Chapter 21: West Frank Gorge
This is a medium-sized caravan composed of nearly one hundred and fifty people, the number of caravans is not very large, but Wu Song can see that the comprehensive quality of the entire caravan is very strong, he used the auxiliary device to observe the caravan personnel on the way from the front of the caravan to the end, but he was a little surprised to find that all the members of this caravan are basically spirit masters, and the lowest has the strength of four or five level abilities, which is quite rare in the caravan that Wu Song has come into contact with.
Generally, the caravan walking in the wilderness is composed of three parts, the largest personnel base is the mercenary group members, they are the main combatants of the caravan, and the tasks of protecting the caravan goods and repelling mutant creatures and robber gangs are completed by these people. Wu Song observed the ratio of personnel and found that there were almost eighty or ninety mercenaries from the Blue Scorpion Mercenary Group hired by this Kadomo caravan.
In addition to mercenaries, another major combat group of the caravan is the adventurer group, most caravans will recruit a certain number of adventurers before traveling, although the overall combat ability of these adventurers is not as strong as the mercenaries, but the adventurers who are favored by the caravan generally have good personal combat ability. There are more than twenty adventurers in the Kadomo caravan, and the personal combat ability of these adventurers is even stronger than that of the blue scorpion mercenaries, like the thief who sneered at Wu Song before, he has the strength of a second-level superpower.
In the caravan, mercenaries and adventurers are combat groups, in addition to these mercenaries, the caravan will also carry some caravan insiders, most of these personnel are not spirit masters, he is not responsible for fighting, only responsible for driving cars and living and many other adventurers and mercenaries disdain to do groceries, and to Wu Song's greatest surprise, in this Kadoma caravan, even these miscellaneous servants have good abilities!
"Mr. Thief, don't be angry with Sister Lina, she doesn't like to speak, but she is a good person, and the people in our caravan trust her." The young Ramo led the wildebeest to Wu Song, and immediately gave Wu Song a friendly smile. Sister Lina in the young man's mouth is the female team leader who knows the bald Domi, according to Wu Song's observation, she should be a fifth-level superpower, and her strength is enough to rank in the top three in the entire team!
"I know!" Wu Song smiled very sincerely, he confirmed that the leader named Lina was a good person, if that woman had enough bad intentions, then Wu Song, who was a thief, would probably not come to the rear of the idle at this time, but was sent to the front line to explore the way.
Whether it is the mercenary of the scorpion or the adventurer of Kadoma, they are not easy to get along with, but in fact, Wu Song has a very nourishing life in this caravan, and the reason is that these two waves of people do not take Wu Song, a level 10 thief, very seriously.
A level 10 ability can be called a quite remarkable existence in Mill Town, but in Kadomo Town, although a level 10 ability person cannot be said to be running all over the street, it is not a very powerful guy, so when the little pony Ramo brought Wu Song to the end of the team, except for Ramo occasionally chatting with Wu Song, no one remembered Wu Song, the little thief of the halfway team.
From Milltown to Boulder, it's technically a two-day, one-night journey. Most of them are mainly in the vast plains, the bare plains are relatively unobstructed, and the safety factor is relatively high, except for encountering large insect tides and those horse thieves who come and go without a trace, with the combat power of this Cadomo caravan can basically be unimpeded, and in this not too long distance, the most dangerous place is a place called West Francian Gorge.
The location of the West Frankish Gorge is somewhat special, to the east of it is the Frankish Mountains, which stretch for thousands of miles, which is a paradise for mutants, and to the west of the West Frankish Gorge is the green-skinned hills, which is the area controlled by the green-skinned mole people, and the green-skinned mole people are humanoid mutants with high IQ, these guys are very talented in engineering, and what they are best at is making some traps and the like. The Mole People have a deep hatred for humans, and it is very whimsical to borrow from them, but the Mole People are very timid and basically dare not leave the greenskin hills, so the West Francian Gorge has become an important passage connecting the north and the south!
The West Francian Gorge is not a very long stretch, and caravans from Milltown to Boulder are usually the first day to cross the West Frankish Gorge and rest overnight in the northern part of the valley, and then go directly to Boulder the next day.
In fact, Wu Song walked quite comfortably on this part of the road before arriving at the West Frank Canyon, although he also encountered a lot of mutant insects on the road, but in general, the number and strength of these insects were not very good, and the Blue Scorpion Mercenary Group easily eliminated these insects, and the others had no chance to do it at all.
Wu Song, this guy is a lazy person, since others have not come to the door, he will never take the initiative to ask for help, Wu Song's purpose is very clear, that is, to follow the caravan all the way to Boulder City, as for helping this kind of thing, unless the other party strongly asks for it, otherwise this lazy person can hide.
Wu Song's good days only lasted for half a day, because this caravan was very capable of fighting, and did not waste too much time along the way, so at noon the caravan had already come to the south side of the West Frank Gorge, and then the caravan was stationed in place, according to the custom, the leader Lina sent a group of people to enter the interior of the Frank Canyon to investigate first.
West Francian Canyon belongs to the junction of the Greenskin Hills and the Frankish Mountains, which is the frontier of the Mole People's attack by the mutant beasts in the Frankish Mountains, so from time to time some Mole People will set some traps and other things in the West Frankish Canyon to prevent mutant beasts from running across the boundary, and when the caravan passes through here, it is also very likely to trigger these traps and cause losses, so almost every caravan will send someone into the canyon to clean up the traps when passing here.
The Frank Canyon in Western Europe already belongs to the edge of the Frank Mountains, in fact, there are no mutant beasts that are too strong here, so when the team leader Lina was exploring, he just sent a team of five people into the canyon, and the members of this five-person team are all thieves, four of them are adventurers and one is a member of the blue scorpion, and the leader of the team is the thief who sneered at Wu Song before.
It was originally a sure thing for five thieves with the lowest level 10 ability to enter the West Frankish Gorge, but no matter what kind of veteran they were, there were times when they stumbled. The team of thieves went in and went around, and it took only ten minutes to die, and when they came back, there was one less adventurer, and Lina was surprised to know that the guy was exploring the path due to his slightly poor perception, and he accidentally touched the mechanism, and was directly pierced into a sieve by an arrow net mechanism.
