Chapter 16: Finally Meets an Outsider

The dim sky was dyed a dark red like lava, and the smell of gunsmoke and sulfur pervasively permeated the air.

On a hillside that is neither high nor low, Xiang En and Andrea are hiding side by side behind a bush, secretly observing a team below the hillside.

Twelve days had passed since they left the city of Deair, and after seeing two piles of burned corpses in succession, the two stopped in the forest next to the road and lived for five days.

Just as they were about to continue their departure, a dark red cloud suddenly appeared in the sky in front of them, followed by a tremor of the earth.

The strange noise attracted the two, and after the tremors subsided, it took them two days to get here, and saw a chaotic procession pertaining on a small road.

The path down the hillside was dotted with more than thirty people, dressed like a mix of adventurers and civilians, men and women, old and young.

The oldest could see gray hair, and the youngest was still crying in swaddling clothes.

At this moment they gathered together, arguing with each other excitedly, and there did not seem to be a leader.

Observing from a distance of nearly fifty meters, Xiang En could see the confusion and panic on the faces of those people, but there were also people wearing helmets and swords among those people, and there were many people on the opposite side, so they should not be rashly contacted.

"They don't look like bad people, do they want to go over and get in touch?"

After observing for a while, Andrea was convinced that those people might just be ordinary people, and was confident that with their cooperation, they would be able to run away even if they weren't good people.

Observed from a distance of more than fifty meters, the few hunter professionals with short knives and bows and arrows did not find it, and their strength should be average.

After living in the forest for five days, Andrea and Xiang En went to find the monster very seriously in order to eat a bite of meat, and they also met a bronze high-level wolf king who was driven out of the wolf pack.

After a thrilling battle, Andrea eventually traded her life for her life and successfully killed the Wolf King.

Andrea, who was already at the bronze-level level, successfully promoted to the bronze level after absorbing the magic crystals on the body of the demonic beast, and her physique and magic power reserves have been significantly improved.

After Xiang En healed Andrea's injuries, the skill level of the Restoration Technique and the Awakening Technique also increased, not much, but enough for them to have the ability to protect themselves in less dangerous situations.

And both of them can rely on skills to recover their physical strength, if it is not very close, or the speed is crushing, they can rely on their physical strength to consume the opposite side.

"Let's go out and get in touch with them."

After observing the team at the bottom of the hill for so long, Xiang En also saw that these people should not be the group that slaughtered the city, and they were arguing as if they were about to fight......

They have been out of the crowd for too long, and they urgently need to supplement the information from the outside world, otherwise the feeling of being abandoned by the world will become worse and worse.

Man is a social animal after all.

After reaching a consensus, the two of them stood up from behind the bushes, and did not deliberately hide their movements, and the sound of their bodies rubbing against the bushes immediately aroused the alarm of several hunter professionals.

"Who!"

A male hunter with dark green hair quickly pulled an arrow from his quiver and strapped it on his hunting bow and aimed it in Xiang En's direction.

The hunter's shout made the chaotic team silent, and the people with weapons drew their swords and looked at Xiang En and the others, quite a sense of immediacy like a frightened bird.

Xiang En and Andrea raised their hands and slowly walked out of the grass, indicating that they were not hostile.

Most of the people had already put away their weapons when they saw them raise their hands, and only a few were still holding their swords, but they were also lowering their tips.

"Who are you? What do you want to do? ”

As Xiang Eun and Andrea walked down the hill, a brown-haired warrior pro who was still holding a knife spoke.

Everyone else was just dedicating a small amount of energy to attention, and the sudden appearance of two people who were not hostile was not what they should be most concerned about.

"Xiang En, adventurer. This is my companion, can I ask you where you are going? ”

Xiang En looked at the professional who was speaking, gave a brief explanation, and looked between the group of people.

As he got closer, the relationship between these people became clearer to him.

There were ordinary people in the team, and those ordinary people stayed in one corner of the team, and the people dressed as adventurers stood on the other side, and there were some people in the middle who were communicating, and those people who had just quarreled were also those people.

Xiang En was talking to an adventurer, and after hearing Xiang En's introduction, he put away his knife, frowned and asked, "Where did you come from?" Don't you know about Greystone City? ”

After the man asked this, Xiang En and Andrea could clearly feel that the attention on their bodies had increased, and even those who were arguing temporarily stopped discussing and looked at the two.

Xiang En also frowned, Gray Stone City is a big city on the edge of De'er Province, and it is the largest gathering place for adventurers in the province except for De'er City, so ask...... Could it be that something happened to Greystone City too?

"We escaped from De Air, and what happened to Greystone?"

As soon as he heard him say that he had escaped from De'er City, the faint sound of communication between the teams disappeared in an instant, and everyone looked at Xiang En.

"Boy! You just said you escaped from De Air, right? What's going on there? ”

Among the few people who quarreled in the middle, a strong man in heavy armor walked out, with a slightly hideous look on his face, and he spoke very politely, focusing on the word "escape".

After squeezing through the crowd, the strong man stood in front of Xiang En, with a posture of wanting to hit someone at any time, and it could be seen that his mood was not calm.

Andrea stepped forward and stood in front of Xiang Eun, clenching her fists, and if these people were going to make a move, she would run away with Xiang Eun.

Seeing her posture, the strong man stopped his steps and did not step forward again, but his eyes were still staring at Xiang En.

More people also came around, they thought that Xiang En and Andrea also escaped from Greystone City, but they didn't expect it to be not!

"Something happened to De El City, too?"

"Tell me what's going on!"

After digesting Xiang En's news, the gossip shouts shook his eardrums, and he had to raise his hand to stop them from continuing to speak.

"Stop, can you tell us what happened in Greystone City?"

Then there was a lot of gossip and explanations, and finally the brown-haired man raised his hand to let the surrounding people be quiet first, and then explained to Xiang En alone.

"An army came to Greystone City the day before yesterday, and after that the city was sealed, and the people inside couldn't get out, and the people outside couldn't get in. Then a magic array appeared in the sky above the city, and an archmage used a seventh-order spell to destroy all the nearby towns, and all of us escaped by luck, although we disagreed, we should still go to De'er City. ”

When he finished explaining, Xiang En and Andrea's expressions were very bad, how familiar this was, and things were complicated again!

Why!
