Chapter 14: From Far Away (14)

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The freed slaves were sent to Grantham in batches with the assistance of the vengeful griffons, who arrived later, and a small number of those who were in poor health were temporarily housed in various inns, taverns, and well-meaning homes in the city.

As the highest person in the field, and being a nobleman himself, Neham became the obvious candidate to take over Nax City temporarily. While he was busy suppressing the defenders of the city and pacifying the residents, Link was using the magic communication within the guild to talk to the president of Valorette, Bridge, who was far away.

"Little Nax escaped?" Bridges was shrewd, even if he saw through Link's intentions, he wouldn't break it.

With Link's ability, coupled with the future knight captain whose strength is close to the legendary level, it is not difficult to capture the city lord of Nax alive, it can be said that he can be captured. Nature's Child deliberately let him go...... Even the capture of Nax Jr. and the fingering of Nax Sr. in Hohenheim would have little significance in eradicating the slave trade. In order to protect Mingzhe's life, they would rather sacrifice a legendary-level mage than burn the fire on themselves, which is probably the biggest concession from Hohenheim since the end of the Golden Age, which shows how much they value Link......

Once again, Bridge rejoiced in his success.

The Watchtower, the Wood Elves, the Dawn Cult, and now even Hohenheim, who represents the strongest of the human race, have chosen to ally themselves with Link, and it is not an exaggeration to call the strongest god.

Thousands of years of prosperity and power have made human beings gradually forget that there are many species in this world that are far more powerful than themselves, whether they are nobles or mages, they are all indulging in the glory of the past. The children of nature from the other world represent the arrival of a new era, the gods, the camps, and even the pattern, all the forces are reshuffled. If human beings are not careful. It is highly likely to perish in this revolution that has swept the whole world.

"What's the reaction from the Hohenheim side?" Link reached out to Bridge, wanting to know if there was any movement in Hornheim, who had been staying above Waolet for months.

"I haven't received any new news here, and even if there is any real action, I won't be able to find it in a short time. The City of Mages is not that easy to infiltrate, except for the Mages. No one can go up. Bridge habitually stroked his goatee, "Perhaps...... Cobwebs can get some inside information. ”

"No, I don't want to come into direct contact with cobwebs unless necessary. "Zhu can control Link's every move at any time, and he is not afraid of Zhu's suspicion in this regard, but people are terrible. In order to maintain a neutral stance, it is not only necessary to be unbiased in one's own camp, but also to be careful in dealing with people and things.

No matter how itchy Bridge's strange behavior is, it is difficult to ask directly, so he can only use other topics to hide his loss. "I've thought about it carefully in the past few days, and I still think you should set up a mercenary group. ”

Link was a little impatient with the repetition of the guild's old tune, "I have a special identity, and it's really helpless to recruit mercenaries, so don't make a mess." ”

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to use this to rebuild the union's reputation. "Know why Link isn't fast. Bridge explains that he wasn't all built for the union, "The Spider Web was originally a ranger organization under the Nature Alliance, and you probably know this better than me. ”

Link snorted, waiting for Bridge's words.

Licking his somewhat dry lips, he felt that the pressure boss Bridge hadn't been so nervous in years. It's like going back to his youth, when he was still a freshly debuted adventurer, with no experience and identity, and his palms sweated every time he saw a big man.

"Now that the alliance against the undead has been re-established, why can't we reorganize an organization that resembles a spider's web?"

Think about Bridge's construction over and over again. Link reads something beyond the literal meaning.

"I thought your goal in life was to regain the glory of the union?"

Bridge's hanging heart finally landed, and Link really read his hints.

"With the current distribution of power, it is very difficult to achieve. It's the same as it was before you came to Edgar. There are many contradictions between the major nobles and the various temples, and there are strong enemies outside. There is a gap inside, and it takes an opportunity to break this delicate balance. ”

"So you're a child of nature, but neutral?"

Bridge smiled but didn't answer, and Link frowned.

All along, because of the special identity of the child of nature, he has neither the face of the nobles, nor the traditional forces such as the temple, Bridge's impression has always been a bit cunning and clever and stubborn, because there is no confrontation of interests, he and Bridges have no chance of confrontation, until now, Link really understands why Bridges is called the White Fox.

This old man who looks like a miserly businessman is really smart, if he wants to reshape the fallen adventurer union, he will inevitably encounter all kinds of obstacles, Bridget wants to divert his attention by supporting a new force, and sells a favor to himself, he~ This abacus is really good.

Just as he was about to say a few sarcastic words, Bridge spoke, repeatedly saying that it was out of consideration for the big picture.

"There are some things that are inconvenient for you to do and cannot tarnish the reputation of the temple. ”

There was something in this sentence, and Link was silent for a long time.

"So...... The mercenary group is just testing the waters?"

Bridge nodded, "That's natural, it's up to you to hand-pick reliable members, and the hiring is not only to be unconstrained by the conditions of the faction and followers, but also to prevent the nobles from accusing and interfering with other temples. ”

Link was silent again.

He has a withdrawn personality and doesn't like to communicate with people excessively, and he doesn't like to have a lot of people around him. Coupled with the nature of the profession itself, it is also destined that he cannot associate too closely with people other than the druids. The Children of Nature are too powerful, constrained at every turn, and destined to walk alone, Link never thought of forming his own force, and Bridge's construction cast a stone in his heart. On his own, he would never have been able to accomplish the task of defeating the Undead Empire. The neutral nature of the pillars themselves meant that the new nature temple would not participate in or interfere in matters outside the priesthood.

There are some things that are inconvenient for you to do, and they cannot tarnish the reputation of the temple. This was the one that touched Link the most of the many things Bridget said.

In order not to violate the precepts, the children of nature in the past created cobwebs, which are to be followed without fear of violating the taboo of the pillars.

Only...... Give it a try, just take advantage of this trip to the big trap, where there are many powerful mercenaries.

Bridge, who had been watching Link, saw his expression froze and held his breath for the result.

"What are the requirements for forming a mercenary group?"

He agreed...... Bridge clenched his fists, and the nerves that had been tense were released.

Due to Link's relationship, in recent times, the adventurer's guild has been secretly resisted by similar forces such as cobwebs and war cries, and on several occasions, the props and materials used to maintain the operation are almost out of order, and if they don't think of a way to divert firepower, before the union is revived, it may be destroyed in the hands of other organizations with nobles and even gods as backers. Since this crisis was caused by a child of nature, it should be resolved by him.

Bridges was sure that Link would not refuse his offer, so he had the courage to say it. Even Link's personality is counted in Bridge's account.

If this matter were to be someone else, it might be annoying and angry, but Link would not, how could a person who didn't even care about honorifics and etiquette be angry because of such a small calculation.

I have to say that Bridge did find out Link's mentality and character, and he really wouldn't be bothered by these unnecessary side ups.

The head of the Nax branch gave him a look, and the latter immediately brought the register and placed it in front of Link, explaining in detail the main points of the registration.

Unlike adventurers, mercenaries do not need to disclose their true identities, and the union will keep them secret, and there are no restrictions on their origin, gender, and age, and some even have several regiment commanders.

Doyle, who had been silent, couldn't help but be curious: "What name are you going to choose?"

Picking up a pen and signing the name of the world on the enchanted paper with the agreement on it, Link only took a few seconds to decide on the name of the group, "The names of people and places are too vulgar and nothing new. Since I'm a lifeweaver from another world, it's better to call it from afar, simple and catchy. ”

Considering Doyle's own unstable nature, Link made himself the head of the regiment. As for the deputy regiment, the internal organization or something, Link didn't bother to think about it, so he simply numbered it, 1 is Doyle, a professional demon warrior. 2 is Vera, a professional warlock, and 3 is the disguise currently used, and the profession has not been thought of for the time being. 4 is Asa, the shadow thief. In the future, those who join will be so much the same, so that during the secret investigation, even if they are present, they can be used as mercenaries, and they don't have to worry about whether the children of nature should intervene.

After completing the formalities, it was early in the morning when I left the union, and the streets were deserted just after dawn, and there was no one to see except for the patrolling revenge army.

Calling Asa who was squatting outside the door, Link had achieved his purpose in Nax City and was ready to move on to his next destination.

"Not waiting for him?" Asa couldn't help but ask, this he, referring to Neam, the Knight of Dawn.

Doyle glanced at the eventful wanderer, hinting at the warning.

[Leave him alone, I'm afraid you will fight next time we meet.] 】

[I only agreed to let him go with me, but I didn't say that I wouldn't leave him. 】

Doyle was dumbfounded by such an answer, let alone Neham, and even he didn't expect Link, a child of nature, to cheat.

With the freshly baked mercenary certificate, Link and his party swaggered away from the main entrance. Waiting left and right and waiting without seeing Link, and feeling that something was wrong, Neuham personally ran to the union before realizing that he had been tricked again. Knowing that their purpose was to trap them in a big trap, Neham, who couldn't get out, could only continue to stay in Nax, waiting for Grantham to send someone to take over.

ps:ps: It's been boring to write lately, and there will be a lot of fight scenes in the big pit, so I don't know if I can write it well......
