Chapter 0251 Cooperation

This information is important enough, but it lacks the necessary evidence, and if it is reported, it will not be enough for the ruling parliament to accept it, and even further investigation tasks will fall on them.

So, after much deliberation, Priestess Lusa issued a new mission within her authority. Any mercenary who retrieves evidence of the surface mage's activity in the ruins will immediately receive permanent residency and 1,000 gold in the city of Cazanmoyes, as well as honorary citizenship guaranteed by the Fifth Family, and the ability to select an enchanted piece of equipment from the family treasury.

Such a reward is already generous enough, and at least the remaining mercenaries already have ecstatic looks on their faces. However, for the Alien Blood Demon, he will never understand the meaning and value of permanent residency and family sponsorship, and the only thing he is interested in is equipment and opportunities.

An opportunity for the righteous light to attack the mage.

However, with his current strength of level 12, he will have to weigh the proportions when he encounters a high-level mage above level 10. To be honest, the caster's endless shields are really difficult to break, coupled with the numerous life-saving methods, it is far from being as easy to kill as imagined.

Since the debut of the Blood Demon, he has been invincible, relying on the treacherous invisibility of the blood spell and the unpreparedness of others, and the number of times he has fought against the mage is very small after all. Once a difficult bone appears and is beaten by many spellcasters, he is not immortal, so he is still very cautious about the matter of facing spellcasters.

No matter how delicious the caster's blood is, it must be eaten with life.

So when the leader of the thieves approached him and asked for an alliance to cooperate in the mission, the Bloodfiend readily agreed, ignoring how ugly the kobold warlocks in the small team had become.

After a brief rest, the team re-entered a deep and dark underground passage.

This time, led by thieves, the team traveled much faster. Coupled with the Blood Fiend's keen instinct for enemy blood, they can often bypass or suffocate the eyeliner at those key nodes, so it only takes half a day to return to the place where they last encountered the enemy mage.

Seeing the huge space that suddenly appeared in front of him, the Blood Demon couldn't help but let out a different sigh. The underworld, this is the underworld deservedly.

Walking through a narrow and deep tunnel, a wide world is presented in front of you. It is roughly estimated that it is about 500 meters from the ground to the top of the cave, and at such a height, the top of the cave is almost completely invisible from the ground, as if a deep curtain is hanging over it. Coupled with some glowstones, shales, agate and other luminous objects exposed on the stone wall of the cave roof, the beautiful night sky and dotted stars on the surface of the earth are completely reproduced, and people can't help but sigh at the magical beauty of nature.

This massive cavern is supposed to be the centerpiece of the area, where more than a dozen underground rivers converge to form a large underground lake. All kinds of strange shrubs, jungles, and moss cover the bottom of the cave, and the roar of some large animals can be faintly heard among the dense vegetation.

Such places are not uncommon in the middle of the Dark Regions, and are equivalent to oases in the desert, the best place to supply all Underground Travelers, but also the most dangerous areas. Due to the abundance of water and the abundance of food, many powerful predators will try to occupy an area here and enjoy the food delivered to their door. Therefore, the creatures that are not enough do not dare to stay here for a long time, and many caravans and passers-by also form a formation in groups to come here to get some water and food, and then leave quickly, never stopping here to rest.

The thieves' squad is the enemy they encountered in a water source here, more than 30 fighters of the Kuroshio mercenary group and 2 surface mages covered in black robes. Due to some accidents, both sides were not fully prepared, and the thieves were scattered and escaped.

The death of the bear goblin and the minotaur has weakened the thief squad, leaving only one thief, a kobold warlock, a lizardman hunter, and a dwarf bard. Such a team has lost its basic balance, and there are actually 3 support professions in the 4 members, and they can't experience any combat at all. Just 2 minotaurs will launch a death charge, and the team will collapse in an instant.

"That's why they're in a hurry to replenish their team, right?" The Blood Demon speculated with bad intentions, but was still a little puzzled that they had taken the initiative to come to him. After all, his appearance is thin and weak, and he doesn't look like a fierce man who can block the gun's hole.

But the Bloodseeker didn't care about it. It's okay if they don't stretch out their claws, and they can also have an "ally" to share the enemy's firepower, and if they really can't help but stretch out their claws, he doesn't mind changing tastes.

"Let's go, find some clues in it, and if you have a chance, it's best to find a hard hand to run in first!" The leader of the thieves spoke directly, but his eyes hidden in the shadow of his hood kept his eyes on his new "partner".

The Blood Demon nodded slightly, and without saying a word, he walked into the dense underground jungle first.

The leader of the thieves turned his head and glanced at his former subordinates again, and the three of them nodded knowingly, and then they silently followed behind into the unknown danger.

Standing on the edge and looking at this lush underground jungle will make travelers who are tired of the darkness and loneliness inexplicably happy. But once you really walk into it, you will find that this place is still full of dangers and dangers.

There are a lot of green plants, but they are either extremely difficult to pass shrubs and climbing vines, or man-eating flowers, creeping monsters, arrows, pitcher plants, and active blood-sucking mosquitoes, locusts, large black ants, purple snakes, and reclusive beasts, so the danger is no less than elsewhere, and even near the lake.

Many predatory beasts will lie in ambush at the water's edge, waiting for their prey to relax their vigilance and suddenly pounce, and even the seemingly calm bottom of the water is full of life, and the competition is not inferior to that on land. It's basically a world of benthic devilfish, blue-footed dragon snakes, and Medusa, and few people dare to dive into the water to disturb their peace, but occasionally they will run to the water's edge to fight their teeth.

It was such a dangerous place, but the Blood Demon was walking rampant in it.

Half a mile had already passed, and the leader of the thieves frowned repeatedly. There are too many unreasonable things about the emaciated gnoll assassin who appears in the sky, and even many of his actions break his regular experience.

First of all, an Assassin didn't even know how to restrain his manners.

Along the way, the Blood Fiend not only left extremely clear footprints, but also did not follow the underground routine of silent stealth. The rustling of the soles of his feet on the ground was not loud, but for an assassin, it was incredible.

Second, he doesn't seem to have a high sense of danger.

Many of the places where the Blood Demon traveled were covered with natural traps, but he never avoided them, even the camouflage tentacles left on the ground by the Creeping Monsters, as long as they stood in his way, he would not make a mistake. On several occasions, the leader of the thieves saw the Blood Demon stepping on the huge petals of the pitcher plant, the tentacles of the creeping monsters, and the branches and leaves of the killer vine passing by, but did not cause any reaction as he should be.

What made him even more frightened was that the ubiquitous blood-sucking mosquitoes, big black ants and other small things were also gone, as if they also knew to avoid them.

The leader of the thieves sighed inwardly, and no longer thinking about these strange things that he would never be able to figure out, but focused on where he had landed. Usually there is a guide in front of you, and everyone will be much more relaxed, just follow him. But today, the leader of such an evil sect made them not worry at all, and no one dared to copy the path he had walked, so he could only be led by the leader of the thieves to turn left and right, avoid the traps of these carnivorous plants, and quietly walk towards the depths of the forest.

Wudi, the blood demon walking in front suddenly stopped and listened intently.

The leader of the thieves quietly came five paces away from him, squinting at a bush not far away. It was close to the place where the water was taken, and there were tangled bushes and vines everywhere, which were impassable at all, except for a gap in the middle, where two ancient trees more than 7 meters high and three people hugged each other were entrenched, and there were no weeds and vines or other plants within 10 meters around.

"Rope Demon?" After a brief analysis, the leader of the thieves whispered his judgment.

The 3 guys who followed immediately let out an inhaling sound, apparently frightened by the name.

The Tree Rope Demon, a special kind of existence between plants and living things, is also a carnivorous predator. Usually the roots are planted in the ground to disguise themselves as plants, but when prey passes by, the seemingly parasitic vine tentacles on the tree will strangle and prey like a noose. According to legend, it will also insert tentacles into the bodies of certain creatures, trap their souls in their bodies, and control them to act as their bodyguards and helpers.

Of course, like other plants, it is obviously more afraid of fire, so it often lurks in areas close to water sources. A 7-meter-tall tree rope demon like the one in front of him can reach a predation range of about 30 meters, which is also the maximum distance that its vine tentacles can extend.

Of course, this was only an inference from the Bloodfiend's solemn attitude by the leader of the thieves, and whether it was or not still needed to be verified, after all, the Rope Demon that did not attack was a tree in appearance.

The leader of the thieves tilted his head slightly, and the kobold warlock immediately stepped forward in a conscious manner, muttering a low incantation, and a fireball slowly generated in the palm of his hand.

Before he could throw the fireball over and test it, the two ancient trees had already reacted.

The upper end of the ancient tree is dense with branches and leaves, and it is so dense that you can't see the inside clearly. However, the fire elemental gathered 40 meters away let the two Tree Rope Demons know that their disguise had been seen through by the enemy.

As the branches and leaves shook, seven or eight creatures jumped out of the canopy of the ancient tree on the left, lined up in front of them, and shouted at the crowd. Most of them are petrified lizards, but there are also minotaurs and drow warriors.

Behind each creature is a wrist-thin gray vine that connects them to the Roper. From the drow's blank eyes, stiff expressions, and oddly twisted limbs, it was clear that they were all wretched creatures manipulated by the Tree Rope Demon.
