Chapter 52—The Apostles Shall Not Be Known
"Little ......"
Thorne's warning came to an abrupt end with just one word, and he stared at the blade beast in Chen Yue's hand in surprise, his eyes full of disbelief.
Although the shadow was divided into two halves, it was still easy to recognize, it was a third-order demonic beast that was extremely good at lurking and sneaking attacks, this was a third-order demonic beast, even if it was as strong as a fifth-order fighter, Thorne was not sure that one hit would kill, let alone in such a thrilling situation, it was already very good to be able to exert half of its strength to repel it in an instant.
However, it was such an extremely unfavorable situation, but this third-order demonic beast was killed by a sword.
Spike?
These two words floated in Chen Yue's heart, could it be that the first ability of the blade beast is to kill in seconds?
This...... That's an exaggeration, isn't it?
But then Chen Yue shook his head vigorously and threw out this ridiculous speculation.
Even if there is really such a perverted ability as instant killing, it will not appear on a mere two-star blade beast.
But if it's true......
Chen Yue's mind flashed through the scene when he was in the spirit realm, and the blade beast still did not flinch in the face of the coercion of the eight-star demon, and when he thought of this, his mood suddenly became a little excited.
His eyes kept wandering around, what Chen Yue wanted most now was to take more demonic beasts to verify his ideas, but unfortunately, they had already retreated far away, and in a short period of time, except for this unexpected appearance of the Three Realms Demonic Beast, there was no other demonic beast within a hundred meters nearby.
Smacking his lips, Chen Yue's expression was a little unwilling, but Thorne grabbed him and retreated to the rear, it was no longer safe here. Soon, the two returned to the original camp of the Snow Goose Mercenary Group.
The mercenary group retreated in a hurry, and many large items were left behind, so the two of them found a random place to sit down and wait for the others to arrive.
After that trip just now, out of Thorne's unknown internal situation, the distribution of the Warcraft group has changed a lot, and the Warcraft from the other three directions have gathered over, and the Warcraft group at this moment has been unprecedentedly concentrated, and the people who will still chase the Snow Goose Mercenary Group are afraid that they are not even one percent, and they can no longer threaten the safety of the whole group.
His eyes wandered on the blade beast several times, Thorne's eyes burned, and he struggled a little, he could see that he could kill the third-order demonic beast in seconds, relying on this strange weapon, he didn't know the identity of the blade beast, but naturally thought of another possibility: a divine weapon.
I'm afraid that only these powerful weapons can easily kill the third-order demonic beasts.
Thinking of this, it is impossible to say that Thorne is not hot, if he gets the divine weapon, he is confident, even if he faces a sixth-order fighter, he has the power to fight.
However, it is ...... to attack one's own people.
All sorts of thoughts collided fiercely in his mind, and after a while, Thorne let out a long sigh of incomprehensible meaning, and resolutely looked away, never looking at the alluring blade beast half eyes again.
A silent smile appeared at the corner of his lips, and Chen Yue's fingers holding the blade beast loosened a little, and a big stone in his heart was abruptly put down.
Thorne looked at the blade beast's gaze, he noticed it immediately, and his body was ready to respond at any time, now he has not recovered to his best condition, if Thorne is really determined to kill people and seize the treasure, then, he can only choose to burn the jade.
Thankfully, Thorne eventually chose to give up.
"Good brother. In Chen Yue's mind, Thorne's status has risen to only below Ling Yue'er, Venya and others, and he is truly included in the list of trustworthy people.
You must know that Chen Yue is not his member at all, and he has a life-saving grace for Chen Yue, even if Chen Yue's reminder saved most people's lives before, if you insist on talking about it, it is just canceling each other, if you really want to start, there will be no psychological burden at all.
"No wonder the people of the Snow Goose Mercenary Group have such respect for him. This test made Chen Yue know more about Thorne's temperament: "Should I hide such a person from him?"
Chen Yue hesitated.
"Thorne ......"
"Huh?"
Shaking his head, Chen Yue suppressed the thoughts that suddenly erupted, unlike the blade beast that could only be a divine weapon, he knew that for other professions, the temptation of a low-level apostle to appear in a city far away from freedom was great, with the importance that the Apostolic Association valued each apostle, if the operation was good, there was a great possibility of knocking a sum from the Apostolic Association, and if Thorne really knew his identity, it would be difficult to guarantee that he could withstand such a huge temptation.
Such a test is completely unnecessary.
After a pause, Chen Yue casually picked a topic: "Thorne, how did your Snow Goose Mercenary Group come to the Ace Mountains?"
As soon as the words came out, Chen Yue regretted it, he had already decided to leave after the fact, isn't it nothing to look for, with his status as an apostle, it is easy to repay the Snow Goose Mercenary Group in the future, and there is no need to get involved in the treasure incident in front of him, saying this sentence at this time is easy for people to misunderstand.
"You don't know?" Thorne looked at Chen Yue in surprise: "Then why did you appear in the Ace Mountains?"
"Well, I'm cultivating here to make a breakthrough, and besides, I came in half a year ago and haven't been out. Considering that he also avoided the crowd when he came over, Chen Yue changed the time of entry to half a year.
"Cultivation?" Hearing this, Thorn muttered a few words in his heart, no wonder Chen Yue didn't want the fighting spirit cheats he provided, it turned out that people already had a better one.
The previous doubts have a reasonable explanation.
However, what kind of fighting qi gong method can actually exercise the strength of ** to such an extent, Thorne is really puzzled, coupled with the blade beast that is suspected of being a divine weapon, Chen Yue's origin is becoming more and more mysterious in his eyes.
Such a person can make friends if he can, and he must not be offended.
With such an understanding, Thorne's answer was also very refreshing.
"Actually, it's not a big secret, I'm afraid many people know it, Chen Yue, since you've been cultivating here for half a year, you should have seen a lot of adventurers, right?"
Chen Yue nodded, and described the tragic scene of corpses lying in the snow all over the world, which made Thorne sigh.
Clearing his throat, Thorne said: "The story of the incident starts from a month ago......"
As Chen Yue speculated, there is a treasure unearthed in the Ace Mountains.
A month ago, an adventurer came to the nearest city to the Ace Mountains, he was a member of a very famous mercenary group, many people knew him, so he was quickly treated, and then finally he was not saved because of his injuries. Then, a very strange thing happened, for three days, no one came to collect his relics.
You must know that the scale of the mercenary group where the adventurer is located is not small, and generally speaking, it is impossible for such an oolong incident to happen.
Unless, something happens.
Several mercenary groups that were in competition with them secretly inquired about the news, only to find out that three months ago, the members of this mercenary group poured out their bags to carry out a mysterious mission, and the content of the mission could not be found out in any way, and the matter ended here.
But a week later, a sensational news came back that the mercenary group had been wiped out.
There are as many as three fifth-order powerhouses in that mercenary group, and the lowest member is also third-order, such a strong strength is very important in any city, and when I first heard this news, no one believed it was true.
What kind of task is it that makes such a powerful force disappear?
Almost everyone's eyes focused on the relics of the only adventurer who came back alive, but unfortunately, they paid attention too late, ten days was enough time for a lot to happen, and the relics were gone.
Not long after the news of the annihilation came, a news spread, the Ace Mountains contained an astonishing number of treasures, even a small part of them could make a destitute person instantly rich and rival the country, many adventurers could not resist the temptation, and did not verify the truth of the news, so they came towards the Ace Mountains.
This first wave of people is the group of people who died outside the core area, most of them are carried away by interests, plus they don't know the horror of the Ace Mountains at all, and very few can go back alive.
Several large mercenary groups worked together to arrest the rumor-monger, find the vanished inheritance from his residence, and then the truth was revealed.
"There's a treasure map in there. Thorne smiled, his eyes a little gloomy: "However, it is not an ordinary treasure map, the people who got it at the beginning did not understand this, I am afraid that few people who came to the Ace Mountains knew its true value, and Snow Goose was lucky enough to participate in the analysis of the treasure map, and then, got an amazing secret." Speaking of which, being able to get this treasure map, the Bright Sun Mercenary Group died unjustly. ”
The Bright Sun Mercenary Group is the large mercenary group that has been wiped out by the entire army.
Pouting, Chen Yue didn't want to hear it anymore, he knew that since it was an amazing secret, then, I am afraid it was in the hands of a few people, Thorne may know, but he didn't need to tell it to himself.
"If Brother Chen Yue is interested, I am willing to share this secret with you. ”
"What?" Chen Yue's body shook, staring at Thorn with a calm face in surprise, and then, his eyelids narrowed slightly: "Why do you want to share it with me?"
"Because I don't have faith anymore. Thorne smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, this Warcraft incident has made me sober, in a place like the Ace Mountains, the number of people is not the key, I am the only one in our group who can barely come and go here freely, but it is not only our Snow Goose family who agreed to dig up the treasure together, if it is only me, I am afraid that there will not be much oil and water at all." ”
He looked directly into Chen Yue's eyes and said in a deep voice, "I need help, so I'm willing to share it with you." ”
Chen Yue smiled bitterly, the eyesight of the fifth-order fighter was really unusual, and he had already seen that his true strength exceeded that of the fourth-order, coupled with the blade beast that was suspected of having the ability to kill in seconds, I am afraid that he had already been put in an equal position.
Of course, after the second transformation, as long as he returned to his best state after two days, Chen Yue was also confident that he would not lose to any fifth-order professional, and with the addition of blade beasts, the odds of winning were even greater.
"I can think about it and say. After a moment of silence, Chen Yue bowed his head.
Upon hearing this, Thorne had a strange feeling, as if the other party was giving orders condescendingly, rather than on the basis of reciprocity.
Shaking his head weirdly, this time it was Thorne's turn to hesitate, Chen Yue's attitude was ambiguous, which made him very embarrassed, what if he told the secret, but Chen Yue didn't agree.
"Don't worry, if you're not interested in the secret you're talking about, I'll compensate you with something of equal value. Seeing Thorne's hesitation, Chen Yue said directly.
As soon as these words came out, Thorne was relieved, he knew that he knew people very accurately, and knew Chen Yue's personality, since he said it, he would definitely do it, not to mention, he was very confident in that secret, and he was not afraid that Chen Yue would not be moved......
"I naturally trust Brother Chen Yue, but before I tell the secret, I must make one point, this is also the unanimous decision of the people involved in the analysis of the treasure map. Slowly, Thorne's face became extremely serious.
"What decision?" said Chen Yueqi.
"This decision is ......," Thorne said in solemn terms:
"The apostles must not be made known. ”
Suddenly, Chen Yue's face became extremely strange.
