Chapter 23 Solon Canyon

Broken Bi Human corpses are scattered in the beautiful and quiet mountains and fields.

If it was a small mercenary group that encountered the Bi Human group, the broken corpses on the ground would belong to the human race. Unfortunately, Bi Xiequn encountered the Blue Enchantress today!

This is a land where the weak prey on the strong. This is the law of survival in the Ireland continent.

Except for five or six mercenaries who were slightly injured and bleeding, Bi Xiangqun did not cause much loss to the mercenary group.

"Brothers who are injured, simply bandage them. Let's leave here immediately. The bloody smell of so many corpses will soon attract large beasts." As soon as the battle ended, Keynes gave the mercenary group an order to evacuate.

The entire mercenary group moved very quickly. The injured mercenaries helped each other briefly treat their wounds, and the others quickly left the battlefield after sorting out their weapons and equipment.

Bi Jiang's corpses were left on the ground. Although Bi Human can barely be regarded as a first-level monster, its value is really not much. Although the fur is worth some money, it is too troublesome to peel, and the meat is rough and difficult to eat. In the Orlando Mountains, where the mountains are full of prey, no mercenaries or hunters will eat it. Bi hyena meat.

The mercenary group marched continuously on the rugged mountain road for an afternoon, and when it was getting dusk, they stopped at a mountain col to rest.

After a life-and-death battle, and another whole afternoon of non-stop driving, even a third-level warrior's physique was almost at its limit. But Arthur found that the mercenaries of the Blue Demon Queen were really different. Not a single mercenary complained or fell behind throughout the afternoon. Even the injured mercenaries were supported by their partners or took turns carrying them. No one fell behind. .

After the team stopped, Arthur was so tired that he lay down on the ground, but then got up immediately because he found that except for himself, no mercenary sat down to rest immediately even if his physical strength reached the limit.

The mercenaries were naturally divided into several groups. Adeline directed a group of mercenaries to unload the boxes from the musk ox's back and prepare for dinner and camping. Tony and Angus each led a group of mercenaries and continued to march in the left and right directions. They had to patrol the surroundings to ensure that there were no hidden dangers such as large monsters nearby, and then the mercenary groups would officially start setting up camp.

The other mercenaries who had no mission for the time being stood around seemingly loosely, but in fact they still formed a ring to protect the musk ox and the cargo in the center. No one could get close to the commissioned items of this mission without any movement.

This is the experience accumulated by the veteran mercenaries for many years of missions, because danger can come at any time without warning in the Orlando Mountains.

When Tony and Angus returned one after another, the mercenary group began to officially set up camp.

When the outer security posts were set up, Angus sprinkled a circle of insect repellent around the camp and set up several small traps with early warning functions, the mercenaries had been hanging around for a day before finally letting go.

Taking this opportunity, the accompanying wood magician Walpole used two "Wood Sprout" spells to completely heal the two mercenaries who had been seriously injured before. In a non-combat environment, a magician will not easily let his magic power be less than half of his own. Before Walpole's magic was fully restored, the remaining injured mercenaries could only use herbs to stop the bleeding.

The other mercenaries started talking and laughing around the newly lit bonfire. Before the food was cooked, some people couldn't wait to take out their own wine.

Keynes, Adeline, Tony and Angus, the leaders of the mercenary groups, sat alone in front of a small bonfire. The elf Ilya still did not appear in the team. Arthur was a barbecue for a few people. The machine came over.

Adeline used the end of her magic wand to gently stir the bonfire to make it burn brighter. The fire magician's wand was a natural fire starter.

"I think you should tell us the destination of this mission, so that we can be more prepared for the next trip." Adeline said while fiddling with the fire without raising her head.

"I thought as long as I didn't tell you, you would never ask?" Keynes replied jokingly.

"You are the leader, so of course you have your own reasons if you don't tell me about the mission, but I feel very bad since entering the mountains."

"A woman's sixth sense?"

"Yes, a woman's intuition."

"Solon Canyon, the destination of our mission, is Solon Canyon."

Adeline's hand shook, and a huge ball of fire burst out from one end of the magic wand. Keynes's direct words obviously shocked her.

Tony and Angus were both stunned, but then their faces showed completely different expressions. Tony's eyes were filled with excitement, while Angus's face seemed to be suddenly frozen, his expression stiff.

This was the first time Arthur heard the place name "Solon Canyon", and he was very curious about what kind of place made so many people react so much.

Adeline sighed softly, "No wonder I feel uneasy. It is a cursed place. It is said that there are still residual auras of gods and demons left after the battle between gods and demons in ancient times, intertwined with each other in the canyon, wandering away. Affected by this aura, whether a magician or a warrior, their strength will be greatly limited in the canyon."

"This is not the scariest thing. It is said that the real impact is mental. Many warriors and magicians behave strangely after coming out of the canyon, and some even go completely crazy!" Angus continued after Adeline's words.

"Wealth is found in danger. It was a battlefield in ancient times. There are many good things left. I heard that someone got a legendary broken sword from there. Even if only half of the sword body is left, it is a priceless treasure. If you are lucky, Well, maybe Uncle Tony can get some broken artifacts this time." Tony's eyes were full of excitement. As a thief, Tony naturally liked this kind of ruins, where risks and opportunities coexisted.

"I'm curious now who the employer is? Would he choose to send things to Solon Canyon?" Adeline couldn't help but ask.

Keynes shook his head, "The employer is very mysterious. You know that guy Brandon from the mercenary union. He won't say a word about the information that the employer requires to keep confidential."

"Even with the strength of our mercenary group, it's difficult to go there!" Adeline couldn't help but sigh again.

Keynes was silent for a while, then whispered, "I know the risk of this mission is very high, but the client gave a price that is simply irresistible, and we don't need to enter the canyon, we just need to send things to the mouth of the canyon. Someone Waiting there to pick up the goods."

Adeline didn't speak anymore, she lowered her head and continued to fiddle with the bonfire with her staff. Since she chose the mercenary profession, danger has become a part of life.

The bonfire burned brighter, and the mercenaries' thoughtful faces were reflected in the dancing flames...
