Chapter 10: Don't open the main line, specialize in the branch line

"Master, I'm back."

When Zhu Peng poured a tube of light red reagent into the stewed vegetable soup, Vanur's low and heavy sound came from outside the door. The guy was disobedient and killed him on time as soon as it was time for dinner.

Ledia, who was originally quite professional instructive, felt uncomfortable at first, but after more than two months, Little Sister's stomach was conquered. She had to put it aside for the time being. Now every time the meal starts, her appetite is particularly good.

If he is an ordinary wizard, even if he practices witch-eating, it will be difficult to be as free as Zhu Peng. Zhu Peng is the pioneer of this witch-eating technique. After he comes to any world, he can read a few books on the world's pharmacy and make witch-eating techniques that adapt to the rules of this world. The inheritors must practice in the field of witch-eating to the master level in order to innovate and follow the trend.

Unless the practitioner is like Zhu Peng, he has in-depth knowledge of ancient Chinese medicine, potions, and herbal medicine, and he also works as a part-time alchemist, and has reached a meticulous level of control over the human body.

Under the nourishing effect of witch-eating, the subject's physical condition has been greatly improved. While Amyra and Ledia are getting better and better, their appearance is also gradually improving. However, during the growth and development period, Amyra is far more obvious than that of Ledia, who is already adult.

As an orc, Vanur even successfully activates his orc talent because of Zhu Peng's witch-eating technique. Once it is violent, its attack power will almost double within the time limit of its physical capacity and greatly reduce its load damage.

Furious, a racial talent that could only be activated by the most fierce warriors of the Orcs. Vanur, who had low qualifications, had never had this life, but now he has been reversed by Zhu Peng's witchcraft.

"Master, today when I was fighting Lord Wilkas, I first attacked fiercely according to your requirements, activate the rage before Lord Wilkas counterattacked, and beat him without any defense. Then when Lord Wilkas had just adapted, I easily got caught in two minutes. I think Lord Wilkas is far less powerful than you... All his reactions are within your deduction and estimate." Vanur said as he ate the stewed beef legs in big mouthfuls, and he said, and the years of long-term wish finally achieved it, which made it very excited.

"It's just that I have a calculating but not intentionality. Wilkas is the most outstanding shield war swordsman in the comrades. He can master his tactics with a little attention and then make targeted arrangements based on your situation. This does not mean that I am stronger than Wilkas. Vanur, you should respect your future boss unless he is timid or stupid in itself is not worthy of your respect for him." Zhu Peng frowned slightly, put down his bowl and chopsticks and taught Vanur a lesson.

After all, I will leave this world. If the orc disciple in front of me develops a stupid and arrogant personality, I cannot protect it for the rest of my life.

"I understand, Master."

In the heart of the orc warrior Vanur, his human master was very majestic. Therefore, even if Zhu Peng just gave a gentle lesson, he felt very uncomfortable and wronged. He picked up the vegetable soup in front of him and sucked it in big mouthfuls. Normally, the orcs should be full of meat, but Vanur didn't know why. He especially liked to eat any food cooked by his master...even if it was vegetable soup.

"Hmm? Amyra, it's on your cheek." As he said, Ledia reached out and took it off gently, but it was a black and red animal hair.

"Did you sleep with the dog? Why does it smell like a dog that falls into the water?" Ledia said with a sniff gently and frowned slightly.

"No, I live with my aunt. I have a separate room in the comrades. Maybe, it may be that my aunt was caught during the hunting process. Recently, my aunt took on a task of clearing out saber-toothed tigers and was busy all day long." Amyra responded with a confused look while drinking vegetable soup.

Seeing the black and red animal hair pinched between the middle finger of Ledia's hand, Zhu Peng's eyes flashed. He reached out to take it, and then said, "Don't discuss topics that affect appetite when eating. No, you should try to speak as little as possible when eating, otherwise it will be unfavorable to digestion." As he said, Zhu Peng put the animal hair into his clothes with two fingers. There is an alchemy room in the Feng House, so you can do some simple analysis and deduction.

After a sumptuous supper, the living room of Fengzhai.

Ledia sat with Emila, Vanur sat aside, while Zhu Peng stood and took out a letter and said, "We received a desperate letter. A resident of Xueman City was kidnapped. They originally planned to seek help from the comrades, but during this period, the comrades seemed to be busy with some large-scale missions, so this mission fell into my hands and needed to respond in a timely manner, especially the rewards of this mission were quite generous."

"It should be noted that this time is different from the simple clearing mission in the past. In order to ensure the safety of the hostages, we need to sneak in first, and after rescue, someone breaks through from the outside and completely annihilate it. Therefore, neither Ledya nor Vanur will play in the early stage of this mission..."

Normally, the most important thing in the rescue mission is the word "fast", which emphasizes lightning speed, because the time delays a little longer, and I don't know what kind of damage the hijacked person will suffer.

But this task was to fall into Zhu Peng's hands, and the time had been delayed for three days. If something happened, I'm afraid there have been many rounds now, not to mention that the kidnappers wanted a large ransom, so Zhu Peng only talked about the task after dinner. Today's dinner was a course of witchcraft. If it was forced to interrupt, the gain loss would be huge.

Jingxi Camp is not very far from Xueman City. According to the information Zhu Peng checked, this place was originally a mine, but it was abandoned and changed into a military camp. Later, after the empire unified the international province, the significance of this place as a military unit also disappeared. After being abandoned again, it gradually became an area occupied by robbers. If one group was wiped out, one group would be replenished, and another group would be replenished. Such repetitions would be made.

"It is indeed a good place with a broad vision and a good defense beyond the attack. It is not far or near to Xueman City. The city guards will definitely be discovered when they come over. However, whether a small group of mercenaries has the ability to capture this camp is a matter of different things." Standing in the forest in the distance, Zhu Peng observed the garrison in Jingxi camp with a homemade monocular telescope.

There are robbers standing in groups of three or three on the high ground of Muzhai. Although there is no strict military patrol, it is generally difficult not to be discovered as long as you get close.

"There are usually three archers guarding. Although I, Brother Sidith and Sister Ledia can do archery skills, it is impossible for us to shoot one archer with one arrow at a distance that is not discovered... It is difficult to shoot at such a distance." Amyra is young and has strong plasticity. During this period, she has accumulated enough confidence with Zhu Peng repeatedly winning. Although she frowned at this moment, she is very clear about the analysis.

"Let's just kill us by force. Those guys may not know that we are here to rescue the hostages." Vanur held heavy hammers in his hands and angrily brushed the lower limit of his presence and IQ. None of the other three people present ignored it.

"We set fire to the forest. The best result of this distance is that the other party will send people to come and lurk. If they dare to come, you can let go and kill. With your combat power, they don't want to be eaten in vain, so they will inevitably provide reinforcements. Amyra and I sneaked in from the other side. Even if these bandits are indifferent, setting fire to the forest will at least attract some of their attention... When you see a rocket soaring into the sky, you will start to attack the camp. If they go out to surround you and fight and leave or simply retreat, the main purpose of our mission is to rescue the hostages, Alvosied Zhankuang. These bandits are here, and you can come and kill them whenever you want after saving the hostages." After thinking for a while, after making plans, Zhu Peng even found a favorable terrain and laid certain magic traps before lurking with Amy to the other side of Jingxi camp.

Because of his professional background, Zhu Peng had a very good relationship with the Xuemancheng palace mage Farenjia Mihuo. He divided the Moran to add some dragon bones and dragon scale materials to Faren. Farenjia also distributed his accumulation and collection of books to Zhu Peng for some study. Therefore, Zhu Peng now has certain attainments in the alchemy, enchantment, and various magic in this world, and even made certain improvements and strengthenings.

After all, he studied with the foundation of another legendary wizard in the world of high demons, so he was of course terrible speed. Although the overall caster level in this world is not very high, there are some unique features that can be used as a stone to attack jade from other mountains.

When Zhu Peng and Amyra lurked to the other side of Jingxi camp, Ledia and Vanur ignited the forest fire. There is no concept of environmental protection in this world, let alone to save people.

When the forest fire burned, the robbers in Jingxi camp made the most favorable choice after discovering it. They sent a team of people to see what was going on. Especially for the forest fire like this, there will be many animal corpses left after the end, which is also a good extra meal for the robbers.

"Let's go, move more neatly." Although he was wearing light armor, Zhu Peng still blessed both himself and Amyra with light body techniques. As long as he did not jump from a high place, he would basically settle down silently. It is a very suitable for both thieves and assassins in this world to practice.

On the wooden city of Jingxi Camp, three robbers looked at the forest fire in the distance with anticipation, hoping that their companions could bring back more roasted meat.

(There are too many robbers and too much competitive pressure, which makes the industry not very profitable and high-risk, so why bother?) Two shadows cooperated with each other to climb the wooden wall. Amyra was young, and she was quick and had some abnormal powers. After being pushed up with Zhu Peng as the fulcrum, she quietly pulled Zhu Peng up with her backhand, and the whole process did not alarm anyone.

Amyra touched the back of a archer, cut her throat and put down the body with a knife. It was clean and neat, and it was almost unbelievable that she was a complete novice more than two months ago. The moonlight shone on the enchantment dagger with a light green light, revealing the dual blessing effect of enchanting and poisoning.

In contrast, Zhu Peng made a little sound, and the sound of the two swords being sheathed out, and the dark fire floated over the steel swords. The high-frequency fast attack and the blessing power of the flame enchantment damage killed the two robbers who were not as good as the response. Apart from the sound of the two swords being sheathed out, there was no sound here until the two corpses fell to the ground.

"Go down, there seem to be far fewer people in this camp than I infer."

After going out with a team of robbers and dealing with the three archers defending the city, there were almost no people in the entire camp. This was a bit abnormal, but it had nothing to do with the mission. Zhu Peng and Amyra were careful of the dungeon, and after opening an iron wooden door, they sneaked into the inner camp built on the previous mine cave.

Just here, something unexpected happened.

An extremely fierce woman was fighting against a fully armed robber on the opposite side with a dagger. The most important thing was that she was not at a disadvantage. The robber who was wielding the big sword was obviously in an abnormal state, with slow pace and weak sword power.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Peng stabbed the robber with two swords from behind, but the real fatal knife came from that woman. She stabbed the guy in the heart with a head-on sword and completed the killing.

"I am Alvosied. Are you here to save me? Please take me away quickly. I don't want to stay here again for a moment." Alvosied threw away the blood-stained dagger in his hand and said this.

"What's going on in this camp? These are the only people? What about the others?"

"I don't know, and I don't want to know. I mixed herbal death knives and salt into his wine..." It seemed that because of imprisonment, Alvosid's mental state was a little unstable. Seeing this, Zhu Peng directly asked Amyra to take her away first.

"Brother, where are you?"

"On the one hand, I want to block the pursuers for you, and on the other hand, I'm very curious who dragged them down." Zhu Peng said, squatting down and taking out a bunch of keys from the heavily armed robber.

…………

He was invisible in the dark with his two swords, waiting at the exit of the Jingxi Mine Cave until the time was dragged long enough and confirmed that Amyra had already run far enough with the hostages, Zhu Peng opened the door of the Jingxi Mine Cave with the key he searched and sneaked in quietly.

However, Amyra did not listen to Zhu Peng this time. Instead, she picked up the sword of a dead archer after going out, stuffed it into Alvosied's hand, and then took her to the direction where Ledia and Vanur were.

At this time, Ladya and Vanur were relying on the advantage of the landlord to fight against the spell traps set up by Zhu Peng and the robbers who came out of Jingxi Camp.

Zhu Peng is rich and arrogant, and never stings with spending money on his subordinates. He also needs to practice enchantment in this world. Therefore, the heavy armor of Lady and Vanur are all enchanted with life bonuses. Lady's left shield has ice resistance enchantment, which is specifically targeted at the magic swordsman or wizard in this world.

These native spellcasters used ice to suppress heavy armored warriors who were already loaded with high weights. Ledia's right-hand sword enchanted physical damage. Even if it was blocked, it would take away part of the physical energy from the opponent. The direct killing was not strong, but it created an excellent killing opportunity for his teammates.

Normally, two-handed weapons heavy-armed warriors often choose ice enchantment spells on their weapons when conditions permit. While slightly increasing their attack power, ice enchantment can also reduce the opponent's physical strength and slow down the opponent's movement speed, which is more suitable for heavy-handed weapons to attack. However, Zhu Peng considered that his orc apprentice Vanur often fights with the team, so he simply attached flame enchantment to its heavy warhammer, which greatly improved the instant attack power. Combined with the high lethality of the two-handed warhammer itself, it can almost achieve the killing effect of one hammer, and death when touched, and severely injured.

These two guys cooperated with each other, and had the advantageous terrain and the magic trap set up by Zhu Peng. Although they were surrounded by many robbers in Jingxi Camp, they gradually gained the upper hand. The robbers around were killed less and less. Often, any robber was stabbed by Ledya's long sword, and Vanur's heavy hammer would hit him and kill him instantly.

Originally, the bandits in Jingxi Camp were about to collapse in morale. At this time, Amyra suddenly came with a bow and shot two bandits with her strings at the moment she appeared. This time it turned into a strangle battle. Ledya and Vanur took advantage of the situation to rush out of the defensive terrain and cooperated with Amyra to kill the remaining bandits one by one.

Amyra's longbow enchantment is a panic technique. Even if the robber was shot, he would run around once his will was detected. In this terrain where Zhu Peng had arranged a spell trap in advance, he was almost different from running around in a minefield. There was no immortality.

At the same time, Zhu Peng saw dead bodies in the underground mine and blood-drained corpses, and some robbers' hearts were also taken away. The entire scene was like a blood-drained terrifying slaughterhouse, with traces of struggle and struggle everywhere.

(Dark Clan?)

There is another exit inside this underground mine cave. When you come here after clues, Zhu Peng found some black and red hair in the chaotic environment, just like what Amyra found.

(If it were just robbers, the habit of vampires would not be so ugly. Even if the vampires come here are relatively weak, after they succeed, they will not be able to let go of those people outside with their greed. There are also these hairs. I have never heard of any clan's immortal species that have beast hair.) The words that Amyra said not long ago were flashing in her mind: "My aunt and I live with me, and my aunt has a separate room in the comrades group..."

"Eira, Fakas, Scoyue, no, if my inference is correct, there are problems with the top leaders of the entire comrades group, otherwise how could they hide it when they get along day and night?" Just as Zhu Peng deduced from the scene environment and the black shadow fighting the vampire gradually took shape in his mind, anxious footsteps suddenly came from behind him.

When I looked back, my eyes were sharp and terrifying, but what I saw was Amyra, Ledia and Vanur who rushed in quickly, and even the targets of this rescue, Alvosied, followed behind with an iron sword.

"What's the situation? Amyra, didn't I order you to take the hostage back to Xueman?" At this moment, Zhu Peng's face looked extremely bad. When his subordinates no longer obeyed the leader's order, it was the beginning of the weakening of the team's combat power.

"But...but I'm worried about you."

"So, your profit this time is gone. After you go back, your time to practice bows is doubled, and you have the spare time to fuck me in your leisure time, which only shows that the exercise you usually arrange is too easy."

Returning to Xueman, this time, it was a full load. The hostages were rescued without any damage. The robbers in Jingxi Camp, which was not weak, also killed and wiped out. Although the battle between the dark creatures affected them, they did not move the money in the camp. Of course, they were probably not time to move.

Windy house, at night.

When Zhu Peng walked out of the alchemy laboratory, he had already analyzed the composition of the two red and black beast hairs, which was indeed what he thought... werewolf, and even belonged to the same person.

After the experiment, it was already very late. Vanur and Amyra returned to the comrades group, and Ledia was already asleep. After Zhu Peng returned to his bedroom, he saw the night wind and the silk curtains floating. The starry sky outside was extremely beautiful, but he suddenly changed his face.

He rushed to the position where the silver sword was placed next to the table, but he grabbed the air with one claw, two shadows surrounded Zhu Peng's left and right, and one of them spoke:

"Are you looking for this? You pounced on the only silver sword in the room at the first time. It seems that you have really discovered something you shouldn't have discovered."

Knowing that all the weapons in his room had probably been put away, Zhu Peng secretly hated that he had been staying in Xueman during the period of staying in Xueman, and subconsciously relaxed his vigilance, because the security and defense of this city were indeed well arranged. The Lord of Xueman, Balguff, is a very powerful and talented person.

"No need to pretend to be a ghost anymore, Fakas, Ella, and... Skoyue." He said to the three figures in the room. Fakas, who held his silver sword, the slim Ara went further one after another. The figure standing in front of the window slowly turned around, but it was not Skoyue, but the strongest shield war swordsman of the comrades, Wilkas, this powerful man who was almost the leader of the comrades.

"It seems that you are really not our target. You do know nothing about Scoyue's state." Wilkas said this, which made Zhu Peng stunned, and the next moment he reacted.

"Skoyue died because of the battle with the vampire?"

"I'm not dead yet, but it's almost... The target we originally doubted was you, Wuzhu's background, strange swordsmanship, and mysterious abilities." Ella showed a little sadness when talking about Skoyue's near death. When this powerful woman heard the news of her mother's death, she was only silent for a while. It can be seen that the bond between the people of the comrades group is indeed extremely deep.

"...If possible, I want to see Skoyue." When he said this, Zhu Peng paused, then he looked around and continued, "You also think my ability is mysterious, so why not try it? I might be able to recover Skoyue's life. Even if I fail, it would be ten times better to take action at the Warriors House than to take action here. Do you really have enough confidence to surround me without missing a word?" Zhu Peng's words stunned the three of them present, and then they looked at each other.

This is a multiple-choice question with no choice at all. Sidish is considering himself in almost every aspect, leaving Ella, Wilkas and others with no room for rejection at all.

About twenty minutes later, against the night, Zhu Peng came to the side of the Warriors' House while the three of them were surrounded.

The comrades in Xueman City have the best blacksmiths and the best furnace in the entire Sky Province. The blacksmith is Erende Grayside, and the furnace is the sky furnace. It produces a large number of extremely exquisite equipment for the comrades. Among them, the wolf armor set has excellent defense power that is not inferior to the steel heavy armor, but it is far lighter than the steel heavy armor, and is a very cost-effective warrior equipment.

But I'm afraid not many people know that there is a hidden stone chamber under the famous sky furnace. After Ella pushed open the turning stone door, Zhu Peng walked in without hesitation. Then he saw Scoyue, who was accompanied by other senior executives of the comrades.

The bald warrior was already in dying at this moment. There was a claw mark on his chest that could highly condense blood. The moment he saw the wound, Zhu Peng's pupils suddenly shrank.

"Will, Ella, what's going on? What do you bring Sidith here for?" Craco, the most prestigious comrades group, frowned and stood up. If Wilkas was the leader of the young and strong comrades group, then Craco is the boss now. Although he may not be as good as Wilkas, the prestige accumulated by the old man over the years has not even made Wilkas fight him. Wilkas regards the old man in front of him as a teacher, pioneer, and even a life guide.

"I came here voluntarily. Mr. Skoyue also had some friendship with me. If I had the ability, it would be hard to stop him from saving me." After saying that, Zhu Peng did not wait for Craco to respond and walked straight to Skoyue to check his injuries. In fact, there is nothing to check. This kind of penetration of the curse of the blood clan Zhu Peng has seen too many in the wizard world... Chinese warriors will fight with the Dark Clan for a while.

"If you take my bottle of medicine, he will have half the chance to survive. Of course, I didn't ask you to choose, because if you don't accept it, he will die. I think you can see this." Taking out a bottle of test tube carrying a light red solution, Zhu Peng reached out and raised Skoyue's neck slightly, and poured the medicine into him.

After the potion mixed with dragon blood was in the mouth, Skoyue's originally peaceful expression gradually became painful. The wolf blood in his body was gradually boiling to repel dragon blood. This reactivated Skoyue's vitality in disguise. At the same time, after a brief examination, Zhu Peng reported the names of n many herbs and instructed Fakas, Ella and Wilkas to find, buy, or even grab them.
