After listening to many interesting experiences of Steve, Ivan couldn't help but have the idea of becoming a mercenary. Mercenaries can accept all kinds of commissions, making it a good place to train. As a magician, fighting is an instinct, and who doesn't want to give it a try?

Ivan told Steve his idea, and Steve refused at first, but Ivan had to be a mercenary, and Steve had no choice but to agree to take Ivan to experience the life of a mercenary.

Old Frank considered that nothing would go wrong with Steve's leadership, and after a moment of hesitation, he agreed, mercenaries are actually the choice of many magicians who like freedom and have no family and inheritance.

In fact, most of the powerful magicians and warriors outside of the nobility will choose to join the kingdom or the nobility, and most of these people are mid-level strength.

As for those with primary strength, due to their limited strength, they generally choose to join the rich or find a job. Duke is one of those people, and a fourth-order warrior is enough to join the nobility or the kingdom.

However, the status of a warrior of the same level is much lower than that of a magician, and his own cultivation is not systematic, so he will not receive much attention, so Duke accepted the invitation of old Frank.

Although the status of low-level magicians is indeed limited, it also depends on who they are compared to, and they are still much stronger than ordinary people.

After practicing magic at home for a few days, Ivan was finally sure that he could release it in ten seconds. For low-level mages, instantaneous is unrealistic, Ivan's standard is less than three seconds, but it still requires a lot of practice.

On the morning of the seventh day home, Ivan and Steve rode fast horses to the Mercenary Guild. The first time I rode a horse in my life, although I was taken by Steve, it was also a novel feeling.

The magician also has to ride a horse, which is indeed too low, and it is really far from what Ivan wanted to travel by magical beast or with magic. This always reminded Ivan of a certain stalk from his previous life.

"I also think that magicians use magic to travel, or to ride a monster, riding a horse always feels inappropriate for a magician. Ivan shared his doubts with Steve.

"You, it's just that you have too many fantasies, not to mention whether there is such a spell or not to use magic to hurry, even if the huge magic power consumed has to be done by a high-level magician! Riding a demonic beast is even more unreliable, and the demonic beast is so easy to provoke? Adult demonic beasts are not to mention whether they can be captured, but it is a matter that they are difficult to tame. ”

"Most of the beasts that can be tamed are young beasts or oviparous monsters that have not hatched. That price is not affordable for ordinary people, and even more unaffordable. ”

Hearing Steve's words, Ivan felt that the magician riding a horse was nothing. But in the future, whatever he says, he will have to get a powerful demon pet, and Ivan can't accept such a humiliating thing as riding a horse, if he returns to his previous life, he won't be laughed to death!

Riding a horse was much faster than riding a carriage, and the two of them arrived at the Mercenary Guild in two hours. The union is a three-story building made of stone bricks, with two stone carvings at the door, and a badge with a magic wand crossed with a knight's sword.

These two stone sculptures are the founders of the Mercenary Guild of Glowlight City, a high-level mage and a high-level warrior. That badge is a mercenary badge, and those symbols are the ancient literal word for mercenary, so let's go inside. Steve gave Ivan a brief introduction.

Walking through the door, there are all kinds of people in different costumes, some drinking and chatting, others watching from the quest bar.

It's like a bar, Ivan said secretly. Steve led Ivan to the counter, where a man in his forties and fifties sat at the front desk, taking an inquiry from a mercenary.

"Hey, shouldn't it be a beautiful and sexy reception lady? How can it be a half-old uncle! Ivan shouted in his heart, and his enthusiasm for being a mercenary was reduced by half.

"Excuse me, sir, do you have anything to do? I took my nephew to register as a trainee mercenary. ”

The middle-aged man looked left and right, "Where is your nephew?" ”

"I'm here! Why are you making your cabinet so high?" Ivan felt that his self-esteem had been hurt and he was a little dissatisfied when he saw that the old man was ignoring him.

The middle-aged man looked down at Ivan and said to Steve seriously: "Sir, please don't joke, we are here to entrust the task, not a place for children to play." ”

"Well, I'm bringing my nephew over to see it, the guild doesn't rule that children can't be mercenaries, and Ivan is already twelve years old. Steve said helplessly, although he knew that what people said made sense, but he had promised Ivan, so he had to talk about the rules.

"This is indeed a place that the guild does not regulate, because no one will come over and mess around like this, you can bring your nephew to play by yourself, don't delay my work. The middle-aged man naturally refused sternly.

"Who said I came here to make a fuss, I'm serious! You don't have the right to refuse a person who meets the rules to become a trainee mercenary!" Ivan retorted loudly without waiting for Steve to speak. Although I came to play, I definitely can't admit it.

Many mercenaries heard the dispute at the front desk, and many good people came to watch.

"What? I heard you right, this kid is going to be a mercenary? I think it's about the same as hiring someone to play with him. The voice came from the mouth of a young man dressed as a guard, carrying a short sword and drinking.

A woman in a mage's robe next to her took over and said, "Really, children are not sensible, and adults are also messing around. ”

Others who watched the excitement also responded one after another.

"Let's go by yourself, do you still need me to invite?" said the middle-aged man with an impatient expression.

"This?" Steve glanced at Ivan, and when he saw Ivan's determined gaze, he felt that it was a shame to walk away in such a gray way.

"This is my mercenary badge, and I ask you to consider it seriously as a silver mercenary. Steve pulled out a silver badge with two stars and handed it to the middle-aged man.

The rank of mercenaries is also simple, divided into nine orders and three ranks. Orders 1 to 3 are brass badges, and the owner is called a brass mercenary. Levels four to six are silver badges, and the owner is called a silver mercenary, and seven to nine are gold badges, and the owner is called a gold mercenary. One to three stars represent which order.

In short, as soon as the silver badge came out, the field was instantly shocked. The first floor of the mercenary guild is the reception area of the brass mercenaries, and everyone naturally knows the power of the silver mercenaries, and the second floor is the reception area of the silver mercenaries, which also shows the difference in status.

"Hello Dear Silver Mercenary, even if your status is different, this matter also needs to be explained, and I can't come nonsense as a hospitality. ”

As soon as Ivan heard this, he knew that things still relied on strength to speak, and without saying a word, magic started! A blazing fireball appeared on Ivan's fingertips, and Ivan looked at everyone in a daze: "How is it? Do you want to try the truth of my magic?"

Everyone picked up the eyeballs that had fallen to the ground and realized that this little guy was already an official magician!

"No, no, this young master only needs to pay a fee of one gold coin to become a trainee mercenary, and he can become a full-fledged brass mercenary by completing ten basic commissions. The middle-aged man's attitude immediately improved, and even his title changed.

Ivan popped out a gold coin, satisfied that he had pretended to be successful, no wonder so many people enjoyed such a low-level fun. also played a variety of routines, and it was really not ordinary cool!

"This is your trainee badge, so keep it safe, the post has basic missions for trainee mercenaries. The middle-aged man handed Ivan an iron badge.

"Is this the end?" asked Ivan, disappointed.

"It's really over!" said the middle-aged man weakly.

It's too easy, isn't it! Ivan didn't know how to complain for a while. "Uncle, what are we going to do next?"

"Of course, it's a selection task, I'll show you. After Steve's words, he pulled Ivan to the commission release column.

The release bar is divided into four parts, with one to three stars of brass task commissions, and there are inconspicuous basic commissions, and there is not even a commission order, but it is written on the board with a pen.

- Perform magic tricks with the magicians of the circus.

- Catch or kill wild cats that come to the house at night to bark.

- Teach a lesson to three scoundrels who often harass ladies.

- The Heath Comptoir was in dire need of a large number of porters for a week, requiring them to be physically fit. Free meals, accommodation available.

- Exploit the quarries, hire a large number of mercenaries to clear the barren mountains, and drive out wild beasts. Fees are paid daily, and a minimum of one week is required.

......

What the hell is this? This is the legendary mercenary? It's just a bunch. Could it be that I opened it the wrong way?

"Ivan, there are a few short-term missions that are good for you, and this one is a good one to catch cats. Steve didn't notice anything wrong with Ivan in the slightest, and commented on the mission.

"Uncle, don't you think there's anything wrong? These are also mercenary tasks?"

Steve looked at the disappointed Ivan and said patiently: "This is the entrusted task, don't think about those fights and kills or weird and bizarre." The usual things are good. Mercenaries generally rarely take on high-risk tasks, and people cannot always be accompanied by danger. And these simple tasks are not that easy. ”

Well, you can't give up halfway now, you only have less than a month left, you have to get a bronze badge, and if you take a long time, you won't consider it.

Ivan picked out a few short-term notes to go to the front desk.

"This young master, you can only choose three missions at a time, please forgive me. ”

Ivan also understood the union's considerations, so he had to pick three that were easy to complete.

"This cat catcher is really good, and this one is performed with a magician. Well...... Which one is the last one? How about teaching the scoundrel a lesson? Whatever, as long as it's fast enough. ”

Ivan quickly selected three entrusted tasks and asked the middle-aged man to make notes. However, what made Ivan speechless was that the most commissioned money was only three silver coins, but fortunately, he was just here to experience the experience, otherwise he really couldn't accept it.
