"You're the head of the regiment?" said Nelson in surprise.

He had imagined many possibilities, but he never expected that the young man in front of him was the leader of the mercenary group.

"Are you the head of your mercenary group?" Nelson asked again.

"Yes, Simon is officially the leader of our Divine Punishment Mercenary Group, although he has only been in office for a short time, he is a veritable leader of the Divine Punishment Mercenary Group. Vic said very formally.

"It's a real surprise, it's the first time I've seen anything like this... Such a young regimental commander. Nelson laughed.

"I'm going to think about your request, go back to the group and talk to someone, and I'll be waiting for you at the Oak Tavern in two days' time, whether you go or not. Simon said calmly.

"Okay, then I won't disturb your drinking. Nelson nodded, then took a sip.

When Nelson walked away, Vic asked, "Simon, are you going to say yes to him?"

"There is such a thought. Simon smiled: "I have only been in charge of the Divine Punishment Mercenary Group for less than a month, and although there is no big opinion below in this short period of time, it is just succumbing to money and violence." ”

"Then you want to use this action to see and give them a trial?" said Meloti, taking a sip of her glass.

"It's not just a trial, it's our first action and I want to see how everyone reacts. Simon took a sip of his ale and continued, "What I need is a team that does what is forbidden, not a plate of loose sand that yields. ”

"Tomorrow, then, we're going to gather our men to talk about it. Vic said.

"A must. Simon laughed.

......

On the second day, in the inner hall of the headquarters of the Divine Punishment Mercenary Group, Simon waited here early, and as soon as it was dawn, he asked Vic to summon the members of the team to come to the inner hall to discuss matters, and they also came here one after another.

After a while, when everyone had arrived, Simon looked at the crowd below and said, "Today, the main reason for gathering everyone here is to inform all of them. ”

"Chief, what's the matter? Rhodes in the mercenary group laughed.

His words drew a burst of laughter from the rest of the group.

"There will be gold coins, I Simon has never been a stingy person, my idea for money is that everyone earns money together, not only members of the team, we are also friends, brothers, because every travel task can rest assured that only their closest people are handed over. Simon exclaimed.

"Good!" exclaimed Rod.

"Well said!" the rest of the idioms couldn't help but shout good, and they realized that although this leader was young, he was indeed experienced in speaking and doing things.

"Winter was supposed to be a day for everyone to rest, in this winter season, drinking wine, eating meat, leaning on the fireplace, is the most comfortable life, but this time I had to shout to everyone, mainly because there was a new task. Simon said slowly, paying attention to the expressions of the people below.

"Mission?" Rod wondered.

Simon's gaze swept over the crowd below, and found that their eyes were full of doubt.

"I know that the attendance of this mission is indeed different from the previous rules, and I also know that in Oak Town, there is an unwritten default rule, that is, on a frozen day in winter, when the mercenaries rest. Simon smiled, "But this time is different, I have only been the leader of the mercenary group for less than a month, and I am not even familiar with many of the people here, I want to take advantage of this mission to get to know everyone better and make each other more tacit." ”

"What is the mission? Some of the people at the bottom of the stairs asked shoutingly.

"This task should be simple for the current strength of our mercenary group. Simon said.

"The content of the mission was posted by a man named Nelson, he is the leader of a mercenary group named Golden Eagle, he recently purchased a batch of goods in Oak Town, ready to be transported to Green Town for distribution, but on the way to Gray Fox Mountain was robbed by a group of robbers, all the goods were lost, and then all his team members were killed, and he escaped alone. Simon said.

"I was robbed and ran away by myself, this mercenary leader is a real wreck. Rod said with a frown.

"Their mercenary group only has five people, while the bandit gang has ten people, maybe it's the difference in strength. Simon explained.

"So this time it's up to us to help him regain his lost cargo?" said Rod.

"That's right. Simon said.

"And what about the strength of the gang of bandits on the other side?" Rod asked the question that all the team members were concerned about.

"Among the ten people, there is only one elemental warrior, but it is also a low-level fire element, and its power is limited, and the remaining nine are ordinary people, but most of them have been mercenaries before, and their combat experience is quite rich. Simon said slowly, "And these people were all prisoners who had escaped from the riot in the gold mine not far from Oak Town, and they formed a bandit team in Greyfox Mountain to select weak small merchant groups to attack. ”

Hearing Simon say this, everyone's hearts were at ease, and the strength of the other party was much weaker than imagined.

"I'd like to ask how the chief's payment was made to the man named Nelson this time. Rod asked.

"He paid for three first-order crystal nuclei and one third-level low-level fire crystal nucleus. Simon said.

"It seems that it is slightly less, and the chief can fight for more benefits. Rod said.

"I'll ask him to meet at the Oak Bar the day after tomorrow and ask for more when the time comes. Simon said.

"This time the mission attendance, when the time is set at the specific time, this winter attendance mission, it will indeed make everyone very hard, so I decided that all the personnel on the mission will be rewarded with fifty silver coins. Simon loudly announced his decision.

"Long live the boss, long live the gold coins!" Rod cheered loudly.

This leader is more generous than the previous leader, I don't know how many times.

"Long live the chief, long live the gold coins!" The rest of the people heard that there was money to be gained, and it was also of a high nature, and the initial unhappiness of going to work in the winter also disappeared.

"Then it's decided, and we'll let you know when the time comes. Simon said.

Once everyone had retired, only Serge, Vic, Moore, and Meloti were left in the inner chamber.

Vic smiled: "It seems that the magic of money is not small, and it can make this group of mercenaries willing to start their duty in such a cold winter." ”

"Money is just a small thing, favors and punishments should be used at the same time, what I need to train is the cohesion of the whole team. Simon smiled.

"I'm finding that I'm getting more and more invisible, Simon. Melotti said, looking at Simon.
