"With so many people guarding this place, if we just go over like this, it would attract attention. It would be bad if the people from Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment recognized you, but they might even recognize me." Seeing that these people were surrounding the entrance so tightly that it couldn't be breezed, Ge Yan immediately had a bitter face. He didn't want to be the scapegoat that killed Carlos and the other two, and even more so, didn't want to be targeted wherever he went due to his eyesight and hair color.
"Wait for me here." Rex left with these words.
If Ge Yan had not trusted him more, he would have thought that Yue Yang would leave him behind and just leave. However, after being together with him for the past two days, he still had a kind of blind confidence in Rex, so he decided to hide and watch the show.
The two groups of people guarding the entrance of the Tasha Forest were both trusted people by their respective captains, and they were also relatively strong, so they were all in order to prevent the person who captured the Shadow Winged Tiger from actually appearing here. When the time came, they would fight and if the person they sent wasn't strong enough and was snatched by their opponent, it would be impossible for them to snatch it back, so Regiment Commander Locke had sent his trusted aide Ma Wen over, while Black Crow sent his assistant Donglin, whose strength was only second to his.
Right now, their common opponent was a group of free adventurers. As the number of adventurers increased, both Ma Wen and Eastwood felt a lot of pressure.
At first, Mercenary Regiment's reputation had already been damaged by the Magic Beast tide, but now, they were dissatisfied with the sealing of the forest. Ma Wen and Eastwoods seemed strong on the surface, but they were actually a little worried.
"Everyone listen to me, the reason why Black Wolf and Crow have two Mercenary Regiment bullying us lone adventurers is because they rely on their strength. In their eyes, we are just a bunch of insignificant people, and they simply go too far, I suggest that we attack together. With so many of us, how can we be afraid of them?" An adventurer stood out from the crowd, his indignant words resonating with many people.
There were indeed people who had suffered a loss to their Mercenary Regiment before, and there were some who were looked down upon by them. There were also people who were already disgusted by their disdain towards others, and for a moment, the sound of their agreement nearly drowned out all other sounds.
Seeing that they were ready to make a move, Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment and crow Mercenary Regiment were both a little worried. If they really started a fight and their own captain was not here, they might not be able to deal with them.
"He's right, we can't remain silent. I saw them let off a few people with some background just now, but Black Wolf and Crow only bullied us because we have no power, why should we swallow our anger? They are human, don't tell me we aren't human anymore?"
"Well said, all of us will attack together, who cares about that black wolf crow, I don't believe, even Alice's Mercenary Regiment has never sealed off this kind of bird thing, why the hell are you two hanging on the back of a crane, it's just a Mercenary Regiment that was built only in the last ten years, count as a bird!"
Hearing this, Black Wolf and Crow's men were instantly enraged.
"What did you say? Say it again to your father if you dare?" One of the Black Wolf's mercenary who couldn't suppress his violent temper glared at the man who said this. If it wasn't for his companion pulling him, he would have already rushed over and attacked.
On the surface, Black Wolf and Crow seem to have [A] Class Mercenary Regiment, but who doesn't know that you two have the least amount of qualifications? Only you two dare to compete with an established power like the Alice, so you guys aren't afraid to laugh your teeth off. "
"You're courting death!"
The man sneered and was about to counterattack when a loud voice came from behind.
"I don't know who the person seeking death is, but I heard that the grandson of Alice's Vice Guild Leader Tangles, Alva, died in the Magic Beast tide at Evil Wind Mountain Range. This matter was personally witnessed by someone."
Hearing this, everyone forgot to look for the person who just spoke and exploded after a few seconds of silence.
Tangles, that madman's grandson actually died in the Magic Beast tide? They must have heard wrongly. Tangles treasured his grandson so much, how could they let him come here alone with Tasha Forest?
Almost everyone knew that Alice was a concentration camp for madmen, and their biggest feature was to protect their shortcoming, and even at the risk of their lives. Just like Tangles, his precious grandson was practically a very abnormal person, and if that person was right, when Tangles's grandson really died in the Magic Beast tide, the two Mercenary Regiment, Black Wolf and Crow, would probably never have peace.
When Ma Wen and Eastwood thought of Tangles, or even the entire Alice, their faces immediately turned pale white.
"That's not it, that person must be trying to take the chance to provoke us, how can Tangles's grandson die that easily, and we didn't even get a single piece of information, that person must be spreading rumors, the purpose is to mess things up." The smartest Ma Wen immediately denied the news, because he knew that even if it was true, they could not admit it, but he did not know that his last words of denial were actually the closest to the truth.
"That's right, we can also testify that Tangles's grandson did not appear here." Donglin had already guessed Ma Wen's motive. At this point in time, the only thing he could do was to echo him and not let this matter spread further. As long as he took the initiative, there would be room for manoeuvre.
You guys just don't want the news to spread, that's all. You guys have offended the Alice, so they will definitely not let you off. Everyone listen, the Black Wolf and Crow are finished, so we don't need to be afraid of them anymore.
The adventurers who had seen through their goal all pulled out their weapons and pointed them at the people of Black Wolf and Crow. Their words were filled with great motivation and immediately provoked the courage of many people. They raised their weapons and rushed over one after another.
It was already too late for Ma Wen and Eastwood to stop them, a few adventurers rushed to their front and had no choice but to pull out their swords to fight, the scene immediately became chaotic, it was unknown who saw the blood, and several people were injured in succession, some people's eyes immediately turned red from killing, and the situation immediately became unmanageable. Ma Wen knew that it was someone else's scheme, but he could not stop them.
Rex, who was in charge of everything, returned to Ge Yan's side.
Ge Yan's jaw dropped. He couldn't close his mouth for a long time, he just couldn't wrap his head around it, Rex's single sentence actually made them fight, and the information he had heard before, could actually have such a huge impact. If it was him, he probably wouldn't have thought that the two could be linked.
The two of them took advantage of the chaos and left the Tasha Forest. Almost no one noticed, but the two of them were not the only ones who took advantage of this situation.
By the time Regiment Commander Locke and Black Crow had led their men here, the adventurers had already fled. The so-called cooperation was only to help them offend even more people.
Black Crow's expression was as ugly as his name. If he knew that cooperating with Black Wolf would end up like this, he wouldn't agree to anything. In the end, he left with his remaining subordinates without even looking back.
"Captain, there's something I have to tell you." Ma Wen walked to Regiment Commander Locke with a worried expression. He knew that the leader was angry, but he had to say it out loud, otherwise, if he waited for another two hours, there would be an even worse result.
"What is it?" Regiment Commander Locke had a gloomy face. He knew that this could not be blamed on Ma Wen and no one would have thought that such a thing would happen.
"It's Ailee …"
"Captain!" He was one of the people that was sent by the Regiment Commander Locke to find Sayin and Jimmy after arriving at Tasha Forest. He was in an extremely sorry state, and his body was covered in blood, so it was obvious that he had experienced a dangerous change.
Regiment Commander Locke's gaze immediately turned to him, his expression dark, "Why is there only you, where are the others?"
The mercenary cried out, "They … they're all dead."
"What happened? I told you to go find Young Master Sayin, didn't you find him?" Regiment Commander Locke's rough and crude face suddenly trembled. He didn't even realize that when he said those words, there was a trace of nervousness on his face. Since he couldn't catch the Holy Beast, he only had this hope now.
"There's also this …" The mercenary took out two swords.
Regiment Commander Locke suddenly opened his eyes wide, snatching one of the swords, his breathing became ragged: "This is Young Master Sayin's treasured sword, you have found him?"
"We found these two swords in the Moonlight Ridge. They fell near the den of the Demonic Gale Wolf. We even found Young Master Sayin's jade plates there." The mercenary took out a bloodied jade tablet, this jade tablet signified Sayin's identity, like a treasure sword that would not leave his side. With these two items as proof, Sayin would definitely be in trouble, as for Jimmy, no one would care about his life.
Regiment Commander Locke's vision turned black. He had never thought that he would be forced into such a desperate situation.
Ma Wen immediately held the Guild Leader and asked, "Other than Young Master Sayin and Jimmy's things, did you not find anything else for the both of them?"
The mercenary hesitated for a moment and nodded his head, but he remembered that they had already found the swords of the two young masters, and the Magic Beast that had eaten the corpse had confirmed that it was the Demonic Gale Wolf. The two young masters' strengths were not high, it was impossible for them to escape from the Demonic Gale Wolf's mouth, but he did not voice out his doubts.
"Captain, it looks like Carlos and Ariel are still alive." Ma Wen said in a lucky tone.
"You go back to the town first." Regiment Commander Locke passed the treasured sword and sign to Ma Wen, his eyes filled with an unyielding will. He couldn't give up until the very last moment, but he, who was holding onto a sliver of hope, didn't know that there was still a more hopeless news waiting for him in Triese Town.
