Chapter 143: The Old Man's Experience
After a long time, the old man's mood gradually stabilized, and his originally straight waist was slightly rickety at this time, and the whole person looked as if he had suddenly aged ten years.
"I can tell you about my experience, but I want you to help me regain my strength, even if I will be your slave forever. ”
Yang Fan smiled faintly, stretched out his right hand as he did when he entered the house first, and said, "Let's sit down and talk! I bought you only to be curious about your experience, and I didn't think about slavery at all." But as the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch, and you don't seem to be an ordinary magician, so..."
The words have already been said and done, if the old magician still can't understand the meaning, then he has lived for such a long time in vain, so before Yang Fan could finish speaking, he interrupted: "Yes, I can be your escort or subordinate, this is much better than I originally expected." ”
At this point, the two sides are also their own people, so everyone seems to be a lot more casual in the subsequent chat.
"Hmm, then let's introduce ourselves first! My name is Yang Fan, the lord of the Great Wasteland. The beautiful lady next to me was Catherine, and the one over there was my bodyguard named Mulley. Yang Fan pointed to a few people and introduced them one by one.
The old mage nodded to the other two one by one and said, "My name is Howard, and I used to be a high-level archmage of the wind system. ”
Yang Fan was shocked, he didn't expect that he could pick up a great mage by casually shopping around the slave market, and he was also a high-level archmage. But this made him even more curious, the archmage was already considered the top combat power in the entire Duchy of Perus, what happened to Howard to end up like this?
Knowing the doubts in the hearts of several people, Howard stopped selling the guanzi and slowly told his experience.
It turned out that Howard was not from the Duchy of Perus at all, but from another Duchy adjacent to Pelus. And as early as more than thirty years ago, he was already a high-level Grand Magister, and he was also a well-known figure in their country, and even served as the dean of their country's Demon Martial Arts Academy for a time.
However, fame and status are only floating clouds for Howard, and all he seeks is great strength. Therefore, after serving as the dean of the Demon Martial Arts Academy for thirty years, his strength has always stagnated, and he resolutely resigned from his position and devoted himself to the study of magic.
The strength of the Great Magister is one step further is the Law God, the number of Law Gods in the entire continent is not more than thirty except for the Light Holy See, of course, this is only the number known to the world, and some god-level figures who have returned or been hidden are not counted.
Even so, it can still be seen how difficult it will be to cultivate to the god level.
The same is true of Howard, after resigning from his position, he has gone through a long period of cultivation, but his strength has still not improved in the slightest. That's why he left his country and began to travel in search of opportunities for breakthroughs. This was originally a good thing, but if you are lucky, you may really be able to become a god.
However, just two years ago, a mysterious organization called "Hunter God" approached him and wanted to invite him to join. Originally, Howard was a little disdainful and wanted to refuse, but after discussing with the other party, he agreed without hesitation. Because the other party only used one move, and defeated him.
Defeating a great demon master with one move, even with god-level strength, is difficult to do, which makes Yang Fan and the others very shocked in their hearts. But they didn't doubt Howard's real name, because it didn't do him any good to lie.
Another important reason for joining the "God Hunting" was that they promised that they could let him have god-level strength within five years, which was undoubtedly very tempting for Howard at that time, so he immediately agreed to join the organization.
Originally, I thought that joining an organization would naturally be subject to the control of many parties, but the other party only left a token to identify itself and a sentence and left, that is, "Everything is business as usual, waiting for the organization's orders." ”
Although they wanted to know more about the organization, they ignored him at all, and in their words, "When you should know, you will know." So until now, he didn't know much about that mysterious organization.
After the "God Hunter" left, Howard resumed his life of travel, and a year later, he had even forgotten about it. He didn't come here until five months ago, when a messenger from the god of hunting approached him and informed him to assemble in the city of Hernis in the Duchy of Perus.
After gathering the people in the organization, he realized that this time the gathering was a task that they did not need to perform.
At the same time, he can be regarded as having a preliminary glimpse of the strength of the "Hunting God". There are more than ten people in total, each of them is a master, the two leaders are insiders in the organization, and their strength is unfathomable, and the rest of the people also have the strength of the intermediate Sword Saint level at the very least.
A rare saint-level master in Pingshu, he is like a cabbage here, and he is even led by two strangers, if this is known by people from the outside world, I am afraid that it will set off a wave in an instant. But for Howard and the others, it's not a big deal, who makes people so strong!
After resting in Hernis City for two days, the two leading people took them into the Yate Mountains, and along the way, they didn't tell Howard and the others the goal of this mission, but continued to move towards the highest peak of the Yate Mountains, that is, the top of the snow-capped mountain adjacent to Yang Fan's territory.
After a period of trekking, there were many difficulties and obstacles on the way, the most important of which was the threat from Warcraft. From the low-level demonic beasts encountered at the foot of the mountain at the beginning, to the middle-level demonic beasts on the mountainside, and then to the high-level, saint-level demonic beasts later, the group walked slower and more difficult. Even in the end, almost every few hundred meters they walked up, they would encounter a Saint-level strength demonic beast.
And the original team of more than a dozen people has gradually shrunk to seven or eight people. However, the two leaders didn't know why, they had never moved their hands along the way, even if they saw that some members were torn apart by the demonic beasts, they were indifferent.
It wasn't until the end, when the group couldn't continue to go up, that the two leaders occasionally helped them. However, as they approached the top of the mountain step by step, the strength of the demonic beast gradually exceeded the scope of what Howard and the others could deal with. The main force of the battle also slowly shifted to the two leaders, and the rest of the people could only contain them at most.
Like Howard, the two leaders were initially more relaxed, but later they began to struggle and eventually ended their trip to the snowy mountains after a nightmarish battle.
