Chapter 33 Homeless From Now on
After a fierce battle, corpses were everywhere at the entrance of the Sauron Canyon Valley and discarded weapons were everywhere.
It won't take long to see these corpses and weapons, like other relics on the battlefield, drying up and weathering with time, and you can no longer tell who they once belonged to.
Three surviving black-clothed killers searched for the mercenaries one by one. The purpose of this carefully organized assassination was certainly not as simple as killing people.
The killer leader stood alone under the cliff on one side, looking at the whistling below, standing still without saying a word.
For him, this was almost a failed action. Only three of the six groups of eighteen elite killers survived in the end, and the lost level seven ice magicians are valuable resources for any organization, and he even lost an arm.
The only thing worth comforting is that although the huge price was paid, the mission was finally completed and the difficult B-level mercenary group was destroyed.
As for Arthur who jumped from the canyon, he was not in the scope of consideration. The river surface from the ground to the cliffs of the canyon was more than ten meters high. The river water downstream was turbulent and winding, and the river was densely covered with reefs at the bottom of the river. Not to mention a little guy who had just broken through level 3, even if he jumped down, he might not have died or died, not to mention that the boy was foolishly grasping the heavy giant sword.
"Commander, the thing was not found." A black-clad killer walked behind him and whispered.
The killer leader shook his body and couldn't help but shivered.
......
Arthur didn't know why he subconsciously grabbed the giant sword at that moment?
"Anyway, if you can't swim, you will die if you jump down. It's better to take it than to fall into the hands of those killers."
"Am I dead like that?"
"What exactly is the world after death?"
These thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind the moment Arthur jumped down.
With a loud thud, Arthur smashed his head into the water, and the bones in his body seemed to be smashed, spinning, and all the thoughts in his mind were empty.
Arthur subconsciously opened his mouth and poured water in.
Arthur's hand holding the hilt of the sword still did not release, and his body quickly sank to the bottom of the water.
Arthur closed his eyes tightly, unable to breathe, and his mind was blank. Just when Arthur felt that he was about to fall into a completely coma, his body suddenly lightened and his whole body slowly surfaced.
Arthur raised his head and breathed heavily. When he opened his eyes completely, he found that not only he was floating on the river, but also the giant sword floated on the water.
To be more precise, it was because the giant sword floated up that Arthur dragged out from the bottom of the water.
"Shouldn't the metal sink to the bottom? Why did such a heavy sword float up?" Arthur was completely dizzy.
The turbulent river water rolled Arthur and his giant sword and ran downwards. The strange sword seemed to have suddenly lost its mass in the water. Arthur was easier to control in the water than on land. When encountering the rocky reef in the water, Arthur swung over from the side with a point of the sword.
"Danyang Refining God" is operating, and the body emits a hot temperature. It will not cause Arthur to lose his body temperature in the cold river for a long time.
After passing through the dangerous shoals and dark vortexes, falling down countless steep hurdles and waterfalls, when Arthur felt that his bones had broken and his body was completely numb by the water, the water began to become smooth, and Arthur finally climbed onto a flat river beach.
Arthur, who was almost soaked in the river, stood up and looked at the unfamiliar mountains around him, and he was completely confused...
......
In a peaceful period when there was no war with the orcs, the city of Huaores was a quiet small town on the border of the human kingdom.
Except for the city lord who commissioned the task of purchasing the Earth Dragon Whip to cope with the newly married concubine, the "Blood-thorn" Tristi and the "Mad Sand" Mercenary Group of Toulei took action in the Nightingale Bar to fight for a woman, there is no more gossip news.
However, the news that happened in the past two days shocked the entire Huaores City and became the focus of everyone's discussion on the streets and alleys.
The strongest "Blue Magic" mercenary group in the city, the leader of the regiment, Cairns, led almost all the main forces of the mercenary group to take on a mysterious mission more than a month ago, and has not returned yet. Just the night before, the headquarters of the "Blue Magic" was burned into broken walls by a fire. No mercenary in the entire mercenary group ran out, and all the bodies were burned to pieces and difficult to distinguish.
There was no trace left at the scene, and the wound could be barely identified from the burnt corpse. Almost everyone was a fatal sword at the critical moment. The murderer set fire after killing everyone.
The City Lord's Mansion and the Mercenary Union both issued huge bounty tasks, hunting down the murderers of the "Blue Virgin" headquarters and arson case.
Two days have passed and no clues have been found.
Although there was no clue, many old mercenaries had already guessed that the "Blue Demon" mission must have accused of a terrible enemy. Although Cairns did not come back, he would never come back.
Not to mention the B-level mercenary group in the small border town of "Blue Magic", in the long history of the mainland, it is not uncommon for S-level super mercenary groups and even wealthy families to be uprooted overnight because they are not supposed to be attacked.
"Blue Virgin", a mercenary group that rose rapidly like a comet with a mysterious color, fell rapidly like a comet.
Half a month later, no matter how big the news was, it turned into old news. After dinner, few people mentioned this massacre.
A heavy rain that had accumulated for several days finally fell, and a ragged boy ran into the city at the last moment when the city gate was about to close.
Arthur, who had been in the Orlando Mountains for a month, finally returned home.
Home, in three years, Arthur had already regarded the mercenary group as his home. Cairns, Randle, Adeline, Tony... are all his family.
Although Captain Cairns and Adeline died in battle, Randall and Tony were still there and his home was still there. He wanted to tell Randall about what happened in Sauron Canyon.
It was this belief that supported Arthur, which made him endure hunger and invade wild animals, and finally walked out of the mountains after endless suffering!
But when Arthur realized that the charred rubble and stone pile in front of him was the headquarters of the mercenary, he turned black and fell to the ground.
The home is gone! The belief that has always supported him is gone!
At this moment, Arthur was really confused. He was the only one who survived the entire mercenary group. Where would he do?
In the night rain, the boy could no longer control his emotions and started crying loudly.
Since he was caught in the orc camp and got used to death, Arthur hasn't cried for many years. However, tears gushed out uncontrollably at this moment, and tears mixed with rain kept flowing down.
Chapter completed!
