Bards used to be a noble profession, although they had little strength and low martial arts, but they were well-informed and knowledgeable. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Many people on the mainland will only stay in their hometown for the rest of their lives, and only bards let them open their eyes to the world, let them know the past, and look forward to the future. People will also show respect for those who know much more than they do. Each bard is strictly vetted by the headquarters and awarded a bard badge.

Unfortunately, that was a few years ago. I don't know when bards began to proliferate. The level is still uneven, the principle is gradually lost, and the discipline is gradually lost. Kevin is not a flawless person, he also tells pornographic jokes. But in any case, provoking two gangs to fight should never be the job of the bard.

Unfortunately, the General Guild is also difficult to control in this regard, and there are loopholes in the relevant laws. A mouth grows on an individual, who can know if it's true or not. It can only be constrained by the bard's own moral standards.

Kevin squirted one and returned to the queue with a sigh. Regardless of the effect, the atmosphere has changed, and many people are talking. It is impossible for the two mercenary groups to make a peace, but it is not easy to fight in the current situation.

Although the female dwarf and the man with the double axe are still fighting each other, after all, it is the territory of purple gold and gold, and even if the female dwarf overturns the man with the double axe, it will inevitably arouse the anger of others. The scene is bound to be even more chaotic, and the reason is just to prove that the person who dreams of returning to the mercenary group can split the gold brick with a sword?

However, in the current situation, they still need to be given a step, otherwise it will be difficult to save face. Kevin immediately stood in the middle of them and said to the dwarf, "Hello, we are going to take this task now. Since the Dream Return Mercenary Group has taken over, we hope to consult some mission details. ”

The female dwarf glanced at the people in Zijin, but still nodded: "Then come with me." ”

Seeing the female dwarf trying to leave, these people in Zijin immediately mocked: "Hey, don't go?" "Didn't you say that you were going to pick up a group of us alone?" "This is leaving......?"

The female dwarf stopped, clutching her sword. Kevin had no choice but to continue to persuade: "Calm down, let's put the task first." ”

The female dwarf finally snorted and left angrily in a mockery, and Kevin turned back to beckon his teammates to follow. A few of the team members turned their heads to look at the chief, who motioned to follow Kevin's instructions, and everyone went out together. Sain's face was obviously reluctant, but the chief was present, and he didn't say anything.

Several people followed the female dwarf to the branch of the Dream Back Mercenary Group. The branch is extremely small, almost the size of a market butcher shop. Speaking of a mercenary group of only 300 people in total, one branch is already quite good.

The female dwarf randomly found a few stone piers outside the branch to sit down, and motioned for everyone to sit on the side: "Although I think that I can solve the situation just now, I can solve it myself." But thank you for breaking through. ”

No one answered, and they all looked at the chief, who looked at Kevin: "Why don't you speak?"

Kevin was surprised: "Sir, shall I ask?" This task should still be led by the chief, and it should be dominated by the chief.

"I'm in charge of the side support, if you have a problem, I'll help, and you can solve the rest yourself," Marcus ordered directly, "Kevin, you come to be the temporary captain." You guys, obey his orders, you know?"

"Yes. A few were obviously reluctant, but had to answer like that.

Kevin touched his forehead, to be honest, being a captain is much more stressful than being a minion. But at this point, I had to bite the bullet: "Hello, I haven't asked you what your name is?"

"My name is Locke Locke. The dwarf replied.

"What a strange name," Kevin laughed, "did you just come to Locklock?"

"Hahaha!" the female dwarf laughed, "a lot of people say that about me." ”

"Kevin!" Sain suddenly interjected on the side, "The chief asked you to be the temporary captain, not for you to pick up girls." ”

Kevin was stunned for a moment, slightly angry in his heart, but he still endured it, turned his head and began to get to the point: "Miss Locke, what is the specific form of the mission?"

"This is the task," replied Miss Locke, too, with a straight face, "and in fact the situation was like this, the old professor and his five students were guarded by a total of fifteen men. There were 20 of us at the time of departure. ”

"Our mission is to observe the ecology of the large animals or monsters in the Venomous Forest, and it is not as simple as peeking at mating. The professor also took out several picture scrolls, which appeared to be mating pictures of gorillas, and it was said that he was trying to study whether the gorillas would react when they saw them. Miss Locke replied solemnly.

Everyone: "......"

"Oh, don't look at me like that, I'm embarrassed. Locke scratched his head.

"Ahem, why did the mission fail?" Kevin pulled back the topic.

"After all, there are still too many people," Locke said, "and we haven't seen any big animals since we went in." We tried to split the people into groups, but the professor wouldn't let him, he had to be with the students. Then we can't reduce the number of personnel, otherwise it may be difficult to protect. ”

"At that time, everyone lay in the mud collectively, waited quietly for a day, and the whole body stinked, and when they came back, flies and mosquitoes circled around, nailing a bag. It doesn't work to apply any anthelmintic medicine. "But we just saw the gorillas passing by, and we didn't achieve anything at all." ”

Everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, and the three-month backlog of tasks was really not done by people.

Locke continued, "High-level mercenaries can be enough to keep them safe with just two or three people, but their price is not enough to pay for high-level mercenaries. And this task is particularly dirty.,If it's just to kill a monster or something, it's okay.。 Anyway, since that time, no mercenary has been willing to take on this task, and it has been backlogged until now. ”

"Kevin!" Marcus said suddenly.

"Here!" Kevin subconsciously stood up.

"Now I give you carte blanche to authorize," Marcus replied, "that you are the commander-in-chief of this operation, and I will not go there." ”

Everyone had black faces, sir, are you running away from the battle? But unfortunately no one said this.

"Do you have faith?" the chief asked aloud.

"Yes!" Kevin reflexed.

Marcus clapped his hands to the sky, then whistled into the air, and a parrot in the sky suddenly swooped down, and almost flapped its wings twice, and stopped firmly on Marcus's arm.

"This is our army's scout parrot, released by the mage troops, and patrolled at all garrisons," the commander turned his arm sideways to show everyone the parrot, "all it takes is a clapping and a whistle to summon it." Summoning him once a day in the evening to report to him on the day's work. I'll know. ”

"Yes, sir!" all the recruits stood up.

The commander also turned back to the parrot and said, "Please patrol the vicinity of these recruits, and report to me immediately if something unexpected happens." ”

"Yes, sir!" the parrot also raised its right wing in front of its chest, which was considered a salute. It was the first time for the recruits to see this situation, and their eyes were full of surprise.

"Go!" the chief raised his hand, and the parrot suddenly flew into the air, and the chief waved his hand at everyone: "Good luck to everyone." ”

"Goodbye, sir!" the recruits saluted again until the chief stepped out of sight. Then everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then sat back in their seats.

Suddenly, there was a fluttering sound in the air, and the parrot flew down again, resting firmly on Kevin's shoulder, and everyone was surprised. Kevin couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you supposed to patrol the sky?"

"I'm tired of taking a break. The parrot just glanced at him.

Everyone: "......"

Miss Locke also expressed surprise: "I heard that there have been many reforms within the army recently, but I really didn't expect it to be so developed now. ”

Everyone also said that it was the first time they saw it, Kevin couldn't help but keep turning his head to observe, and the parrot immediately gave him the back of his head with his wings: "Work!

Kevin's face darkened, and he realized that the recruits really had no dignity. A bird can reprimand itself, and this bird has a completely different attitude towards the chief and towards himself.

"Ahem!" Kevin calmed down, "then...... It's almost time, shall we have lunch?"

Oka suddenly spoke: "It's hard to come out once, why don't we go home?" The teleportation point will go back quickly, and it will take a week to come out anyway." "It's been almost three months since I was out, and everyone is a little homesick.

Kevin glanced at the parrot on his shoulder, and the parrot turned to look at Oka, who was embarrassed. Feelings: This parrot is the surveillance left by the chief.

"I'll report your request to the chief in the evening," Kevin said, using official rhetoric, "and I'll have the parrot chief deliver the message then." If the chief allows it, then I have nothing to say. ”

"Don't, don't," Oka hastily rephrased, "whatever you say." ”

Miss Locke stood up: "Looks like nothing is wrong with me?

"Wait," Kevin hurriedly stopped, "Miss Locke, please come with us for a while, we are all new recruits, and there are many things that we are not familiar with yet." We can treat you to lunch. ”

"Alright then," said Miss Locke, sitting back on the stone pier.

On the side, Starter quickly wrote a note and handed it to Kevin, which read: "You said that you sent me out to investigate intelligence, and I took the opportunity to go home." ”

After Kevin finished reading, he turned his head and found that the parrot was also reading his note. After a moment of silence, the parrot spoke: "Do you think I can't read?"

Everyone: "......"

"Ahem!" Kevin crumpled the note, "Anyway, let's eat first." ”

A few people found a tavern at random, ordered a few dishes, and nibbled on a few breads. The recruits got used to it, they didn't talk when they ate, and for a while the dinner table was lifeless. Kevin nibbled and glanced at the parrot on his shoulder from time to time, but it was undoubtedly impossible to see what the bird's expression was.

There were other people on the side who looked at them curiously, and some even asked directly: "What a beautiful parrot! ”

"Can't buy it. Kevin replied. It's true, such a highly intelligent parrot, Kevin has never heard of it in 10 years of travel. Only in fiction.

"And where did you come from?" the other asked.

"It's not mine. Kevin was helpless.

Other: "......"

After eating, Kevin wondered if he should give the parrot some to eat as well, so he asked the bartender, "Is there any parrot feed here?"

"No," replied the bartender, reluctantly, "we only have feed for the hens." ”

"Shut up!" the parrot screamed, "I don't need you to feed me!

"Okay," Kevin hurriedly tried to reassure, "let's go out to work, go to work." In the astonished eyes of a tavern, Kevin was run out of the bird training all the time.

A few people didn't go out a few steps, and the parrot suddenly flew away on its own, without saying a word. Everyone looked at each other, and then became nervous: "It won't be reported to the chief, right?"

"Let's not care about it for now, let's hurry up!" Kevin still tried his best to calm the army's mind, "Let's go! Let's go to Wang Li Academy first and find the professor." ”

"Then I'm not going to follow you, am I?" replied Locke, "though I thank you for your hospitality, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely help you." ”

"Okay," Kevin nodded, "but there's always a question I don't understand." Just over there in the mercenary branch, since it is the sphere of influence of the Zijin mercenary group, why do you want to go there alone?"

Locke just smiled awkwardly: "I got lost, and I found a random one to go in." Hey. ”

"Oh," Kevin smiled, "and we'll see you later!"

The female dwarf waved her hand casually, turned away, and disappeared into the crowd in a moment.

Sein spoke: "This should be a high-level mercenary, it is likely that he is already a fifth-order warrior or above, and he is stronger than all of us." ”

Kevin nodded, after training, looking at the opponent's movements and actions, he could barely infer the opponent's strength. If it's really getting lost and often going to other people's territory, it's hard to believe that you can survive until now.

"Forget it, let's go. Kevin turned, and suddenly, he saw a man sitting on the ground on the side of the street, with a book in front of his lap, the title of which was "The Assassins".

The man looked up, looked at Kevin, and smiled. Then he picked up the book and walked slowly to the corner of the street. Kevin's head was already sweating slightly, obviously the other party called him over first, but the other party was obviously an assassin, which ......

Kevin thought for a moment and decided to ignore it for now. No one else on the side noticed it, so they walked straight by, entered the teleportation point, and came directly to the capital of Lou Paule, North City.

The capital of the kingdom is located in the north of the center of the kingdom, and the royal academy is also among them, and it is itself a school funded by the king. There are not only magic and martial arts to learn, but also mathematics, history, art, architecture, alchemy and many other subjects, as many as 30 kinds, and it is also the highest college in the kingdom.

The academy accepted not only the children of the aristocracy, but also the outstanding commoners. If you are able to graduate from the academy normally, the kingdom will pay all expenses for your stay at the academy in full. But let's be honest, graduation wasn't easy. Among the civilians, there are less than 20 people who can successfully graduate every year, and sometimes there is not even one. Even among the aristocracy, only about 100 people can graduate every year.

Kevin used to yearn for such an institution, and it is said that his father came from Wang Li's College, but he did not graduate and only received a certificate of completion. Feeling that the tuition fees were expensive, his father taught the courses on his own, and Kevin's enlightenment education when he was a child was taught by his father. His father also often mentioned some of his situation in the academy, and Kevin could only express envy.

The teleportation point came out, took the carriage, and came directly to the gate of Wang Li Academy. The doors are carved in white marble, magnificent but not luxurious, many people walk around in robes, and the people here are all real scholars and real masters. The country vigorously cultivates the backbone of the future generation. It is also a research and development center for the latest technology.

The parrot flew out of nowhere and landed on Kevin's shoulder. Some female students on the side suddenly had their eyes lit up: "What a cute parrot, where did you buy it?"

Everyone: "......"

Everyone ignored it, and they didn't dare to ask the parrot chief where he had just gotten around. Go straight to the doorman and explain what he meant.

Just a moment, an old man walked slowly from the campus and nodded to everyone: "Is it you who are here to take over the task?"

Kevin couldn't help but be shocked when he saw someone coming: "Vice principal?"

"It's me. The other person nodded.

Kevin couldn't help but introduce a few behind him: "This is Professor Luke, the vice president of Wang Li Academy, who has solved some problems of men and is respected as the father of impotence in the world!

Everyone looked at the old man in surprise when they heard this.

Rook: "......"

"Ahem," Kevin said, "doesn't the Vice Chancellor like that?"

Luke smiled: "Actually, I have other contributions, but forget it." Come in first, stay one night, and we'll leave tomorrow. ”
