Chapter 12: The Super Magic War of the Anti-Penetration Agents 6
Walking out of the tent, the yellow sand in the sky has passed. The sky was clear again. In the air, there was not even a hint of a breeze. It's completely unexpected that at night, it was still a violent wind.
Putting the tent away, Kozmo led the team of reptiles out of the bunker. At this time, the location of the previous tent was basically covered with yellow sand.
Nothing happened along the way, and the group entered Canterlot. Ceci said goodbye to Wayne and Alyssa, and the better the meeting place, the caravan report was first. And Kozmo also left Wayne and his party alone and went to the Mercenary Tavern to continue looking for a new job. Wayne and the others found a place to stay.
Canterlot is the very center of the entire desert. A large city, full of orc tribes. A huge square stone pillar stands in the center of the city. On this stone pillar is the famous peace treaty.
On the north-facing side of the stone pillar is a peace treaty translated into the demon language. South-facing is the language of the Terrans. West-facing Elf. Facing east is orc language. The stone pillar is surrounded by a blessed rope. The stone pillars symbolize the sanctity of the peace treaty.
The eight directions of the stone pillars lead to the eight roads. Divide the entire city into eight zones. Canterlot is ruled by orcs. Merchants who buy and sell here pay taxes to the lord of the castle on a regular basis. You don't have to pay any taxes to live here.
There is land on the outskirts of the city that can be cultivated. The orcs are in charge of farming. Canterlot is a big oasis in the middle of the desert. Here, there are wells everywhere. You can hit the water.
Because most of the caravans that come to Canterlot will bring a lot of food because they need to deal with the sandmen. So the food here is also cheap.
Since the advent of the peace treaty, Canterlot has become a merchant's paradise. In Canterlot, you can meet merchants of all races across the continent. The eight regions of Canterlot are basically divided into the six major races of the Donovan Continent. Humans and demons each occupy two areas. Other races: one area per race.
On every continent, there are basically shops set up by various chambers of commerce. A wide variety of products are on display. Almost anything that can be seen on Donovan Continent can be bought in Canterlot. Of course, if you want high-grade products, you still need to buy them at auction or on the black market. In these shops, there are only a few regular items.
Anyway, the magic deflector they needed for Wayne couldn't be found here anyway. So, a few people just stayed at the hotel. Waiting for Sisi to return.
Soon after, Sisi returned to the hotel and met with several people. Sisi just went to the caravan to report his safety. So, soon returned.
After Secy came back, he said to everyone: "This time I went back to the caravan, I heard that there is a large group of demon caravans trading in Central City in the past few days. You can try to see if you can enter the demon caravan. ”
During this time, the demons seem to be shopping for various items in Canterlot. So, in Canterlot, mercenaries are also hired everywhere. Wayne felt that this seemed like a good opportunity. Together with Alyssa, he changed his appearance and changed into a demon costume. With Carnathan, he left the hotel. Came to the area of the demons.
In the Demon area, the owners of the shops are basically demons. It was as if Wayne had entered Africa. There were long swarthy blacks everywhere.
Wayne and the others came to the mercenary tavern of the demon clan. In the quest release area, there are a variety of quests. Wayne stood on the board of the mission release and looked at the mission that had been released. There's a bodyguard assignment, and Wayne thinks it's pretty good. contacted the tavern's junior. Accepted the task.
After handing over to Xiao Er in the tavern, after paying the handling fee, Xiao Er helped contact the task publisher. It was a gorgeously dressed demon who came. Although the man was gorgeously dressed, he looked more like a servant.
The man sat across from Wayne, who was registered as the head of the regiment. The man said, "Hello, mercenary. I'm Master Spike's butler, Maud. Let's start with your level. Maud was a little arrogant, he felt that these people of Wayne might just be some little-known mercenary group.
Wayne said, "Hello, I'm the leader of the Kurogi Mercenary Regiment, Wayne. This is the level of a few people in our mercenary group. ”
Wayne handed Maude a piece of paper, which Alyssa had written earlier. It is written the level and ability of several people. And Alyssa's ability is hidden. Because, in this world, at the level of a master of answering, it is basically impossible to participate in a mercenary group. These are all objects of competition between the major forces.
Wayne, who was written as a shooter. After all, Wayne is not bad in terms of shooting. Canathan is still a job, a warrior. If the ability of the three people is in the mercenary group, it will basically be at the level of the first or second person in the large mercenary group. Therefore, the strength of the mercenary group composed of these three people can be regarded as very strong.
And the requirements of this mission are to have few people and high rank. Therefore, Wayne felt that they should be able to take on this task.
Maude looked at the paper that Wayne handed over, and then asked, "To be honest, I didn't expect the strength of several people to be so high. But I really haven't heard of this black wood mercenary group. Maud didn't believe in Wayne's hierarchy on paper.
Wayne said, "Indeed, our mercenary group has just been established. So it's not famous. However, you can rest assured that the level. Absolutely real level. ”
With that, Alyssa unleashed a cloud of magic. The magic is controlled by Alyssa's hands, and she keeps changing shapes. It's a way for a mage to show his strength. The faster the shape changes, the clearer it becomes. The higher the strength of the mage. This is not a fake. It's all a reflection of magical prowess.
At this time, Wayne threw out a copper plate, then quickly pulled out a matching gun, and hit the edge of the copper plate with a single shot. The copper plate flew high again. When the copper plate is about to reach its peak. Wayne fired again, and the copper plate flew high again.
The action of the two shots was extremely fast. I don't see what kind of attack is being used at all. So, in the eyes of others, Wayne just shook his hands twice.
The copper plate flew high again, and at this time, Carnathan also saw that this was the time to show his strength. Draw the great axe from your back and slash it towards the copper plate. Before the copper plate touched the blade of the axe, it was cut in half by the fighting spirit brought out by the axe.
I saw such a show of strength. Maud also put away her previous arrogance. Maude said: "I really can't imagine that Canterlot is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Yes, however, with the strength of a few people, it seems that it is completely possible to form a relatively large mercenary group. Or, even if you go to a large mercenary group, you should be able to mix it up smoothly. ”
Wayne said: "That's the case, a few of us are honest, we were all adventurers before, and we just want to go back to the magic capital, so by the way, we will take over the work of mercenaries." ”
Maude said: "I see, then I understand." Okay, you guys come with me. Mistress Spike should agree to hire a few of you. ”
With that, several people followed Maude out of the tavern. Enter a large hotel in the Demon area.
Spike's rooms are luxurious, and at first glance they look like a hotel reserved for aristocrats. Whether it is from the design and decoration of the room, or the supporting facilities inside, it is full of luxury.
Mistress Spike is a dignified-looking old man. The beard is very long. He wears a headscarf like Ben ** wrapped around his head. At first glance, there are some similarities with this **.
Maud saluted Spike and whispered a few words in Spike's ear. Spike nodded. Said to Wayne: "Hello, Captain Wayne. Maud has already told me about your situation, and I think it's good. Let me tell you about this mission. If you think you can, take it. If it doesn't work, forget it. ”
Wayne nodded and said, "Okay, Master Spike." ”
Spike said, "This mission is very simple, it's to escort me back to the territory. I was originally the eldest son of the lord of the Henrietta region. When I was younger, I didn't like to be a lord, so I gave up the lordship to my younger brother. I traveled all over the world until recently, when my brother passed away and he only had one daughter, so I needed to go back and take over as lord. ”
"It's just that my niece's husband, who is now the defense manager of the Henrietta region, may not want me to go back and take over as lord. So, I'm afraid he'll send someone to assassinate me. So, this time I invite you to come, I am responsible for my safety. Spike said.
When Wayne heard this, he also understood the general idea of this mission. Wayne asked, "Master Spike, I want to know, what do you think are the odds of you being assassinated?" ”
Spike thought for a moment and said, "That's really hard to say. After all, my brother had just passed away, and if I just went back to take care of the aftermath, they wouldn't have embarrassed me. Just ......"
Spike doesn't say anything else, but Wayne understands. If Spike were to go back and fight for the lordship, his niece's husband would probably go down on him. It's just that whether you will start on the road, no one can say for sure.
Wayne also understood why he was looking for mercenaries with a high level instead of a lot of people.
In fact, as long as he can infiltrate the demon area, it has nothing to do with whether this Spike is dead or alive. Wayne is tasked with finding the magic deflector. Then bring back to the cross-pass round. What exactly is like here has nothing to do with Wayne.
Thinking of this, Wayne nodded and agreed to Spark's offer. Two people signed a contract. Wayne then leaves Spark's room with Alyssa and Carnathan. Sparka was next door, opened a room for a few people, and a few people also stayed. Waiting for news of Spike's departure.
