The nights in the Blackstone Mountains were particularly cold. After a hard day's work, the adventurers returned to their tents early, wrapped themselves in sleeping bags with thick blankets, and enjoyed the rare peace of the day.
"Damn, this bastard Granger is really a born bum. Every time I see him, nothing good happens..." Under a mountain wall at the back of the camp, a young adventurer wearing black leather armor was rubbing his hands.
Warming his hands, he cursed and complained: "It's true that Mr. Hahn still insists on letting us out in such a cold weather..."
"Okay, Marco, don't talk so much nonsense. Mr. Hahn personally told us what happened this time. If we don't handle it well and offend Mr. Hahn, it will be difficult for you and me."
"I know, Brother Reggie..."
The two people who spoke were not very old. If Lin Li were here, he would probably be able to recognize them at a glance. These adventurers were the same thieves that Ermendas sent into the woods to fight in the morning.
"By the way, Brother Reggie, did Mr. Hahn tell you where those guys came from?"
"I heard that they are adventurers who came from Doland. There are four people in total, three men and one woman. Most of them are around level ten in strength. They don't seem to have any powerful backgrounds. By the way, Mr. Hahn specifically explained that that
The youngest magician must be killed, and the others should be left alone, especially that woman. I heard that Master Harvey has taken a liking to her..."
"Level ten?" Marco's eyes widened. When Granger came for him, he thought he was some kind of extraordinary person. You know, the conditions Granger offered this time were not low.
After becoming successful, in addition to a large amount of money for each person, they are also responsible for recommending to the family mercenary group and becoming a core member of the Marfa family. This is the dream of every adventurer in the entire Arminia.
Marco never thought that what Mr. Hahn was going to deal with was just a level 10 adventurer...
What is the strength of a tenth-level adventurer? They are probably similar to those guys in the Arminian Adventurers Guild who fight low-level monsters every day. They go through life and death for a few hundred gold coins every day. This kind of money is not enough for Marco.
, not enough for several people to have a meal together...
Marco shook his head, looking dumbfounded. This Mr. Hahn is really just a few level 10 adventurers. Do you want to be so serious about it? He actually asked Granger to find a group of himself.
I know that the four present here are all the top thieves among Arminian adventurers. Each of them has at least level 15 strength, especially Brother Reggie, who has reached this level as early as a month ago.
Level 16, even on the entire Qingfeng Plain, is considered quite powerful.
"I asked, brother Reggie, is Mr. Hahn a little too careful..."
"Stop talking so much, we will do whatever Mr. Hahn tells us to do. Anyway, finish the matter early and go back to rest early. Tomorrow the team will enter the Death Trace, and we will be busy by then.
"
"That's right..." Marco nodded,
After a brief conversation, the four of them walked along the mountain wall behind the camp, disappearing into the night like four ghosts.
In the tent, Lin Li was holding a map and looking attentively. This map was copied by Uyfalusi through the evil spirit. On it, every plant and tree in the Black Rock Mountains was clearly marked.
It's like a rubbing. Wherever monsters appear, where precious herbs grow, and where rare mineral veins are hidden, everything can be marked in detail on this map.
"It seems that this Marfa family is really not simple..." Lin Li looked at it and couldn't help but feel secretly frightened. Since the Marfa family can draw this map, it means that someone among them must explore.
Crossing the Blackstone Mountains, this is no joke. There are countless monsters in the Blackstone Mountains. Especially after passing through the Mark of Death, the monsters you encounter are more powerful than the last. It is no exaggeration to say that even a strong man in the legendary realm will
No one can guarantee that they will be safe and sound after passing through the scar of death...
But the Marfa family did it. Their people must have passed through the Scar of Death and explored almost the entire Blackstone Mountains. Otherwise, there would be no map in Lin Li's hand.
However, what surprised Lin Li the most was the blank space at the top of the map...
It was a rather strange blank space. The lines clearly had not been drawn to the end, but they were suddenly broken, as if a pool of ink was suddenly splashed on a good painting.
Lin Li knew that the blank place was the top of the Blackstone Mountains. Moreover, the reason why there was a blank spot on this map was not because the person who drew the map did not draw it, but because someone forcibly added it on the map for special reasons.
That area was erased.
Lin Li dared to bet with his head that there must be a strong man in the Marfa family who had climbed to the top of the Blackstone Mountains!
Having fought to the death with the crimson python and having barbecue with Tutankhamun, Lin Li knew better than many people how dangerous the Blackstone Mountains was. Lin Li even believed that even his mentor Andu
Because of his personal visit, he may not even be able to climb to the top of the Blackstone Mountains. If luck is put aside, this map-drawing expert is probably a bit more powerful than Anduin...
There was another thing that Lin Li found strange.
This map has everything on it, but it only misses the crimson python's lair...
"This is so strange..." This question has been bothering Lin Li for a long time. Logically speaking, a map with even mineral veins and herbs marked in detail cannot miss the crimson python's lair. No matter what, deep
The Red Python is also a legendary Warcraft. How could this strong man who drew the map be so careless? Isn't he afraid that one day a member of the Marfa family holding this map would stupidly break into the Crimson Python?
's lair?
Besides, this time the Marfa family is targeting the Crimson Python. How will this map, which only lacks the Crimson Python, help their actions?
However, regarding the Mark of Death, the map does give quite detailed notes. According to the description on the map, it is simply a hell-like place. In addition to various crazy monsters, there are even some undead creatures.
, so that the more Lin Li thought about it, the more strange he became, where did the Marfa family get the confidence to actually want to cross the hell-like Scar of Death with a group of more than ten level adventurers? Could it be that Emmendas has something else on his hands?
Can’t a powerful follow-up move work?
"Uyfalusi, don't let the evil spirit sleep tonight, and continue to monitor Granger. I always feel that the Marfa family is going to do something big..." Lin Li thought for a long time with the map, but he didn't
I came up with a reason, and finally gave such an order. I couldn't figure it out anyway, so I just tried my luck. This Granger seemed to be very important, so he asked Uyfalusi to continue to monitor him, saying
Maybe I can really hear some secrets...
"Okay, Master."
"Hey, those mice are here..." At this moment, a few black shadows suddenly flashed across the field of vision of the wizard's eyes, and a smile suddenly appeared on Lin Li's face. It seemed that this Hahn really didn't care.
I don’t want to give up on killing it myself...
"Master, do you want me to take action?"
"No." Lin Li shook his head. Uyfalusi took action. Most of these people would be turned into skeleton warriors. It would not be fun if it caused a sensation. After thinking about it, Lin Li took it out of his pocket again.
That oil lamp.
"Holy shit, there's only half of it left?" Lin Li glanced at the magic crystal inlaid on the oil lamp, and immediately felt a burst of physical pain. It was the level 15 that he had just changed into when he left the Tower of Dusk.
The magic crystal has only been summoned twice, and only a little more than half is left. Damn, this thing left by Osric is really not affordable for ordinary people...
Lin Li gritted his teeth, endured the pain in his chest, and rubbed the surface of the oil lamp again.
Then, a black smoke filled the entire tent...
……………
Almost at the same time, the four thieves also stopped.
"Marco, you take people in, and I'll help you look out outside. Remember, except for the youngest magician, no one else can move, especially the woman. By the way, you do it.
It’s best to be clean and don’t make any noise when you are there, otherwise you might get into trouble if someone overhears you.”
"Don't worry, brother Reggie, we're just a few low-level adventurers. How much time can it take? Just wait here for my good news. I'll be back soon."
When he said this, Marco looked playful and smiled, obviously not taking Reggie's advice to heart. If it were any other time, Reggie, the most critical among the four, would probably say a few words to him again, but this time
, Reggie didn't say anything, just nodded: "Yeah."
In fact, even Reggie felt that there was really nothing to worry about with a few level 10 adventurers. With Marco's level 15 strength, he could easily defeat more than ten of them as long as he didn't make any big mistakes.
Marco and his two companions disappeared from the night in the blink of an eye.
Reggie found a place with leeward wind, and while monitoring the quiet camp, he waited for news of Reggie and the others taking action. They waited for more than half an hour...
As he waited, Reggie felt a little uneasy. Although he didn't think that several level 10 adventurers could bring any trouble to Marco and the others, it was true that he had waited for so long: "Marco and the others,
You shouldn't run into any trouble..."
Reggie glanced at the quiet camp, finally gritted his teeth, blended his body into the night, and slowly walked towards the tent...
Then, Reggie heard a voice that made his hair stand on end.
