025. Prepare to go
Six days later, in the morning, Adam arrived early at the training ground where the last instance was identified, and today was the official day of the army to exterminate the goblins. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the sky was only slightly bright, the training ground was already crowded with adventurers from different adventure groups. Among them the most prevalent professions were warriors, thieves and archers.
Warriors, naturally, do not need to be explained, they are the profession with the largest number of people. Although the thief profession is not good at frontal attacks, it is very professional in information gathering, stealth assassination, and intelligence detection.
The Archer is the only ranged class in the Power class that uses the bow to attack. Well-equipped archers may also possess magic arrows, which are not to be underestimated.
In addition to these three classes, there is also a class knight for nobles in the strength class.
It's not that the knight profession can only be chosen by nobles, but because the cost of training and equipping a knight is an astronomical amount, almost comparable to the high cost of a mage, and it is definitely not something that a civilian family can afford.
At this time, there were also about twenty knights on the training ground, both men and women, wearing very beautiful armor and holding a long sword in their hands, and the members of the adventure group under their command looked full of energy.
Adam guessed that they were the children of the middle and upper echelons of Falcon City, and that the adventuring party following them should have recruited them themselves, hoping to get a good performance in this operation and get a territory.
Mages like Adam are even more impressive on the training ground. There is no way around it, no matter where the profession of mage is destined to be the focus. There were only ten mages in the entire training ground, and one of them was the white mage that Adam had seen on the day of the strength appraisal.
No matter who you are, you can easily tell the ten mages on the training ground, the magic robes, the magic wands, and the energetic warriors under your command all look so distinct.
In particular, the 24 militiamen who followed behind Adam were full of spirits, and the uniform leather armor and tridents made them look full of morale. Adam was well known to many adventurers on the day of the strength evaluation, and after seeing Adam himself, many adventurers were talking about Adam and his Holy Light spell in a low voice.
Of course, there were also people who were talking about the trident in the hands of the militia and the mixed up of the militia with Aras and Janet.
Originally, in Adam's plan, he became part of the mercenaries to exterminate the goblins with only the militia and Arras, but later at the behest of Arras, Janet also became a member of the team.
So at the end of the militia, there are two more very obvious adventurers, Arras and Janet.
Janet was whispering to Arras.
Seeing the imposing militia early in the morning, Janet felt that Arras had made the decision to follow Adam as a very wise choice. As a good friend of his, Janet was happy for him from the bottom of her heart. But when she entered the training ground, she suddenly noticed that something was not very good.
"Didn't you notice that the two of us were mixed in between them, and it looked like we had been added halfway through to make up the numbers?" Janet felt a little ashamed when she said this.
Anas was enjoying the gaze of the adventurers on the training ground, and becoming a follower of a mage was no easy task.
It was only after Janet reminded him of this, and in Janet's words, the two of them were like Adam's little henchmen, although in fact they were almost little henchmen.
Arras was depressed, and what had seemed to him to be the envious gaze of the other adventurers turned into ridicule. It took him a lot of effort to restrain himself so that he didn't seem to care about their eyes. Arras decided that after coming back this time, he must practice his martial arts skills and strive to make some achievements to make Janet admire!
After a while, the door at the back of the training ground opened, and a team of guards in armor and a bald man who looked very bad looked walked in.
"Good morning, gentlemen. I'm the head of this mercenary army, Burns, the commander of the Falcon City City Defense, and I'll be on a mission for you until the battle is over. Until then, the only thing that needs to be clear is to obey orders, and I don't expect you to be able to obey orders unconditionally like real soldiers, but you have to be obedient. Otherwise I have the right to dispose of any one of you, remember, any one of you. ”
The bald Burns' words upset some of the adventurers, and they let out a burst of curses, and a buzz echoed throughout the training ground.
However, they then noticed that several knights and mages on the training ground did not react much, and their intuition made them think that it was better not to continue, so most of them chose to shut up.
Adam didn't resist the bald Burns' words too much, and he was ready for it from the moment he signed up to become a mercenary. To be honest, if you can't follow the commander's orders, why would Falcon City pay so much to hire adventurers.
Adam had noticed the position of bald Burns, the captain of the Falcon City City Defenses.
In the power structure of Falcon City, the castle lord can basically be divided into two systems, the army system headed by two generals and the administrative system headed by the deputy castle lord. The former is responsible for the military defense and offensive of Falcon City, and the latter is responsible for the day-to-day management of Falcon City's internal affairs and foreign affairs.
In the military system, the general is the highest position of power, and below the general is the commander of the various legions. In Adam's opinion, Burns, who is the commander of the city defense army, is definitely one of the high-ranking members in Falcon City.
With a legion commander in charge of mercenary affairs, it can also be seen that Falcon City is bound to win this operation.
It is worth mentioning that no matter what power system you are in, personal strength is an indispensable link. In this world of military prosperity, no one, especially professionals with extraordinary strength, would be willing to accept the rule of a group of so-called elites who can only talk about their mouths and have no strength.
Even the most conservative and traditional southern aristocratic council, which has the support of the Dawn Church, has to throw an olive branch to the powerful professionals to share the fruits of power.
And in the power structure of the Seven Cities Federation, it can be said that every high-level is a warrior or mage with a professional level of bronze or above.
Whether it's Celtic or Uppler, everything is built on strength.
Those who have the talent of a profession can choose to become a warrior or a mage, and becoming an adventurer when the strength is average seems to be the best choice, and can say goodbye to the heavy farming and land. The future is not dark without professional talent, and free people with business talent can choose to become apprentices and slowly accumulate their savings until they become merchants.
In fact, businessmen also had a very good social status, such as Martin, who had great wealth. A person with good knowledge can choose to become an academic, become an advisor to a government agency or other organization.
Without these talents, it is very important to learn a trade, and blacksmiths, bakers, butchers, etc., are all indispensable parts of society. And, of course, the most basic and numerous, farmers who provide a variety of food and crops.
"Now let's start assigning the first mission, and the leaders of each adventure party will come forward to receive your mission after I read the name."
"Carlos." The young white mage that Adam saw that day stepped forward to collect a mission book from the bald Burns' face.
Carlos still had a very decent-looking smile on his face when he stepped forward to receive the mission, but after seeing the mission description, Adam noticed that the smile on his face was a little cracked, and he even frowned. Maybe the task isn't as simple as it seems, Adam thought.
After all, he was the first to be called by his name and stepped forward to receive the mission book, Carlos's expression was very clear to the adventurers, and they couldn't help but feel very curious, what kind of difficult task made this white mage frown. One by one, the leaders of the adventure group stepped forward to take the mission book from the bald Burns, with different expressions.
Adam discovers that the leader of the adventure party he had met in the camp was also here, named Mulder.
Soon it was Adam's turn, and when his name was called, Adam stepped forward to take the mission book from the bald Burns, who even nodded to Adam. As a well-educated man, Adam also returned a smile.
Adam skimmed through his assignment quickly, a little surprised. It's not that the task he received was so difficult, on the contrary, his task was too easy.
