Thinking of the young mage in front of him from an extraordinary background and a bright future in the future, Bernardine, the one-eyed old man, suddenly had an idea in his heart.

The original carelessness was immediately put away, and Bernardine focused on chatting with Lin Feng, carefully grasping the main points.

Lin Feng was shocked, this Bernardine's question was a bit too much, and he seemed to be asking about his detailed origins, intentionally or unintentionally.

After being alert, Lin Feng was also extra cautious when answering questions.

Bernardine was also an old fox, and as soon as Lin Feng became alert, he felt that something was wrong.

Bernardien smiled bitterly and said, "Your Excellency Master Lin Feng, you don't have to worry, I have no ill will towards you. In the chat just now, he already had Lin Feng's name.

Lin Feng nodded and motioned for Bernardine to continue.

Bernardine lowered his voice and said softly: "Master Lin Feng, you should be able to see that I am an old mercenary, I have been a mercenary all my life, but my greatest wish is to get rid of mercenaries, but unfortunately, apart from being a mercenary, I don't know what else I can do to support myself and my family." ”

"Mercenaries seem to be beautiful, but only those who have been mercenaries know the suffering, I have been a mercenary all my life, I know the suffering, so I don't want my descendants to follow in my footsteps."

After a pause, Bernardine said the point: "My son died tragically in a mission, I only have one grandson to rely on me, my grandson is all my hope, I don't want my grandson to be a mercenary, I hope my grandson can revitalize our family." ”

Bernardine looked at Lin Feng with blazing eyes: "Master Lin Feng, you should have just become an official magician, right?" Surely you haven't taken in the followers, my grandson Jason. Bernardine is willing to be your follower. ”

The Bright Continent is a place where the strong are revered, they revere the strong and revere the strong, and they are willing to serve by the side of the strong, taking the glory of the strong as their own glory, which is the origin of the name of the follower.

Followers are a very special form of existence, they are the right-hand man of the master, the sharp knife and thick shield of the master, they can die for the master, but at the same time, the master must also give them corresponding glory and treatment.

It's an honor to be followed, but it's not uncommon for a mage to have followers, and with their status and status as mages, they don't lack followers.

Magicians can easily amass a large following if they want to.

But there is also a gap between followers and followers, you recruit a few waste to be followers at all, it will only be a shame for yourself, only those who have the ability to be recruited to become followers, it is useful.

It's just that this kind of capable follower is not easy to recruit.

"Sorry, I don't have the idea of soliciting followers at the moment." Lin Feng shook his head and refused.

Although Bernardine is an old mercenary, his strength is too poor, and he doesn't even have the strength of a bronze warrior, what good disciple can he teach with his strength? His grandson is probably not a master either, and this kind of person is not worth recruiting.

You must know that each country has a clear rule on the number of followers, the official magician can have three followers, and the great magician can have six followers, and each level is upgraded to get three places.

This quota is protected by law, and the names of the followers are recorded, and if the followers betray their masters, they will be judged by the law, and at the same time, the number of followers exceeding the limit will also be punished by the law.

Of course, this is a legal provision, and it is not for others to know how many followers are secretly recruited, but this matter must not be known to others, otherwise, it will be punished by law.

Most people are still law-abiding, and Lin Feng doesn't plan to disobey the law at the moment, so he is not too hasty in recruiting followers, at least he has to recruit some useful talents.

If Bernardine's grandson was really a talent, he would have become someone else's follower a long time ago, how could it be his turn, so Lin Feng didn't wait for Bernardine to finish speaking, so he opened his mouth to refuse, and he refused early, so as to avoid embarrassment for the two.

Bernardine observed the words and looked at Lin Feng's frowns slightly, knowing that Lin Feng was insincere, and he could also guess what Lin Feng was thinking in his heart.

Bernardine said: "Please don't be in a hurry to refuse, my grandson Jason is only sixteen years old this year, but he is already at the peak of his warrior apprenticeship, as long as he has an opportunity, he can become a bronze warrior, and his fighting talent is definitely not worse than those so-called geniuses, this is the first reason for you to accept Jason." ”

"The second point is that Jason has been trained by me since he was a child, and he is very proficient in the use of various weapons, and he is good at tracking and setting traps, in addition, Jason is also familiar with all the matters of mercenaries, he is a very experienced mercenary, and when you travel around the continent, Jason is definitely a very useful helper for you."

"And the third point, Jason has a natural consciousness of danger, he has saved his life many times by his own consciousness, I think his ability will also help you."

If what Bernardine said is true, then his grandson Jason is indeed a talent, but he is just an ordinary talent, and young people like Jason are very common in the Bright Continent, and it is not uncommon.

Of course, this is from the perspective of the memory of the Magister in Lin Feng's mind, if it is in Dolan City, Jason's potential is still good, with Jason's ability, it is more than enough to be a follower for a small nobleman, Lin Feng is not why, why does Bernardine want Jason to be a follower for himself.

You must know that followers only have one chance, once Jason becomes a follower of Lin Feng, then Jason can only be a follower of Lin Feng in this life, and he can no longer swear allegiance to others, and the life of a follower is destined to have only one master.

Lin Feng frowned, and asked calmly, "It shouldn't be a problem to serve a minor nobleman with Jason's ability, why should you be my follower?" ”

Bernardine smiled disdainfully: "Instead of following those incompetent nobles, it is better to continue to be a mercenary, at least being a mercenary can be autonomous and free, without being subject to those stupid orders." "It can be seen that Bernardine does not have a good impression of the nobility.

Bernardine looked at Lin Feng and said sincerely: "As for the reason for choosing you, it is that you are too young, with your age, there should still be a great opportunity to impact the higher mage realm, let Jason follow behind you, and he will have a greater chance of development." ”

Bernardine obviously also knows a truth, youth is a person's greatest capital.

Because you are young, you have time to continue to struggle, and because you are young, you have time to continue to improve.

Youth is Lin Feng's greatest capital.

Bernardine glanced at Lin Feng and said again: "I also believe in my eyes, I can't be mistaken, you are not an ordinary person, I have seen many magicians in my life, and I have also seen many famous and powerful people, in you, I have found a kind of temperament like those strong people, you have the mentality and potential to become a strong man, I will not be mistaken, you will eventually become a strong man in the famous continent, Jason follows behind you, and you can definitely be famous in the continent." ”

"Oh, is that so?" Lin Feng smiled noncommittally, but he had a new idea in his heart, for Jason's ability, Lin Feng was dispensable, but in the small talk just now, Lin Feng felt Bernardiane's profound knowledge and understanding of the situation on the mainland, for Lin Feng, an old mercenary like Bernardian was the real Kui Bao.

Lin Feng smiled and suddenly asked, "Bernardine, how about going to my territory and working for me?" ”

"What?" Bernardine was taken aback, obviously not expecting Lin Feng to ask this question.

This will be Bernardine's turn to be confused, what does Lin Feng want him to do in his territory?

Lin Feng said: "I don't need you to do anything, as long as you give me advice when necessary, of course, if you are interested in something, I am also happy for you to do something you like." ”

In Lin Feng's opinion, Bernardine's greatest ability is his experienced vision and rich experience, which is also the biggest reason why Lin Feng wants Bernardine to go to his territory.

Lin Feng's territory is full of some uninformed farmers, and there is a great need for experienced mercenaries like Bernardine.

"But what about my grandson?" Bernardine whispered, his face full of reluctance.

Bernardine's little thought, Lin Feng couldn't see it, Lin Feng smiled and said, "Wait a minute, you can take Jason to my residence to meet me." ”

"No problem, I'll take Jason to you as soon as possible." Bernardine immediately understood what Lin Feng meant, and nodded happily in agreement.

The two chatted a few more words, and then the waiter returned with a box and handed it to Bernardine.

Bernardine used his key to open the box, took out the gold scroll and handed it to Lin Feng.

"Don't give me so much, I want to use nine hundred gold coins to continue to buy the souls of the dead, and nine hundred gold coins to buy thirty souls of the first-class dead." Lin Feng pushed back the nine hundred gold scrolls in it.

"Okay, I'll write it down." Bernardine said quickly.

The soul of the dead is of great use to Lin Feng, and now Lin Feng still has ten souls of the dead, and ten souls of the dead will be used for a period of time, so Lin Feng will continue to issue the task of acquiring the souls of the dead.

But it's not that Lin Feng doesn't have the money to buy enough souls of the dead at one time, but that the souls of the dead belong to dark items, with a hint of taboo, even if he buys the souls of the dead, it is better to keep a low profile, and buying too many surnames at one time will attract the attention of others, so Lin Feng can buy them separately and many times.

After leaving the Mercenary Guild, Lin Feng went to the Magicians' Guild again, and bought alchemy materials worth three thousand gold coins before returning home.

It didn't take long for Bernardine to come to visit with a young man, which was beyond Lin Feng's expectations, he didn't expect that this one-eyed old man was really a quick surname.

Jason is sixteen years old this year, but he is already 1.8 meters tall, with dark skin and a very strong appearance.

After greeting Lin Feng, Jason closed his mouth and didn't speak, but Lin Feng could see that it was not Jason who was deliberately indifferent, but Jason's surname was like this, and he was not a person who was good at words.

No wonder Bernardine was in a hurry to sell his grandson, with a surname like Jason, he really couldn't find anyone willing to take him in.

Lin Feng didn't reject a surname like Jason, I think back then, he himself was almost this kind of surname.
