Chapter 47: The Golden Chain Mercenary Group
The "water-making technique" of the whale swallowing thousands of miles completely blocked the movement of the Skula sea monster, and its strength was difficult to exert trapped in the solid ice, and it could only stare at the group of people who were taken to the glacier by Chen Zhou with its angry bull's eyes.
At first glance, this may seem like a move that is on par with the highest level of magic, but it is a convenient use of the overflowing raw materials of the inner realm.
As this happened, Chen Zhou's staff had completely depleted his magic power and turned into a mediocre enchanted battle axe, and at the same time, he had not been able to inflict the slightest tangible damage on the sea monster.
Otherworldly creatures don't need to breathe, and sea monsters that inhabit cold waters are not afraid of bitter cold.
It has a lot of time to get out of the glacier after the ice has cleared and the snow has melted.
So Donal thought of a way to kill him and save him from trouble.
"There's no need, anyway, it won't be able to get out until we leave the water elemental plane, so it's locked inside."
Chen Zhou's tone was relaxed, anyway, he didn't plan to waste the magic of the simulacrum itself, and after a wave of hard water, he would have to fish for more than half a month to recover.
Donal has the intention to eliminate the harm, but he also has to refer to the other party's opinion, otherwise he will have to grind his giant sword by digging ice inch by inch.
The Holy Warrior of Wealth does not have to punish evil and promote good, but mainly pays attention to profitability.
Ignoring the sea monster that had been sealed in ice, Chen Zhou and the other three looked at Dios Yu Kobert, who walked with respect and fear on his face.
This is a spellcaster who is suspected of high-level strength, and no one dares to ignore them.
"Donal, I didn't expect your company to have such a powerful spellcaster.
"This time, everyone has been saved by you, and if there is anything you want the Golden Chain Mercenary Group to do in the future, just ask!"
Compared to Colbert, who was even more jealous of his peers in his eyes, although Dios was talking to the Dragonborn who was also extraordinary, he always looked at Chen Zhou with a grateful face.
In fact, there were also people in their mercenary group who were accidentally killed by the waves, but that was no wonder Chen Zhou, otherwise the casualties this time would probably be unacceptably heavy.
Although they had already run away in a group flight at that time, there should be no accident, but Dios could only convince himself that way......
"Actually, it was just a spell called "Jinbo" in the staff in my hand." Chen Zhou shook the battle axe that had exhausted his mana, "It is the plane characteristics of the water elemental plane that strengthens the spell to an abnormal point. ”
I see, with the help of magic items.
Apprentice Colbert glanced vaguely at the tomahawk, which exuded a chill, but it was a bit shocking to call it a staff.
Isn't this an enchanted weapon with a touch function?
"Yes, Cen is actually a prophet, and the power of the spell just now comes from that battle axe-type ice staff, if you have needs, you can ask us to customize it."
Why did the advertisement still hit him, hearing this, Chen Zhou looked at Donal speechlessly.
The latter was obviously a little weak-hearted: "It's just, it's the application of Aquiz Xuan's technique." ”
A little, but not much.
No wonder they hoarded so many scrolls in the first place, it turned out that there was a tiger mage who specialized in the prophecy school and had a very confusing appearance.
The previous case made Dios force himself to believe in Chen Zhou's prophetic identity.
"Anyway, thanks to you this time, the Golden Chain Mercenary Group has also prepared extra feather talismans, if the three of you don't have a boat, why don't you let us help take you on a ride?"
Donal gladly accepted, having the experience of the last iceboat dying on the spot, he didn't dare to take the boat that Chen Zhou had rubbed out of his hands.
As for the other adventurers, they were not taken seriously by the gold chain.
Seeing that the three thighs were on Dios's boat, Colbert thought for a moment, his eyes full of complicated expressions.
He and his teacher were both members of the Vientiane Society, and the extra purpose of coming here this time was to kill each other.
But now, the person who will be killed is himself!
Suddenly, Colbert noticed that Chen Zhou turned around and smiled strangely at him, and instantly realized that the other party, as a prophet, must have already figured out their plans.
Even he and the teacher who remained on the material side may be killed by the other party in turn!
Thinking of this, he resolutely did not dare to share a boat with the other party again, and politely rejected Dios's kindness and retreated to the rest of the scattered adventurer team.
"What's wrong?" Toga was a little puzzled by Chen Zhou's deliberate turn back.
"Should it be considered a gesture of goodwill?" Chen Zhou thought for a moment and explained, "I'm still quite envious of those mages who have teachers to teach and can learn knowledge step by step. ”
Once a warlock can't find a mentor, it's really troublesome to figure it out on his own......
……
Chen Zhou and the others, who didn't know what the Archmage apprentice was thinking, soon arrived near the Sea of Pearls.
As ships get closer to the plane of the air element, the state of the water element, the ocean, becomes more and more unstable.
The large ship formed by the feather talisman began to shake incessantly, sometimes suddenly sinking underwater, and sometimes being lifted back to the surface by the buoyancy of the water.
The closer you get to the Sea of Pearls, the less water you have below, and the more bubbles and steam you have.
The latter two do not provide enough buoyancy for the ship to move safely and steadily.
"We might have to abandon ship."
The mercenary leader Dios found three unfathomable guests: "Do you have any suggestions?" ”
Donal shook his head, staying with Chen Zhou, the sooner he abandoned the ship, the safer it would be.
Toga also agreed: "Abandon ship, as soon as possible." ”
From the attitude of the dragonborn gentleman, he seemed to have comprehended some secret that was inconvenient to tell.
"There are no suggestions, but there are one or two questions."
Chen Zhou ignored the suggestions of his two teammates and asked curiously, "I heard that the Golden Chain is the strongest and most reliable mercenary group in the entire assembly coast, and can complete any task it takes?" ”
Not understanding why the Prophet was stating the well-known facts at this time, Dios smiled heartily, "Of course, is there any task you want to give us?" ”
Chen Zhou did not go into this topic, but raised his doubts.
"But at the same time, I also heard that you are the most expensive mercenaries, and you always collect fees before the mission, Marquis Olasia obviously did not hire you, why did the Golden Chain Mercenary Group participate in this mission?"
As soon as these words came out, Dios's smile froze for a moment.
I can't help but feel the sharpness of the secret prophet in my heart, and I suspect that the other party has already obtained the answer through spells before exiting.
If so, his answer to this question may determine the Prophet's attitude towards the mercenary group in the future.
"I'm really sorry, I can't reveal my employer's secrets to anyone else, this is the most basic professionalism of a mercenary."
Chen Zhou smiled and didn't speak again, based on the information he investigated and combined with the words of the mercenary leader, he had already guessed who was behind the hiring of the other party this time.
