The mage arrives

"Our forward route this time is still the same. After entering from the east gate, pass through the market area, and then bypass here, here, and here..." Ronald took out a map and explained it to everyone.

The area he pointed to on the map was painted in pitch black, which indicated that those areas were the crash points of the flying warships of the Netherdulan Empire back then, and they were also the areas with the thickest ominous fog.There are also some orange-red areas, where the fierce fog will spread and cover regularly, and haunt various filthy creatures.During your adventure, you should also try to avoid entering these areas.

After several previous adventures, the known safe zone marked green on the map is the main route this time.Ronald's ultimate goal is to reach the center of the Danzig ruins, the former residence of the Sun Elf nobles.There, there must be many treasures that have been silent for thousands of years, waiting for adventurers to discover them.

When the "Lucky Coin" team ventured into the Danzig Ruins several times before, although they did not reach the destination in the end, they also collected a lot of information and accumulated enough experience.The safe route recorded on the map alone is of great value.

After explaining the route, Ronald carefully put away the map and put it in his pocket. This map is definitely a priceless treasure for adventurers entering the Danzig ruins, and it is easy to arouse the greed of others.

The moment he stepped into the east gate and into the Danzig ruins, Gordon felt a depressive force enveloping him, as if he had entered another world.He knew that this was the effect caused by the diffusion of violent magic energy in the fierce fog.The deeper the person communicates with the magic net, the easier it is to be disturbed by this power.

Fortunately, although Gordon could touch the magic net during meditation, he did not rely on the magic net to cast spells. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, it still had no substantial impact on his spellcasting ability.

It was not just the Lucky Coin team that entered the Danze Ruins from the east gate, but everyone tacitly chose a different path to advance.

The halfling wanderer "Sour Pear" opened the way more than 20 meters away. Ronald held a spear and walked in the front of the team. The flanks were the dwarf Grago and the priest Cynthia. They all held shields and could well protect the The two spellcasters in the center - Gordon and Gregor the Bard.The sharp-eyed ranger Sera dragged at the end, and if there was a follower with malicious intentions, she would be able to spot it immediately.

From such a proficient and well-configured formation, it can be seen that the adventure experience of the "Lucky Coin" team is very rich.Gordon felt lucky to be able to join this team.Everything is perfect except that the bard's attitude towards him is neither salty nor weak.

The outskirts of the Danzig ruins near the city wall have already been explored by adventurers for hundreds of years. Relatively speaking, it is a very safe area, and of course there is nothing to fish for.So Gordon has the leisure to enjoy the scenery in the ruins.

They were walking on a straight road, and the old building on the left was covered with green vines and various weeds. Occasionally, the wind blew, and the branches and leaves swayed, sending the grass into the tip of the nose.The green plants and ruined walls form a slightly bleak but historical picture.

Gordon couldn't help sighing, when the city was still in its heyday, what kind of city would the Japanese elves, who were the best in architectural technology and art in the mainland, build?

However, if the street buildings on the left are a beautiful historical landscape painting, the scene on the right is a bit weird.Gordon saw that the original gray and white exterior wall of the building was stained with a layer of blood-like red.The vines climbing and winding on the outer wall unexpectedly revealed the same color as the wall.Gordon noticed that there were tumorous growths growing here and there on those vines, which reminded him of the mutant wolf.

"These are all caused by the fierce fog." Cynthia explained to him, as if sensing Gordon's sight.

"I see. There is such a completely different scene across the street. The Danzi ruins are really strange."

"There are so many things you haven't seen, be prepared, mage." The bard's voice came from behind.

Gordon was too lazy to share his knowledge. Although it was his first time to visit the Danzig ruins, the adventure he experienced in "The Ancient Era" was definitely beyond the reach of the "Lucky Coin" team.

But the mage didn't mention the bravery back then.Although the knowledge and experience in the game are of great help to him, they cannot be completely relied upon.

"Damn it!" Captain Ronald, who was at the front of the team, suddenly cursed.

"What's the matter?" Gordon thought that something unexpected happened, but he found that the people around him, whether it was the dwarf Grago or Cynthia, were used to it, showing a look of wanting to laugh.

"If I had a bow and arrow, I would definitely shoot that damned dodo and roast it!" Ronald waved his fist into the sky.On his shoulder armor, there is a puddle of yellow-brown liquid—it should be the excrement left by the bird just now.

"Walking on the road, you can be hit by bird droppings from the sky. It seems that Captain Ronald's luck is not very good today." Gordon laughed.

"Shh..." Cynthia raised her index finger, gestured on her lips, and whispered to Gordon, "Don't let the captain hear what you just said, otherwise he will be angry, ha ha."

Cynthia, who was as quiet as a clear spring in the forest, couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering when she mentioned Ronald's anecdote: "Our Captain Ronald has a nickname in the mercenary world, called 'Bad Luck' Gun'. It is said that since he was eight years old when he learned spear skills, he has been unlucky one after another. The snacks hidden in the cabinet were stolen by mice, and the footwashing water on the second floor facing the street was poured on the street. The cheese is all expired products with maggots, and such little bad luck, like a dark cloud, hangs over Captain Ronald almost all the time."

"Even if Ronald believes in Tymora, the goddess of fortune, his situation has not changed." The dwarf who didn't talk much also interjected.

"It's just such an unlucky guy, you guys hang out with him, aren't you afraid of being infected by bad luck?"

Gordon hesitated, but still did not speak out what was in his heart.

"However, although the captain usually suffers from bad luck, he can always save the whole team at critical moments during battles. That's why we all follow him willingly," Cynthia said.

After chatting about Ronald for a while, the rogue Sour Pear, who was scouting ahead of the team, suddenly sent a message.

"Find an injured adventurer ahead."

A group of people followed the direction guided by the sour pear and came to a ruin full of broken stone pillars.

A woman was half lying on the cold ground. She looked good, but unfortunately, her long chestnut hair was covered with dust, and her armor was torn.On the exposed skin, there were several wounds that were oozing blood, and the whole person looked in a state of embarrassment.

"Kara? Tymora, what happened to you?" Ronald walked up to the woman in two or three steps, his expression a bit ugly.

Obviously, this woman knew Ronald, otherwise Sour Pear would not have informed everyone.

"Hey, Ronald, your face is still so ugly." The woman named Carla smiled weakly.

"Hee hee, Mr. Mage, let me tell you, Sister Kara and the captain are old acquaintances. In the last adventure in the Danzig ruins, our 'Lucky Coin' teamed up with Sister Kara's team of 'Falcon of the Wind'. After returning to Ashes Town, I heard that Sister Kara would go to the captain's house every night..." Ranger Sera came up and said gossipingly.

But before she finished speaking, Cynthia covered her little mouth: "Children pay attention to these things all day long, are you ashamed?"

"He is no longer a child, at least somewhere bigger than sister Cynthia." Sera pouted and whispered.

Cynthia looked at her chest and couldn't help but be speechless.

The conversation between the two girls almost made Gordon laugh out loud.He looked around, an amber gleam in his eyes, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"We were besieged by a large number of filthy creatures in the temple area. All the team members died in battle, and I was the only one who escaped..." Kara told her experience in the ruins, her face full of sadness.

Ronald looked dignified, and seemed to empathize with what happened to her: "At least you survived, Kara. We adventurers are gambling with our own lives as chips, so you should look away."

"Yeah, at least I survived." Kara forced a smile, "Can you help me up?"

Ronald nodded, put his arms around Kara's waist, and just stood up when he suddenly heard the bard exclaim: "Freeman, what are you doing!"

He turned his head and saw that Gordon was holding a white bone magic wand and shooting Ma Youfu's acid arrows in three different directions.But there are no enemies around, what is this mage doing?

Just as this question flashed through his mind, Ronald suddenly caught a glimpse of a chill piercing towards him out of the corner of his eye.

"Kara, you..." He didn't expect that Kara, who had a deep relationship with him, would suddenly attack him. While the two of them were close together, he took out a dagger from behind and aimed it at his chest.

Just after Gordon shot the acid arrow, there was only half a second between, and there was a sudden shout of despair from around: "Damn it, I was found, give it to me... ah!"

Before the words fell, there was a scream.The place where Gordon's acid arrow shot was originally empty, suddenly exploded out of thin air, acid splashed, and screams rang out one after another.

Three corpses wearing black robes and holding crossbows quickly appeared in front of everyone. The leather armor on their chests was corroded by acid to form a large hole, and together with the flesh and internal organs inside, they were dissolved into a black liquid.
