Chapter 229: Honest Mercenary Group, Desert Bone-Eating Spiders
Immediately afterwards, as Luo Chen and his group joined the team, the entire Mailon Mercenary Group lined up very seriously to welcome their arrival.
Each of them behaved more obediently than the other. No one dared to look at them for too long, for fear that Luo Chen would notice them.
For the mercenaries, they do like wealth and beauty, but they want to live more.
They weren't stupid enough to start a conflict with a wizard who could blow through a snowy mountain with one blow.
In life-threatening situations, they are still very good at managing their emotions.
Ai Jiangtu and the others who came with Luo Chen were amazed.
If they had not seen the true nature of this group of mercenaries before, they would have really thought that this was their true character.
After the squads were complete, the Mailon Mercenary Group began to get ready.
The Tianshan Great Rift Valley is not nearby. You need to go around several low-altitude mountains under the Tianshan Mountains and reach a desert area.
Compared to those teams that set out early, the Mailon Mercenary Group was relatively slow.
But this is normal. Other teams have only 10 to 20 people at most, but the Mailon Mercenary Group has more than 100 people.
When the Mailon Mercenary Group arrived at the entrance of the Tianshan Great Rift Valley in the desert layer, they found that many mages were already stationed there.
They did not choose to enter, but instead set up some temporary tents or built some mud houses using magic.
The Great Rift Valley is a new land. Even if you don’t enter the Trace of Tianshan Mountains, there are still many treasures hidden in it.
Normally, these people should rush in as quickly as possible after knowing the news.
If they had plundered as much treasure as possible from the Great Rift Valley, they wouldn't have set up tents like they are doing now.
"Oh my god, what's going on? Are you all having a picnic here?"
Zhao Manyan's imagination was so wild that everyone else rolled their eyes.
Who is crazy enough to have a picnic here?
"They seem to have encountered some trouble." Mu Nujiao said.
The Mailon Mercenaries were not reckless men who would just rush in. Kuma immediately sent someone to inquire about the situation.
"It seems that a flood of rocks appeared in the Great Rift Valley, and it buried alive a team of hunters who entered the valley half a day ago."
Tommy, the captain of the third squad, said.
"It's just a small situation. Do you think it will scare these people? Don't forget that this is Tianshan, the land of brave people." said the team leader.
"It's not that simple. The flood seems to occur at irregular intervals and is quite destructive.
Especially if we are in the Great Rift Valley and suddenly encounter a flood of rocks, we can’t escape or stop it.”
Tommy said seriously.
"With so many of us, can't we stop them even if we build a defensive wall?" Kuma asked.
“It cannot be stopped. The Tianshan Great Rift Valley itself is a terrain that gradually sinks from the highest altitude.
The flood of rocks has become turbulent and fierce after continuous rolling. Even the strongest defensive magic can't hold it back for long under such consumption." Tommy said.
"Why don't you leave?"
Luo Chen looked at Kuma in front of him and asked puzzledly.
When Kuma saw Luo Chen, he respectfully explained the reason for the matter.
"Just go straight and reach the gentle canyon before the sun rises."
Luo Chen recalled the contents of the original book and then spoke calmly.
Although Kuma wanted to ask the reason, seeing Luo Chen's indifferent look, he swallowed his words and continued to move forward according to Luo Chen's instructions.
....................................
The members of the Mailon Mercenary Group continued to advance under Luo Chen's instructions.
As the Mailong Mercenary Group marched in so forcefully, the hesitant mage groups followed behind. The Great Rift Valley was not just a long and winding path. After entering it, there would be countless forks in the Great Rift Valley.
No one can tell which one is the way to continue to higher altitudes, after all, this rift valley is too long!
When you are in one of the valleys, you cannot tell whether the terrain is flat or rising.
What's more, the ascending valley road is not necessarily unobstructed. It is very likely that after walking for a few kilometers, you will end up at a dead end.
It is difficult for sunlight to penetrate, as the rift is very deep and narrow in some places.
"Damn, how do we get around this damn place?" said Gavin, the regimental commander, with great impatience.
"It should be in that direction."
"Should? I don't want to go back to that cave full of spider poop that I just walked through!" Gavin cursed.
"Stop!"
Just as everyone continued to move forward, Luo Chen, who was at the front, suddenly stopped and shouted to the people behind him.
"What's wrong?" Mu Nujiao immediately stepped forward and asked.
"There is a demon." Luo Chen said calmly.
"demon?!"
Hearing this, the Mailon Mercenary Group immediately panicked, and it was only after Kuma shouted that the team stabilized.
"where?"
Kuma walked to Luo Chen's side and asked.
Luo Chen didn't say much, just pointed upwards silently.
Kuma immediately looked towards the rock walls on both sides of the rift. After observing carefully for a while, he soon discovered something strange. There were some spiders with colors similar to the rock walls lurking!
"Get ready to fight!"
After Kuma saw it clearly, he immediately shouted to the team.
"Accept the challenge? Where are the monsters around here?"
Tommy looked around and saw no trace of demons.
"Open your eyes and look carefully at the top of the rock wall!"
Kuma yelled in anger. The mercenaries looked at the rock walls on both sides and saw several spiders in some concave or convex places.
"Oh my God, it's the Desert Bone-Eating Spider!" a mercenary shouted.
"Oh my god, it really is this thing. If the captain hadn't discovered it in advance, we might have been ambushed by them."
Jiang Yu said with a hint of fear.
The Mailon Mercenary Group had experienced many life and death situations, so faced with these desert bone-eating spiders that regarded them as food, they immediately formed a formation.
"put!"
At Kuma's command, the mercenary group's mages launched the first round of attacks in unison.
"Hiss!!!!"
The desert bone-eating spiders reacted quickly, and when the magic flew towards them, they all shrank back into the crevices where they were hiding!
A large-scale magical sweep failed to kill a few desert bone-eating spiders.
Seeing that things were not going well over on Kuma's side, several desert bone-eating spiders rushed straight towards Luo Chen.
But obviously they chose the wrong target. The overall strength of Luo Chen's group, which is mainly composed of the National Government Team, is even stronger than the mercenary group!
Even the weakest person has reached the advanced level of cultivation in the past two years.
The strong ones among them, such as Branquil, needless to say, easily wiped out hundreds of demons with a magic, and the mercenaries were sweating profusely...
