After about fifteen minutes, Benjamin lifted the spell. The entire giant ice tomb flew away like bubbles in the dark night, turned into water elements, and returned to this silent forest.
Edmund led several other mercenaries to guard the edge. Suddenly, he felt a cold wind mixed with a strange smell blowing towards his face, and he couldn't help but shiver.
When they looked up again, the spectacular giant tomb had disappeared.
Seeing this scene, they were all stunned.
"My lord...have you dealt with them already?"
They hesitated and walked inside. I saw that after experiencing the baptism of the giant ice tomb, the camp that was originally dense with vegetation was left with only a heavy air of death. Hundreds of corpses were scattered throughout it, so densely packed that it made one's scalp numb.
Not only that, every corpse inside is like a frozen corpse dug out of a glacier, with its torso covered with frost. Edmund kicked twice, feeling like he was kicking an iron plate.
Following this, the mercenaries also showed a look of fear on their faces.
Is this... the power of magic
However, when it came to magic, they also thought of the four mages who followed them in the camp. So, they searched towards the center, and finally found the four familiar corpses next to the extinguished bonfire.
After moving the somewhat familiar corpse away, the mercenaries even found a large hole in the ground.
"This is… "
"They wanted to use magic to dig a tunnel and escape from the tunnel." Suddenly, a voice came from behind them, "However, the soil was frozen and was harder than granite. They tried their best and could only After drilling so many holes, he froze to death here."
The mercenaries turned around, their postures even more respectful than before: "Master Mage."
Benjamin nodded.
Looking at the corpses of those mages, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Although he did not encounter any difficulties in this battle, it was equivalent to him testing his ability. Magic of this level like the Ice Giant Tomb symbolizes a higher realm for the mage. Now, that he can maintain and control this amount of ice has proven his growth over the past few days.
Now, when he encounters a bishop-level figure, he will definitely not have to run away with his head in his arms.
However, when their eyes returned to the front, they were not yet ready to relax completely.
All six teams were wiped out, the fish that had slipped through the net were swept away, and there were no other enemies in the woods. However, outside the woods, they still had thousands of people waiting to deal with them.
In addition, there are many mercenaries hiding in the woods, wondering what is going on. Benjamin can find them and add a little more strength to his team.
"Let's tidy up this place first. It would be quite ugly to leave it all here." Thinking of this, he said, "Remember to check those people's pockets to see if there is anything gained."
Upon hearing this, the mercenaries nodded and obeyed the order without any objection.
Forgetting the corpses of other guards, those wealthy businessmen must have had a lot of money with them. Benjamin came here just for money, so how could he forget about the plan to touch the body
Just like that, they began to clear the entire battlefield. There were hundreds of corpses, and it was quite time-consuming to dispose of them. However, it was only the second day of the "Seven Days of Hell", and the people outside were unaware of it. They thought the rich were having fun here. How could they have thought that the identities of hunter and prey had been reversed
There is a lot of time left, and they can prepare slowly.
More importantly, Benjamin had to wait for reinforcements to arrive.
"etc… "
Suddenly, Benjamin looked at the body of a guard on the ground, and an idea flashed in his mind.
He reached out and took off the man's special helmet. He took the helmet in his hand and looked at it carefully, with a cunning light in his eyes.
after one day.
In the outer corner of the woods, members of the illegal mercenary organization stood there in twos and threes. They were guarding here to prevent the prey from escaping out of the woods. At this moment, they were already yawning out of boredom.
"Damn... Why is it only the third day?" a mercenary complained, "It's really annoying to have to guard this ghost place for four days. There are only more than 20 people, and those big guys can't kill people quickly. point?"
"Okay, at least you can earn a lot of money. This opportunity only comes once a year, so cherish it." Another mercenary advised.
They were whispering this, and suddenly, a lazy voice came over, interrupting their conversation.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Derek, who was probably the leader of this organization, came over and said with an unhappy expression, "Watch carefully, don't be lazy! If someone sneaks out, I want you to nice!"
The two mercenaries were stunned and immediately shrank. Although they seemed to disagree with each other's ideas in their hearts and felt that no one would come at all, it showed on their faces that they still nodded obediently and did not dare to refute.
Seeing this, Derek nodded and was about to turn around and leave.
"Wait! Is it... Sir Derek?"
However, at this moment, a man who looked like a guard ran out from the woods, panting and shouting loudly.
Derek turned around: "What's wrong?"
The guard jogged in a few steps, crossed the defense line outside the woods, no one stopped him, and finally came to Derek's side. He held his knees and breathed for a while, then slowly said: "The adults are angry now and are asking you to come in!"
As soon as he said this, Derek frowned, and the people around him also looked a little bored.
They have experienced enough of those picky guys.
"Why are you angry again?" Derek asked patiently.
"Because there are too few people in this session, the adults think it's boring to play. I want you to quickly find dozens more people and put them in the woods, otherwise you won't be given money."
When Derek heard this, he couldn't help but cursed: "These fat pigs."
The guard was a little scared, but after hesitating for a while, he still asked: "Look... let's find a dozen more people to come in."
"A dozen people, do you think they just fell from the sky? Where can I find them?" Derek spitted on the ground and shook his head, "Tell them, there are only so many people, and I can't find any more." "
The guard said: "But the adults have said that if you can't find someone, they will not only refuse to pay you, but they will also publicize your news and let you... let you..."
After hearing this, Derek's expression finally changed.
"...They actually even said such words?"
The guard nodded wincingly.
Derek sighed and was silent for a long time. The mercenaries on the side looked at this scene and couldn't help looking at each other, and they didn't dare to say anything.
"Tell me, what should we do?" the guard asked tentatively.
Derek frowned, thought for a while, and finally said: "It's impossible to find someone. Let me go and talk to them. At the worst, I can refund some money. We have been working together for so long, and we don't have any relationship at all. No."
When the guard heard this, he lowered his head and said nothing.
In this way, under the guidance of the guards, Derek slowly walked into the woods with a few followers.
