Chapter Seventy-Nine: Top Ten on the Team

"The Azure Sword?"

Before Andrea could react, Herman next to him remembered something, frowned and asked:

"The mercenary group that killed Vonkesim first the last time you hunted the Templars in Stari Marca, and took his rifle away by the way?"

"Oh!" Andrea immediately came to her senses, and then her expression was complicated.

Grabbing someone's head or something, it's also a common thing in the big mercenary group, after all, this thing is purely based on strength, and you can't help it if your fist is not big enough.

Moreover, the size of the fist is related to the number of attendees for each mission, and the number of attendees is directly related to the labor cost, so "how to attend with fewer people", so as to "subdue competitors and complete the task", is a perennial research problem of the headquarters of major mercenary groups.

For example, the headquarters of the Iron Cross Mercenary Regiment even hired professional-level accountants and actuaries from Venis to evaluate the difficulty of calculating various tasks and the corresponding number of attendees.

Of course, they can only estimate, not predict.

For example, this task is estimated to be solved by about 200 people, but when I arrived at the scene, I found that there were 300 people from the "Wind of Freedom" mercenary group on the opposite side, so the task of competing for the task was naturally not able to compete with the other party.

If you can't beat it, then the various expenses incurred by your own 200 people during the mission attendance period will become a complete loss because they don't get the task reward.

The major mercenary groups have not thought about cooperation, for example, today I sent out 300 people, you sent out 300 people, everyone did not have the strength to stabilize each other, and they didn't want to directly kill each other and lose both, so simply cooperate to complete the task and share the remuneration equally, which is also an occasional occurrence.

Of course, the premise is that everyone does not show flaws throughout the process.

If one of them suffers heavy casualties during the mission, then I'm sorry, I'm going to change what was set before. Why? Because your fists aren't hard enough now! The fist is not hard enough, what kind of integrity can I talk to you?

The hunt for the Templar von Maxim could have been a model of friendly cooperation between the two sides.

At that time, Matthews, who was free in the wind, brought slightly more mercenaries, and in terms of individual strength, Andrea's side was superior.

Neither side is sure of killing the other, so it's perfectly possible to work together to kill mission objectives and split the mission rewards equally.

As a result, he was unexpectedly intervened by a small mercenary group called the Blue Sword, first defeated Vonxim in a sniper duel, and then ran away despicably before everyone could react.

By the time the Iron Cross and the Wind of Liberty arrived at the scene, Vonksim had already hung up and their weapons had been taken away.

Half of the original 1,000 pounds worth of Templars were taken away, leaving only a 500-pound human head. If there is only one mercenary group, it is easy to say, but the two mercenary groups have to share the 500 pounds equally, then the cost performance of this mission is a bit ugly.

Therefore, Andrea and Matthews intrigued and stumbled with each other along the way, and all kinds of frame-ups, poisoning, misleading and discord came, and even the two sides almost broke out into full-scale conflicts several times, and finally sent Vonksim's head to the nearest Catholic diocese.

Then they received 250 pounds each......

Andrea still has a toothache when she thinks about it now, and she tossed Lao Tzu for so long to earn a mere 250 pounds, and she was criticized by the headquarters because of the sniper hanging up, and even her year-end performance was affected.

It's all the fault of that Azure Sword!

Seeing the complicated expressions of the two mercenaries, the two kings of Sparta were also a little surprised. Originally, they just planned to throw out the name, and then they could explain that "the Spartans have cooperated with the Azure Sword, so don't bother with your Iron Cross mercenary group".

Unexpectedly, looking at Andrea's expression and reaction, it seems that he has known the Azure Sword for a long time, and has also had some unfriendly dealings.

So Kapsus made a quick look, and Rudasius immediately understood, and hurried out to find Asker.

————————

In the open space near the dormitory, Eleanor, Peggy, and Sidlifa were practicing against each other, and Asker was watching.

The outer circle of the clearing was filled with Spartan scouts. Hood huddled in the middle of the Spartan teenagers, staring at Aske through gritted teeth.

Inexplicably taken to the Boy Scouts, and then inexplicably trained for a whole day, all of which were physical training such as weight-bearing cross-country, standing stance, 100-meter obstacle sprint, and javelin throwing.

Although there was an adult Spartan warrior who took care of him and didn't hurt him much, sweating and muscle soreness were inevitable.

Asker, this bastard, I thought that if he didn't join the official establishment of the mercenary group, he would have no reason to train me, but I didn't expect this guy to use a shady trick!

If you don't avenge this revenge, you swear not to be a man!

"Hey, that's the Azure Sword you came from?" A few Spartan teenagers asked Hood.

"That's amazing! That blond-haired samurai! Someone said in envy, "Look at her shield-wielding skills, she can even take such a domineering attack, and her experience is definitely not worse than our instructor!" ”

"And that black-haired one, so fast! Faster than the best 100m track and field athlete in Athens! I can barely see her movements! ”

Everyone expressed their envy in unison. The child always worships the strong, and even with Hood, he feels honored, and he is fluttering for a while.

"Alas, what is this, you are still rare and strange." Hood made a disdainful expression, "See, the man standing next to the field is the leader of our Azure Sword Mercenary Regiment, that is the real super powerhouse, and the three of them on the field can't beat him together." ”

"Really?" The Spartan boys' eyes lit up.

"Hey, Hood, what is your combat power ranking in the Azure Sword Mercenary Regiment?" A teenager asked curiously.

"Ahem. I'm not an adult yet, it's not the same. Hood was a little embarrassed.

"Isn't that black-haired girl also an adult?" Another teenager said.

"Uh......" Hood hesitated, and immediately patted his chest and said, "It's not me who blows, our regiment commander has a good relationship with me, and often teaches me some combat skills." Although I am not yet an adult, my physical fitness is not comparable to that of an adult, but my combat effectiveness can also rank in the top ten in the regiment. ”

"Oooo The Spartan boys nodded their heads in admiration.

Just as Hood continued to blow among the teenagers, the battle on the field was already decided.

Although the "Goldfinger" used to improve the stealing ability has been returned to Quintus after the end of the Battle of Olin City, Peggy, with a lot of actual combat experience during that time, has been able to steadily separate an additional phantom.

Seeing her dagger swing horizontally, she split into a phantom and struck Sidlifa from the left and right.

Sidlifa naturally knew the power of the Immortal Phantom Sword, and hurriedly fired a whirlwind slash to force the two of them back.

As she turned her back to herself, Eleanor slammed Sidlifa to the ground from behind.

"Wonderful battle!" The Spartan teenagers applauded in unison.

However, the next scene suddenly made them jaw-dropping.

Sidlifa snorted and fell to the ground refusing to get up.
