Chapter 73 Current Status of the Guild

is the sword.

Star took a heavy breath. He pushed away the thorns, and Xiuyi, who was covered with blood, was humpbacked by the sword.

I have to say that this strong mercenary has been tortured by the harsh environment here. The heart mirror on his chest was smashed, and a shocking wound on his left shoulder was through the white bone, leaving a horrible blood hole as big as a bowl. Moreover, the wound is also seriously purulent, and the turbid ** emits a stench. He had fainted. When Jian Mang arrived, Xiu Yi had been targeted by a corpse-eating demon.

"Your Excellency, why are you here?" Xiu Yi opened his eyes with difficulty, and the shaking of his body made him die in pain.

"Don't talk, bite it!"

Star pulled a piece of clothes and stuffed it into Xiuyi's mouth. He casually pulled out a dagger and burned along the flames spewing from the ground. Xiuyi's injury is very serious. If he is not treated as soon as possible, even if he can escape this disaster, he may become disabled.

"Hear with it. I'll heal you now."

The hot dagger pierced Xiu Yi's shoulder fiercely, and Xiu Yi couldn't help shuddering. Star gently cut off the rotten meat on his shoulder, where there are white granular pieces of meat, which are eggs excreted by a common man-eating flies in the destruction wilderness.

Xiuyi's armor has been smashed. With a gentle pull, it all fell down.

Star took out the powder in his arms and gently patted it on the wound, and then pulled off his robe and began to bandage it.

"Wow... Thank you, my lord." Xiu Yi took a long breath and turned pale. Why did you come here?

"For that tower!" Star held Xiuyi on Jian Mang's back. "Let's save Anna first."

The Black Tower is a landmark building for the destruction of the wilderness. From the first time the Guardian Mercenary Corps stepped into this land, it has appeared in the land of Gru. No one knows when it existed on this continent, but it is undoubtedly the handwriting of human beings.

Half a month ago, a big event happened to Anna's family, so most of the official members of the Guardian Mercenary Corps were recalled. Only this group of cubs were left to guard the station. I didn't expect such a big thing to happen.

"What you mean is that when the Guardian Mercenary Corps was established, there was already a space door to the abyss plane." Star frowned, "Then human footprints have appeared here for a long time."

Sta calmed down. This series of things happened so coincidentally that he had to think of something. Half a month ago, it was time for me to escape from the Death Forest, and at that time, another big event happened to Anna's family. As a result, the Guardian Mercenary Regiment left the station and was then attacked. But there are almost no artificial manipulation traces here!

"That's exactly what happened. Those should be from the alchemy guild and occupy a very high position in the guild. We once dug out a stone tablet here, which recorded some interesting things. Xiu Yi said.

"Interesting thing? I'm afraid it's about the Black Tower or the Gate of Space. Star said what was on his mind.

"Yes, that tower is called the Tower of Gru, which has the same name as this region. It is said that as long as the 'Hradik Magic Box' is inlaid in the groove of the altar at the top of the tower, the door of space will be fully opened. At that time, the space crack here is enough to let the upper demon pass!"

It's the 'Hradic Magic Box' again! Stamer nodded silently. No wonder Anna would give the magic box to herself. Even if such a big thing happened here, she would let those mercenaries prevent her from coming in. In this way, Tanis must also know about this, but why did she hide it from her?

The thorns gradually became sparse.

A piece of wasteland appeared in front of the two people. They had just experienced a killing not long ago, and the ground was full of demon's corpses.

The swordmang shrugged its nose and smelled the human smell remaining in the air. Its eyes are always on the tower of Gru, as sharp as ever.

"There are five of them left!" Star kicked the mummified corpse at his feet and said to Xiuyi. They are all human beings. Why do they want to kill these demons? After opening the door of space, the devil invades the main plane. What are the benefits of them?

Most of the demons lying on the ground are killed with one blow, and the fatal point is poked out of a hole in the mouth of a bowl. Star knows that creatures that dare to stop them will be brutally killed.

"The devil's ** is always everywhere. Alchemists are a strange group. When they bring glory to human beings, they also bring destruction.

As expected, Xiuyi's straightforward words told Starr the current situation of the guild. Now, it is not as united and harmonious as it seems.

The alchemy guild has been gradually separated into two factions a long time ago, which are conservatives who value tradition and radicals who tend to be represented by power. Conservatives are more inclined to change those wrong alchemy, making the formula of alchemy more perfect. Tenaciously adhere to those old traditions in an increasingly degenerating environment.

And the radicals are not so much alchemists as politicians and power seekers. They pursued power and glory, and stirred up the smoky atmosphere of the boundless guild. In order to make the alchemy guild have a higher status on the continent of Hastan, it does not hesitate to use all means. They plan to put some median demons into the main material side, and then save the continent as a savior. To suppress the status of the Holy See and the Magic Guild.

In the struggle between conservatives and radicals, another life exploration faction emerged three years ago. They have integrated the characteristics of the two factions and are gradually growing. Today's alchemy guild has been divided into three parts.

"Although this is bad, it is true. But I believe that one day everything will be fine..."

"The conservatives led by Doriel are ready to fight back..." Xiu Yi added.

Dorill, this is the second time that Star has heard his name. He is not only Bill's best friend, but also the leader of conservatives. If there is a chance, Starr is really going to meet him. However, according to Xiu Yi's words, Star also has some understanding of the alchemy guild.

If there is no mistake in guessing, then Sadek should belong to the third faction, and the conspiracy in the capital of Azeroth is laid by the radicals. The conservatives who have never appeared are much weaker than Star's imagination... After all, not many people will like to stick to the old creed. Money, power and beauty, and even permanent life are greater than the so-called beliefs for many people.

Star smiled bitterly. If Doriel had really begun to fight back, he would not have pursued the group of people to get here.

Xiu Yi knew what he was laughing at, and the expression on his face was also very bitter. Conservatives are not limited to alchemists, but Xiu Yi himself belongs to this faction. In order to fight against the other two forces, Doriel had to attract allies everywhere.

"You are a good alchemist and holding Sadek's secret. If you can join the conservatives..."

Star waved his hand. He didn't say anything about the attitude of conservatives and didn't want to get in their affairs. Because Starr hates this feeling very much, letting himself join the conservatives is undoubtedly a taboo for Sadek. Mastering yourself undoubtedly wants to take yourself as a final bargaining chip? Or is it a random chess piece? No matter which one it is, it makes Star feel very annoying!

He doesn't want to put himself in a conspiracy again. He has had enough of the taste of living in the alchemy castle!

"What if we can help you kill Sadek?" Xiu Yi refused to die.

"In that case, I will consider it."

"I will talk about the specific situation with Lord Doriel in the future. I believe he should be able to help you lift the wanted notice."

Humph, it's a political conspiracy again. Starr didn't look back, but waved his hand to Xiu Yi and said, "Let's save Anna first. After such a long time, I don't know if she will be in danger."

There is no difference between day and night in the land of Gru, and the whole earth is red by the flames gushing from the cracks.

I don't know how long I have walked, and I don't know how many thorns have been cut. The two finally stopped at the bottom of the Gru Tower. This tower is bigger than expected, and Star even doubts whether it can be made by human beings!

"There have been traces of fighting here, which is very fierce." Xiu Yi said.

"And someone was injured!" Star added. Now there are only five of them left.

The two looked at each other and saw the uneasiness in each other's hearts. He settled down and touched the Black Tower.
