"It may be a hunting party from the town of Benguela." Ellis
After all, they were only two or three hours away from the small town of Benguela.
The population of the town of Benguela is tens of thousands, and the competition is too great to obtain enough resources near the territory.
In addition, the daily consumption in the territory is not small, so some people will indeed go farther away to hunt and gather in deserted places.
Some people will choose a certain group of monsters because they have mastered the skills to deal with them.
Of course, the teams that can be fixedly chosen are generally the powerful teams in the territory, or the teams with backing. Otherwise, killing monsters outside the territory depends on one's own ability.
"Run so far?" Zhou Bai looked at Ellis in surprise.
"There are so many people, so we can just walk around." Ellis said simply, and then repeated what he had just thought of to Zhou Bai.
Since I have decided to stay in Hope Village, I naturally have to find more supporters for myself.
Captain Bayer is one, and so is this village chief.
...
...
On this basis, his attitude towards Zhou Bai was naturally much more attentive. He would show his attitude if he could and help as much as he could.
Zhou Bai listened to Ellis's answer and felt more confident.
It turns out to be the basic operation of the territory.
If you think about it, the same is true for Hope Village now. The needs of the residents can no longer be met within the territory, and they are planning to expand outward.
Looking at Ellis's changing attitude, a hint of deep thought flashed across his eyes.
She had already noticed the change in Ellis' attitude.
Although I had given reminders when I encountered monsters before, they were not as detailed as the one I received later.
When did the change occur?
By the way, it was after encountering the Storm Serpent.
What could happen in dealing with the Storm Serpent that would make them change their minds?
Suddenly, the memory of when all the professionals emerged in droves came back to my mind.
That is what she discovered, that no matter what, these people would start the career of magician.
Later, she observed these hired NPCs and found that they basically started a profession, and not everyone could start the magician profession.
Is this the reason?
Zhou Bai felt that his speculation was mostly correct, and the last possibility could be confirmed when he arrived at the town of Benguela.
As for now, whether it is true or not, it would be beneficial for Hope Village to keep Ellis and his party.
Hope Village needs more mercenaries like this.
"Thank you, you have helped us a lot along the way." Thinking of this, Zhou Bai expressed his gratitude to Ellis without hesitation.
Ellis was stunned for a moment when he heard the other party's thanks, and then he quickly said: "Don't be so polite, this is what I should do."
If it were before, he would have said that it was because the two of them were in a cooperative relationship, but now, he changed his way of saying it.
This can also be regarded as a hint of Zhou Bai's own attitude.
The village chief should be a smart man and can understand.
Zhou Bai did understand, and he would have understood without hearing this sentence, but now after listening, he directly expressed his attitude, "Yes, we are all family, no need to be too polite. I will need to trouble you more when we enter Benguela Town later!"
"My pleasure." Ellis smiled.
The two reached a tacit understanding and quickly put the matter aside, turning their attention back to the fight ahead.
"Should we investigate the situation? Will it lead to any misunderstanding?" Zhou Bai said.
They are dealing with a group of monsters. If such a large group of them appear here and suddenly appear in front of them, it will probably make them feel uneasy, right?
Ellis glanced at Zhou Bai and said directly: "When fighting monsters in the wild, such a team will send people to watch nearby. Maybe we have been discovered now, but we are just passing by. As long as we don't touch their prey, there will be no problem."
They are numerous and powerful, and the other party will not provoke them easily.
Zhou Bai understood what he meant and heaved a long sigh in his heart, "Let's go!"
As they continued to walk towards the fighting, the enemy's scouts had indeed discovered them. Looking at their numbers and levels,
At this time, the Golden Roc monster group's hideout.
A group of professionals were holding a huge vine net and heading towards Jin Peng. Once the net was cast and touched Jin Peng, the vines on it seemed to come alive and quickly entangled Jin Peng tightly.
The Golden Roc is the overlord of the sky and is invincible in the air, but once it is entangled, it loses its greatest support and can only be slaughtered.
He struggled desperately in the vine net, and his fierce strength seemed to drag the professionals holding the net into the sky.
This can be achieved, but they cannot accumulate strength in a short period of time. As long as they accumulate enough strength, they can fly into the sky in an instant.
This team of professionals took advantage of this short time difference and released various skills without hesitation, directly capturing the Golden Roc in a special iron cage.
The greatest value of Jinpeng lies in flying.
This is the most popular flying magical beast in the human kingdom. After being captured, it can be tamed and then sold at a high price.
Of course, the Golden Roc is very proud, and there are very few cases of successful taming. But once it is tamed, the rewards are extremely high, which is why countless people flock to it.
Maria is the captain of this team.
Looking at the three living golden rocs that had been successfully captured, Maria showed a slight smile on her face.
Catching these three made the trip worthwhile.
Maria is preparing
"What's wrong?" Maria frowned. The investigators ran back, so something must have happened.
"There is a team coming towards us from the south. There are more than 200 people, including orc guards!" Charles, one of the scouts, said hurriedly, with a hint of anxiety in his voice.
What concerned them were the orcs.
Everyone knows how powerful orcs are. Because of their power, they are never polite to humans, and those who can recruit orcs to do things are basically not simple people.
Their team finally got the chance to capture Jin Peng, so they had to seize the opportunity. If they were confused by this team, they would suffer a great loss. They had spent a lot of gold coins for this opportunity.
Maria listened, her brows furrowed even more.
Orcs are indeed a trouble!
Being able to control a team of orcs is even more troublesome!
"Did they send any scouts?" Maria continued to ask.
"No." Charles shook his head, "But they have also noticed our movements and are heading towards us."
Maria listened, looked in the direction where Charles and the others came from, and sensed carefully.
Maria was stunned by this feeling and her expression suddenly changed.
"Captain? What's wrong?" Seeing Maria's shocked expression, the others became alert.
"I sensed that there are more than two hundred magicians coming over there, which means that almost the entire opponent's team is made up of magicians." Maria said in surprise.
The composition of this team is really generous!
Although there are no magicians of very high levels, basically everyone one is one.
What kind of team is this???
"So many!" Charles exclaimed in shock, and then suggested: "Should we retreat as soon as possible?"
It doesn’t matter if they can’t catch Jin Peng next time, but they must make sure the one they catch doesn’t get robbed!
Maria exhaled lightly, and after a while, she pursed her lips and said, "The people coming from this direction may be heading for our town. Since they are heading for our town, there is a small chance that they are here to cause trouble."
The next moment, Maria ordered the team to continue capturing Jin Peng.
It took a lot of effort to attract their attention, but we can’t let them go!
They have to worry about other teams in the town of Benguela, but they don't have to worry about the teams coming from outside for the time being.
It was also at this time that Zhou Bai, surrounded by the orc NPCs beside him, entered the sight of Maria and others!
Maria
This was the scene Zhou Bai saw when he arrived.
Meeting Maria's vigilant gaze, Zhou Bai spoke from a distance, "We are just passing by!"
