Chapter 642
642 – Slaughter
“The demon army has retreated, please go back! The Green Forest is a forbidden place for humans . We do not welcome you anymore!” When Yang Feng’s team reached the entrance to the elven forest, they were surrounded by a dozen plus elven soldiers . The leader figure of these elves, a level-8 fighter (level-2 Warlock) spoke coldly .
Mana fumed: “These sharpears are a bunch of scoundrels! We came from so far away to help them, yet they treat us like this . What a disagreeable bunch . ”
Brigina smiled and said: “Forget it, let’s go . Anyway, there are still many missions in the Green Forest area . And there are many demonic beasts we can hunt . ”
Demonic beasts are everywhere in the Green Forest area . For a Star of Fate who likes to fight, and can quickly increase their cultivation base in battle, this place is simply a paradise .
Yang Feng smiled and said: “How about we go to the beastman tribe? I heard that the beastmen are short on salt, so I got 20 carts of salt from a friend . As long as we transport the 20 carts of salt to the beastmen, and then bring back their specialty products, we’ll be able to make a 20 fold profit in a round trip . We should be able to earn 40,000 gold coins . ”
As the Demon Lord, Yang Feng has countless spies scattered in the various kingdoms and in the Green Forest, and so he can easily obtain information through the spies that ordinary people cannot .
Salt is actually a strategic good that the three human kingdoms have banned from exporting to the beastmen . The beastmen living in the Green Forest need to import a lot of salt every year . Only the elves who live on fruit and have special physiques do not need salt .
Mana’s eyes lit up and appeared to turn into gold coins, and she pleaded with Brigina: “40,000 gold cons! Brigina, split him with me 50-50? No, 10-90 is okay . Split him with me 10-90 . ”
A gold coin can be exchanged for about 200 copper coins . For an ordinary adventurer, the 40,000 gold coins are a huge sum of money .
In the Eternal Continent, a female tutor’s annual income only amounts to 5 gold coins, which is enough for a person to lead a fairly good life .
Holding Yang Feng’s arm, Brigina refused firmly: “No!”
Mana lamented: “Dammit!”
Yang Feng’s group of three hired 20 plus adventurers in the Green Cliff City to form an escort team, and then headed for the beastman tribe .
Six days later .
When the convoy was going through a tract of woods, a firework suddenly rose and a strange explosion sounded .
When Brigina heard the sound, her face changed greatly, and she clasped the Absolute Piercing Dragon Spear and shouted loudly: “Enemy attack, prepare to fight!”
The 20 plus adventurers of the escort team drew their weapons, formed a circle, and watched the surroundings, alert .
The underbrush rustled, and a figure flew out . It is the female thief Mana .
Looking pale, Mana shouted: “Enemies, there are more than 60 enemies moving this way . ”
The countenances of the adventurers changed dramatically when they heard that there are more than 60 enemies approaching .
A man of average build wearing a thin leather armor and carrying a dagger walked out from the woods and said with a cold smile: “No, we aren’t merely 60, but 135 people!”
From various parts of the woods, adventurers holding different weapons appeared and surrounded Yang Feng and his party at once .
“Sir, run away . We will try to buy you some time!” The captain of the Bull Squad, a tall level-7 fighter that looks like a straightforward and simple chap quickly approached Yang Feng and shouted loudly .
“You worked hard, you can die now!” Yang Feng smiled slightly, waved his sword, and cut the captain of the Bull Squad in half at the waist .
After the captain was cut in half at the waist, he didn’t die immediately, but instead issued miserable, hair-raising screams .
Seeing Yang Feng murder the captain of the Bull Squad, the shocked Brigina asked: “Randt, what are you doing?”
“Captain! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you killed the captain! I will kill you!”
Eyes shot with blood, the five adventurers of the Bull Squad rushed towards Yang Feng .
“The Bull Squad are an accomplices of the bandits . Coveting the 20 carts of salt along with the horses pulling them, they colluded with other adventurers to take everything in one go . Therefore, I killed him! Among the 24 adventurers we hired, apart from 6 adventurers, the rest were roped in by them, and became traitors . Brigina, don’t trust anyone but us . Use your power to kill all the sc.u.m that has tarnished the reputation of adventurers!”
Yang Feng smiled slightly, took a step forward, brandished his sword, and a resplendent sword ray cut the five Bull Squad members into pieces .
