Chapter 40: The Return

In the afternoon of the next day, the employer's people rushed over without any problems, and this time the team was much larger than theirs, with hundreds of people. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

It's just that among the hundreds of people, slaves account for two-thirds, and there are only more than a hundred mercenaries and technicians, which is not much more than them. From the conversations of the mercenaries, Huo Tao knew that it was only a D-class mercenary group, and its strength was far from that of the Earth Bear mercenary group.

"Also, if the strength is equal to that of the Earth Bear, it is estimated that I will not do such a permanent mission. Huo Tao thought in his heart, this mercenary group is not only to escort the employer to open a mine here, but also to be stationed in the mine and be responsible for the safety of the mine, such a task is undoubtedly less difficult, at least not as tough as the one-horned demon wolf.

Of course, if you are unlucky, you may also encounter a situation like the Nether Wolf Pack, which depends on some luck, and in the Warcraft Forest, this kind of luck is also very important. In the worst case, the A-class mercenary group may also be wiped out.

The two sides quickly completed the handover, and the additional task reward Wood was paid directly to the mercenary group, and the basic mission reward was to be collected at the mercenary union when he returned to the base.

Additional quest pay, i.e., the reward for building a defensive wall, and others, including the slaying of the unicorn wolf and the gold-eating ant, are all paid by the mercenary guild, and those are all part of the original mercenary mission.

One thousand two hundred magic coins, Huo Tao directly obtained four hundred and eighty magic coins, four hundred and eighty magic coins, a big bag of shiny and shiny, which made him feel like a local tyrant for the first time.

"It's really easy for magicians to make money! It's even easier for this Warcraft Forest to make money! No wonder there are countless people who come here one after another, knowing that they may die at any time!" Huo Tao sighed again.

Outside, gold coins are the main trading currency, but here, gold coins seem to have lost their usefulness, everything is calculated in magic coins, and four hundred and eighty magic coins have been earned in a few days casually.

On the third day, the team embarked on the return journey, and on the return journey, Huo Tao still served as the pioneer of the road, although they had already walked this road, the danger on the road still existed, and the people from the employer rushed over and sacrificed five escorted mercenaries, which was still their luck and did not encounter the ghost wolf.

However, compared to coming over, the return journey has become much safer, and along the way, the mercenary group has also become much easier.

Huo Tao naturally relaxed a little, opened the road during the day, studied and wrote magic patterns at night, and lived a very fulfilling life, but the mana was also rapidly consumed, and before he returned to the base, the mana was basically exhausted.

Of course, this is also what he deliberately consumed, after all, when he returns to the base, he will enter the portal again to return to the magic continent, and he can replenish his mana in the portal again.

There were two days left to return to the base, Huo Tao became more relaxed, and even whistled along the way.

"There seems to be someone hiding in the mountains and forests ahead...... The man was staring at us...... "When passing by a valley, when he looked up by chance, Huo Tao suddenly saw a human head emerging from the woods above the cliff in front of him, and the human head was hidden in the bushes, if it weren't for his eyesight, he wouldn't have seen that there were people there. Looking closely, they saw that the man had been staring at their team.

"Oh, it's okay, these thieves only dare to look for those little mercenary groups, and they don't dare to trouble our mercenary groups. A mercenary smiled and shook his head, he obviously didn't take this seriously, the thieves group is normal, if there is no thieves group, it is not normal, but with the strength of the Earth Bear mercenary group, there is really no need to worry about those thieves.

"It's better to be careful, a group of thieves is not afraid, if they are united, it will still be more troublesome. Hult, be careful, don't be careless, Sam, and get the mercenary group ready for battle. McWell shook his head, though he didn't think the thieves were targeting them, but there was nothing wrong with being careful.

"En!" Huo Tao nodded, Sai Lun didn't remind him, he wouldn't be careless, these mercenaries may be used to seeing thieves, but he really hasn't seen them, so naturally he doesn't dare to take them lightly.

His eyes searched carefully everywhere, not letting go of any suspicious places, not to mention, this attention, suddenly found an abnormality.

"Deputy Commander Sailun, there are people on the slopes on both sides of the hill ahead, and there are thirty-three people I can be sure...... Approximately distributed in ......" Huo Tao searched carefully, and said with a slightly solemn face, what he could see could not be all of those thieves, but only a part, or even just a small part, therefore, he pointed out the location of those people, and the specific judgment, McWeill They are obviously more professional than him.

"Thirty-three, Holt, you can't be mistaken, even if there are so many people in ambush, it is impossible for them all to poke their heads out to see......" The mercenary who was exploring the path obviously did not believe it.

"Shut up...... McWell gestured to stop and scolded the mercenary.

"Well......" the mercenary muttered in a low voice.

"You idiot, you don't use your brain, you can see a human head hiding in the grass 1,500 meters away?" the other mercenary scolded unceremoniously.

"If I could see it, I'd be developed...... But I can't see it, what does it have to do with it?" the mercenary was still unconvinced.

"To call you stupid is to exalt you, you can't see those thieves, would those thieves think that any of us can see them?"

"This ......" The mercenary suddenly understood, indeed, who would have thought that someone would be able to see the human head hidden in the grass more than a thousand meters away, and naturally he would not be guarded against being seen by them.

McWeill didn't pay attention to the muttering of the two, he didn't have the slightest doubt, Holt's eyesight had already been recognized by them, if it weren't for that, he would have given Huo Tao such a high treatment? His eyes were searching around, but not looking for those heads, he didn't have that eyesight, he just looked for the possible arrangement of the other party according to the location pointed out by Hult and the nearby terrain.

"What's the situation?" At this time, it was already close to the base, and the danger on the road was relatively less, and the large team was basically next to the sentry team, and the Seren in the rear stopped looking ahead, quickly followed, and asked in a low voice.

"It is estimated that there are about 300 people in am......bush ahead," McWeill said slowly, based on the terrain and the information provided by Hort, he could probably estimate the situation of the other party.

"About 300 people, it seems that someone is probably eyeing us. Selen's face was slightly solemn, this is the Warcraft Realm, not the Wizarding Realm, and the thieves of hundreds of people in the Wizarding World are just a little trouble, here, the thieves of hundreds of people are not joking.

After all, there are no ordinary thieves here, and it can even be said that there are no low-level martial artists here at all, in such a place, low-level martial artists have no ability to survive at all, besides, low-level martial artists can't come here through the portal at all, and martial artists below the fourth level basically have no possibility of passing through the portal.

Therefore, in the Warcraft world, the worst are all mid-level martial artists, and high-level martial artists are considered to be the mainstream, if not, they would not be able to have less than a hundred mercenary groups in the C-level peak state. In the wizarding world, there are hundreds of people in any mid-level mercenary group.

A group of thieves of hundreds of people, that should be nothing, hundreds of thieves, that should be the union of countless bands of thieves, the combination of thieves is not so easy, and it requires a lot of time to gather and arrange, if there is no specific targeting, it is obviously impossible.

"On the hillside over there, Hot found fifteen people, according to the terrain of that area, it should be an important ambush point for them, it is estimated that a large number of rolling wood and stones have been prepared, and the other is to block our back road, according to these circumstances, I judge that there should be about eighty people there, and the two of us are now taking people to the small road, and we will take them directly. McWeil made the arrangement.

"If we both leave, will it be ......" Selen was slightly worried, they can be regarded as the backbone of the mercenary group, both of them have left, then the whole team will have no command, once something happens, it will be very dangerous.

"A group of thieves of three hundred people, it is also a loss to fight us head-on, if the other party has a powerful magician, we basically have no chance of winning......" McWeil smiled bitterly, the two of them went over, it was naturally a bit of a risky element, but if they didn't take the risk of sneaking up on the enemy and setting up a team to fight the other party head-on, the risk they took was undoubtedly greater.

"Deputy Head Sailen, stay, and Captain McWell and I will bring someone over. Old Hill hesitated for a moment, and slowly spoke, they are now also a member of the mercenary group, the mercenary group is dangerous, they are naturally dangerous, and the mercenary group is really good to their master and servant, and he is still willing to contribute to the mercenary group.

"Then there's Lord Rothcher. "Old Hill took the initiative to ask for battle, McWeil naturally couldn't ask for it, this is also the most reasonable arrangement, but Old Hill does not belong to the mercenary group, even if he can't arrange Old Hill.

"There's their sentry over there, ...... on that big tree" Several people discussed countermeasures, Huo Tao was not idle, he used his true eyes to search the surroundings carefully.

"Your Excellency Hill, I'll go and deal with the people first, and then you bring people over. McWeill explained, quickly waved his hand, and led a person into the grass next to him, this area is considered an area of human activity, and there are relatively few monsters and monsters, and it is even difficult to see, and the threat is mainly from humans themselves.

Syren quickly arranged the manpower, one by one the mercenaries quietly followed the old Hill into the grass next to him, quietly approaching the other party's lurking area, and the speed of the large team also slowed down slightly, and all the mercenaries were ready to fight, including the magician.

However, on the surface, it seems that nothing is happening, and the team is moving as usual, but the speed is slowing down, and it is not easy to detect it for a while.
