Age of Adepts

Chapter 77: new task

Views:

When he returned to the ground again, Greem did not have the apprehension he felt last time, but instead had a vague sense of anticipation.

All the elite apprentices in the training camp are stepping on the white bones of the fallen apprentices every step of their growth. Therefore, if Greem wants to rise quickly, he must absorb the flesh and blood of these underground fellows and strive to grow himself.

After gathering in the mission hall, the team of 9 people embarked on a dangerous underground journey again.

Matthew's accidental death and Leo's serious injury made the team members aware of the dangers of the underground world. During the short stay in the outpost camp, everyone fell into a quarrel about how to complete the task.

The injury on Leo's body still drags him down.

Of course, those flesh and blood wounds had already healed, but the other evil curses that lingered deeply in his heart made him miserable. However, after more than ten days of conditioning, he finally got rid of all the curses. However, it is very difficult for a severely damaged body to recover to its best condition in a short period of time.

Therefore, this also meant that the mission team for this underground trip lost a senior apprentice, and the quasi-Wuleo could only be used as a senior apprentice.

The lack of team strength made them lose the bravery they had last time. They became conservative and proposed to complete this task by traveling as a whole team. Although this will consume three or four times the time, it is undoubtedly the best in terms of safety.

Those underground black boys must not have the guts to raid a mission team with 3 quasi-sorcerers and 5 senior apprentices!

As soon as Isaac made this proposal, most of the senior apprentices immediately responded.

The impromptu bonfire cast a jumping light onto the faces of every team member, leaving patches of shadows on their undulating, well-defined faces. Every team member hid his expression in the shadows, and only Isaac's impassioned speech remained in the field.

"... We can't afford another reduction in strength. If there is another reduction in personnel this time, our situation will be worse next time. So it is necessary to waste some time, and this can better ensure that we can complete the task! … "

"agree!"

"I think Isaac is right!"

"agree!"

The other three senior apprentices Shila, Leander, and Bruce all quickly expressed their agreement, while Mary, the only senior apprentice who did not express her opinion, stood in the shadow of the rocky peak beyond the reach of the light of the bonfire, making no sound.

So everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn to Sabrina, who had always been the leader of the team.

Sabrina raised her head and looked around, and there was a special mechanical sound as her eyes rolled.

Compared with the last time, her head, which has obviously been transformed by mechanical witchcraft, has some subtle and weird changes. But where the changes are, where the weirdness is, no one can say clearly. That's more of a vague feeling!

Sabrina looked back, and just as she opened her mouth to announce something, a slightly unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in the temporary camp.

"If you want to form a team, you can form a team together, but Mary and I will only perform one task."

The voice was clear and firm, and everyone was surprised when they followed the sound. Because the one who spoke was the junior apprentice Greem who was not regarded as a member of the team at all.

No, it is no longer possible to call him a junior apprentice Greem, but an intermediate apprentice Greem.

Everyone didn't care about Greem's strength improvement.

In this eerie and treacherous underground world, it is difficult for senior apprentices to protect themselves in the face of danger, and a mid-level apprentice who has just been promoted may not even have the ability to escape the aftermath of the battle of the strong. Therefore, everyone's discussion just now has always excluded him.

Mary, who was hiding in the darkness, still didn't say a word, obviously acquiescing to this matter. And this undoubtedly confuses everyone even more.

"Are you sure you know what you're talking about?" Sabrina's slightly low and weird voice sounded in the arena. Although there was no threat in the words, an inviolable and domineering momentum was undoubtedly revealed.

"Boy, you just stay on the sidelines. There is no room for you to speak here. If you really want to act alone, then you go to the deepest cave!" Isaac was not so reserved, and roared full of threats .

"Okay, let's go to the deepest cave!" Greem replied cleanly.

"You... what did you say?" A surprised expression appeared on Isaac's face.

"I said that Mary and I will go to complete the mission in the farthest cave, and we will return directly to the wizard's tower after we finish. You can go through the other 4 mission points slowly!"

"you… "

Not to mention Isaac this time, even the other two quasi-witches raised their heads, and once again carefully looked at this brash middle-level apprentice. But no matter how they detected and sensed, the mental fluctuations fed back by this young boy were very weak, not at all like some expert in disguise.

Is he relying on something or is there something weird about that Mary in red

The answer could not be found on Greem, and everyone couldn't help turning their attention to Mary in the shadows.

Hmph, this bastard who pretends to be a ghost, uses me as a cover every time!

Mary was roaring crazily in her heart, but on the surface, she was still calm and serene. But under the protection of the hazy blood-colored fluorescence, it is difficult for the three quasi-shamans to see through her strength through the protection of blood-line witch power.

"Is that what you mean?" Although Sabrina was sitting, a bullying momentum had already rolled towards Mary.

"Yes! Give us the quest items!"

Mary stepped out of the shadows, spread out her white and tender right hand, and faced Sabrina, the quasi-witch.

After a long silence, a magic wand-shaped witchcraft prop was thrown into Mary's hand.

Mary checked the authenticity of the props attentively, nodded in satisfaction, put away the props, turned around and walked towards the winding and deep tunnel ahead.

"Wait a minute! This is for you too."

This time Sabrina threw a crystal ball.

After Mary inspected it intently, her beautiful face froze for a moment, and she nodded at Sabrina with confusion.

"Thank you! I owe you a favor." After saying that, he didn't say any more, and brought Greem into the darkness in the distance.

The right side of Sabrina's face exposed outside the half-silver mask showed no expression at all, only the left pupil transformed into a mechanical prosthetic eye continuously emitted a scorching light.

"Let's go too! There is still a long way to go."

After a long time, Sabrina's deep voice finally sounded again.

But at this moment, Greem and Mary were already traveling through the pitch-black underground world.

For the first time, the summoned crocodile hunter swallowed the two of them together, and then sank into the dark and dull soil, walking through dark caves one after another according to the direction indicated by the witchcraft props. Between tunnels.

It's a good thing Mary isn't an overly fat guy. On the contrary, after hugging Mary into his arms, Greem felt that she was a little too delicate and soft. But the tentacles feel warm and smooth, and there is a hint of fragrance in the dark, which feels great.

There is no way, the space that the puppet can vacate is limited, and the two of them can only squeeze inside with a gesture of embracing each other.

The posture of the two of them at this moment may be too charming and charming in the eyes of outsiders, but Greem has no luck at all. Because Mary's ten sharp and sharp nails were constantly moving on his back, and her sharp and terrifying canines were also resting on his neck. If Greem had any evil intentions, with Mary's nature of acting faster than thinking, it would definitely leave him with a deep memory that will never be erased!

Cough, this may be the personal code of conduct that Mary has always followed: I'm flirting with you, it's okay. If you dare to act rashly, I will make you unforgettable!

Although the two were intertwined, Greem grinned his teeth, fearing that if one of them couldn't control it, it would bring him an unwarranted disaster. Fortunately, there are still many things that can distract him, so when his mind sank into the special field of vision of the crocodile hunter, he forgot the embarrassment in front of him, and instead concentrated on controlling the stealth direction of the puppet.

The crystal ball that Sabrina threw to Mary before leaving stored the route she found out during her last inspection, as well as the distribution of underground creatures and monsters that might be encountered along the way.

With this clear three-dimensional map, coupled with the chip's fine-grained direction control, the crocodile hunters will go through holes all the way, and when they encounter rock walls, they will choose to pass through the soil layer. Only when you encounter a large area of solid rock formations will you consider taking a long detour.

So the last time Sabrina took 27 hours to arrive at the mission location, Greem actually ran there in 4 hours.

A figure emerged from a dark and quiet small cave, and Greem jumped off the crocodile with Mary in his arms.

Using props to confirm the location of the task point again, it was less than 200 meters away from where they were, and the two were relieved, but they immediately raised their vigilance.

Those underground black bastards are full of weird and magical skills, who knows if they will set up some trigger traps near the mission point. Once they are aware of their whereabouts, the subsequent return journey will be ten times and a hundred times more dangerous.

But Greem remained calm about this.

Because of today's trip, in addition to completing the mandatory tasks given by the wizard tower, he also has another more important task to complete.

Training Camp Elite Missions!

In addition to snatching rare underground resources, even in daily life, the elite wizard apprentices of both sides would try every means to attack and kill the opponent's apprentice team whenever they had the opportunity.

Deeper underground, there are not only rare resources, but also various special metal ores that are rarely seen in the surface world. However, most of these mines and resource points are controlled by fallen wizards, and each place is guarded by an apprentice team of 5 to 10 people.

And Greem's elite apprentice mission today is: Raid the No. 7 mine pit!
