Chapter 351: Escort Mission
After Ji Xiao joined the Wind Chasing Mercenary Group, he knew that the strength of this mercenary group was not bad, with a total of forty-five members, Lao Hei, as the head of the group, was a three-star honor, and the deputy head Qin Liwen was also a two-star honorable peak, and there were four two-star honorable martial artists, and the rest were all one-star honorables.
There are no "clerical staff" in this team, that is, researchers, and they will take back all kinds of materials they collect and sell them to the Seven Killings Palace, and the Seven Killings Hall will not pit them.
And Apei said that the vast majority of mercenary groups will not accept "clerical" because it is too risky. Sometimes when your life is in danger, you can't protect yourself, and you have to spend energy to protect others, which will drag down the whole team.
Hearing this, Ji Xiao's original hope of building another mercenary group with the team was completely dispelled.
"Don't know where we're going on our next mission?" Ji Xiao asked.
Ah Pei said: "We just came back yesterday, not to mention that we have to rest for a month, as for where to go, we will only know when we take the task." Speaking of which, she had already taken Ji Xiao back to their residence.
Their residence is actually still the manor of the Seven Killing Palace, but they live in a single-family villa inside, which is much better than Ji Xiao's dormitory environment.
"Hey, here's the newcomer...... It's you? ”
"Isn't this the poisoner from yesterday?"
After some noisy introductions, Ji Xiao finally settled down in the Wind Chasing Mercenary Group, and he was able to set off after only a month.
Ji Xiao was assigned to a separate room, and as soon as he entered the room, Ji Xiao sent a message to his teammates. Of course, "teammates" here refer to teammates from the Blade Expedition.
Hearing about her plan, her teammates were all envious, they were all people who were used to freedom, and when they came here, they were tied up, and even the expenses were stretched, and they were afraid of provoking a big enemy.
Among the group, Jing Feng is the one with the best development, and with a great master, his status is naturally different. Yun Sha is second, Ji Xiao is third, and the others are only a few researchers, and pure martial artists like Yuan Mengjun and Ma Chengyu are the worst.
Unless they can break through to the one-star zun.
The reason why Ji Xiao joined the mercenary group is also for this reason, joining the mercenary group, she makes money more freely, and when she earns enough money, she will buy two Zhuhua fruits for the two of them. She had already checked on the Internet, and the price of a Zhuhua fruit was about five hundred and one pint spars.
Ji Xiao didn't tell Yuan Mengjun and Ma Chengyu about this plan, and she didn't know when she would be able to earn enough 1,000 spars, so it was better not to give people hope first.
A month later, the Wind Chasing Mercenary Group finally set off, and their next task on this trip was to escort, which took about three months, and the reward was 1,000 and 1,000 spars. Of course, if there is an accident on the way, the thousand spars will be deducted according to the degree of the accident.
Because it was an escort mission, they did not use their own battleship, but got on someone else's spaceship. This spaceship is very luxurious, and all the equipment on it is the most advanced in this era, which shows the wealth of the owner.
It wasn't until they got on the spaceship that Ji Xiao saw the true face of the person who hired them, who was actually an acquaintance, the young lady from the City Lord's Mansion. In addition to the hired wind chasing mercenary group, she only brought an old servant with her, known as "Aunt Song".
"Hey, see you again." The pretty girl doesn't seem to be much more mature than three years ago, she is still a cute baby face, and her temperament is innocent and lively.

Ji Xiao saluted, "Miss." ”
"Why are you so serious?" The girl frowned, looking very unhappy, and then said, "You call me Huanhuan, my name is Qiu Huanhuan." ”
Ji Xiao only hesitated for a moment before agreeing, and called "Huanhuan", Qiu Huanhuan smiled, and then approached Ji Xiao's side and whispered: "I listened to your words, and now I am going to find him." ”
Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, then remembered the idea she gave Qiu Huanhuan three years ago, and couldn't help blushing. However, it's been three years, why did Qiu Huanhuan wait until now?
Qiu Huanhuan seemed to see her doubts and explained: "Father said that my strength is too low, but I don't like to cultivate, so he found me Aunt Song to protect me. In the first two years, she was in a critical period of breakthrough, so she waited until now. ”
I see.
Ji Xiao nodded clearly, Qiu Huanhuan suddenly became shy, and said in a low voice: "You say, if he sees me, will he be very happy?" ”
Ji Xiao rolled her eyes when she heard this, God, she didn't even know what kind of person the other party was, how would she know if he was happy?
However, Qiu Huanhuan didn't seem to intend for her to answer, she just wanted to find someone to talk to, so she whispered again without waiting for her to speak......
After coming back from Qiu Huanhuan, before Ji Xiao had time to take a breath, she was pulled over by Apela again, asked about her relationship with Qiu Huanhuan, and finally asked her to have a good relationship with Qiu Huanhuan.
This time, the place they went to was the most remote corner of the Rainbow Star Field, called Tyne Star, although it was in the same star field as Sky City, it was hundreds of millions of miles away. Coupled with the remote geographical location and rampant star thieves, the danger factor is actually extremely high.
Star bandits, also known as interstellar bandits, are strong and weak, but they have one thing in common, that is, they all lick blood on the knife edge and kill people without blinking.
After getting familiar with the situation at the beginning of getting on the spaceship, everyone fell into cultivation in the following days, and Ji Xiao was no exception. She has only broken through to the One Star Venerable for more than a month, and she is not very familiar with this realm, and she still needs to practice a lot.
After stepping into Xingzun, there are seven realms, one stepping on the star, two melting, three points of intention, four absolute separation, five rushing to the sky, six convergence, and seven returning, Ji Xiao is now in the realm of stepping on the star.
In fact, as far as Ji Xiao knows, most people will not rely on mecha when they travel interstellarly, not because there are no mechas, but because the speed of mecha is not as fast as they are.
Of course, there are good mechas, but they are all sky-high.
Compared with the Galactic Star Field, the population here is larger, and the consumption is also greater, which can be said to be in short supply. In addition, mecha is an energy consumable, especially high-level battles are terrifying for energy consumption, so the price of mecha is also rising.
In the Wind Chasing Expedition Team, there are only two people who have mecha that match their own strength, one is the captain Lao Hei, and the other is the deputy captain Qin Liwen. The price of Lao Hei's three-star mecha reached 1,200 first-grade spars, and Qin Liwen's two-star mecha also reached 801-grade spars, all of which they had saved for decades before buying.
Ji Xiao can only control mechas, but he has no other research, so he can't see anything special about the two mechas. But if they change the cloud veil, they will find that every major part on these two mecha is made of extremely rare materials, and the price of materials alone can discourage many people.
