Chapter 526: What Happened to Dinago
Dinago used to be a mercenary, he picked up a long sword left by his father at the age of fifteen and joined the little famous mercenary organization Bloodblade Squad organized by his uncle Wacker, five years of adventure, Dinago grew from a rookie mercenary to an old and spicy hunter, a capable scout. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info so much so that his uncle Wacker began to plan for his future.
You should go to school and go to college, and you can't be a rude mercenary like your father and uncle all your life...... These were the words that Uncle Wacker often whispered in Dinago's ear, and he hoped that his own nephew would go to the academy for a few years and learn a good skill, instead of mingling with those reckless and vulgar mercenaries all day long, so that even if he became a seasoned free mercenary, he would still be a lowly person in the eyes of those adults and nobles.
Dinago didn't want to go to school, he liked the life of a mercenary, but his uncle was strict and forced him to accept his arrangement. Just as Dinago was about to become a student at the Academy of San Marceau in the Academy District of Moriente City, the Glass War between the Business Alliance and the Kingdom of Trimber broke out, which changed Dinago's fate.
It's the same as the indignant mercenaries who began to organize themselves to resist the invasion of the Kingdom of Trimber, but as the tide of the war changed, the resisting side of the merchant alliance became the aggressors. The Bloody Blade Squad also recruited troops in this war, expanded rapidly, and then entered the territory of the Kingdom of Trimber, from righteous soldiers to unscrupulous bandits, murder, arson, robbery, rape, and all kinds of evil, for these bandits, the glass war is a carnival, a festival for their mercenaries......
But the good times didn't last long, and Trimber VII, who had only one tendon in his head, suddenly offered a bounty, turning the war into a gladiatorial arena for the high-end combat power of the two sides. Dinago's uncle, Wacker, was among the first to fall victim. As the first leader of the newly established Bloodblade Mercenary Group, a golden two-star swordsman, he led a group of elite mercenaries from the mercenary group to attack the country manor of a Trimber nobleman, but was raided by two great swordsmen, and the team of nearly 100 people was wiped out.
Dinago only recovered his uncle's headless body, and while he was in agony, the Bloodblade Mercenaries broke out into an infighting over the wealth they had accumulated from previous looting, killing the ground with blood, and when the infighting was over, the remaining survivors left the Bloodblade Mercenaries with their booty. This mercenary group, which had just been formed, disappeared in this way.
After burying his uncle, the young Dinago joined the Armed Legion of the Chamber of Commerce formed by the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce with hatred for Trimber VII. He is not qualified to seek revenge on the two great swordsmen who killed his uncle, and besides, the twenty-year-old Dinago is just a mercenary with a black and iron star, but if he breaks through the palace, he will not have a chance to slash the culprit Trimber VII.
It's just that I never expected that the glass war was a farce, and there were no major field battles and siege battles at all, after staying in the barracks for a few months, Dinago suddenly found that the business alliance had won inexplicably, the kingdom of Trimber was gone, and that Trimber VII was also said to have committed suicide, and then the giants of the business alliance were busy dividing the fruits of victory and dividing their own chamber of commerce territories from several countries that had fallen.
No one cares about the frustration of a Black Iron mercenary, and when Dinago suddenly finds himself with nowhere to go, losing his uncle, his only relative, and the young Dinago doesn't know what to do next. At this time, he regretted it and wanted to go back to the city of Morent to study at the academy, but unfortunately he did not have any money with him. The mercenary group's wealth has been swept away by the victors of the infighting, and he even borrowed money to bury his uncle. Although he has a good salary for joining the armed legion of the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, he is only a black iron mercenary, and he has always been used to being lavish, making comrades-in-arms to please the commander or something, and he has not saved any money at all......
In the next ten years, he experienced all the foreign wars of the Business Alliance, had big victories, and had also suffered heavy defeats, but Dinago was extremely lucky to save his life on the battlefield, whether it was attacking the city or charging into battle, he became the final victor. Even on the battlefield where the army was wiped out, he was one of the few survivors. So much so that he was nicknamed Lucky Dinago by his comrades.
This time, Dinago was given a secret mission, which was to infiltrate the city of Moriente. Lord Kirov, the Grand Governor of the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, personally met with several of their selected candidates, and promised them that as long as they completed their tasks, the President of the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, Grand Guild Comberlet, would personally promote them to become the Grand Duke's Guardian Knights and give them a heavy reward.
Ten years of war career had honed Dinago into a very sophisticated soldier, and he knew that the heavier the reward, the greater the danger. However, the promise of becoming a knight of the Grand Duke's bodyguard still moved him. Don't look at the fact that he has been through a hundred battles, and he also has a certain fame and prestige in the armed legion of the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, but he can still only go around in the middle position of the legion. The reason is simple, he was born as a mercenary and joined the Chamber of Commerce halfway. Even if he has spent more than ten years in the legion, even if he has become a three-star swordsman, he is still not as good as those newcomers cultivated by the Chamber of Commerce itself, for the Chamber of Commerce, people like Dinago are always outsiders, and they cannot be entrusted with heavy responsibilities.
As long as this mission is completed, the reward of money does not matter, the important thing is that these mercenaries will be promoted to the knight of the guard by the president of the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce, Archduke Comberlet, which means that the Two-Headed Dragon Chamber of Commerce accepts them and treats them as their own. From now on, they will get the same treatment as the talents trained by the Chamber of Commerce itself, whether in terms of position or salary, they will exceed the original income, and even their children will be accepted by the Chamber of Commerce, and they can be trained from an early age, so it can be said that they have no worries about food and clothing in this life.
It was an opportunity, so none of the chosen personnel of Dinago would refuse to carry out the task. Moreover, the mission didn't seem very dangerous to Diñago. It's just a matter of infiltrating the city of Moldonte, getting in touch with the first people who are lurking, bringing them the location of a hidden weapons and equipment depot, helping them to take them out, and then causing a riot in the city of Moldent......
This mission is really simple, and it is better than being trapped in that small mound by the cavalry units of the Southern Central Kingdom Coalition when I was the scout captain a few years ago. In order to prevent the cavalry under the mountain from discovering that he was hiding on the small dirt mountain, he lay on the ground for three days without moving for three days before waiting for the cavalry to leave.
However, the only important thing about this task is how to save his life in the riotous ranks, and Dinago knows very well how dangerous it is to be the leader in the ranks of the rioters, because that is the position that is most likely to be targeted by the Norton family forces who came to suppress it.
Dinago chose a mercenary named Ricardo as his partner, and there were a total of eight people who accepted this task, all of whom had been mercenaries like Dinago, and they would be divided into four groups to infiltrate the city of Moriente before rounding. Master Kirov told them that there was already a group of lurking personnel in the city of Moriente, but they found that the Nortons were heavily armed, and they confiscated the weapons of the outtown residents in case of an attack.
The first lurking personnel sent a message that the Norton family's rampage in the city of Moriente had aroused the resistance of all the city's residents, but they could not cause a riot without weapons, and that they would inevitably lose one or the other if they were too few men. So the first lurking personnel wanted reinforcements and weapons so that they could trigger a riot* and deal a sudden and violent blow to the Norton forces.
Director Kirov said that in the past few years, the Liward Chamber of Commerce had transported three ships of weapons and equipment to the Zangjin Bay, but for some reason they did not return to the Chamber's territory, but stored them in a small and remote estate outside the docks. Their main task was to meet up with the first group of undercover personnel to tell them the news, and then carry the weapons and equipment stored in the small manor to the outer 24 districts of Morent, distribute them to the inhabitants of the city who were ready to rebel, and then lead them to attack the Norton forces.
In order to avoid attracting the attention of the Norton forces defending the city of Moldonte, Dinago took Ricardo in a large circle, and they entered the Cristo Hills from the Titanini Mountains, posing that two free mercenaries who had completed their mission had just returned from the Khanate of Havestan, and from there they had purchased a lot of cattle and sheep skins before arriving in the city of Moldonte.
The Norton soldiers guarding the east gate were not interested in the two people who were going to the city at all, and with a wave of their hand, they let the two of them enter the city. When Dinago and the others found the meeting place and the joint, they found that it was a tavern, called the Crow Tavern.
Behind the counter in the tavern sat a young man in his twenties, and after the code, the young man complained, "What's the matter? The others have been here for days, and you two have been here until now, and everyone is in a hurry." ”
"Sorry, we're on the safe side. "It's just that we didn't expect the Norton family's armed forces to be so lax in their defense of the city of Moreent, which is somewhat inconsistent with the situation you have passed on. Also, when we came here just now, we noticed that the streets were full of people, and many shops were doing business. I looked at it, and it seemed that the atmosphere in the city of Moriente was very peaceful, and there was no such thing as the suppressed and violent feeling you said. Can you tell us what's going on?"
"It seems that you are a delicate person, and you are very observant. Much smarter than your six stupid accomplices. When they got here, they only knew what they wanted to eat and drink, and they asked me to help them find women, and they didn't know how they died. Originally, I didn't want to make a lot of effort, but now it seems that you will not be caught obediently. The young man grinned as he placed a long sword on the counter.
With two "poofs", Dinago and Ricardo drew their swords at the same time, and stepped back step by step.
"So this was a trap in the first place, and the so-called first lurking personnel sent a fake call for help?" asked Dinago coldly, looking around.
"Yes, we sent it, and after we arrest you, we will send a message to the Business Alliance, saying that the second batch of personnel they sent over were stupid fools, and there was a conflict with the Norton family forces for no reason, and seven were killed on the spot and one escaped, so that everyone could not carry out the riot plan, and asked them to send another batch of reinforcements over......" The young man replied with a smile, and then pulled the long sword out of its scabbard inch by inch.
"Let all of you ambushers come out......" Dinago said.
The young man shook his head: "There are no ambushes, don't worry, I'm the only one in the store." Do you see this little door behind me? If you defeat or kill me, you can swagger out through this back door, and no one will stop you. As for the front door you enter, you don't have to make a decision, because my senior brother is outside, and if you can't beat me, you won't want to run out of the front door......"
"Do you have a teacher?" Diñago's eyes narrowed, raising his vigilance even more.
"Yes," the young man sighed, "Actually, I don't like to fight and kill very much, but my teacher had to let me come, and he said that I could use the business alliance to send me a trial object, which is much safer than fighting on the battlefield." Alright, you guys go on, but I can give you a chance. Are you a talented person willing to serve our Norton family?"
Ricardo, who was beside Diñago, rushed forward without saying a word, and Dinago looked at Ricardo, who was flying flesh and blood in the sword light, and his heart was hot, and he shouted: "Kill!" and pounced......
......
The manor at the top of Bryn Mountain, which was once home to the Tempest Swordmaster, has been taken by Lorist and used as his residence.
Targer hurried onto the balcony of a house, where Lorist was resting on a chaise longue under the protruding eaves.
"What's the matter, is Jenorio okay over there?"
"No, Your Highness, Genorio has already captured the last two spies sent by the Business Alliance. It's just that this time it took a bit long, and I was reprimanded by Lord Reddy for a long time. Tagger said, "I just received a message from the Imperial Capital from the Eagle Ship. ”
"Oh, didn't our King Majesty return to the imperial capital, and did he toss something again?"
"Uh......" Tagger hesitated, "Your Highness, I don't know what to say......"
"What's going on, I don't know what to say......?
"Well, Your Highness, the news from the imperial capital says that Her Majesty the Empress is pregnant, seven months. Tugger said with his head down, as if smiling.
Lorist replied lazily, "The Queen is pregnant?" Good news, it looks like we have to prepare a gift to celebrate...... What? Seven months!"
Lorist jumped up: "The queen is seven months pregnant?"
"Yes, Your Highness. ”
What a big scandal! His Royal Highness Second Highness has not returned to the imperial capital for nearly three years on the front line, and now he has only returned to the imperial capital for less than ten days when he leads the army back according to the itinerary, and then the queen has been pregnant for seven months, and it is clear that the crown on the head of His Royal Highness has turned green. The question is what His Royal Highness will do next, you must know that the queen is from the Fisabrun family.
"Your Highness, the intelligence said that Her Majesty the King did not come out to greet Her Majesty when she returned to the imperial capital, saying that she was seriously ill. So His Majesty brought a group of nobles to visit in order to show the couple's affection, but as soon as the tent was opened, he saw that His Majesty had a big belly...... His Majesty blushed on the spot and drew his sword and killed four or five maids serving the queen, and the queen was stunned, and His Majesty slammed the door in a rage......"
Lorist was silent for a long time before he sighed: "It seems that His Majesty the King should not have the heart to buy his enthronement ceremony in the past two years." ”
