The long frontiers of the Empire, the kingdoms of Io, and the city-states of Kaser are inhabited by mercenary groups and bandits, both protecting passing merchants and raiding them, all depending on money.

Among them, the Blue Wolf Mercenary Group is well-known in the border towns of a section of the border between the Io Kingdom and the Empire, and they are trusted by many travelers in the past because of their reputation. The leaders of several bandit groups roaming around the neighborhood also maintained friendly relations with the green wolf, and the two sides also did a lot of joint work in private.

The only opponent of the Green Wolf Mercenary Group in this area is the Renwu Mercenary Group led by Nakamasa Yu, and Nakamasa Yu also has a good relationship, and the two sides are evenly matched in this area.

Until the Green Wolf Mercenary Group was "refueled" by the player, the soldiers were lost.

And the main focus of Renwu is a martial art without benevolence.

Zhongzheng Yu naturally did not let go of this opportunity, under the pressure of the Renwu mercenary group, the green wolf's original plan to cultivate and replenish was disrupted, and it was gradually squeezed to the edge, and many snobbish team members also switched directly to Renwu. Internal worries and external difficulties, which is also the main reason why the green wolf was forced to take the marquis's list.

It's just that I didn't expect that the road was narrow, and the strong Renwu was also targeted, and Zhongzheng Yu personally led the team into the Rose Forest in order to expand and become stronger.

Coincidentally, on the first day, I met a green wolf who had withdrawn from border trade for a while.

Nakamasa Yu slowly got up, folded his hands and bowed deeply towards the person who had already passed away. After doing this, he walked over to the player, who was still gasping for breath on the ground, and smiled, "Your Excellency, you are very skilled. ”

"Nope." Guan Yiwen shook his head slightly, looked up at Zhong Zhengyu and said, "It's your people who have good archery skills, otherwise I would have died." ”

"A person like Your Excellency Guan, even if he dies once and then comes back to life, is still strong. I'm very interested in the resurrection, I wonder if your Excellency would like to share such an experience with me? ”

Nakasho Yu looked around, the entire battlefield was being cleaned up step by step, and Renwu's mercenaries had already stripped all the items they could use from the dead people. A little farther away, a few figures could be seen flickering, it was the people who were behind Renwu's robbery, and they should have caught the "treasure" by now.

Guan Yiwen was noncommittal, he glanced at the star bracelet, his own panel:

[Player's name: Guan Yiwen.] 】

[Number of Star Crown Fragments Owned: 0.] 】

[Storyline cracked: 0%. 】

[World Level: 1.] 】

[Ability: Time Stop.] 】

——

[World Sequence: One.] 】

[Faction: Allies of the Renwu Mercenary Regiment.] 】

[World Key Patchwork: 94%.] 】

His ability is very special, and he can slow down the flow of time around him, which can already be regarded as a miracle in a low-martial world like World One.

Guan Yiwen took a deep look at the ability, and then his eyes fell on the world's key patchwork, 94%. This is an extremely high degree of patchwork, and half a month after entering the No. 1 world, he is almost complete the patchwork of the key.

However, Guan Yiwen was very indifferent to this, because he knew that his ability and world key patchwork all came from the same thing, if there was no such thing, he would probably be the same as that group of low-level players now, being coerced and preparing for the Warring States War.

Thinking of this, he didn't feel a sneer.

Guan Yiwen said coldly: "Is the curiosity of the head of the Zhongzheng regiment a little too strong? No need to tempt, I haven't died once. ”

Zhong Zhengyu's careful thinking was not distressed at all when it was exposed, he just smiled and said: "Guan Xiaoyou thinks too much, I am just surprised that Xiaoyou has so many secrets, but there is absolutely no intention to harm Xiaoyou." Our Renwu mercenary group, the word benevolence is the head, and the martial arts are behind. ”

Guan Yiwen stood up, ignoring the smiling tiger who was pretentious, eating people and not spitting out bones, he walked towards the woods on the side and relieved himself.

Nakasho Yu, laughed twice and walked away against him, he still had to deal with the little nobleman who was captured alive.

As the saying goes, no coincidence is not a book, Guan Yiwen walked this time, and just walked to the place where Lai Ning and Zhu Yaotang were hiding, he looked around, and just wanted to prepare to unbuckle it, two figures dragged two Changhong and jumped out.

Guan Yiwen shivered all over, and the cold hairs on his body stood up. He didn't think about it, and forcibly urged the time to stop.

The two long swords slowed down suddenly five inches in front of him, but the swords were still advancing, and without waiting for Guan Yiwen to think more, he suddenly stepped back, avoiding the sudden two swords.

On the other side, the two people who drew the sword also felt the slowness of handing the sword, but it only existed in the front half of the sword, and they were not affected. Ning He and Zhu Yaotang glanced at each other, and both of them showed solemn expressions. The previous player's stab against the enemy turned out to be problematic.

Ning He was already a little hesitant about this sword in his heart, so he didn't continue to attack at this time. In fact, they had no intention of showing up at all, but the guy in front of them happened to walk a few meters in front of them, as long as this guy looked at the place where they were hiding a few more times, they would be exposed. It is better to strike first than to lose the opportunity later.

What's more, through the bystanders in front of them, the player in front of them is not a good person. So the first-hand attack of the two was to go straight to the point, but unfortunately it was hindered by an inexplicable force.

Guan Yiwen took a few steps back before he slowed down, he pulled out his long knife, looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in front of him with an unkind expression, and said coldly: "Who are you!" ”

This is not a question but a shout, Guan Yiwen has not finished speaking, he has already taken a few steps back again, and retreated to the open area where the trees were a little sparse before. The people of the surrounding Renwu mercenary group naturally noticed the situation here after shouting, this time Zhongzheng Yu, like the green wolf, brought in the elite, not only because of the preciousness of the quota, but also because his own life was staked, of course, the stronger the better.

When even two archers bent their bows and arrows, aiming at the dense forest where Guan Yiwen exited, the roses in the forest were dazzling.

Nakamasa Yu also heard the movement, he frowned slightly, and walked over. Came to the nervous Guan Yiwen, a little surprised by the state of this stranger at this time, this is the first time he has seen such an expression on him, and there is actually a trace of shame in the anger?

Guan Yiwen saw Zhongzhengyu and said in a deep voice: "There are two people, strangers. ”

Nakamasa Yu nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the five or six mercenaries around him surrounded him.

These mercenaries cautiously pushed forward, and when they entered the forest, the woodland where Guan Yiwen had been waiting was empty at this time.

There are only a few bits of creeping grass and fresh footprints on the ground, proving that there were once people who stayed here.

Zhongzhengyu, who received the report, looked at Guan Yiwen, and Guan Yiwen's expression had returned to normal.

Zhongzheng Yu shook his head and said, "I've already run away, and I'm not going to send someone to chase after me." ”

Guan Yiwen pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, turned around and said, "Your people, you make decisions." ”

So saying, he went into another wood.

As a quality citizen of the Blue Star Federation, he insisted on retaining some decency even when he was trapped here. Going to the toilet is one of the things he thinks is decent.

......

Zhu Yaotang and Ning He shuttled through the Rose Forest, and they had already avoided the player and his group of local accomplices.

The Rose Forest covers an extremely large area, and the thousands of Rose Knights are so small in this Rose Forest. After Ning and them came in and broke away from the main army, they didn't see anyone else except for what happened just now.

Ning He asked, "Uncle, what are we going to do next?" ”

"Take a step and look at a step, there is no map here, so I can only wait for changes." Zhu Yaotang grinned, he always maintained a slightly rickety figure, paying attention to the movements around him from time to time.

There was no road in the Rose Forest, they kept walking among the trees and weeds, and the roses clinged to the tall trees that covered the sky, growing savagely and sickly. Their rhizomes, foliage, and extremely uncoordinated flowers cover the entire woodland, and most of the branches that spread on the ground are their roots. The deeper he went, the more numb Ning He's scalp became, and the ground was no longer dirty, replaced by a thick layer of criss-crossed and coiled rhizomes to decay the ground.

He stomped hard, and the ground was firm.

The foliage of the surrounding trees began to gradually become scarce, and one after another bright roses were entrenched in the trees like dragons, and Ning He felt a strong discomfort as he looked at the world full of flowers in front of him.

At this time, they are not like the Rose Knight who entered it to catch and fight, but like lost travelers.

Ning He slowed down and said softly, "Uncle, this... Isn't that a little too weird? He pointed to the roses around him, and before he knew it, the two of them were separated by a rich tree wall made of roses, as if they were walking in a labyrinth.

Zhu Yaotang also slowed down, frowning at the changes in the surrounding environment, he didn't notice it before. He looked up at the sky, about two meters away from them, the sky was obscured by layers of dense vegetation, and they hadn't seen sunlight since they entered.

On the branches and buds of the crown of the leaves on the top of the head, the roses are still blooming.

"Let's wait a minute......"

Zhu Yaotang's voice was slightly deep, and before he finished speaking, the natural forest wall that seemed to be built by plants on the side was suddenly broken open, and a long knife burst with cold light was inserted from it, and the flowing blood slowly flowed down the blood-drinking groove, condensed at the tip of the knife, and dripped on the ground where the vines were weaving.

This was not over, as if the first alarm sounded, and then several gaps were broken in the forest wall, and all kinds of weapons pierced through them, and the blades were mottled with blood.

Ning He took a step back, and he heard a very heavy wheezing and the whimper of a beast on the verge of death behind the forest wall.

Zhu Yaotang frowned slightly, did not retreat but moved two steps to the right, leaning sideways on an intact forest wall, behind the forest wall, there was indeed a sound.

The long knife that was stabbed out first had been pulled back by Lin Bi's side, and so were the blades that appeared one after another.

Zhu Yaotang tried to pull the exposed branches on the forest wall, which was very strong, looking inside through the intertwined forest wall, there was only a piece of pitch black, and he couldn't see the situation on the other side at all, this was a very thick forest wall.

He made a silent gesture towards Ning He, pointed the way ahead, and motioned to move forward.

Ning He nodded slightly and clenched the sword in his hand.
