Chapter 279: Test
After Yang Yi and the three of them explained everything to Steward Cao and Fang Yuan, they went directly to the White Jade City City Lord's Mansion to have a short conversation with Wu Sheng, as if asking him to take care of the free mercenary group more often.
After Yang Yi and the three returned, they directly led the team to the starting point of this mutual delivery mission, the Xinghui Mine, one of the largest Star Stone Mines in the Star Empire.
Half a month later, Yang Yi and his entourage finally came to the Xinghui mine in a large bird. I saw that there were dense miners mining the mine in the mine, and this mine had been hollowed out for more than half of it, and it was obvious that it was about to be hollowed out. At this moment, a group of guards above the strength of the sect realm came one after another to surround Yang Yi and his party, with a ruthless face.
"Who are you, and what are you doing here? Among the many guards, a middle-aged man in silver armor walked out and asked.
"This brother, we are a free mercenary group, and we are here to pick up the goods. At this time, Yang Yi walked out and clasped his fists with both hands.
"Pick up the goods? The middle-aged man in silver armor asked.
"Wanbao Pavilion's goods. Yang Yi replied.
"Is it the goods sent to the Iron City?" the middle-aged man in silver armor continued to ask.
"Yes. Yang Yi replied.
"There can be a certificate. The middle-aged man in silver armor asked.
"Yes, please see. Yang Yi took out the voucher given by Wanbao Pavilion and handed it over politely.
After the middle-aged man in silver armor took it, he nodded and said, "It seems to be true, but you still have to wait here for a few days, the goods are not full, and the person in charge of the handover of Wanbao Pavilion has not come." ”
"Okay. Yang Yi smiled faintly.
"You are encamped outside the mines, and you are not allowed to set foot in the mines. The middle-aged man in silver armor continued.
"Understood, don't worry. Yang Yi replied.
"Let's get out. At this time, the middle-aged man in silver armor sent away the guards around him and turned to leave.
"Hmph, what a cow, isn't it just a star stone mine that is about to be hollowed out, what's so great, let's not step further, I'm sorry. Xiang Haoyu looked at the departing figure of the middle-aged man in silver armor, and felt unhappy in his heart. It seems that the middle-aged man in the silver armor heard Xiang Haoyu's complaint, stopped, and walked back with a cold face.
"What you said just now?" The middle-aged man in silver armor walked in front of Xiang Haoyu, exuding a faint majesty and being aggressive.
"Hehe, so what. Seeing this, Xiang Haoyu, who was already unhappy, smiled coldly and forced his momentum back.
"Hehe, boy, it's okay, don't think that you can do whatever you want if you have excellent talent, if it weren't for the face of Wanbao Pavilion, Lao Tzu would have kicked you out a long time ago. The middle-aged man in silver armor sneered.
When Xiang Haoyu heard this, his face twisted, and when he was about to make a move, Yang Yi stopped him.
"Haoyu, don't be reckless, don't forget that we're here to take over the mission. Yang Yi hinted.
"This big brother, I'm really sorry, my brother is more aggressive, I hope you will forgive me. Yang Yi hugged his fists and apologized to the middle-aged man in silver armor.
"Well, it's still your kid Dong Mingli, unlike this kid who has no one in his eyes. The middle-aged man in the silver armor was satisfied with Yang Yi's matter.
When Xiang Haoyu heard this, a ball of anger ignited, and he said coldly: "It should be you who has no one to describe in my eyes." ”
"Even so, so what, just because your small sect realm is arrogant in front of me
, I don't understand why Wanbao Pavilion chose your group of wastes to escort the extremely important stone mines. The middle-aged man in silver armor sneered.
As soon as the middle-aged man in silver armor said this, all the free mercenary groups and others were furious, and even Yang Yi, who had an extremely gentle personality, was furious with this sentence.
"Lao Tzu, I see that you are looking for death. Xiang Haoyu finally couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and with a flash of thunder under his feet, he kicked the middle-aged man in silver armor away.
"Bang"
The middle-aged man in silver armor smashed like a cannonball into the mine not far away. The guards who had just returned to their original position heard the sound and surrounded Yang Yi and the others, with fierce eyes on their faces, as long as they gave the order, they would attack like a pack of hungry wolves.
Seeing this, the Free Mercenary Group and the others took out their weapons one after another, turned their backs to their backs, cautiously looked at the guards around them, and were ready to respond to the enemy at any time.
"Bastard, take down this free mercenary group for me. The middle-aged man in silver armor crawled out of the humanoid mine hole that had been smashed out, and said with a grim face.
But at this moment, a deep sound came.
"Wait. ”
Yang Yi and the three of them followed the sound, and saw a young man in silver armor and a personable demeanor striding towards them.
"Yang Yi, Xiang Haoyu, Wang Ye, I didn't expect to see you here. The silver-armored young man hugged his fist towards the three of them.
"Are you?" Yang Yi said curiously, because he didn't know the young man in front of him at all.
"In Xia Milan, I used to be a student of the Star Academy, and when you participated in the Academy Qualifying Tournament two years ago, my sister and I often watched your games. The silver-armored youth replied.
"Who is your sister?" Yang Yi continued.
"The little sister is Mickey who was rescued by the Yang Yi brothers. Mi Lan replied.
"Oh, I remember, it was her. Yang Yi suddenly realized.
"After two years, I didn't expect you to become mercenaries, the world is unpredictable. Mi Lan was surprised.
"Isn't it good to be a mercenary, isn't it the vocation of a mercenary to train the mainland. Yang Yi said with a smile
"What Captain Yang said is very true, but let's please, let's talk inside. Mi Lan invited.
"Wait, Miran, how can you allow outsiders to enter the mine without permission. At this time, the middle-aged man in the silver armor asked with a dead face.
"They are the escorts of this cargo and should be waiting in the mine. Mi Lan replied.
"But..."
As soon as the middle-aged man in silver armor said two words, he was intercepted by Mi Lan, and after whispering a few words in his ear, he showed a trace of fear on his face and left in a hurry.
Yang Yi looked at the departing middle-aged man in silver armor, very curious, and asked, "Brother Mi Lan, what did you tell him just now?" ”
When Mi Lan heard this, she covered her mouth and chuckled: "Even if you lie to him, you are all the sons of high-ranking officials and nobles in Star City, if you are offended here, be careful that you can't get good fruits to eat." ”
When Yang Yi heard this, he immediately admired his wisdom and said with a smile: "It's still Brother Mi Lan's smart." ”
"Let's go, we have something to talk about or talk inside. Mi Lan invited again.
Yang Yi and others followed Mi Lan to a large temporary tent, which is understood to be Mi Lan's office, but now it has become a temporary residence for Yang Yi and others. However, Mi Lan only stayed for a moment before being called away by a guard, who should have an urgent need
Therefore, the Free Mercenary Group and others are waiting here. And in order not to cause an embarrassing situation, Yang Yi also deliberately stipulated that no one was allowed to leave this tent, so as not to cause trouble, especially Xiang Haoyu himself, who was directly reprimanded by Yang Yi.
"Patriarch, isn't it a bit risky to let the Free Mercenary Group be in charge of delivering this stone mine this time? In a quaint palace, a burly man, facing a rich old man who was drinking tea and holding an ancient book in his hand, looked at it with taste.
"Why not, aren't you quite optimistic about them. The rich old man put down the ancient book in his hand, a pair of deep eyes shot a fine light, and said with a faint smile.
"Patriarch, having said that, the journey to the City of Steel is dangerous. You must know that the Iron City is located in the realm of chaos, and this place is in turmoil all year round, and bandits are in charge, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for the free mercenary group to successfully send these quarries to the ground. The burly man replied.
"Hehehe, how can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain. If they don't show some strength, how can they be worthy of being our Dong family's allies in the future. The rich old man said mysteriously.
When the burly man heard this, he immediately understood what the old man meant, his eyes shot a big essence, and he clasped his fists and saluted: "It's still the patriarch who is wise." ”
"Li Yan, you should go to the Xinghui Mine and escort this batch of minerals with the Free Mercenary Group, there must be no mistake. If you have to do it, you can't use the hidden guard of Wanbao Pavilion. At this time, the rich old man suddenly became extremely serious and ordered.
"Yes. Li Yan responded with a fist.
"Also, in addition to ensuring that the minerals can reach the Iron City without any problems, if the Free Mercenary Group is doing extremely well, let's exchange their VIP tokens. The rich old man directly threw out three blue tokens and threw them to Li Yan.
"Patriarch, this... This... It doesn't have to be so fast. Li Yan looked at the blue VIP token in his hand and said in surprise.
Because the blue VIP token is extremely rare, only the family, power or strong person who has a good relationship with the Dong family is qualified to have it. Specifically, he understands that there are only more than ten people in this Tianxing Continent who have this blue VIP token, but he didn't expect the patriarch to be so atmospheric, and he plans to give this blue token to the three boys who have not yet stepped into the king realm, which is a rare event in the world. If the world knows about it, it is estimated that they will be shocked by the big teeth.
"Hahaha, I can't help the wolf with the child, if they can really complete this escort mission perfectly, it shows that they have this potential, if they can't start early, they will probably be snatched away by other forces. The rich old man smiled.
"The subordinate understood. Li Yanming realized.
"By the way, remember that you can't let Miss know about this, if you let him know that I secretly came up with an idea to test the potential of the free mercenary group, I guess he won't spare me. The rich old man smiled bitterly.
"The subordinates understand. Li Yan replied respectfully.
"Alright, let's go to the Starlight Mine quickly, don't let the Free Mercenary Group wait in a hurry, I guess they have arrived. The rich old man waved his hand.
"Yes. Li Yan answered, and then turned to leave.
"The Free Mercenary Regiment hopes that you will not disappoint me, otherwise..."After Li Yan left, the rich old man's deep eyes shot out bursts of essence, and he smiled mysteriously, looking at the teacup in his hand that exuded a faint fragrance.
As everyone knows, Yang Yi and the three of them, who are still obsessed with receiving a big order, will be a deliberately huge test that will fall on their heads, prompting them to embark on a road of no return to the Tianxing Continent, and it is also a stepping stone for them to gallop the continent and achieve the peak powerhouse.
