Chapter 114: Surprise
A mercenary group was established, and all members automatically became first-class mercenaries. For lone wolves without a team, the level of mercenaries represents ability and credit, and it is also one of the main indicators of the guild's recruitment.
Jestis is a fourth-level mercenary, Norman is a fifth-level, and the rest are all unified. Jestis's resume is obviously deeper than Norman's, but his nosy nature has always constrained him, and he is destined to have some tasks in vain. And the ubiquitous shadow killer, the mission success rate is as high as 90%, this alone is already amazing, you know, any high-reward mission is doomed to high risk.
The staff was really well served and gave away a free flag as a congratulatory gift to the boring mercenary group that owns the guild station. It's just that when Sophie unfolded the flag with the middle finger in the middle of the golden shield on a red background, she wanted to die, how ridiculous is this? Needless to say, the Boring Mercenary Group has two potential opponents at the moment, the Skeleton Mercenary Group and the Templar Mercenary Group, and this banner alone looks like a blood-pumping banner, which has an obvious group ridicule effect, but she still doesn't dare to explain the true meaning of this gesture to everyone, she is afraid of being beaten to death.
The station, worthy of the station, when the group came to the station, there was a feeling of pie falling from the sky, but it was just a discus.
Compared to the high-walled, heavily guarded guild quarters around it, a lonely earthen city sits pathetically atop a traffic artery. To the north is the towering Demon Beast Mountain Range, and in front of Tucheng is a large river tens of meters wide, which collapses in front of Tucheng. The great river flows from west to east, and it is here that it recesses in the direction of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and this place within a radius of several miles is the station where 80,000 gold coins are exchanged.
"Sure enough, the scenery is beautiful, the transportation is convenient, and it is located on the transportation hub." Sophia shook her can head and nodded in approval, because at the north gate of the station, there was a broken pontoon bridge that connected to the opposite bank.
Jestis and Norman looked at each other and swallowed in unison.
Lisa frowned and looked at the huge clearing on the other side that seemed to be galloping out of ten thousand horses, and a bad premonition welled up in her heart.
"Sophie." Christina's face was a little pale, and she pointed to the other side and said, "I feel that the elemental aura there is chaotic, and there seems to be a lingering bloody aura. ”
"Ouch, it's not bad, there's a city wall."
Looking at Sophie, who was still interested in admiring the broken low earthen city wall, Jestis finally couldn't help it and shouted: "Eighty thousand gold coins, but in exchange for death!" ”
"How?" Sophie blinked her big innocent eyes.
"Here, if it is in normal times, it can be regarded as a transportation hub, and it is the first stop for adventurers to go to the Warcraft Mountain Range. See, all the defensive facilities of the Great Guild are built along the river, using the city walls and rivers to resist the invasion of demonic beasts. Only this station, alone out, and facing the exit of this Demon Beast Mountain Range, if the beast tide hits, it will bear the brunt. I still wonder how it is possible to have an empty station in the Mercenary Empire, but now I know that this is the Guild Leader's sale of the station on the eve of the beast tide. Guilds without a station can still be broken into pieces, existing in the form of multiple mercenary groups, and when the beast tide passes, the guild can be established again. But if there is a guild with a station, it must take on the task of defense, which is the responsibility of the guild. ”
"We're not a guild, so what's the hurry." Sophie apparently didn't take it seriously.
Jestis was stunned for a moment and said: "That's the thing, but the mercenary empire has a rule, that is, when foreign enemies invade, each guild will be divided into a defensive area according to its own strength, if there is a guild defeated or escaped, then the guild that has the ability to assist in the defense will own this station." This is the highest regulation, and it is aimed at the guild station, and the mercenary group is not exempt from liability. ”
"Then don't you just run away?"
Sophia straightened her helmet in confusion and asked, "Sophie, if you don't run away, do we have the ability to resist the beast tide head-on?" ”
Sophie gave him a disdainful look and said, "Don't measure my wisdom by your squeezed and deformed breasts. ”
"What do you mean?" Sophia was confused.
Christina patted her on the shoulder sympathetically and said, "With your IQ, it's hard to understand, don't struggle." ”
At the corner of the river, there are several square kilometers of open space, but only in the center, there is a low earth wall standing in all directions of this earthen city, and there are two large collapse positions in the south and north, which can be regarded as the city gate. Although it looks dilapidated on the outside, inside the earth city, it really surprised Sophie. The buildings in the city are a little dilapidated, but at least the buildings are ready-made, so they don't have to worry about building them. The only fly in the ointment is that the building is almost empty, and there are only a few merchants, who are sorting out the goods, and it seems that they are also planning to retreat.
Suddenly, a clanging sound of chopping meat came into everyone's ears, and everyone turned their heads to see that opposite the desolate scene everywhere was a big man who was chopping meat behind a stall.
Seeing a leg of mutton shaved to the bone by a few knives from the big man, Sophie's eyes suddenly lit up.
Lisa swept the golden sea back, walked slowly to the big man, and asked, "This uncle, may I ask ......?"
Syllable! The heavy kitchen knife slashed into the meat mound, and the big man stared at Lisa intently, his voice had an irrepressible excitement, and he said in a trembling voice: "Rose, is it really you?" I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and your appearance hasn't changed at all. ”
Nani? Not only were the people behind Lisa confused, but even Lisa herself was confused.
"Ahem, uncle, you recognized the wrong person, I don't know any roses."
"Oh, too, I'm confused, how can Rose still be so young? Whose little girl is this, she looks so cute, come, uncle hug. After speaking, the big man enthusiastically opened his arms and walked out from behind the stall.
Lisa, who has seen a big scene, suddenly retreated in a panic like a frightened rabbit.
"Lewd, so obscene!" Before Jestis, who has always prided himself on justice, could attack, Sophia rushed up with an angry face, pointed at the big man's nose and said angrily: "Do you know who she is? ”
I saw that the big man's face suddenly became extremely serious, he took a step forward, walked into Sophia, stretched out his greasy hand, pressed it on Sophia's breastplate, and said righteously: "Believe me, I know that she is a believer in the light and the messenger of the future goddess in the world." ”
Sophia couldn't help but be stunned and said in surprise: "How do you know? ”
"Trust me, I can feel it."
In order to prove this, the big man's hand pressed the cuirass again.
