Marcus muttered, "No, are we really going to get rid of the plants?

Fyld interrupted him and said to Ernest, "Is there anything else that needs attention?"

"No, you just need to get rid of the attacking plants within the time limit," the snob next to him stopped talking, but Ernest didn't give him a chance to speak, "You go to the address written in this mission announcement to find an employer, he will point out the mission objectives, and if the mission is completed, remember to come back here." With that, he asked the snob to follow him back to work at the counter.

The snob whispered as he followed Ernest, "But they haven't registered yet."

"Let's wait for them to come back, it's only a mercenary group of fourteen people, hum. Ernest whispered in response to the snob, who was standing behind him that they didn't hear.

"I still don't understand why I took on this task," Marcus said, scratching his orange hair with one hand.

"Don't talk about it, the deputy head must have his own ideas about this decision, let's get out of here first. ”

Originally, he planned to go to the mercenary market to learn about recruiting mercenaries after leaving the mercenary house, but now that Fei De has accepted this task that "does not require a lot of manpower", it seems that the matter of recruiting new soldiers can be put aside for the time being.

Keth had been reading the mission announcement, and Greif reminded, "Sister, you don't want to go this time, anyway, the military prison doesn't need to carry out the mission." ”

"No, no, I haven't seen a plant that eats small animals, how can I not go and see it?" At the beginning, she thought that the military supervision was a job where she could often stay with the regiment commander and deputy regiment commander, but she didn't expect that the logistics affairs would be complicated and cumbersome, and she really didn't expect that she would become alone in the rear to deal with things, while her partners went outside to do tasks.

Feder didn't say anything to stop him, now all he thought about was the carnivorous plants. It stands to reason that even the relatively huge carnivorous flowers have never heard of the need to send out mercenaries, ordinary farmers and hunters only need to bring a torch to burn those plants hiding in the ground, this time the reward of 1,500 gold coins is really a bit surprisingly high, you must know that the initial capital of their potato mercenary group is only 4,000 gold coins, so this task must be won.

"If it's just the carnivorous flower that I know, it shouldn't be dangerous, let's go back and inform them first. With that, Feder and the three of them went back to their rented house.

"Is it a plant that attacks people? whatever! Anyway, my golden axe never asks what it is going to cut!" Matthews has long been ready to go, he has not fought anyone for a long time, and his hands are itching, and he wants to participate in the civil war of the Oguna Empire immediately.

"But will those plants that attack people eat people? Since sheep and pigs are eaten," Captain Bowen expressed a little worry after listening to Field's introduction of the carnivorous flower. Although he appeared to have short hands, there was no reason for a big man to be afraid of plants.

"Anyway, we'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”

Early the next morning, everyone was ready to set off for the mission site in the west of the Holy Light City. This time it was all dispatched, and fourteen people participated in this mission together, which also looked very strange, a mercenary group called Potato, all of whom were mercenaries with official positions, and Fei De himself thought it was incredible.

The target location in the west of the city is ten kilometers away from the City of Light, and most of the places along the way are farms, which are the main source of food reserves in the Papal States, and people of the Knights of the Church can be seen patrolling the main passages near the City of Light.

As we approached the target, there were apparently fewer people living nearby, and the terrain had changed from plains to woods.

An old farmer sits on top of a ploughing ox, blocking a sign at a three-way intersection, and the old farmer's face is full of worry. Avi jumped off the "king", and he was the only one of the fourteen on horseback. He walked over to the other party with the mission announcement and asked how to get to the target location of the mission. The old farmer saw that Fei De and his party were all holding all kinds of weapons, and most of them were burly and tall, and immediately said that he was the employer.

He came down from the ploughing ox and said, "You are the mercenaries who helped me?

Fei De didn't look like an employer who could afford fifteen hundred gold coins, but since he said that there was such an offensive plant in his place, it should be him.

The people followed the old peasant, and the old peasant also shouted on the road, "That plant will come out of the ground, and it can run so high," he jumped up, trying to make a gesture with both hands, "There is no way for the people in our village, those plants have secretly eaten our cattle and sheep, and even blatantly eaten a family's children, and they came out under their house!"

The group came to a small village with only five or six inhabitants, but they could not see a single one.

"That's it, we've all been evacuated, and no one knows if those plants will come out of the ground again, if I suddenly come out of the when I"

While the old farmer was chattering, Fed began to notice the situation in the small village. The dilapidated mud huts are filled with objects that only the poorest people can use, and there is not much space for enclosures, so it can be seen that there are not many livestock here. When Fidel saw this, he began to suspect that the other party was not a real employer, but just an old farmer who wanted to use their power to eliminate plants.

In addition to Fid, Greif and Van have also noticed this.

The old farmer saw that the leader of the group had stopped, and he hurriedly wanted to come over and take the other party's hand, but he was dodged by Field, "Why are you still stunned? Come with me, those plants are in that place, and they will move in the dirt!"

Fan crossed his hands in front of his chest and said coldly, "You're not an employer who hires mercenaries at all, are you?"

The old farmer was choked up and speechless, and Greif also said: "I have seen that street sign just now, it has obviously been turned, and the destination we are going to should be in the other direction, why are you deceiving us?"

The others also suddenly realized, but as the leader, Fidel had not yet expressed his position, and the brothers Nur and Marcus had the final say in Fidel's words.

The dark-skinned old peasant realized that his lie had been exposed, and he was about to burst into tears, but he did not say a word of rebuttal, but only gritted his teeth.

At this moment, everyone felt a tremor from more than ten meters away from the village, and this unusual vibration should have been caused by the plants that attacked people.

"Be on guard!" Marcus One-Eyed shouted to the others.

Fan Ze walked back leisurely, "Hey, I said you, we're not here to help this old liar, if it's too late to leave now, there's no need to waste our efforts here." ”

"Elder," Franklin chimed in, "yes, even if you help him, you won't be paid, right?"

But the champion fighter took out two swords and said, "Although I hate liars too, it may be too late to leave now." "He's ready to fight, it's the one he's learned over the years in the arena, he can defend and attack, but he's never faced an enemy other than a human.

Seeing that Fidel hadn't made a decision yet, Coss also tugged at his arm and said, "Potato!

As soon as the duke's daughter finished speaking, the old farmer, who was so excited that he couldn't speak, had already sprang out a black-green plant stem more than two meters high, the top of the stem was split into several petals, and in the center of the cracked part there was a sharp cone like the tip of a spear, but the cone was blood-red.

"Ahh

Ayana had already put an arrow on her short wooden bow and aimed it at the green stalk that was bursting out.

The green stem flew behind the old farmer, and a figure immediately rushed over, and slashed at the stem of the green stem plant with a sword, but only a little, and did not cut off the entire half-meter-thick stem. The blood-red cone immediately shrank into the plant, and the rest of it was slashed to the ground with a second swing of the sword.

The old peasant was already frightened and threw himself to the ground, but only then did he turn around and see the inconspicuous young man in the group of mercenaries standing next to the broken stem, and the knight's sword in the young man's hand was still trembling slightly.

"Hey, you idiot, who told you to be in the limelight?!" The big-nosed fan also saw clearly that it was Avi who ran out in an instant and saved the old farmer.

Some of them also immediately stepped forward to look at the green stem that had been cut off by the two swords, and found that there was a sand hole left there, and the skin of the stem was very rough, but the core part of it had disappeared, and it was probably the blood-red cone that had been retracted.

Avi was still standing behind the old peasant, holding the knight's sword in both hands, but the body of the sword shook with the trembling of his arm, and large beads of sweat fell from his face.

Avi was helped up by Greif, and she looked at the brave boy and then at Field, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Fei De didn't walk over, in fact, he just planned to use the "silence" at the last moment to block the attack of the greenstem plant, because then he could see the old farmer's actions at the most dangerous time, and he could also find the weakness of the greenstem plant, but Avi took the first step and saved the old farmer. Now it seems that this old farmer is indeed just an ordinary poor peasant, and if he continues to help him, he may not get any reward at all, but at least this is not a trap set by one person.

Fei De did not regret his cautious actions, because now he was not only Fei De, but also the deputy head of a mercenary group.
