Chapter 34: The Mysterious Escort.

"Alright, I'll take the task. Liu Yan looked at the three of Hei Zhantian, "Go find the client." "Every mission client will be somewhere waiting for the mercenary group to come. And the place where the task client is waiting is also written on the token, which is only known to the mercenary group that took the task.

Liu Yan and the others did not drag in the slightest, and directly followed the instructions on the task token to the place where the task client was waiting. Liu Yan's task was entrusted to a forest, and Liu Yan and his party saw that there was a small courtyard in the woods, and there were two people guarding its door. "Stop!" Liu Yan and his party stopped. "We belong to the mercenary group. After Liu Yan finished speaking, he took out the mission token. The two guards glanced at each other, "Xiao Wu, you take them in." One of the men said, seemingly larger. Subsequently, the man known as Xiao Wu took Liu Yan and the others to the room in the small courtyard.

After entering, I saw an old man sitting on a stool. "The mercenary group is finally here. The old man was dressed in cloth and his slender beard was his greatest feature. As soon as Liu Yan wanted to ask this old man, the old man spoke, "My surname is Ding, don't ask me what I'm escorting, just know that the enemy you are facing is also a walker in the early stage of the body or below." Our destination is the Land of Ice, and we can go now. The old man answered everything Liu Yan and the others wanted to ask, but this attitude and tone made Liu Yan and his party a little angry, but they couldn't express it. Because if Liu Yan and the others make this old man dissatisfied, this old man can report to the mercenary union, and then Liu Yan's honor of the mercenary group will be damaged again. Therefore, Liu Yan and the others endured it.

Then Liu Yan saw a carriage in the courtyard, with a box of things pulled behind it, which looked quite ordinary. "Let's go. The old man surnamed Ding said, and then the two guards also followed the old man surnamed Ding into the carriage that pulled the goods. In this way, Liu Yan and the others started the first task, but the only thing that worried Liu Yan was that this old man refused to reveal what the escort was. "Is it a rare treasure?" Liu Yan thought so.

Liu Yan and his party were in another carriage, in front of the carriage escorting the items. The Land of Streamers and the Land of Ice have special passages, and of course they don't pass through the Land of Chaos. When Liu Yan went to the mainland of the Streamer Country, he entered through the east gate of the Streamer Country, but the city gate they were going to exit at the moment was the south gate, so they would spend a day to get to the south gate. As long as the mainland is still in the Streamer Country, it is safe, so Liu Yan and his party are also slightly relaxed, but the old man is the opposite, Liu Yan and Hei Zhantian were talking, and they accidentally saw that the old man was slightly sweaty on his forehead, and his expression was still a little nervous. Especially whenever a patrol came to inquire, the old man was even more flustered, but then calmed down again. This surprised Liu Yan, Liu Yan also signaled to Hei Zhantian, and Hei Zhantian also saw the abnormal side of this old man.

At night, Hei Zhantian proposed to rest in the city for the night, even though it was in the city, it was inevitable that he would not encounter robbers when passing through the woods at night. The old man also agreed, and that night Liu Yan called the three of Hei Zhantian to his room.

"Brother Zhantian, you have also noticed that old man's abnormal phenomenon. "Hmm. Hei Zhantian also replied, "This old man is different from what we have always encountered, the previous task clients are very relaxed in the city, not like this old man, slightly nervous, I'm afraid there is something wrong with the things we are escorting." But if there is something problematic, the mercenary union will not accept it. Hei Zhantian expressed his opinion.

"That's why I've called you here tonight, and I'm going to elaborate on the arrangements for leaving the city. Since Hei Rou has just reached the stage of physical fitness, he must be extra careful, and Brother Hei Hai must also pay attention to the old man when he is beside Hei Rou. And Brother Zhan Tian has the highest cultivation among us, so you will protect me. Saying this, Liu Yan smiled slyly. This made Hei Zhantian and the three of them wonder very much, Liu Yan's strength is about the same as that of Hei Hai, why do they need Hei Zhantian to protect him. "Brother Zhan Tian, you can see that my strength is still in the pure body stage now. After Liu Yan's exploration of the Void Technique, he also found that the strength displayed by this Void Technique was one order lower than the real strength. Hei Zhantian seriously felt Liu Yan's strength and found that this was indeed the case.

"If you are an enemy, see that the other party has two first-order and second-order bodies on one side, and third-order and pure-order bodies on the other. Which side would you choose to attack?" asked Liu Yan again, Hei Zhantian. "Of course, there is a pure body stage over there, although there is a third-order body, but if you want to protect that pure body, your combat effectiveness will definitely drop a lot. "That's right, I'm just going to be caught off guard." It also created a false impression for the old man, so that he also thought that I was the only one of us. Of course, when encountering the enemy, the big brother of the Black Sea, don't watch us being attacked, it will be too easy to be seen. Detail the situation to see the dangers encountered at the time, remember, improvise. Of course, if the fake drama is really done, Brother Hei Zhantian will be our leader,"

On the second day, Liu Yan and others set off before dawn, the old man was not as nervous as yesterday, and when it was almost noon, Liu Yan and others came to the south gate, and when they were checking, the old man was also slightly nervous, but the city guard did not open the box to see, but asked the old man casually, and let Liu Yan and others go. When he walked out of the city gate, the old man suddenly relaxed a lot, but Liu Yan and the others increased their vigilance.

"Everyone, pay attention, remember what I told me last night. Liu Yan reminded. And Liu Yan also prepared the dagger hidden in the cuff. Perhaps because it was so close to the gates, there were no robbers. But the corners of the old man's mouth were slightly upturned, and he even closed his eyes sometimes, as if he was enjoying himself. The guards beside him were also nervous, without the nervousness of Liu Yan and the others.

Looking at the sun that was about to set in the sky, it was already evening. "Everyone, find a place to rest for the night. Hei Zhantian said. The old man didn't object. "I'll be the first to keep watch tonight. Hei Zhantian said. However, just as Liu Yan and the others were about to rest, a dark arrow shot at Liu Yan from the grass. "Fire brothers, be careful. As soon as the Black Sea whip came out, it entangled the dark arrow, and the black battle sky immediately ran to the grass where the dark arrow was placed, but when the black war sky arrived, it was empty. "Damn, let the man run. Hei Zhantian said viciously.

After Hei Zhantian returned to the resting place, he reminded, "Be careful, someone is already eyeing us." ”

Liu Yan and the others were destined to not be able to sleep soundly tonight, but there was a snoring sound from the old man's tent. "This dead old man. Black Rou said disdainfully. "Sure enough. And Liu Yan had another idea in his heart.

The first mission of Liu Yan's mercenary group was so difficult, but it made Liu Yan a little excited. "The strong always grow in desperate situations. ”...... (To be continued)
