One month passed…
Adventurers began to enter the Ankagen Mountians to look for the ruins of the legendary Dark City . Xiao Yu made millions of gold coins through the sales of cards, food, drink and accommodation during this time-frame .
Xiao Yu organized his own group as he saw the adventurers leave to the mountains . He chose Grom, Thrall, Cairne, Tyrande and Antonidas as core of the group . He left Uther to help Captain Hui to defend the Lion city . Uther’s blessings were effective to all human soldiers so he could double their combat effectiveness if a war occurred in his absence .
Xiao Yu took 100 grunts, 50 riflemen, 50 elf archers, 10 footmen, 10 kodo beasts and 10 shamans with him . He believed that he could cope with any problem unless a very big risk arose . Xiao Yu didn’t let Lin Muxue and Mu Han leave with their academy as he wasn’t sure that they could keep them safe . He was clear about the strength of the academy so he believed that they were safest by his side .
Suesha wanted to go with them too but Xiao Yu persuaded her that it wasn’t a play . He explained that Ankagen Mountains were untouched and all kinds of danger lurked inside . He couldn’t protect so many people if something dangerous happened .
…
…
Xiao Yu didn’t encounter beasts or monsters along the way . The wave of adventurers had killed almost all of them . There were more than ten thousand adventurers who roamed inside so they cleaned up them . The adventurers were like the men who saw the naked woman when they met those demonic beasts and monsters . They killed them before beasts knew what was happening .
Xiao Yu was silent as this solved one of the problems he faced . The most problematic part of the development for the Lion territory was the invasion of the beasts and monsters . Previously, Xiao Yu was sending grunts to clean the area and practice . However, the range was too big so there were lots of beasts that came to scourge the corps and hurt the population . Xiao Yu believed that beasts wouldn’t be a threat to Lion territory for a long while after this event .
The map identified the location of the Dark City . However, trees that were taller than ten meters appeared as they walked to the depth of the Ankagen mountains . They covered the sun light too . It was like they were walking in the labyrinth without direction . The adventurers began to spread out to explore the areas .
Xiao Yu wasn’t afraid of getting lost as he had elves with him . It would be very strange for an elf to get lost in the forest .
Xiao Yu leisurely traveled . He believed that they would reach the Dark City in two days .
…
…
Generally, the bodies of the magicians were weak . It was difficult for them to hike for a long time . Xiao Yu had two chairs made out of bamboos which were carried by four grunts . Mu Han and Lin Muxue would use them to travel . The grunts were strong and Lin Muxue and Mu Han’s bodies were light . It was easy for the grunts to carry them .
Antonidas protested and wanted the same treatment too but Xiao Yu ignored him . Antonidas was a mage too but he wasn’t weak . Moreover, he wasn’t from this world so he could handle long journeys very easily because of his build . However, Antonidas was very lazy . He would never stand if he had chance to sit .
Lin Muxue and Mu Han were too kind-hearted . They would see Antonidas to walk and they would give their seats to him because of his age . Antonidas would have an expression of a grandpa from neighborhood when they did so . He would praise Lin Muxue and Mu Han because they honored the elders . Xiao Yu looked at the treacherous look on Antonidas’s face . He wanted to kick him down .
…
…
The level of beasts increased as they went into the depth of the mountains . The adventurers began to have casualties . Xiao Yu would often make sure that the wounded or injured adventurers they met on the way were bandaged . He couldn’t bear to see those adventurers in that state . On face it seemed that they had beautiful jobs but in reality they were facing death . Moreover, there was no mercy or mourning when they died . They were like ash drifting in between heaven and earth .
Xiao Yu would order grunts to burry the corpses of dead adventurers that they met along the way . Some adventurers who saw this informed others about the situation . He was winning the hearts of normal adventurers .
Most of those adventurers had no relatives or family with them . As a result, they were touched to see someone at least bury their corpses . Xiao Yu wasn’t doing this to earn their respect .
They met beasts and monsters too . However, Xiao Yu didn’t even have to act as his army was enough to solve the problem .
…
…
This day Xiao Yu and the group was moving forward when they heard noises ahead . Countless adventurers ran past by them .
Xiao Yu frowned as he pulled an adventurer: “What’s happening?”
“Wolves …wolves … … Wind wolves! Hundreds of them! Run! Run for your lives! ” The adventurer rapidly escaped .
“Wolves?” Xiao Yu frowned . All kinds of wolves were very tough, violent and bloodthirsty . Moreover, they were troublesome because they lived in packs . Even high level beasts avoided them because they would be torn to pieces when wolves swarmed over .
“Get ready to fight!” Xiao Yu commanded . He knew that they couldn’t escape with so many people . The only way out was to battle . The grunts roared when they heard Xiao Yu’s orders . They were born to fight .
Moreover, there were no large-scale wars and they were crazy to fight . Now, a chance had arisen . Thrall began to insert totems around the place to buff the grunts . Kodo beasts began to hit their drums to enhance the morale of grunts . Shamans began to enhance the strength of the grunts with their ability .
Cairne issued a Battle Roar which enhance their strength too .
A level 10 grunt could deal with a second-rank human warrior . Now, he had 100s of them with him .
The strength of Grom and Cairne was more terrifying . In this state, they could kill third-rank human warriors .
