Game of the World Tree - Chapter 137

137. Chapter 137: The Smuggling Caravan’s Base

The screenshots uploaded by Hefan soon caused a sensation on the official forum of “Elf Kingdom”.

It must be said that Rivendell is indeed a city of miracles. The elven-style tower-style buildings are still magnificent even after thousands of years.

As the former manufacturing and mining center of the Elven Kingdom, the various mine car tracks remaining in the ruins and the various forging furnaces that can be faintly distinguished have added a bit of steampunk flavor to this place.

Coupled with the vicissitudes brought about by thousands of years of ruins and the gloomy and cold loneliness unique to the Dark Canyon, this place has a bit more mystery.

The criss-crossing mine tunnels, the large-scale buildings, the deep and mysterious colors…

In short… This is simply the typical lost ruins in the fantasy game that players dream of!

The number of replies to the post has risen sharply.

“Fuck! This ruin is really amazing! It satisfies all my fantasies about the lost world…”

“Is that deep hole at the end the entrance to the underground world?”

“I feel this new map is great! I’ve been adventuring in the forest all the time. Although the scenery is great, I always feel that there is a lack of excitement of exploring the mystery!”

“I’m curious about what monsters are in the new map! There are fewer and fewer monsters that can be defeated in the Elf Forest now, and the remaining ones can’t be defeated. It’s not safe to go to some distant places… I wonder if there will be cave spiders, kobolds, etc. in Rivendell…”

“Let’s not talk about monsters first. Even Florence, which was emptied by the elves once, has so many good things. As the manufacturing capital, and I heard that Rivendell, which was destroyed without evacuation, must have buried more treasures, right?”

“You are tempting me…”

The players were boiling.

For a time, Hefan’s screenshot post about Rivendell was pushed to the most popular place on the forum.

While in the game, the world chat channel was also flooded with messages from the players…

“Boss Hefan! Start a live broadcast!”

“Yeah! Yeah! We also want to see Rivendell in advance!”

“Boss Hefan! I heard that you were captured by a human caravan. Take a screenshot. We want to see what a human caravan looks like.”

“Boss Hefan! Hulu said that there is a beautiful elf girl by your side. Is it true?”

“Damn, there’s an NPC girl. Damn winner in life…”

“I’m jealous. What about you guys?”

“That’s great! This is the rhythm of a hero saving a beauty. I also want to trigger a hidden plot with an NPC girl!”

“Are you trying to trigger a hidden plot? You are greedy for the NPC’s favorability, you despicable!”

“I think he is more likely to be greedy for the NPC’s body.”

“Pfft… You are all talented!” Hefan

:…

He took a deep breath and blocked the world channel where the chat content was getting more and more crooked.

The elf girl on the side looked at the human mercenaries around her nervously, and then glanced at Hefan who was distracted (looking at the game system interface) and curled her lips slightly.

Wood is wood!

It’s time, and he’s still in a daze!

Ever since she heard Hefan say that there was a silver-level strongman in the human caravan, she felt bad.

However, this instigator, Daimu, seemed to be fearless. I don’t know if he was really not afraid or was too careless…

As for the help of silver-level strength mentioned by Hefan, the girl was skeptical . In short…

She now regretted her reckless choice.

What if…

What if this wood is unreliable and they run into a silver-level strongman again, wouldn’t they all be in trouble?

Imagining the consequences, the girl shuddered.

…

After blocking the world chat channel, Hefan also turned his attention to the caravan.

The scale of this human caravan was not large, with only fifty or sixty people, of which mercenaries accounted for about half.

In order to prevent alerting the enemy, Hefan did not try to sense their strength.

But after observing the movements and footsteps of these mercenaries, he roughly judged that their strength should not be very high.

I am afraid that most of them have not even reached the middle level of Black Iron!

This surprised Hefan a little.

He felt that the strength of human mercenaries seemed a little low.

In fact, this was because Hefan was not very clear about the general strength of the intelligent creatures in the Segos world…

In the human world, there are not many people who can reach the Black Iron level. Among a hundred people, there may be only two or three professionals who have broken through the 10th level. Most people are only apprentice-level strength.

The cost of hiring professionals is not cheap.

Generally speaking, a human below the Black Iron level has no worries about employment, and any mercenary organization or caravan will welcome him.

The human caravans in the Segos world generally aim to maximize profits.

When hiring mercenaries for escort, the caravan will try to hire professionals with low costs.

Generally speaking, they will hire a large number of low-level professional mercenaries, plus one or two strong men who can be shown off.

The reason why Hefan thinks that the mercenaries are weak is that he has always dealt with Warcraft and Orcs.

In fact… the Warcraft and Orcs they encircled and suppressed are also ferocious and powerful creatures or intelligent races even in the eyes of ordinary humans.

Of course, although the average strength of humans is low, the human base is large, so overall, professionals are the most.

And among the lucky ones who become professionals, there are many humans who have gone further. The Sauron family is proud of the continent because of such strong people.

If we look at the overall strength of humans, they are actually the strongest in the entire Segos continent.

The ruler of the Eternal Era is humans!

If it weren’t for the internal struggles of humans, which led to the division into several countries, their combined mid- and high-end strength would probably make any intelligent race feel afraid!

As for the famous Sauron caravan walking on the continent, as long as they can equip themselves with the defense force to resist monsters along the way and show the banner of the Sauron family, generally speaking, no one dares to attack them.

Therefore, although the value of the goods escorted by this caravan is not low, their overall strength is only two silver professionals.

Of course, silver professionals are already very strong…

Hefan’s eyes flashed slightly and looked at the front of the caravan.

There, there was a human mage who was dressed gorgeously and looked about fifty or sixty years old.

And next to him, there was a tall blond swordsman.

Even if they were far apart, Hefan could still sense the powerful aura on them…

Silver!

They are the two silver-strength strongmen in the human caravan!

After a while, the caravan stopped in front of a 100-meter-high tower in the ruins.

The mercenaries drove the trucks into a secret ruin next to the tower, and then took Hefan and the elf girl into the tower.

After entering the tower, the two realized that this was one of the bases of the smuggling caravan!

Unlike the dilapidated outside, the interior of the tower was well organized, with all kinds of living facilities, but the air inside was very turbid, which made the two frown subconsciously.

After the caravan entered, several people who seemed to be on duty came to welcome the caravan.

Hefan saw one of them came to the leading wizard and bowed, saying flatteringly:

“Lord Berus, you are finally here! They have urged for the goods several times, and the amount this time is too large… I dare not trade without you.”

The wizard named Berus said with a smile:

“The kingdom has been checking tightly recently, so I took a detour and made a small profit from the orcs, and also got an unexpected gain.”

After that, he pointed at Hefan and the elf girl:

“Look, two more elves! Lock them up too, and sell them together with the last batch of goods.”

“Two more?”

The man’s eyes lit up.

He looked at the two and nodded:

“Very good, I’ll have someone lock them up now!”

After that, he waved his hand, and two more people came forward to take Hefan and the others down.

Hefan and the two did not resist, but were taken into the depths of the tower by humans as if they had really lost their strength. There… there was a dark passage leading directly to the underground.

Under the escort of humans, they walked down the underground passage for ten minutes and finally came to a deep and damp cell.

As soon as they arrived here, Hefan saw seven or eight young elves locked up!
