Chapter Ninety-Five: The Demon Swamp

The Mercenary Guild, Cole's office.

"You get the idea. ”

A middle-aged man who looked slightly older than Cole was sitting across from Cole.

"The Mercenary Guild has its own considerations, I hope you can understand. I am also saddened by the death of your wife. ”

"I see, Vice President Niles. ”

During the battle of Norvi City, the Mercenary Guild did not come forward from beginning to end. Afterwards, in order to appease Cole's emotions, Niles, the vice president of the Mercenary Guild Association, came to Norvi City in person.

"Martin asked me to take him to say hello to you, at this time, it is difficult for him to come forward to meet you. ”

There are four vice-presidents of the Mercenary Guild, in addition to the neutral Niles, there is also a Martin vice-president, who is deeply disgusted by the evil deeds of the Holy See, and he is also a representative of the hard-liners in the mercenary guild.

"What about my position?"

"Martin's side is working hard, but for the time being, you can only continue to serve as the branch president of Norvi City. ”

"Well, I see, say hello to Mr. Martin for me. ”

After saying goodbye to Niles, Cole went to another conference room, where Weifeng and his party had been waiting for a long time.

"What kind of guy is it, why we've waited so long. Mino grumbled with a seemingly disgruntled look, looking at Cole with a somewhat evasive look.

Cole's eyes dimmed for a second, then asked Weifeng with a smile on his face.

"How's your body recovering?"

"It's all right. ”

"Who are these two?" Cole looked at the Qingning sister and brother, and couldn't help but be a little curious.

"It's our new friends, Qingning and Qingshi. Elsa explained, "They wanted to post a mercenary mission, so they came with us. ”

"Oh, what do you two want to post?" Cole leaned over and looked at Bluestone with interest.

"We're releasing an A-tier expedition. Qingshi said to Cole with a serious face.

"A-level missions? That's a lot of commissions. ”

Cole didn't think the siblings could come up with that much money.

"We have a lot of money!Sister, show him!" Qingshi, who felt that he was being underestimated, shouted unconvinced.

"That, we have 100 million gold coins here, it should be enough...... Qingning whispered.

In fact, they don't know how much it costs to post an A-level mission. 100,000,000,000 gold coins were only asked for according to the high priest's instructions.

According to the rules of the Mercenary Guild, a reward of 100 million gold coins is indeed enough to issue an A-level mercenary mission, but this is only the minimum reward. Generally, the reward for A-level tasks is about 300 million gold coins. The difficulty is relatively high, and it will even reach one billion gold coins.

Therefore, the price of 100 million gold coins is difficult to attract those mercenary groups with relatively strong strength.

Weifeng and Elsa exchanged glances, and felt more and more that the pair of siblings was a little strange.

"Well, enough is enough. So what tasks do you want to post? ”

"It's an expedition to the Demon Swamp, and we're looking for something. ”

"Uh, you can't be looking for the Nine Heavens Star Stick, are you?" Mino couldn't help but interject.

"How would you know!"

The siblings had a look of horror on their faces at the same time.

"It's really ......" Mino cupped his forehead, not knowing what to say.

Legend has it that during the Battle of the Black Moon, the Great Demon of the Demon Clan defeated the three Holy Feathers of the Holy Clan in the Demon Swamp, and finally fell here, and his weapon Nine Heavens Shattered Star Stick also sank into the swamp.

The Nine Heavens Shattered Star Stick is the treasure of the Demon Clan, and it is also a military talisman recognized by the Demon Clan's demon generals. According to legend, as long as you can get the approval of the Nine Heavens Shattered Star Stick, you can command 100,000 demon soldiers of the demon clan.

For more than a thousand years, people have been going to the Demon Swamp to try to find the Nine Heavens Shattered Star Stick. The forces of all parties have almost turned the Demon Swamp upside down, but still no one has found any trace of the Nine Heavens Shattered Star Stick. Slowly, this legend was considered a rumor.

However, even so, from time to time, there are still some people who want to try their luck and go to the Mercenary Guild to post a mission to the Demon Swamp. In Mino's opinion, the Qingning sisters and brothers are such people.

"Please, that place in the Demon Swamp has been rummaged over a long time ago, and if it weren't too far away from other towns, I'm afraid it would have been developed into a scenic area. You still want to go to that place?"

Mino exaggerated as much as he could, trying to dispel the siblings' years.

"Sorry, we're going to that place anyway. ”

The seriousness and persistence of the sister and brother exceeded everyone's expectations.

"In that case, I can issue this task for you. It's just that the reward of 100 million gold coins may not attract A-level mercenary groups, do you mind this?"

"How many gold coins do you need?" asked Qingshi with some frustration.

"At least 300 million gold coins. ”

Qing Ning frowned, she didn't know much about the hierarchy of the mercenary group, and the high priest didn't tell her. But it subconsciously occurred to her that the more mercenaries this mercenary mission attracted, the higher the probability that they would be able to find that person.

Some very heavy memories came to mind.

Qing Ning came to Weifeng with a serious face, bent down with his chin bowed, and handed out a bead of white-purple light with both hands.

"Please sell this bead. ”

"Sister!"

The bluestone on the side changed his face instantly.

"Little Stone, have you forgotten what Abel told us?"

"But, but what my mother left you at that time......" Qingshi argued with red eyes.

"Mother, she won't blame me. ”

"Before the wind, you can buy it. Mino was soon touched by the siblings.

"Well, don't be in a hurry. Then you can see that this bead is important to you. Although 100 million gold coins is not much, your task is relatively simple. It just so happens that I know the leader of an A-class mercenary group, so I can go and ask you about it. ”

"Hmm......" Qing Ning hesitated.

"What's the matter, is there any more questions? I should be able to convince them. ”

Qing Ning looked around at everyone with some embarrassment.

"Only one?"

There was a chill.

"Hey, what do you think the A-class mercenary group is! There is only one mercenary group stationed in Norvi City now!" Mino couldn't help but shout at first, and the trace of sympathy he had just generated disappeared in an instant.

"Ah, that's fine. ”

Qing Ning, who realized that she had made a common-sense mistake, instantly blushed.

In that case, it should be fine......

Qingning's mood became better.

"Hey!"

Weifeng suddenly felt that someone pulled the corner of his clothes, and looked down, it was the somewhat cute little boy, Qingshi.

"You don't have a crush on my sister, do you?"

For a moment, Weifeng felt several cold eyes staring at him.
