Seeing Lin Li return to the camp safe and sound, Amyndas almost dropped his jaw to the ground.
Amyndas is no stranger to the Blackstone Mountains. In fact, just over two months ago, he had just completed a mission in the Blackstone Mountains, and the location was exactly where he asked Lin Li to scout.
The woods, how dangerous those woods are, I am afraid not many people know better than Aimendas. Although there are not too many monsters in there, there are often some high-level monsters above level 18. When they
When it appeared, even a seventeenth-level magician like myself had to stay away...
Ermendas thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out how on earth Feire came out alive? Is he really so lucky? He wandered in the woods all night, but he didn't even encounter a high-level magic beast.
?
Could it be that this guy is hiding his strength?
When this idea came out of his mind, even Amyndas himself couldn't help laughing. How powerful his mental power was. Amyndas knew better than anyone else that he wanted to be in front of him.
Hiding one's strength is only possible if you are a magician above the legendary level. This Feyre is only in his twenties. If he is said to be a legendary mage, Aimendas will not believe it for the first time.
Besides, if he was really a legendary mage, he wouldn't need to hide his strength. A single word would be enough to make the entire Marfa family crawl at his feet, so he wouldn't need to pretend to be a little adventurer and come to the Blackstone Mountains to endure this.
Wronged?
In the end, Ermendas just nodded and didn't say much. However, Hahn, who had been following him, suddenly turned serious and asked in a sarcastic tone.
"The reconnaissance is over so quickly, do you really think you can fly?" Hahn put his hands behind his back and looked gloomy. When he spoke, his voice was a bit sharper than usual: "Don't think that I don't know what you are doing.
What the hell, just find a place to hide for two hours, and then come back and say that there is no danger in the woods. You are just lying. Let me tell you, this mission is related to the safety of the entire team. If you
Be smart and admit it to yourself quickly, and don't force me to report this matter to Master Hutton. I'm afraid it will be too late for you to regret it by then!"
"I said Mr. Hahn, there is indeed nothing in the woods. If you don't believe it, you can go and see for yourself. I am just a magician, not a magician. I can't conjure a bunch of monsters for you out of thin air, right?
"Lin Li glanced at Hahn, not even bothering to raise his eyelids. To be honest, ever since he first saw the short and tall housekeeper of the Marfa family, Lin Li didn't think highly of this guy. He's a bit snobbish and a bit mean. It doesn't matter.
, but can you not be so naked? Even Jonathan, a distant relative, scolds him whenever he wants without giving him any face. Do you really think that if you climb up to the Marfa family, you can fly to the sky?
Lin Li had never been interested in this kind of person. After replying with a mild reply, he no longer planned to pay attention to him.
Unexpectedly, this sentence seemed to step on Hahn's tail, making the short and thin housekeeper jump up immediately: "Who are you, dare to talk to me like this? I tell you,
Don’t think that if you know that country bumpkin Jonathan, I will give you face. Do you really think that he is my distant cousin? Damn, my Han ancestors have been stewards of the Marfa family for three generations. He, Jonathan, is a country bumpkin. What qualifications do he have to be?
My distant cousin?"
Hahn was furious, but Lin Li didn't even bother to look at him. The best way to deal with this kind of retard is not to say a word to him, otherwise he will drag you down to the same level of retardation as him.
Then use his wealth of experience to defeat you...
In comparison, Ermendas is really much stronger.
Although Emmendas also had no good intentions, at least he did a good job on the surface. Even killing someone with a borrowed knife was so good that he couldn't refuse the request he made.
"Okay, Mr. Hahn, please be quiet." Just when Hahn was making a fuss, Almendas finally spoke. He first calmed down the furious Hahn with one sentence, and then turned around and tried his best to calm down the furious Hahn.
He said to Lin Li in a calm tone: "Okay, Magician Fei Lei, I want to confirm for the last time that there is really nothing in that forest?"
Lin Li nodded firmly: "That's right."
"Okay, Magician Ferre, you can go back and rest first." Aimendas waved his hand, indicating that Lin Li could go out first. However, when Lin Li just stepped out of the tent with one foot, there was another sound from behind.
Emendas's voice: "By the way, Magician Ferre, I must remind you that your reconnaissance tonight is related to the safety of the entire team. If I find that your information is untrue, I will miss you."
There may be quite a bit of trouble..."
"Haha, the facts will prove everything." Lin Li turned around, smiled at Amendas, then turned around and left the tent.
Lin Li was really not worried at all about what Emmendas said. He had personally visited that gloomy forest. Except for a wild boar that had entered Tutankhamen's belly, there was really no trace of it.
Not even a hair could be found. Lin Li really didn't believe that Aimendas's eyes were sharper than his own life detection within a 200-meter range.
Besides...
Even if there were any magical beasts in the woods, I'm afraid they have all escaped by now. When Tutankhamun appeared last night, the pressure was even more terrifying than the legendary magical beasts. Even I had to push my mental power towards it.
Only by reaching the limit can he barely stay awake under this kind of pressure.
"That's right..." When he thought of this, Lin Li suddenly remembered that the woods were so weird, and he couldn't even see a mosquito. Could it be because Tutankhamun was here? On the way back to the tent, Lin Li felt so weird.
The more I think about it, I think this is the case. Otherwise, why can't even a single magical beast be seen in a forest located on the mountainside of the Blackstone Mountains? It is only a legend that one can emerge from the mud and remain unstained. It is an inevitable rule that only those who are close to the ink will become black.
It seems that this middle-aged man who claims to be from the prehistoric era is more powerful than he imagined...
As soon as it dawned the next day, Aimendas set off with his people.
The woods not far ahead were the only way up the mountain. Before the large group of people entered the woods, Aimendas sent several fifteenth-level thieves to conduct reconnaissance. After all, the safety of more than a hundred people was related to this.
It was such a big deal, no matter how much he wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, he would not let Lin Li in at this time.
The level 15 thieves were indeed powerful. In less than an hour, they came out of the woods one after another. However, the results they brought back really surprised Emmendas.
There was really nothing in the woods...
"How is this possible..." Emendas was stunned for a full minute before waving his hand and giving the order to continue moving forward.
Without the harassment of the Warcraft, the progress was naturally much faster. It only took less than two hours for the team to pass through the woods. The road after that was even smoother and smoother than Amyndas could imagine.
From morning to evening, he didn't even encounter a single monster. Almendas couldn't help but secretly wonder if he had gone the wrong way? Could such a quiet and peaceful place really be the Blackstone Mountains where monsters are rampant?
?
In the evening, the adventurers once again used tents and rocks to build a camp on the mountainside.
"Mage Amyndas, the second young master has sent someone to send a message with magic this afternoon to ask you when you will be able to deal with that kid." Amyndas's tent is very spacious, and there is a thick wool carpet on the ground.
, there is a folding coffee table in the middle of the tent, and four people are sitting around the coffee table. In addition to Ermendas and Hahn, there is also Granger and the big wizard.
There is a map made of parchment on the coffee table. If you look carefully, it will be easy to find that the terrain of the Blackstone Mountains is drawn on this map. Aimendas has been studying this map until Hahn speaks.
After finishing, he slowly raised his head.
"Mr. Hahn, please tell the second young master, please rest assured that we have plenty of opportunities. After entering the Scar of Death tomorrow, I will definitely give him a satisfactory result."
"Wait until you enter the Scar of Death?" Hahn's face was extremely gloomy: "Mage Ermendas, are you too careful? With your strength, it is not a problem to deal with a tenth-level magician, why bother for him?
Putting so much thought into it? Are you worried about what his background is? Don’t worry, I have already asked Jonathan. They all came from Doland, and they signed up to participate in this competition for the reward of 10,000 gold coins.
This mission, think about it, an adventurer who can be bribed with 10,000 gold coins, what kind of decent background can he have?"
"Haha..." Aimendas glanced at the other party. To be honest, he really hated this short, thin guy. He was stupid and snobbish. He never used his brain when he spoke. If it weren't for the fact that he represented
He had killed the second young master of the Marfa family, and he had already hit him in the face with a pyrotechnic.
Why doesn't this idiot think about how an ordinary tenth-level mage can be associated with those weird things again and again? Take the night when he first arrived in Blackstone Town as an example, five
A fourteenth-level adventurer ran to sneak attack him, but ended up sleeping in the camp all night for no apparent reason. If he hadn't taken action himself, they would probably still be sleeping in their dreams.
Also, it was even weirder to ask him to go scouting in the woods last night.
There were obviously all kinds of monsters running rampant in that forest, but with this guy's group, all those monsters disappeared without a trace. By the way, there was no trace of the monsters in the following section of the road.
It might be just a coincidence that this kind of thing happens once, but twice or three times, it makes people vigilant. Although so far, it is still difficult to see the depth of that Ferre, but Amyndas believes that this Ferre is definitely
It's not as simple as a tenth-level mage as he said...
Of course, you can't tell this fool like Hahn, because Amendas knows very well that even if he tells it, this fool will never believe it, and maybe he will laugh at him for being so timid.
Yes, I have no interest in explaining these things to an idiot.
"Mr. Emendas, what's going on? If you continue like this, Master Harvey may be very unhappy..." Hahn's face was extremely gloomy. Until now, he was still worried about last night.
I am still worried about the conversation. That guy named Fei Lei is simply arrogant. Who is a little tenth-level magician? He dares to show off his power in front of Uncle Hahn!
If at the beginning, Hahn was just faithfully following Master Harvey's orders, then now, he can't wait to see Feyre solved.
As the steward of the Marfa family, Hahn has always been used to walking sideways in Arminia City. Not to mention a small tenth-level magician, even one like Emmendas, who is known as the strongest in Arminia.
For the sake of the Marfa family, most adventurers would have the necessary respect for him, but he didn't expect that he would be brought to a standstill by a low-level adventurer in the Blackstone Mountains.
How can Hahn endure this breath?
"Mr. Hahn, I naturally have my own way of doing things. I don't think I need you to teach me, right?" Listening to these vaguely threatening words, Emmendas couldn't help but frown, and he couldn't help but speak.
He was as polite as before.
"..." As he was being stabbed by Amyndas while speaking, Hahn suddenly remembered that this was the strongest adventurer in Arminia, a person who even the patriarch and the two young masters had to treat politely.
I actually threatened him with my unscrupulous words. If this really made him angry, it would not end well for me.
But the words had already been spoken, and even if Hahn wanted to take them back, he couldn't keep the face off, so after a moment's hesitation, he just stood up with a cold face and left the tent with Granger.
"Hey, this Hahn is really..." Aimendas shook his head, looking somewhat helpless.
"Forget it, Ermendas, we will enter the Death Trace tomorrow. It is better to do less than to do more. You also know that this Hahn is trusted by the second young master. A conflict with him at this time may really attract the second young master's attention.
dissatisfied."
"I know..." Amyndas rubbed his eyebrows in pain: "The Marfa family attaches great importance to this mission. If something goes wrong, our young master Hutton will really turn his back on us.
of……"
After Hahn brought Granger out, he suddenly stopped in a hidden corner.
"Granger, you should be familiar with Reggie and the others, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Hahn." Granger nodded. The Reggie in Hahn's mouth was one of the thieves sent out by Ermendas to conduct reconnaissance this morning. When he was in Arminia,
These people do have some friendship with me.
Hahn gritted his teeth and said, "Then go and help me find them. If Aimendas doesn't dare to do anything, I'll do it for him."
At this time, Granger hesitated a little: "Mr. Hahn, do you want to contact the magician Emendas first about this matter?"
"Ask him? Forget it. Aimendas is so cowardly that he is even afraid of a tenth-level magician. Even if he is called a ward, he will be of no use. Don't worry, as long as Reggie and the others do it cleanly, no matter what
Something will happen."
"kindness."
But at this time, Lin Li was stunned.
Through the evil spirit lurking in Granger's body, everything in the tent could not be hidden from Lin Li's eyes and ears, but Lin Li never expected that Hahn would be so vindictive.
So much so that he didn't even listen to Ermendas' words and insisted on finding a few thieves to kill him.
"Uyfalusi, have you finished drawing the map? We don't have much time. Wait a minute, but there are a few guests who are coming to visit..."
"It'll be ready soon, Master." In the corner of the tent, Uyfalusi was using a quill pen to quickly sketch on a piece of parchment. If Emmendas were here, he would probably get it right with just one glance.
It can be seen that what Ujfalusi is sketching is the terrain of the Blackstone Mountains - to be precise, he is copying the map on the coffee table.
This is the biggest gain tonight. The evil spirit lurking in Granger's body not only overheard an assassination targeting Lin Li, but also saw the map of the Blackstone Mountains with his own eyes. The first time he saw this map
At that time, Lin Li knew that this was definitely not the low-priced goods circulated in the Adventurer's Guild. This map was so detailed that almost every place was annotated with text, especially the area called the Scar of Death.
place……
According to the text notes on the map, the Death Trace is the dividing line of the entire Blackstone Mountains. After passing through the Death Trace, you will enter the most dangerous area of the Blackstone Mountains, where countless powerful monsters live. In that area, ten
The fifth-level monsters are just the existences at the lowest level of the food chain. Those who truly dominate are those powerful beings above level 20. They are called legendary monsters. It is said that some legendary monsters have even opened their spiritual intelligence.
Can transform into a human form in a short time!
However, it is not that easy to pass through the Scar of Death. According to the map description, there seems to be a canyon that is 10,000 meters long. It almost traverses the entire Black Rock Mountains. If you look down from the sky, it looks like...
Black is like a scar on the mountain, so it is called the Scar of Death. In the Scar of Death, there live countless monsters. They are ferocious and cruel, without any sense at all. Any creature that steps into the Scar of Death will be killed.
As intruders into their territory, they will tear these intruders into pieces without mercy with their claws and fangs.
In the words of the commentary, the monsters in the Death Scar seem to be controlled by some crazy force. They are not afraid of death and will never retreat. Even if the legendary monsters step into it, they will not hesitate.
