"Is that mercenary group made up entirely of bestials?" Link asked curiously.

"Yes, their regimental commander did not follow the orders of the twenty-two regiments, according to the mercenary regulations, the entire mercenary regiment was originally regarded as a rebel, but their deputy regimental commander led most of the regimental members to attack the regimental commander, proving their loyalty, and now they are leading the regimental members to cooperate with the naked regiment to encircle and suppress those rebels, but I think those beasts are all the same, and they are all dead. The messenger replied.

Link was silent, during this time Link was also learning the customs of Cormier and Sambia, the mercenaries of Sambia are known for never reneging on the contract, the Red Regiment signed a contract with the Steel Regent to sweep the north of Cormier, as long as they are not attacked by the Steel Regent, they will never go south to take the initiative to attack the south of Cormier, and at the same time, the mercenary groups that break the contract will be punished to varying degrees.

Depending on the level of the mission, there are different penalties for breaking the contract, ranging from fines, deducting security deposits, to lowering the level and credit rating of the mercenary group, and the most serious behavior is to be declared a rebel, which will be caught by the official Sambian bounty, and even if you escape from Sambia, bounty hunters will flock to you.

And although there is no organization such as a unified adventurer's guild in Faeron, if a bounty is offered for breaking the contract, the wanted target may not be able to accept any mercenary tasks within the whole continent.

Link vaguely remembered the strange Chinese character recipe he had found with Niata in the desert ruins, which seemed to be related to the beasts, and Link's heart moved, and he asked about the general trajectory of the defected beasts.

Dozens of beasts led by their leader made their way north from the outskirts of Susar, and more than two hundred beast members under the leadership of their deputy leader pursued their original companions, and they traveled all the way north, possibly bypassing the interception of the Red Regiment and reaching Link's location.

Link absentmindedly nodded to the emissary, indicating that if the beasts had overpassed the Child's interception and reached the area, Link would intercept him, and the emissary reluctantly agreed, and soon left, agreeing to negotiate the terms of trade and employment after asking for instructions.

Tyr's apprentice priest Tyka came over at this time, this shy little boy already had a bit of an adult taste, and this time he was also brought by Link to deal with some military chores, Link heard a few words in Tyka's ear, nodded, and followed Tyka into a temporary glade, a group of wounded orcs were lying on the ground humming in the distance, and a group of female orcs were roughly bandaging them with dirty blackened coarse cloth.

A group of Cormiers sat in the clearing, cautiously staring at Link and the mountain infantry gathered around him, Link listened to the sound of the orcs in his ears, and felt a sense of irritation in his heart, but the conditions were limited, and it was impossible to bring these people into the town, and a large number of orcs were raiding the town, so they could only reluctantly carry out here.

These Cormiers were ordinary people who had not had time to escape from the towns and villages, they were all captured by the mountain infantry, they were basically dragged with their families, their families were not hurt by the orcs, there were about fifty young men, and there were more than a hundred people in their families.

Even if the family members were not harmed, there must still be some acquaintances and friends who were injured by the orcs in this war, plus the destruction of their homes, so everyone looked at Link with hatred, and in the face of the hateful gaze of these Cormiers, Link didn't care, but chatted with them with a pleasant face.

"What kind of occupation did you all do in the past?" Seeing that no one answered, Link pointed at a man at random, and the man saw the mountain infantry beside Link, and reluctantly said, "The dyers in the city." ”

Link pointed to a few more people, and several people replied accordingly, there are farmers, leather workers, coopers, steers, vegetable sellers, and shepherds from all walks of life, in fact, Link has sent people to count their occupations before, and the wealthier craftsmen and merchants are all kept in solitary custody, and there are basically people who are not in a good situation here.

"Have you been wronged?" Hearing Link's words, Cormiers from different professions looked at each other, and Link said softly: "Any grievances are fine, the oppression of employers, the unhappiness of life, and so on." ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and the dyer named Vega gritted his teeth, and opened his mouth first, he was originally a farmer, married the most beautiful girl in the village, in order to pay the marriage tax to the lord of the village - a bride can sit in a big iron pot inside, otherwise the jazz will exercise the right of the first night, Vega gritted his teeth and borrowed usury, and in order to repay the loan, he took advantage of the farm to work in the dyeing workshop in the city.

In order to repay the debt as soon as possible, he worked overloaded, was exposed to foul-smelling dyes for a long time, suffered from a very serious lung disease, although he paid off the loan shark in time, but he owed a lot of foreign debts for the treatment, and completely emptied the savings of both parents, at that time Vega lost his ability to work, and caught up with the orc tide, Cormier raised taxes a lot, Vega's wife had to go to the city to work as a secret prostitute in order to pay off the debt, for the sake of the newborn child, and was only recently picked up by Vega, who was sick.

Looking at this crying man, everyone was moved, have told their own stories, leather workers for a long time as an apprentice in the leather workshop chores, hands because of a long time contact tanning leather solution, has become full of holes, but also from time to time to endure the workshop master scolding and the workshop owner blame, the family also to the master gifts, otherwise the master will not give the apprentice real technology, teach the apprentice how to make leather.

The farmer planted the land of the knight lord in the village, which was considered a tenant, and usually the mother-in-law of the family went to the village pastor's house to wash and cook for people, and could get back three or four silver coins a month, and the farmer and his son planted the land, and the harvest of thirty percent could be obtained by themselves, and the daughter fed the chickens at home and tended to the vegetable field in the backyard, and the life was originally passable.

The tide of orcs came, although the orcs did not come here, but the tax increase was common, the village tax collector took away the family's three sheep and a pig, the twenty or so chickens were also eaten by the village militia, and the son was also recruited into the noble private soldiers in the city, and there was no news.

The gelding and cooper were all from village to village, not only to pay taxes to the village tax collectors, but also to endure harassment by the village ruffians, and from time to time they were required to work for free, or to be taken away from a few copper plates, and the vegetable sellers had to be exploited by the city vegetable tyrants, who had to pay taxes according to the types of vegetables they bringed.

Even a grocery store owner with his own small shop has to be exploited by the guild in the city, and he has to pay a gift money to open a business, and he has to pay a membership fee in normal times, and the price of goods must be set according to the price of the guild, and the type of business must be strictly in accordance with the requirements.

Looking at the people who were in a somewhat uplifted mood, Link smiled and said to everyone: "This is the class antagonism. ”
