Feyder's words surprised Fett, Russell loved André so much that it was impossible for his adopted son, who had suffered great pain, to act alone. After completing the mission in the Winter Country, Feder plans to take the time to return to the Rock Mercenary Group - even if he is ashamed, Fed will eventually have to face Russell, the shield that has not yet played any role should be returned, and he has spent two years still unable to exert the power of the life weapon, and the person who does not deserve it is himself.

According to the original plan, Fei De and his party only need to walk east for two more days to reach the base camp of the Marquis of Ampvo, but Fei De, like some independent mercenaries, suddenly walked to a large town southwest of the foreign hub city, for no other reason, including the Broken Boots Mercenary Group, the White Fox Mercenary Group and the Calder Mercenary Group, and the mercenary groups that had not yet entered the Ocean Hub City suddenly gathered in that town. The mercenaries who were still watching the direction of the wind certainly knew that this was a guide, and as for what it was about, they could only follow behind like a flock of sheep and see.

There are not too many rules, anyone who claims to be a mercenary is allowed to enter the town, and there are also officials of the Winter Kingdom in the town, these officials and some mercenary captains are brothers, but the dilapidated town and the holes in the clothes of the Winter Country officials all suggest that the Winter people have been weak for a long time.

"Patrick, you go to the casino and tavern to find out, Noor, you ask the townspeople for news, and Ayana and I will go our separate ways now, and meet at the 'pinewood' inn at this time tomorrow. ”

"Yes. ”

Fei De and AYANA join a mercenary party in the evening as independent mercenaries to avoid suspicion, and Ayana plays the role of Fidel's wife, playing a very familiar silent role.

"We are husband and wife, mercenaries from the Duchy of Mageni, and this is the entrance fee. "Fed paid a hefty entrance fee to the gatekeepers.

"Let's go inside. The mercenary guarding the door stared at Ayana's face, and the handsome girl had a cold expression, as if she was not interested in anyone.

"Miss Maevie is not happy in the Heavenly Spirit, right?" Ayana asked, but her tone didn't seem to have any guilt, "After all, Miss Maev is ......"

"It's someone who could have been my wife," Fielder noted the inside of the auditorium, where the stove and thick-robed mercenaries were scattered all over the place, and there was little decoration in the room, "and at this moment, you are my wife." Fidel noticed some ambiguity in the words he had just blurted out, and when he looked at Ayana, he saw that Ayana was already clenching his arms and silently leaning his face on his shoulder.

Most of the mercenaries who can afford the entrance fee are independent mercenaries, and they are desperate for their lives to get important information. Mr. and Mrs. Fide chatted with another mercenary couple, who were in their forties from the border between the Winter Kingdom and the Eastern Oguna Empire.

"Heavenly Father...... I am so saddened by the disappearance of your homeland," the male mercenary with a ring of beard furrowed his brows when he heard that Fide and Ayana were from the Duchy of Mageni, "It's a good thing that you are so young that you can rebuild your home somewhere else." His mercenary wife expressed similar sympathy, and Fide and Ayana glanced at each other, they didn't expect the Winterlanders to be so sympathetic.

Ayana: "The place where you are has also been destroyed by the war. ”

"Although it is our hometown, we are mercenaries and have long been accustomed to living anywhere on the mainland...... "The talkative male mercenary is like the fruit seller in Feide's hometown, without the slightest temperament of a mercenary, while his wife is like a weaver, it is hard to imagine that they are in a mercenary party.

Without anyone noticing Fid and Ayana, a burly man in a heavy plain white cloak walked out from behind the hall. Glancing at the mercenaries present, he walked straight to the four chairs set up above the auditorium and sat down in the middle.

The middle-aged mercenary couple and the other mercenaries stopped talking, as if waiting for punishment. Fei De looked at the man carefully, the other party's closed eyes did not show much emotion, the hands crossed on his chest looked a little impatient, the pure white cloak was woven from fox fur, this cloak looked like a noblewoman's private collection, a strong man wore it to add a bit of femininity.

"That's the leader of the White Fox Mercenary Regiment. Ayana whispered to Fidel.

"How do you know?"

"On the way back, I saw that their men were buying hides. AYANA whispered. The reason why this mercenary group is called the White Fox Mercenary Group is because their leader, Russell, raises a large group of foxes and takes care of them as if they were his own children, but other animals are not so lucky. ”

"What father would make his child's fur into a coat and a cape?"

"Legend has it that he only picks out dead white foxes to make clothes to remember them forever......" Ayana spoke, as Russell suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Ayana.

Feder nodded, it had been ten minutes since Russell took his seat, and no one dared to move except for the candle flame on the wall that was swaying slightly, which was very inconsistent with the mercenary's behavior. It didn't take long for the leader of Calder Mercenary Regiment and the leader of the Broken Boots Mercenary Regiment to appear together, Calder was a man with a waist as thick as a tree, and he needed the support of his subordinates to sit firmly in his chair. The leader of the Broken Boots Mercenary Regiment was a little boy with slightly curly hair, he was about ten years old, and there was a middle-aged woman beside him who looked very similar to him, who was supposed to be his mother. The two mercenaries sat on the two chairs on the side, leaving a middle chair empty.

"Why are you pretending to be a regular mercenary when you're all here?" Russell said suddenly, looking at Fidel and whispering.

Everyone else was startled, only the mercenary couple reacted the fastest, the middle-aged man had already put his hand on the hilt of the sword, the kind and gentle look on his face just now disappeared, and the eyes that looked at Fei De also became gloomy. The other mercenaries seemed to realize something, and drew their blades one after another.

The boy leader of the Broken Boots Mercenary Corps looked timidly at his mother, who put her arms around his little head and whispered a few words. But in the few seconds, Ayana had already drawn her wooden bow and mounted an arrow before everyone could react, aiming it at Russell.

"I mean...... Captain Fidel, wouldn't you like to take a seat?" Russell stretched out his finger from his thick sleeve and pointed to the empty seat next to him, "This is a seat specially reserved for you, and it is impossible for a big man with a head and a face like you to stand with those ordinary mercenaries." It was too late for the middle-aged man to retract his reaction, and no matter how much he pretended, Fidel and Ayana saw through the man's true colors.

Fei De hesitated for no more than two seconds, leaving Ayana where she was and walking straight to the empty seat. The boy leader of the Broken Boots Mercenary Regiment seemed to be afraid of Fed, and only dared to hold his mother's hand tightly.

"Greetings to Captain Field, this is Lord Field, the leader of the famous Potato Mercenary Regiment. The boy's mother straightened her back and said.

The boy looked at Fidel timidly, "I...... I...... I'm Luigi, the current head of the Broken Boots Mercenary Regiment......" The boy put on a serious expression as much as he could, but after introducing himself, he threw himself into his mother's arms again and began to sob. The cowardly boy reminds Fid of the Duke of Yannes, who eventually lost everything to his cowardice.

"Well, Captain Luigi's father just died in battle, and he is still young, so for the time being, I will take care of Luigi, and the Broken Boots Mercenary Group will also act with our White Fox Mercenary Group. Russell stood up, took the boy in his arms, and sat down, and the chair that had been sat by the boy's leader was dragged away by Russell's men, leaving only the frightened woman in her heart. Fei De was not surprised by the annexation between the two mercenary groups, after all, mercenaries are a group of people who gather together for money, not a kingdom of inheritance, and the law of the jungle is the law of mercenaries.

A mercenary suddenly shouted, "The Potato Mercenary Regiment is not the Native Mercenary Regiment of the Winter Country, why are they sitting there?!" and some mercenaries echoed.

Russell replied while touching Luigi's hair, "Have you forgotten what we're here for today?"

"To discuss how to unite all the mercenaries of the Winter Kingdom. ”

"In order to be on the same front. ”

"For the sake of ...... In order to make more money and protect the homeland!"

Fei De heard scattered responses, the equipment of the local mercenaries in the Winter Kingdom was far inferior to the mercenaries in the Three Duchyes, but he didn't expect that even the ideas were quite backward, most of the mercenaries who didn't shout looked confused, and they paid the entrance fee to find their way.

Russell showed a sly smile: "That's right, these are our goals, but the key problem is that we need a direction, after unifying the direction, with our talented and powerful mercenary group here, we will definitely not let you go home empty-handed." I have already spoken to Chief Calder about this, and rest assured, we will speak to the Marquis on your behalf...... Moreover, now that we have more Captain Fed, I believe that those mercenaries who came to the Winter Country in search of opportunities will also become our friends. Russell's words stopped the mercenary in the seat, and the big fat mercenary Calder also nodded with a dull expression.

"I didn't promise to join anyone," Feder realized he was being used, but it wasn't that easy to get out, "but let me listen to your plans, I'll think about it." ”

Russell took the opportunity to say: "Captain Fede is famous, and we have you to join us. As long as we join forces, then we can form a three-legged alliance with the Mercenary Guild and the Winter King's new legion!"

It's naïve. Fide thought to himself.

"...... in strength"

Russell immediately accosted: "Don't worry, Captain Fidel, we still have strong foreign aid." ”
