Chapter 9 The Heavenly Pass

Jiawen hurriedly grabbed Pudongtu's wrist to stabilize his body, but the lionman's strength was so strong, and the sharp dagger pierced Jiawen's chest, sinking into the flesh little by little. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info Hale heard the wind wrong, turned his head to see this thrilling scene, and his fingers touched Pudongtu's elbow joint without hesitation. Pudongtu was no longer able to use his strength at all by Hale, and the dagger fell with Gavin's blood, Hale grabbed the dagger and resisted Pudongtu, and said in a trembling voice: "Let go, lionman." ”

Pu Dongtu let go of Jiawen, whose face was pale, took a deep breath and closed his eyes: "Do what you have to do." ”

Hale asked, "Why?"

Pudongtu opened his eyes and looked at his long-time partner: "I don't have a choice, old man. He closed his eyes in a flash.

Hale was about to cut his neck, but Garvin interrupted him: "Wait. Hale looked at Gavin suspiciously, and the prince took the dagger from his hand and said, "I'll come." Then the dagger plunged deep into Phutto's heart.

"Thank you. ”

The lion man died soon, and Gawain didn't interrogate him, there were so many people in the world who wanted to get rid of the Philippe royal family that he was no longer in the mood to torture every killer.

The fog grew thicker and thicker, Hale helped Gavin back to the camp, Suman's words of inquiry were interrupted by Gawen's wave, and others stopped asking, but the disappeared vice-captain had already explained everything.

We continued our trudging through the rune swamps, most of them hanging up their dots, so the pace of the line was slow. Hahn and I were left behind in the group, and Gavin's injury and Putuntu's departure made me pay attention to the Darkblood Brotherhood again.

I whispered to Hahn, "Hahn, how much do you know about the Brotherhood?"

Hahn glared at me, "What do you want to know? ”

As soon as I saw that there was a door, I hurriedly continued to ask: "They are not a killer organization, why do they still carry out so many assassinations?"

"To this day, no one knows their purpose. ”

"But they have so many killers, they will always catch a few torturers. ”

Hahn said to me with a serious face, "More than ninety percent of the killers are not from the Brotherhood, but are threatened with their lives. ”

I didn't expect that there would be this layer, the Brotherhood actually threatened outsiders to complete the task, no wonder they have so many killers, giving people a sense of pervasiveness, it turned out to be directly looking for the people around the target to threaten to sell their lives. Not only does this practice protect the organization, but it is also difficult to prevent, and the methods are really vicious.

"Of course, for some important goals, their people will take it personally, or be involved. Hahn added.

"How do you know so much?"

"Because I've been threatened. Hahn said no more, and quickened his pace to keep up with the figure in front of him, and I didn't want to ask again, and silently followed.

Behind me was David the archer, and after he saved my life, we were hardcore teammates, and although he was still a rookie, he had the talent of an archer and Quincy's guidance, and he was sure to become a fledgling newcomer soon.

"Why is the Rune Swamp called the Rune Swamp? It seems that there are not many rune masters living in seclusion here, right?" David asked me.

I carefully recalled the legend about the Rune Swamp and explained to him, "Because of the ancient kingdom of Limma, it was destroyed by a group of rune masters. ”

"Oh, can you tell me more about it? David asked curiously, and of course I would satisfy his curiosity.

"The development of the ancient kingdom of Limma broke the calm of the swamp, and those capable and frantic rune masters laid one rune after another around the ancient kingdom, and finally connected into a terrifying barrier, destroying Limma, and in that disaster, the terrain sank, and the basin that was already full of water was completely flooded into a swamp. ”

"Enchantment, aren't they runemasters?"

It seems that David knows too little about magicians, in fact, I only know a little about it, so I can only continue to say as much as possible: "How can I say it? In fact, the connotation of magic is the same, they all rely on the power of the elements, but ・・・・・・ manifestations are different, it is difficult for the enchantment master's enchantment to last for a long time, but the rune master can leave runes, and what the enchantment master can't do can be done by giving the rune master enough time to do it." ”

"Isn't that runemaster too powerful?"

"It depends on the situation, the division of labor of each type of magician is different, and the rune master is indeed a powerful existence with combat ability, and even some rune masters can directly recite rune spells to complete rune magic without the help of solids and gases, which is indeed a terrifying existence. ”

The team walked out of the Rune Swamp on the same day, in fact, we didn't go deep into the swamp, but just grazed the southern territory, but the trouble encountered in the past two days also caused the team to lose their vitality. Hale breathed a sigh of relief as he stepped on the hard rocky soil, and looked back at the swamp, which was still white, and it seemed that countless ghosts were still haunting, which was terrifying.

Leaving the swamp, we arrived at the foot of the mountain, and the 5,000-mile-long Shenjian Mountain Range has a pass to the sky to give travelers a way to the warm south, like a gap in the long sword, adding to the sense of antiquity.

The pass was also two thousand meters high, and the team soon began their journey up the mountain, with a few antelopes jumping out of the rocks from time to time. The steep mountain roads quickly drained our strength, and some of the large beasts fled far away when they saw our formation, but we also knew that the biggest threat here was the primitive mountain clans, who camped their camps among the rocks, domesticated jackals, tigers and leopards, and waited for passers-by to visit.

Gario, who was walking next to Gavin, suddenly pointed to the mountain in the distance and made a few gestures to Gavin.

"Someone is staring at us. Gavin explained to Hale.

Hale took a sip of water and felt much better: "The wildlings are already eyeing us, and when they gather enough men they think they will run over with a shout, and then we will teach them some lessons." ”

This is really the easiest thing to do, because no one wants to take the initiative in the steep rocky terrain, and no one can catch up with the wild people in the rock pile, except for the flying ones.

The first day was Christmas Eve, and by the next night we were approaching the pass, and we had found a great rock on the most campy side, and Hale told us what had happened, and we were all half-asleep waiting for the wild men to come to us. I had slept for an hour when I heard the sound of howling coming from all directions, accompanied by the howls of various beasts, which together were earth-shattering, and the sound rolled like a stormy wave.

"Why are there so many?" Hale solemnly pulled out the bronze sword, a black sword aura wrapped around the long sword and Hale's palm, and he faintly felt that this night might not be easy.
