Chapter 502 Trap!
Arcot City,
“Where should we go first?”
Xia Zuo looked at this human city with some curiosity. While saying to Eric beside him.
“You are the captain, shouldn’t you be the one to make the decision?”
Eric also came to Arcot City for the first time, but he was much more stable than Xia Zuo.
This [Wrath of Nature] elf team came to Arcot City to have their mission, and the team leader is Xia Zuo.
Xia Zuo became the captain of the [Wrath of Nature] team not because of his elder who is a member of the Emerald City, but because of his own strength.
After training and improving in [Wrath of Nature] for a period of time, Xia Zuo successfully passed the test prepared by Li Si and officially became a member of [Wrath of Nature].
After being given the Mark of the World Tree by Li Si, his strength also improved significantly.
In fact, the compatibility between the World Tree Mark and the elves is really good. Basically, after being given the World Tree Mark by Li Si, all the elves have not only significantly enhanced their strength, but their progress has also become much faster.
After Xia Zuo obtained the mark of the World Tree, he quickly broke through from the silver level to the gold level, and also reached the same realm as Xander.
At the same time, Xia Zuo quickly mastered all aspects of knowledge and skills taught by Li Si, so he became the captain of the second batch of [Wrath of Nature] elf team.
His friend Eric did not slow him down much, and after a while he also successfully broke through to the gold level.
Because of the relationship between the two, Eric chose to become the vice-captain of the Xia Zuo Elf Team.
The two of them brought other team members to Arcot City to complete the tasks assigned to them.
"Hey, it's not like you don't know me. This has never been what I'm good at!"
Xia Zuoli said confidently, unaware of the strange looks cast by his teammates. .
“This is the task assigned to us by Mr. Agli. In addition to us, there are two teams waiting for news about us outside the city.”
“It’s better to be careful. Don’t think that you have nothing to worry about if you break through the golden level.”
"If it weren't for Mr. Li Si, we still don't know when we will break through to the gold level!"
Eric shook his head. As a good friend, he knew Xia Zuo's character very well.
He is excellent in both talent and ability, but sometimes his somewhat superficial attitude makes people uneasy.
"Yes, I know."
Xia Zuo's face straightened and he nodded.
"I have been observing since we entered the city. It seems that everyone here knows our identity."
"However, they seem to be afraid of us. It is obvious that we have never faced the Elf Slave Catching Group. Someone from outside took action?"
Eric was certain that Xia Zuo's frivolity just now was just an act.
Yes, for such an important matter, you have to be nervous no matter what.
“It should be from Lord Li Si’s arrangement.”
Eric lowered his voice and said at a volume that only they could hear:
"You still remember that when we were chasing the slave-catching groups in the Elf Forest, Lord Lis specifically asked us not to kill them all. "
"We need to let one or two people go back to let them know our [Wrath of Nature]'s attitude."
"It seems that Lord Li Si's arrangement is working very well, news. Once word spreads, at least people close to the human kingdom will understand the [Wrath of Nature]”
“Awe and fear are the best ways to keep those with evil intentions away from the forest.”< br>
"That's what Master Agli said. I didn't understand what it meant until now."
"This is really good, and it also saves us a lot of trouble."
Xia Zuo nodded and said in a different tone:
"But... in this case, where can we get information about the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group?"
"It seems that these people don't dare to approach. What we look like.”
Xia Zuo scratched his head, looked around and said.
“The Mercenary Tavern and the Intelligence Merchant should be fine. If not, you can go to the Church of the Gods to ask for help.”
“But it’s best not to go to the Church of the Gods, after all. It's just a cooperative relationship with us."
"Yes."
Xia Zuo nodded slightly, he thought so too.
The Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group is a very special and low-key mercenary group. Its members are all composed of humans and are active in the areas surrounding the Elf Forest to complete commissioned tasks.
Although they behave in a low-key and mysterious manner, the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group can be considered a large mercenary group.
[Wrath of Nature] has never paid attention to this mercenary group before, but when it hunted down the leader of the Elf Slave Catching Group, it got a very crucial piece of information from him.
In the past, after many elves slave-catching groups captured the elves, they did not directly take the elves out of the forest, but would trade with people from the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group.
It is equivalent to selling elves directly to the hungry wolf mercenary group as commodities.
After [Wrath of Nature] secretly investigated during this period, they discovered that most of the mercenaries in the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group were actually unaware of this matter.
Many mercenaries in the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group did not know about the elf trade, and all clues ultimately pointed to a detachment named Mosa in the mercenary group.
It is said that this team is directly responsible to Qiao Xiuer, the leader of the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group. It is usually quite mysterious, and many people do not know what they are doing.
Finally, the clues about this Mosa detachment pointed to Arcot City, and Agli asked Xia Zuo's team to come first to inquire and obtain information.
“Let’s go then, it’s better for us to act together just in case.”
"In the future, we will go to the entire continent to search for traces of abyssal demons. Although we are still facing those mercenaries this time, it can be regarded as our team's first attempt to go to other races!"
" We must succeed!"
Xia Zuo said to the other companions in a low but serious tone.
The other elves looked serious and nodded seriously.
Sometimes, Xia Zuo is still very capable of leadership!
After Eric opened the map and determined the location, he led everyone towards the mercenary tavern.
The sun sets in the west, and the orange-red sunshine puts a warm windbreaker on this city built on the mountain.
Xia Zuo and Eric stood at the intersection of a dilapidated alley, looking back with ugly expressions.
Other elves have been standing at the entrance of the alley, waiting for the two captains to appear.
“I think that information dealer must know something.”
Xia Zuo gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
Today he and Eric ran around a lot in Arcot City. They went to mercenary pubs and normal intelligence dealers, but they didn't get any valuable information.
No one seems to know the situation of the Mosa detachment in the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group.
However, in the mercenary tavern, Eric also got the address of this underground intelligence businessman from the tavern waiter, and came here to try it just in case.
However, the other party claimed that although he knew the information about the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group, he had never heard of the name Mosa.
Although the other party concealed it very well and was even selling other information about the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group to Xia Zuo, as a ranger, he still noticed the moment of stagnation and consternation when the other party heard the name.
However, no matter how Xia Zuo and Eric asked, and even promised a large sum of money, the skinny intelligence businessman still shook his head and insisted that this was not the case.
Xia Zuo and Eric had no choice but to leave there.
After all, this is the royal capital of the Bolin Kingdom, and they must also pay attention to the impact.
“What should we do now?”
Eric looked at Xia Zuo and asked softly.
Xia Zuo shook his head slightly, unable to make up his mind for a moment.
"Go back now?" Eric suggested.
In addition to them, there are two elf teams waiting outside the city, ready to cooperate with the actions of Xia Zuo team.
Xia Zuo's team first entered Arcot City to collect intelligence, but the current situation made it difficult for Xia Zuo to make a decision.
Although Xia Zuo was not given a time limit, he was embarrassed to go back empty-handed without finding anything.
Especially since the team led by Xander was also outside the city, Xia Zuo subconsciously did not want to go back in such shame.
"No rush, there is still enough time. Let's investigate again tomorrow and go back if there are no results."
Xia Zuosi thought about it and decided this,
"What should we do?"
"Let's go to the station first."
Eric said to Xia Zuo.
The residence he was talking about was the residence of the Elisir family in Arcot City.
After Li Si formed [Wrath of Nature], these places became the organization’s private areas and strongholds for its members to rest.
Just when several elves were pressing the map and preparing to head to the station, a figure suddenly flashed across the street in front of them.
"Captain!"
Others did not pay attention, but an elf in the team suddenly said,
"Walker, what's wrong?"
Xia Zuo asked in a low voice.
"The figure just now has a tattoo of the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group on his right arm!"
Walker said with certainty. As the ranger with the best vision in the team, he was very confident about it.
"A member of the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group?"
Xia Zuo murmured to himself, thoughtfully.
“Something’s wrong, Xia Zuo!”
Eric looked over, his face a little gloomy.
"How could it be such a coincidence? We were looking for someone from the Hungry Wolf Mercenary Group, and someone with a Hungry Wolf Tattoo happened to appear in front of us."
"I know. "
Xia Zuo nodded, remained silent for a moment and then said:
"Walker, follow me."
"No problem."
The ranger named Walker responded simply.
"Eric, you and the others don't go to the station. Go directly to Xander and the others outside the city."
"I will leave a mark for you, and you can follow me when the time comes. That’s fine.”
“No, I don’t agree.”
Eric shook his head and said:
“Why do we still jump into it when we know it is a trap?”
“They must know that we are from [Wrath of Nature], but they still do this. , they must have something to rely on.”
“But it’s a rare opportunity, isn’t it?”
Xia Zuo also knew something was wrong, but he was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity. ,
After all, he found nothing today. He finally found some clues, and he was ready to follow even the bait that ran out.
Seeing that Eric was about to persuade him, Xia Zuo interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"Okay, I know the importance."
"You know, I have my confidence."
Seeing this, Eric knew that Xia Zuo had made up his mind.
He did know that Eric was the trump card. With him there, there was really no need to worry about Xia Zuo's safety.
After making a quick decision, Eric did not hesitate, nodded and left quickly with the others.
“Let’s go, Walker!”
Xia Zuo and Walker immediately rushed towards the direction where the figure disappeared.
Turning a corner, the suspicious figure appeared in their sight again.
As if waiting for the two of them, they ran in a remote direction.
How deliberate!
Xia Zuo sighed in his heart, but his vigilance did not weaken at all.
Three figures, one behind the other, kept moving forward along the alley.
After a while, Xia Zuo's heart may have become more intense.
Something's wrong!
No matter how secluded the place is, it is impossible for other people to not be simple!
At this moment, the figure who had been rushing ahead stopped and turned around.
Pale and stiff faces appeared in front of the two elves, and a cold and evil aura swept through the entire alley like a tide.
This should be a corpse occupied by a gold-level undead. It exudes a dark aura, like a dead tide that seems to swallow up all the vitality around it, making the entire alley fall into In deathly silence.
In just a moment, Xia Zuo felt a cold air rising from the soles of his feet.
Undead!
Golden level undead!
So strong!
Xia Zuo reacted quickly. Although he had very little contact with it, this characteristic that was completely different from the breath of life and was still very clear.
laugh!
Xia Zuo grabbed Walker's shoulders and threw him far away.
On the ground where Walker just stood, there were many small holes, with signs of constant corrosion on the edges.
Xia Zuo's face was gloomy. In this confrontation alone, he knew that there was absolutely no way he could match the undead opponent in front of him.
As an elf ranger, Xia Zuo is extremely disgusted with the aura of the undead, and is preparing to find an opportunity to escape.
But although the undead in front of him moved in extremely weird postures, his speed was beyond Xia Zuo's imagination, and he couldn't get away for a while.
The corpse was like a puppet controlled by the undead. The sharp nails flashed with a miserable green light, making Xia Zuo dare not touch it at all.
But it seems to be okay, I don’t feel like I need to use my trump card
Xia Zuo thought to himself.
Suddenly, a warm hand grasped Xia Zuo's neck.
"So careless?"
