Prior to the discovery of the Everfree Forest, people also often encountered wild beasts in some of the forests and grasslands in the eastern part of the continent. In order to distinguish the abilities of these beasts, many people divide the beasts according to the amount of energy contained in the crystal nucleus in their bodies. For example, the energy contained in the crystal nucleus of a flame tiger is roughly equivalent to the energy limit that a fifth-level fire-based magician can release, so the flame-type tiger can also be called a fire-type fifth-level beast.

After the Everfree Forest was discovered and attracted thousands of mercenaries, people also divided some unknown beasts according to the same level, and Lin Qian took the opportunity to release the book "Endless Forest Mercenary Adventure Guide", recording the appearance location, level, strength and weakness of various beasts, and the sales were also very hot.

But all explorations will encounter difficulties, especially when the mercenaries have explored the territory of the ninth-level beasts, they have to be discouraged. Longitudinal exploration is now almost non-existent, and most mercenaries have begun to explore along the mountains to the south and north.

According to common sense, human beings are inferior to beasts in their own abilities, and even with the help of magic, it is difficult for a magician of the same level to defeat a beast of the same level. The eighth-level beast already needs a ninth-level magician to deal with, but when you encounter a ninth-level beast, where can you find a magician in the Dacheng stage? Since you can't defeat it, it's better to extend your poisonous hand to your teammates, so that it may be easier to make a profit, even if it is also a desperate method.

It's not that the mercenaries haven't thought about uniting to deal with the beasts, but they are here for profit, how to be willing to do their best, not to mention that there are distribution problems and casualties at that time, it is easier to be a lone ranger, and this is also very in line with the arrogant nature of the magician.

"For the sake of the present day, the only way to do this is to bring about the union of these proud magicians. Boris, who had not been seen for a long time, suggested. After he and Kelly got married, he spent a lot of time in Gentle Township, and he brought Kelly from Crystal City to help not long ago.

Lin Qian sighed: "I've also thought about this problem, but they are all used to being free, how can they take the initiative to find others to unite, besides, there are still large unexplored forests in the north and south of the canyon, which is enough for them to take the crystal nucleus." ”

Boris disagreed, shook his head and smiled: "Since they will not take the initiative to unite, then we will create conditions for them to have to unite." ”

"Oh?" Lin Qian knew that he was a little clever, which was why he was looking for advice.

Boris analyzed slowly: "The mercenaries' reluctance to unite is nothing more than three reasons: one is worried about uneven distribution, the other is afraid of teammates stabbing in the back, and the third is that the level of one mercenary can only be improved when the crystal nucleus is crossed, and other helpers cannot be promoted, which can be regarded as an additional distribution problem." As for arrogance, not wanting to unite against the enemy, it's just an excuse, and in the face of interests, everyone will put down their faces. We can just solve each of these three reasons one by one, so what's so difficult?"

Boris was obviously prepared, took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Lin Qian, which explained his idea with pictures and texts, and he believed that Lin Qian would understand after reading it.

Boris's idea was to be initiated by the guild to establish a mercenary group mechanism to deal with difficult tasks. The members of the mercenary group are all mercenaries of close rank, at least 5 people, who vote for their own trusted leader and are registered by the guild. For each task handover, the bounty is handed over to the regiment commander to distribute according to the contribution, which avoids the problem of uneven distribution. There is no need for members to guard against each other, because even if someone kills one person, there are still other members to share the results, and they can't enjoy it exclusively, which avoids the problem of teammates stabbing each other. When the task is handed over, if you increase the level of the entire mercenary group, you can go to a more advanced task, and your mercenary level will no longer matter at this time, and no one will give other opinions, which solves the third problem.

After Lin Qian read it, he immediately approved Boris's proposal and added two more items. The first is that the newly registered mercenary group will be rewarded with 1 gold coin, 50 silver coins, 20 silver coins, etc. per person according to the membership level, and if the level of the entire mercenary group is improved, there will be richer additional rewards. In addition, the first registered mercenary group will be rewarded with 10 gold coins, the second 5 gold coins, the third 2 gold coins, the top 10 will be rewarded with 1 gold coin, and the first 100 will be rewarded with 50 silver coins.

Then Lin Qian posted the S-level task that he had prepared to release: find people with lofty ideals, kill the ninth-level beast three-headed giant snake, take the dark crystal nucleus in its body, and reward one hundred gold. This is the strongest beast that can be encountered so far, according to its corrosive venom attack, it should be a dark beast, plus the strength is strong, the ninth-level magician can't defeat it, so it should be a ninth-level beast. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward, the ninth-level crystal nucleus that was originally worth 20 gold coins was mentioned by Lin Qian for 100 gold coins in one breath, and I believe that soon a mercenary group will come to exchange money with the crystal nucleus.

As soon as several announcements were made, the mercenaries in the hall exploded like a pot, and then a group gathered together, ready to discuss the establishment of a mercenary group.

"Let's register the mercenary group! This is the card, six people!" a middle-aged magician squeezed near the window regardless of the image, and threw out six mercenary cards, trying to get the 10 gold coins first.

"Six A-class mercenaries, well, that's the A-class mercenary group, have you decided on the name?" the staff asked after reviewing.

"Name ......" The middle-aged magician glanced at the S-class mission on the bulletin board, and his heart moved, "Then call it the Three-Headed Snake Mercenary Group, we're going to slaughter that guy." ”

"Okay, may I ask who the head of the regiment is?"

"It's me—Quinton. ”

The middle-aged magician seemed to have some fame, and the people around him looked at him with admiration when they heard this name.

The old magician behind the staff took out a gold card, carved it for a long time, and handed it to the front desk after completion. At this time, the receptionist had already counted the bonuses and handed them to Quinton: "Hello, the three-headed snake mercenary group has been registered for you, this is your mercenary group card and each mercenary's card, this is all the bonuses, you can use them freely." Have a great adventure!"

Quinton got the mercenary card, squeezed out of the crowd, found his 5 teammates, sent his personal bonus first, and said with a straight face: "This hundred gold coins are shared by our group, if you can trust me, I will keep it for the time being, I will tell you every time it is spent, and you can also calculate it yourself." Now that we're a unit, we'll take the money for a meal together, and then we'll buy some equipment, and this time we'll definitely want the three-headed snake to look good. ”

The other 5 people already trusted Quinton very much, and when they heard him say this, they all nodded in agreement, and everyone suddenly had the concept that they were a whole in their hearts.

Because there was really nothing good to eat in this temporary town, the six of them simply paid the money and went to Crystal City through the teleportation array, found the branch of Fulai Restaurant in Crystal City, and asked for a private room after entering the door, ordered a table of dishes, and asked for a lot of drinks, and talked about it with laughter.

"Captain, what are you going to do with that monster?" asked a fire mage

Quinton took a sip of his wine and confessed, "To be honest, I'm not too sure, but the first few times I fought it, I found that the thing was a little unguarded behind it, and the six of us could divide three of them to attract its attention, and the other three were behind me ready to sneak attack." If it reverses its target, we will directly change its identity and fight it on its back. ”

"Well, but it's so fast, it's hard to escape. The wind magician, who had a scar on his head, said with a sigh of relief. His scar was the result of a splash of venom, albeit only a specimen.

Quinton nodded in agreement: "So we have to cooperate, three people to help each other, plus the other three behind the back, I don't think it's without a chance." Also, in the evening we go to buy some magic scrolls, which can be used if necessary, and everything is still based on safety. ”

In fact, there is another advantage of the establishment of the mercenary group that Lin Qian did not expect, that is, the flow of funds. In the past, mercenaries fought on their own, and although they were self-sufficient, they had no worries about food and clothing, but they didn't always save much money, and they wanted to buy some magical equipment to arm themselves, but they couldn't compete with others. Now that the mercenaries can gather money into the group, it is easier to purchase equipment and the like, which makes the funds flow back to Lin Qian's hands faster.

That night, the auction house sold for more than 150 gold coins. This made Lin Qian make a lot of money beautifully, and he was even more sure of the benefits of the mercenary group.

Three days later, when Quinton entered the hall with a huge black crystal nucleus with his head held high, the entire hall was silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on all the members of this so-called "three-headed snake" mercenary group.

Quinton strode towards a window to hand over the task, and the mercenaries, who were still in line, immediately flashed to the side to make way for the man.

"Look, what is this?"

Quinton sent the nucleus into the window, only to be caught by a young magician. The young man didn't dare to draw conclusions easily for a long time, and found an old man to identify it.

"Well, it is indeed a ninth-level crystal nucleus, and the energy contained in it may be able to dissolve this hall in an instant. The old man excitedly touched the smooth crystal nucleus, as if he had seen a rare treasure.

The receptionist hurriedly prepared a hundred gold coins, respectfully handed them to Quinton, and helped him change the level on the mercenary group card to S-level by the way.

"Sir, is your arm okay?" the receptionist was a little horrified when he saw Quinton's outstretched arm.

"It's just rotten flesh and skin, just find a light mage to treat it. Quinton didn't care, though his arm was rotten, and he could see the bones of the forest.

"That's right, there is a special healing room on the second floor of our guild, and there are many light mages in it who can help you heal for free. ”

"Free?" Quinton seemed to be a little incredulous, how could this guild ask for money everywhere, how could there be free treatment.

"Yes, this is a new place set up by the Elder to ensure the safety of the mercenaries, you can check it out. ”

"Alright, I'll go. Quinton packed up the bounty and went up to the second floor with five of his teammates.
