Chapter 16: Uninvited Guest In The Misty Swamp
The Kingdom of Rodan was one of the seven Human kingdoms. It was founded by one of the seven heroes of the ancient times, Rodan Lanke.
It was located in the most central part of the continent. With its well-developed transportation, rich products, and located beside the Dwarf kingdom and the Twilight Forest.
Therefore, it was also the gathering point of many mercenary groups and free adventurers!
The Misty Swamp in the southwest of the Twilight Forest is surrounded by strange fog all year round. With visibility of fewer than 10 meters and small swamps that may appear everywhere, it made this a famous forbidden place for mercenary!
A team of over 100 men was marching hard.
Among them are uniformly equipped knights and various mercenaries.
"d.a.m.n! I was bitten by the Vampiric Leech to the a.s.s!" At the front of the team, a rude and st.u.r.dy mercenary shouted.
A small and slim magician around him mumbled, followed by a small fireball shot, it burned the Vampiric Leech into a small pile of charcoal, but at the same time also burned the st.u.r.dy man"s b.u.t.t, causing him to jump up and down.
The mercenaries nearby mischievously teased him when they saw this scene!
A young little mercenary, It seems to be a teenage swordsman apprentice.
He looked at a middle-aged man with admiration and asked, "Chief Brian, If this mission is completed, can we really ask for a request from the king?"
"Haha, is it you this brat wants the King to marry the little princess to you?" Brian was a senior Warrior who is a little famous in the countries of the South.
He founded the Iron Sword Mercenary Group, which is also a Mithril rank mercenary group!
Mercenary and mercenary group ranks are managed by the Mercenary Guild. The plate of symbolic ident.i.ty is divided into Copper, Iron, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Mithril, Mountain Copper and Steel rank from low to high.
It was not long ago that the King issued an infinite level mission to the Mercenary Guild and the Wizards Guild (Originally, the mission is level-limited. Only the corresponding mercenary rank can accept the corresponding mission, while the infinite level does not have this restriction). That is to go to the Rita Mountains and save the little princess, Dina Lanke.
Those who bring her back will get a wish from the King! It can be seen how the king loved his little daughter!
At the same time, the Head of the Royal Guard Legion, Akyol, was also ordered to select one hundred elites to join the rescue!
As soon as the mission was released, it stirred the frenzy of numerous adventurers entered the Twilight Forest.
In the middle of the group, a team of people armed with neat white armor, carrying two-handed Greatswords. Although their armor is not white, the team was relatively systematic.
This was the first rescue team sent by the Kingdom of Rodan.
"Legion Chief, the spy who came back the day before yesterday reported that we have reached the swamp near to the middle boundary of the Twilight Forest. There may be a fierce giant crocodile nearby." An adjutant-like young knight said to the Head of Royal Guard Legion, Akyol.
This young knight was in white armor, with a handsome face and dark green hair with a little wave on it.
He emitted temperament of a n.o.ble young man. If this is put in human society, can definitely fascinate a bunch of girls!
His name is Claire La.r.s.en. His father is Duke La.r.s.en, the Finance Chancellor of the Rodan Kingdom.
He is originally a student in the Warrior Academy. This time, with the help of family relationship, he was put in the elite team, and he also brought over two senior swordsmen of the family to accompany him.
Although this mission was dangerous, it is also a good opportunity to acc.u.mulate merits!
Although in the consciousness of most chancellors and n.o.bles, the princess would definitely be dead after taken away by the Black Dragon.
They didn"t know that Little Elter was actually not so ferocious. Every time he robbed woman and jewels away, just because he is lazy and it is more convenient to take them altogether. Furthermore, most of the jewels were worn on beautiful women and young girls.
People mistakenly thought that Elter is a lascivious dragon, however, they did not know that he was still a young dragon within the long life of the dragon.
Those women who were robbed away were released by Elter, but none of them can leave the Twilight Forest alive.
This so-called elite of Rodan Kingdom, of course, there were not lacking third child from other n.o.ble families. Because the family third child generally cannot inherit the t.i.tle from the family.
During their adulthood, most of them will be put into the kingdom army to acc.u.mulate merit!
However, the number of the group has been eliminated by more than half after all the way to the Misty Swamp, the number has been less than half of the original now.
In desperation, they had to a.s.semble with a group of mercenaries met on the road to form a large group to advance together!
"Pa.s.s down the order. Be careful. If we really encounter powerful demonic beast, let those rude mercenaries fight at the front line! Our mission is to find the princess and bring the princess back to the kingdom. Try to avoid unnecessary battles!"
"Understood, Legion Chief!" Claire tightly grasped the sword in his hand.
The princess is the king"s pearl of the palm (precious daughter). She has been naturally beautiful and sweet since her childhood.
When the little princess appeared in the Capital Moon Academy for the first time, she had already captured his heart. Of course, it"s not just Claire. Most of the Academy"s boys had fallen to her as well.
Claire had decided to wait after the rescue of the princess. Then he can ask the king to marry her to him.
Just after Akyol finished speaking, he heard a fight from the front not far away from here!
