Chapter 713 Forging Youcheng

Under the gray and cloudy sky, the four people moved forward slowly through the weeds and hillsides. The hot magma was at the other end of the field of vision, but it brought a rather pungent smell of sulfur.

"Is this really okay?"

"Maybe, just pretend to be calm."

Pei Renli pointed to the other side of the field of vision. There were many people entering the camp through the stone bridge over the lava. They were in groups of twos and threes and dressed in various costumes:

"Look at them, there should be no ban on travelers there, so just pretend that nothing is wrong and walk over."

Anna was a little worried that they would be discovered, especially since the four of them were walking upright on the hillside, she might be able to see them from a long distance away.

Anyway, there is no cover at all on this hillside. There are only a few lonely trees. Even if you want to hide, there is no place. And if you use invisibility spells, it will look more suspicious if there are anti-invisibility settings.

"Yes, be more upright and don't expose your flaws."

In comparison, Senior Varela is very calm, but in fact she is the biggest flaw among the four.

The Shadow Plane is not a lower plane and is not that dangerous, but because the Shadow Plane connects all the mortal worlds, here you will see ruthless people from all planes gathering together.

In addition, because the shadow plane is connected to the underworld of Death, and the lower plane is connected to the underworld, theoretically, you can walk in a very large circle from the lower plane directly into the shadow plane, so you will also see people coming from the outer realm.

of creatures.

Which of course also includes very dogecoin devils, devils, devils and devils.

And I have to say that good people are relatively rare here, and it is really inappropriate for a paladin to have his big thorns coming out.

In order to make this senior sister less obvious, Pei Renli first spent half an hour preparing a magic ritual and used the 'camouflage camp aura' to give senior Varela a long-lasting blessing.

This spell cannot directly change the alignment, but it will disguise the original alignment while the spell is in effect. No matter whether you use spells to detect it, or people like demons who are very sensitive to the good alignment, they will not be able to learn Varela's true identity.

To be on the safe side, Perrenli simply disguised Varela's camp from lawful good to neutral evil. Now, even if Varela uses Detect Evil on herself, she will see a clear red light on her body.

In addition, Perrenli also used magic to dye Varela's bright silver armor black, and used mud to cover the armor with the holy symbol of Heronis.

In addition, he also took off the clothes of the man in black who was hacked to death before, and used alchemy to simply change the shape, making four large cloaks. The only slight flaw was that Pei Renli was not a professional tailor, and alchemy was simple.

The accuracy of changing the shape of the clothes is not very good, so this kind of cloak will be uncomfortable to wear.

Considering that Varela might be famous, all her distinctive personal characteristics had to be erased.

The most iconic wrought copper rod was definitely unusable, so Varela borrowed a long sword from a colleague. Her wrought copper rod was now in Perenli's hand, making people think it was his staff at first glance.

He carried his own staff on his backpack and wrapped it in a cloth strip.

Anyway, the master will bring a lot of odds and ends with him when he goes out, so no one would think it strange to bring an extra staff.

Finally, Varela was given a mask that was made of wood and transformed through alchemy. After this transformation, not even Varela’s colleagues could recognize her, let alone people they didn’t know well.

Already.

As for the others, there is no need to panic at all. Whether it is Anna, Eve or Perrenli, they are all from the chaotic neutral camp. Even if the demons stand in front of them, they will not realize what they are doing. They are not against the good camp.

creatures are so sensitive.

There are often people coming in and out of the camp under the tower, and travelers from far away can often be seen entering the camp, so Pei Renli and the others only need to pretend to be travelers. Everyone is calm except Anna who is a little worried.

.

After all, as a half-elf, Anna's ears are more conspicuous than those of humans, and one of the original inhabitants of the shadow plane is the shadow spirit.

As a type of elves, they also hate half-elves very much, so it is normal for Anna to be a little worried.

Just as he was about to calm Anna's nerves again, suddenly a message came from not far away:

"You! Yes! It's you!"

When they were about to approach the camp, two guys in black emerged from the long grass not far ahead and trotted in the direction of the four of them.

This made Anna immediately put her hand on the hilt of the sword, thinking that she had been discovered.

"Don't be nervous, let's take a look at the situation first."

Pei Renli noticed that the two men in black did not draw their weapons and did not look like they were coming to attack them, so he quickly reassured his teammates.

Soon, the men in black ran near Pei Renli and the others, and one of them shouted:

"All mercenaries must stay within the camp!"

Another one also shouted angrily:

"Mercenary, next time you run around again, we will shoot you!"

Pei Renli squinted his eyes, glanced around covertly, and immediately explained:

"I'm sorry, we are customers here to buy things. It's our first time here and we don't know the rules."

These words made Anna's heart lift into her throat.

They say you are a mercenary, so just go with it. What if you are exposed?

"Oh, first time here?"

One of the men in black took out a short stick similar to a wand and waved it at the four people's positions. The short stick lit up with a dim magical aura the moment it was waved.

"Go over there. Then take the north road and find a room first after entering the camp. Otherwise, we are not responsible for what will happen."

"Okay, no problem."

Pei Renli waved behind him, and the four of them passed the interrogation of the two men in black without any danger.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with the spell to disguise the aura of the camp, otherwise it would have been seen through just now.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Mordra is engaged in the business of arms smuggling. Although it is surprising that he actually has a camp in the shadow plane, he is still essentially a businessman.

In this case, it is much more reliable to pretend to be a customer than to go in as a simple traveler, especially when Pei Renli noticed that many people were coming in and out of the camp, which meant that this place was actually closer to a market.

Of course, it wouldn't be a big problem if he was exposed. Pei Renli had confirmed that there were only those two men in black around, so the worst he could do was to overturn the table.

In short, the four of them passed the interrogation easily and approached the edge of the mercenary camp without incident.

What lay before the four people was almost a city. Under the patched canvas tents there were open-air taverns, market stalls, pharmacists, herbalists, weapons and armor shops, butchers and fruit and vegetable shops, all of which were selling loudly.

Looking further inside, there are numerous training grounds among the countless tents.

Soldiers of different races fought with each other with swords and shields. In some quiet corners, combat casters could be seen training, with the light of magical flames dancing between them.

When the four of them got closer, they found that most of these mercenaries were not creatures of the shadow realm. Although many shadow spirits with extremely pale skin could also be seen, the grounds and camps were crowded with orcs and hobgoblins.

Ogres and trolls, lizards and kobolds, as well as a dozen other monster races, and even some low-level demons are also mixed in.

There are probably thousands of people in this camp located under the tower, and it is divided into several areas. Different areas are separated by thick log walls.

So standing on the edge can only see these, and it is not clear what other areas are used for.

Like the two men in black before, there were also people in the same clothes guarding the entrance to the camp, but they were not interested in the arrival of Pei Renli and the others. Maybe they had seen too many travelers and were too lazy to glance at them.

, which allowed the four people to successfully sneak into the camp.

The part they entered was more like a market, where they could see many strange people, whether they were customers coming to buy things or shopkeepers selling goods, none of them looked like good people.

The products sold are also very secretive. Even though Pei Renli has read a lot of books, he still doesn't know them all. However, judging from the clues he has seen so far, there are many banned potions and necromancy spells sold here.

The raw materials required, as well as the internal organs that can be cut directly from monsters or people and can still beat under the wrapping of magic.

Cursed magic items are as common here as salted fish in the wet market. It even clearly states how many people this cursed item has deceived and used as a promotional bargaining chip.

As they walked along the winding streets, they even bumped into a few Babu Demons, but the Babu Demons seemed to be more interested in what looked like human embryos in a culture tank, and didn't pay attention at all.

When a paladin passed by him.

To be honest, Perrenli was not worried about others, but he was more worried that Varela would suddenly draw his sword and strike. After all, this ghost place was not in line with the values ​​​​of a paladin in any aspect.

However, Perrenli still underestimated Varela's endurance. She followed the team closely without stopping no matter what she saw. Only the clenched fists under the cloak that exposed the veins could give some idea of ​​her mood.

Anna, on the other hand, was very worried before coming in. After coming in, not only was she not worried, but she became curious about the things sold around her.

It's right to think about it. Anna became an adventurer because she was very curious and didn't want to stay in her hometown and be a rural woman. Although she had accompanied Eve through thousands of mountains and rivers in the past two years, the shadow plane was not what she wanted to do.

Come on, the painting style that is different from the mortal world makes Anna very curious.

As a result, sometimes she would wander to the store next door while walking, which forced Pei Renli to look back from time to time to prevent her from getting lost.

And Eve is the one who has the most peace of mind.

This camp didn't seem to bring back any more memories for her, and the previous trance seemed to have recovered, and she followed Pei Renli's steps step by step.

In short, they have come in, what is the next step?
