Chapter 174 Mysterious Mission

Chapter 174 Mysterious Mission

Lin Li's words immediately caused everyone's attention to fall on him, and a thought came to the minds of more than a dozen Silver Hand members.

"This guy is crazy..."

Who is Tusadin? He is the only necromancer among the many mercenary groups in Oranna. He has a strength close to the level of a great wizard. It is no exaggeration to say that the Rising Sun Mercenary Group can be what it is today.

At least half of the credit for their achievements must be attributed to Tusadin. If it weren't for Tusadin's existence, how would they have the chance to squeeze into one of the top ten mercenary groups in Olanna?

But just now, this famous necromancer died at the hands of a low-level warrior...

No one could have imagined that the battle would end in such a dramatic way. Just when everyone was in despair, a low-level soldier raised a crossbow sniper crossbow and used a crossbow bolt with sacred power.

He easily shot and killed a person close to the level of a great wizard.

This guy's luck is so good...

It happened that Tusardin failed to cast a spell, and when he was at his weakest, he happened to have another crossbow arrow with sacred power. So these coincidences one after another just sent Tusardin to a dead end. At the same time,

This guy was also sent to the VIP position of Silver Hand.

Shooting Tussadin is equivalent to saving more than a dozen people in the Silver Hand, including Captain Salina herself. Such a favor cannot be thanked in just one or two sentences.

One thing is enough for the entire Silver Hand to treat him as an honored guest. Under this background, no matter what request he makes, I am afraid that Captain Salina will agree without hesitation...

For such an opportunity, everyone in the Silver Hand was envious, and they could only sum it up with one sentence: "It's great."

It's a pity that a certain low-level soldier who got mad didn't have the consciousness at all to get mad.

This guy was carrying a cross sniper crossbow, and he muttered something strange: "This magician, he looks very powerful, but it turns out he was all pretending, and he was shot to death in just one shot. I thought he was

What kind of powerful magic will be released..."

Listening to these words that deserved a beating, Selina felt her eyebrows twitching. She finally suppressed the urge to beat someone up, and then replied with great difficulty: "He... he has bad luck..."

"oh……"

"Mr. Feyre..." Among all the people present, except for Sheen, Hank is probably the one who knows the details of Lin Li best. The words just said made Hank feel more and more wrong. What does this guy do?

Keke knew it all too well. How could a person like him say such ignorant words?

But as soon as Hank opened his mouth, he suddenly found that the young magician was looking at him. Although the smile on his face was still gentle, the warning in his eyes was clearly visible to Hank...

This threatening look startled Hank.

Hank didn't even dare to think about the consequences of irritating this young magician. When he lived in Black Mountain Town, the group of bandits made him angry. What would be the end? When he was at the Chiba Tavern,

The members of the Red Moon Mercenary Group also made him angry. What would be the end? Hank didn't want to be hacked to death by the monster next to him, let alone an ice pick stuck in his chest...

So, Hank wisely buried his head.

Seeing that Hank kept silent, Lin Li showed a satisfied smile.

Are you kidding me? If you expose me with just one sentence, wouldn't everything I did before be in vain?

This is a coincidence. At the beginning, Lin Li just tried his best to restrain the magic fluctuations emanating from his body in order to prevent Tusadin from discovering it. With his mental strength, it was natural for him to do such a thing.

He is familiar with the road, and there is no difficulty at all. If Lin Li is willing, he can even control his own magic fluctuations to a completely static level. Even a legend-level figure cannot judge his true strength through the magic fluctuations emanating from him.

.

And the facts also proved that this was indeed a successful sneak attack.

Tusardin did not notice at all that among the dozen or so people in the corridor, there was actually a magician whose strength was not inferior to his own.

A magical feedback at a critical moment completely determines the outcome of this battle.

As for the subsequent sun spikes, they are not as critical as everyone thought. After controlling Tussadin with a magic feedback, Lin Li had at least several ways to kill Tussadin easily. The sun spikes were just

It is the most labor-saving one...

After shooting Tussadin, Lin Li suddenly remembered Hank's previous proposal.

To be honest, he was really excited about this proposal.

The Silver Hand is a big tree. Taking a ride with them to Fire Feather Mountain will save at least half of the energy for yourself. When the time comes, you will need a map, a carriage, and a carriage, just in case there is any trivial matter and you need someone to run errands.

, and you can also borrow a few people from Silver Hand.

But the problem is that this is a fair world. After enjoying rights, you must fulfill your obligations. If Silver Hand encounters any trouble after arriving at Fire Feather Mountain, wouldn't you also be in trouble?

So Lin Li hesitated for a moment and declined politely. He didn't like trouble, let alone helping others solve trouble.

But when Tussardin died, the trouble suddenly disappeared.

He is now the savior of everyone present, and he is also a low-level soldier. What obligations do you expect a low-level soldier to fulfill? He cannot bear an obligation that is too heavy, and there is no need for an obligation that is too light. He is the savior of your captain, you

Are you embarrassed to ask your savior to run errands?

So Lin Li carried a cross sniper crossbow and wore flame salamander leather armor, playing the role of a low-level warrior there conscientiously.

Sure enough, being low-key is the way to go...

Lin Li thought proudly, but forgot that this kind of behavior is actually called pretending...

Just as Lin Li expected, after Selina heard that he was going to Fire Feather Mountain, she enthusiastically invited him to go with him. Selina's words were: "Let's go together so that if anything happens, we can take care of him."

"

Of course, words are just words.

Whether it's Salina herself or Lin Li, who's in formal attire, they actually know the meaning of these words - young man, the place in Fire Feather Mountain is very dangerous. With the strength of a low-level warrior like you, you'd better come with us.

Already...

Anyway, just like that, Lin Li caught a ride to Huoyu Mountain before dawn.

After chatting with Selina for a few more words, Lin Li gradually understood that the Silver Hand had set up camp in Fire Feather Mountain two days ago.

And this time, it was not just the Silver Hand who went to Fire Feather Mountain. Two of the three major mercenary groups in Oranna went there this time, plus four mercenary groups that were powerful enough to enter the top ten in Oranna.

As for why these mercenary groups gathered at Fire Feather Mountain overnight, Salina did not explain it clearly. She just said that there was a big, big task to be completed. For this task, the six major mercenary groups had even blocked the

Take the road from Heishan Town to Huoyu Mountain.

When he heard the news, Lin Li couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, he caught a ride with the Silver Hand. Otherwise, just how to pass these checkpoints would be enough to give him a headache.

It's not because he's afraid of these adventurers. Although several mercenary groups are powerful, in Lin Li's eyes, they are not unstoppable forces. With his current strength, except for behemoths like the Marathon family,

, there are very few things that can scare him anymore.

But this will bring him trouble. If there is a conflict, it will definitely affect his trip to Huoyu Mountain. If he delays his return and misses the invitation from the Pharmacist Guild, it will be a waste.

All in all, in short, this guy temporarily joined the Silver Hand mercenary group as a low-level warrior.

Under a full moon, several carriages carrying people galloped towards Fire Feather Mountain...

The town of Montenegro tonight was indeed frighteningly lively. Tusadin's continuous corpse explosion skills almost demolished the hotel. It was not until a few carriages had gone away that the hotel owner who had been slapped in the face finally left with some lingering fear.

The man behind the counter looked up.

"Thank God, these guys have been sent away..." Looking at the billowing dust and smoke raised by the carriage, the middle-aged man showed an expression of relief on his face.

But then, he started to have a headache for his hotel. Before these guys left, they left enough compensation, but the second floor that had been ravaged by a series of corpse explosions could be cleaned up in a day or two? Look.

I have been very busy for a while...

"What a disaster..." The middle-aged man sighed, and just as he was about to go up to the second floor to tidy up, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from a distance.

Following him, he saw several carriages approaching from the night. At first, he thought it was the adventurers who had just left and returned, but when he saw the family emblems on the carriages, one

His face immediately turned pale with fear...

Painting one's own family's crest on the carriage is a privilege that only nobles have. The middle-aged man runs a hotel in Montenegro Town and has seen quite a few nobles, but he never expected that these carriages would

What is painted on the carriage carriage is actually a golden hammer!

"A member of the Marathon family!"

Just when the hotel owner turned pale, several carriages had slowly stopped at the door of the hotel.

A young man stepped out of the carriage. He looked less than thirty years old. He had long blond hair that looked extremely dazzling even in the dark night. His handsome face and red eyes were clad in a black robe.

Under the wrap, his whole body was filled with a kind of evil charm. When he pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, it immediately reminded people of a word - evil smile!

"It's really a country place..." The young man seemed to complain in a low voice after getting off the carriage, and then turned around and waved to the innkeeper: "Come here."

"Dear Sir, what are your orders?" This was a member of the Marathon family. When the innkeeper saw him waving, he hurriedly nodded and bowed to greet him.

"Is there someone making trouble here tonight?"

"How do you know?" The innkeeper was startled.

After all, he is just a businessman. No matter how well-informed he is, he will never understand that a magician can judge countless information with just a trace of residual magic fluctuation...

"Don't worry about how I know it. Just answer my question. Take a good look at this. Is there a person like this staying in your hotel?" After saying that, the young man took something out of his pocket.

A picture was handed to the innkeeper who was nodding and bowing.

The picture shows a young man who is also wearing a black robe. He looks to be in his twenties, has short black hair and black eyes. He has a delicate face and a gentle smile. At first sight, he can't help but fall in love with him.

.

The hotel owner took the picture, frowned and looked at it for a long time, and then nodded with some uncertainty: "It seems that there is such a person..."

"Where is he now?"

"He just left."

"gone?"

"Yes, he left in a carriage about half an hour ago."

"Half an hour ago..." The young man thought for a moment and took out a bag of gold coins from his pocket. The bag was heavy and contained about a hundred gold coins. The young man took the gold coins in his hand and waved them in front of the hotel owner.

: "Think carefully about where this man went in the carriage. If you can remember, this bag of gold coins will be yours."

"By the way, let me remind you, if you dare to lie to me..."

"Don't you dare..." The innkeeper quickly clarified that he was telling the truth. He was from the Marathon family. Even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to deceive Marathon for a bag of gold coins.

Family people.

The innkeeper frowned tightly. After thinking hard for a while, he finally thought about it: "By the way, I remembered it. The adventurers with him seemed to have said that they were going to the fire."

Yushan!”

"Fire Feather Mountain?" The young man put the gold coin into the innkeeper's hand, walked quickly to a carriage, and whispered a few words to the people in the carriage. After a while, he saw him raise his head,

An order was issued to several other carriages: "We must arrive at Fire Feather Mountain before dawn!"

It was only a two-hour journey from Heishan Town to Huoyu Mountain. Lin Li was lying in the carriage and just squinting his eyes, he felt the unique temperature of Huoyu Mountain.

"Mr. Feyre, we're here." Hank stopped the carriage and carefully woke up Lin Li.

"So fast?" Lin Li rubbed his eyes, with a hint of sleepiness on his face. When he came out of the car, he suddenly stopped again: "Hank, my name is Feyre, not Mr. Feyre.

By the way, I am a fifth-level warrior, not a magician. If you admit the wrong person next time, you may have a little trouble..."

"..."

Six mercenary groups set up six camps under Fire Feather Mountain, among which the Silver Hand camp was at the outermost edge. After Lin Li got off the carriage, he saw hundreds of tents densely connected together at a glance.

This means at least thousands of adventurers...

For a moment, Lin Li couldn't help but wonder, what kind of mission was this that would attract six powerful mercenary groups at the same time?

The three major mercenary groups in Olanna are no joke. Lin Li doesn't know much about the strength of the other two, but because of Ina's relationship, he knows more or less about the Silver Hand. Even if he puts aside the famous

Not to mention Silver Storm, the Silver Hand has thousands of adventurers of all levels, including at least several hundred who have reached level ten or above.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard for Lin Li to believe that there was any task that the Silver Hand could not complete alone, but had to cooperate with several other mercenary groups.

Cooperation is not common for mercenary groups...

As the saying goes, peers are enemies, especially heavyweight peers like the three major mercenary groups. They are enemies among enemies. Each of the three major mercenary groups in Olanna controls thousands of adventurers, and their numbers are so huge.

As a group of adventurers, some conflicts are inevitable in daily life. Especially when conflicts of interest are involved, such conflicts will become extremely sharp. Getting them to cooperate is simply harder than reaching the sky...

But this time the mission really made them cooperate, and it seemed that they cooperated well. At least when they set up camp together, they didn't start fighting as soon as they met.

With some doubts, Lin Li followed Salina and others towards the Silver Hand's camp.

The Silver Hand's camp was well arranged, with more than a hundred tents occupying a large open space. Around the tents, several temporary sentry towers were set up, and several sharp-eyed archers were keeping watch on the sentry towers.

Under the guard tower, groups of heavily armed soldiers were patrolling back and forth in the camp.

The alertness is good... This is Lin Li's evaluation of Silver Hand.

That's why he was a little confused. How could the alert Silver Hand allow the leader to be blocked in the hotel and almost killed by a group of less powerful adventurers?

Unfortunately, before he could finish his doubts, he spotted a familiar figure...

The tent in the center of the camp is the largest in the entire camp. There is no doubt that this is the temporary headquarters of the Silver Hand, and the familiar figure walked out of this tent. He looks to be in his twenties and is dressed as a warrior.

Dressed up, her blond hair looks particularly dazzling in the early morning sun.

"Holy crap, why is it this guy!" Lin Li was shocked. It was Elaine who came out of the tent!

After visiting the black market together that day, we haven't seen this guy. Lin Li was a little surprised at the time. He had clearly asked him to come to the Magic Guild the next day to pick up the Bull Power potion, but why he hadn't been seen. Now Lin Li understood

, it turns out that this guy actually ran to Fire Feather Mountain one step ahead of me...

It makes some sense when you think about it. This guy is also one of the top ten mercenary group leaders. It's not strange that he has a share of this mission.

But why did he choose this time to show up...

Lin Li was really confused. It would not be a good thing to bump into Elaine at this time. If this guy is ignorant and reveals his background in one sentence, he will be in big trouble...

"Captain Salina, you are finally back..." Elaine saw the Silver Hand people coming from a distance, and immediately rushed forward with an anxious expression. However, just halfway through, the expression on Elaine's face was...

He froze because he discovered Lin Li among the crowd: "Fei...Fei Lei..."

"Captain Elaine, is it really you?" Lin Li didn't dare to give him a chance to speak. How should he explain himself if he called out Magician Ferey? The expression on Elaine's face just froze, and Lin Li was already

He came over with a face of surprise and gave Elaine a warm hug: "When do you plan to pay me back?"

"..." Elaine almost bit her tongue, thinking, don't you owe me three bottles of Bull Power potion? Why do I suddenly owe you money again?

Fortunately, Elaine is also a smart person. When he saw the wrong look on Lin Li's face, he knew that this young magician must have something to hide, so he did not dare to neglect at that moment and quickly followed his words: "This

…Can we talk about this matter later?”

"Another reprieve? You've been on reprieve for several months..." Taking advantage of the opportunity to press for debts, Lin Li lowered his voice and said to Elaine: "Remember, except for the money you owe me, everything else

You don’t know anything about it, do you understand?”

"Understood..." Elaine nodded, but the look on his face was extremely embarrassing. The leader of the top ten mercenary groups was actually being forced to pay debts in public. If this spread, I don't know what he would be embarrassed about.

place.

"Captain Elaine, what do you want from me?" Fortunately, Salina spoke in time to avoid Elaine's embarrassment.

"That's it, Captain Salina, I've already done what you asked me to do yesterday, and now the drawings are placed in your tent. Do you want to go over and take a look now?"

"I'll go right away." Salina nodded and called Hank over again, asking him to help Lin Li and others find a place to settle down first.

At the beginning, Lin Li actually wanted to call Elaine, firstly to unify his tone, and secondly to inquire about the mission. It doesn't matter if Salina refuses to say it, Elaine won't say it either, right? It's a pity that Salina

Na didn't give him a chance. Before entering the tent, she stopped Elaine again and said she had something to discuss with him.

In desperation, Lin Li had no choice but to follow Hank and find two tents to stay in in the north of the camp near the campfire.

"Hank, come in and chat." Lin Li had just dozed off in the carriage, but he had forgotten to ask many questions. Now that he had time anyway, he was not in a hurry to rest, so he simply left Hank behind and asked him.

A question that I couldn't figure out along the way came up: "Tell me, how did you get blocked by the Rising Sun Mercenary Group last night?"

The reason why I want to know the reason is not because Lin Li is nosy.

Tusardin's words before his death left a deep impression on him.

"It turns out...it's you..." These words were said from the mouth of a necromancer. No matter who heard it, they would probably be terrified. Being noticed by the necromancer was different from being targeted by a poisonous snake.

respectively?

That's why Lin Li was eager to know what was hidden in this...
