Chapter 251: Pingshui Meets
Su Wen was finally treated as a guest.
It was the second brother of the three half-werewolf brothers who recognized him, which made Su Wen feel very ashamed for a while - he had been in contact with these three half-werewolves who looked almost exactly the same for so long in Tridis, because the eldest brother James was talking to him, and the second and third brothers were only responsible for smoking and laughing, so he didn't even know what the names of the other two half-werewolves werewd.
"Do you name them? Woo, they're also called James, the tradition of half-werewolves is that all siblings have one name, you don't know?" James laughed excitedly in front of the makeshift tent.
"Who would know about this!"
Su Wen couldn't complain, and then asked: "Then again, it's only been more than three months since we were separated in Hongfeng Town, why did you suddenly come to the Southern Continent?"
"Woo woo woo, I also want to ask you as it is, our master of magic, shouldn't you be in St. Peter's Academy right now. ”
"I'm because ...... Forget it, it's hard to say, you just treat me as a temporary trip, and I should go back after a while. But if I'm not mistaken, you should be in Zuolunlan City now, eating with some black beast mercenary group, why don't you do it now?"
"Who said not to do it, isn't this the Black Beast Mercenary Group. Whew, the one you saw just now is the regimental leader. ”
“?!”
Su Wen was stunned and looked back at the middle-aged strong man who was still doing his duty, and now even from a few dozen meters away, he could vaguely see a bit of perseverance and reliability.
"It's a lot worse than what I remembered. ”
"Why, you've seen our head before?"
"Ahem, no, no. ”
"How can you have an impression? Oh, I know, our head of the regiment made a splash in Duolun a while ago, and it is because of this that we can't get along and run to Nanda Road to find business, you must have heard of it. Speaking of which, you and the head of the regiment must have a lot of common topics. ”
"I haven't heard of him, but I guess it's not a good thing. ”
James cleared his throat, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could make a sound, a large, heavy, rough palm appeared on his shoulder, and he held back the following words.
"Little cub, didn't I say don't go around arranging me?"
I saw that the mercenary group leader who was still dozens of meters behind Su Wen a few seconds ago had already appeared behind James at some point, and Su Wen didn't even notice when he passed by him. Su Wen squinted, this kind of body technique should not be able to be performed by a middle-level knight, referring to the difference between him and other mercenaries when they met the magician, it is basically certain that this guy's real strength should be far from being as simple as the middle-level knight on the surface.
After drinking James, the strong knight saluted Su Wen.
"I'm Walter, the former leader of the Black Beast Mercenary Regiment, I didn't know you knew these three guys before, how offensive I am, I hope to bear with me. ”
"It's a blessing. ”
Su Wen also expressed his politeness, speaking of which, when he was recuperating in Red Maple Town, he still used the house under the name of the Black Beast Mercenary Group, and the head of the regiment who had never met him was actually kind to him, and he was never stingy with his kindness to the friendly creature Su Wen. But at the same time, he also noticed that the leader named Volcker had a somewhat unnatural expression when he said the name of the Black Beast Mercenary Group.
Of course, he won't ask much about this, just as he didn't plan to explain to James in detail why he came to the Southern Continent, everyone has their own things that they don't want others to know, don't add to the boring.
But James, the big mouth, launched the assist.
"Wow, Su Wen, don't you want to know why it's the 'Former Black Beast Mercenary Group'?"
I don't want to, and looking at the eyes of your regiment leader, you probably have to suffer.
However, Walter didn't immediately send out the bitterness, he just turned his head and shouted at the half-werewolf: "James, get out of the way!" and then watched the latter run away with a strange smile, leaving himself and Su Wen with big eyes and small eyes.
The atmosphere is a little awkward.
"Ahem, it's not a secret thing, it's just that some things have happened, the black beast mercenary group in Duolun has been disbanded, and those members who have followed for many years have dispersed, and only these three half-werewolves who are not successful are willing to follow me. Mr. Su Wen, the other members you see now are all newcomers who have just joined the New Black Beast Mercenary Group, alas, the quality is not comparable to before, and it will take a long time to run-in. ”
So I didn't even ask anything, and I said it all.
But since Walter was willing to speak, there was no need for Su Wen to cover his ears and not listen, he politely sympathized: "I'm sorry for this, no matter what happens, please cheer up." ”
Just click to the end, there is no need to follow the meaning to ask.
Walter apparently didn't want to dwell on the topic either, and he quickly got to the point of what was at hand.
"Mr. Suwen is going to Mtase City?"
"That's right. ”
This topic was what Su Wen liked to see, and he then asked, "Does Captain Walter know about it?"
"To be honest, this is also my first time in Mtase, so I can say that I know very little about it. But I have an old friend who lives there for many years, and this time I took up the task of escorting the caravan, and I actually went there to join him, and the city of Mtase, though a little chaotic, was close to the barren land, which was a paradise for adventurers, and was connected to several major transportation routes, and the trade industry was also very prosperous. This kind of place may not be suitable for civilians who want to live a comfortable life, but it is a good place for mercenaries like us who are in a precarious situation. ”
Su Wen nodded, isn't it, in Tridis, where order is orderly, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, the mercenaries can only do the work of farmers, and most of them have even wielded their swords. And the more chaotic the place, the mercenary industry will really develop, because there are too many things that need them to do, whether it is killing people and goods, or escorting and protecting, the more intense the conflict, the more active they are.
For example, the scene at the moment.
"That being said, the security situation in the Old Rhine is too ...... It's worrying. Walter changed his words, "We came from the Eastern Continent, and it was the third day since we entered the wasteland, and we witnessed seven or eight battles along the way, and just the thieves we encountered, counting today, this is the second time, which is something that the Duolun Empire does not dare to imagine at all." It's hard to imagine what the city of Mtase would be like in the heart of this wasteland, and some people say it's a gathering place for villains, but I think it's very likely. ”
In this regard, Su Wen just smiled and said: "The bandits have been rampant for hundreds of years, but they have not been effectively governed from the surrounding empires and the city of Mtase, which is enough to explain a lot of things. ”
"Yes, it is rumored that the consul of Mtase City is the greatest bandit leader. ”
Of course, Su Wen would not express an opinion on this, he just snorted and continued to chat with Walter about some more detailed details about Mtase City, which can be regarded as gathering intelligence.
Although he claimed to know very little, since he was going to defect here, he naturally did much more homework than Su Wen's impromptu idea, and after some exchanges, at least he knew the general situation on the surface of Mtase City.
This city with a history of hundreds of years can be regarded as ancient - there are many small countries that have been born and destroyed for decades or even decades, and the great thing about it is that the country where it is located, in the long history of hundreds of years, has already changed from the Duchy of Marda to the Duchy of Assatara, and from the Duchy of Assara to the Nandoromi Empire, but the city itself has not moved. No matter how the outside world changes, it has always stood here as the heart of the Old Rhine Heath and has never changed.
The city of Mthase can be seen as a small, self-governing country with a variety of factions and factions, with those in charge of the highest power called consuls, and no fixed rotation time. But once there was a rotation, it meant that there was already a bloody storm in the city, and Walter painted a vivid picture of the wild history of factional battles and bloodshed in Mthase City from nowhere, from the slashing of people in the street to the bloody massacre in front of the evidence hall, which depicted the city as a primeval forest full of the jungle.
Su Wen looked at his eyebrows, and said in his heart that this person was just worried, but in fact he seemed to yearn for it, and this time he went to Mtase City with the mentality of breaking out of his career, but he was not loyal and honest on the surface.
But no matter how much you say, after all, it is a passerby who meets in Pingshui, and Su Wen's trip to Mtase City this time is not the ultimate goal. As the first stop in the Southern Continent, he only planned to stay there for a few days to collect intelligence and make preparations, and then he was going to the high-energy locations pointed out by the pit father system to collect energy, and he didn't plan to live for as long as the person in front of him, so it was none of his business what Walter wanted to do. As for the three James brothers, Su Wen has a good impression, although these three people are chickens and dogs, they can see that they are very righteous, but it is a pity that they ......
After all, it's not all the way.
Therefore, after chatting for more than ten minutes, everything that should be talked about was almost finished, and when Wattle's adjutant Keane came to report to him the battle losses, Su Wen offered his farewell.
"Is Mr. Suwen leaving, and since we are on the same footing, why not go to the city of Mthase together, my friend is very hospitable, and I am sure he will be very pleased to see you coming. ”
Faced with Walter's seemingly sincere retention, Su Wen insisted on refusing.
"Goodbye then, to Walter City, and welcome to the Mercenary Guild at any time. ”
"No problem. ”
Su Wen agreed, but in fact he did not have this plan.
