Chapter 530 Wild Bear Mercenaries

When the villa was broken into, Li Chengxi scratched his head while looking at the screen.

He really didn't listen to advice!

Li Chengxi didn't really care whether he could take back all the priesthoods of the Demon King God. It was too easy for him to become a god. He didn't really feel real. It was impossible for him to become a god in a short time.

However, Viola felt that as a believer, she had an obligation to find all the priesthoods for Li Chengxi. On the other hand, the more priesthoods, the stronger the ability, and the Avarus Demon Kingdom, which was in need of reconstruction, would be safer.

So the Demon King's Ring would be recovered sooner or later, but Li Chengxi didn't really care whether it was sooner or later.

He told Aoerdai that he would think about the Demon King's Ring after Viola restored the country. He planned to use the power of the country to find it, and didn't plan to let Aoerdai go in person.

And Aoerdai understood that he would go to find the Demon King's Ring after the restoration of the country.

Li Chengxi was talking about the situation, and Aoerdai understood it as time...

To put it another way, even if you go in person, at least tell me in advance.

Since Viola hadn't had much of a problem since she took over the Silver City, Li Chengxi had been paying attention to Yang Yiyi recently. If something happened to Aoerdai when she went to get the Demon King's Ring while Li Chengxi wasn't paying attention, she would have died somewhere.

But then again, Li Chengxi knew that he couldn't persuade her. He knew too well Aoerdai's curiosity and motivation. She was essentially the same as Yang Yiyi, and was completely stubborn about some things.

I can only say that Li Chengxi happened to be free today, okay.

On the screen, a group of fully armed guys rushed into the villa. Li Chengxi's bird's-eye view was clearer. These people were definitely not the guards of the Academic City. The styles of their equipment were too mixed, and they didn't look like the standard equipment of the regular army.

I randomly clicked on someone to see that the character panel said "Wild Bear Mercenary Group".

As soon as he saw this, Aoerdai fired a big fireball at the mercenaries who rushed in, blowing them upside down, and then the three of them jumped out of the window and ran away.

Although Li Chengxi complained a lot, compared with Yang Yiyi, Li Chengxi's ability to interfere with Viola was super strong, and a mere mercenary group was not a problem at all.

Besides, it was not so easy for Aoerdai to be caught.

——Although it still felt a bit shit.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Climbing out of the window, footsteps sounded behind her, dense as raindrops, and she didn't know how many people were chasing her.

Aoerdai didn't have time to turn around and cast a few spells. She knew that one or two mercenaries couldn't do anything to her, but a whole mercenary group, that was different.

The role positioning of the mercenary group and the adventurer overlapped, but they were actually two completely different groups of people.

The main job of adventurers is to visit ruins and deal with monsters, while mercenaries are completely indifferent and dare to do anything for money, so many dirty jobs will go to mercenaries, and adventurers will never take them.

Simply put, adventurers focus on PVE, while mercenaries focus on PVP.

Therefore, compared to the adventurers who specialized in dealing with monsters, the mercenaries carried many weapons specifically for killing people.

The three had just rushed out of the villa and had not yet run to the street when they heard a light buzzing sound from behind.

Made of cold steel, the hard and brittle crossbow arrows attacked from behind like locusts. This special arrowhead would produce a large number of fragments after hitting, and the person would be bloody on the spot after being hit by an arrow.

The lethality was not high, but it would cause severe pain, and it was specifically designed to deal with people.

The constant magic defense on Ordai was immediately activated, and the arrows hit the translucent shield with a crackling sound, breaking open a handful of dense metal fragments.

Armor alone could not resist these fine fragments, and would penetrate through the gaps, and would penetrate deeper and deeper due to the movement of the human body.

Zora immediately grabbed the holy emblem and cast the pious shield, which was a professional match for the divine art of defending against long-range weapons.

And Nimia, who had no spellcasting ability, ran in front screaming while holding her head to protect her vitals.

She thought this time would be similar to the last time, and that she would only have to deal with traps and monsters. However, she was immediately chased by mercenaries not long after coming out of the portal. This was too exciting for a novice adventurer.

Compared with Yang Yiyi, Viola did not restrict civilians from purchasing powerful long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows. Although these mercenaries were not as well-organized as the regular army, their weapons and equipment were no worse than those of the regular army.

As Alde ran, she tore open a few spell scrolls and threw them behind her without even looking at them.

Some scrolls would turn into a large piece of green grease when they fell to the ground, some would explode into spider-web-like sticky silk threads when they fell to the ground, and some would become bombs when they fell to the ground.

The wizard threw scrolls regardless of the cost, and the firepower output was very considerable, but who knows how many people there were on the other side, and Alde did not want to continue to entangle with them.

At this time, the three ran out of the yard of the villa and successfully entered the street.

Since it was early in the morning, there were no pedestrians on the street. However, unlike other cities that were dark at night, many scholars could be seen working late into the night. It was common for them to work all night.

But Alde had just thrown several big fireballs, and the loud noise from the explosions could wake people up even if they were asleep. Why didn't anyone come out to see?

This had something to do with the strange residential structure of the academic city.

Since Academic City possesses the most knowledge and the most cutting-edge technology in the entire plane, countless alchemists also come here because of its reputation. There is a proverb in the alchemy industry.

As long as you don't get blown up in the novice stage, you'll usually be very successful.

It can be imagined how common explosions are in academic cities. Big explosions that overturn entire houses also happen from time to time. Residents have long been accustomed to it, and no one will take a curious look outside.

The members of the Wild Bear Mercenary Group were not the only ones who rushed into the villa. As soon as the three of them stood on the street, they saw a group of mercenaries armed with weapons emerging from the alleys on both sides. They were completely surrounded.

Mages are different from monks. Monks are good at both internal and external skills. In addition to being able to use spells, they are also quite good at melee combat.

As for the masters, no matter how strong they are, they may be knocked down by a kitchen knife if they are not careful. This situation of being surrounded by mercenaries with enemies on all sides is very difficult to deal with.

"Come here! This way!"

Aldee and Zola were already ready for a big fight. When they looked up, they found that Nemea had moved the manhole cover at some point, greeted them and jumped in first.

Sewage drainage projects are urgently needed in large cities, and academic cities are no exception. Nemea originally made a living on the streets, so of course he knew a lot about sewers.

But if possible, Zora and Aldai really don’t want to run to the sewers...

Nothing better, just jump.
