Chapter 2008: To Use Them as Cannon Fodder

“Elder Li, what’s the matter?” Miss Mu’s voice came from inside the carriage.

“It’s nothing, Miss.”

Ning Shu lowered her head to think. The only possible reason they hired these mercenaries when they already had such powerful guards would be to use them as cannon fodder.

In any case, once they’ve arrived at Death Mountain, she’d leave them and operate on her own.

The journey the mercenary group took with the Mu family went very smoothly. When they encountered a town, the guards took out a token engraved with “Glory to the Mu family clan” so they could pass by unimpeded.

Ning Shu didn’t spend a single cent on the road. When she was hungry, she just ate the rations she brought.

When they encountered danger or robbers, they needed mercenaries to take action.

The closer they got to Death Mountain the more disorderly it was. It was even common for robbers to rob other robbers.

For example, right now, Ning Shu was encountering the third wave of robberies. There were always people who were not afraid of death. In addition, the Mu family’s reputation was very weak here.

With fish and dragons mixed together, there was no way people would care that they were from some Mu family.

Ning Shu also clumsily fought the robbers. Ning Shu always held back her full power since someone was always staring at her. To be precise, someone was always observing the mercenary team.

That person was probably the old man.

Ning Shu instinctively dodged something, gritted her teeth, and let herself get a little hurt.

Ning Shu felt as if something bad was going to happen. She had a feeling that Miss Mu’s reason for going to Death Mountain was not simple.

When they arrived at Death Mountain, she really had to leave this group to go off on her own.

The robbers were eventually all killed and their corpses were disorderly spread across the ground.

The old man who Miss Mu called Elder Li released his summoned beast, which was a dark green snake.

The snake was so gigantic that when it appeared, it filled the air with a suffocating stench.

The mercenaries couldn’t help taking a step back after they saw the snake and they looked at it with envy and fear.

The snake spat out its tongue, bowed its head, and swallowed all of the people on the ground. In a matter of seconds, his stomach was bulging outwards.

Ning Shu looked at the snake’s stomach. The snake’s digestive ability was really strong; the bodies were already digested.

The snake seemed to just function as a weapon to get rid of corpses. She couldn’t help but wonder if this old man would deliberately kill someone to feed his summoned beast.

“It’s dark now. Let’s set up camp here tonight and enter Death City tomorrow,” Elder Li said.

The mercenaries all sat down. Ning Shu leaned against a tree and glanced briefly at the wound on her arm. She prepared to go look around and see if there were any herbs around that could stop the bleeding and heal her flesh.

“Here.” The mercenary with the scar on his face gave Ning Shu a bottle. “Drink.”

“Thank you.” Ning Shu took the small bottle, opened it, and smelled it. It had the stench of medicine.

This was probably a low-level medicine, around the level that a medicine master’s apprentice would make. Even those who weren’t medicine apprentices might be capable of making it.

Medicine masters were able to purify the properties of herbs and mix all kinds of medicinal materials to make their medicine.

The medicine that Ning Shu currently held was quite crude. It had a lot of impurities and the medicinal ingredients were not fully dissolved.

The medicine made by a real medicine master had no impurities at all. Drinking it could bring alive the bones and flesh of the dead.

Legend had it that there were even medicines that bring people back to life.

Ning Shu drank the medicine. The taste was quite bad and it burned the throat. The medicine was not neutralized at all so it was very irritating to her throat and stomach.

Ning Shu smacked her lips. She felt like she had drunk chili water, even her stomach was burning.

What a shoddy product.

The medicine made by the instructor at the Medicine Academy was an alluring lush green color. In addition, the flavor was quite fresh.

However, medicine of that level was quite expensive and not affordable for mercenaries.
