The river water in late autumn is freezing cold.

Tilis stretched out her hand and put it into the flowing river water. The coldness from it made her shiver, but she quickly picked up a handful of water and sprinkled it on her face. The cold feeling made her

The originally dizzy mind suddenly became much clearer. The girl shook her head, shook off the water droplets on her face, then combed her soft flaxen curly hair that was wet with water, and then raised her head and looked at the other person.

The valley on the side. Under the shroud of fog, the valley seemed to be nothing, and the silhouette of a city could be vaguely seen. Just seeing that heavy shadow made Tilis feel extremely uneasy. She stood

He stood up, closed his eyes and meditated quietly for a moment, then put the thoughts in his mind aside.

The Lost City of Issos.

Tilis has heard rumors about this city more than once, as well as the secrets and treasures hidden in it. Over the years, many adventurers have wanted to go deep into this city to find the precious wealth hidden in it.

.But few people can come out alive. Now Issos is no longer the magnificent city before, but a devil's cave full of monsters. There are all kinds of terrible monsters lurking there, and even rumors

There are also tribes of orcs and mountain giants. As for the central area of ​​Issos, there are also rumors that a terrible devil lives there. Anyone who steps into the core city will be pulled into the dark demon world.

There is no way to come back.

But for adventurers, these are not important. People die for wealth and birds die for food. This principle applies equally no matter in which world. In fact, the "Fairy and Treasure Box" adventure group that Tilis is a member of is one of them.

They risked their lives and entered the Lost City three times in a row. But unfortunately, they did not gain much. In fact, everything that could be looted around the entire Lost City had long been looted by their adventurer predecessors.

. And the deeper you go, the more monsters there are and the more dangerous they are. Many adventurer teams who took the risk have fallen on the road to the inner city. The "Fairy and Treasure Chest" team is no exception. In fact, in

On the way to explore the Lost City for the last time, they also paid the price of three companions in order to enter the inner city, but even so, they were not able to break through the obstacles of those monsters, and could only return home in despair.

This series of adventures has made Tiliss exhausted. She has had enough of such days. In Tiliss' view, they should leave here and continue their adventures elsewhere. Help those villages eliminate the goblins that harass them, or should

Some noble lords asked them to clean up the surrounding monsters, which they could easily complete and get high rewards. Instead of doing useless work again and again like now. But unfortunately, their captain

It seems that they have already competed with the Lost City. According to what he said, it seems that they must get some valuable treasures from Isos before leaving. Otherwise, they will continue to spend time here.

"Why……………"

Thinking of this, Tilis sighed and couldn't help but reach out and touch the backpack beside her. They didn't have much money left, and they didn't know how long they could hold on. And recently, because of the conflict between the Golden Empire and Skaar,

During the war in the Federation, many adventurers have left here. After all, this area is also on the edge of the war zone. No one knows when the Flash Gold Empire will attack the Forgotten Valley. Adventurers like them do not want to confront the regular army, let alone

They lost their lives here for no reason. According to Tiliss's idea, they should leave here like everyone else and go adventure elsewhere. After all, the continent of Klein is so big. Why must they hang themselves in this crooked place?

What about the neck tree?

"Hey, what are you thinking about."

At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out from behind and patted the girl in front of her, which startled Tiliss. She quickly turned her head and saw a man wearing adventurer leather armor with emerald green hair.

The half-elf girl was looking at herself with a playful smile, and looking at the half-elf in front of her, Tilis let out a long breath.

"Really, don't scare me, Aina."

"Haha, sorry, sorry."

Seeing Tilis' little face turned pale with fright, the half-elf girl clasped her hands together and apologized. Like Tilis, she was also a member of the "Fairy and Treasure Chest" team, and as the only two members of the entire adventure team

As a female member, the relationship between the two is naturally very good.

"By the way, what are you doing here?"

"Nothing...just to kill some time, what about you?"

"I?"

Hearing Tilis' question, Aina blinked, and then she grabbed Tilis' hand as if she remembered something.

"By the way, the leader asked me to call you to assemble. We are about to set off!"

"Departure? Are you going to the Lost City again?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.

Hearing these words, Tiliss was stunned for a moment, and then frowned. Aina, who was pulling her, didn't notice Tiliss' uneasy face at all, but ran forward without turning her head.

He opened his mouth and answered.

"Yes, but this time we are not going to die. The leader has taken over a big business. This time we will serve as a guide and take someone into Issos. This is a huge reward!"

"Guide?"

Hearing this, Tilis couldn't help but be stunned. What is going on? Generally speaking, those who dare to take risks in Issos are mercenaries, and mercenaries are all competitors. If you have one more person, you will get less.

In the case of a piece of loot, if it were not for the dangers inside, those mercenaries would have wished to work alone. Not to mention that there are some bad teams that specialize in ambushing and attacking the adventurers who evacuated from Issos, "Elves and Goblins"

The "Treasure Chest" adventure group has encountered similar incidents several times before. But fortunately, their adventure group is still relatively strong here, so they did not suffer much loss.

But to say that someone paid to hire them to go to Issos... what on earth is going on?

Before Tilis could figure out the reason, Aina had already dragged her into the adventure group's station, and then pushed open the door.

"Captain, I brought Tiliss back!"

Hearing the call of the half-elf ranger girl, everyone present turned their heads and looked at the two of them. And Tilys soon saw the client standing in the center of the room.

It was a young man who seemed to be less than twenty years old. He was wearing a black dress with gold trim and a gorgeous long sword hanging from his waist. He was dressed like the nobles Tiris had seen before.

There is no difference. He is wrapped in a black cloak, and he looks gentle and elegant. His handsome face always has a faint, elegant smile, and a pair of rimless glasses makes him look more like a scholar.

Temperament. All in all, this is a person who is easy to fall in love with just by looking at him. Even Tilis couldn't help but blush when she noticed that the other person was looking at her. She hurriedly lowered her head and complained secretly.

Why did Aina drag herself in in such a conspicuous way?

But soon, Tiliss heard her captain's voice ringing again, which made Tiliss couldn't help but raise her head and look at the man standing not far in front, wearing a slightly worn magic armor. That

It is Steve Duncan, the leader of the "Goblins and Treasure Chests" adventure group. It is rumored that his father was once a magic knight, and Steve also inherited his father's talent and martial arts, although he sometimes has a bad temper.

He seems a little impatient, but as an indispensable figure in the team, he is still deeply trusted by everyone. And now, it is obvious that he is the one representing the entire adventure team to negotiate with the other party.

"Now that all our team members are here, Mr. Zhan, I can swear in the name of the Nine Saints that everyone here has entered the Lost City more than once, and they all have the ability to escape from there unscathed.

I can assure you that we will definitely be able to take you into the Lost City safely, so please rest assured."

Is it him? Is he the one Aina said hired everyone to enter the Lost City?

Although she had expected it, after hearing what the group leader said, Tilis raised her head curiously and secretly looked at the young man standing opposite the group leader. And she saw that the other person was listening to the group leader's words.

After speaking, he glanced at the dozen or so people standing in the room, then pondered for a moment, then nodded with a smile and spoke.

"Very good, Captain Steve. It can be seen that you are all experienced adventurers. I think you will not let me down, then..." As he said this, the young man took the

Taking out a money bag and placing it on the table, Tilis heard a "crash" sound, and then she saw golden coins overflowing from the pocket. "Here are five hundred gold coins, including the deposit and what you need before departure.

The supplies are all here. After the mission is completed and we return safely, you can get the remaining five thousand gold coins."

Five thousand gold coins!

Hearing this, everyone, including Steve, almost took a breath. They already knew that this employer was very generous, but they did not expect that the other party would actually make such a generous offer. Five thousand gold coins! With the current adventure group

If divided by the number of people, each person will earn at least 500 gold coins. This is already a wealth that many adventurers will not be able to obtain in their lifetime!

Looking at the money bag in front of him, Steve swallowed involuntarily, then stretched out his hand and grabbed the money bag in front of him. Then he turned to the young man in front of him and saluted him solemnly.
Chapter completed!
