Chapter 124: The Meeting
Highly recommended:
Liu Li, who closed the door, lay back on the bed, combing through the information of the six people he had just obtained. There is no doubt that Blazer is the strongest besides himself, but everyone else also has their own strengths. Thor and Ella are definitely the best firepower output points, especially the two of them, one of them is studying and praying for the spirit and the other is specialized in practicing spells, even if they encounter a group of demonic beasts, they should have a good performance. As for the two brothers, Hughes and Colin, as they said, the environment where the green element is rich enough is very suitable for them to play, and although the green spell is generally lacking in attack power, it is extremely outstanding in terms of limiting effect. Sally, that little girl, has worked on defensive spells, and if she can overcome her timidity, she can be the best protector for the whole team in battle.
"Sure enough, none of the lamps that can be recognized by Mr. Landor are fuel-efficient. ”
"So you're optimistic about them too?" Along with a slightly hoarse voice, it was Fei Li's figure.
"Anyway, what are you doing here without sleeping at night? Liu Li didn't answer Fei Li's question, but asked suspiciously.
"It's too dangerous over there, that uncle named Merriette blew up the room next to you. As she was enjoying the comfort of the soft bed, a violent vibration accompanied by a loud bang appeared at close range, which really scared the Assassin girl enough. She had just entered the world of spellcasters, and she couldn't stand this kind of stimulation, and besides, she couldn't spend the night in a room with a hole in the wall.
"Bombed again? It seems that the teacher is not here, and this guy is becoming more and more unscrupulous. Obviously, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened, when Liu Li first met in the morning, he saw Mérieux's neat appearance and thought that he had already changed this problem, but he didn't expect it to explode again before the day passed. Mérietre never cares where he is, as soon as he has a new idea in his head, he wants to put it into practice. Liu Li still remembers that in the more than two years he had lived here, he had caused no less than a hundred explosions outside the laboratory, and the fine for repairing the Mage Tower had already left the uncle with a debt that would be difficult to pay off for the rest of his life.
"So did you know that this kind of thing would happen?" Fei Li's tone was not good, and she seemed to have a deep grudge against Liu Li for not reporting it.
"How did I know he was going to move to the room next to me this time. Liu Li is also innocent, he was still in another room when he met with Mérietre in the morning, and it seems that this is not the first explosion today. "By the way, how long have you been here?"
"It wasn't long before you came over when you were just discussing the 'defensive spell structure' with that little rabbit. Fei Li was not polite at all, and lifted Liu Li off the bed as she spoke, and then turned over the magpie's nest.
"You're really ...... You're welcome at all. Liu Li, who was caught off guard, lay on the ground with grinning teeth, endured the pain and got up, and there was nothing she could do about Fei Li's behavior. "Anyway, I just calculated you once, and you have been holding grudges for more than half a year, so it's about the same, and besides, my injury was not light. ”
Liu Li's complaint was only exchanged for a sneer from Concubine Li, and a gloomy and sympathetic sentence, "Hehe, I'm a more cautious person, and I have a long time of holding grudges." ”
Liu Li has nothing to do with this girl who is not worrying, but fortunately, there are still a lot of spare rooms in the hotel, and he doesn't have to worry about accommodation, as for the surprised eyes of the innkeeper when he went to open the room, he was completely ignored by Liu Li.
The next day, the group had a small gathering, and instead of the previous night's discussion of magic, this time the topic focused on the internship task. However, their discussions, Liu Li seems to be mostly imaginary, but there are really few that are in line with reality.
In fact, among these students, except for Liu Li, the leader who concealed his identity, only Sally was the one who had really experienced actual combat. The little girl who was hiding behind Ella was so anxious that she almost cried out loud several times when she wanted to tell her companion about the mercenary mercenary, but she was too timid to interrupt the arguments that seemed unrealistic to her.
There aren't many casters who are gifted in magic circles, and Landolia teaches this Sally more strictly than the others. Even in order to let the little girl overcome her timidity, she also entrusted a mercenary who was familiar with Wells to take her to participate in several actual combat missions, and Fei Li's actual combat experience also came from this. It's just that no matter how hard the vice president tries, Fei Li's personality seems to be stereotyped, and she has never changed in any way, she still looks timid and cowardly, and after a few times, the vice president has to give up her previous plans.
The only thing that makes Landolia happy is that although the little girl never communicates with people, she has been carefully collecting information and turning it into her own experience, at least she has never hesitated when the mercenaries need magic support, and the use of spells is just right. At the same time, Sally's level of setting up the circle has also increased with her more experience.
The next day, in a hurry in the midst of everyone's discussion, Liu Li took the time to go to the mercenary guild to arrange the meeting between the mercenaries and the students tomorrow, and by the way, brought some lunch to these guys who came up with strange ideas. It wasn't until the evening disbanded and everyone went back to the room that Liu Li silently took out a notebook and recorded the ratings of the six people. At this time, everyone's scores, from high to low, were Sally: 14 points, Thor: 7 points, Blazer: 5 points, Hughes: 4 points, Colin: 2 points, and Ella: 0 points.
Early in the morning of the third day, under Liu Li's secret instructions, Fei Li, the "team leader", did not let the students move freely like yesterday, but gathered them together and led the team to the Mercenary Guild. Yesterday's one-day discussion made Liu Li understand a truth, if these guys are allowed to act separately, let alone three days, even if it takes out half a month, they may not be able to prepare for the trip, which is still the time calculated on the premise of providing some help after Sally is familiar with everyone.
As can be seen from the scores given to them last night, apart from the honest and honest Thor, who can also come up with some relatively normal ideas, the two brothers Hughes and Colin have only received crooked scores. As for Blazer and Ella, it's completely whimsical, and Sally's 11 points for rejecting the two of them's advice can be seen how big their brains are. Liu Li had no choice but to advance the scheduled meeting in the afternoon to early in the morning, so as to allow them some time to complete the preparations for the trip under the guidance of experienced mercenaries.
"Hey, Liu Li, is you tall?" Powell greeted Liu Li with a loud voice, and then the two of them punched each other in the chest like old friends meeting, and the result was naturally that the sturdy old qualified mercenary flew out upside down, causing the onlookers to laugh at each other. Liu Li didn't make a ruthless move, but skillfully transmitted the "heavy" power of the martial arts, although the head of the regiment was disgraced, he actually didn't suffer any damage. Liu Li didn't forget the previous joke about the relationship between himself and Heng, and now he finally found a chance to take revenge. Of course, at this time, he chose to forget the question of saying that Fei Li held a grudge last night.
Powell took over the position of head of the "Jianshi" mercenary group not by virtue of his strong strength, but by his outstanding command ability in battle, and naturally he could not resist Liu Li's blow. The head of the regiment didn't care about being angry, just opened his mouth and looked at the boy he hadn't seen for three years. Being able to use the beginner martial arts so proficiently proved that it had been a long time since Liu Li was promoted to a full-fledged martial artist, which made him surprised and discouraged at the same time. It's not that Powell hasn't thought about practicing martial arts, it's just that his talent seems to be all in command, and his combat skills have been honed for so many years, but his strength still hasn't made much breakthrough.
"Good boy, how powerful are you now?"
"That's that, it's good to meet the rock *** next time for me. ”
"Hey, head of the regiment, now that even Xiao Liu Li can let you go with one move, shouldn't you consider retiring?"
"Nonsense, I don't know what my strength is?" Powell didn't care about the reaction of his mercenaries at all, "You want to drive me down so quickly, do you have any ideas about the position of the regiment commander?"
"Don't, boss, I was wrong, I don't have any idea at all, you better sit in this position with peace of mind. The mercenary's attitude directly changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and he admitted: "But didn't Carbin say yesterday that Liu Li's strength is not what it used to be, why are you asking for trouble, commander?"
"I ...... I'm not trying to confirm that. Powell's rare old face flushed, which once again drew a burst of laughter in the lobby.
Looking at Liu Li's appearance like a fish in water, except for Fei Li and Sally, everyone else had a ghostly expression. Several of them are pure academic mages, somewhat self-contained, and generally don't mix with mercenaries. Although as a student of Landolia, there is nothing wrong with their character, but in Eleno City, they will also take into account the eyes of their classmates around them, and dare not do anything out of the ordinary.
It was the indifferent Concubine Li who dragged Powell up from the ground, it was not that she insisted on making this expression, the assassin girl just had to do this in order to maintain her image in the hearts of the students, "Captain Powell, please ask some people to take these little guys to prepare for the trip in a while, the experience of these children...... It's so bad, I listened to them discuss it for a day yesterday, and it even made me wonder if it was the right decision to bring them out this time. ”
Hearing Fei Li's bluntness, several spellcasters blushed and glared at Liu Li at the same time, they all knew that only Liu Li, who was a disciple of Landolia, had the opportunity to communicate with the team leader. As everyone knows, the target they are glaring at is the real leader of this internship.
"No problem, leave it to me, I believe that many of the young men under my command are willing to serve the noble mage. ”
"Hehe, that's not what I meant. Fei Li glanced back at the poor students, and then continued, "I hope that the boys under your command will make these chicks realize the cruelty of the forest. ”
"Ah...... Well, there's nothing wrong with that, and I'm sure there are plenty of people who are willing to take on this task. ”
