Law of the Devil Chapter 59: [The fate of the adventurer]


-Chapter 59 [Fate of the Adventurer]

The camp of the Snow Wolf Mercenary Regiment is very good. It can be seen that this is a group of people who are accustomed to camping in the wild.

This low-lying terrain effectively plays a role in wind protection. The two high slopes next to it are very defensive. If you encounter an accident, as long as you can effectively guard the gap in the middle, you can ensure the safety of the camp Already.

Dewey and Dardanelle entered the camp with the head of Beinrich, so he was greeted by the surprised look of many mercenaries.

This camp is no less. Under Dewey's visual inspection, there are about a hundred people. Different from those of the noble private army or empire's local defense army that Dewey had seen. These mercenaries do not have uniform armor or equipment. Most of them are very personally dressed. Some wear leather jackets, some wear leather robes, and others wear leather armor.

Only, in the role of cover in the snow forest, most people choose white.

As for the weapons they use, it's even stranger, with swords, machetes, and axes, with short spears ... Du Wei even saw a guy with a mace-like weapon.

Moreover, there is no exception for these people. Everyone has a defensive and defiant atmosphere. When Du Wei entered the camp, there were still some guys who were grinding their arms coldly watching Du Wei and Dada Neil as two outsiders.

More people shouted, "Hey! Commander, why did you bring a child in! Hahahaha, this guy is the new one you recruited? He doesn't seem to be weaned yet!"

The words immediately aroused the laughter of the people around.

Beinrich's face sank, and he said, "No bullshit! Do your own thing! Give me a polite point, this is our noble guest!"

It seems that the commander is extremely prestigious. As soon as he said this, although some people disagreed, everyone closed his mouth.

"Okay, Lord Magician, these are rude men, and they do n’t know how to be polite." Beinrich later wanted to invite Dewey to live in his tent, but Duwe declined politely, so the head of the people asked To make room for them in the middle of the camp, Dewey and Dardanelle set up a small tent themselves.

In a few moments, the commander sent his men to send two thick blankets.

"These guys don't seem to be very friendly to us." Du Wei looked at the mercenary who sent the tent indifferently, and turned back and smiled at Dardanelle.

"It's normal." Dada Neil swaggered: "In this kind of team, newcomers are generally difficult to accept immediately. They prefer to trust their old companions who were born and died ... even in the regular army. The same is true. "

At night, the mercenaries set up a few large fires in the middle of the camp, and the mercenaries sat around the fire and waited for dinner.

Beinrich personally invited Dewey to dinner with him and squeezed in front of a fire with him.

The mercenaries have a much better attitude towards Dewey. The head of the regiment has announced Dewey's magician status. Still, some people looked at Dewey with skeptical eyes ... after all, he looked too young.

Not only the mercenaries, but even Beinrich's doubts.

Since sitting in front of the fire, taking off the thick leather hat covering one-third of the face, Dewey looks even smaller ... Beinrich can't help but doubt: Is a small child really a magician?

Or ... even if he is a magician, but at such a young age ... I'm afraid he's just a magic apprentice? Or is it just a first-level magician?

Although a magician is rare, if it is just a magic apprentice or a first-class magician ... then there is no value in solicitation.

The mercenaries in front of the bonfire next to them are doing their own thing: they use a few big iron pots, melt the snow and burn them into hot water, and then the two strong men lift some out of the tent. Yes, the corpses of animals, large and small ... Du Wei took a closer look and did not distinguish whether it was a cow or a sheep. Dadaniel recognized it, and frowned, "This is ... God, a snowy camel ... oh, this is a burrowing cow ... Ah, and a snow and snow wolf! God, do you eat these at night? "

Beinrich laughed and said, "No, it's us! We, and you, eat these at night."

"The corpse of Warcraft." Dardanelle sighed.

"Yes, Warcraft." Beinrich pouted and smiled: "In my opinion, these things are not much different from ordinary beasts ... at least the taste in the mouth is not much different, only But they use some magic when they are alive, and when they die, they become our food.

Du Wei didn't say anything. He watched the two guys pull out their sharp knives, split the pieces of Warcraft's corpses into pieces one by one, and threw them all into the big iron pot for cooking.

The skins of these World of Warcraft have been chopped off long ago. Du Wei watched the two big men go back to move more World of Warcraft from the tent. He could not help whistling. He looked at Beinrich: " Your Excellency, it seems that you have learned a lot from this trip.

Beinrich said indifferently: "It is not easy to live a life. This kind of life is also a struggle. But you are right, this time the harvest is okay. We have spent five days in this forest, hunting together. There were more than twenty Warcrafts, but I also lost seven or eight men. Three people died and three were permanently disabled. "The mercenary commander sighed:" These Warcraft skins can sell well in the south. Price, and their magic core ... you magicians are willing to pay high prices. "

Du Wei couldn't help but look at the bodies of those Warcraft ...

The ice and snow demon wolf that these mercenaries moved out of was recognized by Dewey. The last time I saw the ice and snow devil wolf in a fantasy world when he was played by the horror demon in Half Point City.

But the corpses of the demon wolves removed by these mercenaries are obviously smaller than the one changed in the last fantasy.

The water in the pot is gradually boiling and the meat is overflowing. Many mercenaries can't help but sniff their noses.

The leader asked people to take out a few large bags of wine from their tent. The mercenaries immediately cheered, and then a few leather bags were passed down, and each mercenary drank. A sip of wine. In this kind of ghost weather that can cool people's noses, it is the best enjoyment to take a sip of wine to warm your body.

Beinrich didn't forget to treat Dewey. He found a silver bottle from his arms and laughed: "This is my private collection, the best wine in the north ... Try it? "

Du Wei took the bottle with a smile and took a sip, but he was not nearly choked!

"Cough! What kind of wine is this ..." Du Wei coughed uncomfortably, and his voice was hoarse, he just felt that a flame was burning in his mouth!

During the rush, Du Wei could only grab Xue from the ground and desperately rip into his mouth! After swallowing three large batches of snow in one breath, I felt that the feeling of being burned by the fire in my throat was relieved.

Beinrich laughed and said, "Lord Magician, this is a good thing! I made this wine with the core of the flame rhinoceros! When I drink it, it seems to be stuffed into my throat. A fire! Absolutely enough! Especially in this kind of ghost weather, a small sip can make your body hot! You will be hot all night! "

Du Wei pinched his nose: "Thanks! I can't stand this kind of thing."

Beinrich laughed, took a sip, and immediately felt a painful and happy expression on his face. He took a few hard sips, and then gasped, exclaiming: "Cool ! "

He handed the bottle to Dardanelle again: "Friend, take a sip!"

Dada Neal hesitated to taste it, but his tolerance was much stronger than Du Wei. After taking a sip, he also took a few sips like Beinrich, but showed a happy expression, admired Said: "Good thing! It really warms me up! Damn, it's like there's a fire in the belly!"

Next, Du Wei tasted some cooked WoW meat. The flesh of the snow and ice wolf was a bit old and had a bit of sour taste. Du Wei was not used to eating. However, in such a place, it is very enjoyable to have a mouthful of meat in the snow and ice.

At least when he was following the old magician last night, Du Wei was a dry food.

Well, I don't know if the old guy is watching me around now ... Master I sit and drink and eat meat, the old guy drinks wind, which feels very good.

Du Wei ate a little, got better, and tried two more drinks of Beinrich's special wine. This time with full preparation, it is not as uncomfortable as last time, and this kind of The wine really is a good thing. After drinking it, it seems that a flame immediately burned all the internal organs, and the whole body instantly became hot, and the whole body of cold was expelled completely!

"Sorcerer, you came to this forest, you must be looking for some Warcraft?" Beinrich smiled, "The magicians who come here are for these purposes. If so , Maybe we can help each other, maybe, I have the Warcraft you need. "

Dada Neil and Dewey glanced at each other, Dewey nodded, and Dada Neill replied, "Mr. Head, have you heard of the Golden Eyed Python?"

A bit of surprise appeared on Beinrich's face: "Golden Eye Python? That's a very good guy. I saw a magician caught here when I was young, but we ourselves have never caught that. Kind of thing ... and ... "

He hesitated a moment, and slowly said, "This is just the periphery of the frozen forest, the high-level WoW like the Golden Eyed Python, and you have to go deeper into the woods. The powerful Warcrafts are all in the center of the forest. There is no such thing on the periphery. However, the more you go inside, the more dangers there are. "

"Central area?" Du Wei smiled: "Excuse me for the first time. I am the first time I came to the Frozen Forest. You see, I am a young magician, I am not familiar with this place .You say the central zone ... We have been walking in the woods for two days. Is this just a peripheral zone? "

"Of course." Beinrich shook his head: "The frozen forest is too big ... It can even be said how big this forest is, I'm afraid no one has ever really measured it in person. I heard twenty A few years ago, a powerful magician took several knights in the temple and walked deep into the forest for a month. None of them could go to the other side of the forest. The ghost knew where the forest was, maybe it was The end of the world may also be uncertain. Moreover, there are records that can be inspected at that time, which was twenty years ago. That time, a great magician of the magic union brought in several high-level holy knights in the temple. .Unfortunately I heard that in the end only the magician came out alive. In the heart of the frozen forest, I heard that there are many high-level Warcraft infestations. Even a powerful magician cannot deal with several high-level Warcraft siege .As for our mercenaries, our Snow Wolf mercenary regiment has always been active only in the outer zone. The longest distance we have traveled is nine days ... and that was a few years ago. "

Du Wei is a little surprised ...

A wizard and a few high holy knights haven't come to an end after walking for a month?

Is this forest so big?

Dada Neil's face is also a bit ugly ... In this case, where can the Golden Eyed Python be found?

"I advise two." Beinrich's expression was very serious: "We Snow Wolf mercenaries, hunting Warcraft in this forest, have been doing it for many years, and I have encountered some come in Find a magician of Warcraft. But even some magicians do n’t dare to go too far ... At most, you can walk near 'Dayuan Lake' and no one dares to go further. Two ... I know you are A magician, I also respect the ability of the magician. But I still advise you to give up your plan if it is not necessary ... "

Dada Neil's face was very ugly. He thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Sir leader, thank you for your kindness, but I have to find the golden-eyed python. Um ... and ..." He suddenly face There was a strange expression on it: "I know that the people in your group are specialized in hunting Warcraft. If I can, I am willing to pay a high price to hire you to help me find ..."

"Sorry, no." Beinrich refused very simply: "Although we make money from this, and I also know that the greater the risk, the greater the profit. However, if we know we are going to die hard If you do, then it is not a risk, but an idiot's behavior. Our Snow Wolf mercenary regiment does not have the ability to enter the center of the frozen forest. No matter how high you pay, I am afraid we are powerless. >

Dada Neigh sighed. He knew that Beinrich was telling the truth, so he didn't say more, and took a sip of wine.

Beinrich's attention returned to Du Wei's body, he thought for a moment, and said, "My Lord, I'm curious about you. In my impression, few people are at your age. I can qualify as a magician. I have lived forty years old, including 20 years of adventure, and I have met many magicians, but I have never seen a genius like you. "

Du Wei laughed bitterly ...

A genius? That's something you haven't seen before.

Du Wei's own strength now is only about third-level magician. It is a genius than ordinary people ... but ... Compared with the other two female geniuses Du Wei met, Du Wei has nothing to be proud of.

At the age of fifteen or sixteen, he has obtained the qualification of eighth-level magician! That's called a genius! And Du Wei met two at a time.

Seeing Dewey not speaking, Beinrich was silent for a while, and slowly came out a scroll from his arms.

"Sir, I want to make a deal with you. I wonder if you are interested?"

Du Wei's eyes brightened: "What transaction?"

"Yes, I know that magicians are very rich, so if I give you any treasure or something, you definitely won't look into it ... so ..." Beinrich smiled: "I and my people will continue to go north for about four or five days. We will walk to Dayuan Lake and then turn around. I think, you and your companions are going all the way north. Yes, then in the next few days, you might as well follow us on the road. My people and I can act as your guide and take you all the way to Dayuan Lake, such a large forest. If there is no guide, I am afraid it is It's easy to get lost. What do you think? "

Beinrich has unrolled this scroll: "This is a map of the frozen forest! There is absolutely no place on the market for such a map! Even if you spend ten thousand Gold coins can never be bought! Because this is how I, Beinrich, used my adventure in this forest for nearly twenty years, and forty times of experience, draw it from my memory! I guarantee the entire empire. I can't find a second such detailed map. "

Du Wei moved!

He took the map to expand ...

A large expanse of forest icons are drawn on the drawing. The southern end is a few entrances to the forest. The drawing also marks several small towns in the south of the frozen forest, as well as some set by the Northern Storm Corps patrol. Checkpoint.

Du Wei glanced a little, and found the way he had entered the forest with the old magician the night before.

In the drawings, the size of the entire forest is unknown, but Beinrich pointed it out a little, and Du Wei probably had a bit of a concept.

"Here, here is about where we are now." Beinrich's finger poked a bit on the map.

From the map, this location is very, very close to the entrance to the southern edge of the forest. Dewey can't help but feel discouraged ... After walking for two days hard, I just came out of such a small place on the map.

Beinrich smiled, and then pointed a little bit inside the forest on the map: "Here, this is the destination of my and my people's trip, Dayuan Lake."

The lake is marked by a slightly flat round sign on the map.

Beinrich briefly introduced that this lake is located in the forest. It is a lake in the forest. But the area is quite large.

"That lake is about five or six miles wide ... at least that wide, although I have been there a few times, but I have not measured it specifically. In fact, I have never been to the other side of the lake. Dayuan Lake, It's a dividing line for some adventurous teams in the frozen forest. "

"How to say?" Du Wei was curious about everything in this frozen forest.

"The dividing line of strength." Beinrich laughed: "Basically, in the south of the lake, everything is not too dangerous. Mercenary regiments like us can still move. But ... the lake In the north, very few people dare to go. Those who dared to cross the lake and continue north, according to what I know, are those who have a name on the whole continent ... at least my Byinrich is not that kind of person. I The people who took me have been to Dayuan Lake a few times, but never once dared to go around the lake and continue north. "

Suddenly, he has a weird smile on his face: "By the way, if it's summer, I won't take people to Dayuan Lake. You know, where there is water, usually There will be dangerous beasts haunting ... Wow is the same, Warcraft also needs to drink water, and Warcraft also likes to take a bath. In the summer, although the weather here is also very cold, it is not as freezing as it is now. It is just in early spring The lake water has not yet thawed, the lake is ice, and there is no World of Warcraft to go to the lake. But in summer it is different, that place is simply the gathering place of World of Warcraft! Hell ... I once heard that there are several mercenary groups, Hundreds of people were attacked by Warcraft by the lake! The whole team was dead there! So, because of the current season, I dare to go there. If I change the summer, I will definitely be far away from there . "

Beinrich finished all this, and glanced at Dewey: "How about? Lord Mage? My transaction is simple: I and my people will take you to that lake, and I will take this The map is for you ... Although I have n’t been to the north side of the lake, I have collected a lot of information over the years, all are news spread by the strongmen who have been to the north side of the lake, but it cost me a lot of money to collect Information! The signs on the map, even if you cross the Great Lake and continue north, at least the topography of the next two or three days is also shown on the map. "

Dou Wei glanced at Beinrich: "Dear Sir, ... I'm curious. Since you don't plan to go to the north side of the lake, why should you collect the information on the north side of the lake?"

Beinrich's eyes showed a sigh of emotion. The expression on his face was sincere and serious: "Lord Magician, please remember, I am an adventurer!"

When he said this, his expression even felt a little pious.

"I'm an adventurer! Although ... I'm doing mercenary work now, I'm taking advantage of adventures in the frozen forest ... but I'm not a copper-smelling businessman The blood of an adventurer is flowing in my bones! "Beinrich said deeply," I have adventured in this place for half my life. Since I was young, listening to those legends, I have been yearning for the north side of the lake. What does the frozen forest look like ... Although I know my strength is far from being the top continent's strongest. And now, there are a lot of people who follow me, and I have to shoulder their responsibilities. But, I also have my own dream! My dream is ... In the future, when I am old and retire, I will no longer be the head of this group, and my people will all give them to their new leaders, then, when When I am alone, I have no responsibility, I will prepare to cross the lake and go to the north to see it! I have been around this place all my life! In the future, if I never die before seeing what the north looks like, then I Will No purpose! I collected this information for the purpose of planning in the future! I plan to get on the road alone after I'm ready, and I'm even ready, I will die in the north of the Great Lake in the future! Even if I die, At least I can look at what the legendary North Shore looks like before I die ... I was dead there, and I can be considered an adventurer's fate!

At this point, Beinrich said something to make Du Wei respectfully:

"As an adventurer, it is a shame to die in bed! As a true adventurer, you should choose to let yourself die in the most exciting journey!"

Du Wei took a deep breath, his tone could not help but become a little more respectful: "Dear Sir, you promised our guide and sent us this map ... then you need me for you What to do? "

"It's very simple." Beinrich smiled. "I only have two conditions. First, if we have any trouble during our journey together, such as being attacked by others or Warcraft, you , Lord Magician, please stand by our side, we need the help of the magician when appropriate. "

"No problem." Du Wei immediately answered: "Since we are on the road together, that is our companion, which is taken for granted."

"Thank you. My second requirement is ... if you can go back after completing this adventure ... please apologize for using such unlucky words. But I still advise you for the last time, the north is It's dangerous! "Seeing that Du Wei didn't accept his suggestion, the head sighed:" So ... if you can come back, I think, you are the best magician I have ever seen ... you are so young! Apart from genius, I have no other words to describe. I believe that in the future, you will definitely become a well-known power in the mainland. If there is one day, I hope you can remember the name of our Snow Wolf mercenary group ... … I take the liberty to ask you to remember that once in the frozen forest, the Snow Wolf Mercenary Corps has given you help. As for this kind of humanity, when appropriate, and when you are convenient, help us, Enough. "

A very smart leader!

Du Wei has a little more respect for this leader!

If the words of "Destiny of the Adventurer" just made him look like an idealist ... then the following trading conditions seem to have a long-term vision!

For them, there was actually no price to pay for them ... they originally planned to go to Dayuan Lake. A team of more than 100 people, bringing two more with them, did not cost much. Instead, there was an additional magician companion on the road.

In addition, as for the map ... The map was made by the head of the team. Although he gave it to Du Wei, he could draw another one at any time. For him, nothing was lost.

And these have changed to the favor of a magician!

In Roland, magicians are more precious than gold, especially those powerful magicians. The leader's calculations are very clever. Du Wei has become a magician at such a young age. His future must be bright ... as long as he can go back alive, it is equal to the Snow Wolf Mercenary Corps at no cost, and a future The great magician has forged friendship!

You can count on some time in the future to get the help of a great magician!

An idealist, but there is no lack of reality.

This is Dewey's evaluation of Beinrich.

•;

Nothing tonight.

The next morning, when Dewey got out of the tent, the Snow Wolf Mercenary Regiment was ready to go. Some warriors who are not afraid of the cold scrub their bodies with snow, and others shave carefully with daggers. These guys who are accustomed to the adventure of life, everyone has a temperament to defend, and finally called his companions on the road with a full cry.

Dada Neal's mood was a little down.

After Chairman Beinrich introduced the situation in the frozen forest last night, Dardanelle was very clear that the possibility of finding the golden-eyed python by himself was very small. Even with the little Harry Potter wizard, I'm afraid it's not enough.

Du Wei comforted the Liszt's loyal samurai, and then went on the road with the Snow Wolf mercenary regiment.

The Snow Wolf Mercenary Regiment is very full, and there are two teams scattered around to search for it. This afternoon, Du Wei witnessed the process of hunting Warcraft by the mercenaries.

The search team found a cave of Warcraft, the roots of a towering tree were hollowed out, and a snowy white bear hibernated inside.

This is a "Snarling Snow Bear". This Warcraft is almost twice the size of an ordinary bear. It looks similar to the polar bear known to Dewey in previous lives, but this roaring snow bear can Makes a magical attack: its roar can roll up a small tornado!

The Snow Wolf Mercenaries regiment seems to have a very good way to deal with this kind of Warcraft. A dozen strong warriors tied themselves with their companions with a rope, first thrown with burning pine branches Entered the bear hole, forced the bear out, and then attacked it with a bow and arrow.

The roar of the giant bear stunned a small whirlwind, and the two big men were blown into the air on the spot! Fortunately, they and their companions were tied together. Although they fell a little bit worse, the snow was thick and there was no serious injury. It was just an unlucky guy who fell on a snow-covered stone and sprained his waist.

The mercenaries shrouded the bear with a huge arrow, and then divided into four directions, with dozens of big men pulling on each side.

Finally, the head of Beinrich was holding a giant axe and stood about fifteen steps away from the giant bear. His vigor shone and he threw the axe quickly!

During the silver fight, the head of the team cut the giant bear's head in half with an axe!

Du Wei couldn't help but secretly surprised.

The martial arts of the head of Beinrich is really amazing! One of the three mercenaries of the northern mercenaries, really has the ability!

Du Wei compared him secretly with the martial arts masters he had seen, and found that whether it was Robert Knight or his father's guard captain Alpha Swordsman, I am afraid it was not as good as this Beinrich.

The only thing that can be compared is Joanna's martial arts.

During the cheers of the mercenary soldiers, everyone went up to collect the bear's body. A captain skillfully cut the bear's belly with a dagger, first took out the bear bile, and then cut it out of the bear's head. The magic core was closed.

The rest, the three soldiers quickly peeled off a whole piece of bear skin. As for the bear meat, it was divided into several pieces for the soldiers to share their backs, and then continued on the road.

During this day, Du Wei saw another four or five times in similar scenes. The snow wolf mercenary regiments hunted two more ice and snow demon wolves, but unfortunately, when hunting the second demon wolf, a mercenary was very miserably caught by the devil wolf's paw and broke his stomach on the spot. All flow out!

"This is the life of an adventurer. Every day of adventure, someone may sacrifice." Dardanelle whispered to Dewey, "I also lived this kind of day, but then I chose to quit. . "

The mercenaries only expressed a little condolences to their dead companions, and then buried their companions and continued to hold their heads on the road ...

In the evening, everyone had a meal of devil wolf meat, but when taking turns drinking and warming up, Du Wei carefully noticed a detail.

The dozen mercenaries sitting around the bonfire never touched the wine bag that passed around.

"Those who are the vigil tonight." The head looked at Du Wei's doubtful eyes, said lightly: "The vigils, I demand that they must be 100% alert and calm and rational all night! Because in the In this kind of place, if the night watchers are negligent, even the entire team may be finished! Therefore, night watchers are definitely not allowed to drink a drop of wine! But as a reward, these night watchmen After the substitutions the next night, they can get two copies of the wine. The loot they got the next day, they can get one more when they return. "

When the leader said that, he added in a low voice: "Of course, if they can still go back alive at that time."

After listening to this, Du Wei looked at the vigil soldiers who were watching his colleagues cheering and drinking calmly ... a little respect in his eyes-
