Since the people of the Mercenary Association left and Xu Wen went into retreat, the Scarlet Alliance has received more and more orders and vigilance, and Ono has been busy every day, in order to improve the Shengfang fortifications and deal with the increasing number of civilian mercenary organizations that are pouring into Honghui Town.

This is a strange phenomenon that the Scarlet Alliance has never seen before!

It is also the most lively time in the history of Honghui Town.

The increasingly severe beast tide, yes, this town that is not usually cared for by the monsters has begun to vigorously arrange city defenses, and that's it;Recently, several civilian mercenary groups with high prestige have settled in Honghui Town, ranging from four-star to eight-star masters, so that all the hotels and restaurants in Honghui Town have a booming business, and the business is unprecedented, and some residents' residences have even begun to accept mercenaries to rent, which has scared many marauders into shrinking.

Honghui Town has entered the peak season, the streets are crowded, many people set up stalls on the spot, and the town has become much more prosperous.

But in Ono's opinion, the situation is not good at all

It's so unusual!

It's so weird!

According to those civilian mercenary groups, if it is just to find a safe and stable rear dispatch of people and horses to resist the tide of beasts, Honghui Town is a bit too far.

And judging by some of the characters who came into town to visit them

They seem to be showing signs of being permanent.

Although it is ostensibly beneficial to Honghui Town, the mercenary group that is increasingly appearing in the eyes of the town's civilians has made more and more people pay attention to their existence, and he, the city lord who usually tries to maintain the stability of the town, seems to be getting farther and farther away from this noisy city.

Day.

When Ono summoned his personal guards to discuss the matter in the backyard hall, someone from outside came:

"City Lord, Elder Xie asks to see you. ”

"Old Xie?"

Ono was stunned, and the unfamiliar and unclear face came to mind.

"Let him in. ”

For more than a month, Xu Wen was in retreat, and the evil old man was also in deep seclusion, and he remembered that the last time they met was because Xu Wen asked him to ask about the news of the Beast Tide and the Qingyun Empire, and that meeting made him recognize the wrong person.

The evil old man's withered and terrifying face disappeared, and he became fleshy, like a normal person, and when he was calm, he still had a bit of a kind eyebrow.

The black-robed "Xie Lao" quietly crossed silently.

"I've seen the lord of the castle. His tone was cold, and he nodded and raised his head. Not to mention politeness, let alone respect.

On the contrary, Ono was very polite to Xie Lao:

"Haha, you're welcome, but Brother Xu Wen sent you to be old?"

Xie Lao's cold face softened slightly, and he nodded:

"The master asked me to ask, what's going on in the town recently?" Xie Lai has returned to a more normal and popular old face, and now even if you know each other, I am afraid it is very rare for him to overlap with the original "evil elder".

"It's a bit of a thing"

Ono sighed with emotion, and said the recent anomalies in the town, and finally sighed helplessly:

"The leaders of several civilian mercenary groups came to see me, and said that they would set up a temporary command point here, and centrally dispatch people and horses, and the ghost knows what their plans are, anyway, I can't refuse. It is estimated that more and more people will come here in the future. ”

"Which civilian mercenary groups?"

Xie Lao raised his eyes, revealing a look of suspicion and vigilance. These days, he is also busy mastering eight-star magic and demonic body, and he knows less about the outside world.

Ao Nuo knew that this question was not what Xu Wen wanted to ask, and he didn't care, and slowly spit out two words in his mouth:

"Wolves. ”

When it came to Xie Lao's sudden look of surprise and solemnity, Ao Nuo didn't feel anything other than that.

Each of the top ten civilian mercenary groups of the Scarlet Alliance has more than one million official members, and the "wolf pack" ranks seventh, with two nine-star powerhouses, known as the undying super mercenary group - the comprehensive strength is comparable to half of the royal mercenary group!

The strength is so strong that the official mercenary group does not dare to take it lightly.

Even after the demonization, Xie Lao was just an inconspicuous particle in the "wolf pack". No wonder Xie Lai was so moved.

Coming out of Ao Nuo's room, Xie Lao walked straight into another room not far away that was guarded by two guards.

As soon as the two saw Xie Lao, they nodded and got out of the way.

Xie Lao walked in as if the two of them did not exist. Step on a small teleportation array

In the low cultivation room, Elder Xie had just entered. Dark power poured out of its own accord, isolating the scorching waves of fire from the skin.

"Coming?"

The indifferent voice sounded in the cultivation room.

Xie Lao glanced up at the black wind eagle hovering in the low-altitude room, and the giant tiger with a slender slit on his forehead, every time he came over, the two contract beasts had a relatively obvious entrance, he was used to it.

Hearing this, his eyes moved to Xu Wen behind the contract beast, and nodded respectfully:

"Master, according to the information that Ono has, the wolves have entered Honghui Town, and there is an advertisement in the middle.

"What about the Qingyun Empire?"

"The war is still going on, and Qingyun has completely fallen into the chaos of war. ”

“”

Xu Wen, who was sitting quietly beside Xiaohu, finally opened his eyes, his clear eyes flashed with a touch of indifferent sorrow, and he muttered: "The war in the Qingyun Empire has not yet been settled, but the Scarlet Alliance has begun to mess up, and that news does not seem to have attracted the attention of the high-level of the Scarlet Alliance." "The news that the Dark Empire has an artifact was released by him through the "old man".

"If it were me, I wouldn't believe this rumor. ”

Xie Lao replied with a lowered gaze.

Through these days of getting along, he still has a little understanding of Xu Wen's temperament, and knows that he is not a person who will lose his temper casually.

Xu Wen smiled:

"Old Xie, I know your curiosity, but don't try to provoke me to tell the source of the rumors in this way, that's not the realm you can peep into. If you know, your life will be in danger. ”

“”

Xie Laoyi, Eg, Eg, Song, Fence, Cha Bo, br/>

Xu Wen ignored Xie Lao's reaction, still turned his back to him, and his tone was calm and worried:

"If the Scarlet Alliance doesn't pay attention to this news, sooner or later it will follow in the footsteps of the Qingyun Empire, and it will be defeated by the Dark Empire after a long period of war.

Xie Lao frowned and did not speak.

For him, the Scarlet Alliance is the most powerful country in the Soul Continent, and the Alliance, even against the Dark Empire, has absolutely no chance of being defeated.

Xu Wen's words are really sensational!

However, Xu Wen was not surprised by Xie Lao's silence at all, and sat up from the ground, "If you don't believe me, there is no way." He turned around as he spoke. The Decisive Way:

But it's no longer a suitable place for us to take with us, and we're ready to leave. ”

"Where are you going?"

Old Xie didn't really want to stay in Honghui Town either. The anomaly here makes him uneasy, and there are many wolves in the pack, in case the secret of his demonization is discovered. It is bound to be heroic and unnecessary stable.

"Just get out of here. ”

Xu Wen also had no purpose, so he sorted it out casually, put away the contract beast, and left the underground cultivation room without the slightest hesitation.

Although this was very different from his original plan, and his cultivation had not yet entered the Seven Stars, Honghui Town was no longer the original remote town.

"Lord Xu. ”

"You're out of the customs, great! I'll hand it over to the city lord!"

The two guards guarding outside the door were startled, and hurriedly prepared to inform O Nuo, but were stopped by Xu Wen

"No need, you can give this to him for me." ”

Xu Wen took out a bottle of "marrow washing liquid" from his Baibao belt and said to the two: "This thing is of some help to the Demon Swordsman, and it can be regarded as a reward for his acceptance these days, and also help me bring a word."

At the end, a huge black bird appeared in the courtyard.

The Black Wind Eagle spreads its steely wings. There was a long roar, carrying Xu Wen and Xie Lao who came up. Lift off and leave

By the time Ono was notified, the Black Wind Eagle had long since disappeared.

"Why don't you stop them, alas, forget it. Ao Nuo held the marrow washing liquid in his hand, with a look of ruthlessness, and then he was helpless, Xu Wen left in such a hurry, how dare the guards stop people.

"What did you say he relayed?"

Ono asked the two guards.

After the guard answered, Ono pondered for a long time with a confused face, and finally the news came from the city lord's mansion: "The city lord is seriously ill, and no outsiders are seen." All city defense affairs are taken over by the subordinate commanders. ”

The Black Wind Eagle spread its wings in the air, and the flight speed of the five-star and fourth-order was already far superior to that of the same level of owls. After a while, Hongyun Town became a small shadow behind him, quickly disappearing on the horizon. Xie Lao looked at Xu Wen who was standing proudly on the back of the eagle with a strange face, and was still pondering the meaning of Xu Wen's words to Ao Nuo - "In extraordinary times, don't be on the cusp." If you can avoid it, you can avoid it" looked at Xu Wen's more handsome and mature side face. Xie Lao sometimes really doubts that the richest man himself is this child, or is it the temperament and mystery that he can't say?

After being silent for a long time, Xie Lao noticed that the Black Wind Eagle seemed to be heading towards a certain Demonic Beast Mountain Range.

Thinking of the news sent back by the Mercenary Group Association during this time, his face turned pale and × playing?br/>

"Master, where are we going?"

"Haven't you always been curious about my strength?" Xu Wentou didn't reply:

"Now I'm going to do something, which can let you know a secret that has never been known, and there is no way to avoid you in this matter" After speaking, he saw that Xie Lao's seriousness was a little uneasy, and he smiled slightly: "Of course, because there is no need for this, you won't say it, and you don't dare to say it." ”

Xie Lao's serious confusion and uneasiness were even stronger. After so many years in the mercenary world, he knows very well that some secrets can be known and some cannot be known. Although the latter can satisfy your curiosity. But it definitely comes at a great cost.
