Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

At this moment, everyone was completely terrified...

How could they possibly have the courage to resist Cao Le?

"It seems you guys are a bit smarter..." Cao Le smiled, then continued, "But what happened to your companions who disappeared without a trace?"

"have no idea..."

"We have just been ambushed by demons..."

Several people were so frightened that their legs went weak. The one who had been talking about Jiang Shaoxu earlier was a high-level mage.

But even high-level mages are nothing compared to Cao Le. Under such circumstances, who would dare to invite trouble?

Once the others stopped talking, Cao Le turned and left.

Jiang Shaoxu hesitated as she watched Cao Le return, saying, "They were just joking around, like that..."

"After the talk, it's time for action. Of course, I can't tolerate this kind of thing. And next time you go out, don't bother dressing up."

The vice-captain of this mercenary group has already said that her men are capable fighters, but in a lawless place like this, they are utterly audacious.

They were warned, but they refused to listen, so Cao Le certainly wouldn't be polite.

"Hmph! I'm doing this all for you!" Jiang Shaoxu retorted.

Um....

That makes sense, after all, it's really you who gets to enjoy it.

...

The Tianshan Mountains are divided into four layers from the highest point down: glacial deposits, alpine zero-temperature layer, meadow layer, and desert layer.

The Tianshan Grand Canyon winds its way upwards, so once they leave the desert layer, they reach the meadow layer, getting closer to the glacial deposits and the location of the Sky Scar.

Following the warm trail of the torrent, the members of the Mailong Mercenary Group successfully emerged from the desert layer and began to enter the meadow layer with moss and cold grass.

The meadow layer means that the land above them is covered with a thick alpine meadow. Looking out, there is mostly green mountains and fields, which is ethereal, holy, beautiful and magnificent!

The Great Rift Valley in the meadow layer initially only has some vegetation that is obviously growing in the low-lying areas underfoot. But as you continue to walk deeper, you will find that even the cliffs above and on both sides are covered with plants. Some of the large-leaved climbing grasses are so dense that they are like a wall. If you don't get close, you might think you have entered a dead end.

Upon arriving in this place, the number of poisonous substances also increased. As they entered this more complex territory, everyone's nerves became tense once again.

It was here that Gavin, the division chief, learned about the 10th Division.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Gavin, the division chief, came to the Ninth Division and asked Cao Le.

Do you need it?

"Heh...kid, you're quite arrogant," the squad leader said with a somewhat unfriendly expression.

"So, you want to try it out?"

The group's leader, Gavin, hadn't expected Cao Le to be so audacious. He knew that even if he wasn't Cao Le's match, the entire Myron Mercenary Group was still there.

But seeing Cao Lefeng's nonchalant demeanor, he was momentarily at a loss for what to do.

"Kid, I advise you to be more rational. It's just a woman. It's not a wise choice to offend our entire mercenary group for a plaything," threatened Gavin, the group's leader.

"So what if we offended them?"

"Let that woman come and keep me company for a few days. We'll let today's matter slide. Otherwise..."

"puff!"

"Uh...."

Before Gavin could finish speaking, the person who had betrayed him was suddenly impaled by a black vine...

"you..."

Gavin turned his head and discovered that the person who had reported to him was dead?!

He truly hadn't expected Cao Le to be so arrogant.

"Ninth Division, what are you doing?!"

Kuma was also somewhat angry. After all, these were members of the Melon Mercenary Group. As the vice-captain, she couldn't remain indifferent as she watched them kill her own people.

Regardless of whether she was in the wrong or not, Cao Le's behavior was already a provocation.

"Bang bang bang!!!"

The moment she finished speaking, black vines shot into the sky. Except for her and Gavin, two super-level mages, who managed to dodge these suddenly appearing vines, almost everyone else was bound.

"An elite mercenary group?"

"hehe...."

As Cao Le spoke, his figure suddenly became illusory. Immediately afterward, Gavin, the head of the regiment, was kicked to the ground by Cao Le's attack that covered the space and was then bound by dark vines.

Upon seeing this, Kuma attempted to unleash a super-level magic.

However, her plant-based abilities simply cannot be released!

Under the oppressive influence of the dark vines covering the ground, her attacks offered almost no resistance.

The next moment, a cold, sinister Horcrux transformed into a sword, resting against her neck...

"That's it?"

Cao Le smiled; he looked down on these so-called elites in the slightest.

In short, they were only fit to be cannon fodder.

The group's chief, Gavin, was bound in mid-air, with a dark pool of water below him. There were even four or five black demon soldiers on his body!

He was scared...

At that moment, he already felt a pang of regret...

Just because he couldn't resist the urge, he came looking for trouble...

But I never expected it to end like this?

"Are you going to let him die, or let your Myron Mercenary Group die with him?" Cao Le asked, looking at the bewildered Kuma.

Kuma's strongest plant-type was completely suppressed.

Then I thought of his fire-based powers again...

She knew that the person in front of her completely overwhelmed her.

"He's dead..."

Cao Le gave her a choice based on her abilities, so she naturally chose to remain an observer.

Kumar is here on a mission, and why should she go to her death with Gavin?

If Cao Le didn't have the ability, then she wouldn't get involved either, and would choose to remain an observer.

506. The Hunter King

As soon as Kuma finished speaking, the mercenaries of the Melon Mercenary Group were immediately freed, but the group's chief, Gavin, was not so lucky. He was dragged directly into the Black Demon Pool by the dark vines!

The dark creatures that emerged during his struggle terrified many mercenaries, making their legs go weak!

They were well-traveled and worldly people, but this was still the first time they had ever encountered such a scene...

It was absolutely terrifying, almost enough to send chills down your spine...

Cao Le dealt with Gavin, and the dark power instantly dissipated, along with all the dark vines that had vanished before his eyes.

If you hadn't witnessed it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that this had just happened.

After the matter was resolved, everyone continued on their journey.

The death of Gavin, the group's leader, was a devastating blow to the hearts of the veteran members of the Myron Mercenary Group. Forget about taking any frivolous actions; even a fleeting thought of Gavin's death would be filled with lingering images that would haunt them for a long time. They even saw Jiang Shaoxu and Lingling as the most perfect gentlemen, no longer glancing around with their eyes as they had before!

There are too many dead bodies along the rift valley route, most of them with unknown causes of death. It's really hard to say how many teams actually made it out of the meadow layer alive.

Although Gavin's death instilled fear in them, the insights they gained along the way, guided by Lingling, left them speechless with a sense of awe.

Lingling is a little genius. Before coming here, she spent a lot of money to buy a lot of information, so she has a great understanding of everything here.

Mercenaries receive mission bounties, death benefits, and high rewards for completing missions. Apart from these three types of money paid by their employers, anything they obtain during missions belongs to them personally. The vice-captain, Kuma, will ensure that no member has any objections regarding how the mercenaries will distribute the spoils.

The financial allocation received by the more than sixty members of the Mailong Mercenary Group has already exceeded the execution fee they initially received. Aren't they risking their lives for money? If they can successfully complete the mission, they can really live off it for half their lives.

Of course, Cao Le and the others also gained quite a lot, and in fact, they didn't even consume much magic energy.

This is the main reason why they still follow the Mairon Mercenary Group even now.

Despite my strong desire to visit Tianshan, there's absolutely no reason to miss out on its rare and precious treasures.

Moreover, it's important to understand that this is only the meadow layer. The real treasures, however, reside in the high mountain and glacier layers—pure lands untouched by any disturbance or harvesting. That's where true treasures abound.

Upon reaching the high mountain level, although they encountered the Tianshan Demon Tiger, Cao Le and others were present. The Tianshan Demon Tiger's attack failed once and it never reappeared.

Of course, it was also because they left quickly and did not linger in its territory that they were spared relentless targeting.

The Tianshan Demon Tiger is a creature of very high lineage, a predator in the high mountains. If the Mailong Mercenary Group goes all out, they can deal with this powerful demon, but it also means they must be prepared to suffer casualties.

Cao Le casually dismissed them, which made them extremely grateful and made Kuma feel even more certain that he was right not to seek out trouble.

With no obstacles in sight, the group continued on their way...

"Have you noticed that we haven't seen many forks in the road these past two days? We shouldn't have gotten lost, right?" Zhao Manyan said.

"The altitude is gradually increasing, and we can already see the snow line in the distance. There's no mistake," Lingling said with certainty.

"That means this is the only path to the glacial deposits," Zhao Manyan said.

"Hmm, that's about right. Look ahead." Lingling pointed.

Zhao Manyan looked up at the high ground ahead and suddenly noticed a golden flag standing on a steep rocky mountain, with some English writing on it.
