15. Mercenary Guild
Su Yan has proved his strength with facts.
Even, in his words just now, a small hint trap was arranged.
If it weren't for the scruples that killing someone in public might cause a lot of trouble, Su Yan would not have shown mercy to his subordinates just now, but would have chosen to kill Fan Er on the spot.
The whispers around made the people of the Dark Hug Mercenary Group feel very embarrassed.
A group of them came over in a mighty way, just to use their momentum to directly subdue Su Yan, and when the time comes, whether it is to force out Pader's whereabouts, or let Su Yan join their Dark Support Mercenary Group, it is naturally a matter for them to decide. Even, once Su Yan is subdued, and Su Yan does not show a cooperative attitude, then they can even find an opportunity to directly snatch Anna and sell it to the hands of the degenerate.
Even though most of the mercenaries in Acala City knew the virtues of the Dark Embrace bandits, they didn't dare to do it too blatantly under the pressure of the sheriff.
But the development route of the script is different from what they imagined.
Reality has given the Dark Embrace mercenaries a slap in the face.
It directly stunned all of them.
Vail, actually lost?
"Do you have anything else to say?" Su Yan looked at Fan Er and the members of the Dark Embrace Mercenary Group behind him, and asked.
The whispers around have begun to turn into a slightly noisy chatter.
Not even far away, the footsteps of a sheriff could be heard.
"Let's go." Fan Er stared at Su Yan with red eyes, and finally said something in a deep voice, then turned his head and left.
He didn't drop any cruel words, nor did he make any other indications, and seemed to admit it neatly.
But Su Yan's face became gloomy.
In the last look in Van Er's eyes just now, what Su Yan saw was an undisguised naked killing intent, and even this killing intent was not only aimed at himself, but also included Anna who was held in his arms. If it were a different place, Su Yan believed that Van would definitely not hesitate to order the entire Dark Hug Mercenary Group to attack him together, and even attack Anna at the same time.
But in the city of Akara, Vail finally chose to swallow his anger.
That's what really scarred about Vail.
Su Yan's heart made a decision in an instant.
For Vail, he can not care, or even ignore the existence of the other party, because he knows very well that the other party cannot cause him any damage. But if the other party hits Anna with his idea, then Su Yan will definitely not let this danger sprout.
This skirmish, with the retreat of the Dark Embrace Mercenary Group, naturally cannot continue.
The onlookers also dispersed before the guards of the security station arrived, because they did not cause any financial losses to the surrounding shops, so Su Yan naturally would not be embarrassed by the people of the security station. Especially when they heard that Su Yan had just defeated Vail, who was in the top ten of the Mercenary Guild's silver rank, they naturally wouldn't choose to have any conflict with Su Yan.
After leaving the restaurant, Su Yan took Anna and walked towards the Mercenary Guild again.
He is a resolute man of action, and since he has already made the decision to brush up the rank ranking in the Mercenary Guild in Akara City first, he naturally won't waste time.
……
"I feel that I am fully capable of this task."
In front of the counter, Su Yan had just been ruthlessly rejected by a male staff member of a mercenary guild.
"I'm sorry sir, it's not that you don't have enough strength, but your current rating doesn't even reach the Black Iron, and it's impossible for us to let you accept this silver-level contract." The staff member didn't even raise his head, let alone look at Su Yan squarely, he lowered his head and didn't know what he was busy with, he just simply glanced at Su Yan's mercenary nameplate and the mission contract that he had removed, and then he looked like he was doing business.
"But I think this silver mission is very simple." Su Yan still tried to argue with reason.
He'd been browsing around the mission notice area for a while.
Originally, Su Yan was still worried about what to do if he couldn't read the words. But fortunately, although many of Levi's memories of that unlucky ghost have become incomplete, the memory of the text is still fully preserved, so the situation that worries Su Yan does not appear.
In the mission announcement area, more than 90% of the tasks on the notice board that most mercenaries rely on to survive are escort missions from the Merchant Guild.
The starting station is Akara City, and the destinations are varied, everywhere, basically going north, and more than half of them are going to North Winter City.
As for the high bounty missions, the rewards of most of the black iron level tasks are not as good as escorting the caravan, and the only advantage is that they are basically not far from Akara City, and the tasks can be completed in two or three days, so it is more appropriate to choose these tasks if you don't want to go far. As for the bronze level, the general income is similar to that of escorting caravans, but it is more troublesome, they are all tasks that need to go far away, and the completion of tasks is relatively random.
For example, one of the missions is to search for a monster called the Killer Rabbit around the city of Acala and kill it.
The strength of the Killer Rabbit is not strong, only about level fifteen, but the problem is that this thing can be run by thieves, and thieves can hide, and it may take a lot of time just to search for its traces. And if you don't prepare for an ambush in advance, you will often choose to run away when the killer rabbit finds that the opponent cannot be defeated.
What Su Yan dislikes the most is this kind of lucky task.
That's why he finally picked a silver-level contract mission.
Unexpectedly, the Mercenary Guild has a hard and fast requirement in this regard: low-level mercenaries are not allowed to accept high-level mercenary tasks.
Su Yan felt that this setting was very inhumane.
"My dad is amazing!" Anne pouted and let out a small protest.
When the staff member heard Anna's crisp voice, he looked up, and seemed to be a little surprised by Anna's appearance, and the staff member's attitude was a little better, but he opened his mouth to explain: "The chickpeus is very dangerous, and it is not something that a newcomer like you can solve." The job of a mercenary is not that simple, it does not mean that you are strong enough to solve all problems, I suggest you better hone yourself first. ”
The last sentence was said by this staff member to Su Yan.
Looking at the other party's earnest and concerned looks, Su Yan said that he was helpless.
Of course, he knew what the monster was, and he killed at least a thousand of them in "Eternity". He was just a little surprised that the world could see a monster like the Hawkpea, so he wanted to know if this was the same name for the two monsters, or if it was really the kind of monster in "Eternity".
Of course, Su Yan wanted to improve his mercenary rank as soon as possible and make some money by the way.
"So, I would like to ask, how can I move up my mercenary rank as soon as possible?" Su Yan asked.
"You are now a registered mercenary, and you don't have any rank yet, at least you need to complete more than five different types of ordinary tasks to prove that you have adapted to the life of a mercenary before you can start accepting the black iron level bounty tasks." This time, this staff member didn't look like he was ignoring it, Su Yan estimated that the other party was looking at Anna's face, so he opened his mouth to explain, "Only after completing ten Black Iron Level Missions and then passing our guild's internal evaluation, can you become a Black Iron Level mercenary." ”
"And what about the Bronze Rank?"
The staff member looked at Su Yan for a while, and said in a serious tone: "Young man, don't be too ambitious, the most important thing for you now is to adapt to the life of a mercenary first." As for the bronze rank, you will know when you reach the black iron rank. ”
The corners of Su Yan's mouth twitched, and he had an urge to strangle the other party.
This staff member does not appear to be in his or her twentieth year, and his rank is fourth, and in addition to the fixed racial rank of the first level, the other three are also the third level of the clerk. If I remember correctly, Su Yan remembered that this profession was a profession with no combat ability, so he could only read, write, and write.
"Is there any way to move up the ranks quickly?" Suppressing the urge to strangle the other party in his heart, Su Yan asked again.
The contracts of the mercenary guild are divided into many different types: for example, errands for delivering letters, searching for missing kittens and dogs, escorts and travels for escort work, patrolling and assisting the security of the security office, and exploring to check the security of the area.
The difficulty of the task is different, and the reward is naturally different if the task difficulty is low.
But for people like Su Yan, the issue of rewards is secondary, and the most important thing is cost performance.
Most errand tasks such as delivering letters are only one or two silver coins, but they often take a day or two, and sometimes three to four days, after all, they do not send letters from the east to the west of Acala, but from Acala to another village in the county of Endri.
In terms of cost performance, if the distance is a little farther, then the average day is fifty copper coins, deducting the cost of dry food that needs to be brought, I am afraid that there are not even twenty copper coins.
And for tasks such as finding kittens and dogs, the rewards offered are not low, they are all more than five silver coins, and the highest is even one gold coin. But the devil only knows where these little guys are going, and no one can predict how many days this kind of task will take, so basically no mercenary will do this kind of task except for those rookie mercenaries with very low strength.
If you want to say that the most cost-effective, in fact, it is not the task of escort and travel.
The expedition of the escort caravan not only included three meals, but also earned an average of one silver coin per day. As for the escort work to protect others, it is as high as two silver coins per day, but compared to the long-distance mission of escorting the caravan, the contract of the escort work not only requires a test of strength, but also the minimum contract work days are basically thirty days.
Although Su Yan decided to stay in Acala City for a while, he didn't want to stay here for that long.
You must know that even if he completes five different types of tasks according to the rules of the Mercenary Guild, there are still ten Black Iron level tasks to complete before he can become a Black Iron rank mercenary. And his goal is to at least become a bronze-rank mercenary, and if you are a rookie mercenary to the black iron rank, you have to complete so many tasks, so from the black iron rank to the bronze rank, I am afraid you need to complete more tasks.
"What do you think a mercenary is? Still want to move up the ranks quickly? The staff member already had a dissatisfied expression on his face, "No, no." ”
"Actually, there is."
