Volume 3: The Vortex of Strife Chapter 398: The Post-Mercenary Era (I)

The black lines of the woman's face are simple and beautiful, but the tears in the corners of her eyes and cheeks make people feel a hint of sadness - this is the first feeling that Emily's Crying Mercenary Regiment flag gives people. No one would think that this is a flag, it looks more like a painting of art, a sketch full of feelings.

Reese and Myra stopped, and like the other mercenary leaders, they turned their attention to Emily's representatives of the Weeping Mercenary Regiment.

Dressed in high leather boots, dressed in simple and dignified clothes, and with his hair neatly combed, Constable walked at the front of the flag. He didn't have a sword around his waist, but a leather bag that contained maps and a long tubular object.

"Constable, you're in Red Bean City... Do you remember that you were a mercenary belonging to the Mercenary Guild?" Reese pushed the drunken Birrell to Myra, and she took the initiative to walk towards the burly Constable.

"It's true that I couldn't explain the situation to the elders about Sunrise Plateau because of some important things, but this meeting is the best opportunity, and I don't want the misunderstanding to continue to grow and get so big that it can't be resolved. ”

Reese snorted coldly, "Constable, I don't have any opinion about you personally, as long as the elder grows up and he forgives you for your previous mistakes, we can still continue to be friends, it doesn't matter if you want to be the king on your own or if you want to do something." ”

Constable was overjoyed, and he just nodded lightly and left, continuing to walk deeper into the hall with his men. It was the first time that Fei De and the others had seen this mercenary who belonged to the mercenary guild, but often wandered away from the guild. It is said that Emily's weeping mercenary group has been away from the mainland for nearly six years, and after arriving at the Sunrise Plateau, which belongs to the New World, it no longer accepts the instructions of the Mercenary Guild, and even the people sent by the Mercenary Guild to the Sunrise Plateau have returned in vain, making people deeply suspect that this mercenary leader has his own huge ambitions.

Everyone thought that the establishment of the Sunrise Alliance was the product of Constable's ambitions, but he returned to the mainland and participated in the grand gathering held by the Mercenary Guild, and no one knew what his purpose was.

"Leader, it seems that all the people of the Mercenary Guild have gathered, maybe the deputy head of Malven who used to fight with you will also appear. Lukka whispered.

"Phyll's look like this must be hard to recognize, right?" Patrick pushed his mask, which covered his nose and mouth.

Fei De is not worried about being recognized, the most important thing he needs to watch out for now is the young Mustang who brought them into this place, the other party must have something to hide from him, but it is impossible to get out of here now, he can only adapt to the situation.

Over the next three hours, the various invited mercenary groups began to enter the main venue. The banner of His Majesty's Knight Mercenary Regiment did not appear on the scene, and the same was true of the most mysterious funeral mercenary group. As a native of the Kingdom of Salins, Fei De has always been very strange, obviously the funeral mercenary group is one of the nine mercenary groups, but this mercenary group is extremely low-key, hiding in the peaceful and stable Kingdom of Salins, the southwesternmost part of the continent. It stands to reason that this should not be the place that the mercenaries will choose, where there is no strife and naturally there is no profit from strife.

The mercenary guild, which has become the eight mercenary groups, is still quite appealing, and the famous mercenary groups from all over the mainland have sent people, but most of the people they sent are only squad leaders, let alone group leaders, and even the squadron leaders have never appeared. The local mercenary groups were all present, especially the ones located in the Three Duchies.

A large platform was placed in the center of the venue, and chairs were placed around the platform, each chair belonged to a mercenary leader, and there were nearly a hundred chairs present. Mustang sat down in a chair that was relatively far back, while Feld and the others stood a short distance behind the chair.

The people sitting closest to the high platform were the six captains - Orlando, Reese, Constable, Toya, the new leader of the Holy Spirit Mercenary Regiment, Gauss, and the drunken Birrell. And some of the leaders that Phyd was familiar with also appeared on the pile of chairs, including Gaisin, the leader of the One-Eared Mercenary Regiment of Free City, Charlie, the leader of the first-class mercenary regiment who once fought side by side with Phyll, and Chavez, the leader of the Black Hook Mercenary Regiment from the Principality of Majini.

The mercenaries standing behind Felder were all whispering, their focus on Constable, Gauss, and the guildmaster who had not yet appeared. Among them, Gauss, who succeeded the dead Pillar Priest as the leader of the Holy Spirit Mercenary Regiment, is the most remarkable, and the guy with his face completely covered has two arms, and he is definitely not the Pillar Priest pretending.

"I've heard that the Pillar Priest has been devoured by his own magic..."

"I've heard that a real magician killed him, and that real magician is rumored to be one of the three heirs of the old mage. ”

"Isn't Goliath the only one of the three mage heirs alive? That guy called 'Cat's Eye'?"

"Who knows, in my opinion, anything that is not magical is fake, anyway, I didn't see the magic of Saint Golia in the Battle of Doret, so I don't believe it. ”

The mercenaries' conversations, combined with Toto's description of Simos the Cat's Eye, led Fide to believe that Simos had left the city of Dulogis to find the Pillar Priest. Feder doesn't know what the feud between Heimos and the Pillar Priest is, but the Pillar Priest is a notorious user of sorcery, and his subordinates are some annoying living dead, and maybe it was really Himos who "helped" him and completed the task Russell had assigned.

Just as Fidel looked at Gauss's back and thought about the death of the Pillar Priest, Orlando, the leader of the American Young Mercenary Regiment, suddenly stood up.

"Calm down!"

All the mercenaries stopped talking, and Orlando slowly walked up to the middle platform.

Orlando cleared his throat, "The Lord isn't sure when he'll be there yet, and before he arrives, I have to explain one thing to all the mercenaries who are here at this party... This gathering of 'Mercenary Future' will never allow any kind of mutual attack, if we find out that a mercenary intends to settle a personal vendetta here, then the person who took the initiative will be regarded as an enemy by the entire mercenary guild, and we will not hesitate to eradicate the troublemakers. ”

One of the mercenaries shouted loudly, "What about leaving the venue?"

"No, within these three days, the inside and outside of Red Bean City will be under the jurisdiction of our guild, and anyone who dares to violate the rules I just said will be punished. Orlando's words disgusted some mercenaries, but Orlando has the support of the mercenary guild, so the mercenaries who are usually used to freedom can only accept it. After all, some mercenaries have already targeted mercenaries who have personal grudges with them, and plan to find an opportunity to attack in Chidou City.

One of the mercenary leaders suddenly asked loudly: "I heard that your mercenary guild has accepted the wheel mercenary group, and their leader Floron is my friend, but he has not been heard from since he set off to the Sunrise Plateau!"

"Pheloron?" Orlando glanced at Constable, who sat upright, as if he wasn't about to explain, "I don't know, but since I haven't received an invitation from the Elder, it means that he and his mercenary group no longer exist." ”

As soon as Orlando finished speaking, the mercenaries were in an uproar. Orlando and Reese both know very well that the Wheel Mercenary Group is a mercenary group personally recruited by the guild leader. However, Floren, who was sent to ask Constable for his sin, did not appear, but Constable appeared here, and Orlando and the others had doubts in their hearts, and no one knew what the purpose of the Elder would be.

The mercenary leader continued to ask loudly, "Since the guild leader doesn't know when it will arrive, can you please introduce the Orlando leader first?"

"Yes, we've all been invited here, and we can't bring our subordinates with us!

"We all trust the Mercenary Guild, but we also want the Guild to trust us and tell us about your plans!"

As soon as Fidel heard it, it became clear that the letter that had been thrown out of Orlando was not the same. The invitation letter I received clearly stated that this gathering was for the mercenary guild to expand its power, and it was written that it was necessary to select a suitable mercenary group as a supplement, and there were another twenty-seven mercenary groups as subordinate mercenary groups to join the mercenary guild. However, Fei De also noticed that some of the group leaders were very calm, and those mercenaries may have received similar letters to Fei De, and they are the ones that the Mercenary Guild values.

At this moment, a familiar figure walked up to the empty chair, and Octavia could recognize it as Levier just by looking at his back. The appearance of Levier did not surprise Fidel, and to Fidel's surprise, the people of the Moon Shield Mercenary Regiment also appeared.

Fidel only saw the other party's side face, but there was absolutely nothing wrong with that face, it was indeed Julian. Originally, Fei De had almost forgotten his experience in the Moon Shield Mercenary Group, but Julian's face immediately evoked Field's memories - the mutiny initiated by Alain and Julian caused the Moon Shield Mercenary Group to suffer a huge blow. The Moon Shield Mercenary Regiment, which had won a big victory, was completely different because of internal divisions, and Fei De also lost everything in the Moon Shield Mercenary Group, and Andre also lost a lot. Images of the past flooded back into Fidd's mind, but he quickly came back to his senses, and by the time Julian looked back, he was already standing behind Lukka and Octavia.

Fei De still remembered that the Republic of Marveil was not touched by the forces of the Mercenary Guild, but he didn't expect that the Moon Shield Mercenary Group also sent people, and it was Julian, Alain's right-hand man. It seems that under the leadership of Alain, the Moon Shield Mercenary Group will not stick to its beliefs that are different from ordinary mercenaries as it did at the beginning.

Orlando waited until the mercenaries stopped asking questions before replying, "The Mercenaries Guild intends to have all the mercenaries join us, and as mercenaries, we may need a common goal to unite in the coming post-mercenary era." ”
