Devil's Journey

Chapter 490
The Broken Tooth Mountain area is quite desolate. Before reaching the foot of the mountain, the ground presents a yellowish-brown withered scene. Gray-white stones protrude from the ground like the teeth of wild animals, from sparse to dense, until form continuous mountains.

Persephone wrapped Julian's left arm around her, and held a lance in her right hand. The tall war horse took light steps to catch up with the fleeing goblins. The lance lightly brushed against the necks of the three goblins one after another, and the stench of plasma splashed. fly.

The war horse rushed up cheerfully, and its huge hooves knocked the last two goblins into the air. The skinny goblin flew up, spitting blood, and fell to the ground after spinning for a few weeks, seemingly dead.

Roar!
At this moment, from a large pile of rubble not far away, a sturdy bear goblin with a height of more than two meters suddenly jumped out, roared and waved the mace and wooden shield in his hand, and then rushed towards the horse who was riding too late. The avoiding Persephone.

Persephone, who was only wearing leather armor, secretly thought 'it's not good', she was careless, she only cared about showing off her strength to Julian, but she got carried away with complacency.

Fortunately, Julian, who was leaning in Persephone's arms, shot immediately, a nearly instant slowing spell, directly hitting the goblin bear that rushed over, and then saw the goblin bear failing its saving throw, and immediately became like an old lady. slow.

After reacting, Persephone became a little annoyed, she charged forward with a gun, and pierced the bear goblin's neck with precision.

With the sound of "ho ho", the bear goblin in animal skin armor fell on his back, and some rusty maces and wooden shields fell to the ground.

"Hee hee, our cooperation is awesome!" The image of the calm big sister has changed slightly, as if to adapt to Julian's young age, and Persephone has also become more um, more girlish.

Although it's a little bit out of harmony, it doesn't matter, after all Persephone is a well-known noble beauty in Red River City, so she looks beautiful no matter what.

On the contrary, Julian has never been bothered to pretend to be a child, and has always looked like a little adult. Fortunately, Julian has high charm, good temperament, and can hold back.

Julian raised his eyes to look at the business road winding among the rocks in the distance, then turned his head, and saw Persephone's pretty face was about to be pressed against Julian's.

Raising his eyebrows casually, Julian kissed Persephone's face by the way, and then said: "You'd better put on heavy armor, since battles will inevitably occur after entering the mountain, I'd better ride a pony."

Persephone's face was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks flushed, her eyes became erratic, her heart was beating like a drum, and she managed to suppress the restlessness in her heart, but Persephone felt a little uncomfortable. Willing to let Julian transfer.

But what Julian said is correct, there will definitely be many battles after entering the mountain, not to mention, the main purpose this time is to find her father and the family caravan, and the rest will be discussed after returning.

Afterwards, Persephone hugged Julian and got off the horse, then took out her plate and chain armor and put it on, put on the big helmet with the mask, and even put on the front of the horse with a visor and a chest Armor and neck guard.

At this time, other people who were left behind followed up. After replenishing horses in another town along the way, the group not only had traveling horses for travel, but also had two extra horses to carry travel sundries.

After putting on a docile traveling horse, Ketia returned the wand to Julian. After catching up with him, she jumped off the horse and first carefully checked that Julian was not harmed before casting a sideways glance with dissatisfaction. Persephone.

At this time, Persephone, who also noticed that Ketia was dissatisfied with her, also stared at Ketia tit for tat. As a woman, Persephone quickly understood why Ketia was dissatisfied with herself, and there was nothing The meaning of giving in.

After the two women looked at each other indifferently, they each gave a cold snort, their eyes were staggered, and the friendly atmosphere before was no longer there.

Julian rode on his well-fitting pony horse, ignored the two jealous women, but looked at the halfling Palin who suddenly appeared from stealth not far away.

"It's bad, something happened to the checkpoint in front!" Palin's expression looked serious, which was quite different from his previous optimist expression.

"What's the matter?" It wasn't Julian who answered the question, but the barbarian Hachi who had just caught up with him. Hachi had also been promoted to a level recently. He was in a good mood and had a positive attitude towards the task.

"The orcs in that checkpoint were slaughtered, and the corpses stink!" Palin continued, frowning. "There is a corpse that looks like an orc shaman, but his head was chopped off."

Ever since Persephone hugged Julian and rode together, the half-elf Adlan has been listless. Although he looks handsome and has good strength, he is worse than Julian. much better.

The only advantage is that he is an adult, and Julian, um, at least looks like a child, but he is so strong at such a young age, so he will have to grow up.

Adelan, whose confidence was also severely hit, became a little bit messed up, as if he was doing a task, but he had a negative attitude with no enthusiasm for anything.

And Linda, the female shield, didn't behave as aggressively as the barbarian, but she was worthy of the salary Persephone gave her, and she was considered a hard-working, normal worker with professional ethics.

Pai Lin's optimistic and cheerful personality makes him more proactive. As long as the employer is not too friendly, Pai Lin will work very seriously.

"Then let's go and have a look together." After speaking, Persephone glanced at Julian, and after seeing Julian nod, she took the lead forward.

The orc's checkpoint is blocked on a dangerous and narrow uphill pass, with steep Broken Tooth Mountains on both sides, with jagged rocks, like the spiked backs of evil beasts, and birds pass through the pass, leaving a few clear calls.

The gate of the checkpoint was knocked down, and there were still some scorched marks on the log walls on both sides. An orc who had been shot into a porcupine hung upside down from the watchtower, as if his legs were stuck on the railing of the watchtower.

After Pailin checked that there were no enemies hiding inside, a group of people entered the checkpoint. The broken orc corpses looked disgusting, and there were a few barbecued orc stumps that were suspected to be left over from the bonfire that had been extinguished.

Persephone frowned, and then looked at the corpse nailed to a target inside the checkpoint. It was a skinny old orc corpse with no head. Even the chest and abdomen had been cut open, and the internal organs were taken out. clean up.

The stench filled the checkpoint, and it seemed that these corpses had been dead for many days, just as Julian and his party were guessing who attacked the checkpoint.

Suddenly several crossbows shot at Julian, but before Julian came in, he added a mage armor to himself. After the crossbows were blocked, the adventure team immediately became vigilant.

Several half-orc assassins emerged, looking at Julian and his party with hatred in their eyes: "Outsiders, put down your weapons and surrender, or the bloody warlord will not spare you!"
