Chapter 164 Back to the ground

The prestige of Thain's quasi-mage is very high, or in other words, the prestige of the Holy Tower of Origin of Jade is very high.

The day after Thain arrived at the mining area, the cleanup of underground spaces throughout the mining area began in an orderly manner.

Thain himself also participated in it personally. One of the mines he entered was the mine where the mutated quasi-level monster appeared half a month ago.

"How's it going, Xiaoqi, have you found anything?" Walking in the mine, Thane asked Xiaoqi who was flying in front.

"Gugu, there is indeed the residual aura of a quasi-level monster, but it's not the type of monster I know."

"He seems to be a rather violent guy." Xiao Qi said as he stopped in front of a pit in the mine.

The dent in the mine in front of me is not naturally formed. From the appearance, it looks more like it was cut by the sharp claws of some kind of tyrannical creature.

In the center of the indentation, Thain used tweezers to collect several brown-black hairs.

Before he could continue to collect information, fierce fighting and shouting came from the depths of the mine ahead.

It's those mercenary groups who have made war with unknown creatures.

Quickly putting these hairs into test tubes, Thain and Xiao Qi jumped towards the battle area.

The dark underground mine is not an ideal fighting area for knights who are not familiar with the underground environment.

While on the surface, these experienced elite mercenaries are not afraid to challenge any creature of the same level.

But underground, where darkness and vision are limited, they are likely to be defeated at the hands of underground creatures that are weaker than themselves.

This is also the reason why the previous three mercenary groups tried every means to avoid exploring the underground mines.

Unfortunately, as a Holy Tower magician, Thain's time is very precious, and he naturally has no interest in wasting it on these people's wrangling.

Moreover, he is not very interested in thinking about the life and death of people who have nothing to do with him.

Originally, these mercenaries were paid to do things.

The red-armored female knight said it was easy, but she didn't actually lead her mercenary group out of the Salt Basin when they were asked to storm the underground mine.

When Thain arrived at the fighting area, the battle here was nearing its end.

The ones who attacked these mercenary group members were indeed underground creatures that Thain was familiar with.

In addition to gray dwarves and cavemen, there is also a dark-skinned demi-human creature.

These demi-humans are generally short in stature and move quickly. They rarely confront human knights and magicians head-on. They basically attack from the side and from the shadows.

He often retreats with one strike and never hesitates to fight.

This kind of enemy hidden in the dark is indeed the most annoying.

At this time, a circle of red fighting energy particles surged around the red-armored female knight.

This is a powerful high-level attendant. She looks young, and it is quite rare for her to be able to build a large mercenary group on her own.

Three dark-skinned underground demi-humans fell beside the red-armored female knight.

These three demi-humans were all cut in half by the red-armored woman's giant sword, which clearly shows the exaggerated power possessed by the other party.

"Boss, Daz and Hank are in trouble, these bastards' weapons are poisonous."

"Although several other brothers were also injured, their wounds were treated in time." A cry came from the front.

Hearing the voice of her companion, the red-armored female knight picked up her giant sword and rushed over.

Before leaving, she also noticed Thain who arrived in time.

This little girl was quite vindictive, and after glaring at Thain again, she rushed over in a hurry.

In the dark mine, countless torches lit up part of the space, but a large area was still in darkness.

The gradually fainter moans signaled that the mercenary group was attrition when they first entered the underground mine.

As a large mercenary group, the Red Scale Mercenary Group has dozens of official members, as well as some other non-staff members.

This time when he first entered the underground mine to explore, the leader of the Red Scales did not call ordinary members to come over to die. All those who came were formal members with a certain level of fighting spirit.

Suddenly, two brothers were about to leave. This woman with a somewhat fiery temper couldn't help but chop up a piece of black ore at her feet with the giant sword in her hand.

The anger of Captain Red Scale made the mercenaries gathered around also feel a touch of sadness.

Their mercenary group is a veteran mercenary group that has experienced many years of development and has gone through countless life and death tests.

The atmosphere within the entire mercenary group is relatively harmonious, unlike some mercenary groups where there are nasty things like intrigues or behind-the-scenes actions.

Of course, this is also related to the leader's character.

The imminent departure of the two teammates made these men who were licking blood from their swords unable to help but feel sad.

It was also at this moment that an inappropriate voice suddenly appeared.

"What are you doing? These two people are not dead yet." "If you keep dragging them on like this, you will die!" Thain appeared in front of this group of mercenary knights.

Ignoring the stunned or angry expressions of these knights, Thane took out some black herbs from the space ring, crushed them into powder, and sprinkled them on the wounds of the two poisoned knights.

These black herbs were collected and discovered by Thain after entering this underground mine.

Although it is slightly different from the underground world of the Underdark, the underground world of this mine still gives Thain a lot of familiar feelings.

These herbs grow in the cracks of stones, and few people notice them.

But Thane knew that these herbs were both antidotes and poisons.

The toxins of the underground people are extracted from this herb.

Fortunately, this is a relatively low-level toxin, and the herb itself cannot even reach the level of a magic material.

If it's blue moss poison, I'm afraid it will require an antidote to remove it.

However, when he walked here, Thain didn't see a trace of blue moss. It is probably because the environment here is not suitable for plants with paralyzing toxins such as blue moss.

On the contrary, this kind of plant is more common in dark areas.

When the breathing of the two injured mercenaries gradually stabilized, the eyes of the people around him also changed somewhat when they looked at Thain.

At least there wasn't as much hostility and rejection towards him as there was at the beginning.

The Red Scale leader's eyes towards Thain also changed slightly at this time.

She reinserted the giant sword into the scabbard on her back and ordered a mercenary beside her: "Send them both out, and ask the earl of the Gigson Kingdom for medical expenses!"



As they continued to advance deeper into the underground mines, the number and frequency of attacks that Thain and others encountered became higher and higher.

This is indeed not a simple mutant monster incident.

Otherwise, why would those underground creatures appear so desperately to intercept them?

A fog gradually appeared in Thane's mind, so that he began to recall the details of his academy mission.

“Warcraft’s crazy ‘investigation’ mission, since there is the word ‘investigation’ in it, does the academy itself already know some information in advance?”

"However, the danger of this task should not exceed the official level, otherwise the academy would not let senior apprentices perform it." Thain shook his head and thought.
