Ryan's Sword

Chapter 239 Eight Misunderstandings
Traveling through the dead and withered wilderness, a group of people soon came to the town gate of the town.

A series of hideous wooden refusal horses spread out an extended fortification at the entrance of the town. The cross-bundled pointed logs are like spears piercing the sky obliquely. bloodstained.

The dry dark red is mixed with a horrible green, and even from a long distance, you can smell the lingering smell of putrid corpses.

As Ian and his party approached the town, the city guards guarding the town gate with spears in their hands had already seen them.These young warriors in simple light armor seemed to think of something bad, and they looked like they were facing an enemy from a distance.

Fortunately, an officer who hastily jumped off the low wall calmed their nervousness in time, which prevented them from reacting aggressively.

"What do you mean? We are not welcome?" The Iron Rank adventurer's eyesight is enough to see clearly the commotion ahead, and the mad tiger who was already in a bad mood frowned deeply and couldn't help but open his mouth He became rough, "Grandma Dixiong, why should the mission issued by the military be so vigilant against us adventurers?"

The bald man's words spoke out the hearts of the people. It was nothing more than a surprise attack by the enemy on the road. How could he be treated like this when he was in his own territory?

Immediately, not only several captains of the adventure team frowned, but also various voices of dissatisfaction filled the team.

Seeing the already sensitive nerves of the adventurers being stimulated again, the seasoned middle-aged captain Coleman suddenly realized that something was wrong. However, at this time, he was not the strongest one in the joint team composed of multiple adventure teams. However, he wanted to suppress everyone's restless emotions, but he was powerless.

He opened his mouth and hesitated to speak, Coleman frowned and glanced around, which happened to intersect with the eyes of the blue-eyed bee on the other side.This powerful iron rank hunter has a calm personality. If he speaks out to comfort him, there is a possibility of convincing him.

However, Coleman couldn't read the meaning of wanting to stand up from the eyes of the blue-eyed bee, which made him a little anxious——

At any time, it is not a good thing to have a conflict with the city guards. Although powerful adventurers are qualified to challenge, the criminal record left after the incident is enough to make you burnt out, and even make it difficult to move an inch in the entire Ryan territory.

"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient."

At this time, a young voice suddenly sounded, and these few words in a calm tone seemed to ring a bell in everyone's ears, like a rest that fell instantly, stopping all the voices of dissatisfaction and hostility.

Amidst the shocked gazes gathered by the adventurers, Ian glanced at the Soul Blast combat skill that had entered the cooling state below his vision, and was extremely satisfied with its X effect in friendly units. ——

A moment ago, he was just slightly launching this combat skill while speaking. Even if the sweeping soul ripples did not contain any malice, it was enough to make the affected living body feel inexplicable panic.

You must know that the will of those strong will manifest the upper coercion in the state of inactive casting, which is nothing more than that.

"We don't know what happened in the town yet, but what is certain is that those city guards shouldn't be targeting us," Ian said calmly under the gaze of everyone, "and from the perspective of the mission, the opponent They are our employers, if we turn against them at this time, we will be the ones who will suffer."

Ian's analysis didn't pretend to be profound, but just a few simple words awakened the adventurers who were outbursts of negative emotions.Indeed, they came here for the bounty, no matter from which point of view, it is not a wise choice to break up with the employer.

Of course, these words can only be heard by Ian, who has just shocked the adventurers. After all, the right to speak is still only in the hands of the strong.

"Captain Ian is right, the mission has been accepted, we don't need to make trouble with our own purse." At this time, the blue-eyed bee's extremely magnetic and calm voice sounded at the right time: "Why don't you go and see what happened first, It’s not too late for everyone to make a decision.”

"Yes, let's go and have a look first."

"The two captains are right, let's go!"

……

More and more voices echoed, but this time, there was less dissatisfaction and restlessness before.

After solving the unstable factors, the team of adventurers quickly approached the town gate.

"Stop comers!"

At this time, the city guard officer who jumped off the low wall first shouted while making a stop gesture.Behind him, whether it was the warrior holding the spear or the archer holding the bow tightly behind the arrow stack, all of them suppressed tension and hatred in their eyes, and the adventurers who watched from a distance also looked bad.

The air between the two sides suddenly became dignified, and this tense posture not only did not seem to be welcoming support, but was more like a confrontation before the war.

"Sorry," just when even Ian couldn't help frowning slightly, the officers of the City Guards on the opposite side came out more and more, walked out of the horse, and said loudly: "Some changes happened in this town before, all Adventurers who come to perform bounty missions must pass our identity verification, otherwise they will not be allowed to enter!"

"Please forgive me."

There was always a trace of helplessness in the officer's voice, and the adventurers quieted down after looking at each other for a while.

It seems that there is a reason.

"My lord," seeing that no one was willing to argue, Ian took a step forward and also shouted from the air: "We are willing to accept the test, but you should tell us what we need to do, right?"

"You don't need to do anything, just stay where you are." Seeing that the adventurers were willing to cooperate, the officer of the City Guards also heaved a sigh of relief, and then explained: "The priest of the Sect of Light in the town has already arrived On the way, you only need to accept the baptism of the Holy Light (D) once."

"Baptism of Holy Light?"

Ian knows that this is an ordinary gain buff skill, which can slightly increase the six-dimensional attributes of the target unit in a short period of time. The only advantage is that it covers a large area. No teammate's own incident.

After all, this is only one of the skills that low-level priests must learn. However, in addition to the buff effect on life, holy light magic also has an outstanding ability to kill undead monsters——

The only thing that priests who lack offensive methods can solo in the early stage are undead monsters, which is based on this principle of damage mechanism.

Therefore, when Ian heard that the other party chose to use this skill for identity verification, he already roughly guessed what happened.

Presumably, the town encountered adventurers disguised by resurrected undead monsters before, and they were mixed into the city, causing a lot of damage.It's no wonder that those young soldiers showed such obvious hatred. At their age, losing a comrade-in-arms is probably the heaviest blow in their life.
