Chapter 60: A Sudden Mission
It's been a month since Lei Luo and the others joined the Raiden Mercenary Group. They were assigned mercenary tasks such as escorting and protecting the outside world, after all, several of them were familiar with this aspect of the business. The fanged dagger had been snuggled by his side since that night, yes, snuggly. After returning to their accommodation that night, Relo, Mahiff, and Mauser were in a state of excitement, and it seemed like something to celebrate to be part of this mercenary group and them, with a noble purpose and peace of mind. Rejoicing, Mashif found Memphis sitting alone on the bed with a fanged dagger in his hand, so he shouted at Memphis:
"Hey! Memphis, what's wrong with you? Did you fall in love with it? Hehe. ”
This is a joke, who would have thought that Memphis suddenly raised his head, nodded solemnly and replied:
"Yes, I have decided that from now on, at all times, I will always carry it close to me!"
Relo Mahif and Mauser were stunned.
"Memphis, how are you? Didn't you really fall in love with that dagger? Although I admit it's pretty cool...... "Mashif himself is a little messy."
"Memphis, did you find anything?" After Lei Luo was happy, he seemed to think of something. Memphis has always been the most calm and intelligent of the men, and he should have discovered something in this way.
When Memphis heard Relo's question, he first despised Mashif's intelligence, and then slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Our captain is not ordinary, this weapon fangs are still a low-level magic channel!"
"What!"
"How is that possible?!"
"Have you ever wondered why this weapon requires blood and meditation? I tell you, it's because our mental power is too low to make it easy for it to leave a spiritual imprint, so we need to recite it a hundred times. Those with high mental power only need to drop blood and leave their mark in the crystal. I just experimented, I held the dagger in my hand and silently recited a lot of sentences, only when I silently recited the name of the regimental leader Wright 10 times, but my own voice suddenly appeared in my head, saying: Memphis! Got it now, right? As long as you have the end of the dagger with fangs, even if you die in battle, you can recognize our identity! ”
"Shhh ~”
As Memphis finished speaking, the surprised inhalation of Lei Luo and the others suddenly sounded in the room. Sure enough, it's the handiwork of a master forger! The head of the regiment is really courageous! At this point, the four of them decided that unless they died, they would wear fangs even when looking for a woman!
A month passed quickly, Zhang Yang's life was rare calm and monotonous, and every day he either absorbed the energy of the fighting energy in the Doyasun River, or wore more and more complete mountains to exercise his physical strength in the mountains and forests to absorb the fighting energy. Occasionally, he will find trouble with some Warcraft around level 1, as for hunting in the group, he doesn't have to worry about it, and he is also called the "Flashing Captain" by many team members, after all, he has too little time to appear in front of everyone at the station every day.
On this day, when Zhang Yang returned to the Thunderbolt Mercenary Group station wearing half a mountain covered in sweat, he found that many people were gathered together and were discussing. In the greeting of the young man standing guard on duty, Zhang Yang entered the hall. At this time, in the hall, the main members were actually there.
Neilgelina, Dubbins, and Relo, the Junior Squad Captain Binny, the Female Pharmacist Sanali, and a new female bronze warrior, Si Weina.
Anyway, at this time, there are as many as 12 female pharmacists and female therapists in the Raiden Mercenary Group! There are even more pharmacists than the medical hall in Balxus. Among them, there are 8 pharmacists and 4 therapists. It's really enough to bluff people, these beauties are all treasures, and another one of the ordinary mercenary groups burns high incense, and there are many small mercenary groups and scattered mercenaries who don't have healers and even recently started to go to the Thunderbolt mercenary group station to seek medical treatment. Therefore, even groups such as ruffians and hooligans in the city would not want to trouble the Raiden Mercenary Group, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain.
Si Weina doesn't look like a single mercenary who has been living abroad all the year round, because she doesn't have the aura of being trained for a long time. The girl said she was 22 years old, but in the opinion of Dubins in the group, being able to pass the age of 18 is a big hurdle. He is about 1.7 meters tall, his body looks a little thin, his appearance is medium, his skin is fair, his expression is charming, and his eyes are smart with a hint of cunning. However, what attracts people's attention the most is her ...... Embarrassment.
Seeing Zhang Yang's arrival, everyone stood up and saluted. Immediately afterward, Zhang Yang knew what was going on from Niljielina's mouth. It turned out that early this morning, a notice was posted on the bulletin board at the gate of the city lord's mansion. It is said that a cult meeting place was found in a cave about 50 miles east of Balksus! A few evil wizards and dozens of evil followers actually built a demon altar there, apparently trying to summon demons to descend. The team of adventurers who discovered this place consisted of 15 people, and it is said that when they discovered the altar, they also alarmed the members of the evil gathering place and launched a hunt for the adventurers. The group of adventurers fled until they reached Balxus, and only two members of the adventurers' team were killed, and this was due to the gatekeepers repelling the evil followers. It was precisely because of this that Joseph, the lord of Balksus, would forcibly recruit a large number of mercenaries to destroy the cult assembly house, and as for the city's army, it was impossible to send it out because it had to protect the city.
Zhang Yang frowned after understanding what was going on, things didn't seem to be so simple, so he asked:
"Okay, won't you go?"
"No, my lord, this kind of license order issued by the city lord must be executed, otherwise he will be ordered to drive out of the city, but the city lord of this column will give the same amount of remuneration, because unless it is a task such as assisting in the defense of the city in wartime, the city lord cannot command the mercenaries to do things for free." After hearing Zhang Yang's question, Dubbins quickly explained.
"Oh, then, this time, what, the reward? Touched, how many people? ”
Hearing Zhang Yang ask, without waiting for Dubins to speak, Binny took the lead and shouted loudly.
"Captain! This time the city lord is very generous, and the biggest reward for the task is actually gold coins and a fighting spirit! Any mercenary group with more than 50 people can choose to ask for 1,000 gold coins or the bronze high-level fighting spirit handed down by the Joseph city lord after completing the task: Soaring Wind Fighting Qi! And the mercenary alone is also paid at the rate of 15 gold coins per person! My lord, let's hurry up and choose someone! ”
"Quiet! Beanie. This matter has to be decided by the head of the group, so we just have to follow the plan of the head of the group. Niergelina interrupted Binny, who was shouting excitedly, and turned to Zhang Yang and said:
"My lord, how do you decide?"
Zhang Yang thought for a moment, then calmly looked at everyone and said:
"Go, but, personnel, select. And everyone, instructions, tasks, dangers, great. ”
"Captain, how can this mission be extremely dangerous? Balksus calculates that there are seven or eight hundred mercenaries, and even if they can't be thrown away, there will be at least more than 300 elite warriors, and it should be easy to crusade against dozens of people, right? After Si Weina heard Zhang Yang's words, she reflected that it took more than ten moments to understand, and then raised her own questions.
This time, without waiting for Zhang Yang to speak, Mashif spoke.
"Beauty, think about it, if it is a very simple matter that can be solved, wouldn't it be nice for the city lord to mobilize half of the city guards and the Silver Pegasus Legion soldiers to attack, and then arrange mercenaries to assist in defending the city, so that he can save a lot of gold coins. It is precisely because of the high danger of this mission, which may affect the safety of Bacus with heavy casualties, that the city lord spares no expense in gold to ask mercenaries to fight for this kind of merit for him. If it can be completed, his city lord can be added to the rank of knight, and there will definitely be more and better gold coins and fighting qi laws, and we don't care about it. If he doesn't succeed, he won't have to pay at all! You have to see it clearly. ”
"Is that so? How do you know so well? ”
Swina was a little skeptical, but she and Binny saw that everyone else had serious expressions on their faces, and realized that things might not be as simple as the bulletin suggested.
"In short, since it is necessary to go, inform, everyone, voluntarily, go. This time, the remuneration is in full. ”
Zhang Yang looked at the people on the left and right, although he was a little helpless, but most of the people in the Thunderbolt Mercenary Regiment lived in Balksus, and they couldn't leave if they wanted to go for a while, not to mention that there were so many children. Therefore, knowing that this task is dangerous, I have to join. It's just that the number of personnel is not forced, and it is completely voluntary.
"Everyone, go and prepare, Zero, you stay."
"Yes, sir."
Hearing Zhang Yang say this, the others saluted and left one after another, and when Si Weina, Lei Luo and the others finally went out and closed the door, only Zhang Yang and Nierjielina were left in the house.
After going out, Si Weina suddenly showed an excited look, pulled Dubbins' sleeve and asked eagerly:
"Uncle, uncle! Do we often kick everyone out like this, and then leave a beautiful woman in the group alone to do something embarrassing?! Am I going to be treated like this? People are so scared~"
Hearing that Si Weina had misunderstood her master in this way, Du Bins hurriedly pulled Si Weina aside to clarify.
"Oh, Miss Si Weina, you don't have much contact with the head of the group, so you don't know him as a person. I also followed him for a long time before I realized that the head of the regiment is kind-hearted and extremely self-disciplined on weekdays. Although he is young, he has a calm and indifferent mentality that many old people do not have. So he's never been too close to Nilgerina or any other girl, he's treated like a subordinate, don't get him wrong. Don't be afraid of him. ”
"Really? Uncle, but I don't seem to be innocent when I look at Miss Niljielina. ”
"Hey~ Miss Niljielina has been with adults for the longest time, and I heard that they have experienced many things together. It's normal for her to have some other emotions, are they all young people, although Lord Wright is very good, and his heart is good, but he just seems a little too cold. So it seems like it's just wishful thinking. ”
"Oh, that's right...... What a strange person. ”
"Miss Si Weina, I see that you seem to be very interested in Master Wright. I don't want to say much else, but I just hope you don't have a problem with Miss Nilgelina because of this matter. I'll go first. ”
After speaking, Dubbins left with some emotion, leaving only a thoughtful Si Weina there looking in the direction of the main hall......
