This world is not safe.

Not to mention that the erosion of the chaotic region on the land of order has never stopped, just say that those hard-hit areas where demonic beasts are rampant are enough to compose countless tragic poems.

Even if it is a land of order and a city-state, the strife between people has not stopped for a moment.

The northern border of the Kingdom of Tria, even now many years after the end of the Northern Expedition, does not mean that it is really safe.

The attitude of the local lords towards the rule of their own territory is also very easy to breed problems. Especially those lords who don't know how to govern their territory at all, it is easier to cause the lords to break away from the protection of the lord and become robbers and bandits who fall into the grass.

But it is precisely thanks to the above reasons that the Adventurer's Guild and the Mercenary Guild also have a foothold in their existence.

In particular, the Mercenary Guild is an industry that spreads all over the world.

Through the intermediary organization of the Mercenary Guild, the mercenaries can learn the basic information and risk assessment of the relevant missions, so as to avoid them from receiving dangerous missions beyond their ability due to their own lack of strength. The entrusting party can also use the commission of the mercenary guild to avoid problems such as the mercenary not completing the task after receiving the bounty, or temporarily extorting a price increase.

Although there are still some mercenaries who are occasionally bold, in this case, they are often punished by the mercenary guild, and even leave a personal stain - if a mercenary group appears to be tainted, even all mercenaries who join the mercenary group will be labeled with this stain. Because not only the mercenary group picks people, but even the mercenaries are also very cautious when choosing a mercenary group.

In the past, here in the Mercenary Guild of Acala City, only three mercenary groups were truly convincing.

The first is naturally the Rose Mercenary Regiment of Tedmis, who take the elite development route.

And the second one is not the Spear of Freedom, one of the two gold-level mercenary groups of the Akara City Mercenary Guild, but the Storm Mercenary Group that successfully ranked among the top ten mercenary groups of the Akara City Mercenary Guild in the past.

But with the disastrous defeat of the Storm Mercenary Group four months ago, and the departure of its once supposedly strongest swordsman, the mercenary group has completely declined.

Recently, however, the Storm Mercenary Regiment, a group that has been in turmoil again, has once again been in the news in Akara City.

"Hey, did you hear that?"

In the hall of the Mercenary Guild, there was a noisy noise from the bustling crowd. But this voice can still overpower this sound tide, making the entire noisy hall cold.

"Yo, isn't this a sand wolf? When did you come back. Some acquaintances saw the person who spoke, so they also opened their mouths to say hello, "If you have any news, just tell me, most of the people here today have just returned from completing their tasks, so don't sell it." ”

"The Storm Mercenary Regiment has taken over the mission of Warcraft Canyon." The middle-aged man known as the sand wolf suddenly said with a smile.

After a brief silence, the entire Mercenary Guild Hall became even more noisy.

"Warcraft Canyon? It can't be the one on the silver bulletin list, right? ”

"Storm Mercenaries? Didn't they fail in that previous gold-level mission? In the end, it seems that it was Tedmis's side who cleaned up the aftermath for them. ”

"Wow, I thought the sand wolf was joking, this mission was really taken. …… They're crazy. ”

"Who knows, maybe they want to go crazy at the end, anyway, with their situation, it's almost time to disband."

There was a lot of talk, but apparently no one was optimistic about the Storm Mercenary Group.

However, some people quickly reacted: "They haven't disbanded yet? Last month's silver mission they completed? ”

"Hey, you don't know that, people are lucky." The voice of the sand wolf was a little weird, "The Storm Mercenary Group has recruited a mercenary, it should be a guard or knight who left from a down-and-out nobleman, a mercenary who just registered last month, and a daughter." ”

"Even if you recruit a new person to join, it won't reverse the crisis of the Storm Mercenary Group on the verge of disbandment, right? Or is this person so strong? ”

"I guess there have to be candidates." This time it wasn't the sand wolf, but another mercenary who seemed to know the situation spoke, "He interrupted Vail's [Arc Slash] with [Powerful Slash], and also forced Vail to admit it. ”

"Shhh

"This can't be, the power of [Arc Slash] is obviously better than ......"

"People say that the power of combat skills does not represent everything, and fighting also requires the use of brains. …… A few days ago, the caravan guarded by Bibbs encountered a bandit who had mastered the battle skills on the road, and he also used the [Powerful Slash] to break through the opponent's [Arc Slash], and then took this opportunity to kill the bandit leader. The mercenary continued, "It turns out that it is indeed possible for [Arc Slash] to be interrupted by [Powerful Slash]. …… And Old John is also inspired by Mr. Levy, and now he has broken through to master-level strength, and has also mastered the [Powerful Slash]. ”

This time, everyone was a little dumbfounded.

Old John is here, and almost no one doesn't know him.

He was already in his forties, and he was only a professional-level mercenary, and almost everyone thought that he had no future. But just recently, he actually broke through to the strength of a master, and also mastered the [Powerful Slash] combat skill, and now he can be said to be a guest of several mercenary groups. After all, even if these reasons are aside, Old John has been a mercenary for more than 20 years, and his experience is very rich.

"Sand wolf, I know that you have some conflicts with the Storm Mercenary Group, but you better say a few words, a small half of the people here in Akara City have benefited from Mr. Levy's words, and everyone owes him a favor." The mercenary looked at the sand wolf, and then spoke, "Because of his words, as far as I know, at least four people, including Old John, have broken through to the master level, so you can do it yourself." ”

"I know, I know." The sand wolf said rather unhappily, "That's why I said that the Storm Mercenary Group is lucky." ”

"Luck is also one of the strengths of our mercenaries." Someone snorted coldly, obviously already a little dissatisfied with the words of the sand wolf.

The sand wolf shrugged his shoulders and didn't care about the other party's attitude: "I know the rules, I have a little conflict with the Storm Mercenary Group, but it's not an unsolvable grudge." As long as that gentleman is still in the Storm Mercenary Regiment, I'm sure I'm not going to be bored. ”

The implication is that once Su Yan is no longer in the Storm Mercenary Group, then he may immediately go to trouble the Storm Mercenary Group.

This time, however, no one said anything.

After all, those who benefited from Su Yan's hints and reminders only owed Su Yan a favor, and this favor was not from the Storm Mercenary Group. So if Su Yan is no longer in the Storm Mercenary Group, then others will naturally not help the Storm Mercenary Group.

"So, the Storm Mercenary Regiment took that mission, but why hasn't it set off yet? I think I've seen them before. ”

"The Storm Mercenary Regiment took that mission, but Mr. Levy was the only one who went on the mission." The sand wolf said in a weird way again, "Hey." It's not for me to say, even if that person's strength really has a candidate, will he still be able to come back from Warcraft Canyon? A newcomer is a newcomer, and the world of mercenaries is not so easy to mix. ”

Many people stared at the sand wolf indifferently, but no one said anything.

Obviously, they also knew about this situation, and they were also not optimistic about Su Yan going to this task alone.

What kind of place is Warcraft Canyon, many of them don't know, after all, they haven't seen it with their own eyes. But they knew that because of this mission, more than fifty mercenaries had lost their news forever, and even two mercenary groups were disbanded because of this. Moreover, the impression that Warcraft Canyon brought to the mercenaries of the Mercenary Guild of Akara City was by no means more than that, they did not forget the results of the previous joint exploration of the Adventurer Guild and the Mercenary Guild.

To no avail.

All this shows the danger of Warcraft Canyon.

However, at this moment, the atmosphere that was already a little cold because of the words of the sand wolf suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Because the person he was talking about before, he suddenly appeared at the gate of the mercenary guild at this time.

As soon as he stepped into the Mercenary Guild, Su Yan already clearly felt that the atmosphere here was a little strange.

Even when he walked to the mercenary guild's external window to handle various businesses, the person in charge looked at him at Twilight rather strangely.

However, Su Yan didn't take it to heart, he just said, "Hello, I'm here to submit a task." ”

As he spoke, he placed a box in his hand on the counter, along with the parchment paper with the bounty for the task.

"Good...... Okay, wait a minute. The staff member's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he didn't seem to expect Su Yan to really be able to complete this task, "I need to take it to the communication room and contact the client to confirm." ”

"Okay." Su Yan, who had already known about this step, had no opinion.

Then the staff quickly left.

Although the mercenaries in the hall resumed their whispering voices, they could clearly be heard that these people were deliberately lowering their voices, as if they were expecting something. This strange change in atmosphere, not to mention that Anna could clearly detect it, even Su Yan realized that the situation seemed to be a little strange.

But since he didn't know what was going on, he just glanced at the guild hall suspiciously.

It wasn't long before the staff member returned.

But looking at the shock on his face that had not subsided, the mercenaries in the hall suddenly became in an uproar. Because, they already knew the answer they wanted: if before this, they all felt that Su Yan was likely to fail the mission and casually found a substitute to disguise it, then when the person in charge of the Mercenary Guild came back from the communication room, they knew that this possibility would never exist.

Because of the urgent or special task, the client will leave a quick contact method, so that when the commission is completed, it can be confirmed as soon as possible.

There is no way to go wrong with this kind of situation, which is confirmed by the client himself. Even if something really goes wrong later, the consequences of the matter and all the losses will be borne by the client, and there will be no connection with the mercenary guild and the mercenary who took the task.

Su Yan's ability to accomplish this task was indeed incredible in their eyes.

But not unacceptable.

After all, maybe the other party is really strong enough, and the luck is good enough, so he successfully completed this task.

What really shocked them was how many days Su Yan had been gone?

Twenty days?

Having completed this task, no one can imagine what kind of situation this is.

"That's right." After receiving the three money bags handed over by the staff of the Mercenary Guild, Su Yan spoke, "Because of chance, I joined forces with others to complete another task. But I didn't take this task beforehand, so can I submit it now? ”

"Oh? Oh! Oh! Ok Ok. The staff member paused for a moment, and then quickly nodded and said, "But I need you to describe what happened, and I will register here." Also, is the person you did with present with you? You also need to register their situation here, and then the reward for the completion of the commission will be distributed by you, and our mercenary guild is not responsible for the rest of the matter. ”

"Okay, I got it." Su Yan nodded, "I have already brought the people, they are them." ”

At this time, everyone noticed that the five people with hooded cloaks who were with Su Yan were together.

Immediately, many people began to wonder about the identities of these people.

"By the way, I wonder what the other commission you completed was?"

"An Exploration of the Cause of the Formation of the Fog in Warcraft Canyon."

"Okay, Fog of Warcraft Canyon ......"

The staff member who was immersed in recording was repeating Su Yan's words while writing the contents. But soon, his movements were abrupt, and then he looked up, and this time his face was not shocked and incredulous, but utterly terrifying.

Even the surrounding mercenaries looked at Su Yan with a stunned expression.

But in the next moment, the entire guild hall erupted in an exclamation that seemed like chaos.

Because, the five elves from the Council of Elders have already lifted their hoods.
