Unscrupulous profiteer

Chapter 24 The 1st Journey to Another World ③ First Encounter with the Mercenary Group

() Zheng Jing is very lucky, at least this group of people who seem to be mercenaries are quite rational, and Zheng Jing's hard-pressed look of being collapsed in the cave and unable to stand up no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem to do them any good Bad intentions, after a brief discussion, they quickly regarded Zheng Jing as a troubled son who was unfortunately caught by a monster.

Although it was still a misunderstanding, at least this misunderstanding would not kill him.

A group of people led Zheng Jing on the way down the mountain. Zheng Jing was carried on the back of Brother Heichao. On the surface, he was resting, but in fact he secretly asked the terminal to open the communication with Xuan Qing.

"Old man, I didn't offend you? Are you hurting me so much?" Zheng Jing lowered his voice to avoid being heard by the people around him, but he didn't give Xuan Qing a good tone.

"Huh? Little guy, where did you say that? Why did I want to kill you, old man?"

Seeing that Xuan Qing didn't understand, Zheng Jing told Xuan Qing everything that happened after he was teleported here.

"Hahahaha." Xuanqing laughed heartily before Zheng Jing finished speaking, but this time the laughter was a bit gloating, seeing Zheng Jing's face darken quickly, he quickly explained: "Sorry, this I was negligent this time, Tuqiai gave you the lowest-level teleporter, although it randomly selects a location in an area to teleport, but I didn't expect you to be so unlucky, hahahaha!"

To be honest, Zheng Jing was really scared this time, and said with lingering fear: "This place is too dangerous. I didn't expect such a world to exist in this universe."

Xuan Qing restrained his smile, and looked at Zheng Jing with strange eyes: "Do you think that little bird is very powerful?"

Little... little bird?Thinking of the Fire Skylark, which was bigger than his house and full of domineering flames, Zheng Jing twitched the corner of his mouth, and said bitterly: "Isn't it powerful?"

"The Dragon God Continent where you are now is only a relatively low-level world dominated by magic civilization. The Fire Skylark you met is only a middle-level fifth-level monster in that world. Even with the modern weapons of your earth, it can easily kill."

Zheng Jing opened his mouth and said nothing. Originally, he was very surprised to see that there are monsters like Fire Skylark in the universe, but he didn't expect that such a powerful Fire Skylark is not a boss. Even Jing British monsters are not even counted.

I have alchemy, Seven Star Sword, and Brother Heichao's help, but it is still so difficult to deal with this little monster, so what?A slag with a combat power of 5.5?

"Wait, someone is coming, let's talk about it later." Zheng Jing suddenly noticed that the green-robed archer who had aimed at him with an arrow moved towards him, cut off the communication quickly, and put his head on Brother Heichao's back to pretend He looks like he is resting quietly.

At this moment, the petite archer had already pulled down the hood of his robe. It turned out to be a girl with a beautiful shawl and blond hair, but she was very unhappy when she saw Zheng Jing.

"Hey, why is your guard dressed so strangely?"

Zheng Jing had turned on the translation function on the terminal, but he could only smile wryly when he heard what this girl said.Looking down at his tattered appearance, his favorite T-shirt with the image of Miku had been burned to ashes by the Fire Skylark during the battle, but it saved him a lot in the current situation. It's troublesome to explain, but my brother Heichao, obviously, his cool appearance will become the focus of others no matter on the earth or here.

"Uh...Actually, we came from a far away place in the east, and our guards there are all dressed like this."

The girl's pale blue eyes were filled with suspicion, and she said, "No, my hometown is in the easternmost part of the mainland, and there is no such person there."

Well, it seems that the general explanation in this fantasy novel does not work here. Zheng Jing struggled for a long time, and really didn't know how to answer.

"Hmph, you bastard is full of lies, and the guards you bring are so fierce, you must not be a good person."

Zheng Jing was not happy, and immediately waved his fists to protest: "I don't care about good people and bad people, but why am I such a softie? Believe it or not, when I recover, it's trivial for you to pick up ten with one hand!"

"One more thing, big talker!" Nina stretched out a little finger and gently pushed Zheng Jing's fist back. Zheng Jing, who was paralyzed and unable to move, was carried out of the cave by her back. Now she has to be carried down the mountain, and the image of frailty has long been deeply burned in her mind.

"Okay, let's talk about something else, um... Where did you come from? Do you have any contact information with your relatives and friends? They will definitely be worried if you come to a dangerous place like Chiyan Mountain? "

"Oh?" Zheng Jing was stunned for a moment: "Why do you suddenly care about this kindly? You were so mean just now, and the change is too fast?"

Nina raised her head triumphantly: "Since you go out with guards, you must be from a rich family. If we send you home, we can justifiably ask your family for a bounty. A nice extra income, hehe."

Zheng Jing was speechless, but considering that these guys were mercenaries, it was not incomprehensible, but suddenly, he noticed Nina's hand, and found that this girl had been playing with a beautiful red coin from the beginning until now. spar.

"What are you holding in your hand?"

"This?" Nina raised her hand and glanced at the spar, which is more beautiful than gems, and said, "This is the magic core of the Fire Skylark. Our mercenary group's task this time is to find this thing."

Suddenly, she withdrew her hand holding the magic core back into her bosom, opened her eyes and looked at Zheng Jing vigilantly: "The magic core of a level 5 monster is very precious, don't blame me if you dare to think badly about it." You're welcome."

"Damn!" Zheng Jing was fine at first, but when he heard this, he suddenly became anxious. Why did I have a bad idea to hit the magic core? It was clearly my buddy who seriously injured that stinky bird. You just came to make up for it. okay?I didn't ask you for it because I didn't know what the magic core was for. You should thank me, right?

Under the eaves, Zheng Jing didn't dare to turn against the entire mercenary group, but he didn't show anything on the surface, but he laughed badly in his heart. Don't forget what he does, how much this group of people owe him , within two days, they are guaranteed to spit them all out.

On the other side, the few people walking at the front of the line were talking.

The person wearing a set of armor with magic patterns and a two-handed sword on his back is the leader of this small mercenary group, Eric. He is also the oldest in the mercenary group, and the person standing in front of him The three of them were the armored warrior who had previously fought against Fire Skylark, and the two lightly equipped swordsmen and dagger users.

"Ah Lei, tell me now, how did the operation go so smoothly this time? The Fire Skylark is not so easy to deal with."

The armored warrior Alei took off his helmet and looked like a young man. Hearing the leader's question, he waved his hand casually and said carelessly: "Hey, after this luck, you know where we are this time, leader." The young man rescued from the monster's lair, when we got there, we saw the monster preparing to eat him. We were unprepared, so Nina decisively used the binding arrows we bought before this mission to sneak attack, and the monster couldn't fly It’s easy to deal with, let us clean up within two rounds.”

"Oh? Really?" Alec frowned slightly. With years of travel experience, he knew in his heart that Fire Skylark is not as easy to clean up as it says it is, and even if it seizes the opportunity to sneak attack, it will not be that simple.

"Wes, do you have anything to say?"

Weiss was the swordsman with the one-handed sword. He lowered his head and was thinking about something. When the leader asked him, he raised his head and said, "I feel something is wrong, but I'm not sure if it's right."

"Just say it."

"Well, this task is of great importance. Before we came here, we carefully studied the information of the Fire Skylark and made a lot of preparations based on it. But after this actual fight, to be honest, I feel that this Fire Skylark is better than the description in the information. It's far worse, the flames on it are obviously not as violent as the book says, I don't think we will be afraid of that level of flames even if we don't have fire protection equipment, and according to my observation, the fire skylark is not so much attracted by the attention Going to another place for Nina to sneak attack, it would be better to say that the monster has already discovered our approach, it wanted to avoid Nina's arrow, but it didn't have the strength to fly at that time."

"Wes, is what you said true?" Aleigh also showed a surprised expression when he heard this, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that the fact seemed to be what Wes said.

Captain Eric nodded, and calmly said: "In other words, before you went, the fire lark had already been seriously injured, and there were two other people in the fire lark's lair besides you."

"That's right!" The dagger user on the side immediately echoed: "That big bald man with strange clothes... Oh, that's the guard of that young man. He is very powerful. When that guy rushed over, I and Wei The two of Si were knocked away by him without any resistance, he must have injured the Fire Skylark!"

"Hehe, I don't think so. Don't just look at things on the surface." Eric shook his head slightly and said, "There were two people in the cave at that time, the young man and his guard. It was burnt to pieces, and the whole person was exhausted, the clothes on the other body were intact, and the body was still full of energy, you said, who would it be that really fought against the Fire Skylark and beat it like that?"

Eric didn't point it out directly, but these people all understood, and they couldn't help turning their heads to look at Zheng Jing who was hanging at the end of the team, wanting to take a closer look at the uniqueness of this expert who can defeat the Fire Skylark, but What they saw surprised them.

"I can't stand it! I'm going to die! Why is this mountain so steep? Is it almost straight?" Zheng Jing, who was being carried on the back of Heichao, was yelling and complaining, looking at the ground under his feet, except for a few bumps He couldn't see any curvature in the raised rock, so he could only step on the rock bit by bit. Although he was carried by Brother Heichao, the bumps alone almost tossed him, who was already very weak. fainted.

The members of the mercenary group who saw this scene had black lines all over their heads. No matter how they looked at it, it was just a fool. They would rather believe that this guy was frightened into this by the fire skylark, and they couldn't believe that such a person could fight with the fire skylark. Three hundred rounds of battle.
