Chapter 190: Mercenaries

readx;

The recovery of consciousness is different from the degree of recovery of the sword Even if the mind is assisted by the elixir, the one-yuan heavy energy is not far behind, and it takes a full five days to consume eight or nine points of divine consciousness to recover about thirty percent, and it will take at least half a month to fully recover. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the fourth day of recovery, Qin Zhan's heart moved slightly, and the existing team of mercenaries who had not fully recovered their divine consciousness were groping their way in his direction.

When he appeared this group of mercenaries through his divine sense, the Yu Huang who was guarding the side was also aware of it, and the huge body that was originally lying lazily on the ground immediately woke up, and his dark purple pupils looked in the direction of the source of the sound, exuding the ferocity unique to demon beasts. At the same time, the meaning was transmitted in his mind, and he asked Qin Zhan if he would let him go over and destroy all the mercenaries.

"Wait a minute, this group of mercenaries may just pass through here by accident. Right now that we're in the West, it's better to be careful. ”

Although Yu Huang was a little dissatisfied when he received Qin Zhan's transmission of ideas, he still lay down again, but his fierce gaze never left the direction from which the voice came.

Qin Zhan had temporarily stopped the recovery of his divine consciousness at this moment, but released his divine sense, and quickly locked on a team of five mercenaries five miles away.

This group of mercenaries is both in the East and in the West. It's a good team. The captain has the cultivation of the eighth layer of qi refining, the vice captain and another middle-aged man are the seventh layer of qi refining, and the remaining two are all six layers of qi refining, this kind of lineup, unless they encounter more than five hundred years of demon beasts or thousand-year demon beasts, they can definitely come and go freely in the edge of the polar mountain range.

Several mercenaries were circling around this area, as if they were looking for something, and when they found the place where Qin Zhan had recovered nearly three miles away, the deputy captain was already frowning, and took out a map describing this area from his body: "According to the mission clues provided by the Mercenary Guild of Dusk City, that high-level demon beast is obviously haunted near this area. But we've all been around this area for almost a day, and we haven't seen a clue about that kind of high-level demon beast yet, could it be that the people who set up the mission are mistaken?"

The captain of the eighth layer of Qi refining heard his complaints, shook his head and said, "The person who set up the mission also said that this may be a new breed of high-level demon beast, and it may even be a young beast from the polar mountains. We've never seen that before. Since I haven't seen it. Ordinary experience in searching for monsters may not work. ”

"Our mercenary group has received at least a hundred tasks to determine the area where the demon beasts are active. The place where three thousand-year-old demon beasts died was once determined, if this demon beast had indeed lived in this area and looked for it for a day, it was impossible for us not to find it, right?"

"Anyway, keep looking. We also asked some mercenaries who had come out of the mountains after completing their missions yesterday, and they had indeed seen a handsome golden bird in this area. Obviously, that's the monster beast that needs to be played in this mission!" Speaking of this, the captain laughed and clapped his hands to regain everyone's attention: "Think about it, everyone, this is a monster that has never appeared in the Western Big 6. If our third squad is the first to show up, or even catch it, this demon beast will definitely be named after our mercenary group! And judging from the descriptions of those people about this demon beast, this is definitely not a simple ordinary demon beast, if it grows up in the future. Famous 6 years old, loaded in books. People will naturally think of us who were the first to appear as a flying demon beast, and when the time comes, the third squad of our Wind Chasing Mercenary Regiment will be famous in history. ”

Instigated by this captain, the other few people who had been looking for no clues for a day suddenly flashed a glimmer of light between their eyebrows, and the thoughts of several of them were guided by the captain, and they naturally remembered the moment when they were really famous in the future, and a smile unconsciously hung up on the corner of their mouths.

"All right, gentlemen, take heart. Daydreaming is not the style of our wind-chasing mercenary group, let's take action, whether we can keep the big 6 or not, it depends on this time. ”

"Okay". The eleven mercenaries shouted with high spirits, and immediately devoted themselves to the search for the mysterious flying demon beast again.

Hearing this, Qin Zhan understood what he was doing, and summed it up to himself: "The golden variety, which comes from within the Polar Mountains and has never appeared in the West, and it has appeared in the last few days, and it is active in the vicinity, isn't this the Yuhuang."

Although the Golden-winged Dapeng is a divine beast, it is impossible to let him protect the Dharma for himself for five days.

Moreover, even if it is willing to protect the Dharma for itself. It had to go out hunting and replenish its strength, so it went out at least four or five times in the past five days.

Obviously, he still underestimated the weight of the demon beast in the minds of the Westerners, but he didn't expect those Westerners to be able to devote such a high level of enthusiasm to just a monster beast that they had never seen before. No, seeing the extremely handsome Golden-winged Dapeng, those powerful people were moved, and the idea of the Golden-winged Dapeng came.

If he is a legendary swordsman in the West, and he brings such a new breed of demon beast into the Western world, even if there will be a certain amount of trouble, it will not be too big after all, and he can rely on the strength of the legendary level to solve it, but now, does he dare to take the Feather Emperor into the Western world to wander around?

Thinking of this, Qin Zhan glanced at the Yu Emperor beside him helplessly, and said, "Old man, it seems that after entering the Western World, you have to retreat for a while." What do you think of the central region of the Polar Mountains? How about you use your strength to get close to the fourth-layer legendary creatures of the Avatars, go there and occupy a piece of territory and collect some younger brothers to play?

For this proposal, the feather emperor, who was naturally yearning for free and soaring, naturally didn't want to think about it, and immediately agreed, and his original lazy attitude immediately changed, and he stood up energetically, looking at him with dark purple pupils, as if he was guessing the truth of these words!

"Haha, it looks like five days really suffocated you, okay, of course I didn't lie to you, go ahead, do whatever you want. If there is an emergency, I will naturally call you. As long as you don't go too deep into the mountains, it won't take you more than a few hours to get to the city of twilight without my burden

Receiving Qin Zhan's Ken, the Feather Emperor immediately let out a cry full of pleasure, and then suddenly spread his wings and rose from the ground. At the same time, he asked if he wanted to help solve the mercenaries who were in the way.

"No need, these mercenaries are here just in time, I really don't know much about everything in the West, if possible, it's better to understand some basic things from them, the mercenaries are running around in a humble age, the information channels are relatively broad, understand Qingyi, the mountain can avoid being like now, make two mistakes in a row, Yuhuang screamed twice, as if he was a little embarrassed to bring these troubles to himself, that Yanshen expression. It's full of humanity.

"Well, I don't blame you, the mercenaries are already here. Go ahead. ”

The Feather Emperor screamed softly, and suddenly set off a violent air current, roaring into the air, like a golden arrow directly into the clouds, accompanied by the exclamations of several nearby mercenaries from far and near, turning into a golden streamer and disappearing at the end of the sky.

Although the temporary departure of the Golden-winged Dapeng Bird made Qin Zhan feel a little uncomfortable, in order to better disguise his identity from the East, he had to do it as a last resort.

A moment later, there was a small sound in the woods next to him, and after a while, the eighth-layer mercenary with the highest cultivation of Qi refining suddenly shot out from the woods, and fell to a clearing not far from Qin Zhan in the blink of an eye, and then, the remaining mercenaries rushed over in no particular order, looking at the golden-winged Dapeng bird that had disappeared into the clouds with a look of surprise.

"It's so fast, this degree, even if it's much faster than the thousand-year-old demon beast-level griffin we saw last time, it's not much faster" No, I'm afraid it's a point faster than the griffin's degree!"

"Could it be that this is also a flying demon beast that has cultivated for thousands of years?"

"Fortunately, we didn't recklessly use drastic methods to force this demon beast out, otherwise we would have annoyed this thousand-year-old demon beast, let alone our team. Even if you count the other members who are looking for in other regions, I'm afraid it won't be enough for this thousand-year-old demon beast to kill. ”

"Is this really a thousand-year-old demon beast?"

"No, how could a thousand-year-old demon beast appear in the edge area?"

A wave of discussion came out from the six people, and Qin Zhan, who was only separated by a sparse tree wall, naturally heard it clearly.

As soon as his body moved, Qin Zhan had already crossed a few trees where there was no barrier between the two sides, and appeared in a clearing not far from the six people, speaking in a rather fluent Western language:

"Well, what do you seem to think of my partner? Could it be that you're here for it?"

Seeing this young man who suddenly appeared, several mercenaries present were taken aback at the same time, and a trace of vigilance immediately appeared between their eyebrows. Several of them even reached out to draw their swords.

However, before they could draw their swords, the captain of the eighth layer of Qi refining immediately shouted: "What are you doing, what are you doing one by one, hurry up and put away your sword." Don't be rude to the master!"

"Master!?"

The few remaining mercenaries are not ignorant. Thinking carefully of Qin Zhan's words, he suddenly understood.

To be able to subdue a thousand-year-old demon beast and become a partner, apart from the kendo master, how can an ordinary cultivator be able to do it?

Thinking that several of them were actually planning to draw their swords against a kendo master, the five mercenaries broke out in a cold sweat at the same time, and hurriedly put away their swords. I no longer dare to behave in the slightest disrespectful act that may cause misunderstanding.

Kendo masters, even if they are all figures with status in the temple, such as the city of twilight, where there is no order at all and the strong are respected, they have ten percent of the power of life and death, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the overlords of the ruling side. Like their Wind Chasing Mercenary Regiment. It is precisely because of the existence of the regiment leader that they can safely gain a foothold in the chaotic city of twilight, and their regiment leader has also turned into a second-layer cultivator!

This shows the nobility of a kendo master's status.

The captain of the eighth layer of Qi refining took a deep breath and bowed to Qin Zhan with a respectful expression: "Master, there is no way to discipline in the car, which makes the team members more offended, and I hope that the master has a lot, don't be like them." ”

"Well, not to mention that matter, judging from your words and deeds just now, it seems that you have come here specifically for my partner this time, I think. Surely you will not hide such a small thing from me, do you say?"

The captain of the eighth layer of Qi refining heard the unkindness in Qin Zhan's tone, and hurriedly told the truth what had happened.

In fact, it is similar to Qin Zhan's prediction, but there are deviations in subtleties. When a brother of the Kate family passed through this area, he saw the Golden-winged Roc flying through the sky, and was immediately attracted by the noble body and gorgeous appearance of the Golden-winged Roc, and was deeply fascinated by it. But later the matter was learned by his grandfather, who was a monster fan. He was so interested in this monster that he had described that he had never seen before, so much so that he set up a mission in the mercenary union. Let people determine the location of the Golden Winged Roc. Then take it upon yourself to capture this flying monster.

After hearing his words, Qin Zhan couldn't help frowning. I can't imagine that I am so low-key and unwilling to attract the attention of others, and I don't want to be noticed anymore.

The mercenary of the eighth layer of "Master" Qi Refining looked at Qin Zhan who was frowning, with a hint of nervousness in his tone that could not be concealed: "Master, I don't know, can we go first?"

"Did I tell you to go?"

As soon as these words were finished, not only the mercenary of the eighth layer of Qi refining who was in charge of the conversation, but also several other people were taken aback, their expressions full of panic! The least valuable thing is human life, and if a kendo master wants to kill them, they don't even have a place to cry.

"Master, you, what else do you have to command?"

At this time, they were extremely looking forward to the members of the other teams who saw the Golden-winged Dapeng take off to come over soon, and it was best that even the head of the group would come in person, so that for the sake of the face of the head of the group and the master of the sword, at least they could save their lives.

Qin Zhan looked at their appearance, and felt a little funny in his heart, and said, "Don't be so nervous, I entered the Polar Mountains three years ago, and now I have just finished my training and returned." But now the direction that comes out. Obviously not a region that I am familiar with, so now I want to ask you. Just the road. ”

Although Qin Zhan said that he was asking for directions, the few people present did not dare to relax at all, and hurriedly replied: "Master, now this area belongs to the generation of the City of Dusk, that is, one of the twenty-four marginal cities of our Xiyi, and is under the jurisdiction of the two families of Laura and Silver Leaf and the Fierce Wolf Mercenary Group! You only need to walk straight in this direction for less than a hundred miles to be able to see the residential area outside the City of Dusk!"

"Twenty-four marginal cities?" a smile appeared on the corner of Qin Zhan's mouth: "Yes, I have lived in the West for so long, but I have never been to any marginal city, now that I have entered the area of the marginal city, I naturally have to take a good look at it." ”

"I've never been on the edge of any of them, and the mercenaries of the eighth layer of the continent were slightly stunned. The face boiled suddenly had this difficulty and looked Sichuan,. You're from the Central Temple?"

"What's the problem?"

"This, master. You should also have learned about the reason for the existence of the twenty-four fringe cities, in fact, because they did not agree with the concept of the temple, they were condemned as infidels, and had to flee to these harsh marginal areas to establish the twenty-four fringe cities. If you really come from the Central Temple and rush into the City of Dusk, you maybe, you may be hostile to the kendo masters in the city, although with the strength of the masters, you will definitely not be afraid of anything, "But at least this is not troublesome, therefore,"

Qin Zhan didn't want to cause these unnecessary disputes because of such a completely hypocritical identity, so he immediately waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I can tell you clearly, I am not from the Central Temple, nor am I from the Temple. ”

"Not a temple. Is that master from the three empires?"

"Why, I still have to report to you where I'm from!"

"No, no, no, I definitely didn't mean to ask the master your **!" although he said this in his heart, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Compared with the chaos and cruelty of the twenty-four marginal cities, although the three empires are also surging, they are simply heaven when compared to each other. Moreover, the kendo masters who came out of the three empires have been influenced by the temple all the year round, and they are generally more decent and benevolent, not to mention anything else, at least they will not go on a killing spree for no reason.

"Alright, now you'll lead the way. I hope to be able to see the walls of the City of Dusk before sunset. ”

"Yes, Master. "I know that the other party is not a kendo master in the marginal land. As long as he serves the other party well, it is impossible for his life to be in danger, and after that, the mercenary captain of the eighth layer of qi refining immediately became enthusiastic

It can be seen from the fact that the kendo master has almost life-and-death power in the city of dusk, if he can befriend a kendo master, how great influence will it be? Once he can win the favor of this kendo master and get his protection, when the time comes, even if those innate masters of the ninth level of qi refining face him, he will have to weigh it carefully.

As he walked, Qin Zhan asked him about the situation in the City of Dusk in a casual tone. With his identity as a cover for having never been to the edge, the mercenary would not have any suspicions at all.

In the midst of small talk. Qin Zhan also learned the name of this middle-aged mercenary, and at the same time had a preliminary understanding of the City of Dusk.

Compared to Qin Zhan, who only learned some superficial things, Huo De became more and more excited the more he talked. From Qin Zhan's words, he had already vaguely guessed that the person in front of him must be the successor of a certain big family in the three major empires, and he spent almost all of his time in cultivation when he was young, so that he knew very little about these human accidents.

With this idea. His mind immediately came alive.

Although the people in the marginal lands are hostile to the Temple, they yearn for the Three Great Empires very much, but although the Three Great Empires cannot directly burn these heretics like the Temple, they are very disgusted with these people who were born in those poor mountains and bad waters, and it has no certain relationship If they want to obtain the status of residents of the Three Great Empires, it is simply a luxury!

At present, since this young kendo master is from a big family of the three empires, he only needs to serve him well. If you contact the family behind him through his line, maybe the life trajectory of all the people in their entire mercenary group will change at that time.

Thinking of this, Hodder's introduction couldn't help but work harder.

One deliberately pleases. A person who has a heart to investigate, under this kind of chatting and walking, time has quickly passed out, and he has already walked out of the forest in a short time.

Out of the forest, the terrain gradually flattened, and a road that was apparently frequented by many people came into view.

Not long after he walked on the road online, a group of mercenaries about the same size as Huo De and the others came inside, and after seeing a few of them, a Qi Refining Eighth Layer cultivator immediately waved and greeted: "Hey, Huo De." That demon beast flew away, you should have seen it, is there anything present?"

"Carlo, since the demon beast has flown away, then let's not waste our minds. After speaking, he hurriedly saluted Qin Zhan respectfully: "Master, Carlo is a rough man and doesn't understand anything, don't be surprised." ”

Qin Zhan nodded. A cultivator of the eighth level of Qi refining, for him now, if he wants to kill it, it is just a matter of thought, and naturally he will not care about anything because of his words.

When Carlo heard Hodder's address to Qin Zhan, he immediately stared at Jiang and secretly looked at Qin Zhan

Eye!

As an experienced mercenary, it is natural that he will not know what it means to be able to enjoy the title of master, that is, a truly unattainable kendo master.

Although Qin Zhan's appearance looked very young, so young that he felt unbelievable for a while, but in awe of the sword and Dao masters, he didn't have the courage to ask the real reason.

"Master, since you are planning to visit the City of Twilight, why don't you let Zai Xia be a tour guide and take you in and walk around? Our Wind Chasing Mercenary Group still has some weight in the City of Twilight, if the master wants to go to any high-end places, I believe those people will still give us the head of the group some face." ”

Qin Zhan secretly said nonsense, if he didn't want you to lead the way, how could he follow you here.

Although I thought so in my heart, it was inevitably suspicious, so I still had to pretend to think about it, and only agreed after a while.

Qin Zhan nodded. Hodder was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly made a gesture of invitation: "There is a station for us in a small town not far away, and there should be a carriage in the station, so that you can be spared the trouble of traveling, Master." As he spoke, he led Qin Zhan in the direction of the City of Dusk

Walked for less than half an hour, one. The small town with a size of only a few thousand people came into view, and under the leadership of Hodder, a group of thirteen people soon arrived in front of a courtyard!

However, at this moment, the courtyard was not deserted as before, but full of more than a dozen carriages, and there were several Qi refining masters who were above the congenital level and dressed as guards on the side of each carriage, and several of them were more prominent, and they even had the cultivation of the ninth layer of Qi refining.

Although their cultivation levels are different, they all have one thing in common, that is, they all wear the badge of the Kate family, one of the famous big families in Dusk City, on their chests
