Every traveler to the commercial capital of Sikeld has to admit that Sickerd is a beautiful and strange city.

It is said to be beautiful because the commercial capital of Siekerd, a beautiful coastal city, has some of the most beautiful beaches on the mainland. The Gold Coast, on the south side of West Enter, is one of the most famous tourist attractions on the mainland, and a large number of tourists come here every year from all corners of the continent, making a great contribution to the prosperity of West Child.

And it is strange because the capital of this mercenary kingdom does not have walls.

To be precise, this giant city does not have the tall walls that should be at the outermost point, but there is still a low wall on the outside of the inner city where the city council hall is located, otherwise Roger will definitely think that the head of the royal family of Gelaru has been kicked by a donkey.

However, every visitor who came here, including Roger now, did not think that this city without the protection of the city walls could be easily captured.

The reason is that among the top ten top mercenary groups recognized as the top ten on this continent, six of the top mercenary groups are located outside this city.

And now, Roger, who has done some disguise with the Orb of Deception, is in the camp of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Regiment.

The Sword and Rose Mercenary Group ranks third among the top ten mercenary groups, but everyone knows that even if the two mercenary groups ranked first and second join forces, they may not be able to defeat this mercenary group.

The reason is that most of the high-level leaders of Sword and Rose are women.

Originally, the Sword and Rose Mercenary Regiment was formed by a group of half-elves. Due to the rules of the elven family, most half-elves are not recognized as members of the elven family. However, due to the fact that a large number of elves who have separated from the union of elves and humans still have a considerable degree of contact with relatives and friends who are still in the elven race, this group of half-elves born from free love is still very cared for by the elves.

However, perhaps due to the fact that in the families where the elves and the human race are combined, the elves are generally more powerful than the human race. Therefore, the half-elves generally prefer the elven bloodline after all. As a result, the proportion of women in half-elves is much higher than that of men, as is the case in the elves today. Although the male-to-female ratio of half-elves is not as exaggerated as the 1:3 ratio in the elven race, it has reached the level of 1:2.

However, among the elves and half-elves, the strength of women is generally much stronger than that of men, so for the elves and half-elves who are all soldiers. None of this is a problem. After all, a demonic disaster will cause a large attrition of elven soldiers, so the elves don't need to think about any imbalance between men and women now.

But half-elf girls and elven girls, among a considerable number of Terran nobles, are the hottest and sought-after goods. Compared to the heavily protected elven girls, the half-elf children, who are caught between the elves and the human race, and have a much stronger posture and body, are obviously easier targets for slave traders, so the half-elf residence has always been the hardest hit area of the slave hunting group.

In the case of the repeated disappearance of the half-elf children, the members of the elven clan who are inextricably linked to these half-elf children cannot sit still. After all, where these half-elf families are located. It is generally on the periphery of the Misty Forest, which is within the sphere of influence of the elves, and it is also very justified for the elves to make a move.

Under such conditions, with the tacit consent of the high-level members of the elf clan, and with the secret support of some elf masters, the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group quickly established an armed force belonging to the half-elves.

The purpose of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group, when it was first established, was to protect vulnerable groups of half-elf children and women, and maintain the harmony and stability of the half-elf family. Dedicated to fighting slave traders and aristocratic forces such as the purchase of elven and half-elven slaves, etc.

It was precisely because of this purpose that the original members of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Regiment were directly encouraged by the Moon God. The strength is growing very fast. With the support of these half-elf masters, the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group eventually quickly became one of the top mercenary groups in the mainland.

It is also because of this purpose that after that, many female legendary magicians and female legendary rangers and other top female strong women on the continent have joined one after another, making the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group completely become a gathering place for strong women, which makes many slave hunting groups fearful.

And there is always no shortage of suitors for good women. The outer members of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group are the most numerous among the ten mercenary groups. Therefore, even though the comprehensive strength of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group is only ranked third among the top ten mercenary groups, no force dares to underestimate the mercenary group led by these strong women.

After all, those fools who once underestimated the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group have become the souls of these strong women. As long as the members of the current major mercenary groups are not stupid, they will not directly offend this group of women composed of female men, strong women, female hooligans and so on.

God knows if these women will turn their faces on the spot. Many ruffians and hooligans were directly beaten to death by these feminists just because of a meat joke. Therefore, the atmosphere in the commercial capital of Siquel is very good now, at least the ruffians and hooligans on the streets are definitely one of the least among the major Terran cities.

Due to the origin of the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group, the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group has also become one of the links between the elves and the mercenary kingdom, and many of the special products sold by the elves are consigned to the merchant capital Sikeld through this mercenary group.

This is a business that the rest of the mercenary groups absolutely cannot interfere in, and it is very difficult to get on the line with the elves, and it is even rarer to be able to gain the trust of the elves. Because of this fairly stable long-term income, the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group has always been not short of funds, so its station has been built by these strong women to be almost invulnerable, and the number of powerful war machines such as elven ballistas and other large-scale killing weapons is so sophisticated that it can definitely make enemies who try to attack this station feel numb in their scalps and sore limbs.

And six of the powerful mercenary regiments like the Sword and Rose Mercenary Regiment are located outside the merchant capital of Sikeld. And if the six mercenary regiments stationed on the outskirts of Shangdu are all broken, even if the defenders of Shangdu Sikeld are no longer incompetent, it is impossible for the enemy attacking Shangdu to occupy the seemingly undefended Shangdu.

Because of this, the city of Shang, which has no walls, is known as one of the safest cities on the mainland, ranking second only to the holy capital of Haven, where the Church of the Gods is located, and the Sky City of Sephir, the Tower of the Nine Rings.

Roger disguised himself as a middle-aged man with a deception orb and followed the elven caravan all the way to the Sword and Rose Mercenary Regiment. Because I came with the elven caravan. Therefore, although he is a human, he successfully entered the Sword and Rose Residence, and stayed in the best inn in the Sword and Rose Residence, "Rose Heart".

At this moment, Roger was sitting in the private room on the second floor of the hotel, quietly observing through the window another mercenary group outside the Sword and Rose Mercenary Group-the Iron Blood Mercenary Group.

The Iron Blood Mercenary Group is now a mercenary group directly under the royal family of Gelaru, and it is also the mercenary group where King Lance was when he was named the Mercenary King in the past. Relying on the mercenary king Lance's eloquence. The iron-blooded mercenary group has only then jumped from a second-rate mercenary group to a top-tier mercenary group ranked first among the top ten mercenary groups.

Although many people think that the strength of the iron-blooded mercenary group is not enough to be called the first, it is just that the mercenary guild headquarters in the merchant capital of West Kleld pinched their noses and pushed it up in order to pat the mercenary king's ass. However, in Roger's opinion, under the leadership of the mercenary king Lance, the iron-blooded mercenary group merged with another mercenary group led by the royal family of Gelaru, and the elite members under its command are definitely worthy of being called the first mercenary group.

After all, even the strength of the sentries is all a mercenary group above level eighteen, and they are already qualified to compete with the Unicorn Knights, the ace troops of the capital of the elves in New Greentown.

However, looking at the heavily guarded strong-guarded Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group station, Roger's eyes couldn't help but flash a look of doubt.

Although the Iron Will Mercenary Group is indeed quite heavily guarded, it doesn't seem that the atmosphere is very dignified. Roger even saw two bored sentinels chatting. Although they did not let their guard down, it was enough to show that for the Iron and Blood Mercenary Regiment, this should be just a daily level of vigilance.

It's as if the iron-blooded mercenary group doesn't know that the mercenary king is actually seriously injured and dying.

What's going on? Roger's brow furrowed.

The iron-blooded mercenary group was cultivated by the mercenary king Lance, and it is definitely the elite of the Praetorian Guard who is loyal to the royal family of Gelaru, and it is a big help of the royal family of Gelaru now, it should be impossible not to know the news of the serious injury of the mercenary king Lance. But if you have already learned the news. At this moment when the rain is about to come, the atmosphere in the iron-blooded mercenary group should not be so relaxed.

Unless......

Roger withdrew his gaze. Drink all the wine in your hand.

Maybe the mercenary king's injuries are more serious than imagined, and they may even be in a coma, so the royal family of Gelaru did not tell the news of the serious injury of the mercenary king of the iron-blooded mercenary group in order to keep it secret.

If so, it would be very difficult for Roger to sneak into Geraroo's Castle in Wickeld. After all, West Ward City may now be heavily guarded on the outside and on the inside.

Considering that the news of the mercenary king's serious injury is best not to leak out. And now there is no suitable reason to contact the royal family of Gelaru, so after thinking about it carefully, Roger still decided to quietly break into Gelaru Castle after nightfall.

I knew that this would happen, so I brought Aisha and the others with me. Roger laughed at himself, after all, he wasn't very good at sneaking in.

Just to be on the safe side. Roger came to the Mercenary Kingdom alone, and he didn't even bring his animal companion Little Fireball, let alone a few big living people.

After eating the special dish of "Rose Heart" "Fruit Cake" casually, Roger calmly returned to his room, and then took out the jerky from the space bar and opened his mouth to chew it.

It's a pity to see that both elves and half-elves prefer vegetarian dishes made of fruits and vegetables, so Roger has eaten several vegetarian meals in the past two days, and now even an ordinary piece of jerky can make Roger eat very deliciously. (To be continued......)
