Chapter 151: Mercenary Mission
At this time, Lance and Polg fought with their backs to each other, neither of them moving, just standing quietly, as if time had stood still.
In the gladiatorial arena, the falling needles could be heard at this time, and it was a little terrifyingly quiet.
No one knew what had just happened, but vaguely, everyone had only one thought, and that was that the battle was over.
"What just happened?"
It is the "dumb" who speaks.
Even if he was born as an assassin, he didn't see what happened clearly at all, you know, the attack of the "dumb" is also known for its speed, but the thunderous blow that Lance suddenly launched just now, in addition to feeling Lance's cold killing intent, he was extremely shocked.
No one answered the "dumb" words, because no one could see what had just happened.
After a few breaths of silence, the "dumb" muttered to himself, "If I were to be asked to deal with the blow that Lance just now, I would definitely not have any possibility of dodging." ”
"I ...... I'm not sure ......."
Di Lansel stammered a little, and he looked at Lance in the arena in great surprise.
As an archer, Di Lancer's eyesight was also the best in the team, but he didn't see how Lance did it at all.
Just when everyone was surprised, the long sword that Lance had originally held high suddenly disappeared into his hand, and then everyone only heard Lance snap his fingers in a chic manner.
Polg, who had been standing and maintaining the movement just now, spewed out a stream of blood like a spring, and then he could only see that Bolger's head and body were separated from his body and fell to the ground with a grunt.
A moment later, Polger, who had lost his head, fell to the ground with a bang.
It wasn't until Lance walked towards Bolger's body that there was a burst of applause from the stands.
It is not difficult to see that Lance is in addition to a bully.
When Lance walked up to Bolger, he bent down to pick up the bloodied head that had fallen to the ground and held it high in front of the spectators in the stands.
"This is the fate of sin, and anyone who tries to do it against me has only one end, and that is ...... Die!"
At the last word of death, Lance poured the power of Godhead into it, and immediately shocked everyone in the field.
At this moment, Lance was like a demon god from hell, so terrifying that people didn't dare to look at it directly.

In the vanguard of the Southern Kingdom on the Western Front.
Ike Lehrer, the vanguard general of the Western Front, was sitting in his exclusive tent, listening to the news that the soldiers were reporting.
"General, a few days ago, there was a serious collapse in the abyss underground, and it was initially judged that it was caused by an eruption of lava underground. ”
"Hmm. Any news from Grom?"
"General Hui, not yet, the recent battle has been only the four blood wolf riders under Grom's seat, according to the captured captives, Grom has withdrawn from the western front to the hinterland of the western tribal forces. ”
"Continue to investigate Grom's whereabouts and let me know as soon as he finds out. ”
"Yes, General, there is another thing, also a few days ago, there was an undead leader of extraordinary strength in the undead clan, and the undead team led by him has caused huge casualties to the goblin clan and the dwarf clan, are we ......?"
"Undead, wait until I kill Grom, and if there's no other news, you can go down first. ”
"Yes, General. ”
After the soldier left, Ike stood up and looked in the direction of the abyss underground, muttering to himself: "Brother, I will definitely avenge you, even if you slaughter the entire western tribe, it will not be able to eliminate the hatred in my heart. ”
At this time, Ike is no longer the young and vigorous Ike I was at the beginning.
Ever since Lance jumped into the abyss, Ike has become a different person, cold, insane, and dismissive of life.
On the Western Front, everything he has gained through fighting has only one purpose, which is to avenge his best brother, and everything else is no longer important to him.
This is Ike, who has been changed by hatred.
After a moment of silence, Ike shouted outside the tent, "Adjutant. ”
"General, what are your orders!"
A burly soldier walked in, saluted Ike respectfully, and asked.
"Gather your troops, launch a surprise attack on the vanguard legion of the wolf cavalry of the four blood wolves tonight, the goal, not a single one alive. ”
"Yes, General. ”
——————————
Lance was already thoroughly famous after he killed Bolger, a master of the early stage of the High Realm, with an absolute overwhelming victory in a death duel.
For a few days, various large mercenary groups sent people to woo Lance, but they were all rejected by Quilles.
Of course, that's what Reims meant.
He has his own business to do, being a mercenary, but he does it temporarily for the sake of livelihood and strength.
In the past few days, Luca has not been able to find a suitable task.
Lance, who was very bored, except for taking Lilith around, eating and drinking, was in the room of the tavern, doing things without shame.
Quiles, Di Lansel and Luca are a few of them, and they are out and about every day with some things they don't know, but only "dumb", who will come to Lance from time to time to discuss some combat skills.
said it was talking, but it was actually asking for advice, after all, Lance's final blow to kill Polg had been deeply imprinted in the heart of the "dumb".
In the words of "Dumb", if he can learn this trick, then his success rate will definitely increase greatly when assassinating his target.
Although Lance didn't hide this, and also told the "dumb" about the skills of the triple sword hit, but the "dumb" who didn't have the battle spirit and the power of the godhead only learned the form, just like when Lance was at the peak of the primary realm, there was no lethality on the empty shelf.
Even so, the "dumb" with a high talent for assassination also used it in his assassination skills, which greatly improved his combat effectiveness, especially when using his body explosive power to perform "burst", which can make the "dumb" quickly approach the enemy and launch an assassination attack.
However, there was one thing that surprised Lance very much, and that was Lilith's talent.
She was only able to perform a three-in-a-row sword strike that looked like Lance without Lance's guidance after watching Lance perform a complete triple sword strike.
Although the power she exerted was much, much smaller than that of Lance, with Lilith's current strength in the middle of the Initial Realm, she could easily kill her under the same Realm level, even if she faced a high-level Martial Cultivator of the Junior Realm, she could still have a surprising effect.
What shocked Lance the most was that Lilith already had an ability similar to battle qi in the Beginner Realm, as if she was an alternative who had broken the shackles of the regular realm.
Although Lance couldn't see what this kind of battle-like ability was, it probably had a lot to do with that woman in the abyss.
However, since Lilith is Lance's woman, the stronger her strength, the greater the benefit to Lance.
At least to some extent of the battle, he didn't have to worry that Lilith would not be able to protect herself.
It's been three days since Lance slashed Bolger.
As usual, Lance was about to take Lilith out for a walk when Lukka walked back from outside the tavern.
"Lance, is this going out again?"
Seeing that Lance and Lilith were going out, Luca asked casually.
In the past few days, they have become very familiar with each other, so they all call them by name, so that they sound more intimate.
"It's nothing, just go out and walk around, huh?
"Yes, don't turn around, I just took a task, the reward is not bad, and when everyone arrives, discuss the plan of action. ”
With that, Lukka found an empty table in the corner and sat down.
After a while, Quiles, Dilansel, and "Dumb" who practiced a simplified version of the triple sword fight in the arena all returned to the tavern.
When everyone arrived, Lukka casually asked the tavern owner for some ale, and then said to everyone: "Just now I took a fourth-level mercenary mission issued by the church, the mission goal is to find the blood-colored vicious dog lurking in the Goles Mountains and snipe it. The quest rewards fifty gold coins and twenty high-level energy crystals, and if you only find clues to the whereabouts of the Scarlet Dog, you can also get twenty gold coins and five high-level energy crystals, and there is no limit to the time of the mission. ”
When Luca said "Scarlet Dog", Lance couldn't listen to Luca's words anymore.
The Scarlet Dog, the undead creature that was summoned by Eliface Levy in the Forest of Erin and almost killed Lance, appeared in the Gores Mountains near the Southern Kingdom by Western forces.
If Elipas Levy is also in the Golls Mountains, then through him, you will surely get some information and clues about the Necromancer King Idar Adonis.
"Hey...... Lance, what's wrong with you? Are you listening to me?"
At this time, Luca, who was talking about the mission, had already spotted Lance, who was a little distracted.
He nudged Lance's shoulder, looking at Lance with a puzzled look.
"Nothing, you continue. ”
Lance smiled apologetically at Quiles and the others on the side, and then continued to listen to Luca's story.
"This mission was just released by the church not long ago, and because the Gorles Mountains straddle the territory of the Western Tribal Forces and the territory of the Southern Kingdom, the scope of the mission is very wide, so there are several other fourth-level mercenary groups and third-level mercenary groups that have taken over the task at the same time. ”
Speaking of this, Quiles frowned and asked Luca: "The Golls Mountains are at least five days away from here, even after riding a horse to the periphery of the Gols Mountains, you have to abandon your horse and walk, and the huge mountain range, how can we search for it? Luca, are you a little reckless to take on this task?"
Quells's questioning also represented the questioning of several other people, and everyone looked at Lukka with a puzzled gaze.
Only Lance had decided that he would continue this task no matter what.
Regardless of whether he will meet Eliface Levy, who has disappeared for a long time, he will go to meet this undead summon creature at the peak of the middle stage of the high-level realm.
Lilith, on the other hand, had a nonchalant face, and it didn't matter where she went, as long as Lance was there.
Looking at everyone's puzzled eyes, Lukka smiled a little awkwardly at everyone, and then said: "This is one of the few missions that have been released recently about sniping the undead, in terms of the difficulty of the task, although it is a bit big, but for us, it is both challenging and can get a considerable reward, and several other tasks require a large number of mercenaries to complete." ”
At this time, Dilansel also spoke: "There is no problem in doing this task, but as Quells said, the Goles Mountains are so big, just a few of us, I'm afraid we won't be able to search for them in a few months." ”
"Then why don't I go and return the mission? I won't be able to deduct many points and money anyway. ”
When Quells and Dilancer said this, Luka also realized that he was a bit reckless in taking on this task.
