The next day, it wasn't until noon that the two of them, who had been tossing all night, woke up. Although their parents didn't wake them up in the morning, they always looked at them strangely when they ate at noon.

Kayla blushed and wanted to explain something, but she felt that the explanation would only get darker and darker, so she didn't say anything.

Ciri didn't blush at all, as if nothing had happened, although nothing out of the ordinary had happened to the two of them.

The snow stopped early the next morning, and when Ciri and the others got up, the sky was even more cloudless.

Although the day of the Miracle Festival is just two days away, the tavern is still full of adventurer mercenaries from all over the world.

In fact, the most pitiful thing in this world is this group of single adventurers without any organization.

It is important to know that adventurers are a very dangerous profession, although the income is sometimes considerable, but it is not stable enough, and the danger is extremely high, because they face danger and battle every day, so no one knows where they will die one day.

Before adventurers are qualified to join the mercenary group, no matter how high their income is, no one will marry their daughter to such a guy who will die at any time, and it is useless to have money.

Therefore, adventurers generally participate in the selection to join the mercenary group after a period of experience (the mercenary group has a fixed pension, at least the wives and children of their members will have a certain guarantee), or they can only retire and change careers to do other things.

If you want to be a lone wolf, you can do it, but you basically don't have to think about starting a family, at least not until you give up your insistence.

In fact, there are still many such lone wolves among adventurers, because they don't really have any other choice.

Most of these people are orphans for a variety of reasons, whether it is war or poverty. Since they were young, they have not had much opportunity to receive Mongolian education, and when they grow up, they mostly go to other mercenaries to do chores to understand the market first.

If you don't have any potential, when you learn some skills or abilities, you can go out at will or passively, and then you can only go on your own.

Most of them will form small groups with each other, but most of these groups can only last one or two missions, and they may disband for various reasons. Then it is to join such a group again, dissolve again, and there is no end to it.

In this process, some people with outstanding ability and mutual trust will naturally be selected to form some small relatively stable teams, while the rest of the people will fall into this endless sea of sinking misery again.

The last remaining lone wolves either found a stable job after training for a while, or they died in danger at some point and place and some temporary teammates, and no one would remember them, and they left nothing but a corpse.

There are many large mercenary groups that come to Noras Forest, which is one of the main adventure locations in the Serge Kingdom after all, but most of these large mercenary groups are stationed in small towns like Joseph, or simply have a station in the city in the main activity area, and most of the adventures are summarized and celebrated in the station during the Miracle Festival.

Those who are still in small villages like Clea on the edge of Noras Forest are either newcomers or lone wolves who haven't found any organizations or partners yet.

Of course, there are exceptions to everything, such as this well-equipped team of mercenaries who are chatting in the lobby of the tavern right now.

The mercenary group they formed was not a mercenary group, even if it was small. Even if it is a small mercenary group, it is required that there must be a fixed member living in the training place, and this place must belong completely to the mercenary group, not be rented. After satisfying these conditions, you have to do a difficult task to reach a fixed level, of course, this high difficulty is for the mercenary team. Otherwise, not only will the Mercenary Association not issue you an official mercenary group certificate, but the Adventurer Association will not issue you a mercenary group-level mission, even if you forcibly call it a mercenary group, it is actually just a mercenary team.

The organization of the team that does not meet the requirements of the mercenary group is called the mercenary squad, no matter how many members you have, but it is very easy to become a mercenary group when you have a large number of members, so there is generally no strange large mercenary squad. After all, the golden sign of the mercenary group is much more secure than the task resources, centripetal force, and cohesion of the mercenary team.

Although the small team in the tavern hall has only been established for a few years, its members are all veterans with certain qualifications, and the team's funds are not enough to hold the miracle festival in the tavern of the small village of Kraya.

But they are preparing to develop into a small mercenary group recently, and they want to buy a place in Joseph Town as a station, so they have to save every penny, and if they can't save it, they have to find a way to save it.

Speaking of which, it is still difficult for a mercenary team like them to be promoted to a mercenary group with few members, even if it is a small mercenary group.

First of all, the F-level task required for promotion is enough for most mercenary teams to drink a pot, and if there are not enough members and combat power to do this kind of task, they can only be sent to death. Secondly, they are limited in how fast they can make money until they have enough members, and it is not easy to scrape together the money to buy a team station.

Normally, the first thing they have to think about is to find more trustworthy and capable members first, and then consider the promotion task when the members are almost developed.

But this mercenary team named Leo (mercenary squads are generally named after the creator, even if the creator dies during the adventure, the name of the squad will generally not be changed, because it costs money to change the name, and if the squad in the same city has the same name, the serial number will be automatically added as the official name, and there will be no such trouble if the name is not repeated). This kind of task is mostly made by the adventurer's guild in order to take care of the publisher's identity, because the publisher gives not many rewards, but the task level released by the adventurer is not low, and the requirements for receiving the task are also very low, which will attract a lot of teams for the task level to complete the task), basically it didn't take much effort to mix up an F-level task.

In this way, the task requirements of the squad to advance to the small mercenary group are completed, but the station requirements are not so easy to handle, although the kind of large team tasks are easy to mix, but the relative income is also low, and there is basically no income. So the only way to put everyone in front of them is to work hard while minimizing team expenses.

Expenses such as the Miracle Festival were reduced to a minimum, so their captain, Leo, brought his team to the country tavern where they usually lived temporarily during their adventures, and made do with the adventurers who didn't have a team, instead of going to Joseph Town to party like in previous years.

As long as they save enough money to buy a garrison in Joseph, they can become a small mercenary group. As long as you become a small mercenary group, you can quickly gather some excellent mercenaries with the signboard and cohesion of the mercenary group, and the mercenary group can take on many more choices than the mercenary team.

As long as they have saved enough money, the development speed of their squad will be much faster than the original one-by-one development, so although they are living a more "miserable and desolate" life now, even if they suffer a lot for a better tomorrow, this group of mercenaries can endure it.

After all, mercenaries themselves are one of the hardest professions, and hard-working and hard-working are basically the basic qualities that every mercenary brings.
