Throne Steps

Although Lone Wolf and Rock Eagle are both at the top of the list of mercenary unions, the layout of the base camp is still slightly different.However, the places where the two mercenary groups are stationed are very different, and the styles are not very similar, and it is normal to have differences in appearance.

The team of students was marched under escort.Li Chen observed the terrain calmly, and kept paying attention to the passing Lone Wolf members.The lone wolves seemed to be used to the fact that strangers were brought in, but probably because the dozen or so were children this time, they would still cast meaningful glances from time to time.

After walking for a while, the layout of the camp did not become denser or more fortified, but approached the foot of the mountain visible to the naked eye.Even if he was chased up and down and didn't know the direction before, Li Chen could of course recognize that this was not the Samuel Mountains.It is very common for a mercenary camp to be built against a mountain, and it is even possible to arrange warehouses, metallurgy, pharmaceuticals and other functions here because it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.However, Pesa's group of "foreign bastards" who were arrested and brought in were taken directly here, which made people a little puzzled.

Most of the scattered mercenary habitats are made of weaving, wood, and stone materials. After seven or eight turns, the students were brought into a different building.This building is taller and larger than the other tents nearby, and it is built in a serious manner, but it is not the logistics office that Li Chen imagined.As soon as the door of the building opened, there was a small hall, empty, with no windows for lighting, and no one seemed to take care of the flickering light stones.There is a side door on the side of the small hall, leading to a nearly unlit three-foot staircase.The students huddled up and turned around to another hall.Although this place is bigger than the first floor, and the light stones on the two rows of wall lamps are also bright, the students who have passed through the gloomy front cannot relax a little because of the brightness.

There are several people sitting or standing in the hall, and the leading man walking in front talks to the person sitting in the upper position.The sitting man has a grim face and a slightly rough figure. He is wearing a long gown with soft armor, his left hand rests on the side of his face, and his sword hangs on his right side.Li Chen squeezed into the group of students, looked thoughtfully at his arms, thought for a while calmly, and came up with a guess.

——I'm afraid the right palm is a prosthesis, but I don't know what about the arm.

They talked back and forth a few times, then stopped talking, turned around and looked back at the students.

"Take off."

It was the man sitting in the upper seat who spoke. The students didn't know whether they were nervous or afraid, and they didn't respond for a while.The mercenaries who followed saw the dullness of these youngsters, and booed: "Take it off, do you want me to pick it up!"

The magician next to the booer said: "You are so good at it?"

"Even if he likes hot girls with plump buttocks, maybe he will follow suit, right?" The man sitting in the first seat sneered, "Someone made a good start, and those of us want to try something new."

What he said was eccentric, and the lone wolves present laughed out loud, sweeping meaningful glances at the students.The other cubs don't quite understand it yet, but Li Chen understands everything.He has been in the hands of a perverted homosexual for more than ten years, and with the blatant insult of these wolves, it is hard not to notice the meaning.However, he naturally did not remind others of his intention.You can tell from the tone that they are just playing tricks.Even if it's true, it's not a big deal for this group of wolves to play with a few students, so he should not attract attention first.

The lone wolves laughed for a while, then quickly turned away their joking eyes, stared at the students and said, "Still taking off? If your hands and feet are useless, it's better to dispose of them."

The students were terrified by the look in the eyes of the lone wolf, but no one could really excuse them obediently.As the captain with the highest grade and the best skills, Xia Luo had to ask, "What do you want to do?" even if he felt something was wrong.

This is simply nonsense.The man sitting on the first seat narrowed his eyes and was about to speak, but the side door suddenly opened, and a man wrapped in a robe stood at the door and nodded towards the man.

The man sneered: "Okay. The little quails huddle together and don't move, so they will pluck their hairs one by one with hot water."

The mercenary who had been watching the play stretched out his hand to grab a student who was standing beside him. Although the frightened child did not scream, the extent of his movement immediately attracted everyone's attention.Xia Luo could hardly hide his calmness on the surface, and shouted: "Don't touch him!"

Perhaps annoyed by the chirping of the little quails, the leading man who led them back frowned, took two steps out and grabbed Xia Luo, and with a backhand pinch, Xia Luo's staff fell to the ground with a bang. .Although Xia Luo was not considered weak, he really couldn't resist at such a close range.

"You are nagging, you go in first." The man impatiently teased him, dragged Xia Luo a few steps to the side door, pushed one of them, and sent it into the side door.

The other students saw that Xia Luo was easily manipulated, and their originally strong resistance also died down.The lone wolves kicked in one by one every once in a while. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer students still huddled together, none of the students who went in came out.

Li Chen only entered in the second half of the journey.The room is small, still has no windows, and the light is slightly dim.In addition to the robed man who had shown up before, two other mercenaries were also inside, a warrior and a magician.As soon as the door closed behind him, Li Chen saw the clothes piled up next to him, which looked very familiar to him.Looking at the pile of clothes on the other side and the scattered things on the table, he immediately understood most of it.

On another table stood four rows of reagent racks, six racks in a row, a typical short rack, and the reagents were more than half empty.The mercenary leaning against the table spoke, but it was a familiar word: "Take off."

Li Chen didn't bother to pretend to be a little quail anymore, so he took it off with a rustle.When he got to the inner garment, he paused, but seeing that the grown-ups meant to continue, he continued to lighten to the end.

He wore some chains of broken magic crystals on his hands and feet as usual, but due to the previous escape, the color of the magic crystals basically faded away.The simple pendant on the neck still contains the teleportation array for escape, but it is no longer the one that was worn around the neck of "Black Swan" back then.In fact, Li Chen had countless chances to escape, but he had his own plan in his heart, so he didn't tear off the pendant and smash it.

The tail of the magician's staff raised the pendant: "What is this?"

Li Chen obediently let the staff lift the pendant away, and replied: "The pendant with three-dimensional patterns after losing the magic power."

Two years ago, Saenz smashed out the teleportation array in front of these wolves.Although this news was not widely known to everyone, it was indeed a commotion on a certain level for quite a while.Even though due to the weather and the speed of Saenz, the shape of the sealing teleportation array would not be leaked, but this matter came to Li Chen's mind, and it didn't take long before he came up with a preventive countermeasure.

Therefore, the basic principle of Fang Jing's production was handed over to Yan Ying.

Of course, cats can't teach tigers to climb trees, and it's impossible for Li Chen to tell the truth.What Rockhawk currently has is nothing but deduction of the elemental response mechanism that has been verified successfully. It is neither able to grasp the principle nor go further on this basis.For example, Yan Ying knows that 3×3=9, but does not know that this is because 3+3+3=9, so it is difficult to understand what 3×4 is equal to.

Most of the currently popular accessories come from chambers of commerce allied with Rock Eagle, and the role of the small square crystal is basically the same as that given to Saenz for the first time.Although the real purpose of rock eagles is to pop out of the magic circle after being smashed, so far, these products are still produced by Li Chen's personal limited number of objects, which are far from the standard that can be sold in large quantities, and it is impossible to spread the wind. The leakage is known to all.

Generally speaking, in Retia now, few people know the way of using "small square crystal products can be smashed".

Therefore, even though the pendant was in the hands of the mercenaries, Li Chen was still relatively calm.The head of the magician's staff was raised, the small square crystal slid down and hung in the magician's hand, a small amount of magic power was turned in, and the school emblem of Pesa College appeared immediately - this is a relatively popular style near Pesa.

The magician threw the little square crystal on the table and put it together with the original pieces of jewelry, and then signaled Li Chen to take off the other pieces of jewelry on his body and put them there, and then remained silent.Li Chen looked at those gadgets a few more times, finally found what he wanted to see, and then looked away calmly.

Another mercenary made Li Chen turn around naked and asked him to change his clothes, then picked up a potion on the test tube rack, walked over and squeezed Li Chen's chin and drank it.

Li Chen is very familiar with this smell - magic stagnation agent.No wonder the mercenary wants to pinch him to drink water, I'm afraid the former classmates are not willing to cooperate obediently.

He pointed to the door at the other end and went out.

The students quickly assembled at the other end of the door.Although Li Chen was not familiar with everyone, he found the problem at a glance;

There were quite a few little quails, but Xia Luo who took the lead was missing.Originally, Li Chen didn't intend to join a team with any acquaintances, but Yan Ying's deputy head, Ka Jia, was entrusted in the early years, and Li Chen had a new heart, so he and Xia Luo joined the team middle.Now he clearly remembered that there was a Charlot pendant on the table in the hut, but the little magician didn't come to gather - he really had to think more.

Regarding the territory of the lone wolf, Li Chen "knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers to go to the mountains with tigers", and other children who were originally unwilling to come are naturally more panicked by the disappearance of Xia Luo.When the mercenaries signaled the group of students to leave quickly, a little soldier mustered up his courage and asked, "Where's our captain?"

The mercenary raised his leg and gave the little soldier a kick: "What nonsense!"

This kick was not considered heavy, but the little soldier was almost kicked away.Seeing this situation, the little quails who were still wondering about Xia Luo's disappearance shrank even more.

Li Chen moved slowly with the team, and could only hope that Xia Luo didn't say such bastard words as "My brother is Kaga from Yanying".Rock Eagle and Lone Wolf didn't have a good relationship at first, and they got married 4 years ago because of a fight for a certain treasure. Can the enemy be jealous when they meet?

By the way, Li Chen actually suspected that the two groups were fighting over the information on the "dragon remains", but Yan Ying's mouth was too tight to pry open, so this matter has not yet been settled.

Under the leadership of the mercenaries, the student team marched towards the foot of the previously seen mountains.Originally, when looking at it from a distance, I couldn’t see anything strange, but when I got closer, it revealed the original face of the mountain——

The lower part of the slope toward the camp was barren, and the exposed limestone shone white in the sun.A huge man-made hole at the foot of the mountain is impressive, and the dark depths are hard to see, like the mouth of a giant beast.Two crude little tracks protruded from the depths of the giant beast's throat, like spit out letters, and the metal cart rattled on the tracks.Not far from the entrance of the cave stands a house made of stone and mud, and there are scattered shacks nearby, which are almost unobstructed.Around here, large and small stones and mud piled up two small slopes.Someone pushed a small cart and transported a small part of those soil shovels away.

No one will not understand what this place is.
