Seeing someone blocking his way, Zhan En didn't mind. He didn't even glance at the other person and directly turned to leave in another direction. However, the opponent obviously didn't plan to let it go so easily. The mercenaries snickered and soon another strong warrior came over to block Zhan En's path. Immediately after, four or five mercenaries walked over with cold smiles, surrounding Zhan En and his two companions.

  As they watched this scene, Zhan En stretched out his hand to adjust his glasses, but didn't say another word. Elise also just slightly furrowed her brow. Only Becks slightly uneasily moved closer to the two of them, no matter what, dwarves weren't very good at fighting, and towards these humans Becks didn't have a very good impression either, now seeing their sly smiles, she was even more afraid. However, thinking that her master was by her side, Becks quickly calmed down, staring at these mercenaries, and quietly asked.

  "What are you doing blocking our way?"

  "Hehehe………"

  At the inquiry of Bix, the mercenary leader burst out laughing, his eyes wide with excitement, staring at Bix, his mouth agape, revealing a full set of yellow teeth.

  "It's nothing, miss. We just think you two ladies are quite pretty and wanted to take a closer look, right everyone?"

  "Is it is it."

  As soon as the mercenary spoke, the other few people also shouted out, with a strange smile, they sized up Elise in front of them without any restraint. It's no wonder they were so eager, it was rare to see women here, let alone beauties like Elise, although more than half of her face was covered by a hood and couldn't be seen clearly, but just that slender figure was enough to make people have evil thoughts.

  "This young lady is really beautiful, by the way, what brings you to this dark region? If there's anything you need, you can find our Mercenary Guild, as long as you give us a commission, Miss, even if it's dragon-slaying or demon-killing, it's completely no problem..."

  As he spoke, one of the mercenaries even reached out a hand and grabbed at Eriol's arm.

  "How about it? Miss, why don't you come over here and have a drink with us....................Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!"

  Just as the mercenary's arm was about to reach in front of Eris, suddenly, with his movement, a wave-like magic pattern appeared in front of the girl, and then a faint red glow flashed by. Immediately afterwards, the right hand of that frivolous mercenary burst into flames, with bright red fire jumping rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it had engulfed half of his arm. Under this scorching pain, the mercenary was also rolling on the ground in agony, struggling desperately, and only managed to extinguish the flames on his arm with great difficulty.

  "Little brother!!"

  At the sight of this, several others were shocked and rushed to the mercenary's side, staring at him. After seeing the scene in front of them clearly, everyone involuntarily took a deep breath - only to see that the mercenary's right hand had been completely burned by flames from his wrist to his elbow, leaving only half a lonely white bone. The upper part was also shriveled and charred due to high temperature, turning into a withered ball, and it could be seen that the entire arm had been thoroughly disabled and could no longer be cured.

  "You bunch of bastards!!"

  The big Han who was at the forefront roared loudly and stood up, drawing out the long sword from his waist and pointing it at Zhan En.

  "We were just joking around, and you guys actually took it so seriously. Do you really think the Lone Mercenary Corps is easy to bully?"

  Upon hearing the loud roar of Da Han, the people around him couldn't help but turn their heads to look over. In fact, they had all seen the Lone Horn Mercenary Group harassing those three people earlier, but no one had intended to lend a hand. After all, Zhan and his companions were dressed too ostentatiously, just like wearing Armani in a slum - whoever saw them would probably not give them a good face. Originally, many people had been secretly laughing at the Lone Horn Mercenary Group for going to find trouble with them, wanting to see how this young noble would be humiliated. Unexpectedly, the other party was so ruthless and merciless, not even saying a word before directly disabling the vice-captain of the Lone Horn Mercenary Group - it was as if they didn't take them seriously at all!

  Facing the roar of the great Han, Elise's expression remained unchanged, coldly staring at him. Don't look at Elise's usual shy and timid appearance in front of Zhan Yan, that was because she knew Zhan Yan was the master of the underground city, not to be easily provoked. However, this group of humans in Elise's eyes were simply not worth paying attention to, to put it bluntly, they were on the same level as the dwarves. If Zhan Yan hadn't previously ordered that no one should be killed without his permission, Elise would have directly roasted them into charcoal. To know that when facing the patrol team of the Holy Church, Elise was able to kill without blinking an eye, and her speed was astonishingly fast. Even those elite knights were not in her eyes, how could she possibly look up to these mercenaries?

  "Big Brother!"

  At this moment, another mercenary dressed as a thief changed his face and quickly jumped up to grab the sleeve of the big man.

  "Stop messing around, he's a lawyer!!"

  "Lawyer?!"

  Upon hearing this, the big Han was stunned for a moment. He carefully examined Elise and suddenly his face changed. In fact, just by looking at Elise's attire, one could guess the truth. She wasn't wearing an adventurer's leather armor, nor did she wear a weapon like Zhanen, yet she dared to come to this dark region, so she must be a mage. Don't be fooled by her outer cloak that looks like it belongs to a noble lady, inside she's definitely wearing a mage robe.

  It's just that if you pay a little attention, you can discover Elise's differences. However, this group of mercenaries was attracted by Elise's beauty and didn't notice this at all, until they suffered a bloody disaster, only then did they start using their brains.

  "Cut..."

  That big man wasn't a fool either, and after being reminded by his subordinates, he had already sounded the retreat. On the continent of Klain, whether on land or underground, mages were always the most troublesome group to deal with. Moreover, the young girl in front of him, although young in age, was definitely not an ordinary mage apprentice based on the magic shield she had cast earlier. Such a person couldn't be trifled with; most mages had eccentric temperaments, and if things went awry, it wouldn't just be himself who would be unlucky - probably the entire mercenary group would be implicated as well.

  Most of the powers in this dark region are declining, and this lone mercenary group is no exception. He didn't want to provoke a wizard and bring disaster upon himself. All he could do was grit his teeth and swallow this bitter pill, giving Elise a fierce glare before making a gesture and lifting up the mercenary who had fainted, preparing to leave.

  There was nothing exciting to see, and everyone withdrew their gaze. The law master was not someone who could be easily provoked, and in fact, most people were unclear about the law master's powers. There were many mysterious rumors surrounding him, and Elise's behavior earlier seemed to prove that these rumors were not unfounded. As a result, those who had been hoping to see some excitement suddenly shrank back, fearing that they would be caught by Elise and possibly cursed in secret, and they might not even know how they died!

  "Wait!!"

  Just then, suddenly, a young knight stood up from the crowd, he strode to Zhan's front and blocked their way again.

  "Don't you think you've gone too far? Although these mercenaries were a bit rude, they didn't deserve to be treated like this! This is the territory of the Holy Church, not a place where you nobles can do as you please!"

  "You don't look like a mercenary."

  Looking at the young man in front of him, Zhan En's eyes shifted and swept towards his chest, where the temple emblem was engraved.

  "So, esteemed knight, why do you take the side of a group of lowly, despicable, and boorish mercenaries? You should know that they are nothing but commoners, while I am a noble with a coat of arms and a banner. They dare to block my path, so they should be prepared to face the corresponding punishment. The noble bloodline cannot be sullied or disdained; in fact, they should be grateful that this is within the territory of the Holy Church, otherwise, I would have used their blood and lives as compensation for insulting my family and myself. Moreover..."

  At this point, Zhan En stretched out his hand and lifted his glasses slightly.

  "When these vile wretches were trying to insult my fiancée just now, I didn't see you come forward to champion justice, sir knight."

  "I..."

  At this point, the young knight's face suddenly turned red. In fact, he was also attracted by Eris like others, so he didn't come back to his senses in time. Until that unlucky mercenary was injured by Eris' magic shield, he realized something was wrong, but unfortunately it was too late and couldn't be helped.

  "As a holy knight who keeps his word, I hope you can view everything we've been through from an impartial and just standpoint."

  At this point, Zhan En hummed softly and glanced at the other mercenaries who had already left them far behind.

  "I hope such things won't happen again. After all, I didn't travel thousands of miles to this desolate land just to respond to the call of the Nine Saints and eliminate the evil and darkness hidden here. You should understand, Holy Knight, that I am far stronger than these lowly people who only know how to go crazy with their wine jugs."

  "How much stronger?"

  Upon hearing this, the young knight furrowed his brow and gazed at Zhan in confusion. Noticing his gaze, Zhan nodded slightly.

  "That's right, my ancestors and I have explored the dark regions in depth. Believe me, I'm more familiar with this godforsaken place than any of you. Those fools will only get themselves killed and attract monsters from the dark region to come looking for trouble. But I'm different, I know what dangers are lurking in the dark region and how to eliminate and avoid them... That's why I came here."

  At this point, Zhan En reached into his bosom and pulled out the pass that he had obtained earlier.

  "If it's alright with you, I'd like to meet with the person in charge here. I think he'll be very interested."

  Seeing Zhan En's face, which seemed to say "I'm here just to give you face, hurry up and kneel down to thank me for my kindness", and hearing his arrogant tone of voice, the surrounding mercenaries all let out a cold snort.

  This guy is really too overbearing!
