Carry the Ring of Elden with you

Then he took his share and sat down with the two mercenaries who were deliberately looking for trouble just now. They ate their own food pretending not to communicate, but in fact they were exchanging information.

It was very unfortunate that the Golden Tree told Roland all this, and the voice reached his ears with the breeze.

"How about it, have the two guys with crossbows tested their strength?" Regias scooped up a piece of stewed bear meat with a spoon, with a thick layer of milky white cream on it.

The mercenary who was pushed back by Robles pouted and did not look at Regias. He pretended to be joking with his companions, but actually replied to Regias: "Boss, the idea is a bit tricky. It must be at least a C-level mercenary. Judging from Bing's strength, the guy next to him who looks similar to him is probably his brother. Together, the two of them can probably take on an A-level mercenary."

"Tsk, this job is really hard to do. I'll have to ask this old guy Marek to pay more later." Regeas cursed without changing his expression.He himself has only just reached C-level, and most of his men are not even D-level mercenaries.Why did he encounter a group of terrifyingly well-equipped soldiers deep in the mountains and forests? The aura they exuded outside the camp just now was something Regeas had never seen even in the private soldiers that the lord spent a lot of money to raise.

A crossbowman has a C rank, not to mention the more terrifying-looking knight commander and two-handed swordsman.

Regias took another bite of the stew and said: "Since the idea is tough, let the brothers use their skills to show their bright spots. Don't make trouble with your hands and mouth. It can be seen that the other side doesn't want to get involved. It's better for us to have more trouble than less. For one thing, after finishing this meal and leaving the camp, I will capture the girl and bring her back to report the situation here. I feel like Marek hasn’t been worried about giving a gift to the lord recently? You guys are looking at this glowing star How about the big tree?"

"Hey, boss, your thoughts are too good to guess. Tell Marek that the gift is a fake, and you want to drive the tiger to devour the wolf and kill these people is the real thing, right?" The mercenary sitting on the other side heard Reggie Yas chuckled at what he said.

Regias shrugged slightly: "The wealth is not exposed. The equipment on these people is very good. And look at what they eat, butter, pepper, salt and even sugar. I said I like to eat sweets." The female chef asked for more sugar, but she didn't take it seriously when she added ingredients to the dish. Damn it, they are just like walking fat sheep. It's just that these fat sheep still have some ability to resist, so they have to be operated slowly."

"I guess a young man from a big city came out to play with a guard, and then he saw this tree and wanted to take it back. I just came in to see this camp. The workmanship and other things are very new. I'm afraid the camp was only set up in the afternoon. ." The mercenary who had made trouble before said lazily, "So they may have just set off for half a day. We have been to the big cities nearby, and we have never seen the kind of armor with the badges of beasts and trees embroidered on it. It means that they The place we came from is far away, at least a week's work."

Regias took over the conversation: "This means that we have time to operate and eat everything on these people. How about, even if we give some to Marek after finishing this job, then it will be I can live happily for a year and a half."

"We're done. We've killed quite a few of those noble young masters and ladies. The sky is high in this place and the emperor is far away. We disguised the corpses as monster attacks. Hey, those nobles came and thanked us for collecting their corpses." The mercenary who laughed at first showed a cruel and obscene smile, asking his companions to point to which girl he was thinking of.

The mercenary who was looking for trouble also joined in: "And there are two people in that group who are better qualified than the girls we caught. We can't touch Elizabeth's two-faced bitch. Marek named her. The remaining two, the first Son, do you think we can sell it to a brothel when we get tired of it?"

Regeas coughed, rolled his eyes, and pretended to choke on his food: "Those two are not the group of noble girls you played with before, especially the red-haired one who danced with the big sword. You are a loser. Save your dirty thoughts. Our main purpose is to steal money and don’t make any mistakes."

"It's easy to talk, don't worry, boss, it won't delay things."

well.After hearing all this, Roland sighed in his heart.

Whether they are these mercenaries or the mercenaries they have encountered before, they are all virtuous.Wouldn’t it be nice to finish your meal honestly, take a nap and leave?That's it, these people are rotten to the core, they are the maned dogs who make a living from this.If you see a good one, you will bite it, regardless of whether a few teeth will be chipped.

Those words just now were not in vain. In addition to some words that polluted my ears, I also heard their opinions about Elizabeth.Sure enough, I was right to be wary of that noble girl.

[New mission has been triggered: destroy all mercenaries.Mission reward: 300 points of ether energy.

As the saying goes, it's not that you don't report that the time has come. This group of mercenaries who like to rob homes and homes finally hit the iron plate.

Although they are not the same group of mercenaries, but... vent your hatred to your heart's content, my host. 】

Roland glanced at the golden tree's ether meter, which was currently (61/404).If you can get these 300 points of ether energy, you can also summon some of Grek's King's Army, and the tree son will not be damaged like during the day.

"Farrugia, I have something to ask you. Come here." Roland quickly finished the food in his bowl and greeted Farrugia, who had been on guard and did not even take off his helmet.

When Farrugia heard this, he walked over, and the weight of his equipment made a muffled sound even on the dirt, attracting the envious eyes of Regias and the others.

He took off his helmet, knelt down on one knee, and asked, "I am willing to serve you. What are your orders?"

"Knight Commander Farrugia, there are a lot of pests in the camp that are targeting this tree. It's time for your team to remove the pests. Remember to clean up when removing the pests, otherwise there will always be little bugs running out to spread the news. Let more bugs come over." Roland glanced at Regias and the others who were not aware of anything yet, and said with a lack of interest.

A good dinner was disgusted by this group of mercenaries.

Farrugia nodded understandingly, especially when he heard that someone had thoughts about the golden tree, his expression became angry for a moment, and then calmed down.

He put his helmet back on and stood up.The broadheaded gun collided with the golden shield three times, making a crisp and violent sound, which also attracted everyone's attention.

Regeas and his mercenaries were a little confused about what was going on with the knight commander. However, Ikosela and others who were very familiar with Captain Farrugia when they acted together on the battlefield understood what Farrugia meant.

Three collisions can only mean one thing: annihilation of the enemy.

They put down their bowls and chopsticks at the same time, put on their helmets, and grabbed their weapons.

Feeling something bad, Elizabeth immediately hid near a thick root under the golden tree, then stuck her head out to observe the development of the situation, and then found that she couldn't help but feel sleepy.

Wellington had already fallen asleep and had not finished eating the food in the bowl. He had no idea what was going on.

When he saw Ikosela and the others holding their weapons, Regias realized that these soldiers wanted to attack him.He cursed and threw the bowl, hoping that his brothers would strike first.

However, his body did not follow the reaction of his brain. He stumbled to the ground and found that his body was very sleepy.With difficulty, he turned his head and realized that the two people he had just been talking to were taking a nap. No wonder he hadn't heard much of their continued conversation just now.

Damn it was poisoned.He bit the tip of his tongue, and the severe pain dissipated a lot of his sleepiness.It doesn't matter, there are still some brothers who didn't eat their food, and the drugs they drank seemed to be hypnotic, not poison that makes people lose their fighting ability.He still had a chance to resist, so why the hell did they suddenly change their mind?

Regius was very puzzled, and then saw the scene of his brothers who had not eaten being slaughtered.

The group of mercenaries who had not eaten dinner were not slow to respond. They each touched their weapons when Regias threw the bowl.

But Farrugia and the others were faster. The two crossbowmen Robles and Amber accurately shot the crossbow arrows into the foreheads of the two mercenaries farthest from them, and these two unlucky guys had just touched themselves. bow and arrow.

The two brothers quickly loaded the next crossbow arrow. This time they did not choose to shoot the attenuated opponent directly. Instead, they shot the crossbow arrow into the knees of the two outermost mercenaries.The sharp crossbow arrows penetrated their leather armor and kneecaps, and the pain made them wail on the ground, losing their ability to fight.

Damn it, I can't resist it.Regias was quite awake at this time, and it seemed that the dose of medicine was not much. He moved desperately and touched his sword. At the same time, he kicked the sleeping mercenary and shouted: "Don't do it." He’s fucking asleep, get up and fight hard. The others will wake up all the sleeping pigs that have been recruited. We have the advantage in numbers, so don’t be afraid.”

As soon as he finished speaking, two crossbow arrows were fired at him. Regeas was so frightened that he shrank his head and blocked one with his sword. Then he felt his ears go cold, and then he felt severe pain.

One of Regias's ears was scratched off by a crossbow arrow, and Robles, who had caused the damage, curled his lips and looked dissatisfied.

"Didn't you promise to entertain us, Roland! Why did you go back on your word!" Regeas grinned in pain and shouted angrily.

Roland didn't want to pay attention to him at all. As more and more mercenaries woke up, they raised their shields.The crossbows of Robles and Amber are also much less effective.However, they had already killed 7 mercenaries, and 2 were still making painful sounds on the ground. The combat effectiveness of the 20 mercenaries was reduced by nearly half. This loss made Regias's heart bleed.

But he didn't want to dwell on it at this time. The most important thing was to survive.

He and the remaining people formed a formation relying on the tents in the camp to avoid possible crossbow arrows.Robles and Amber looked at each other and shrugged.The elder brother put the crossbow arrows back on his back, took out the King's Army straight sword and brass shield from his waist, and prepared to cooperate with his teammates to take down the remaining mercenaries.

Then he saw his brother take out the Thunderbolt Kettle, quickly held it down, and said: "This is the camp. If you throw this thing out, the tent we just made in the afternoon will be gone. The remaining group of people, Captain Farrugia, One person can take care of it, so there’s no need to be in a hurry.”

Amber curled her lips with some dissatisfaction and said: "The way they gather together makes people unable to resist firing a thunder pot. Forget it, brother, listen to you. Don't let me do something wrong again and be punished by the captain."

At this time, two of the mercenaries, holding leather shields in their left hands and short daggers in their right hands, walked out cautiously, trying to pull back the two unlucky guys on the ground who were not dead yet.Don't think that these mercenaries have any friendship, they are just pulling them back as a shield.Just now, in order to avoid the crossbows of Robles and Amber, many mercenaries escaped by using their good brothers as shields.

Even so, many people were injured by crossbow arrows, but fortunately it did not affect their combat effectiveness.

"Ha!" A heroic voice came out, and with a huge movement, Ikosela dragged the sword of the king's army with both hands and rushed here quickly. Her long fiery red hair was floating in the air, like a shooting star, and she headed towards that The two enemies who were out in battle turned around and slashed out. At the same time, Farrugia also raised his broadheaded gun and stabbed hard from across a tent.

The two sword and shield wielders were cut in half by Ikosela, with their shields and their bodies covered with blood and internal organs.Farrugia's broadhead gun also penetrated the wood in front of him and a mercenary huddled behind the tent.

There are only 8 people left. If they were soldiers of normal quality, they would continue to resist.However, this group of people are mercenaries who are greedy for money. Seeing the tragic death of their companions and the extremely powerful dominance of their opponents on the battlefield, some of the mercenaries have already greased their feet and are ready to run away.

Soon, under Roland's care, only Regias was left, and all the other mercenaries had been slaughtered.

At this time, the great sword that Regias was proud of had been broken into two pieces, and it could not even leave a mark on the golden shield.The mercenary leader lay on the ground with a pale face and panting, and his right arm was cut off by Ikosela.

He raised his head with great effort and asked: "Let me understand clearly, why did you do it suddenly?"

Roland sighed again and said with a helpless expression: "Everything you say in this camp can be told to me by that tree. I didn't want to do anything absolutely, but if you set your mind on the golden tree, then I have no choice but to do it." Kill them all."

Regeas laughed miserably and said, "Okay, die without regrets. It's true that I didn't think about it. Do you have any questions for leaving me until the end?"

"Of course, I want to ask you why Marek wants Elizabeth. I feel that woman is not telling the truth." Roland knelt down and asked.

Regias took a few breaths and said: "No... that's right. You are quite vigilant, and that bitch did not tell you the truth. She is Marek's mistress, and because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, Marek Ke found out that she had kept a man outside, so he asked us to take her back."

As expected, Roland said "Oh" and said, "Well, that's pretty good. Anyway, there are basically just a few things among nobles. Okay, I'm done asking, do you have any last words?"

Regeas's breath became weaker and weaker. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and asked: "Who are you? I...I have traveled all over the country and been to many countries, but I have never seen a group of soldiers like them." ···Where are you from?”

"Of course you have never seen it before." Roland smiled, and Farrugia and the others also laughed.

In Regeas's last vision, the gold in Farrugia's pupils continued to attract his remaining consciousness. Behind Roland was a golden tree shining with golden light.

At the moment when his vision completely darkened, his ears heard Roland's hateful words.

"They are the warriors I called to take revenge on you people from another world. As for me, I am the evil ghost you released with your own hands."

Chapter 10: The time for low-key development is over

[The mission is completed, how does it feel to vent your hatred? 】The system asked.

Roland didn't know what kind of expression to show. He replied to the system in his mind: "I don't have any real feelings. I feel more angry about this group of mercenaries. It reminds me of the group of people who repaid kindness with enmity."

[Hahaha, being able to feel angry means that you still have the ability to vent it.If you're not interested in anything, I'd be quite worried about whether you really want to destroy another world. 】

"I'm not a big devil, how could I destroy a planet because of some ungrateful people? Have you made me a little too negative? Every wrong has its own owner, so let's treat those who betrayed me in the past Just get it done." Roland complained.

[What happens after the revenge is over? 】

"Wait until then to think about it. Before then, you should eat and drink, and don't forget about anything." Roland directly threw it away, and then asked: "Speaking of which, what's the reward for completing my mission?"

[Don't worry, why are you urging me? 】The system grumbled.

At this time, two brothers, Farrugia, Ikosela, and Robles Amber, came over. Roland spoke first before Farrugia could speak: "You are not hurt, are you?"

Farrugia laughed when he heard this: "No, the fighting quality of these mercenaries is too weak. If the quality of soldiers in this world is like this, I think Lord Roland will be able to spread gold on this land soon. of glory."

"This group of people are just minions, not even a regular army. The leader is just a rookie mercenary who has just entered the C-level. It's okay to bully the unarmed people. But when it comes to you who have experienced the Broken War, you will definitely The true colors are revealed." Roland explained.

Amber nodded in agreement: "Lord Roland is right. They can't even push my brother away, and they still want to attack the golden tree. They really overestimate their capabilities."

Upon hearing this, Farrugia said in an unhappy tone: "Lord Roland kindly invited them to come to the camp to rest, but in the end they had evil intentions towards the golden tree and deserved to be killed."

At this time, the golden tree emitted waves of light, shining on the corpses of the mercenaries who had just died.Their flesh and blood bodies gradually disappeared, eventually turning into specks of golden light that were absorbed by the golden tree.

The system also gave a prompt at the right time: [The reward is about to be released, please check the host carefully. 】

Roland looked at the meter representing the ether of the golden tree. It had changed to (361/404).

Moreover, he found that Farrugia and others were not surprised that the corpse turned into golden light and was absorbed by the golden tree. The system also noticed his doubts and spoke at the right time:

[What are you thinking about, silly boy?Although I don’t know what the situation is in the game you chose, the phenomenon of corpses turning into golden light must have appeared in the game.Silly boy, do you think carefully about your memories? 】

Roland was stunned. He had indeed seen this phenomenon in the game.In the game plot, the player who plays the role of the faded one is brought to the golden tree again after burning the tree, and meets Godfrey.The 'Omen King' Menggert, who was defeated by the player before, was held in Godfrey's arms and his body turned into golden light and dispersed.

When watching this CG, Roland didn't pay much attention. It turned out that he was attracted by the golden tree.

He came back to his senses and nodded thoughtfully, as long as it would not arouse doubts among the soldiers under his command, and avoid another troublesome explanation.

"Lord Roland, we have captured this little girl." Verena and Lucci, who had not shown up during the battle, came back from behind the golden tree. Lucci was still carrying the fainted Elizabeth on his shoulders.

This woman took advantage of the battle between Farrugia and the others with Regeas' mercenaries to realize that her food was laced with something that would make people sleepy. She forcibly pinched her arm with her nails to stay awake and then abandoned Wellington herself. A man ran around behind the golden tree.

Of course, all this was seen by Roland. During the battle, he called out to the two war pick soldiers who had not yet participated in the battle, asking them to hunt down the woman.

Roland was not worried about what would happen to Verena and Lucci. It would be extraordinary if a woman who had no strength and was tired of running for an unknown amount of time could counter-kill two regular army soldiers who had superior physical fitness and equipment.

"Boom." Lu Qi didn't show the slightest pity, and directly threw the ragged Elizabeth on the grass with a muffled sound.

Perhaps due to the severe pain of being thrown to the ground, Elizabeth woke up with a groan. When she saw Roland, her pupils clearly expanded and contracted violently.

Then she made a confused and frightened expression on her face. Of course, the fear might not be fake. She tried her best to show a sweet smile and said: "I just saw you fighting, and I was afraid of accidentally hurting me, so I hid. You win." Did you get rid of those rude and cruel mercenaries? Thank you so much! If you can escort me back to Duogu City, I still have some money hidden in my family that I can pay you in return."

Roland looked at Elizabeth with a playful expression. He took out a replacement alarm clock from the system store, and then he thought something was wrong.People in the other world have never seen an alarm clock, and then they replaced it with a small hourglass, the kind that will drain out in about 20 seconds.

"Robles, Amber, hold her arm for me. I have something to ask her." Roland squatted in front of Elizabeth. Although Robles and Amber didn't understand what Roland wanted to do, they still obeyed the order. Controlling Elizabeth's arms one left and one right.

This action exposed the naked girl's heaving chest defenselessly to Roland. He was attracted by instinct and glanced at it, but stopped paying attention.Then he placed the hourglass and the red dew drop Holy Grail bottle on her smooth belly, and the two bottles swayed slightly with the latter's breathing.

"I ask, you answer. If you don't answer my question before the hourglass countdown ends, Icosela will cut off one of her fingers for me." Roland said with a smile what made Elizabeth frightened.

She was just about to struggle when she was controlled by Robles and Amber. However, the small hourglass and red dew drop Holy Grail bottle placed on her abdomen fell to the grass due to the ups and downs of her movements.The little hourglass fell down just the opposite way.

Roland raised his eyebrows, picked up the small hourglass, waved it in front of Elizabeth, and said, "One."

"What one? Wait, wait, I'll tell you! I'll tell you! I'll tell you whatever you want to ask!" Elizabeth was confused at first, then realized what Roland said and begged for mercy.

But Ikosela moved faster, and with a flash of cold light, a finger on Elizabeth's right hand was cut off by her with precision. Even Robles, who was controlling Elizabeth's arm, was startled and did not see Ikosela clearly at all. The pulling action made me tremble.

Hiss... Roland originally wanted to scare her, and then chop off one of her fingers when she really disobeyed.As a result, Ikosela's attack was too decisive, which made it difficult for him to deal with it.

"I said it, I really said it." Elizabeth screamed, her fingers connected to her heart. The heartbreaking pain made her beautiful face distort, and tears slipped down her face.

Roland covered his ears with disgust, waited until Elizabeth's wailing voice became quieter, then placed the hourglass on her belly again, and then asked: "What is the real reason why you are being chased by this group of mercenaries?"

"Yes, it's because I didn't reach an agreement with Marek, the city lord of Duogu City, when we were doing business, and I also learned some secrets about the city lord's business. So Marek sent these mercenaries to massacre my family. As soon as it was empty, all the guards I took along the way also ran away, and only Wellington was still with me." Elizabeth said with sobs, and her weak tone made her look pitiful.

However, Roland sighed and said helplessly and politely: "Miss Elizabeth, the leader of Regias said something about you before he died... so."

After speaking, Roland spread his hands, and Elizabeth realized that the lie she had told had been discovered, struggled again, and the small hourglass fell to the ground again.

"Icosela, cut off both of them this time." Roland ordered without mercy. Following Icosela's movements, two slender fingers fell on the grass, and the blood stained some of the grass red. tip.

"Ah! You devil! Common man! Despicable ant! My family will bury you again when they know your behavior! You damn devil!" The severe pain made Elizabeth lose her mind and cursed. She tried to kick Roland with her legs, but Roland pinned her down with her knees. The grass beneath her was left in a mess by her struggle.

"You really know me, right? How do you know me?" Roland asked curiously.

Elizabeth remained silent and turned away, as if she wanted to kill or chop him into pieces as you pleased, but her body was still twitching from the pain of a broken finger.

"Let me ask you honestly, can't you just answer it? Why bother if you have to suffer the physical pain?" Roland sighed, handed the red dew drop Holy Grail bottle to Ikosela, and told her: "Put it on Put the severed fingers together and pour this stuff over the cut.”

"Yes." Ikosela took the Holy Grail bottle of red dew drops, picked up three severed fingers on the grass, and with the help of Robles, put red dew drops on the wounds of the severed fingers, which healed quickly.

Elizabeth was a little confused as to why Roland suddenly treated her wounds, but the pain disappeared and her fingers came back, which relieved her a lot of physical pain.

She thought Roland was scared because of her words, but Roland said at this time: "Icosela, you connected her middle finger and index finger wrongly. We good people will do our best to help her connect it again."

"Eh? Ouch -" Before Elizabeth could react, she felt a sharp pain in her right hand again.
