Although the style of speaking was the same as before, Pan Da's demeanor this time had obviously changed. Roddy could see that he was calm and confident from the bottom of his heart. In the interface belonging to the system, he also clearly saw that there was a prefix in front of his original "Priest" title — "God's Chosen".
This prefix was silver, and at the same time, his level and strength had greatly increased. Previously, he was a Level-4 Priest, but now he had directly jumped to Level-25. This kind of leap in growth was really hard to understand …
But the biggest difference was not the strength, but the attitude of the other party. When they were talking in the ruins, Pan Da's demeanor and tone were still cautious and tentative, but now there was no such mood at all.
He no longer hid his purpose, nor did he disguise his identity, because now Pan Da had an identity: a believer of Sterian.
"Sixteen people in total, it is indeed safer in the Forest of Silent Words," Kardashian quoted a price very unscrupulously, "Leave within five days, and six gold coins. How about that?"
This was not an exorbitant price, but a price only offered after understanding the market. Normally, a five-day escort mission for seven people would only cost two gold coins, but the depths of the Forest of Silent Words were very dangerous in winter, and with a senior-rank mage like Julia holding the fort, six gold coins was not considered expensive.
Pan Da did not bargain and nodded in agreement, and at the same time, paid two gold coins as a deposit on the spot. He did not think that he would have to hire two mercenary teams to ensure his own safety on this mission. But what made him feel even more wonderful was that in these ten days, he had completely completed the choice at the crossroads of his life.
Now, he had no doubts about the identity of Julia and the others. After paying the deposit and signing a new contract, Pan Da became the current supreme leader of these mercenaries.
In this way, five Dragons, a Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Karen, and a Wood Elf had truly become "mercenaries". Their employer, Pan Da, obviously did not realize what kind of people they were. He just calmly ordered, "Everyone, go down the mountain first. There has been a landslide here, so it may not be safe."
Dewitt and Kardashian became colleagues, and they began to assign tasks to each other. Stika and Roddy were arranged to scout ahead, while the others formed a formation. Under the moonlight, they went down the snow-covered road. There were not many accidents along the way.
It was already early in the morning, and they were extremely tired. After arriving at the foot of the mountain, they began to set up camp with the simple tents and other supplies they had brought. At this time, Roddy and the others were embarrassed because they did not bring any tents. In the eyes of the Dragons, they wanted to live in a warm and comfortable house of their own. It was enough to cast a spell, and they could even build a fireplace.
But now, everyone was limited by their identities as mercenaries, so they could only say that "the item was lost in the ruins". After that, they gathered as much firewood as they could in the snow and started a bonfire. They found some stones to heat them up and placed them in a shallow pit that could shelter them from the wind. They used the heat to sleep.
So he looked worriedly at Natha, who said, "It's okay, I really don't feel cold." So he looked at Natha worriedly, but Natha said, "It's okay, I really don't feel cold."
"With me here, she won't freeze."
Kardashian reached out and pulled Natha to the other side of the lit campfire. She said, "The two of us will sleep together. Anyway, I'm a Mage, so it's not too much to cast a spell to keep warm. You guys make do on your own. "
"Hey, it's been a long time since I slept in the snow in the wild."
Rubens directly lay down in the pit he dug. He did not even take off his hat, he just pulled it down and did not say a word. But in less than ten seconds, he suddenly sat up, pushed his hat up, and said, "Damn it! I can't even sleep? "
Needless to say, the other Dragons heard the footsteps that were approaching from afar. Kardashian's expression did not change. She just said to Natha, "Don't run around later, just follow me."
Roddy glanced at the "map", which clearly showed the number of enemies. He glanced at it and did not take it seriously, because it did not matter how many came, because the existence that could pose a threat to their team in the Silent Forest had not been born yet. But Roddy felt that something was wrong, but the situation was urgent, and he did not have time to think about what the problem was. He hurriedly asked in a low voice, "Everyone, continue with the plan?"
This was to continue to observe the effects and details of Pan Da's divine spell. Iscar and the others nodded quickly. Rubens seemed to be addicted to acting and agreed the most quickly, "Of course we continue! By the way … how far are we going to fight? "
They could not just pick up a rusty knife and slash the whole place, anyone would be able to see the problem. Roddy pointed to Dewitt who was not far away and said, "Just act a little better than him, don't show any flaws."
Hearing this, Rubens smiled and turned to look at Stika, "Let's see who's better at acting?"
"You're always adding drama, I can't be bothered to compete with you."
The two began to bicker out of habit again, but Iscar looked at the machete he had brought. "This thing won't break when we use it, right …"
"If it breaks, then it breaks. I can just make do with it and cut people."
Kardashian glanced at the dark forest in the distance again, "It's two hundred meters, let's give them a warning, or else we'll suffer heavy losses and it won't be good to act."
"Okay, then I —"
Just as Roddy was about to get up, he was stopped by Essien, "Prime Minister, let me do this."
At this moment, Roddy understood that his relationship with this group of Dragons was finally one step closer than ordinary friends.
Iscar and Stika were pretending to be sleeping at the side. The first sentry at night was Dewitt's people, so Essien acted as if he was about to pee, went over to greet the mercenaries on sentry, and then strolled further away and began to untie his belt in front of a tree.
In Essien's vision, this group of strange Wood Elves were already more than fifty meters away from him, and he was about forty meters away from the center of the camp. Nearly a hundred meters should be enough for this group of people to prepare for battle.
And just as Essien was about to pretend that he had discovered the enemy, a large area of suddenly condensed elemental fluctuations made him curse.
"Damn it!"
Because at least ten people in front of him were aiming at him with magic.
Essien really didn't know what this group of Wood Elves was thinking. The main force was still inside, and there was no need for so many people to cast a spell to deal with a lone soldier outside.
But at this time, he didn't have time to complain about the enemy, so he simply turned around and ran — In a sudden burst of red light, Essien didn't even put on his belt, and ran with all his might while shouting, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! "
