Chapter 10: First Acquaintance with Twilight

The line was long, but after half an hour, it was finally Shen Mu's turn.

"Hello, is there anything I can do to help you?" Inside the window was a beautiful girl in overalls with a smile on her face.

"Hello, I want to become a mercenary and join a mercenary group. Shen Mu replied while thinking, such a beautiful girl is too wasteful at the window.

"Okay, please provide the basic information you can provide, rest assured that our mercenary guild will keep all mercenary information confidential. The girl was still smiling.

"My name is Mu Mirage, a low-level spirit, and the light system. Shen Mu continued to answer without a trace of hesitation.

"Oh?" the pretty girl was obviously a little surprised, "Are you a spirit?" After all, spirits are already very rare, and various forces have been wooed one after another, and the spirits who come to be mercenaries really can't meet one in a few years.

In the face of the girl's questioning, Shen Mu was prepared, and raised his right hand covertly, and his fingertips emitted a white ball of light, which flashed and disappeared.

The girl covered her small red lips with her hand, but it calmed down after a moment. returned to a professional smile: "Okay, Mr. Mu, if you want to put your information on the mercenary platform, it will definitely cause a big sensation, and considering that you are a spirit, I will directly give you the right to choose a mercenary group." ”

This time, Shen Mu was surprised, the spirit could directly choose the mercenary group, I don't know if it was the privilege that I had all along or the right given by the beautiful girl in front of me privately. I don't think much about it at the moment, and ask to see the ranking list.

The girl simply agreed, because this ranking list was originally open to the public, and it was displayed on the huge screen next door. casually took out the prepared ranking list for Shen Mu to choose.

Shen Mu picked up the watch and looked at it.

The number one is called the Holy Flame, the S-class mercenary group;

Ranked second: Eternal Night, S-class mercenary group;

Ranked third: Tianxia, A-level mercenary group;

Fourth: Tempest, A-class mercenary group;

...

Ranked twelfth: Twilight Snow, A-level mercenary group;

When Shen Mu saw the Twilight Snow Mercenary Group, he suddenly trembled in the depths of his soul, these two words were so kind. It suddenly occurred to me that Twilight was not from the Twilight Mercenary Group. So he didn't look down anymore, and directly chose the Twilight Snow Mercenary Group.

The girl in the window saw Shen Mu's choice, and after smiling lightly, she directly completed the procedures for joining the group. Then he handed Shen Mu a badge with a snowflake pattern and a C letter. "Mu Mirage, this is your mercenary badge, is there any other business that needs to be handled. ”

Shen Mu left the counter after answering no, what he didn't notice was that the beautiful girl in the window also left the window after he left, and then another middle-aged woman sat at the window and continued to handle business.

It was already noon when Shen Mu left the mercenary union, his stomach was growling, and he had to find a place to eat. It's still early, and the most important thing at the entrance of the mercenary union is the tavern restaurant. Shen Mu casually found a restaurant, and when he entered, he found an empty seat by the window and sat down.

"Hello guest officer, what do you want to order?" a shopkeeper hurriedly ran over, all with a menu. Shen Mu took a look at the menu and found that the dishes were not expensive, but the wine was too expensive, so he only ordered a wild boar leg and a green vegetable, and asked for a bowl of rice.

Soon after, the dishes were served, and Shen Mu was about to start eating, but two big men came to the next table, these two big men were very burly, and they didn't order, and they listened to one of the bald heads and commanded to the shopkeeper: "It's the same old way!" After that, the two big men chatted.

"Recently, we have been getting more and more difficult, many members of the group have quit, and only a few of us are still supporting. The bald man said as he drank the tea he had just arrived.

Another strong man with a scar responded: "Isn't it, I can't pick out the low-level martial artists above to join, and now even the middle and high-level martial artists are willing to choose other mercenary groups instead of us." The martial artists who have been cultivated with great difficulty have left one after another because of their poor performance and too few dividends, and if we continue like this, we may fall to the B-level mercenary group, and I am afraid it will be even more difficult to recruit people at that time. ”

"Yesterday, Feng Ye's kid also left, I was really angry, in the past few years, I have watched him step from a high-level martial artist to a middle-level martial artist, I thought that this time I could take on some more difficult B-level tasks, but now there is one less person in our team, even if it is a junior B-level task, it is relatively reluctant. The bald man slammed the stone table, and the whole stone table clicked.

"Lose your temper and take it, and when you have a good meal, you will go to the union to collect people. Scar Man reassured.

"The thought of recruiting new people to train me again, I'm so angry. Low-level warriors are of little help to B-rank missions, and they have to be distracted to protect them. ”

"Guangkan, don't push yourself too much, everyone knows that you are the veteran of our mercenary group and want to help the mercenary group. But if the mission is too reluctant every time, it will make the regiment commander worry. Seriously, it doesn't matter how many people like Feng Ye die, but if you are injured, the regiment commander will have to be furious. ”

"He Jiu, thank you for always helping me, I, the elder, will have a name, if it weren't for that friendship, where would it be my turn to be a middle-level martial artist. I'm just a waste, when we first went on an adventure together, Lin Xue's cultivation was lower than me, and Twilight. Since Twilight's disappearance, Lin Xue has been cultivating hard, and every time she comes back from a mission, she will be bruised all over her body, otherwise she won't be able to do A-level tasks just by relying on a few of us, and the mercenary group would have fallen to B-level a long time ago. ”

"The head of the regiment is also a genius, and he has only cultivated to the middle level of martial arts at the age of thirty-six. It's a pity that there is no second Wuzun in the team of the regiment leader. Otherwise, it wouldn't have to be so difficult to do a task every time. If only there was a knight on the team. The big man named He Jiu drank the tea in one gulp. At this time, the ordered dish also came, and it turned out to be two large plates of beef and two cans of wine.

The two strong men skillfully shared and ate it.

Shen Mu heard their conversation clearly next door, and when he heard the name Twilight, his heart moved again. already knew that the other party was the Twilight Snow Mercenary Group, and after eating, he was ready to walk towards the two big men. Then he remembered something, took out a mask from his pocket and put it on, and then walked over.

While the two big men were eating and chatting, they didn't even notice that the side chief was standing with Shen Mu.

"Ahem, two big brothers. Hello there. Shen Mu had no choice but to cough lightly and remind, reflecting that he existed.

"Huh, little brother, why do you want to eat together?" The bald man saw Shen Mu wearing a mask, and he seemed to be standing on the side for a while, and he didn't think about anything else but thought he was hungry.

Shen Mu was full of black lines, and he didn't beat around the bush, took out the mercenary badge and put it on the dinner table for the two.

"Why? Want to join us? Although our Twilight Mercenary Group is lonely, not everyone can join it. You're afraid you can't even beat a wild boar! The scar man saw Shen Mu take out the badge, which meant that he wanted to join them and hug his thighs. After all, it is indeed very difficult for newcomers to get started.

"He Jiu, look carefully, this is the badge of our mercenary group, he has already joined us. Is it new, and I don't know who approved it. Could it be that..."The bald man was overjoyed, because their mercenary group had set up permission for high-level and above martial artists to enter freely. "You're a high-level martial artist?"

"No, I'm a low-rank...," Shen Mu replied.

"Hey, forget it, then our team members are enough, but we don't have to go to the union, and the low-level is the low-level. The bald man ate a few more bites of meat, then wiped his hands and poured a sip of wine and said: "Little brother is not very old, someone can approve you to join the group, I guess you have something unique, I will take you back to our headquarters, just around here, go and say hello to the people in the headquarters, familiarize yourself with it, you put away this badge." ”

"Little brother, what's your name, everyone will be a family in the future, my name is He Jiu, you can call me Brother Jiu. "The scar man is not as old as the bald man, and he looks like he is in his twenties and thirties, and Shen Mu wore a mask to slightly cover his slightly childish face. It seems that the ninth brother also complements each other.

"His name is Guang Mandarin, you can just call him Uncle Guang. Ha ha. He Jiu seemed to laugh a little smugly because he was slightly younger than Guang Mandarin.

"Brother Jiu, Uncle Guang is good, my name is Mu Mirage, and it's okay to call me Xiao Mu. Shen Mu also introduced himself and looked at the two of them.

Guang Tang was also extremely happy to hear someone call him Uncle Guang, and he didn't mind this title. "Good boy, you will be your own person from now on. You should still be a student at the Academy, could it be the Yves Saint Laurent here?"

"Yes, Uncle Guang, I haven't been in school for a long time, and I want to earn some money to subsidize it, after all, I am from the countryside and I don't have much travel expenses. ”

Guang Tang heard that he was not born in a nobleman, and for some reason he had a better impression of Shen Mu, and the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became, "Xiao Mu, let's go, let's take you back to the headquarters to meet everyone." ”

He Jiu saw that Guang Tang drank the empty wine glass in three or two clicks, wiped his hands and prepared to get up, but he could only reluctantly drink the wine in the cup and prepare to get up.

The three of them came out together, and Guang Tang settled Shen Mu's account easily.

The headquarters of the Twilight Mercenary Regiment was not far from the Mercenary Guild, and it took ten minutes to walk there. On the way, the three of them had already mingled, and they actually entered the headquarters with their shoulders hooked.

The entrance to the headquarters is a large wooden door with bells. The sound of opening the door was very crisp, and when Shen Mu came in, he found that although this building was in the downtown area, it was obviously not often maintained, and it looked a little old, and some rooms upstairs were still occupied by creepers.

"Yo, Lao Jiu, Uncle Guang, you're back, you're back, you've brought the new members back so soon, hurry up and introduce them to everyone." A woman who was dressed very revealingly and had a very good figure, but who looked like she was only twenty-five or sixteen years old, sat on the sofa in the hall at the door, hugged a wine bottle, and looked at a few people with a smile and said.

Shen Mu glanced at Uncle Guang and Brother Jiu, and the two seemed to be accustomed to this, so they didn't say anything.

"Yanzi, this is Mu Mirage, our new member of the group, who met in the restaurant. Uncle Guang patted Shen Mu beside him and said.

"What happened in the restaurant?" The girl named Swallow suddenly recovered from her lazy state when she heard what attribute the restaurant seemed to trigger. "You can't just get drunk and pull someone to make up the numbers, right? Hee-hee. ”

Shen Mu is full of black lines, so you can only join if you have a good amount of wine...

"We didn't bring this man, he was already approved to join our mercenary group when we met him, we just brought him back. Uncle Guang said, while arranging for Shen Mu to sit casually, there are several sofas here, sit casually.

"Oh, there's a new person joining, welcome, welcome!" Shen Mu just sat down, and a person stood up from behind the sofa where Shen Mu was sitting, and scratched his head, "Welcome, welcome!" Then there was another voice, and another person stood up behind him... Now Shen Mu is a little incomprehensible, these people are really weird, what are they doing lying behind the sofa, they seem to stand up and take a look, but now it is obviously inappropriate.

"This bad boy is dressed as Zhou Qian, and the one next door is Fei Shu, whose name is not easy to remember, we all call him a flying squirrel. Uncle Guang continued, "This is our new member Mu Mirage, a low-level martial artist. I was still a student, and everyone took care of it. ”

"Uh... Uncle Guang, that, I'm a low-level spirit master," Shen Mu looked embarrassed, he never had a chance to say that he was a spirit person, after speaking, he raised his hand and used his magic power, and a small ball of light suddenly appeared on Shen Mu's palm.

...

The audience suddenly fell silent, until the swallow's wine bottle fell to the ground and clicked, and someone said, "Awesome, Uncle Guang, you are too awesome to recruit a light spirit." "It was the delinquent boy who spoke. "Mu Mirage, Ah Ah good brother, call me Ah Storm in the future, I will cover you in the group. ”

"Ahh Has everyone else in the group gone out to do the mission?" Shen Mu felt that this bad boy was weird, and wanted to change the topic for the time being.

"The others, oh, the head of the regiment recently took on a killing mission, and he is not here, the rest of them are here. Ah Bang seemed to like to talk very much, and said in front of everyone. "By the way, Mu Mirage, why are you bringing a mask? I'll take it off for you. After speaking, he was going to pull Shen Mu's mask.

Shen Mu was shocked, he didn't want to expose his appearance, then sooner or later he would be recognized by others that he would be vindictive and magical, and it would be bad at that time. Seeing that Ah Bang was about to come to find his mask, he directly pressed the mask with his left hand, and said, "I was born with a weak constitution and need to wear a mask, don't mind." ”

Others don't think so, after all, the spirit man's physique is relatively weak, this is a recognized fact.

Shen Mu looked at it and covered it up, and also came back to his senses from this little episode, thinking of what Ah Bang said earlier, the few people present except for the head of the regiment were all of them. Again, there are black lines, is this the strength of an A-class mercenary group? But how did he hear that the average A-level mercenary group has at least nearly fifty people, and the large ones can reach nearly a hundred people, and the S-class mercenary group can reach hundreds of people.

Uncle Guang seemed to see what Shen Mu was thinking, and said directly: " In fact, in the past, the scale of our Twilight Mercenary Group was still very large, and there were fifty people at most, and then after the disappearance of the former head of the group, our group inexplicably received the suppression of the Holy Flame Mercenary Group, and the elite of the group either surrendered to the Holy Flame, or were forced to leave to other mercenary groups, seeing that the Twilight Snow Mercenary Group was about to collapse, but we couldn't do anything, and we were too few to do the task to get the contribution degree that allowed us to maintain it in the A-level mercenary group, but fortunately, at the last moment, our head broke through to the realm of Wuzun and took us to do the A-level bounty task, so we barely stayed in this position。 But the A-class mission is too dangerous after all, and our brothers have been lost one after another in the mission. The head of the regiment couldn't bear to see the death and injury of her brothers again, until now she completed the bounty task alone, and every time she came back, she was scarred. But he always comforted us and said that the former head of the regiment would come back. ”

Shen Mu admired this Lin Xue from the bottom of his heart. He knows what happened, Twilight is really dead and will never come back. And how long can this woman last?
