"merchant?"

Sawy's mouth twitched.

If you say that, the boss lady must be the most successful businessman in the world.

Having said that, what exactly is the boss’s name?

Saoya suddenly frowned. Since he arrived at the intermittent stronghold three days ago, he has been calling the other party with the words "professor" and the same is true for the people around him. There seems to be nothing wrong, but after calming down, Saoya immediately realized something was wrong.

If the travelers in the past do not know the name of the boss lady and can only use the three words "boss lady", then it would be a bit wrong for the "cleaner" in the tavern, the uncle in the shop next door, and the members of the patrol team to call the boss lady like this. Logically speaking, everyone has known each other for 10 or 20 years, so they should call each other by names, right?

"Strange boss lady."

Sawyer shook his head and no longer struggled with this issue. Instead of entangling the secrets of a boss lady with great powers, it is better to calm down and go into seclusion and break through the peak of the legend as soon as possible, so that he can grasp the gap through time and space.

Thinking of this, Sawyer took out a crystal coin and began to practice - the intermittent stronghold is also a gray fog stronghold, and there is no energy available for cultivation in the stronghold.

But in a gray fog stronghold that was extremely far away from Sawyer, Gregory couldn't stop wailing.

"Oh, Colin, I may not be able to do it anymore. Even your medicine can't cure me!"

Gregory said in a deep voice holding Colin's hand, which made Colin's eyes red, and Hall next to him became even more silent.

Now, it has been a month since Gregory bid farewell to the witch. Under the power of the witch, Gregory was directly teleported from the tower in the Central Ring City to the teleportation hall of Sapphire Ring City, and met Corey and Hall who were waiting here.

Originally, Gregory and the other two wanted to go to the core area of ​​Blue City to find Soya, but they didn't know whether the witch had forgotten it or did not say it on purpose. Anyway, they did not explain Soya's origin to Gregory from the beginning to the end. Gregory felt that he needed to ask Soya himself.

However, after the three of them entered the core area, they only saw the King of Sapphire Royna waiting there, and were told that Sawyna had left the ring city and headed to the intermittent camp. Gregory originally wanted to catch up, but was persuaded by Royna's random words "follow the witch's guidance." In Gregory's view, the witch's guidance is the highest order. Sawyna must have carried some important mission and could not meet with him.

So Gregory gave up his plan to find Sawyer, recruited a small team again, and embarked on a journey to fight against the expelled king.

On the first journey, because they were close to Sapphire Ring City, the strength of the gray beasts and black beasts they encountered were not too strong. However, as Gregory's team went deeper into the gray fog, the enemies they encountered became stronger and stronger. Finally, on the night before yesterday, they encountered a high-level black beast that they could not match.

The dragon python, the dragon blood species with the strongest combat power among the violent beasts, is almost comparable to the Knights of the Fifth Ring Road!

Just one encounter, the dragon python devoured two warriors, and another shook his tail to kill an archer. The mercenaries hired by Gregory immediately scattered. Gregory wanted to rush up and make a wave of rashness, but the dragon python was blown away with a breath, and his whole body was covered with corrosive acid. If Corey had not handled it in time, his life might have been lost.

Fortunately, while the dragon python's breath seriously injured Gregory, it also affected a tree-like mutant plant. The corrosive acid in the breath immediately angered the strange tree. Countless branches grew wildly. In the blink of an eye, the nearly 100-meter-long dragon python trapped the strong. While the two monsters were fighting, Gregory and the other two supported each other and escaped.

In fact, Gregory's injury was not too serious this time, but for some reason, the "Cori brand potion" that had tried Bailing in the past lost its effect. Gregory took a full rest for two days, but his injuries did not improve much.

After discussion, everyone thought that the dragon python's breath contained some substance, which eroded Gregory's body and was constantly hindering the recovery of the potion, but if Sawyer was again, they would definitely roll their eyes.

This is not the erosion of unknown substances. It is simply because Gregory did not kill the enemy. If he did not kill the enemy, he naturally would not have the gift of the will of the world. Only with the potions configured by Corey, this recovery level is normal!

The depressing silence lasted for half an hour. Except for Gregory's groan from time to time, neither Corey nor Hall said a word. Hall was habitually silent, while Corey had only Gregory on the hospital bed in his eyes. Looking at Gregory's painful appearance, he had already lost interest in speaking.

Finally, Hall left the room after saying "I'm going to find someone", and in the battle the day before yesterday, all the mercenaries they hired ran away, but in the past two days, someone has arrived at this gray fog stronghold. It's best to re-summon them while they are not large. If the number of these mercenaries is too large, who knows whether they will obey the leaders of a group of "losers" again.

Shortly after Hall left the room, the moans in the room gradually became less and as he breathed slowly, Gregory fell into a dream...

In my dream, Gregory saw a bonfire. The flames of the bonfire were not strong, and even felt like it was about to be extinguished.

Gregory has done this dream many times. Like his previous dream, Gregory just looked at the bonfire quietly, but his heart was full of depression because of his previous failure and had the urge to vent.

At this moment, a kind of enlightenment suddenly surged in Gregory's heart. He untied the black spiral sword from behind and inserted it into the bonfire. In an instant, the flames in the bonfire soared into the sky, and a figure also walked out of the flames.

"Sir Witch? Why did you appear in our dreams?"

Gregory was a little surprised. Could it be that he had too many questions to ask the witch, and then saw the witch in his dream?

"You are finally here, you are here."

The witch bowed slightly to Gregory, as if she could see Gregory's doubts, and explained with a smile: "This is not a dream, but the place where the real fire is, a special space. Now you do not have the ability to enter here, and can only put your consciousness into this space under guidance."

Gregory became even more confused: "Isn't this a dream? What about those from before? Why..."

"For that sword, that is the proof of flame, and it is it that guides you here, the heart of the world, the place where the flame first burns and the source of hope flowing."

The witch explained patiently, but Gregory understood only a small part: "That is, you will only appear if I inserted the spiral sword into the bonfire?"

“For you, there is no error in this understanding.”
