The Great Age of Voyage of the Elves

Chapter 223 The World Is Never Gentle
There is not only perfection in this world, and it is not only Longsheng who is regretful.

The same is true of life.

Soon Sauron and the others returned, bringing back the companions they were looking for on this trip.

It's just that although the task was completed and everyone was brought back, the atmosphere was not relaxed.

"What's wrong with them?" Mu asked after taking a look.

The few companions rescued by the mercenaries were in a bad state visible to the naked eye. Several of them looked delirious, and one had dull, distracted eyes, and the corner of his mouth was drooling all the way.

Sauron hurriedly explained with a gloomy expression, but didn't say much.

"Drug addiction. Get them out first."

"it is good."

Mu naturally has no objection.

At the same time, the crew members who were still in good condition had already explored the entire underground base under his instruction.

It's called exploring, but it's actually searching.

Although Silver Company must have taken away most of the most valuable core assets before withdrawing, there are still a lot of valuable items left behind. At this time, the mercenaries are busy rescuing their companions, and Nian Meilong is also worried about the same clan. Naturally, the Black Pearl did its part and accepted them all.

It is also a worthwhile trip.

Afterwards, everyone returned to the ground with their rescued companions and their respective trophies.

The sticky dragons also followed up for the time being, but they all understood that it was time to say goodbye.

"We need to take our companions to the town for treatment as soon as possible. You should also have many crew members injured and need to be dealt with. Why don't you join us? Don't worry, no one will catch pirates in the town we went to."

Sauron opened his mouth to invite.

They are also a bit selfish in saying this: the Black Pearl's well-preserved combat power is obviously stronger than theirs, and their peers can be regarded as a kind of protection for them.

"can."

Mu did not refuse.

Many crew members do need healing, including elves.

At this time, Nian Meilong, who had already followed him, was also saying goodbye to her clan and the leader in her unique way.

"Hmph! Wait, you idiot, I'll come back sooner or later and beat you up!"

She raised her fist at the leader.

He didn't notice the slight sadness and reluctance in the other party's eyes at this time.

The leader turned around, waved his tail impatiently, and said duplicity: "If you want to leave, get out!"

"Cut~"

Due to the dullness of a certain idiot, she couldn't read the leader's mind even at parting.

So much so that Kirulian pouted aside in disgust.

Although she doesn't understand this kind of emotion, she at least recognizes the fool.

Then everyone bid farewell to Nian Meilong Qun.

They will continue to track down the whereabouts of Silver Company in the forest, hoping to rescue their companions who were taken away.

And Mu and the others took the shortest path and left the forest under the guidance of some friendly forest elves.

After returning to a small town that Sauron was familiar with, he quickly dragged people to find several folk doctors.

Hospitals are far from being popular in this era, and even big cities may not have general hospitals, let alone this remote town.

In fact, these people who came here are not serious full-time doctors, at most they are medical workers with some knowledge of herbal medicine and dressing experience, or part-time ones.

But the times are like this, it is very good to find such a person to help in a small town, and the requirements should not be too high.

Fortunately, there was Anderson in the team, who was quite skilled and experienced. All these people who came here turned into Anderson's assistants in the end.

Both the mercenary and the crew went to receive treatment one after another, and soon, the place where they temporarily stayed was filled with an unpleasant smell of blood and herbs.

For the rest of the day, even Mu joined in to help and assisted in the treatment.

Listening to the wailing and crying in the room one after another, sometimes it is really hard to believe that they were actually the one that won just now.

Fighting and plundering is always the fastest way to strengthen yourself, but it is also the most risky and costly way.

Often walking by the river would not have wet shoes. In this battle, the Black Pearl still suffered a considerable damage.

In the evening, Mu and Sauron washed their hands by the same reservoir, washing the herbs and blood on their hands.

The faces of both of them were very heavy.

This victory came at a heavy price.

"How is your crew?"

In the gloomy atmosphere, Sauron was the first to speak.

Mu sighed, "Hey...it's okay. Fortunately, no one lost their lives, but eight people were injured too badly, and they probably won't be able to return to the boat."

Everything has a price, even victory.

Those eight soldiers were so badly injured that it was impossible to recover their combat strength, and they would probably be bedridden for a short time. Taking them back to the boat to drift would only kill them completely.

In addition, more people were slandered or slightly injured.

This should be considered to be the first large-scale attrition of the Black Pearl after encountering Bogsard.

Looking at the profession of pirates, their loss rate is so low that countless people can envy and hate, but anyway, this is the first time that Mu bid farewell to the soldiers on the ship because of his own initiative.

This feeling is still sad.

Even if no one would blame him for it.

Sauron's feeling at the side was similar, even more bitter.

"Then you are lucky."

This time, their regiment lost far more than this number of people in the battle.

"What about the rescued brothers?" Mu asked again.

Mentioning this topic, Sauron's face became even more gloomy.

"It's bad. The symptoms of their drug dependence are very serious. And the company is using them to test drugs, and they are all semi-finished drugs with immature formulas that are extremely harmful to the human body. Now their physical condition is also a mess."

When Sauron said this, even the anger and hatred in his eyes faded, and they were all powerless pale and gray.

It took a huge price to rescue the fallen companions, but this is the result that I didn't expect.

For a moment, Mu could only be silent.

The world is never gentle.

Especially for fighters like them who are at the bottom.

It seems that they have the super power of elves, and they can judge the life and death of an ordinary person with a single word. In fact, every silver dollar they earn actually needs to do their best...

Pirates are like this, and so are mercenaries.

The advancement of the times seems to have given them more choices, and the elf resources originally monopolized by the aristocratic class have been gradually distributed to the people, allowing them to have the opportunity to become trainers, but in fact they still need to work hard to survive.

This has never changed...

"Have you thought about how to arrange them?" Mu asked softly.

"For now...don't know yet." Sauron replied in a daze.

As a result, at this moment, a mercenary ran over in a panic and shouted: "Captain, it's not good!!"

"What's wrong?" Sauron asked.

"Big head and their drug addiction has exploded!"
