War is not a child's play, and there is no tenderness in it.
Shortly after receiving the latest information, battle orders were issued from the marshal's camp one after another, and the entire military camp began to move like a giant beast waking up.
Soon, Rosen and others also received new orders from the herald.
'Frontline exploration to ensure there are no ambush around the march route.'
Rosen felt his body and rested for more than an hour. His mana was completely restored.
He thought secretly: 'Although I have the assistance of the secret blue potion, my mana recovery speed seems to be much faster than that of ordinary mages."
The instructor said that it usually takes about half a day to a day for a low-level mage to recover after running out of mana, and the fastest is 6 hours.
Past experience also tells Rosen that he only needs three hours at most.
I probably know that this matter is related to the Lord of the Universe meditation. Although I don’t know the reason, it is still a good thing.
Seeing Rosen's cooperation, Xialina chuckled and waved her hand fiercely.
The other party looked to be in her mid-twenties, wearing a pure black iron-lined thick leather armor, a mask, and a hood, revealing only a pair of golden brown eyes, and her weapon was a very fine medium-sized steel
crossbow.
"There's someone mining in the valley. It's not a human, it's the beast Rosen. Come and see if it's the animal-turned-townsman you met before?"
There was a gloating smile on Captain Hamill's lips, and his expression seemed to say: 'You see, the Pure World Temple is not easy to mess with.'
‘Haha~’
Rosen was startled and couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you going to recruit all three teams?"
"We have received authorization from the count to urgently recruit up to three teams of Silver Moon Rangers to assist in our investigation mission."
Yes, after the battle, Faerun accidentally made a move and said "Ms. Sharina" once.
A blue and gold paper scroll unfolded in front of Rosen's eyes.
Afterwards, a group of seventeen people walked along the road towards Yuehui Town.
Who can refuse the call from the Pure World Holy Church?
Rosen then made another military salute: "Ms. Sharina, in the name of Count Omisia, we will be at your disposal."
"Follow me up the mountain and take another route to the pyroxene mine."
The mountain road is rugged and difficult, but fortunately it is late winter, there are no weeds blocking the view, and there are no poisonous insects on the road. Although it is a bit tiring, it is still safe.
Having said this, she paused, turned around, and looked around at everyone behind her with solemn eyes.
‘Brush~’
The voice was loud, but it couldn't hide the panic in my heart.
Then he looked at Captain Hamill: "Everyone is okay, right?"
"Ah?" Rosen was startled. Being stared at by the Pure World Holy Church was not a good thing.
It's a wolf orc.
Rosen was stunned and turned to look at Captain Hamill.
Rosen was startled and looked up at Xia Lina, only to see that her golden brown eyes seemed to have a deep meaning.
Xialina smiled faintly: "Didn't we meet before in the wasteland north of Silver Moon Castle?"
"The most that remains today is just a ray of soul that is about to be extinguished. There may not even be a soul at all, but there are just liars using their names. What's so scary?!"
Rosen thought for a moment and recalled the original scene.
After saying that, she took the lead and turned into the narrow mountain road next to the avenue.
"At least a thousand years ago from today, we have experienced the Golden Trial, and even the most powerful ancient gods have fallen."
He looked around the entire mine again, and found more than thirty active wolf-orcs, as well as many fresh traces of life.
"very good!"
But he thought to himself: 'What Thrandis said is indeed true. As long as you become stronger, you will be recruited by the temple and face unpredictable dangers.'
Her golden brown eyes looked around Silver Moon Ranger.
"First, confirm whether the King of Neverwinter really exists."
After bringing enough supplies, the group trotted out of the camp.
There are a total of 6 warriors in this team, and the leader is actually a female warrior.
After saying this, she said nothing again and only focused on leading the way.
Captain Hamill felt a little shameless and muttered: "Can't you explain it clearly in one sentence? It's so scary."
After walking for a while, Rosen said again: "Ms. Sharina, we still have a team of comrades investigating on the front line. At that time, General Chabolai ordered them to investigate the Labyrinth Forest. We may be able to meet them."
Captain Hamill interjected: "But what are these monsters doing in the mine?"
Xialina turned to look at him and said calmly: "Master Rosen, your task is to obey my orders. Don't ask any questions about the rest."
That is the pyroxene mine.
Handing the telescope back to Xialina: "Yes, they are ordinary beast-turned-townspeople. Judging from the traces, the total number may be seventy or eighty."
Xialina didn't seem to notice these little moves, and she continued to introduce the situation.
Seeing Rosen's expression of surprise, Xia Lina smiled lightly: "Mage, to tell you the truth, I have been paying attention to you for a long time."
She didn't hide it: "Our trip is to investigate the King of Neverwinter."
"So, our plan has two steps."
Rosen turned to look at Captain Hamill behind him. Captain Hamill spread his hands with a look of helplessness on his face.
After saying this, the faces of the Silver Moon Rangers suddenly became much better.
A group of Silver Moon warriors looked at each other, and Rosen was confused: "But we just received a military order."
A huge valley appeared at the foot of the mountain ahead. The ground in the valley was covered with green gravel. Seven or eight holes of different sizes could be seen on the rock wall. Support frames made of logs could be seen around each hole.
Looking at the other rangers, they all shrugged helplessly.
Thinking of this, he nodded in agreement: "Captain Sharina is right. If you can complete this investigation mission, the temple rewards will definitely be very generous, no less than those for meritorious service on the battlefield."
Captain Hamill secretly rolled his eyes and waved his fist slightly, saying that if the other party hadn't been from the Purity Temple, he would have beaten her all over the ground!
"Set off!"
Since the count agreed, they naturally had nothing to say.
Rosen squinted his eyes to check and found that it was indeed the count's handwriting, and it was also stamped with the count's unique magic seal.
When they set out again, everyone had no horses to ride.
"Small injury, no problem!"
Hamil looked stern and nodded immediately: "Understood!"
Xialina raised her hand to signal everyone to stop, then took out a bronze telescope from the bag on her back and carefully observed the situation in the valley.
"This is the count's authorization!"
Rosen's heart moved, and he had already guessed Xialina's purpose.
"Now that the ice dwarves have invaded and the Yellow River Highlands are in flames of war, it is likely that the power of this ancient god will be strengthened."
Rosen thought he was about to venture into the tiger and wolf den again, but he didn't expect that he was stopped by a group of black warriors as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the camp.
Now it's clear.
When it was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun set near the horizon and the sunlight quickly turned dark red, everyone climbed to the top of the mountain forest.
As soon as these words came out, Rosen and the other five exorcist warriors behaved normally, but the Silver Moon Rangers headed by Captain Hamill all looked frightened.
"What this sentence means is that you have been recruited by me!"
The female warrior stepped forward and nodded slightly to signal to everyone.
However, the news that needs to be said still needs to be said.
"In the ancient tribal period, there was a powerful tribe called Zainaro in the Huangshui Highlands, and the god they worshiped was the King of Neverwinter!"
Rosen took the telescope and looked at the location pointed by the other party, and sure enough he saw a moving figure.
First, because their horses were injured and their endurance was exhausted. Second, because the exploration site was in a mountain forest near the road, and it was impossible to ride horses in the mountains.
These words made Rosen's heart move: "Ms. Sharina, do you know me?"
"Understood."
"yes."
Xia Lina shouted again, then turned around and walked towards Yuehui Town.
"Okay, let's hurry up! We have to get to the mine before dark!"
Ms. Sharina smiled coldly: "Captain, are you deaf? I'm talking about the gods from the ancient times! The ancient times! Do you understand?"
With this said, the resistance of the soldiers became much weaker.
"Yes, you brought the initial news to the earl. The earl didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a group of delusional people taking advantage of the chaos to play tricks, but I don't think so."
As a professional exorcist warrior, the other party must know a lot of information that is not convenient for public disclosure, and maybe he will find an opportunity to talk to him in private.
Rosen also turned to Hamil and said: "Captain, let everyone be more vigilant. Not only must we be wary of the beast-turned-townspeople, but we must also be wary of the ice dwarves."
"Then let's go."
Xialina smiled faintly: "It's really hard for you to bear to ask now."
This time, Xia Lina did not criticize anyone. She nodded: "Thank you for the information, Master Rosen. I will refer to it."
After saying that, she shouted: "Rangers, do you understand?"
As she watched, her face gradually became serious.
"The data shows that the King of Neverwinter is a huge banyan tree. He is the ancient god of war and is very sensitive to the atmosphere of war in the world."
After walking for about an hour, and when they were about 20 miles away from Yuehui Town, Xia Lina raised her hand and issued an order:
Captain Hamill shouted: "Ms. Sharina, are you not mistaken? We are all mortals, how can we care about God's affairs? Are you not seeking death?!"
Rosen also noticed that this female warrior has an excellent figure. She is very similar to the widowed sister from Marvel, but even hotter!
On the chest of her thick leather armor, there is a dark golden symbol that has been severely deformed by being propped up on the ground. It is a circle with an upright equilateral triangle inside the circle, and then a long sword penetrates the two.
This is normal. The war is coming, and everyone is working hard on the front line to make contributions. But in the end, they went to the mines to investigate Lao Shizi's King of Neverwinter. It's really boring to think about it.
Xialina laughed: "Don't panic, mage, I'm just curious."
Then, she said in an indifferent tone as if she was owed ten thousand crowns: "I am Sharina, the exorcist warrior captain of the Pure World Temple, and they are my team members."
She handed the binoculars to Rosen.
"Second, if it exists, find the hiding place of the ancient soul and completely destroy it while it is still weak!"
The snout is elongated, with long canine teeth. The skin is blue and black, the arms are elongated past the knees, and the fingertips have nails that look like cat claws. Although the person walks upright, it is wobbly and unsteady, and he needs to use his hands to assist from time to time.
At first glance, it looked like an orangutan.
There was a movement in my heart, and I had a vague feeling that the situation was far from as optimistic as the other party said.
He recognized the symbol because it belonged to the Holy Temple, a terrifying institution that could stop children from crying at night.
Xialina waved her hand behind her: "Enter the queue!"
The rangers responded in unison, but their voices were not very high and they seemed to be lacking in interest.
The telescope was of average quality and the light was dim, so the figure looked very blurry, but this naturally did not faze Rosen. He opened his adventure journal to zoom in.
Rosen spread his hands and said that he had seen it and would not be stupid again in the future.
Rosen heard this and looked at him gloatingly.
Rosen led a group of people and followed Sharina.
After he was ready to be frustrated again, he asked: "Ms. Sharina, can you tell us the specific investigation mission?"
But Sharina didn't care about this: "Okay, rangers, you may think I'm troublesome now, but you will thank me in the future. Am I right, Master Rosen?"
Rosen smiled faintly: "Moonstone is a good thing. We can use it, and so can those ice dwarf wizards."
Sharina put away the telescope and sighed.
"It seems that our investigation has encountered huge obstacles."
"But no matter what, this is all tomorrow. Today, we have to find a place to repair it."
