C236 Expand the Limit(2)
The guards at the city gate were indeed more than what he had seen at the north gate a few days ago. They were divided into six phalanxes, all around the city gate.
In order to prevent the summer heat, there were even three small pavilions under the city gate to take in the cool air so that the guards could rest during shifts.
Yu Yue scanned the guards. The strength of these guards varied, and most of them were at the same level.
Although their level was not high, their discipline was strict. The entire area was controlled in an orderly manner, and no one dared to act rashly. This was the difference between the army and the Mercenary Group. If the ordinary members of the Mercenary Group were all of the same rank, then they could only be considered a mob. But the army was different. A large number of standardized training guards could become a strong force when they gathered together.
After this period of regulation and killing the chicken to warn the monkeys, the number of people who dared to go against the guards decreased. The search continued in an orderly manner.
Following the footsteps of the large group, Yu Yue's carriage gradually arrived at the front of the group.
His eyes constantly "inadvertently" swept across the group of guards to prevent any accidents from happening.
A familiar figure suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
Why is he here!
In his field of vision, a handsome young man wearing a blue robe walked out of the tent.
This guy was an ally he had formed when he was carrying out the mission of Iron Blade Alliance. He was an ice mage with a mysterious background, Bai Lang!
Bai Lang and a group of guards came out of the tent at the same time.
In this group of guards, besides Bai Lang, there was another person who stood out from the rest.
He was also wearing armor, but unlike the standard armor of the guards in the city, he was wearing a fiery-red armor with a huge lion's head embedded in front of his chest.
Just from the appearance, it could be seen that this armor was definitely not low level, and it must be very valuable.
He looked at this person's face. This person's face was also very familiar to him.
After thinking carefully, he remembered that this person was the man who appeared in Tree Devil Valley - Chris's superior, the leader of the Mercenary Group's escort!
He had a thick beard, a square face, and two straight eyebrows that were as sharp as blades. His eyes were sharp, and he gave off the aura of a dragon and tiger.
At this moment, he was walking side by side with Bai Lang among the guards, as if they were talking and laughing.
This leader of the Mercenary Group actually knew Bai Lang.
Who exactly was this Bai Lang? How could he even know such a person?
One should know that this leader of the Mercenary Group wasn't a native of Qiluo City. He had come here from a different place on a mission. If Bai Lang could recognize such a person, it was enough to show how big his connections were.
Although Bai Lang knew him and called him brother. However, his appearance was definitely not good news for Yue and the two elves.
It would be fine if he did not recognize him, but once he recognized him, he would expose his identity as a summoner with great strength. The lie of him transporting grain and doing small business would be exposed in an instant.
How much money could he earn by transporting grain? It would probably only be enough to sustain his food and clothing. There was no comparison at all with the harvest after a battle with a BOSS.
At that time, it would be very difficult to explain.
Did he need to change his way of saying things?
However, everything was assembled according to the "poor coachman transporting grain." The old horse carriage, the old horse that was as thin as firewood, and the carriage of grass behind the carriage were all solid evidence. Who would have the free time to carry a carriage of grain out of the city?
He had always thought that his disguise was not bad, but who would have thought that he would kill his way out of Bai Lang, the stumbling block.
Seeing Bai Lang walking over and talking to the bearded commander, cold sweat gradually seeped out of the hand holding the horsewhip.
Bai Lang, the bearded mercenary and the rest of the mercenaries walked towards the inspection team.1
"Bai Lang, brother. Thank you for your hard work this time. You even specially came here to carry out a mission with me. "
"No, brother Sun, you and I will meet in Qiluo City. This is an unexpected fate. I have nothing to do these days, so I might as well come here and see Big Brother. Besides, I am also very interested in the matter of the elves escaping. "
The bearded man's name was Sun Liangjun, and he was the leader of the Great Whale Mercenary Group.
Sun Liangjun smiled bitterly. "I am very troubled about this. Those two elves escaped under the watch of the Great Whale Mercenary Group. This is destroying the reputation of the Great Whale Mercenary Group! Really... Sigh, just thinking about it made my head hurt. If we can't catch them, we will have to pay a lot of money for this mission. "
Bai Lang said," Don't take all the responsibility on yourself, brother Sun. I heard that because of that fatty from the Merlin Chamber of Commerce, mei Qiguo acted on his own and replaced most of the people you sent to defend the city with his people. That's why he let the elves escape. If it's true, he should be more responsible. "
When Mei Qiguo was mentioned, fury appeared in Sun Liangjun's eyes." That dog thing. He's really good at doing nothing! " Then, he sighed. "Although the responsibility is not entirely on us, he said. However, this mission was accepted by our Great Whale Mercenary Group. The outside world will naturally only blame us for our failure. In short, the reputation of the Mercenary Group will be greatly affected. "
Bai Lang waved his hand and said. "Aye, let's go over there. Let's not talk about that anymore. However, forget about the mission and other related matters, we haven't seen elves escape for decades. It's really a new thing. "
Sun Liangjun looked at Bai Lang's interested expression and could not help but shake his head.
"You, although you are powerful, sometimes you feel like a child."
Then he smiled and swept away the gloominess from before. "But it is true. If it wasn't for the fact that you are connected to the Mercenary Group, I would definitely be interested in this matter. Elves, such a rare race is hiding in the human world. Whether they can escape or not is something I really want to know. "
Bai Lang raised his head and looked at the tall and heavy city wall. "Elves, I think if they really want to escape, with their elven magic, the garrison here might not be enough."
Sun Liangjun shook his head and said, "That's not possible. One of the two elves is a young female elf who has no fighting ability. The other elf may be powerful, but she might be on par with me. But when she was imprisoned, the Merlin Chamber of Commerce specially fed her pills regularly to reduce her strength. With the suppression of the pills, she was unable to exert her full strength. She might not even be able to exert thirty percent of her strength, so there is no possibility of forcefully breaking through. "
"If that's the case, but that pill can't possibly directly cripple her strength, right? There will be a day when the medicinal strength will disappear, then..."
"There is indeed such a possibility, but this point will also be ruled out. There is still half a month until the medicinal effects are over. During this period of time, the search network we set up in the city will definitely be able to find those Elves. As long as they are still in the city, no matter where they are, they will not be able to escape our search!"
" I see... "Bai Lang raised his head and looked at the white clouds floating in the sky. He sighed. "Actually, excluding other factors, I would rather see those innocent elves escape. After all, once they are captured, they will welcome... It will only be a hellish life. Since your encirclement is so tight, if there is no one else to help them... Their only fate is to be captured."
