Volume 1 The Age of Chaos Chapter 41 Tracing the Origin

When Hong Xuanwu sent someone to issue a heavy reward, Qi Wanli quietly found an excuse, pulled Bai Qiyu to a corner where no one was, and after explaining the situation roughly, he said: "You will see that the battle situation is almost over in a while, so call the Black King out, and you go first." ”

"What about you?" Bai Qiyu asked blankly.

Qi Wanli shrugged his shoulders and said, "I owe them this matter, no matter what, I have to think of a way, let's do my best first." You find a safe place to stay first, and the Black King will find me when he returns. ”

Bai Qiyu seemed a little unhappy and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

"I can't let you transform into a white dragon and go straight to the enemy's lair, right?" Qi Wanli snorted and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we haven't done anything big yet, and I won't explain myself here." ”

In desperation, Bai Qiyu had to agree. As a life dependent, she didn't have enough effective combat power before the fourth order, and it was basically support, and it was reasonable for Qi Wanli to let her protect herself first.

She sighed and said, "You follow Hong Xuanwu and them, you can't take the Black King with you, but you have to be more careful." ”

A black rain has woken up the mercenaries in Breeze City.

The movement of the monster siege was too big, and it also attracted them, but these mercenaries knew the style of the Martial God Temple, and they didn't dare to rush into the monster group to slash and kill with their heads down, for fear of disrupting the formation of the soldiers, and it would not be fun for Hong Xuanwu to get angry.

So these mercenaries waited under the city wall, hoping that the Martial God Temple would be willing to spend some money to ask them to help...... Well, it's okay if you don't spend money, as long as you promise to give yourself the materials you get.

Unexpectedly, they didn't wait for the task of the soldiers of the Martial God Temple, but waited for the heavy reward that Hong Xuanwu personally threw out.

"Exploring the monster's lair, the danger difficulty is unknown, as long as the mercenary above the fourth order, or the level above gold, it takes ten people, and after the task is completed, it will be rewarded with 100 gold!"

A soldier stood beside Hong Xuanwu and shouted out his demand.

The mercenaries were in an uproar, firstly, they didn't expect the Martial God Temple to throw out such a heavy reward, and secondly, how difficult would it be to be under such a heavy reward?

His Hong Xuanwu didn't know the bottom in his heart, he only knew that Qi Wanli had reminded him that what was going on was very likely to be a vicious battle that he had never seen before.

And Qi Wanli will remind him like this because in his head, there has always been a voice constantly reminding him that somewhere in the southwest, there is a strange breath of life, which is so powerful that it is incomparable for a while, and weak enough to almost disappear for a while.

"The object's location is difficult to determine, and analysis has shown that its state is extremely unstable, but slowly recovering over time. ”

What level is so powerful that it is incomparable?Anyway, when he first met Bai Qiyu's seventh-order true body, Dark Yuan didn't remind him like this.

"That'...... Can I deal with it by apotheosis?" Qi Wanli thought of a quick solution.

"No, you can't. Deified near here, the probability of encountering a catastrophe is 99.97%" Dark Yuan ruthlessly extinguished his idea of opening a cheat.

"It's hard to tell me that this is happening, but you don't tell me why it's happening......" Qi Wanli sighed, and decided to give it a try.

About half an hour later, the city gate opened, and a wild wave of sword light came out of the door, directly splitting the dozen or so monsters crowded together at the city gate, Hong Xuanwu rode a horse and held a big knife in his hand, charging forward.

A little later on his side was Qi Wanli, who put on the newly purchased high-grade leather armor, wearing the fist armor made by Fang Xiaofang in both hands, and riding a horse to follow Hong Xuanwu.

Behind them, there was a five-cavalry squad, and it was the five mercenaries who finally took over the task, all of them exuded a powerful aura, and the worst was also a fourth-order master, and the aura of one of them had even reached the peak of the fourth-order, which was not weaker than the great grandmaster that Qi Wanli killed in Tombless Town.

Among the group, it is the master brain of Qi Wanli's realm that is the lowest.

The siege of the monster group outside the city walls was like no man's land for them, and in just a moment, the group easily fought their way out of the siege and headed towards the monster lair in the southwest.

At this time, the black rain in the sky has gradually decreased, but there have also been third-order or even fourth-order existences among the monsters besieging the city, fortunately, there are countless mercenary masters in the city, and they will not be attacked into the city by these monsters.

Seven men and seven horses, like seven shadows flying close to the ground, galloped in the night rain.

"Master Wanli, can you say it now, what are we going to do here?"

Qi Wanli raised his voice so that his voice could be heard by several other people in the wind and rain, and said: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't dare to guarantee what will happen." All I can say is that if we are dealing with an existence that can call the wind and rain, then we can't be too careful. ”

As they got closer and closer to their destination, several masters clearly felt that the atmosphere was not right.

Hong Xuanwu was the first to speak, and said in a deep voice: "Something is wrong, we haven't encountered any monsters in ten minutes, and if I hear correctly, there is not a single monster within a radius of ten miles." ”

Qi Wanli nodded and said, "This is because that monster's lair is at our feet, and I'm afraid that some strange changes are happening." ”

All the masters were stunned, and Hong Xuanwu frowned and asked, "How do you know?" ”

Plug-in, it's because I opened the plug-in.

Of course, Qi Wanli can't tell everyone that with the third-order realm of two paths now, the dark element has begun to have the ability to scan the terrain and even the underground.

"The sound of horses' hooves landing, the morphology of the soil, the distribution of plants, the direction of the mountains...... If you explain them one by one, I'm afraid it will have to be until the early hours of the morning. Qi Wan said expressionlessly: "Please believe in the professional ability of a top appraiser." ”

Can this also be identified?

All the masters looked at each other, but the name of Master Wanli was known and unknown to everyone in Breeze City for only two days, and he had his own special place, not to mention that now he was the designated leader of Hong Xuanwu, and they had to believe it if they didn't believe it.

"And what should we do now?" asked one of the mercenaries.

"Wait a minute. ”

Qi Wanli turned over and dismounted, and fell to the ground without hesitation, his ears firmly attached to the ground.

"Dark Yuan, what's the situation now?" he asked quietly.

"The object is located about three hundred meters below, no more than ten meters away, and there are no other forms of life around it. ”

Qi Wanli narrowed his eyes, and probably had a guess in his heart.

In other words, maybe it was because the team sent by Hong Xuanwu accidentally made a mess and a strange monster appeared in the laboratory, because of the existence of this monster, the other monsters either ran out or were killed?

"Let's keep walking, we can't dig a hole from here, we still have to go to the cave that Lord Hong said. Qi Wanli stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and said, "I still need to remind everyone that what we will face next may not be a large group of monsters, but a single extremely powerful monster. ”

On the rest of the way, they didn't encounter any monsters again, and they also walked into the cave that the Martial God Temple team had walked into not long ago, and found the dark river.

On the rock walls on both sides of the dark river, there was no trace of any monster, which was completely different from the monster lair that Hong Xuanwu had described and where he had been.

They stepped into the gently flowing dark river and began to walk downstream.

The deeper he went into this cave, the stronger the warning in Qi Wanli's heart became, but he had no choice but to continue to go deeper.

This is like the days when he used to be a policeman, he was busy for two weeks and finally solved a big case, he came home after vacation, opened the beer and called for a barbecue, the live broadcast of the ball game had been played on TV, and the brothers who watched the football together were already on their way, but they received a call from their boss that there was a murder case of a very bad nature in the city next door, and the brothers over there couldn't handle it, and the leader of the leader named him to transfer him to handle the case.

And the boss said slowly on the phone that the car that picked him up to hand over the work had stopped downstairs at his house, and he would be given five more minutes to pack up his things at most.

From an emotional point of view, I don't want to go, I don't want to go. However, you must go, not only because of responsibility or orders, but also because you have a hot heart.

"In case I encounter a desperate situation, I believe that Dark Yuan will definitely be able to help me solve it, huh. He comforted himself in his heart, but remembering that Dark Yuan hadn't given any positive answers tonight, he couldn't help but feel a little uncertain.

The group went deeper and deeper, and began to see some corpses on both sides of the dark river, Qi Wanli made a simple identification, thinking that these bones belonged to higher-level monsters, and had been dead for some years, and it was likely that the high-level monsters who lived here killed each other in their daily lives.

"It's not surprising, high-level monsters already have a sense of territory, and they are crowded in such a small place, and sooner or later they will have to fight to the death. Hong Xuanwu commented expressionlessly.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, an iron door appeared in front of them.

Strangely, a red glow could be seen from inside the iron door, like a malfunctioning lamp. And with this red light flickering, strange sounds came from inside the door from time to time, like the cry of a human being, and like the roar of a monster, it was impossible to tell the difference.

"At least so far, we haven't seen any of the Martial God Temple team, dead or alive. Qi Wanli said: "Monsters eat people and spit out bones, so there is a high probability that they walked into this door." ”

"Cheer up, let's go, and see what kind of Longtan Tiger's Den is. Hong Xuanwu sneered, clenched the big knife in his hand, took the lead in the front, and strode into the iron gate.

However, in the next second, he flew out backwards at a faster speed, as if he had suffered an extremely terrifying blow, and the divine power condensed around the whole person was scattered, and he slammed into the rock wall, directly knocking out a half-meter-deep crater.

"Wow!" Hong Xuanwu covered his chest and spurted out a mouthful of blood, but he stood firm with his knife, and in a few breaths, his breath stabilized again.

But a few mercenaries, plus Qi Wanli, were all shocked.

What was it in it that could repel and injure the fifth-order Venerable Hong Xuanwu, who had been on guard, in one second?
