"No!!!"
The orcs and demons that were charging at the Rose Mercenary Squad screamed in agony. Two orcs and two trolls were turned into black charcoal, falling to the ground and disintegrating into ashes.
The last demon with a protruding mouth and monkey-like cheeks managed to stop himself at the last moment. His body glowed with light, forcing him to retreat a few meters, barely avoiding the lightning bolt. He screamed in horror, plunged into a nearby cave, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The griffin looked in the direction of the cave, and spat out a lightning ball in annoyance. It blew up the entrance of the cave, and the collapsed boulders sealed the entrance completely.
Meg also looked in the direction of the cave, and a smile appeared on his face, but he quickly hid it.
"So powerful!"
The Rose Mercenary Squad members, who were still on guard, heaved a sigh of relief. They looked at the griffin with admiration.
If a mount is so powerful, how powerful is Alex, who hasn't shown up yet? They didn't dare to imagine.
The remaining forest troll took a couple of steps back in horror. His trembling body was covered in mud and dust. Black vines wrapped around Evan, and a poisonous spike was pressed against his chest. He looked up at the purple-striped griffin, and said in a trembling voice, "You … you … don't come any closer. If you come any closer, I'll kill him!"
The griffin slowly descended until it was about 10 meters above the ground. Its purple-gold eyes looked at the forest troll and Evan, and it seemed to hesitate.
The forest troll's face lit up. He was right. With a hostage, Alex wouldn't attack, and gave him a chance to live.
Evan felt the sharp, poisonous spike in his chest, and his face turned as white as a sheet. The tables had turned too quickly, and he only just came back to his senses. The arrogant and evil mercenary squad was now reduced to a panicked forest troll. Afraid that the griffin didn't understand the situation, he quickly cried out, "Lord Alex, save me! I'm a magic caster from Chaos City, and I'm also an elf. Didn't you say you would protect all the elves outside The Wind Forest? Please save me! Don't act rashly! "
Seeing that Evan was tactful, the forest troll didn't gag him.
Today's operation had gone too smoothly. It was inevitable that they were a little complacent. They had never thought that Alex would really appear. Moreover, they hadn't even seen him. Just a Gryphon had almost wiped them out.
"Ptui, you only know that you're a magic caster from Chaos City now? Are you an elf? Could it be that the bootlicker who was licking the demon's feet and saying that he wanted to kill all of us is already dead? "Dennis spat on the ground with a mocking smile.
"That's right. In order to survive, this guy is really like a mangy dog," Scott said, curling his lips.
The members of the Rose Mercenary Group looked at Evan with disgust. What he had done before was not just running away, but betraying them. In order to save his own life, he had tried to trade the lives of all the members.
Now, looking at him being held by the forest troll with a poisonous spike in his chest, no one pitied him at all. Instead, they felt that he had brought this upon himself.
Hearing their words, Evan's face alternated between green and red. He looked around the crowd, and his eyes landed on Eva, who was still lying on the ground with a silly smile. His eyes lit up, and he called out hopefully, "Eva! Save me! Eva, help me beg Alex's people! Ask him to save me! Eva, I'll marry you when we go back this time. I know how good you are. I really love you … "
Eva got up from the ground, and her eyes seemed to have lost all focus. She staggered in another direction, and murmured, "Men … Hehe … Liars … All liars …"
"Eva!" Evan glared at Eva's back with a ferocious expression.
"Eva! I'll go take a look. "Chiwil was also slightly startled. He put away his boomerang and chased after Eva.
The forest troll's face showed some fear again. The guy in its hands seemed to be the most worthless hostage. The vines around Evan suddenly tightened, and the poisonous spike was almost stuck to his skin.
The sudden burst of pain made Evan's face turn red. He cried out in pain, "Ah! Save … Save me! "
"You'd rather die than live like a dog." Mag snapped his fingers as he looked at Evan, who was twisting and struggling.
The purple-striped griffin's eyes suddenly became fierce, and it swooped down on the forest troll like a bolt of lightning.
"Let's die together!" A crazed look appeared on the forest troll's face, and its poisonous thorns pierced into Evan's heart. Countless poisonous thorns protruded from its massive body that was nearly five meters tall, and it instantly expanded like a balloon that was about to explode.
Its sharp claws pierced through his throat and pulled out his head.
Blood spurted out, and the inflated body became like a deflated balloon. It withered in an instant, and then fell to the ground with a loud crash.
The seven members of the Wicked Mercenary Group, except for one who entered the cave, were all annihilated, including an 8th-tier Ghostfire Demon.
The members of the Rose Mercenary Group were shocked speechless.
"Awooooo —"
The purple-striped gryphon circled around the basin, and let out an excited cry towards the crowd, as if it was asking for praise. Then, it abruptly raised its head, and flew upwards, almost sticking to the stone wall. Like a purple lightning bolt, it disappeared into the small horizon of the basin.
"So fast! It would be great if I could sit for a while. "Amy looked up and said with some longing.
Mag patted the little one's head with a smile. Such a wish was easy to fulfill.
"This is also my dream," Dennis raised his head and said sympathetically.
Meg raised an eyebrow. This wish could not be fulfilled.
The purple-striped griffin disappeared into the sky. Alex did not appear from the beginning to the end. However, an opponent like this did not require his help.
The basin regained its peace, leaving behind a ground full of corpses and ashes. The small reptiles were still trembling in the cave. The members of the Rose Mercenary Group smiled, as if they had survived a disaster.
Evan died under the forest troll's poisonous spike. His eyes were wide open.
However, they did not feel sad about his death. Instead, they felt a sense of satisfaction, as if they had vented their anger.
Thinking about how they had been teammates with this guy for three months, they still felt a lingering fear.
Chiwil brought Eva back, but she did not seem to be in a good state. She seemed to have gone crazy, constantly tearing her hair and muttering, "Man … liar … liar … man …"
