In front of Xingxun City, three hundred miles away from the southeast fortress where the Warrior Temple is located, the heads of the two demon hunting groups decided to stay here temporarily to rest after a brief discussion.
In fact, this is already the sphere of influence of the Warrior Temple.It's just that they didn't intend to go to the southeast fortress guarded by the Warrior Temple to rest and recuperate, but chose to rest here for a while, and then directly entered the demon territory.
At the same time, Holy City, the second floor of the Demon Hunt Mission Tower.
"Deacon Li, what did you say?" The former staff member who had received the two demon hunting groups, Yue Chen and Long Haochen, was looking at the white-haired old man standing in front of him in shock.
"Hurry up and get rid of the exploration mission I posted here almost half a month ago." The white-haired old man said out of breath: "According to the latest news, there is a high possibility that there will be eight or nine levels of Super Warcraft."
There may even be some ancient ruins inside.Therefore, the difficulty of the task has increased sharply, and the exploration reward will be increased to 20 merits. At the same time, this task will be launched on the third floor, which can only be accessed by king-level demon hunting groups. "
"A king-level mission?" The staff was shocked when they heard the words, "But this mission has already been taken by two general-level demon hunting teams."
"What? Has it been picked up?" The white-haired old man said in disbelief: "This is a mission that has to penetrate more than 2000 miles into the interior of the Demon Race. How long did it take to be picked up?"
After learning that the task had been taken away for nearly ten days, and there was no time to recover the two general-level demon hunting groups, the white-haired old man also said anxiously and angrily: "What should we do? Aren't the two general-level demon hunting teams going to die for this mission?"
"Tell me quickly, what are the strengths of those two general-level demon hunting teams." The white-haired old man asked eagerly.
After listening to the staff's introduction, this Deacon Li's complexion also became more and more ugly. Why is there a new demon hunting team here?
"Right now, we can only hope that the veteran general-level demon hunting team can find out what is wrong as soon as possible, and choose to give up the mission and return to the Holy City."
Deacon Li pinched the center of his brows with a headache and said: "This time it was our mistake. After the two demon hunting teams return, we should give each of them a reward of [-] meritorious deeds as compensation."
……
After the room was opened in the hotel in Xingxun City, the members of the two newly recruited demon hunting groups, who had been exhausted for many days, immediately returned to their respective rooms to rest.
When they entered the territory of the demons, they would not have the opportunity to rest at ease like they do now, and it would not be over until the end of the mission and returning to the Temple Alliance.
Sitting on the bed and entering the state of meditation to adjust his state, Yue Chenzheng had a sad expression on his face, not knowing how to arrange the follow-up matters.
Suddenly, the sound of two men talking came into his ears.
Is the sound insulation of this hotel room so bad?Yue Chen frowned immediately when he heard this, he heard these two people talking so quietly, then what if...
Eh?
Yue Chen, who was in a state of meditation, closed the player communication channel on the panel that he had been opening almost all day long, and the conversation between the two men stopped abruptly.
Yue Chen was taken aback for a moment, then immediately opened the player communication channel again.If I remember correctly, the person sleeping in the room next to him should be Bai Xiaoxing, the plant summoner, the most normal magician in Long Haochen's demon hunting team, right?
In the next room, Gandalf and Bai Xiaoxing were sitting opposite each other, chatting about something.
"There's something wrong with the script of this world." Bai Xiaoxing frowned, and suddenly turned to Gandalf and said, "According to reason, the one who is going to carry out this mission with us should be Long Haochen's sister, where Li Xin works. The No. [-] Demon Hunting Squad of the Sergeant Class is right."
"Does it matter?" Gandalf put his head in his hands and replied casually: "Now the two thickest thighs of the All-Human Alliance are placed in front of us for us to report, and we can just wait and count the merits. "
Yue Chen: "??"
Good guy, you can see clearly.
"But there is a lack of plot propellant." Bai Xiaoxing suddenly jumped up, "If there is no No. [-], we can only go through the southeast fortress pass honestly. Then sneak in the demon territory It took nearly two months to get to the location of the Fear and Wailing Cave."
Well……
Yue Chen had long looked at Bai Xiaoxing and found it pleasing to the eye, but he didn't expect that what he said now was exactly the same as what he was worried about at this time.
"You mean?" Gandalf seemed to understand something, and immediately jumped up like Bai Xiaoxing.
"That's right..." Bai Xiaoxing nodded with a serious face.
Yue Chen: I am very pleased.JPG
"That's the free merchant." Yue Chen×Bai Xiaoxing
"Moonnight Wife!" said Gandalf.
Yue Chen×Bai Xiaoxing: "??"
"..."
"To be honest, I hope you don't care." Bai Xiaoxing suddenly stepped forward and patted Gandalf on the shoulder, and then said earnestly, "Your wife Yueye is a face control."
Of course I'm not saying you're ugly, I mean your chances are slim. "Bai Xiaoxing coughed twice, and when he realized that the atmosphere was not right, he quickly changed the subject.
"Let's not talk about Yueye's wife first, let's talk about the most important thing at the moment." Bai Xiaoxing explained: "The danger of going directly to the Fear and Sorrow Cave through the Southeast Fortress is too high, and it will definitely take a lot of time. Multiplied, which is something neither of us wants to see."
Yue Chen: "+1..."
"However, just as you said, we are now partnering with General No. 21. Instead of Sergeant No. [-], isn't this road already blocked?"
Gandalf asked back with some doubts, he still didn't know exactly what Bai Xiaoxing's purpose was for calling him to his room.
"It's true that this road is broken, but what are we?" Bai Xiaoxing seemed to be afraid that Gandalf would say something strange again, so he hurriedly said, "We are players."
"Although this road has been cut off due to an uncontrollable factor like Yue Chen, we can connect it up." Bai Xiaoxing said, "It's just wandering merchants, so we can't get in touch with them by ourselves. Like their hitchhikers."
Yue Chen: "!!"
Guys, isn't this just when someone handed you a pillow when you dozed off?

"I understand what you mean." Gandalf suddenly realized.
"It's not too late. We have to find the free trader's team before the team is ready and set off, and deal with them well."
Bai Xiaoxing changed into a slightly plain commoner clothes, and motioned for Gandalf to change like himself.
After that, the two stopped using the communication channel to communicate, and Yue Chen never heard a single sound from the next door.
The sound insulation effect is not bad...
The two of you have to work harder, it's not in vain that I bring your general No. 22 with me when I do this task, Yue Chen thought to himself.
You must know that the follow-up rewards of this mission and the gains during the mission are completely unimaginable to them at this stage. Yue Chen had indeed planned to take the mission by himself before.
Although the No. 21 general-level demon hunting team he leads is also a new demon hunting team, there is nothing wrong with that.But he also has great confidence that he can fool other people's staff to give this task to his team to take it.
……
After changing into common clothes, Bai Xiaoxing and Gandalf sneaked out of the hotel, and went outside to ask the local residents of Xingxun City about the wandering merchants.
Because the two are foreigners, the local residents in Xingxun City don't like them very much.
If it weren't for the fact that both of them look harmless to humans and animals, the residents here would probably regard them as spies infiltrated by the demons and send them to the local government of Xingxun City for review. .
After all, Xingxun City is also one of the human cities closest to the border of the Demon Race. Is there a problem with the tough folk customs here?
After the two searched hard, they finally found one of the largest business groups among the free merchant groups in the entire Holy Demon Continent, the base of the Moon Night Merchant Group in Xingxun City.
The two who searched for nearly two days in Xingxun City without eating or drinking were standing at the door of the Moon Night Merchant Group's stronghold, and they suddenly said with tears in their eyes: "Finally found it."
"It's not too late, let's go in and talk to them now." Gandalf patted his ashen face, stepped forward, and pushed open the door of the Moonlight Merchant Group.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaoxing had no choice but to follow. At first, he was thinking about whether he should find some excuse so that the convoy of the Moon Night Merchant Group would be willing to pick up a dozen of them.
The white-haired old man who was sitting behind the counter flipping through the ledger suddenly heard a noise, and looked up at the two people who were pushing the door.
"The beggars go to the backyard by themselves." The old man said casually, and then continued to look at the ledger in front of him.
Gandalf × Bai Xiaoxing: "??"
Noticing that the two were not moving, the white-haired old man also raised his head again, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and carefully looked at the two standing in front of him with censoring eyes.
"Didn't you two come here to beg for food?" The old man asked in a hesitant tone.
"Of course not." Bai Xiaoxing hurriedly raised his hand to hold down Gandalf, who almost didn't jump up, but said very politely: "Old man, the two of us are here to find work. I heard that your Moon Night Merchant Group is still short of The guy in charge of escorting the truck."
"It's true that there is a shortage of guys who are in charge of escorting the trucks, but..." The old man's eyes swept over the two of them, "We only recruit strong and strong men to escort the trucks, and we don't accept you little monkeys."
After being kicked out by the Moonlight Merchant Group, Gandalf and Bai Xiaoxing squatted on the steps by the side of the road with depressed faces.
"That old man is really hateful. He won't eat hard and soft." Gandalf said angrily, "And why is the wind and sand here so strong that we are still regarded as beggars by that old man."
"It seems that it is not so easy for us to hitch a ride with the Moon Night Merchant Group when we have no relationship."
Bai Xiaoxing took off his shoes, poured out the sand, and said: "And the old man also said that only local residents of Xingxun City are recruited. Otherwise, even if we are ten times stronger, it will be useless."
"Why don't we try to confess to them directly?" Gandalf seemed to have suddenly remembered something, "Just tell them that we are members of the Demon Hunt Squad who are going to perform missions in the demon territory, maybe they will It is not certain that someone is willing to take us away."
And no matter what they say, they are just businessmen. At most, they let us post some money for travel expenses. "
After listening to what Gandalf said, Bai Xiaoxing also showed a thoughtful expression, considering whether it was feasible to do so.
"What you said makes sense!" After thinking for a while, Bai Xiaoxing felt that what Gandalf said was reasonable, and immediately stood up from the steps, "We're going to settle the score with that old man now."
"Ding——" I saw a copper coin suddenly landed at the feet of the two of them, and the sound of the metal hitting the ground caught their attention instantly.
"..." After putting on the robes representing their occupations, the two of them once again opened the door of the Moonlight Merchant Group...
On the other side, the others who had rested comfortably in the hotel for two days couldn't sit still. Long Haochen also came to Yue Chen's room, and discussed with him that the team should go to Fear after passing through the Southeast Fortress. Path to Wailing Cavern.
Why haven't those two come back yet?Yue Chen said secretly in his heart.
Because it is not sure whether it is reliable to leave this matter to the two of them.Therefore, Yue Chen also had to make another preparation, planning with Long Haochen the route the team would take in the demon territory, just in case.
Although it is said that the task that these two demon hunting teams jointly performed this trip was taken by the general-level No. 22 demon hunting team that Long Haochen belonged to.But this trip was mainly focused on Yue Chen and their demon hunting team.
A team can only have one leader, otherwise conflicts will easily arise.
When it came to the selection of the team leader, the two teams also had an amazing tacit understanding. They unanimously agreed to let the most powerful Yue Chen be the leader of the team, and everything would be done according to Yue Chen's orders during the mission.
After a simple analysis by Yue Chen and Long Haochen, they estimated that it would take at least three months for the team to reach the end of the trip, the Cave of Fear and Sorrow, after leaving the Southeast Fortress.
Isn't that even the day lily is cold?Yue Chen thought to himself.
And this time is based on the fact that they will not reveal their whereabouts in the demons' territory and be hunted down by the demons' army.
"It seems that the difficulty of this task is much more difficult than we imagined." Long Haochen frowned slightly, and then immediately relaxed it, comforting Yue Chen who was sitting in front of him with a worried face: "It's really impossible. Just give up this task and go to other accepted tasks, the meritorious rewards of those tasks are also quite impressive."
Yue Chen: "..."
This is no longer a matter of meritorious deeds.
Suddenly, a series of hasty knocks on the door caught the attention of the two people sitting in the room.
"Captain Yue, it's me, Bai Xiaoxing."
After hearing the voice from outside the door, Yue Chen also hurriedly got up and opened the door, allowing Bai Xiaoxing and Gandalf who were standing at the door to come in and sit down.
"Xiao Xing? Why are you two here?" Long Haochen looked at the two people who were looking happy at this time with a puzzled expression, not knowing what they were doing in Yue Chen's room at this time.
"You are here, leader." Bai Xiaoxing was a little surprised, but said directly: "Gandalf and I have found a way to allow our two demon hunting teams to reach the mission location as safely as possible."
"Oh? Let's hear it." Yue Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked him to continue talking.
Long Haochen also had a look of surprise, he didn't expect that this trouble that has troubled him and Yue Chen for a long time would allow the two of them to find a solution.
"It's like this. In some border cities like Xingxun City in our alliance, there are a group of merchants with special identities. They are called wandering merchants."
Bai Xiaoxing explained: "These wandering merchants are engaged in the business of buying and selling on both sides of humans and demons."
For example, in our Holy League Auction, a large part of the items came from free merchants, and many of the items were brought back from the demons.Similarly, the Demon Race also needs them to obtain some resources from us.
Therefore, these wandering merchants have the right to enter and exit the human and demon territories relatively freely, which will be of great help to us who will soon be lurking in the demon territory to perform tasks. "
Hearing this, Long Haochen also reacted immediately.
"Do you mean to let our two teams mix into the team of free merchants, and use their identity as free merchants to walk in the territory of the demons?"
After receiving Bai Xiaoxing's affirmative answer, Long Haochen couldn't help asking: "But is it really safe to do so?"
Bai Xiaoxing shook his head slightly, "I can't guarantee this, but the mission we are performing now requires us to go deep into the central area of the demons, and we also need to pass through four large provinces of the demons on the way. It is already high enough. Because the goal of our dozen or so people is too big, not to mention that the search of the demons near the border must be the strictest."
"Continue talking." Yue Chen interrupted: "At least what is certain is that this is indeed a much safer method than us directly killing them through the border crossing of the Demon Race."
Bai Xiaoxing nodded, and continued: "Actually, just now, Gandalf and I have already visited the stronghold of the Free Traders stationed in Xingxun City and greeted them.
They have already agreed to take our two demon hunting teams for a ride, but we need to pay [-] gold coins per person for accompanying the team. "
"Did they already know that we are members of the Demon Hunt Squad?" Long Haochen couldn't help but said, "According to what you just said, the team of free merchants can freely enter the territories of the human race and the demon race. There are still some demons?"
"Yes. There are not only us humans, but also some demons in the team of free merchants." Bai Xiaoxing nodded and replied: "But ordinary demons are not eligible to become free merchants, only some high-level demons are eligible However, they are generally high-level executives of free merchants and business groups, and we will not have direct contact with them, and those who will contact us are basically human beings."
Seeing that Long Haochen still seemed to have concerns, Yue Chen also made an assist from the side, asking Bai Xiaoxing to tell the whole story of their communication with the free merchant.
"Although the old man didn't say it explicitly, it is equivalent to indirectly telling us that it is not the first time that a demon hunting group has entered the demon territory through free traders like us."
Yue Chen analyzed: "It is estimated that the Demon Race also dispatches spies in the same way, and it is the same as entering the Holy League through this method."
"But aren't they worried that we will cause them trouble?" Long Haochen asked.
Yue Chen shook his head lightly, "What trouble can there be? If you can easily agree to accept more than a dozen of us, the size of the business group will definitely not be small. And since free merchants can exist, they naturally have their way."
