1017 Cooperation


    Ma Xiaowan had the same thought. She looked at Fang Heng and the other man, then asked while frowning, “Are there only the two of you?”


    “Yes,” Fang Heng nodded.


    He wasn’t sure if there were yers in this group, so he tried to speak as little as possible.


    Hearing this, the higher-ups of the mercenary groups were even more puzzled.


    Most necromancy mages did not have strongbat power and only focused on evil magic research. So, what were these two here for?


    “Hahaha, wee, wee,” Tanli Mercenary’s deputymander Ku Nuo broke the silence and smiled, “We’re all here because of amission. Our goal is to get rid of the dragon mosquitoes in Cesar Frest. If we work together, we’ll definitely be able to get rid of this big problem.”


    As he spoke, Ku Nuo gave Ma Xiaowan a look.


    The other party seemed of unknown origin, so it was better to just agree first.


    They couldply with them first, then investigate further.


    At worst, those two were scammers and they would get extorted a sum of money.


    There was no need to get into a conflict with necromancy mages.


    “The two of you havee from afar, so please take a rest first. We’ll try after dawn tomorrow…” Ma Xiaowan nodded.


    “No need.” Fang Heng raised his head and said, “We’ve already checked the situation on the other side of the river. We’re in a hurry, so we want to finish themission as soon as possible.”


    The higher-ups of the mercenary group were displeased upon hearing such words.


    Finish themission as soon as possible? Who did they think they were?


    God knows if they were capable, but they could indeed brag.


    Ku Nuo frowned and asked, “Now? To be honest, the number of dragon mosquitoes is huge, and we are also having a headache. Do you have any way to eliminate them all?”


    “Yes,” Fang Heng nodded, “We’ve checked and discovered that the river is a dividing line for the dragon mosquitoes. We can attack the dragon mosquitoes from the other side of the rider.”


    “He…” The deputymander of Chook Mercenary, Kian, snorted in disdain.


    He had half-expected them to say something original, but to think they were just using the riverbank as a cover to attack from the other side.


    Was it that simple?


    “We’ve also noticed this, but it’s very difficult to deal with the dragon mosquitoes with this matter. After all, the dragon mosquitoes will only attack when their territory is invaded,” Ma Xiaowan exined patiently, “Most of the time, they will hide in the dense forest.”


    “What if I can lure them out?”


    “Lure them out?” Ma Xiaowan was startled.


    “We can think of a way to lure the dragon mosquitoes out. With your abilities, you should be able to get rid of them as soon as possible, right?”


    Everyone was silent for a moment.


    They could feel the provocation in Fang Heng’s words.


    Speaking of which, if there really was a way to lure the dragon mosquitoes out, they would have the geographical advantage. Wouldn’t they just have to crush the group of dragon mosquitoes then?


    In fact, during this period, the mercenary groups had also considered simr methods, but they had all failed.


    The reason was simple. They simply couldn’t lure the mosquitoes out of the forest.


    “Hey, young man, don’t talk big,” Kian said with a frown, “What method are you going to use to lure them out? How long can you lure them out? What will their numbers be?”


    “Many and very long.” Fang Heng waszy to exin, so he simply said, “Time is tight. If you don’t believe me, you cane with me and take a look yourselves.”


    “Now?”


    The crowd once again began to discuss in low voices.


    The situation in the area around the camp had been thoroughly investigated, but moving at night was still a big taboo.


    Fang Heng’s words made them feel that he might have ulterior motives.


    “Yes, I’m in a hurry. I want to clear the dragon mosquitoes before dawn.”


    Ma Xiaowan was a little conflicted. She felt that Fang Heng didn’t seem to be lying, but…


    “I’ll go,” Deputymander Ku Nuo interrupted the discussion and said, “I’ll bring a team and follow you to confirm the situation. If you can do what you promised, the reinforcements willeter.”


    “Alright, we’ll set off immediately,” Fang Heng said expressionlessly.


    …


    Wei Tao’s team managed to enter the city before the gates of Hani City closed.


    Although they encountered all kinds of trouble along the way, which dyed their journey, the team ultimatelypleted the task smoothly.


    After a long day, the yers were exhausted.


    Wei Tao split the yers into groups. One group was to sell resources in the city and search for a ce to stay for the night, while the other group was to gather information in the city.


    After knowing the location of the military camp in the city, Wei Tao did not dy. He immediately brought Tang Mingyue and Mikhael to look for the city’s Quartermaster, Ell, to report the situation.


    However, what Wei Tao did not expect was that upon seeing them, Ell immediately brought them into the City Lord’s mansion in the center of the city without a word.


    In the main hall of the City Lord’s mansion, the City Lord was pacing back and forth anxiously.


    When he saw Tang Mingyueing into the City Lord’s mansion, the anxiety on his face immediately turned into relief. He heaved a sigh of relief and quickly walked up to her, “Princess Mingyue, it’s great that you’ve returned safely.”


    Ha?


    Wei Tao and Mikhael were both dumbfounded as they heard this and shifted their gazes to Tang Mingyue.


    Princess?


    “Me?” Tang Mingyue blinked.


    Had she struck gold?


    …


    In the wild forest, half an hourter, Ku Nuo saw a scene that made him extremely shocked.


    What kind of monster was that?


    On the other side of the river, the densely packed group of dragon mosquitoes obscured his vision!


    They surrounded a monster that was nearly three meters tall in the middle and attacked it wildly.


    The monster was even more terrifying. It was still swinging a half-meter-thick tree trunk to counterattack while being surrounded.


    Ku Nuo looked at Fang Heng with a gaze that was flooded with terror, expecting him to give a reasonable exnation.


    “Flesh puppets,” Fang Heng still had his mask on, maintaining a cold and aloof attitude as he exined concisely, “It’s a summoning branch of necromancy. The flesh puppet has a strong restraining ability against dragon mosquitoes and can resist their attacks for a long time.”


    “So, so that’s how it is…”


    Wasn’t this too terrifying?!


    Ku Nuo had followed the mercenary group to travel around the world since he was eight years old, and he thought that he had seen a lot.


    He didn’t expect to witness such an eye-opening scene today.


    To think necromancy mages were so terrifying that they could summon such powerful undead creatures.


    “Ku Nuo,” Fang Heng said, “The dragon mosquitoes have been lured out. It’s up to you now.”


    “Alright,” Ku Nuo’s expression was serious, and he immediately sent someone back to report the situation. He then ordered his subordinates to start setting up an attack.


    The mercenary groups had not spent more than a month here in vain. They were very good at dealing with dragon mosquitoes.


    The team was divided into two groups. One group used bows and arrows tounch long-range attacks on the dragon mosquitoes on the opposite side of the river from a distance.


    The humans of the mid-tier world were quite powerful, and their uracy and power were on a whole new level. Upon closer inspection, one would find that they were all using extremely special magic bows that even had the function of automatic aiming and adjustment.


    Fang Heng was happy to watch from the side and rx.


    As for the other group, they were moving some kind of firewood from the wheelbarrow they had brought along and carefullyying the firewood along the river bank.
