Gold coin is justice

Chapter 26 The Guard

As an adventure, today is not a good day.

After bringing the necessary food, tents, weapons, and the two bottles of healing potions, the Mermaid Song Guild closed the door and marched towards the Everrest Mountain with the team of adventurers led by Merlin.

Although it was the second time to travel to this mountain range, the heavy rain still brought a lot of trouble.Until noon of the same day, everyone came to the mine again.

It's not easy to camp outside the mine in heavy rain. After thinking about it for a while, everyone decided to stay inside the mine slightly, which is also a shelter from the rain, and adjust your state.

"Let's take a break now, and take a long rest, and we will enter the mine tomorrow morning for exploration."

Ai Luo looked at the rain outside and made his own judgment.

But a soldier of the adventurer team looked upset and said, "Tomorrow? We will be here all day today? It's still noon now, and we still have more than half a day. We have wasted a lot. Time is up, it can't be wasted."

As he said, the soldier glanced at the cream over there, his eyes looked unspeakably irritable.

Ai Luo looked at the shield on his back and said, "You are?"

"Lington Basak, they call me the Great Shield. Under my protection, every adventure is full of surprises!"

Mullard seemed quite confident, with pride that couldn't be hidden on his face.

Airo exhaled and said patiently: "Mr. Bassac, we may need a lot of time to explore the mine. Instead of having to come back halfway through the exploration because it is too late and too tired, it is better for us now. It’s not too late to get enough rest and wait until tomorrow to leave. Secondly, the rain is really too big. And it’s marked on my map. It’s basically all the way down. It’s hard to guarantee that any place might be flooded. Accidents are easy to happen. So, we'd better wait for the rain to stop before we act."

"Adventurers don't take risks!" Brad continued, looking a little cheerful, "President, am I right?"

Ai Luo is a little touched, he hasn't been taught in the book for more than half a month!

Therefore, safety always comes first.This rule must be followed even in the adventurer's industry.

But just when Aylor thought he had convinced these people and prepared to camp with peace of mind...

"If I say, we must leave now?"

The voice of speaking didn't seem so harsh, but the indisputable attitude in the tone made Airo faint.

Turning his head, I saw Mage Merlin standing there, holding a wand that looked carefully carved in his hand, and a red magic spar on the top of the wand looked brilliant.

Ai Luo was taken aback for a moment, what else he wanted to say.But suddenly I felt that the corner of my clothes was pulled by someone. Looking back, I saw that Coco was curled up behind his back, with one hand tightly pulling the dead branch, and the other hand pulling himself tightly. Corner of clothing.

"If there is no objection, then we will decide so, let's start right away. Cream, go ahead and use your abilities to help us open the way. And everyone from the Mermaid Song Guild, you fight forward, we Help you behind."

Obviously there were no words that seemed too harsh, but the words of the magician still had such an irresistible power.

Ai Luo looked at the dark mine ahead, then looked at Merlin's face with a faint smile...

"……go."

He knew that he had no choice now.

————

Just like the first time, the group of people continued to descend along the mine, and the heat in the surrounding air quickly spread.

But this time I made sufficient preparations. All the people brought water. Perhaps it was because of the timely replenishment of water. The sudden madness of Brad like the last time never happened again.

Continuing down the familiar road, the cream ahead is as cautious as the first journey.Make a mark every time you turn a corner and check whether there are any attacks or traps by monsters. After confirming, then wave your hand to let the big troops behind to keep up.

Once deep into the mine, everyone in the adventurer team seemed to be dumb, without saying a word.The four people gathered around Merlin and proceeded cautiously, without any slack.

Seeing them walking carefully, Ai Luo quietly speeded up and came to Cream who was exploring the terrain in front, pretending to be a record map, and whispered: "What happened to the two city people last time."

Cream knocked on a stone, confirmed that there was nothing unusual, then said in a low voice, "It was killed by that Merlin."

Although it was long expected that there might not be any good results, such an answer rushed into his ears, and Aylor was stunned.

Cream looked at Ai Luo's sluggish face and couldn't help but smiled bitterly: "But I still have to thank you, otherwise, I'm afraid I don't know how to die."

With that said, the thief raised his hand and pinched his neckline. With the faint light of fire, Airo saw a rope stringed necklace hanging from his neck, but the pendant was a magic spar ring?

Airo was pretty sure that there was no ring on this guy's neck when he encountered cream last time.

But he didn't ask much, just silently remembered the matter of the magic spar ring, and continued to move forward.

With the first experience, as the temperature began to drop rapidly, Airo knew that he was about to reach the bloody worm's nest.

Cream reacted one step faster. He raised his hand to stop everyone from moving forward, and walked a few steps forward alone, checking the surrounding environment.

Relying on the faint light of the fire, Cream compared Airo's map to confirm a slightly spacious area, took off his backpack, and got ready.

Although Ai Luo didn't have an intuitive feeling about the level of thieves, seeing this guy's skillful movements, he formed a handful of fragmented objects into a spiked trap in threes or twos, which made Airo a little amazed.

"(Fairy Talk) President, I want to talk to you."

While Airo was observing Cream's actions, a small voice floated in his ears.Turning his head slightly, he allowed Parfie to sit on his shoulders a little more comfortably.

"(Fairy talk) Why did you come out?"

Barphy took Airo’s ears and stood firmly, and at the same time glanced back, and whispered: "(Fairy language) I was discovered by the human magician. He has been staring at Brad hiding me since he opened it. Pocket, since he found it all, I will come out. Chairman, I have to say, I kind of hate that magician."

Ai Luo turned his head slightly, and saw that Merlin was smiling at herself now. The commercial smile naturally made Airo familiar.

"(Fairy whisper) The look in his eyes when looking at me makes me very uncomfortable. Before I met Brad, I met several of you humans, and they looked at me like this magician."

Ai Luo had no doubt about this.

The flower fairy has both mysterious and beautiful characteristics. Just one of these characteristics is enough to make ordinary humans possessive.Not to mention that this kind of creature should still be a very important alchemy material for some magicians, so it is rare to see what one naturally has in mind.

To be honest, if it wasn't for this flower fairy's ability to contribute to the guild, I am afraid I would find a way to catch her and then find a way to sell it.

"(Fairy language) I know, I will pay attention to the movement of this magician. Later, you must also remember that you must stay in step with Brad and not separate. Trust me, he will definitely protect you."

Buffy nodded with a confident face, and at the same time looked at Brad, who was also paying attention to this side. This guy's eyes were not only silly but also concerned, to say that he would use his life to protect this flower fairy Airo. Also believe.

"(Fairy Talk) President, you have to be more careful. These guys obviously use us as a shield."

After speaking, Buffy flapped his wings again and flew back into Brad's pocket. Brad raised the shield to protect the pocket with Buffy, and his eyes began to watch the surroundings vigilantly.

A shield... In fact, Ai Luo really wanted to tell this little fairy that the adventurers of the guild often did things similar to shields.Wouldn’t it feel better just to think about it?

"Well, everyone, be careful."

The cream over there was already equipped with the spike trap group. He took two steps back, took out a large piece of rags from his backpack and placed it on the side of the spike trap group. The mouse, which was obviously broken and unable to move, was carefully placed in the center of the trap array. The torch was placed in a corner that was not easy to extinguish to illuminate the trap, and he took out a needle and pierced the mouse’s back. After seeing the bleeding, they backed up with everyone and hid in the corner.

Ai Luo nodded, it seems that the thief has also considered how to use the smallest obstacle to pass through the bloody worm area.

Everyone quietly hid behind the rock and waited patiently.

The little mouse made a noise in the dark because of pain, and the blood from the wound on his body gradually spread to the depths of the cave.

As time flows slowly, the smell of excrement and urine in the air has gradually become strong.

Airo knew that what he was looking forward to had finally arrived.

Amid the flames, a bloody worm the size of two palms took the lead in showing itself.

It slowly but did not stop towards the mouse, turning a blind eye to the spike traps arranged in front.

Snapped--!

Only a crisp sound was heard, the bloody worm with its head was immediately cut open by the spike trap, and then there was a soft bang, and the foul blood in it was immediately spilled like a bomb exploded, spreading the surrounding rags. The stench of contamination is suffocating.

Airo and others are used to seeing this scene, but everyone in the team of adventurers except Merlin showed incredible expressions.Obviously, they really haven't seen this creature anywhere else.

The screams of the little mouse continued, and the second and third bloody worms continued to crawl over, and went forward and then turned into a burst of pus and blood on the spiked trap, covering the surrounding rags.

This process lasted for almost an hour, until the weak mouse finally stopped fainting, and the wound pierced by the needle gradually clotted, then everything stopped.

Cream took a torch from Airo's hand, walked carefully to the spiked trap, and waved his hand after confirming that no blood worms would come over again, and greeted everyone.

"Okay, now we put on these cloths."

The cream first picked up a piece of cloth that looked the strongest smell of shit and put it on his shoulders, which felt almost the same as the last time.

Airo frowned slightly, he picked up a piece and looked at it, confirming that the pus and blood on it had been completely solidified, and he put it on after it shouldn't get on his hair.

Everyone followed suit one by one, but the Merlin Mage slightly waved the staff in his hand. The pus and blood on the ground that should have been solidified immediately hovered as if attracted by some kind of attraction, forming a thin layer around him. Thin blood mist.

Cocoa stared at Merlin's eyes straight.

"All right." Cream exhaled, pulled out the double daggers around his waist, took a deep breath, and was about to walk towards the bloody worm area in front.

"Wait."

Airo immediately stopped him: "Next is the bloody bug area, so there shouldn't be any traps or places that need to be investigated. For safety's sake...Brad, can you take the lead? Besides, I I don’t know if these bloody worms have phototaxis, so we need to extinguish the flames for the next section of the road."

Hearing the president's order, Brad, who had been standing behind, quickly put out the torch in his hand, raised the shield and hammer, maintained the basic posture of a soldier, and headed forward without complaint.

About to enter the battle area, Coco also stretched out his hand, and the undead soldiers formed immediately, holding a rust sword behind Brad, forming a defensive formation and marching slowly.
