Chapter 134: The Ranger

Taking over Erastro's task, Henry quickly rose to take his leave. He still has a lot to prepare, and dealing with the surging orcs is not an easy job. The celebration lasted for a day and a night, and it was not until dawn that the crowds of revelers in the streets gradually dispersed. The hustle and bustle of the city slowly quieted down, and everyone went back to their beds and fell asleep.

Henry lay on the bed in the room, looking at some of the documents that Turn's had given him as he left. Sandaba is located in the eastern part of Silvermoon City, north of the Naese Mountains. There are six months of road closures that start with the first snow every year.

The current ruler of the city, Heim. The Dwarven Friends turned out to be a member of the Bloodaxe Mercenary Regiment, a wise leader who collected taxes fairly and used them to defend against orc attacks. On average, every two to three years, armies of orcs will swarm in. They wanted to break down the solid double-walled walls and seize the well-guarded volcanic fissures beneath Sandaba. There are the ingredients for the best magical weapons in the continent of Zuò Ferron.

He had read the information and felt that this mission was not dangerous. After all, Sandaba has been in war for a long time, and there has been no record of being breached for so many years. As a city capable of mass-producing weapons and armor, it is believed that the reserves of war materials must be very sufficient, even if they are surrounded for a few months, it will not be too much of a problem.

After a day's rest, Henry left Silvermoon City with his companions and plunged headlong into the Neser Mountains along the road to the east. They had to get out of here before the first snow fell, or once the road was blocked, all sorts of hungry beasts and monsters would emerge from the mountains and attack all visible creatures in the path.

The orc warrior sighed as he walked. Since being beaten down by Zuvoza in the bar. His love has always been very low. As a male who grew up in a tribe of barbarians. Vaughn saw this as a disgrace. He wished he hadn't been impulsive now. He stepped forward and patted the woman on the shoulder.

Henry walked over and patted him on the arm. "Rejoice, we'll head to Icewind Dale as soon as we're done with this mission, and you'll be back home soon."

"Head, I don't think I have the face to go back, if anyone in the tribe knows that I was knocked to the ground by a woman, I'm afraid I'll die laughing to death." As he spoke, Vaughn covered his face with his hand.

Silently hurried on the side, Amy was immediately unhappy when she heard this. "What's wrong with women, Shemboo is still a woman after witchcraft, and she alone blocked the invasion of all the red-robed mages of Serre. Do you think you're even more powerful than the red-robed mage chiefs? ”

Hearing the girl fight back so sharply. Vaughn smiled wryly. He also knew that his thoughts were a bit ridiculous, but some ideas in his mind were difficult to change once they were formed. Just as he was about to explain to Amy that the barbarian tribe was watching, there was a sound of fighting not far ahead.

"Vaughn and I went to see what was going on, and the others stayed here first." Saying that, Henry blessed himself with the iron skin technique and stealth technique, and ran towards the accident site. The orc warrior drank a potion of invisibility and followed closely.

Zuvosa. Bo Ling felt that she had been unlucky in the past few days, first being molested by a stupid fellow in the bar of Silvermoon City, and now meeting these trolls in the forest. She cursed under her breath as she ran forward as fast as she could, occasionally turning back and striking back with the short bow in her hand. The chasing troll had already had several arrows stuck in it. However, due to the lack of power of the shortbow, these guys have become a little sluggish except for their movements. It's not a big deal.

Soon the twenty arrows in her quiver were gone, and she drew the broad-bladed knife on her back and stared viciously at the trolls who were chasing after her, ready for hand-to-hand combat. No one can outrun these monsters in the forest, and it would be suicide to continue to escape. The sarcoma-covered trolls slowly surround with saliva, ready to tear their prey apart and enjoy a delicious meal of raw meat.

A big, hungry man pounced first, and Zuvosa turned sideways with agility, avoiding the outstretched hands, followed by a flash of cold light, and the guy was cut off by the waist. The troll split into two knots is not dead, and nothing but fire and strong acid can stop it from regenerating. The female ranger quickly made up for it, slicing the troll on the ground into several pieces.

The other trolls reacted quickly, and they let out a roar and rushed forward. When Zuvosa saw this scene in front of him, he knew that he must be unlucky today. She took a deep breath and began to swing the long knife incessantly, and in a few moments there were several more arms crawling on the ground. The female ranger gulped in the air, and this high-speed slash consumed a lot of energy.

A few minutes passed, and as the troll approached, the space she could move became smaller and smaller, and it wasn't long before she was thrown to the ground by a guy. Zuvosa closed her eyes, knowing that even a struggle could not undo her impending death. At this moment, there was a sudden fluctuation in the air, followed by a tall figure emerged, holding a two-handed greatsword, and at once he saw a monster preparing for a meal in two. Then he resisted the female ranger, turned around and ran desperately towards the rear.

Zuvosa was about to say thank you when the guy slammed her down under him. An explosion was heard from behind, and by the time the two men slowly stood up, several of the trolls had been burned to the ground. As soon as Henry unleashed the Fireball Technique, the invisibility effect disappeared. He walked over to the female ranger and examined several wounds.

"It's all skin trauma, and it seems that as long as it is treated, it will be fine." Saying that, Henry performed a healing spell. Vaughn stood aside a little embarrassed, apparently recognizing the woman as the culprit who had lost face for the previous two days. He quietly lowered the visor from his helmet and lowered his head without saying a word.

When the treatment was done, Zuwoza stood up and bowed to the two. "Thank you so much, without you, I would be food for these trolls."

Henry smiled and waved his hand. "You're so polite, passers-by walking in the wilderness are supposed to help each other. Also, can I ask you if you're heading to Sandaba? ”

"Yes, I heard that the mercenary group there is recruiting new members, and I plan to try my luck." With that, Zuvosa walked over and picked up his weapon from the ground.

"It just so happens that we are also going there to complete a commission, if you don't mind, you can also go together, and there are more people to take care of each other." Henry looked at her back and made an invitation, after all, one more person is one more power.

Zuboza nodded. "Very good mention, I couldn't agree more. The mountains are very dangerous and a group is the best option. As she spoke, she walked over to Vaughn and looked up and down, feeling that the guy with the helmet looked familiar. Do we know each other? I always felt like I'd seen you somewhere. ”

"No, we've never met, you've mistaken someone." The orc warrior deliberately lowered his voice and replied.

"I'm sorry, but I may have recognized the wrong person." After saying that, the female ranger saluted. Then he suddenly erupted, and all at once he took off Vaughn's helmet. She was startled and shouted, "Aren't you the guy who wants to take advantage of the bar!" ”

The orc warrior blushed and retorted, "I just wanted to treat you to a drink!" As a result, instead of thanking me, you hit me. ”

Zuvosa glared at him for a moment, then burst out laughing. She walked over to Vaughn and patted him on the shoulder. "From what you did just now, it can be seen that you are a good person, and the other day it was a misunderstanding. Also, thank you for hacking down that troll who wanted to bite me. ”

Vaughn breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, he could finally settle the matter. "Don't tell me about it, or it will be embarrassing for others to know that I was beaten down by a woman."

Zuvosa smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, I'm not a big mouth."

Henry looked at the two men with a smile on his face, and he felt that Vaughn's spring was coming. It can be seen that a female orc has some affection for him, and maybe after this mission, there will be a new companion in the team.

"Now let's go back the way we came, Amy, they're still waiting at the intersection." With that, Henry turned and walked out into the woods. It didn't take long for everyone to come together.

Zuvosa pointed to the big brown bear and asked Henry in surprise, "Is this your animal companion?" It's huge. ”

"Yes, it's called Ares. The parrot's name is Bamberk, the girl's name is Amy, you can call me Henry, and finally Vaughn the warrior. Henry briefly introduced the members of the team.

Zubosa looked at Ares and Henry with complicated eyes, and finally smiled self-deprecatingly. "I also once had a partner. Forget it, let's leave these things alone, let's hurry up now, the first snow will come soon. With that, he took the lead at the front of the line.

Henry stared at her back and felt that this female ranger must have an untold story. However, he didn't plan to ask, after all, everyone has their own past and secrets. Maybe after a long time together, Zuboza will talk about these things himself.

The team soon walked on the rugged road in the mountains. Except for the noisy parrot, who occasionally told some lewd jokes, everyone else remained silent and walked their own way with their heads bowed. The female ranger is at the forefront, constantly observing the various footprints on the ground in order to spot the monsters that like to ambush as soon as possible. (To be continued......)
