The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 39: Arcane Eyes and Orcs

Views:

Among these four people, three were dressed as warriors, wearing mail armor and holding long swords, while the other one was wearing a loose cloth robe and holding a finely carved wooden staff in his hand. He seemed to be a mage.

As the rarest and most powerful type of person in the entire continent, this mage inherited the common problem of all his colleagues. He looked at the three mercenaries in front of him with a arrogant look. When he saw the sexy figure wearing leather armor, When he touched Vera, a trace of lust clearly flashed in his eyes.

Kordak noticed the mage's gaze, he frowned, and his evaluation of the four people was immediately lowered. However, in this situation, he did not have an attack. After all, it is absolutely unwise to offend a mage easily. of.

"Hello, brave mercenaries. We are the duty team of the Arcane Eyes Association. We saw the smoke here and thought something might have happened, so we rushed over." A soldier wanted to go to Kordak and others. He said after a salute.

"It turns out that we are friends of the Mystical Eye, and we are members of the Mercenary Alliance." Kordak returned the greeting.

"With all due respect, were you holding a funeral for your companions just now?" the soldier asked again.

"Yes, unfortunately, my companion was attacked by orcs in the forest. He fought bravely and died gloriously." A trace of sadness flashed on Kordak's face.

"I'm sorry for what happened to you." The soldier took off his helmet to express his condolences: "Our duty team also accepted the order from the headquarters and came to Yesong Forest to eliminate the orcs."

"What?"

"Yes, a few days ago one of our stations near Yege Forest was destroyed. The evidence at the scene showed that it was all done by orcs, and then the headquarters received news that orcs were infested in Yege Forest. So the headquarters received news that orcs were present in Yege Forest. We were sent here to clean up the orcs. Of course, with the strength of a few of us, we can only be responsible for investigation, and naturally there are other large forces to do the clearance work." The soldier explained.

The fact that the station was destroyed has spread in Falling Star City. Although it is not a big deal, it is obvious that the Secret Eyes, as one of the four major forces in the Eastern Continent, cannot tolerate any provocation, even by foreigners.

So this group of mages with high eyes sent out their own duty teams to sweep away Yege Forest.

In fact, the orcs sent five teams to Yesong Forest, and Vera and the others only met one of them.

Thinking of this, Kordak and others couldn't help but feel a little scared. If the duty team hadn't carried out meticulous cleaning in the forest, Kordak's earth-shattering roar might have attracted another group of orcs on the night of the full moon. This must be Wei. It was something that neither La nor Regna could handle.

"So that's it. If you could have come here a few days earlier, I think my companion would not have died." Kordak's eyes dimmed, but he also knew that Silenos' death was not to blame. On their heads, and after knowing the purpose of the duty team coming here, his hostility towards the four members of the Mystic Eyes also weakened a bit.

"The orcs here should have been cleaned up by our team, but please be more careful in the forest. Because the night before yesterday, we heard the earth-shattering roar of the Warcraft. It sounded like a werewolf, but because it was with the orcs It doesn't matter much, so we ignored it." The soldier reminded enthusiastically.

"Oh, really? Haha, thank you for reminding me." Kordak looked stern. He looked at Vera and Regnar, who looked a little strange, and then asked: "Have you captured the orc prisoners? I I’m curious as to why they suddenly appeared here.”

"Unfortunately, the fighting will of this group of orcs is terrifyingly tenacious. We don't have the energy to capture them alive, so we don't know why they appear here." The soldier shook his head.

"That's it. No matter what, thank you for everything you did in Yesong Forest. We have completed our mission and now we have to go back to deliver the work." Kordak saw that the mage kept glaring at Vera, knowing that he would not do it again. Something might happen if you stay here, so be prepared to leave as soon as possible.

"I..." The mage was about to say something, but suddenly his body shook, and he swallowed the words before he spoke. He looked at the warrior who was speaking, but found that he didn't seem to notice him at all.

"Okay, I think we have to stay here for two more days, so let's say goodbye. I wish you a safe journey." The soldier nodded.

Kordak and the warrior waved their hands, turned around and left with Regna and Vera.

"Gulan, we have obviously completed the mission and still want to go back? Why not let them come with us?" The mage said to the soldier who was talking to Kordak just now, his tone still with a touch of arrogance.

"Idiot!" Although he is a warrior, Gulan did not show enough respect when facing this mage, and even seemed very rude: "Don't think that I don't know your thoughts, are you with them? I'm afraid Have you fallen in love with the woman in their team?"

"So what? That kind of top quality is rare to see. If I can have something with her on the way, it would be worth it!" The mage's face turned red. It was obvious that Gulan's rudeness made him a little angry.

"Is it worth more than your life?" Gu Lan asked coldly.

"What did you say? It is their honor to be favored by the mage! What does it have to do with my life?" The mage reiterated his identity.

"Put away your pitiful glory. If you weren't of low ability, how could you be assigned to an errand-running place like the duty team? Mage? Humph."

Gulan felt very contemptuous of his superiority as a mage. He continued: "If you were not blind, you should have seen clearly what happened the night before yesterday. What did that tall man drink? You third-rate person." The mage should also understand. Although his own strength is weaker than mine, it is another matter if you include his outrageous recovery ability. Besides, there is no need for the three of us to fight for your trivial desires. . If you really angered them, then face their anger alone! In fact, I am very curious whether you, as the proud son of heaven, are capable of facing the three of them?"

"You!" The mage was extremely angry at Gulan's unabashed humiliation. His face turned the color of pig liver, but he could not do anything.

As Gu Lan said, if he hadn't been of low ability, how could he have been assigned to the duty team? Low-level mages may be valuable in other places, but in Eye of Secrets they can undoubtedly only play a low-level role.

"Are you unhappy? You can give me a blow when I charge into the battle, but I hope you must kill me, otherwise I will make your life worse than death!" Gu Lan said viciously. To be honest, he can It felt really good to trample and humiliate a mage under his feet. Then he turned his head and said to another warrior: "Check out the details of that man when you go back."

Gu Lan is not the strongest person in their team, but he is the most thoughtful in the team. The reason why he dares to humiliate this mage so unscrupulously is because he has the handle of this mage. And now, he felt like he had found another very useful information.

"You said they might have known that you had taken Moonfall?" Vera was a little surprised.

After confirming that he was completely rid of the four members of the Mystic Eyes, Kordak also expressed his worries to his companions.

"They rushed over this morning when they saw the smoke from the burning. How could they remain indifferent after listening to the roar all night the night before? The soldier just mentioned what happened the night before yesterday just to confirm what happened that night. "Is it because of me? I didn't expect that I didn't react at the time. I'm afraid he will see the flaw this time." Kordak smiled bitterly.

"So what? I think, boss, you are quite normal except for the day when the full moon is a bit scary." Regnar was a little disapproving and thought it was no big deal for Kordak to drink the Sunken Moon.

"Maybe you won't care, but no one can guarantee that the people in Meteor City won't care. Can they accept it when they know that the guys living around them may turn into bloodthirsty monsters?" Kordak asked.

"..." Regnar couldn't answer. In fact, he felt a little uneasy being with Kordak these two days. Although he completely trusted Kordak, Kordak's performance on the full moon night really made him feel a little uneasy. He felt fear.

"Then what's their purpose?" Vera was worried about Kordak.

Kordak showed a comforting smile: "Don't worry, I have seen the badges on their clothes, and they are indeed from the Eyes of the Mystery. I, Kordak, think that I am pretty good in the mercenary world of Falling Star City." I am a human being, but if I want a terrifying organization like the Eye of the Secret to spend time dealing with me, I am definitely not qualified."

When he said this, Kordak glanced at Regnar intentionally or unintentionally. There is no doubt that Regnar will be inseparable from the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild in the future, so will the Secret Eyes use itself to threaten Leigna? Genna, and then make a fuss about the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild? Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem to make sense...

"It should be just an accidental discovery." Kordak thought for a long time and finally could only come to this conclusion.

"Boss, do you want me to find a chance to kill them?" Regnar suddenly took out his dagger and said with a fierce look. To be honest, after killing four orcs, his confidence was a little overwhelming. He had also noticed it when the mage looked at Vera with his squinting eyes just now, and now he knew that the warrior had Kordak's handle in his hand, which made Regnar's view of the Eye of the Mystic Magic instantly become very bad. few. So he felt that in this case it was time for him to show off what a powerful thief should be able to do, kill four humans? What a joke!

Both Kordak and Vera looked at Regna with excitement.

"Xiao Lei..." Vera hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Regnar was puzzled.

"..." Kordak was silent for a moment. After a while, he said seriously to Regnar: "Xiao Lei, I am very grateful for your concern for me. However, this matter is far from causing death. At this point, your idea... is a bit dangerous."

"Boss..." When Kordak said this, Regnar was also surprised that since when had he been able to judge the life and death of others so easily

"Killing makes people lose themselves easily. I hope your eyes will not be blinded by blood. I will supervise you." Kordak said slowly while staring at Regnar.

"Boss... thank you."

"It's not as serious as you think. Let's go home."
