Originally, Annuo thought that there were only mercenaries from the Black Widow Mercenary Group.

But unexpectedly, while he was talking to Mavis, two more groups of people came over.

Judging from their uniforms, they are members of the Bloodstain Mercenary Group and the Fanglang Mercenary Group.

“They are here too!”

Mavis curled her lips and explained to An Nuo: "The Adventurer's Guild has been in the spotlight too much recently, and the interests of many people have been involved. The two families may very well cause trouble for you without knowing the situation!"

"Looking for trouble with me?"

An Nuo smiled nonchalantly, turned his head to look at Mavis, and said with a smile: "If we talk about touching interests, your Black Widow Mercenary Group should also be affected, right? Don't you plan to cause trouble for me?"

“Tsk~!”

Mavis rolled her eyes at An Nuo in a coquettish way and said unhappily, "You are pretending to be confused!"

When the two met for the first time, Mavis hinted to Anno that the Black Widow Mercenaries were related to Viscount Renault.

In the subsequent battles, Mavis's men fought side by side with the guards and never retreated.

The Black Widow Mercenaries are clearly on the Viscount's side.

Annuo clearly knew that both parties were now involved with Viscount Renault and belonged to the same camp, but he still deliberately said such words to tease her.

Besides, with Anno's strength, Mavis wouldn't dare to cause trouble for him.

Mavis didn't even bother to pay attention to this person.

So bad!

The leader of the Bloodstain Mercenary Group is Freeman, a level 10 warrior, a sturdy middle-aged man with red hair.

When Freeman saw Anno, his face instantly darkened.

Because of Sharp's incident, the reputation of the Bloodstain Mercenary Group has greatly declined.

Many clients are no longer willing to entrust the Bloodstain Mercenary Group.

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Bloodstain Mercenary Group.

In contrast to the Bloodstain Mercenaries is the Adventurer's Guild, which is gaining popularity.

Now some of the reserve members in the mercenary group have expressed their intention to quit the group and register as adventurers.

Now that I see An Nuo, it’s not like they are enemies meeting and they are extremely jealous of each other, but it’s not far from it.

"snort!"

After Freeman came over, he snorted coldly, indicating that he didn't want to communicate with Anno, and continued to lead his men to the front of the convoy.

The captain of the Garo Mercenary Group is a level 10 hunter, Charlie, a gray-haired, bearded uncle.

As the top-ranked mercenary group in Valkham, there are 150 professionals above level 6 in the group!

The strength of Charlie's team is ranked fifth among the fifteen teams of Garo.

Although they were in competition with the Adventurer's Guild, Charlie did not show it like Freeman did. Instead, he smiled and greeted Anno.

"President An Nuo, I finally get to meet you in person today!"

"Captain Charlie is here, so I guess I'll just be a bystander in this mission!"

Although An Nuo doesn't know Charlie, he has the [Five Visions Universal Power].

Charlie was stunned when Anno called his name.

He also thought that An Nuo had investigated him privately.

After chatting for a few meaningless words, the two separated.

Croft's fleet was also ready at this time.

After the whole team was integrated, they set off.

In addition to Anno, Liz and thirty mercenaries, the convoy also included dozens of Croft's men, all of whom were ordinary people.

Anno compared the three mercenary teams and found that Charlie's team was the strongest!

Except for Charlie, the lowest level of the team members is 8, there are two at level 9, and Charlie himself is at level 10.

Mavis' team, besides herself who is level 10, includes one level 9, two level 8s, and the rest are level 6 and 7.

As for Freeman's team, its strength is even stronger than Mavis's team.

Two are level 9, three are level 8, and the rest are level 7!

Such a team configuration is indeed luxurious for an escort mission.

On the road, Anno and Liz rode the same wind wolf and walked in the middle of the caravan.

Liz hugged Annuo's waist and rubbed her face against his back.

Because Liz's wings are now small and thin and have not yet fully developed, they are tucked behind her back with only a slight bulge, which does not make people think that they are wings at all.

As for the pair of hooves, they were wrapped tightly before going out, and outsiders could not see them at all.

As long as Liz doesn't take off her hood and reveal her demon horns, no one will know that she is a demon.

While Liz was enjoying herself, someone suddenly interrupted her happy moment.

"It's that woman!"

Liz looked at Mavis who was approaching, her eyes full of resentment.

Mavis felt an inexplicable hostility. She looked at Liz, who was wearing a huge hood, in confusion, not understanding what she had done wrong.

An Nuo also looked at Mavis with some confusion and asked, "What's the matter?"

Mavis rode up to An Nuo and asked, "An Nuo, you should have realized that there are so many of us here, it can't be for an escort mission!"

Hearing this, An Nuo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Any special mission?"

"It's not a special mission, but don't tell me that you're only here for an escort mission!"

After Mavis said this, Anno understood.

"Forbidden Forest?"

Mavis nodded and said softly, "Yes, the Viscount commissioned our mercenary group to investigate the forbidden forest as detailed as possible.

Freeman and Charlie should have also received such a task.

Since you are also planning to go to Gruul Town, the Adventurer's Guild must have received it!"

An Nuo nodded in affirmation.

"I don't need to tell you how dangerous the Forbidden Forest is. A mercenary team entered it before, but only one managed to escape!"

Mavis said solemnly: "It must be dangerous to explore the forbidden forest with the strength of a small team!"

As she spoke, Mavis glanced at the man in black robe who had been standing behind Anno.

The aura fluctuation of this man in black robe is at level 10. Not only does he work on missions with An Nuo, but the two of them also seem to have a very close relationship.

The most important thing is that this man in black robe has been following Annuo since the town of Gruul.

An Nuo pinched his chin and said thoughtfully: "So?"

"joint!"

Mavis pointed at the other two mercenary groups that were approaching and said, "I'm a thief. I can explore the way. If we encounter an enemy, we can all work together to solve it. If we explore together, our safety can be greatly improved!"

Mavis made this suggestion because she actually wanted to curry favor with Anno.

When Annuo was named a hero for his achievements, the top leaders of the three major mercenary groups began to doubt Annuo's achievements.

Although everyone who returned from the town of Gruul testified for Anno, many people just didn't believe it.

Although An Nuo's strength has improved, he was only level 8 when the battle ended.

If someone with such strength can kill dozens of monsters above level 6, including those at levels 8 and 9, doesn't this mean that the others are trash?

Or does this so-called summoner profession not only allow one to kill monsters above their own level, but also allow one to fight against dozens of high-level monsters alone?

Therefore, they suspected that Annuo's record of killing monsters in the town of Gruul was greatly exaggerated.

But as a person who had experienced it, Mavis had personally experienced how powerful those monsters were when they attacked, and how powerless she felt as her teammates fell one by one.

Although Annuo's breath fluctuations only seem to be level 8.

But Mavis knew that this was definitely a big shot.

Moreover, Mavis had another guess.

If An Nuo's strength is really not as strong as the rumors say, then the man in black robe behind him may be the one who truly changed the situation of the battle that night.

In Mavis's opinion, the combination of Anno and the man in black robes is no weaker than any of the three mercenary teams.

It might even be stronger!

It feels more reassuring to go on the Forbidden Forest mission with An Nuo.
