CHAPTER XXXVI
The underground forces miscalculated the strength of the adventurers and the level of on-the-spot adaptability.
If you don't count the South Risifus Branch of the Wizards' Guild, the Adventurers' Guild is the force with the largest number of mages in the entire Reberion.
They were confident that after inciting the slum crowd, they would send three magicians who were infinitely close to the level of blue robes, and more than a dozen archers who occupied the position to be condescending, enough to keep this team of adventurers in the slums alive.
But this idea is somewhat unrealistic at the moment.
It is only a matter of time before the underground forces continue to consume the waves and lose.
The archers, who had managed to climb to the commanding heights, were forced to shrink their heads obediently by a few more fireballs.
And the encirclement that besieged the adventurers and the poor people, as more and more people retreated, the overall density continued to decline.
"It's now!"
Karl shouted and jumped off the roof as the spear swept through the stone and threw it diagonally, while the spear in his hand burned brightly, emitting flames and heat that forced the poor people around him to rush up.
He brandished the flaming spear in his hand, opening the way for his companions to survive.
The apprentice mages of the monster hunting team and Yanni temporarily suppressed the mages of the underground forces with a short burst of magic missiles.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the adventurers jumped down one after another following in Carl's footsteps, and the followers rushed in the direction of the adventurer's guild.
Shi Junjun, who condensed as large a fireball as possible at his fingertips to force back the surrounding crowd, rubbed shoulders with these low-level people from another world.
Shi Junjun could see the anger and anger in the eyes of these people.
But she also knew that if she stopped or released her magic to explain something to them, she would be torn to pieces by the crowd who were already full of anger and couldn't listen to anything......
She gritted her teeth and continued to move forward before a feeling of powerlessness came to her mind.
Only by moving forward, always moving forward, can we do what we have not been able to do in the past in the future......
Members of the underground forces who have come to their senses try to intercept the fleeing adventurers, but the slum crowds who are just the right time to help them get in the way, so much so that they can only watch the victims leave.
The adventurers who broke out of the encirclement were then pursued for a while, but the pursuers, mainly composed of poor people, were by no means the opponents of the former in terms of physical fitness.
The chronically malnourished paupers were gradually distanced by adventurers who were far more physically fit than ordinary people, and after chasing them for a street and a half, they could no longer see a human figure, and finally stopped out of breath.
And before the adventurers who had managed to escape to safety could catch their breath, they found that they were missing a companion.
"Where's Claire?"
As the leader of the monster hunting team, the bearded uncle Feng Te, quickly remembered the female ranger in his team, and turned his head to ask the team magician next to him:
"Did you see Claire?"
The latter shook his head, and the other adventurers also gave negative answers.
"Damn it!"
Remembering that he had sent her to keep an eye on the two slum children, he blamed himself for the bearded uncle Font and slammed his fist on the wall beside him.
This decision of his is likely to kill his companions......
After being let go by the adventurers, the slum brothers and sisters did not return home in the first place, but instead circled the narrow paths between the slum shacks.
Could it be that these two imps discovered their existence?
Realizing how ridiculous her idea was, Claire laughed self-deprecatingly, if that were the case, she would probably have been expelled from the guild as a C-class adventurer.
With her stealth and tracking abilities, the two children would not notice the existence of the tail behind them, and the only possible explanation was that the older brother was far more vigilant than their age, and wanted to use a circle to shake off the people who might exist behind them.
She hesitated for a moment when she heard the voice of her companion in the track, and she chose the latter between returning to the team immediately and continuing with the captain's orders.
The female ranger Claire knows the strength of her team members, even if she is not in the team, with Karl Yanni and that strong E-class match, it is enough to deal with all the situations that happen in the slums, so at this stage, she only needs to complete the tasks assigned to her by the captain.
Confirming her next move, she decided to continue following the two slum kids.
Although they are incredibly vigilant at this age, the limitations of their knowledge of the world make their vigilance seem so useless and ridiculous in the eyes of those who care.
But what are these two children guarding against......
The slum roads are far more complex than Carlyle, the ranger could have imagined, and the poor people struggling to survive in the mud have even carved out their own space in the sewers of Reberion with partitions and newly excavated colleagues.
She never expected that the two children would go this way, and she was forced to follow in desperation, if she gave up, the ghost knows which corner of Reberion the two children would hide in through the intricate sewer pipes, and then the only clue they could find the Slime Killer would have to be cut off......
Fortunately, there are also many adventurers beforehand, who participated in the commission to chase down the slime killer in the sewer pipe, so as to improve her ability to sneak and track in a special environment, Claire, a female ranger who can still keep the two slum children in her sight in this unfamiliar dark environment.
The terrible environment inside the sewer pipe forced the two children to slow down their steps, which was also a good thing for her, and the long sneak tracking consumed far more energy than normal walking, and it was an opportunity to stretch a little distance to recover her strength in preparation for what might happen next......
Claire, a female ranger who had slowed down slightly in the dark, suddenly stiffened, and slowly reached for the dagger tied to her thigh.
As an experienced C-class adventurer and a sensible ranger, she had just sensed an unusual air flow on the back of her neck, not like the foul-smelling gas generated by the garbage in the sewer pipes, but like human breathing......
When did there be such a person behind him? What is the purpose of this man, who is more likely to be friend or foe......
The next moment the ranger Claire lost consciousness, and the next day her body was found at the entrance of the Reberion Adventurer's Guild.
On the same day, Norman Augusta, the leader of the Reberion Adventurers' Guild, declared war against the Reberion underground.
