Chapter 6 Mercenaries

Located at the northwest tip of the Kametnevia Peninsula and connected to the mainland of the Brilliant Continent, the Kingdom of Vimumen has the title of mercenary kingdom and mercenary paradise, this country is the birthplace of modern mercenary groups, more than half of the mercenary groups on the three continents of Olopa, and two-thirds of the mercenaries are registered in this kingdom where the territory and population are not too dominant, and its capital Anji Benn City is the location of the headquarters of the mercenary guild, and it is regarded as the mercenary capital of the holy land by all mercenaries

There are more than 10 large and small mercenary arenas in Anji Benn City, these arenas are notarized by some mercenary guild cadres and local officials, so that mercenaries can compete freely, these places are not only a place for mercenaries to learn and compete for combat skills, but also a place for mercenary groups to find and select new members, some mercenaries can achieve a relatively high ranking in the competition, not only can get a certain amount of rewards, but also get the favor of some mercenary groups with relatively high ratings, and are selected to become new members

In this kingdom, the vast majority of mercenary arenas are jointly operated by mercenary guilds and local chambers of commerce, they charge fees for registered mercenaries and mercenary groups, as well as mercenaries who apply to participate in competitions as the main source of income, and some mercenary arenas also run gambling businesses about mercenary competitions, from which they earn a huge amount of gray income, not only that, the mercenary arena also makes the taverns and brothels in Anji Benn City very prosperous, so the mercenary industry and its derivative industries are the main source of income for the kingdom of Weimumen

Moreover, in the war, the Vimumen Kingdom is also more likely to be supported by high-level mercenary groups than other countries, which is why the Weimumen Kingdom, which is relatively weakest among the twelve powers, can stand side by side with the other eleven powers

And these arenas are also divided into two types: junior and advanced, and those who have just registered as mercenaries can only fight other junior mercenaries in the junior arena, and when they achieve good results, they are eligible to compete in the advanced arena

At noon on that day, a man came to the door of a high-class arena and submitted an application to the sleepy staff to enter the arena to participate in the competition

You just got the qualification of a junior mercenary more than a month ago, this is not the place you should come to, first go to the junior arena and get a record of 100 points, and then the staff member glanced at the registration date on the information he provided, and didn't look at it, the man threw the information on the table, and said lazily

I have already achieved 100 points, please take a closer look, the staff is sloppy, and it does not displease the man, he seems to have expected it, and explained to the other party very calmly

What staff didn't believe his ears, he picked up the information on the table again, and saw that it was indeed a 100-point record, how could it be that this time it was his turn to not be trusted by the master

Yes, you read that right, it is indeed 100 points, and the man smiled

It says that you have competed in 100 matches in the junior arena, but you have achieved a record of 100 points...... The drowsiness of the staff disappeared suddenly, and you won all 100 games

According to the mercenary arena's record points regulations, mercenaries will increase one point for every battle they win in the arena, and one point will be deducted for each loss, if it is a draw, they will not be deducted or added, and they can achieve a record of 100 points in 100 competitions, in addition to winning all, what is the reason

The man smiled without saying a word, and his confident demeanor had replaced the answer

The staff quickly opened his information and read it carefully: Cumbu Ambston was from the Rocard Empire, had served in the Imperial Navy, and was a civilian...... No, you have the surname 'Ambuston', why would you be a commoner?

According to the practice of the Holy Light Society, only nobles deserve to have surnames, and ordinary commoners do not have surnames, so it is not surprising that this staff member questioned them

My great-great-grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather, and father had served the lords of the Earl of Ambuston in the southeastern part of the Rocal Empire for four generations, so when it came to my father's generation, they gave my father the surname Khunbu said a little bit of it, apparently he had explained this many times before

So that's the case, and the staff nodded in understanding

It is true that the laws of various countries allow nobles to give commoner surnames, but these surnames received by commoners only represent a reward, but do not mean that they can squeeze into the aristocratic class, commoners are still commoners, and this surname can only be passed down for a maximum of three generations

Can I apply for the application process...... Seeing that the staff was a little dazed, Kun Bu hurriedly reminded

No problem, in a short period of more than a month, he can achieve a complete victory in the junior arena, the staff realized that this new mercenary is indeed not simple, he didn't dare to slack off anymore, and hurriedly took out a quill and a thick register, you only need to pay a fee of 10 gold coins to enter our arena to participate in the competition, and then in the future, for every gold coin paid, you can participate in four battles, and every three wins in a row will give you an extra chance to fight, the scoring method of the advanced arena is different from the junior arena, you can challenge anyone with a higher rank than you in the advanced arena, and if you win, you can replace his rankingIn the same way, you can be challenged by anyone who is ranked lower than you, and if you lose, you will be relegated to their original rank, if you can finish in the top 20 in our arena, you can participate in future battles for free, and you will get an extra cash prize for each round you win, and your results will be registered in a special book, if you quit in the middle of the battle......

The staff member, who seemed to see a cash cow, gushed about the rules of the high-level arena to Khunbu Ambston and listened attentively, then reached out and took a dozen gold coins from his money bag and handed them to the staff

Now the wish has finally come true

Cumbu Ambston looked at the purse in his hand with emotion, and he remembered that its original owner, if he hadn't met the two brothers, he would still be living a humiliating life as a high-ranking thug in the Bog Guild in Port Vila
