Chapter 108 Cooperation

Dry highlands.

Eight people, three in front and five in the back, marched in the Gobi Desert under the scorching sun. Needless to say, this group of people was the five Dark Crows and Lan Wu and his three companions.

"Why did you agree to their request?" Gross tilted his head slightly and glanced at the five people behind him with the corner of his eye. Big drops of sweat dripped down his fair face. Walking in the Gobi Desert under the scorching sun was really a painful thing.

"Besides agreeing to them, do you have any other way to get out?" Lan Wu wiped the sweat off his face and didn't care.

Gross was very upset.

Being caught on the spot by Barbara, attracting Suna and the other two Dark Crow members, the end was already determined. Even if he joined forces with Lan Wu and created some trouble, he would never be able to escape from the secret base of the Dark Crow. When Ende and the other three powerful men led the rest of the Dark Crow members back to the underground temple, the ending would be needless to say.

When he really stood in front of Ende and the other powerful men, he realized how lucky he was to have escaped by chance. That kind of oppressive feeling is like a huge stone weighing heavily on the heart, making it impossible to muster the courage to resist. Thinking about it now, it was the only way at that time.

Use the ruins of Nifl to exchange for the freedom of the three people.

This is the agreement reached between Lan Wu and the leader of the Dark Crow, Ende. He didn't care about an ancient relic. Long before he set out, he wanted to give this relic to Lan Wu. It's a pity that the news leaked out for some reason. Jie Haiyin had to calm the anger of other families and agreed to the requests of various families to jointly excavate the ruins.

For this reason, he simply invited Lan Wu to a banquet in a public place such as a tavern, intending to leak the news completely. Attract the attention of some people with ulterior motives, and finally fight with various families to a loss, so as to gain the greatest benefits for Lan Wu and achieve the ultimate goal of making friends with Lan Wu.

The planned external forces did not appear, but a Dark Crow appeared instead.

Thinking of this, Gross couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a complacent smile. It doesn't matter if there is an accident in the plan. However, he was very proud of being able to make the Dark Crow suffer a small loss.

"The map is here now."

Gross recalled that he pointed to his head and flicked off the ashes on his hand. That Ende had an ugly face and looked like he wanted to kill someone. He was in a good mood and didn't even feel the scorching sun above his head.

The Dark Crow is an underground organization that has been a headache for Lu Gaoyin for decades. It is unknown how much loss it has caused to Lu Gaoyin over the past few decades. From His Majesty Jehain to the civilians, everyone hates this underground organization. Being able to give the Dark Crow a heavy blow at a great disadvantage is the most proud thing he has ever remembered.

"Are you willing to give the ruins to the Dark Crow?" Gros's thoughts were clear and he became much more cheerful.

"It's just a relic." Lan Wu shrugged and didn't take it to heart at all.

Gross suffered another heavy blow. It's just a relic... Only this damned soul can say such words so easily. Just look at the fact that the Dark Crow immediately dispatched five powerful men after learning about the ruins of Nifl, and you will know what an ancient relic represents.

Now he has no idea what this God-Blessed One is planning in his mind. Alliance with Lugain? It is completely impossible to tell. Alliance with the Dark Crow? It is also impossible to tell. It seems that he doesn't care about anything and can abandon anything without any care.

Gross's mood, which had just improved, became bad again. The more he stayed with Lan Wu, the more he felt that this God-Blessed One was like a fog, which he couldn't see through or guess. This made him hard to accept.

While Gross was secretly depressed, Lan Wu was communicating with Rodament through the contract. This Horadrim mage was knowledgeable and had extraordinary insights. Since he had signed a compulsory soul contract with Rodament by chance, the focus of his communication had also shifted to this mage.

"It takes a lot of price for the demon to come to this world?" Lan Wu exclaimed in amazement.

If you think about it carefully, if it is so easy for the demon's body to descend into this world, I am afraid that this world has already become a demon's world. This also explains why only a few small bosses have mutated and become extremely powerful so far.

"My memory has become fragmented." Rodament shook his head helplessly: "I only remember that before I descended into this world, someone was making the same preparations. Who exactly was it... Sorry, I have lost this part of my memory. But I know it must be a strong person. It is very likely to be the demon Duriel."

Lan Wu's eyebrows jumped suddenly. Duriel, the King of Pain, is the final BOSS of the second act in Diablo. This big bug is quite disgusting. I was frozen and killed by this big bug many times. Thinking about it carefully, in order to pass this level, I specially collected a lot of equipment with cold resistance and unfreezing properties.

"Andariel didn't come out, but Duriel came." Lan Wu was full of emotion. If I follow the game process, I didn't even pass the first act and ran to the second act. No wonder the difficulty increased several times. A big bug whose strength has increased several times... This is not easy to deal with.

Lan Wu's expression suddenly became strange when he thought of this. This mission to Lu Gaoyin was not to form an alliance with Lu Gaoyin, but to avoid bringing more trouble to the Rogue Camp. So, Lu Gaoyin is just cleaning up his own mess?

"Wait, why did Duriel come to this world in person?" Lan Wu looked solemn and put away his distracting thoughts.

Rodament frowned and thought hard. The consequence of the broken memory made him lose the relevant memory. After integrating for a while, he replied blankly: "It seems that he is looking for someone."

Lan Wu's heart skipped a beat. If so, Duriel himself came to find himself, the benefactor. While he was pondering, Rhodament suddenly relaxed his brows and continued to add: "I remembered. The devil is going to hold a ceremony."

"The Stone of Fusion World?" Lan Wu asked quickly.

"Uh...I'm not sure." Rhodament frowned again and murmured: "But I remember they need some Horadrim belongings. I seem to be looking for something this time. But What is it?"

"No." Lan Wu's eyes jumped in shock.

The demon also needs Horadrim paraphernalia. Doesn't that mean that Duriel may appear in the ruins of Nifl? In this case, this excavation of the ruins will have to directly face the King of Pain, Duriel?

This unexpected news is really shocking. Lan Wu's eyes rolled, and he immediately had a new plan. If Duriel really appears, Barbara and the other five strong men will be on top. Presumably five strong men with at least level 50 should not have a problem dealing with this big bug like Duriel.

Just as he was thinking, Gross suddenly interrupted his thoughts: "Water."

Lan Wu came to his senses, rolled his eyes, took out a water bag and stuffed it into Gross's hand. He really had nothing to say to this Lu Gaoyin man. As a professional, I don't even prepare the most basic things when I go out for adventure. He cursed secretly and took out another water bag and handed it to Claudia.

"Thank you, sir." Claudia shyly took the water bag, immediately took a small sip, and then handed the water bag over.

"Hold on for a few more days." Lan Wu took the water bag and said a few more words. This time, just in case, he specially prepared enough sacred well water for ten people to drink for a week. It's a pity that this blessed well water turns into ordinary water after leaving the underground temple, losing its healing effect.

At this time, the barbarian named Hank caught up with the three of them. He wiped away his sweat and slapped Gross on the shoulder impatiently: "Hey, how far away is the ruins?"

Gross slumped and his face turned pale. This slap was so powerful that it almost broke the shoulder bone. He endured the pain, glanced sideways at the barbarian, and raised his chin proudly: "If I die, the map will be gone."

Hank laughed angrily, put his right hand on the space bag at his waist, and grabbed a two-handed sword. There was a flash of white light, and the two-handed sword was placed on Gross's neck. He smiled ferociously: "I won't kill you. I will slit your throat. You will quietly enjoy the despair of life draining from your body. But you will not die. I will give you a healing potion. Until you understand that you are now situation."

Gross' expression kept changing. He realized that he had underestimated Murkrow's abilities. This kind of torture completely captures the most instinctive weakness of human beings. Everyone is afraid of death. The despair when life is rapidly passing from the body is enough to break down anyone's psychological defenses. But before the life is completely cleared, taking treatment medicine in time can make up for the lost life. Over and over again, even an iron man can't stand such torture.

"Ahem." Lan Wu coughed twice, and stood up with a smile to help Gross: "I think you should know the agreement we reached with you. If you want to torture him, I will kill him. You should know , If he dies, you just lose one relic. But if I die, your plan will be gone."

Hank was furious. This threat hits Murkrow right at his soft spot. Relics, the Ravens need. The Dark Crows also need this guy. The ruins can be given up, but this guy's role cannot be replaced. If he really wanted to kill this Lu Gaoyin man, he really couldn't kill him.

"Remember this." Hank took down his sword angrily, turned around and walked back.

"Thank you." Gross calmed down his rapidly beating heart and thanked him sincerely.

"It's a trivial matter. This barbarian has long wanted to kill me. I'm just collecting some interest on the way." Lan Wu smiled and looked at the distant horizon.

The location of the ruins that Rodament told us is almost here.

As the saying goes, Wangshan is like running to death. The ruins of Nifl are just ahead. But the team also walked for two full days. Gross had a good memory and found the location of the ruins very accurately.

At this time, Eun Tak suddenly walked to the front. He glanced around and quickly settled on a small mound in the sand. He retracted his gaze, looked at Gross, and asked coldly: "Is it right here?"

Gross was forced by his cold gaze, and the idea that he had planned to continue to embarrass the Dark Crow suddenly disappeared without a trace: "Yes... yes. The remains of Nifl are in the Temple of Death."
