65. Acceptance

The farmer still had a little hope, but when he looked at Ste'an, the young man with fine skin and tender meat, he still shook his head and sighed: " It's useless, our village once scraped together 500 gold, invited a mercenary group of 300 people, but the mercenary group was seriously injured and wounded, and finally returned the money to us, and ran away in a panic, your mercenary group of dozens of people, must be even more hopeless, we sent people to ask for help from the city of Kala, but there was no news for more than ten days, we had to wait a few more days, if no one came to the city, we could only move the village. ”

It turns out that other mercenary groups have already come to this village, and how difficult it must be for a team of three hundred people to complete the task.

Shi Tai'an was a little curious, so he asked with a solemn expression: "I don't know what the name of that mercenary group is, what trouble is your village going through?"

The farmer thought pessimistically in his heart, he didn't expect these mercenary groups anyway, and it didn't hurt to talk to him: "They are called the Saiyan mercenary group, and the number was originally more than three hundred, and on the night they escaped, there were less than a hundred left...... I'll tell you all that our village is haunted!"

Shaman Ilig's face changed slightly: "Haunted?"

The other farmer nodded: " Yes, two months ago, the cattle in our village began to disappear mysteriously, at first I thought it was taken away by the wild beasts in the mountains, and then more and more animals disappeared, but there was no trace of any wild beasts at the scene, everyone realized that something was wrong, and began to pay attention to the surrounding villages, but then even the villagers in charge of patrolling did not return all night, only one villager with martial arts skills escaped the catastrophe, I heard him say that when he was patrolling, he suddenly felt cold, and his body became uncontrollable, fortunately he still has a little spiritual power to protect the body, can fight against the cold, one person and one gas for a long time, and finally collapsed to the ground due to his physical exhaustion, no longer able to move, can only watch the other villagers patrolling together with eyes staggering towards the mountain behind the village, so that they have no response for most of the day, the village elders say that they are possessed by evil spirits, so this is why this is the case. ”

Steian, Ilig and Claude listened very carefully, and as soon as the farmer finished speaking, Ilig and Claude's faces changed at the same time!

Claude turned his head and whispered to Jiajing: "This is not a haunting, but a magician from the spiritual department is playing ghosts!"

Jiajing was puzzled, "Spiritual magician?".

There was a hint of jealousy in Claude's eyes: "Well, the spirit system belongs to special magic, and is good at manipulating other people's minds, and those farmers are controlled by the spirit magic bewitchment, if the old man I guess correctly, this should be a fifth-level spirit magic, that is to say, this spirit magician, at least a high-level magician, must not be underestimated! As long as we meet the farmer who has resisted spiritual magic, according to his spiritual power level, we can roughly calculate the true level of that spiritual magician, as well as his casting distance." ”

Ilig has been following the wolf howl for a long time to do tasks, and his knowledge is quite extensive, so he also leaned into Steian's ear and whispered: "Commander, this task is very tricky!"

When the farmer saw that an embarrassed expression began to appear on Steian's face, he must not have the courage to wade into this troubled water, so he came to his stomach and simply hung his appetite: "We are willing to pay a thousand gold coins, as long as you solve the problem for us, the thousand gold will all belong to you! This is the money that all the villagers have gathered, which is already our limit, after all, our entire village, there are only less than a thousand people in total." ”

For these ordinary farmers, it is already very reluctant to pay one gold per person, according to the calculation of six people in a household, that is to say, each household has to take out six gold coins, which is equivalent to the expenses of a whole year for a family.

Although Ilig seems to be kind, he is not like an ordinary shaman, after all, that kind of compassionate shaman cannot survive in this world of the jungle.

He saw Steian's slightly shaken eyes, so he reached over and tugged at his sleeve: "Commander, we have received the commission from the Viscount of the Athena Empire, if we take on the task of this village again, I am afraid it will be ......"

Jiajing walked out of the car and said with a confident smile: "The bounty for this task is really not low, Master Yilig don't have to worry, we all have the ability to protect ourselves." I'd love to see what's going on in the back mountains. ”

Shi Tai'an also smiled and said: "Okay! Since Lord Viscount has no opinion, I also want to see what kind of characters are hidden in the back mountain, and see if he can bewitch me, a silver warrior!"

Claude and Marco also got out of the car together, and when they heard Steian say this, they kindly reminded him: "Let's go see the farmer first, the silver warrior is not afraid of demagogy, but not everyone in the wolf howl mercenary group is as powerful as the leader." ”

Shi Tai'an was given a head-on injection of tranquilizer, and then he retracted his proud posture just now, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you Master Claude for your advice!"

Seeing that Jiajing accepted the task so simply, and that Captain Ste'an was determined to do so, he just sighed helplessly, and then turned his head and asked the farmer: "I wonder where your peasant lady who is not missing is? ”

Since the regimental commander has decided to take on the mission, he has to do his duty to assist the regimental commander Steian to complete the task.

The two peasants originally wanted to play tricks on this small mercenary group, thinking that they would move from village to village in a short time anyway, and they wanted to make fun of their cowardice and refusal to make fun of them.

Who would have thought that they would agree so easily, much happier than the original 300-strong mercenary group!

Although they didn't believe that their small team could complete the task, the two farmers still held the mentality that a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, and their spirits lifted slightly, and they hugged their fists at Yilig and said, "It's in the village, everyone, please come with me!"

Together with the six Jiajing people, a group of forty-three people followed the two farmers into the village.

As soon as the people of the village heard that another mercenary group accepted the task of the village, they were surprised and delighted, look at this group of people, the number is scarce, far less than the number of the mercenary group last time, but the overall momentum of the team is quite good, and the steps are neat, it can be seen that they are disciplined and well-trained, not comparable to the big mercenary group last time, and many villagers who were about to blurt out the cool words quickly swallowed back hard.

Although the farmer has not seen much of the world after years of farming, he still has more or less human ability.

The three elders of the village, who were already in their fifties, hurried over and personally met with Shi Tai'an and Elige, and after placing the members of the mercenary group, he took them to meet the farmer who was not missing.

Jiajing and Claude followed, and the Punal brothers followed closely behind Jiajing.

The majestic body of the Bill warrior also gave the three elders a lot of confidence.

In those long years, they had also heard about the power of the Kasia Bill warriors, which would be a secret surprise, and they didn't know that these two Kasia warriors were Jiajing's side guards, and they did not belong to the Wolf Howl Mercenary Regiment.
