The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 316
  The two fallen paladins were quite skilled in their skills. Although they did not have the strength of a high-level peak, as unconventional advanced people with a lot of magical spell-casting abilities, they were indeed difficult to deal with.

However, facing four high-level peak professionals, Allen and Alba, the career mix is ​​very reasonable. No matter how hard they struggle, they can't escape from Allen's grasp.

In the end, with no choice, the two determined guys suddenly turned their weapons to attack each other. Their eyes were full of death, but they were determined to die.

"Humph, that's a nice thought!!"

Richard had long noticed that something was wrong in the other person's eyes, and he hit him directly with a weak-minded spell that he had prepared for a long time. At the same time, the staff in his hand kept drawing mysterious pictures in the air, and he kept chanting spells and spells. A spell that charms humans follows the retarded book and is aimed at the same target.

The fallen paladin who was regarded as the target saw that the weapon in his hand was about to hit his companion's neck, which did not have strong protection. Although his willpower was strong enough, he was not affected too much by Richard's mental retardation technique.

But during this brief moment of confusion, the spell that followed to enchant humans came straight to his mind, causing his movements to slow down. Then Alba hit him in the waist and abdomen with a spear, and he flew around with a skillful move. He stood up, although he did not avoid the fatal sword attack that his companion was almost certain to hit, but at least it did not hit the vital point. At the same time, his heavy slash also hit his companion's armor.

The weapons of both sides left deep marks on each other's heavy armor, and then they were separated by Allen and Alba.

What happened next was even easier. The charmed human being was disarmed directly in front of Alba. He was even worried that the other person wanted to die. Alba even skillfully separated his limbs, causing them to become dislocated. state.

Allen no longer had any scruples at this time, and the bone cutter swung vigorously, suppressing the target with power, leaving a deeper sword mark on the opponent's heavy armor. When Albian rushed back dragging the body of an assassination demon, he happened to catch up with Allen's angry slash, splitting a pair of great armor into pieces, and at the same time, a thick thigh of the opponent flew up.

"boom!!"

The last fallen paladin was in a coma, and was struck horizontally on the back of the head by Allen's sword. I don't know if he was hit with a concussion, but he fell to the ground honestly and could not get up again.

"The rest will be left to you."

Kaiya looked at the two middle-aged human men on the ground who were reawakened and restrained on the ground. There was occasionally a crazy killing intent in their eyes, but their faces seemed to have been scalded by fire and water, and their entire faces melted away. The purpose of looking is to conceal the other person’s true identity.

Although Richard and the others were controlled, Albian rubbed his hands and began to gesture with the dagger excitedly. He was going to use the dagger he had learned from Allen. The Lingchi method was used on these two great materials.

"Take this aside first, we will interrogate it later."

Richard pointed to the intact prisoner on the ground, said to Kaiya and Alba, and then turned to stare at another human prisoner who had lost an arm with Allen.

"Richard, do you have any drugs or spells on you that can enhance your sensory sensitivity?"

After removing all the clothes on the human body and revealing his bronze body, Albian raised his head and suddenly asked.

"..."

The subsequent sentence was too bloody, even though Kaiya, who had experienced it once in a distance, couldn't help but turn around, cover her eyes and ears and stop visiting Allen and his friends.

Only Alan and Richard looked normal, unaware of how cruel this was, until the other party saw that his remaining arm and two thighs had no flesh and blood attached to the skeleton, and finally almost ran away He confided all the inside stories he knew to Allen and the others, and all he wanted was for Albian to give him a good time.

The cruel method was not only used on this unlucky guy, but also on another human prisoner. After knocking the first human prisoner unconscious against a tree trunk, Allen and the others pulled in the third one. The two were left alive, and then let the other party look at the miserable condition of the previous victim. While Albian was scraping the bones and cutting the flesh, he also said all kinds of terrifying words in a calm tone. In the end, no matter how strong a man it was, There is no way to escape such a miserable punishment.

Of course, this is also thanks to the drug that Richard poured into the other person's mouth, which improved the other person's senses to a higher level. He could peel off a piece of flesh and blood as thin as a cicada on his body like a knife, and the torture was so intense that even humans can feel it. The pain, despair and other emotions were also infinitely amplified under the stimulation of drugs, complementing Albian's Lingchi interrogation.

In contrast, even if the two dead men wanted to conceal any important clues, they were interrogated by Allen and the others one by one without comparing their confessions with each other.

"...It seems that the assassination of these evil god believers is not aimless. Their assassination target is for the next move."

"It's a pity that these two paladins don't know much. They just follow the arrangements of Alva, the evil priest, but don't know the specific content of the next move."

"However, we still gained something, that is, who is the Lord of the Abyss that Alva and his group of believers believe in."

Richard frowned. If Alva was still alive, the intelligence they could collect would be more and more useful. However, as the other party was accidentally shot to death by Kaiya, the information revealed by these two survivors now only verified some of his conjectures for Richard.

Allen was holding a dagger and stabbed one of the two human beings in the heart after being tortured to the point of collapse, freeing them completely.

"who is it?"

Allen didn't know much about the Abyss. If it hadn't been for this evil god's chaos, he might have thought that demons and demons were just legendary creatures.

"The powerful abyss lord who rules the three planes of the endless abyss—Graz'zt, Lord of Darkness."

Richard's eyes were solemn. Just saying the name of this abyss lord made him feel as if he was being stared at by a gaze from the stars. This feeling slowly dissipated after a long time.

"He is one of the most powerful lords in the abyss, and he is also the one who covets Feynman's world the most. Tens of thousands of years ago, he wanted to pull Feynman's world into the endless abyss and become the one he rules. The fourth abyssal plane.”

"........."

Allen stretched out his ears and listened carefully to Richard's statement, and kept these contents firmly in his mind. With the emergence of the chaos of evil gods and the tide of demons, he was shocked to realize that there were too many things he needed to know.

"No matter how many of them there are! If something happens, the strong men of the wilderness will naturally come forward. The chief priests of the Nature Temple will not let these guys cause damage to the wilderness again. We only need to hand over the heads of these guys. City Shoufu, wouldn’t it be nice to get the reward that belongs to us?”

Kaiya was a little impatient. The reward of this task was not bad, but the time wasted was not small. The five of them ran half of the wilderness to track each other and spent more than two months. Alba and Allen Although the scars on their bodies at this time did not affect their combat effectiveness, they still had to rest for a while.

Now that he has finally completed the task, Richard is still frowning, as if he is dissatisfied, but in Kaiya's opinion, completing the task is the most worthy of celebration. As for other matters such as the purpose of the assassination by this group of evil god believers and the conspiracy behind the assassination, they are not issues that adventurers like them should worry about.

"Hey hey hey!"

Alba smiled naively, and nodded slightly under Kaiya's gaze, supporting this companion who had been with him for many years.

"Okay, let's not think too much. Let's think about how to distribute everyone's loot and rewards after handing in the mission!"

The mission reward is two crystal inheritances, or two high-level weapons, plus the trophies, demon heads, and materials obtained from the battles along the way. How to distribute them among the five people is indeed a problem.

"I can give up the distribution of the spoils, but I hope to get one of the inheritance crystals. If there is a difference, I am willing to pay the difference with gems."

Allen first expressed his attitude. He was willing to cooperate with Kaiya and the others to accept this task. One of the reasons was that the reward for this task was inheritance crystals, which was exactly what Allen needed to collect.

"Okay, no problem. Does anyone else have any requests?"

Kaiya and Richard looked at each other, neither of them had any objections, and finally nodded, agreeing to Allen's request.

"Hurry up, follow me and find those bastards who assassinated the patriarch. I will dig out its heart and pay tribute to the patriarch..."

While Allen and the others were still discussing, a commotion gradually came from the distance, as well as the sound of countless flying feet. After Allen and the other five glanced at each other, they quickly stood up and started running towards the north without looking back.

A month and a half later, outside Mansha City, five dusty figures appeared in front of the south city gate and were blocked by a dog-headed tax collector.

As he raised his head, Allen's flat bear nose and face covered with down appeared in front of everyone's eyes. His python scale armor was now in tatters, and his exposed skin was still full of scratches of varying shades. scars.

Behind him, Kaiya and the others also looked tired and had scars all over their bodies, because the news that they had killed Alva was somehow leaked out. Then there was the unwilling guy, the adventure team, who suddenly started chasing them, forcing Allen and Kaiya to speed up their pace and rush back to Mansha City from the nearest route in the wilderness.

This is the adventure rule of the wilderness. Even if one team completes the task, as long as they do not bring the proof of the task back to Mansha City and complete the task, other competitors will still have the opportunity to steal it from the other party. Return mission proof.

As for the means and methods used, there is no need to say more. Anyway, except for Mansha City, which has some rules in the wilderness, other places rely on fists to speak. After all, with a mission worth two inheritance crystals, perhaps only those who are legendary or above will not be tempted.

"This is what we all gained this time. Please check and see if there is anything missing."

As someone who has stayed in Mansha City for nearly 20 years, Kaiya naturally has a comfortable place that belongs to her. After all, women are naturally insecure, so they care more about a fixed residence.

At this time, Allen and the other five gathered in Kaiya's residence, which was a relatively intact courtyard in the slums. In the west wing of the courtyard lived the real owner of the courtyard, a family of six dwarfs, Kaiya. Then I spent money to rent two rooms in the east wing.

Everyone leaned against the door. The cleared living room inside the door was filled with all kinds of trophies, as well as more than twenty demon heads that were sealed in ice and exuded a faint rancid smell.

Of course, there is also a large head of obsidian material, which was not taken out by Allen and the others due to limited space. But even so, in Kaiya's not spacious living room, the trophies were piled nearly one meter high. Several people looked at the room full of trophies with a bit more satisfaction in their eyes.

Allen held two inheritance crystals in his hands and made a difficult choice. It was really difficult to decide which crystal was better.

After everyone discussed together, they finally chose crystals as a reward between crystals and magic equipment. Magic equipment fluctuates too much. Perhaps in the eyes of some people, a certain piece of magic equipment is most suitable for their own use and will be given a higher price. However, in the eyes of most people, the spells and effects attached to these equipment are just useless. , so magic equipment fluctuates greatly, unlike inheritance crystals, which have a stable price.

Two crystals, one is the Druid advanced natural healer crystal inheritance, and the other is the Warlock ordinary advanced Warlock crystal inheritance. Each one is for Allen who has always hoped to have a spellcaster inheritance in his family. Words are a huge temptation, and this is something he is still struggling with.

"Alan, if you really decide to choose the inheritance crystal, then you will probably have to prepare funds in advance. Even excluding your share of remuneration, you will probably have to subsidize about 2000 gold coins."

Two extraordinary combat inheritance crystals are worth at least 7000 gold coins on the market. However, in the past year or so, because the Temple of Nature and Mansha City Guardian have been issuing crystal-related tasks, the price of inheritance crystals has been reduced. , but the two crystals in Allen's hand probably have to be valued at more than gold coins to be considered reasonable. This is because teammates like Richard and Kaiya do not compete with Allen, otherwise the price may increase.

"kindness!"

Allen nodded heavily. At this time, he had 15 raw rubies given to him in the previous mission, which were worth almost 1500 gold coins. Plus the funds he brought from his clan, it should be enough to exchange for this crystal.

Finally, through Kaiya's channels, after everyone cleared out the materials and loot in this room, the money in exchange was nearly 2 gold coins. Among them, Alva, the battle priest, accounted for most of the magic equipment. The other two fallen paladins also contributed nearly 3000 gold coins. The assassination demon, the human archer, and the unlucky Roble tribe leader Frank contributed almost the same amount. 4000 gold coins, and the rest comes from the sale of obsidian, demon heads and other materials.

When Alba heard this number, his whole eyes were shining. He imagined how long this would allow him to eat and drink, and a trace of saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth. Albian and Kaiya's eyes were equally excited. If the valuations of the two inheritance crystals were added, then none of the five of them would be able to get at least 5 gold coins.

No wonder so many adventurers flock to such a mission with such rich rewards, and even after Allen and the others have completed their mission, they still pursue them relentlessly. If it were Allen himself, if he knew that a certain team had such huge wealth, he might not be able to guarantee not to hunt down the opponent.

Of course, as the leader of the Green Field Tribe, Allen has never had such a large amount of income over the years, but there has never been less than 2-3000 gold coins worth of wealth in the tribe's account books. Therefore, Allen did not suffer from his sudden appearance. The wealth of these 200 rubies has changed a lot.

As for Richard, as a profession that consumes the most money, although these wealth are attractive, compared with his own net worth, they may not really impress the other party. You know, Richard's palm-sized dimensional bag alone is an expensive magic item worth 10,000 gold coins, not to mention the various priceless spellcasting materials in the dimensional bag.

"On this mission, we all cooperated with each other tacitly, and we didn't say who made the greater contribution. Except for subsidizing Richard's 200 gold coins for casting materials, we all shared the rest equally. Do you have any opinions?"

This mission did go smoothly. Although everyone wasted some time searching for the whereabouts of Alva and his gang, the subsequent process was not too troublesome.

"Okay, I have no objection."

"Okay, let's do that."

Even Richard, who made the plans himself and correctly judged Alva's final assassination target, had no objections. Naturally, the others had nothing to say.

Whether members of a team can cooperate again depends on their cooperation during the task, as well as the distribution after the task is completed, whether there are disharmonious factors, etc. Now it seems that the partnership between Kaiya and Richard this time may become an opportunity for the next cooperation.

After the distribution, Allen received a crystal inheritance from a warlock, but cruelly gave up the crystal inheritance from a natural healer. Finally, after giving everyone 3 rubies as a subsidy, he pocketed the warlock's crystal.

The reason why he chose a warlock instead of a natural healer with a druid boy was that Allen's plan was simple.

First of all, the boy Linus chose to take the path of Druid of the Claw. Even if Allen uses the power of the patriarch to force Linus to choose a natural healer again, I am afraid that even if Linus finally bows his head, it will make him never From now on, along with the Druid, it has stagnated.

Secondly, the relationship between the Green Field Tribe and the Oak Temple has always been harmonious. Even if Allen does not have the crystal inheritance of the Druid, he can still use the relationship between Master Oscar and Priest Clay to bring the children of the tribe with Druid talents to It's just a little more troublesome to send them to schools and monasteries affiliated with the temple to study.

But after missing this opportunity to advance to the sorcerer profession of warlock, I'm afraid it will be very slim for Allen to get such a crystal again.

Although warlocks are also spellcasters, they are different from spellcasters such as mages and druids. They have a high chance of awakening naturally like those with shadow energy talents. For example, the Bone Crusher who made Allen hate him was a naturally awakened warlock. Later, his level improvement, spellcasting understanding, etc. were all developed step by step through his own exploration.

If Bonecrusher could have had a Dragon Vein Warlock's crystal inheritance back then, I'm afraid his original level wouldn't have been stuck at the mid-level. In that case, even if Allen can kill the Bonebreaker in the end, his life will be replaced by the Bonebreaker's method of killing both stone and stone.

In the end, Allen no longer exists.

Therefore, after long consideration and constant struggle, Allen decisively chose the crystal inheritance of the warlock. He only hoped that one day the children in the clan would be able to compete with each other and give birth to a gifted warlock.

The remaining crystal was pocketed by Richard. Both Albian and Kaiya were loners, and their pursuit of crystal inheritance outside their profession was not strong. Alba himself comes from a rich family, and there is no shortage of inheritance crystals in the family. Naturally, he personally does not need this thing, so it was finally collected by Richard.

"What are your plans next?"

After the mission came to an end, Kaiya gently caressed the bulging money bag at her waist, which contained more than 60 rubies, and then asked several temporary partners around her who were also satisfied.

"Hehehe, I want to have a few good meals. I haven't had enough food these days in the wilderness."

Alba's eyes were wandering, and then he imagined the happy days ahead, and his face lit up.

"I'm going to take a break for a while and see if there are any other suitable tasks."

Albian had just completed a task, and now he was already preparing for the next task. He was not at all like the indifferent character that an elf should have.

Allen shrugged and said nonchalantly: "I'm going to see if the young men in the tribe are back first. If not, I'm going to go to their mission location to see what's going on."

After returning to Mansha City, Allen resumed his responsibilities as a tribal leader and began to worry about the safety of young goblins like Kerr.

Kerr and the others accepted a cleanup mission, rented a place in the monastery, and left a letter to Allen. It had been more than a month since they left Mansha City on their mission, and they had not returned yet. So Allen had the idea of ​​​​wanting to take a look and secretly observe their actions.

"Oh, it seems that everyone is busy with their own things!!"

Kaiya felt a little regretful, but this emotion quickly dissipated. She now also thought about taking a hot bath and then taking a long beauty sleep.

"Then if there is a suitable mission next time, let's act together, right?"

Just when everyone was about to leave and do their own thing, Kaiya suddenly asked again, looking at Allen and the others with a hopeful look in her eyes, and then received a hearty nod from Allen and Albian.

"Okay!! It's settled then!!"

"I will be responsible for contacting everyone then."

"OK."

"no problem."
