast, and there is still time to go.

Li Xiaomo sat in the cockpit meditating, while Modi and Frank watched excitedly as others drove the warship, they had always wanted a small warship, which also represented the strength of the mercenary group, but unfortunately the warship was too expensive, so they could only think about it.

The Rhodes Fortress was the most important line of defense on the western front of the Lanfeng Front, a huge fortification that was more than 100 feet high, spanning two huge peaks in the north and south, and the mountains were densely packed with forts, and small warships could sometimes be seen shuttling out of the fortress.

The small warship that Li Xiaomo and the others were riding belonged to Lan Feng, so they quickly obtained permission to enter the fortress.

After identifying themselves, he learned that the three of them were students of the Warrior Academy and a mercenary group participating in this mission, and the soldiers took them to the conference room at the meeting point, and on the way, he also advised the three to learn to serve the military and not always think about being mercenaries.

Modi and Frank naturally scoffed when they heard this, but Li Xiaomo felt that what people said was very reasonable, what is the good of being a mercenary?

Entering the conference room, Li Xiaomo saw Anderson sitting at the main seat of the conference table at first sight, and Anderson also saw them, and the eyes of the two sides went through a short battle.

"Huh, aren't these two stupid mercenaries? and they're still here, what's the matter? and find another one in a cloak? He's an elementalist? I don't think it's very good, hahaha. A one-eyed man at the conference table to Anderson's left laughed.

A row of men sitting behind him also laughed.

Modi was furious when he saw this man and shouted, "Kate, what the are you arrogant? ”

Anderson was a little surprised, but also very excited, he originally thought that Li Xiaomo and his party were also transferred by the military, but now it seems that they are mercenaries, and he coughed dryly at the moment: "If you want to fight, you can go out to fight, if you are not honest, I don't mind letting the guards come over to teach you." "He's very proud because he represents the military, and no matter how ruthless Modi is, he has to listen to him when he comes here.

Kate didn't want to quarrel anymore, and sneered at Modi: "Boy, you have to remember what you say, let's see." ”

Where did Modi suffer, scolding: "I'm going to be afraid of you?"

Li Xiaomo glanced at the conference room, there were at least more than a hundred mercenaries here, and the momentum was not weak, he knew that if he wanted to become a mercenary, he had to be a first-order warrior or elemental master, which was still the minimum standard, generally speaking, those who dared to go out to be mercenaries had some foundation, and fifth-order elemental masters like him were estimated to be at the bottom.

And is it really easy for Modi and Frank to call on so many people for the so-called simple task of the military?

The door of the conference room opened, and a middle-aged man in military uniform entered, followed by Nangong Zhixi and Jace.

The middle-aged man walked to the conference table, Anderson hurriedly got up, and welcomed the middle-aged man over to sit down, showing a flattering smile: "Your Excellency General, please take a seat." ”

The general sat down and motioned for Nangong Zhixi to sit down beside him, and Modi muttered softly: "This kid's kung fu is really good." ”

Nangong Zhixi looked a little surprised when she saw Li Xiaomo and his party, and then quietly scanned the audience and observed the people on this trip.

The general coughed dryly: "Nangong Zhixi, you are the person in charge of this operation, let you introduce it." ”

Nangong Zhixi said: "Everyone, you have also read the mission report, we were suddenly attacked in the refining room of Tairuo Canyon, the current situation is unknown, our task is to enter the refining room to investigate the attack.

Before the operation, I would like to state to you that because it is a mission led by the Lanfeng military, I, as well as Jace and Anderson behind me, are responsible for the overall command of the operation, and I hope that everyone can unite and cooperate to successfully complete the mission.

If you have no doubts, I will explain the details of the refining room on the warship. ”

After a moment of silence, seeing that no one was talking, he nodded, said "go", got up and walked out.

The military had already prepared a medium-sized warship for them, and as soon as the people arrived, they flew out of the fortress, and finally the ship landed next to a low stone building on the northwest side of the canyon.

At this moment, the sky was already bright, and Li Xiaomo looked at this inconspicuous stone house, and had a faint bad premonition in his heart.

According to Nangong Zhixi, the refining room is built underground, with a total of three floors, connected to the tunnel of Tairuo Canyon, the terrain here is very complex and huge, before the attack, no one called for help, indicating that Yuan Li was interfered with, this was a sudden attack.

There were more than a hundred warriors in the refining room, many of them were elite warriors, and in addition, there was an elite squad of two hundred people stationed there, but they obviously didn't escape.

Opening the entrance, there was an inexplicable power mixed with the dark and damp aura, which was the reason why the Yuan Force was disturbed.

Nangong Zhixi brought a total of nine mercenaries, except for the only three of "Roar", the rest were at least a dozen people, and she, Jace and Anderson also brought ten warriors, this force was already very strong, stronger than the previous defense force.

Even so, the crowd was still a little nervous, it was so quiet, it was frighteningly quiet.

The spotlight is on, which is uniformly configured by the military, and the spirit stone can support the uninterrupted work of the spotlight for at least 24 hours.

Under the light, there were many blood stains around, but there were no corpses.

Nangong Zhixi left two mercenaries to search on the first floor, and took the rest down to the second floor.

It was the same as the first floor, and there was no sign of it, the only thing they could see was blood, and the cold, musty smell of the wind irritated their brains.

Nangong Zhixi had to leave two more mercenaries, and then entered the third floor.

This place is obviously much larger than the first and second floors, there are traces of fighting in the wide room, and there are a few axes on the ground, Li Xiaomo's eyes are sharp, and he found a spirit shaking grenade and hurriedly picked it up.

However, he was even more worried, what kind of power did the people here fail to throw out even the Spirit Shaking Grenade?

Nangong Zhixi assigned the task, including the people she brought herself, and there are currently six teams, each of whom searches according to the established route.

Due to the lack of strength of the roaring people, she thought about dividing a few people from her side, but was stopped by Jace and Anderson, and Li Xiaomo didn't want her to be embarrassed, so he took Modi and Frank away.
