Chapter 69: Awakening

The morning breeze blew gently across the meadow, rolling up a few petals and flying.

Lilian ran over angrily and stepped the petals into the mud, and Yang Hao reluctantly walked out of the corner.

He said to himself, "Is it really that I'm thinking too much?" ”

All the evidence showed that Yang Hao's suspicions about Isabella were unfounded, and he wavered.

Yang Hao's heart was very confused, and he couldn't tell what was true and what was false.

So he decided to do a task to calm down.

To do the task and find the gale, Yang Hao subconsciously contacted him, and the two agreed to meet in the mercenary union.

After meeting, Dafeng didn't ask about Yang Hao's sudden departure, man, there are always a few days a month.

As the saying goes, sexual prosperity leads to disaster, and it is cut to eternal rule.

Not much to say. The two of them are ready to claim the mission.

After the Purple Worm battle and several large and small camp battles, the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group not only became famous in Baishi Town, but also upgraded to a level 4 mercenary group.

One of the privileges that the Level 4 mercenary group has is that they do not have to queue up outside to receive tasks, but have a special private room for one-on-one service, and may also receive some designated tasks.

Wealthy nobles and wealthy businessmen may come to the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group to accept the mission, and the rewards for these missions will be very rich, which is one of the benefits of high prestige.

It was the hostess they were familiar with who received Yang Hao and the others, and she seemed to have been promoted.

Without being polite, Yang Hao said bluntly: "Is there a designated task?" ”

The quantity and quality of the assigned tasks completed are both measures of the strength of the mercenary group, and it is necessary to clear them regularly.

"Yes, yes, but it can be more troublesome." The hostess remembered a tricky task, to be honest, she didn't want Yang Hao to accept them, because her honor and disgrace had been tied to the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group, and she was unwilling to take risks.

"Let's take a look first!" Gale was eager to try, and there was no word fear in his dictionary, not to mention that there were still thighs here, and of course the task had to be the most difficult.

"Okay." The hostess naturally could not go against the wishes of the two, and turned around and took out a new roll of parchment from the file.

Villagers who have lost their minds

Mission requirements: The management of the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group, up to 2 people, and the time limit is 3 days (after 3 days, it will not be the designated task).

Mission Description: Blacktip fishmen have been very active lately, and the village of Farya, located in the southernmost part of White Rock Town, has borne the brunt of the harassment of the fishmen. Two days earlier, Gary, a pearl diver, had gone mad and babbled about a terrible monster that wanted to eat the whole village, and that night Gary hanged himself. The villagers were terrified and unwilling to work.

Jackson, the old nobleman who rules the village, is dissatisfied with this, but he can't force the frightened villagers to come to their senses, and his property is losing every moment.

Reward: Farya Village's Specialty Trade Rights.

"A specialty of the village of Farya? What are they? Yang Hao asked, pointing to the reward column.

"It's all seafood, and the most precious thing is pearls." The hostess replied.

"There are pearls! He's generous enough! Gale was surprised.

"Hehe, Lokta, you're talking about the opposite, Jackson is a well-known miser. The reason why he is willing to give you the right to trade is because his strength is weak, and he does not have a few private troops under his command, so he cannot form a caravan at all. Even if you don't complete the task, he will come to the door himself in a few days to talk about cooperation. ”

The hostess still tried to prevent Yang Hao and the others from taking on the task, which could not be solved by force alone.

"Why? Jackson's territory produces pearls, so he should be very wealthy, and he can't afford to raise a few private troops. ”

Yang Hao thinks that no matter how stingy he is, he should always be willing to spend money on his life.

"There used to be, but five days ago, the Jackson family caravan was wiped out on the Shi'an Plains, and all the belongings were lost. I heard that this time the running merchant Jackson has been planning for a long time, and almost all of his net worth has been suppressed, but now the chicken is flying and the eggs are beating. ”

The hostess stayed in the hall of the mercenary union all day and was very well informed.

"Hey, this old boy is good enough, he's all poor, and he still wants to pit us." Dafeng laughed.

Yang Hao thinks that this Jackson is a powerful person, scheming and courageous, but his luck is not very good.

"Who robbed the caravan?"

"The daggers and footprints of the gnolls were found at the scene, they should have been done by the gnolls, and some people speculated that the fugitive Hogg personally took action, after all, the strength of the caravan is not weak."

Yang Hao thought to himself: This Hogg has really become a disaster.

In the end, Yang Hao decided to accept this task, in fact, this task is not difficult, as long as you find the right method, people with weak strength can also complete it.

If the task is done by someone else, won't the trade rights fly?

Just as the two stepped out of the door, the waitress muttered in a low voice: "It's really strange lately, the jackals have started to eat vegetarians, and people have started to have nothing to do." ”

Yang Hao's hearing is very good, and he clearly takes the words of the waitress into his ears.

He walked out of the door for a moment, a hint of murder flashed in his eyes, and then he covered it up, pretending to be casual and continuing to walk, and no one noticed his abnormality.

Yang Hao secretly said in his heart: No matter who is fooling me, he will definitely make him pay!

Farya Village

In contrast to other nobles who built their mansions in White Stone, the Jackson family's mansion was in their domain.

Jackson's estate was in the center of the village, and Yang Hao decided to visit him first and ask about some information.

The Jackson family has ruled the village of Falla since the establishment of White Stone, and they have absolute power here, and every plant and tree here, including the villagers, is their property.

When Yang Hao saw this old nobleman for the first time, he felt that his eyes seemed to be full of light, full of wisdom and cunning, and his mental state was also very good, not like an old man in his 50s.

"Lord Jackson, I'm Geralt, the leader of the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Regiment, and I'm here to solve your troubles."

Yang Hao said respectfully, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is impossible for a noble family to be devastated by a failure to run a business, so it is still necessary to give due respect.

"Haha, young people don't rush first, it's time for lunch, let's talk while eating."

Jackson did not urge Yang Hao and Gale to act immediately, but took the initiative to delay time, which was completely different from the information given on the parchment roll.

At this time, shouldn't they burn their eyebrows?

The lunch was purely Western-style and very hearty, but Yang Hao was not used to eating it, so he just tasted it and took the initiative to ask about the situation in Jackson's village, he was not as idle as this old man.

"Mr. Lord, I wonder if you know anything about the monsters around the village?"

Yang Hao thought that since it was a riot caused by monsters, it would be okay to clean up the area around the village.

"Haha, young warrior, what do you know about Farya?"

Jackson didn't answer Yang Hao's question, but asked rhetorically.

Yang Hao has always been active in Baishi Town, and he knows little about the surrounding villages, so he shook his head and said he didn't know.

"The lords of the villages near White Rock are all descendants of the warriors who fought with the old Baron Montenard. When our Jackson family founded Farya, it was not deserted, but a group of natives who called themselves the Inns.

While other families have built their villages out of wasteland, we have built our villages on the barracks built by the natives, which gives the family some advantages.

Because these natives were few in number, only a few dozen, my father thought they could not pose any threat, so he kindly accepted them and enlightened them, and now these Indians seem almost like us.

Because my time is spent mainly on the communication between the nobles and the cultivation of heirs. So I was very lax in my management of the people in the village, and as long as they could pay their taxes and pay a sufficient number of pearls on time at the end of the month, I would not interfere too much. In fact, they put me at ease.

But since the accident of the family's caravan, the atmosphere in the village has been a little wrong. When I checked my household register, I was surprised to find that the number of villagers with indigenous ancestry was already a quarter of the village's population (100 people).

It's ridiculous that no one would want to marry an indigenous person.

I looked further and found that the average age of people of Aboriginal descent was only 30 years old. ”

Speaking of this, Jackson stopped, believing that Yang Hao had understood what he meant.

Yang Hao could hear that the old nobleman suspected that the recent commotion was caused by the Indics.

"Are the dead pearl divers the Indices?" Yang Hao asked.

"No, he's an ordinary villager." Jackson took a sip of tea.

"What about the relationship between ordinary villagers and the Indians?" Yang Hao continued to ask.

"I don't know, as I said, I only care about whether the villagers can complete their tasks. You can find out for yourselves. ”

Jackson said indifferently, just like the other nobles Yang Hao had seen before.

"Was your father willing to keep these Indians only because of kindness?"

Gale could not hear a trace of mercy to the people in Jackson's words, only pure benefit.

So he thinks there's a deeper reason for that.

"Hehe, there's nothing to hide, the Inds have dedicated their treasures to our family, and we promise to protect them, it's as simple as that."

Jackson's face remained unchanged, and in his opinion, this was a normal exchange of interests, which was fair.

Yang Hao: They have nothing to say about it.

Judging from the existing evidence, the Inns are indeed very suspicious, and Yang Hao decided to start understanding the Inds from that treasure.

"Mr. Lord, shall we have the privilege of witnessing the supreme treasure of which you speak?"

"Of course, every guest who visits, can visit, that's the glory of the Jackson family."

Jackson immediately stood up and motioned for the two to come with him.

Yang Hao and Dafeng were full of curiosity about what Jackson said about the treasure, and they did not hesitate to follow him.

The Jackson family's estate was large, and after turning several corners, the two came to a splendid hall.
