Chapter 904: Lost Peak
Ryan still wrapped himself tightly with the thick cloak, although this town called "Gassel" is pitifully small, but there are a lot of mercenaries, many of them are outstanding figures, if one accidentally leaks the strength of the powerhouse in his field, then everything he has done before will be in vain, so he and the Heristt housemother are all dressed in black cloaks, disguised as an ordinary ** division of the mercenary group, as for diplomatic affairs and other mundane affairs, of course, the maids of the Heristt housemother.
In order not to shock the world, Ryan and the others abandoned all the undead creatures they used to travel a day in advance, and by the way, they used flames to purify all the corpses and destroy the traces, and now they are a group of adventurers who have come to the Lost Peak to adventure, not much different from other adventure teams. As Ryan strolled through the town, his eyes on the narrow, dirty streets, the smell of liquor in the air, and the cacophony of laughter in his ears made Ryan feel a little bit of what he felt when he and Elendor were on an adventure.
This town is not a very large village in the strict sense of the word, but it is located on the main road to and from the Lost Peak, there is an endless stream of mercenaries, and many chambers of commerce rent houses here to send representatives, which has slowly formed a prosperous town. The people who came here were either going into the mountains to hunt magical beasts or buying all kinds of goods from the mercenaries who had returned from the Lost Peak, so all the buildings that could be seen here were a mix of bars and inns, and the only difference between them was how much they charged.
The dark elf maid who led the team chose an inn that looked fairly clean and walked in, this is a three-story building, the hall on the first floor is naturally a bar for those mercenaries to entertain, when Ryan and his party entered, the mercenaries who were talking and laughing loudly around the hall quieted down, but after seeing that it was just a group of mercenaries with legendary high-level strength, the noise resumed again, and it was a little louder than before. The mercenary group that is qualified to enter the Lost Peak, no matter how weak the members are, they must be at the legendary level, otherwise they don't want to come out of it alive, the strength of those dark elf maids can only be regarded as below average here, there are too many such characters, maybe you can hit several by throwing a wine glass, you don't need to pay too much attention to it at all.
"We want six rooms. The Dark Elf maid at the head said to the boss standing behind the counter, "Stay only one night, and enter the mountain tomorrow." β
The boss was a middle-aged man from a Rakshasa demon, he looked at this group of dark elves, shook his furry head and replied: "I see that you are also from afar, why don't you rest for a few more days......?"
"We don't need it!" The dark elf maid led by him responded coldly, and then took out the gold coins to pay for the accommodation, the Rakshasa demon boss was slightly disappointed, only stayed for one night and did not replenish the equipment and supplies, the profit he could get from Ryan's side was too low, but these dark elves put on a look of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and it was inconvenient for him to say anything, so he took Ryan and them towards the upstairs room.
The Rakshasa demon boss had only walked a few steps, and a short Thor demon and a dark elf wearing the robe of the ** division walked down the stairs side by side, and the dark elf looked up and down at the dark elf maid led by him, and spoke: "Hello, my compatriots, I'm sorry I heard your conversation just now, it just so happens that we are going to enter the mountain tomorrow, why don't we go together? β
"We're not used to walking with outsiders. The dark elf maid led by him responded coldly, and then walked past the other party like this, Ryan and they were mixed in with this group of dark elf maids and also walked up the stairs, the invited dark elf ** master turned his head sideways and watched Ryan and the others walk past him, with a suspicious look in his eyes, but he did not use any means to peep at Ryan's reality, but waited for Ryan and them to pass, and his companions continued to walk towards an empty table in the hall.
"Hey, Dilullah, it's just a bunch of legendary high-class women, what's there to see. The diminutive Thor, dissatisfied with his companion's performance, sat down and spoke.
"Arbuck, a group of dark elf adventurers with such similar strength and reasonable career match, you can find me such a team to come out!" The dark elf ** master Dilullah replied angrily: "These women can't be put together improvised, their tacit understanding with each other and their body shape and pace, no matter how you look at it, it looks like they have been trained together as bodyguards since childhood, I estimate that one of the four women wearing cloaks must be their master." β
"Oh, you say these dark elves have another purpose?" Thor Demon Arbuck suddenly became interested when he heard his companion say this, and he asked: "But to come to the Lost Peak, that is, to hunt the Demonic Beasts, what else is there here besides the Demonic Beasts?"
"How do I know, but I suspect that these people should be from the same family, maybe a dark elf family came here to conduct a trial, this kind of trial usually has a strong person to suppress the formation, and the preparation is quite sufficient, they don't pursue the number of monsters hunted, they only care about the hunting process, so if we can join forces with them, we won't suffer." The dark elf Dilullah picked up the wine sent by the maid, and after taking a big sip, he continued: "But it's just a thought, this kind of family usually doesn't join forces with outsiders, haven't you heard that woman, they are not used to walking with outsiders. β
The dark elf Dilula and his companion Thor Demon Arbuck chatted a few more words, and then moved on to other aspects, they will enter the Lost Peak tomorrow, tonight is the last chance to relax, naturally they will not bother too much about an adventure party that meets by chance. At the same time that these two guys were talking about Ryan and them, in the upstairs room, Ryan and the others were also talking about these two mercenaries who invited them to enter the Lost Peak together, from the small town of Gassel to the Lost Peak, there is almost only one way to go, only after entering the endless mountain range, they will go to different areas according to their own strength and hunting targets, so if nothing else, Ryan and they will meet the dark elf Dilula and his companions tomorrow.
"With these guys in the way, we're just afraid it's inconvenient to go directly to the Valley of Oblivion, right?" Boyadinas said to her mother, the Mother of Herest, "Our disguise is an adventurous party that has completed the family trial, how can we go to such a dangerous place?
"We can go around in a circle to hide people's eyes and ears, and if those guys don't know each other, we can just stop talking. The Heristel Mistress said: "This matter is up to you, Rayandina, if I and Boyardinas make a move, it is easy to leave traces, and Ryan, if you use necromancy, I believe that no one can see our true identity from it." β
"It's nothing, it's just that there are so many mercenary groups in this Lost Peak, even if you solve such a one, you can't be lucky enough to never run into other guys who get in the way. Ryan responded, "You can't kill all the way, right? β
"I have a good idea, I should be able to enter the Forgotten Valley right under their noses!" Faras suddenly said, "We can do this, so ......"
Hearing this, the Lady of Herest's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but praise: "Okay, just do what Farass wants!"
The night passed quickly, and when Ryan and his party were ready to leave the town of Gassel the next day, they unexpectedly met the dark elf Dilulah and his five companions, this adventure team is also a war thief, law and other professions, but the number is slightly less, if the six-person team cooperates closely, it will definitely be able to break through most of the area of the Lost Peak, but if you want to fight for a long time, there is a lack of stamina, after all, there are so many people, once injured or fatigued, no one can replace them, which may be the reason why Dilullah invited Ryan and themγ
After seeing Ryan and them, the dark elf ** master Dilula still opened his mouth and sent out an invitation, but he was still rejected by the dark elf maid led by him in a cold tone, so Dilula and they gave up this idea, and entered the Lost Peak with Ryan's team one after another. After entering the lush mountains and jungles, Nadilula was also interested, and instead of continuing to follow Ryan, he chose to move in other directions, which is also the most basic principle of hunting in this dangerous environment, after all, the prey in the narrow area is limited, and multiple mercenary groups are easy to conflict with each other, and it is also necessary to beware of being attacked by other malicious guys after hard work to kill the prey.
Ryan and they walked slowly towards the depths of the Lost Peak for a long time, and after confirming that there were no other mercenary groups around, they immediately changed the direction of their travel, and accelerated in the direction where the Valley of Oblivion is located, and the other adventure teams have to send thieves as scouts here to understand the surrounding environment, and if there are too dangerous magical beasts, they must avoid them as much as possible, and Ryan They completely ignored this second bit of adventure common sense, and walked out of a straight route directly in the Lost Peak.
