Chapter 10: Spooky Mission

"You say they're your missing members?" Andrew was shocked.

Christina nodded silently.

"All five?"

Christina still nodded silently, biting her lip with a lonely expression.

Stretching his neck, Andrew glanced through the crack in the door at the five people whispering in the cubicle, then looked up in the direction of Bian's office, and saw that the curtains in Bian's VI's office were drawn.

"It can't be deliberately arranged, can it? How could it be so coincidental?"

Hesitating, Andrew took a deep breath and finally pushed open the door of the cubicle and walked in.

The five mercenary members all stopped talking and looked at Andrew.

"Let me introduce you to you. Hannah stood up, smiled, and said, "This is Kevin, the head of the White Vulture Mercenary Regiment. ”

It was the human healer who stood up. He wears a white robe like a priest's robe, holds a cane, and has a hairstyle that resembles a pot lid. He looks like he's only in his early twenties, and he's a little childish.

Holding out a hand to Andrew across the long table, Kevin smiled and said, "Nice to meet you." You're the leader of the Blood Elves and Dragons Mercenary Regiment, Durul, haven't you? You've been in the limelight among adventurers lately, and we've never seen a mercenary group rise so quickly. ”

Andrew stood up and stretched out a hand towards him and shook it: "I'm Durrou, that's right." But you're wrong. My head of the regiment is this Miss Christina, not me. ”

Hearing this, Kevin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and his gaze slowly crossed towards Christina. The other mercenaries also looked at Christina with a stunned expression.

Christina bowed her head slightly and sat silently. The hand unconsciously clenched the corners of the skirt.

"Fortunately. Kevin smiled at Andrew and sat back down, his eyes still glancing in Christina's direction from time to time.

The atmosphere in the room was a little weird.

Hannah, who didn't know anything about the relationship between them, seemed to feel it, and her tone changed a little: "This is Miss Christina, I think the mercenaries of Lin LΓ³pez should know her name." She's now the leader of the Blood Elves and Dragons Mercenary Regiment......"

Probably because she couldn't hold it back, Hannah asked directly, "Do you know each other?"

At this question, all five members of the White Vulture Mercenary Group laughed. Kevin turned his face sideways and said, "Not only do we know each other, but we were once mercenaries under her. ”

"Is that like that? What a coincidence. Hannah smiled awkwardly. Immediately afterwards, it seemed that she also realized something, and hurriedly flipped through the materials in her hand, and then closed it with a "snap", propped up a smile and said, "Since you all know each other, then I won't introduce it." ”

"Nope. Andrew raised his hand expressionlessly, pointed to four of the people opposite him and said, "The four of them, I don't know the names yet." ”

"Uh...... Okay, so I'll move on. Hannah wiped her sweat and continued, "This is Carol, a member of the White Vulture Mercenary Regiment. ”

Standing up was the elven archer, the female elf. With long light blonde hair full of wood elf characteristics, a delicate face, and an extremely lean slender figure, he wears an emerald green marksman suit and a high hat with a white feather on the hat. He carried a bow behind his back and an arrow basket at his waist.

Carol took off her hat and said with a smile, "Hello, first time we met, my name is Carol. Then he sat back.

"Hello. Andrew nodded at her.

"This is Hammer Hansen. ”

Standing up was the bearded warrior dwarf. Short in stature, with thick limbs, a large beard, heavy armor, and a giant hammer. A very standard dwarven warrior image.

He nodded briefly at Andrew, said nothing, and sat back.

"This is Tina. ”

This time it was the human thief who stood up. Female, with long red hair, shabby, inconspicuous clothes. There is also a scimitar at his waist.

She also nodded to Andrew, didn't say anything, and sat back.

"This is Brian. ”

The last to stand up was the elven mage. It's also a wood elf, and it looks very similar to the elven archer Carol sitting next to her, except that one is a man and the other is a woman. Dressed in blue mage robes, he holds a staff inlaid with purple gemstones.

There are a lot of elves in Lorrinpace in the entire continent, but there are only one hundred and sixty elven mercenaries. can have two in a mercenary group, this mercenary group should be relatively powerful in Lorraine Pace.

Nodding silently to Andrew, he sat back as well.

Christina still sat quietly, bowing her head slightly, not saying a word.

"Alright, I'm done, now, let's start our meeting?" said Hannah, looking cautiously at both sides.

"Okay, let's get started. Andrew replied softly.

"Let's get started. Kevin replied softly.

"Okay, then we're going to get started. Hannah smiled and flipped through the information in her hand.

......

"Why did Miss Christina have to be on a mission with her former members?" asked Miss Secretary in a whisper in the office.

After thinking about it, Bian VI replied: "It's a test. ”

"Testing?"

"Yes, testing. Taking a puff on his cigar, Bian VI grinned and said, "I have great faith in Christina's strength, after all, she is a dragon." Even if she doesn't know a single magic, she is a very powerful force. I'm sure it's not just me, it's the whole Lorraine Pace that thinks so. That Blood Elf Duru...... Well, he shouldn't be called by that name, but since he calls himself that, let's call him that. That Durau, too, must have been a powerful character. His magic power should be very strong, not comparable to ordinary blood elves. ”

"How do you know that?"

"Guess. We can't know everything, and once we know what we know, the rest is just guessing. I also have a lot of faith in his quality. But the problem of the Blood Elves and the Dragon Mercenary Group has never been strength. Their problem is their controllability. If it had been Christina in the past, I would have just given it up because the controllability was so bad. A good mercenary group must not only be strong, but also be able to obey orders. Now join this blood elf named Duru...... I want to see where they are controllable now. I heard that those mercenaries all ran away from Christina. Hahahaha, we just need to put them together and we should be able to see a good show. The next strategy will depend on the completion of their mission. With that, Bian-VI took another deep puff on his cigar.

"I see. Miss Secretary smiled and nodded.

......

In the cubicle, the atmosphere was still so dreary.

Andrew stared at each other with five alone, while Christina lowered her head slightly.

Finally, Hannah finished what she had to say, closed the materials in her hand, and concluded: "So, in general, this mission is an escort mission. You will need to escort a family to Valesia. for one month. The route is already in your hands. What you need to do is to ensure the safety of the escorts. Complete the quest and both of you will receive a bounty of 2,000 gold coins. At the same time, the side that gets a higher rating will be rewarded with an additional 5,000 gold coins. And if something goes wrong, you won't get a dime. In addition, you will need to pay a deposit of 5,000 gold coins each. If the mission fails, you will be deducted all deposits. ”

"Two thousand plus two thousand, plus five thousand. A total of 9,000 gold coins. Andrew thought for a moment and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, the ticket from here to Valesia is only five silver coins." Can you tell me the family to escort...... What kind of family is it?"

"If it is not written on the information, it is not written, which usually means that there is no comment. ”

"So who would pose a threat to the family? Nine thousand gold coins to secure a stretch of the road, it sounds like a dragon is coming to rob the road. ”

Again, there is no comment on this question. Hannah smiled and replied, "And don't you have a dragon in the ranks, and if there's a dragon in the way, I don't think there's a problem at all." ”

Andrew silently glanced back at Christina and stopped talking.

Compared with Andrew, who was hesitant, the five mercenaries on the opposite side were even more hesitant. It is clear that there is something wrong with this task, and the biggest problem is the high bounty. Usually the bounty is high, either difficult or risky. This task doesn't sound like a big one, but it's definitely risky.

Any mercenary could hear it.

However, the bounty is high enough. Although the deposit is also high, it is generally required unless it is a racing mission. And in Lin LΓΆpes, it is extremely rare for tasks with bounties higher than 1,000 gold coins, let alone tasks that are higher than 2,000 gold coins, and may even reach 7,000 gold coins?

Obviously, this is big business.

After thinking about it for a while, Kevin asked, "We're willing to take on this mission, but can we ask for a different team?"

"This combination is considered and you can only choose to accept it or not to accept it. Unless the Blood Elves and Dragon Mercenaries decide to quit, we won't be arranging a new partner for you. Or you can opt out, and we'll arrange a new partner for the Blood Elves and Dragon Mercenaries. With that, Hannah glanced at both sides, smiled, and said, "Do any of you want to quit?"

The two sides just looked at each other silently, stalemate. Or rather, Andrew looked at the five mercenaries opposite, because Christina was not involved the whole time. Just sat quietly on the side, with her head down, her hands clutching the hem of her skirt tighter and tighter, like a little girl who had made a mistake.

Andrew's gaze went back and forth between Christina and the other party, and after a while, Andrew laughed slowly and replied softly, "We took it." You're quitting?"

"No, we took it too. Kevin replied softly with a smile.
