Chapter 175 Mysterious Murderer
Chapter 175 The Mysterious Murderer
"Animals? It's unlikely." Maya did not agree with Felleg's inference. What kind of animal can escape the eyes of the mage?
"I know." Fellig shook his head and shook his inference.
Going up to the top of the mountain, I found another camp with more corpses inside, with twelve. Judging from the badges on their chests, they should be together with the two corpses below.
"It seems that the camp below is their outpost, but unfortunately the result is the same." Felleg shook his head and said. He was able to kill people silently and without hesitation. This kind of killer is really terrible.
"Then we..." Maya was a little worried. She was not afraid of fighting head-on with the enemy. Even if the other party was a martial god, she had the courage to raise a sword, but when facing an invisible enemy, anyone would worry.
"Living here, I want to see what's causing trouble." Felleg said more firmly, and he must not retreat. Isn't this the purpose of the magician's travel?
Burying the body, the two of them set up tents on the other side of the top of the mountain. Although the mountain is not high, the area on the top of the mountain is not small, at least in this way, there is no need to smell the stench of the body.
There were not many trees on the mountain, with bushes growing, and most of the places were knee-deep weeds. There were even fewer animals. The two of them walked along the way and saw only a few animals such as pheasants and hares, and never saw a single large creature.
Just as the camp was settled, Ferge and Maya turned north almost at the same time. Ferge took out his staff, and Maya also took out his short broad sword.
After a while, a team of soldiers in armor walked up to the top of the mountain. When they saw Ferieg and the others, they looked surprised and then formed a defensive formation. Seeing Ferieg's magic robe, they dared not act rashly.
One person walked out of the team, clasped his fists to the two and said, "Hello, dear magician. We are Johnny Otis, the commander of the Mayan Empire's Fierce Wind Mercenary Corps, a twelve-level warrior.
A few days ago, a mercenary team I sent lost contact here, so I came to check it out.”
Not bad, with a decent manner, courteous and polite manner, Felleg likes such people.
Fellig nodded: "I am Fellig, a magician of the Auckland Empire. This is my partner Maya, and she is also a Maya.
"Since they are compatriots in Maya, there seems to be no need to worry. It is normal for the mercenary group to come here. This is a fine gold mine. Although it has been abandoned for many years, the fine gold mine is equivalent to a large amount of gold coins, and the mercenary group earns desperate money.
Seeing that his own compatriots were there, the other party relaxed, there was no need to fight here. During the mainland war, everyone was an allies, not to mention his own people. As for who can find the fine gold ore here.
It depends on everyone's ability.
"Feleg? Are you the former commander of the Auckland Empire Hurricane Division? " Johnny asked in surprise.
Felleg was even more surprised than him. Is he so famous? Johnny knew about the Hurricane Division, so he could not recognize the wrong person. But in the Continental War, there were thousands of legions. The Little Land Hurricane Division, a mercenary leader, actually knew about it.
"Yes, it's me, how do you know mine?" asked Felleg.
"Master Feleg, you may not know that you are already very famous throughout the East Continent now." Johnny said with a smile, making out a lot. He is no longer as nervous as he was at the beginning.
"Oh?" I seem to have never done anything worthy of being famous in the continent. Even in the Auckland Empire, only the strong people know their name.
"Because of the magic weapons you and Commander Legion brought back, each country has been assigned a little bit and has begun to explore the magic crystal mine on a large scale."
This is a fact, but why don’t the people in the Blood-Thorn Mercenary Group know themselves?
"When did it start?" Feleg continued.
Johnny's smile on his face looked a little ugly. Does the hero in his mind care so much about his reputation? In his impression, the magician wouldn't care about these things at all.
"A year ago. It started a year ago. You and the Legion Commander Lea may not care about false reputation.
However, in order to inspire the soldiers on the front line, countries collected and sorted out the deeds of heroes from the war, compiled books and invited minstrels to sing them widely. "Johnny saw that Felleg's eyes changed a little, and it turned out that the heroes were also vain.
Maya smiled and said, "The Blood-Thorn Mercenary Group must have come out early to explore ore, so she doesn't know about you."
Johnny didn't know what the two said, he had heard of the Blood-Spiked Mercenary Group. The largest mercenary group in the Wind God Empire ranks fifth among the East Continent mercenary groups, with more than 6,000 people. It is a super-large mercenary group.
"Master Ferig, Miss Maya, when did you come? Did you see the people from our mercenary group?" Although he was not ashamed of Ferig's character, his respect for the magician cannot be reduced slightly, otherwise there will be big trouble, and the magicians are all very arrogant people.
Ferlig pointed to the camp not far away and said, "There is a small camp here, where twelve bodies were found, and they have been buried.
On the hillside, there is a smaller camp with two bodies inside. Before you can come, you can bury them. Maybe they are the ones you are looking for."
In fact, Ferlig had already seen from their badges that the fourteen corpses were all from the Wind Mercenary Group, and their badges were the same. When he saw the badge on the corpse, Ferlig could not recognize it, so he naturally knew it.
"Thank you, dear magician.
"Johnny was puzzled. He cared so much about his fame and reputation, and could actually bury the corpses for mercenaries he had never seen before? After thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out, and finally thought that all the magicians were weird people, so he stopped thinking about it.
Send people to the mountainside to collect the body and re-tire the camp. Johnny and his party had thirty-six people, plus the twelve dead. In the mercenary world, they are already considered a medium-sized mercenary group, with many less than ten mercenary groups.
After packing up everything, Johnny came to invite the two of them in person. They had seen the bodies, and they could not see the cause of death. In this regard, their experience is far more abundant than that of Ferleg.
Although there are many people nowadays, God knows what will happen here. It is good to be able to establish a good relationship with a magician even if others are a little bit strange. Mercenaries make money by taking risks, but it does not mean they are not afraid of death.
There are not many people in the Wind Mercenary Group, but their skills in survival in the wild are very good, and they are extremely authentic. According to the tradition of mercenaries, six bonfires are lit outside the camp, and the fire in the center of the camp is the largest and most prosperous.
"Master Feleg, have you seen what is killing people?" The dense small wounds, you can tell at a glance that they are not artificial, and there is no weapon that will cause such damage.
"I can't see it." Fellig said with a shake of his head.
"How long are you two here?" Johnny asked. With a magician by his side, he felt much more at ease. As for the other one, he was just a girl. It was not easy to have the courage to get here. He ignored Maya directly.
Johnny's little thoughts naturally could not escape Felleg's eyes. He glanced at Johnny and found that there were no masters among these warriors, and the worst was about level three or four, and he could only be said to be relatively strong soldiers.
Johnny is the strongest. Below him, two people should be able to pass level 10. With such strength, I thought that I would be desperate to make money from here.
"We are here to investigate the murderer. The time is not fixed, and I don't know if we can find it out."
"That's great. We have to stay here for a while. We will ask you two to take care of you in the future." Johnny breathed a sigh of relief. If the other party was also looking for a gold mine, he was afraid he would not have time to pay attention to the Qianfeng Mercenary Group.
Through previous experience, no one has died here. It seems that the murderer can also distinguish the strength of a person's ability. Since he is here to investigate the murderer, when there is something wrong with the Qianfeng Mercenary Group, they can't just watch it and ignore it.
The two camps were only thirty meters away. Ferge and Maya used a tent to sit opposite each other. At the door of the tent, a bonfire was raised, which was far less lively than the camp of the Fierce Wind Mercenary Group, and it seemed very quiet.
But in Johnny's eyes, this small tent is far safer than the camp of the mercenary group.
In order to prevent accidents, the Storm Mercenary Group took turns to rest, and half of the people were always checking in the small camp. The sun wheel slowly rose, and for the mercenaries, it was a long night, but fortunately nothing happened.
It is not difficult to find a fine gold mine, and everyone knows the address. Qilihe Jingjin Mine is a rich mine with four mines with a large amount of fine gold inside. It is said that it is getting less and less now, and I don’t know if it has been lit up.
On the hillside outside the mine, fine gold ore can occasionally be found.
The Qianfeng Mercenary Group was not many people and was not capable, but she was very brave. She first sent two people into the mine and then divided half of them into the mountain to search for ore.
Ferleg and Maya circled around the hill. This time, Maya's luck came and found a basin-sized gold ore in a pile of stones.
The refined gold ore is completely different from the refined iron ore. Although this ore is not small, the amount of refined gold inside is not large. The melting point of the refined gold is extremely high. If you want to refine it, you must use special tools to melt it.
Fortunately, with Maya's strength, she brought a big stone. In addition to some inconvenience in movement, there is no need to worry about this weight at all. If it weren't for someone else on the mountain, it would be easier to let the bear come out and take it.
Until evening, everyone returned to the camp. The Fierce Mercenary Group was prepared and had a complete set of equipment. After dinner, they began to refine the essence.
There were not many harvests on this day, only seven ore was seven or eight small stones. In the mine, there were not many ores, which were far less exaggerated than the legendary ones.
"Master Ferlig, do you find one too? Do you want us to help you melt it?" Johnny finished arranging his hands and walked to the tents of the two, looking at the ore at the door of the tent, and was very envious, but the other party was a magician, so he didn't dare to make Ferlig's idea.
