Chapter 28 Entering the Bandit Mountain
Even though Leo knew that the stubborn griffin wanted the fragment of the God stone, he didn’t have the slight intention of giving it away just like that.
At the same time, Leo didn’t want to kill it as it helped him get the fragment of the God stone.
Nevertheless, he knew it would not last for long with its half-recovered injuries and decided to let it follow them until it died.
Time continued to pass as five hours passed by in a flash.
Leo and Julia were still walking towards a mountain, and behind them, a griffin followed in a half-dead state.
‘Sigh’
Julia would either try to heal or feed it something; however, the griffin was still as stubborn as it was five hours ago.
In the end, she could only sigh and give up on it.
‘It is persistent. I never expected it would hold for more than five hours.’
Leo secretly took a few glances at the griffin and silently evaluated it.
He was impressed with it; however, he would not give away the fragment of the God stone just because he was impressed with its persistence.
“Finally, we are here.”-.
After walking for another 30 minutes, Leo and Julia reached the base of a mountain.
“Is this the notorious bandit mountain?”
Julia had heard about it when she was in her old team.
Even though everyone knows this mountain is the home of mountain bandits, no one dares to enter it to capture them.
Because the entire mountain was filled with all kinds of traps that might even kill a rank 7 hero if he was careless.
“This entire mountain is filled with mountain bandits. So, do you want to follow me?”
Leo asked Julia because he felt there was no need for Julia to enter the mountain full of bandits.
“Even if you follow me, I can protect you while taking care of these mountain bandits.”
Before Julia could answer, Leo, assured her that protecting her was not a big issue for him.
“Brother Leo, I think I should stay here. But please don’t take long.”
Julia thought about it for a while and decided to stay behind.
She wanted to follow Leo and see how he would kill the mountain bandits who killed hundreds or even thousands of innocent people.
However, at the same time, she didn’t want to become a burden to Leo as it might put both of them in danger.
“But, leaving you here, I don’t feel assured. So, follow me.”
After saying those words, Leo didn’t wait for Julia’s reply as he entered the mountain.
‘Earth manipulation.’
The moment he entered the bandit mountain, Leo used his earth manipulation talent to trigger all the traps within a 10-kilometer radius around him.
‘Boom’
‘Swoosh’
‘Puchi’
‘Boom’
In the next moment, all the landmines exploded, hidden arrows rained on the empty ground, and all types of traps were triggered.
“Who dares to mess with our ‘Bandit mountain’?”
The commotion caused by the explosions was great as many rank 4 and rank 5 mountain bandits rushed towards the mountain base.
“Who do we have here?”
Initially, when they heard the explosion, all the mountain bandits felt the Phirie city’s leader had sent some powerful guards to take care of them.
That’s why so many rank 4 and rank 5 mountain bandits were assembled in such a short time.
However, after coming to the mountain base, all they could see was a young man and woman in their early twenties and behind them, an injured griffin.
“Looks like we will have a party tonight…haha.”
One of the mountain bandits looked at Julia and laughed as his perverted looks were all over Julia.
“I don’t like the look in your eyes. Why don’t you close them forever.”
Leo revealed a cold look on his face when he heard the bandit’s words as he directly took action.
Just as he finished his words, the bandit who looked at Julia with perverted looks fell into a hole that appeared below his feet.
Before the other mountain bandits could pull him out of the hole, the hole closed, burying that mountain bandit alive.
“Someone dig here and pull him out.”
“As for others, kill that brat and let’s enjoy the girl.”
The mountain bandit who had the strength of rank 6 hero ordered the rank 4 and rank 5 mountains.
‘So, he is the lord of these mountain bandits.’
It was clear that the mountain bandit with the strength of rank 6 hero was the strongest one. So, Leo guessed he was the leader of the mountain bandits.
‘But according to the details on the mission, there will be no rank 6 bandit and only a single rank 5 bandit who was their leader.’
‘However, there are more than a dozen rank 5 bandits, and their leader was a rank 6 bandit. Isn’t it a little too much incorrect information?’
Leo thought about the details of this mission and realized that the entire information was wrong.
‘Looks like the mission hall of Phirie city is not working properly.’
The mission hall of every city should only put the missions on which they have accurate information.
Even if they were a single mistake, they would be punished by the city leader; however, the information on Leo’s current mission was completely wrong. Even if a group of elite heroes took the mission, they would have never returned to the city.
‘What do I even expect from the Phirie city?’
Leo shook his head as he observed all the mountain bandits and causally checked their talents.
‘For mountain bandits, their talents are not bad.’
Almost all the mountain bandits have good attacking type talent that makes them even more fierce.
‘But too bad, they have me as their enemy now.’
Leo shook his head and waited for the mountain bandits to come at him.
“Yes, Vice lord.”
Everyone respectfully nodded their heads at that rank 6 mountain bandit before executing those orders.
‘Vice lord?’
When Leo heard those words, he was surprised and thought, ‘So, he is not the leader of these mountain bandits.’
