Chapter 390
The family background of mercenaries was generally not good . Otherwise, they wouldn't have chosen such a high-risk occupation . They didn't have a powerful family to do the backing, thus, they had no chance to gain a powerful magical beast in their youth .
The magical beasts could be said to be the second fighting force of these mercenaries, so they had summoned their magical beasts before the fight began .
In a blink of an eye, thousands of troops and thousands of magical beasts rushed to the Phoenix’s nest .
It wasn’t fear and tension that were plastered on each mercenary’s face . Rather, their excitement was stirring up their emotions .
For them, although a high level magical beast was a very difficult target, they outnumbered it so much this time . With their large force, wouldn’t it be an easy matter to fight against a rank eight magical beast?
Several mercenary heads were already impatient to put their own teams to the forefront, strike at the Phoenix, and get a good piece of share .
"Leader! That is the Phoenix’s nest?" a mercenary looked at the huge cave in front of them in excitement . The height of the cave was actually even higher than the Mercenary Trade Union’s building . Such height looked incomparably imposing . The fire elements which were spreading to the surroundings told them that there was a Phoenix inside .
"It should be . I didn't expect that I will get to see the Phoenix . You lot must give me the spirit from the very start of the fight, so we could completely deal with the Phoenix . And everyone of you must be shrewd, so if you can get more good stuff then get more . Do you hear me?" The mercenary head had been telling his men to clean up the battlefield . Clearly, the Phoenix was really nothing in the eyes of this group of people .
"Leader, why is it that the members of the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps are standing behind?” Some sharp-eyed mercenary stretched his head to look at the back of the huge troops where Du Lang and the others were located .
The mercenary head looked towards Du Lang’s direction and raised his eyebrow . He secretly felt delighted as he disapprovingly said, "You fool, stop caring about others . They actually better just squat behind and save ourselves from having the good stuff snatched off . " Since the start, the performance that the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps had shown had truly made the group of heads uneasy . But now Du Lang unexpectedly stood behind the group, and for the mercenary heads, this was a good news!
Du Lang, along with the Cave Wolves Mercenary Corps, was standing behind the crowd, and a cautious look was plastered on his face as he looked at the cave before them . He could feel very powerful fire elements coming from inside the cave . They were more powerful than any of those fire magical beasts’ he had ever seen .
"It seems that Huo Xiao’s speculation isn’t unreasonable,” Du Lang said to himself .
"Leader, what did you just say? What did Huo Xiao guess? Why did you command me to go back a few moments ago? You’re not going to ask me to protect Huo Xiao right now? I can’t seem to find him anymore . He’s not lost, is he?” Vicious Wolf, who had served as a nanny the whole journey, suddenly heard Du Lang’s murmurs with a tone full of suspicions . He looked for Shen Yanxiao’s figure in the whole team but failed to find her . He had gotten used to being her nanny that he was unaccustomed not being one right now .
Du Lang glanced at Vicious Wolf and said, "You don’t need to worry about him now . You just have to remain obedient and stay here . ” Shen Yanxiao didn’t give any explanation for her departure, and Du Lang knew that she had something to do, so he would not divulge her whereabouts to others .
Vicious Wolf was very depressed . He was originally not happy when he had been assigned to be someone’s nanny . The leader just one-sidedly shoved Huo Xiao to him, but now that he started to take care of him seriously, the leader incredibly told him to forget about it . . .
And the leader’s behavior at this time was too strange; instead of taking his brothers to the forefront, he actually let them stay at the the back instead . This wasn’t in line with their Cave Wolf Mercenary Corps normal vigorous and resolute style, ah!
