Chapter 8: The First Mercenary Mission

On Abaylou's way to the town, a big event happened on the mainland.

The kings were terrified by the news of Abdul Be's destruction, and the fleet cleared a large number of prisoners, but a large group of people escaped, and once this group of fugitives was scattered in various places, it was too difficult to pursue them.

This is not the most troublesome thing, the fleet was actually attacked by Naga when it returned to May Harbor, and being attacked in the offshore sea is not a joke, which means that the offshore sea has been infiltrated and the coastline is dangerous.

When the Sapphire King heard that there was a Naga near the Sapphire Kingdom, he didn't sleep all night, and he was still dealing with the matter urgently when the sun was up.

In fact, many people may not know that Abduambi is a kingdom. That's right, you heard it right, it's the kingdom, the canonization from the Holy See, Abdul Bi is the kingdom of the rightful name.

It's just that the king doesn't live in Abdulb, but in Mayport.

So Abdul Bi was almost sunk by the shelling, and King Abdul Bi couldn't sit still and ran to the Sapphire royal court to demand justice.

It's annoying, this guy, find a reason to kill him.

The Sapphire King looked at King Abdulby, who was still shouting loudly, and gave a look to the guards next to him, so the guards kicked King Abdulby, and King Abdulby lay at the feet of the Sapphire King, and the Sapphire King was horrified and said, "You want to assassinate me?"

So King Abdul Beh was carried away from the left and the right.

It's a pity, even the land of projectiles is the lord of a country, and now it has ended up like this.

Pearl Town, the name of this town, is rich in pearls, and the atmosphere in the town is very simple, but also extremely superstitious and cultist.

When Abailou came, the whole town was praying in the church, and the prayers of "the god of the sea protects my harvest ......" and "I made a mistake ......" stimulated Abailou's ears to ache.

The only mercenary guild in the town was actually a small wooden shed of only five square meters. Isn't there even a few mercenaries in this town?

Mercenaries are a very important profession in this world, wandering between all walks of life, wars rely on soldiers, and dirty work uses mercenaries, that's the case. Mercenaries do a lot of miscellaneous work, looking for things, stealing things, killing people and smuggling, guarding, repelling monsters when there are monsters, and even mercenaries accept war contracts and participate in the war directly.

Anyway, dirty and dead mercenaries are not loyal, and it is better to spend a little money to consume them than to consume loyal soldiers.

What's more, mercenaries are a group of very capable porters, and those who are not strong have long since died.

After waiting for an hour, the reception staff of the Mercenary Guild returned, a rickety old man with a scar on his face.

"I didn't expect that the mercenaries also participated in the worship religiously. Abaylou said a little jokingly.

The old man took out the things he used for work and said with a smile: "No way, people are old, so they have to leave some for their children and grandchildren." Young man, you didn't come to this town to make fun of me. ”

Abailou took a registration form, filled in the information a long time ago, and handed it to the old man, "I plan to register a mercenary status." ”

The old man glanced at it, just glanced at the name, and then engraved a mercenary badge with two crossed swords engraved with the name of the mercenary written by Abailou, and handed it to Abailou.

Moon Scythe.

For the mercenary guild, it doesn't matter whether your identity is dirty or not, as long as you complete the task - accept some tasks that the mercenary guild considers to be dangerous and difficult, you need to pay a deposit, and if you die, the deposit will go to the guild.

"Are there any high-value tasks here? ”

"Let me see...... Well, the most recent one is...... There is, a fisherman asked to find his son...... His son has lost news in Pearl Cliff in the past two days, and he hopes someone will ......"

"Hey, old man, I've found Cohen's cat, and I'm here to get my pay. ”

A young man rushed in, glanced at the ragged Abaylou, gave him a disgusted look, and handed over a cow-colored cat to the old man.

"Alright, you wait here for a while, I'll go and call someone to inform the Cohen family. ”

"Hahahaha, I'm the best mercenary in town, this kind of garlic triflage is a breeze. ”

The old man ignored him, but continued to say to Abaylou: "This fisherman wants someone to help find his son, and the reward is ...... Two silver coins. ”

"Tell me about the details. ”

"Pearl Cove is a bay eight kilometres from here... I speculate that his son was eaten by sharks, because Pearl Cove has a submarine cavern where sharks feed every year. And the pay is not very high, no one wants to explore such a dangerous place..."The old man looked at Abai Lou with some embarrassment, "but this is already the highest paying commission." ”

"Two silver coins?" Abay Lou muttered, it was really not much, according to the currency conversion of his time on Earth, it was about two hundred yuan.

At least I can change my clothes, "I'll take this task." Abaylou signed his name on the registration form.

The young man overheard the conversation between the two and rushed out to grab the watch that the old man was about to take back, "Wait a minute, old man, why did you give this most difficult task to a down-and-out beggar who doesn't know where he came from? He snatched the registration form and wrote his name on it, "Here you go, old man, I'm going to do it too, I'm with this person." ”

What else did he want to say, but the master of the previous mission had arrived, so he gave up what he wanted to say and turned his head to talk to the gold master.

The old man frowned, scolded and said, "I don't know how to be a kid, what kind of big-tailed wolf is pretending to be." "I don't have the same kind face as I just looked.

Then he said apologetically to Abailou, "I'm really sorry if you change it again...... This kid will be a burden if he follows you. ”

Abailou waved his hand, "It's okay, it's good, I'll take him to do it." ”

I have to pay for changing tasks, but I don't have a single copper coin.

"Well, the fisherman said that this kid has been missing for two days and hopes to find it as soon as possible. ”

Abay walked out of the mercenary guild, followed by the arrogant young man. The young man was both talkative and impolite, and Abaylou only listened to him, and never spoke to him.

"So, I'm the most powerful mercenary in this town, hey, this guy, what kind of eyes is this, you're not dumb, why don't you ignore me, look at you in tatters, it can't be a guy who just came out of a ravine and hasn't seen the world, it's so pitiful......"

As he spoke, the young man seemed to be hypnotized by his own sympathy, and sighed, "It's okay, I'm covering you, it's not your fault that you don't mix well, after all, the starting point is different...... and then put his hand on Abayro's shoulder.

"Take it away. Abaylou said.

"What?"

"Take your hands away, or I'll die." Abaylou's eyes were glazed, and the young man withdrew his hand in a daze.

The chill felt by the young man made him lose his mind for a moment, and then he followed Abailou, "What kind of attitude are you, rude fellow......"

Although he still didn't show weakness in his mouth, he never dared to touch Abailou again.
