In the command tent, Captain George said slowly, "The five of you are left behind because you are the best recruits in this batch, and this mission is a test for you, and it is also related to the question of where you will go in the future,......。 Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Payne was not at all interested in this cliché, and he finally summed up what the Captain had said above into three points, cooperation, improvisation, and not letting him down.

As for the content of the mission, George said he did not know either, and the Intelligence Service always released it the day before the mission.

Back in the boot camp, Payne, as the commander-in-chief of this mission, after conveying the spirit of the superior leadership, put forward his own requirements,—— that is, with him as the center, everyone must obey orders.

To put it simply, Payne always thought that this was the way meetings should be.

Based on the experience of his previous life, Payne was still quite confident in himself, he thought, it was just to command a group of people to fight monsters in the wild, he didn't think it required any technical content, let alone with the assistance of four deputies.

Compared with the captain's verbosity, Payne was much more straightforward, and after he made his request, he directly dragged more than fifty people to the training ground for running-in, and he needed to understand the situation of the team more closely.

In the evening of the next day, Payne arrived at the Intelligence Division with the four vice-captains of the offensive and shield teams.

It is said that it is an intelligence department, but in fact, it is a large tent with layers of security set up around it. At least that's how Payne understands it.

The five of them were received by a yellow-haired man in his forties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who looked very energetic and kind.

"Hello, first of all, let me introduce myself, my name is Junior, and I am the commissioner of the intelligence department, that is, the specialized person in charge of the issuance of your mission, please sit down, I always feel tired when I stand and talk. ”

After the six of them were seated, Payne noticed that Junior was holding two parchment rolls in his hand, and he thought that one of them should be the mission he was about to perform.

"Which of you is literate?" said Junior, looking at the five in front of him with a smile on his face, and all six of them shook their heads at the same time, "Okay, then I'll explain to you the content of the mission." ”

"Baron Wright's manor was attacked by an unknown number of orcs yesterday, resulting in the destruction of vast flax fields, and Lord Baron has asked us to deal with these beasts as soon as possible, for which he is willing to pay five gold coins. Juniel paused, "And as it stands, two knights have been seriously injured. ”

"What! the knight is badly wounded?" asked Padgett with a look on her face eating flies.

Seeing the surprised expressions on the faces of the five people, Junior shrugged his shoulders and continued, "You may have understood. The bad news is that it can hurt the knight, which shows how tricky the task is. ”

"But the good news is that the Baron has only five knights, and three of them are over sixty years old, and I have heard that they are all wine bags and rice bags. Juniel smiled and continued, "Plus... If you can set the trap in advance, the orcs can only be called half-beasts. Therefore, this mission is not as difficult as you imagined, which is why this task has been assigned to you. ”

Payne said in his heart that there was something wrong with this person, and if he said the point directly, it would be over, and he almost lost his temper.

Junior smiled, "I guess you can all understand the map, right?"

The five nodded at the same time, they had all been trained to recognize maps before, which was a basic requirement as a captain.

It seems that the captain has a candidate in mind for a long time, Payne thought.

Payne took the lacquered map, then carefully opened the lacquered seal, glanced at it and passed it to Quentin next to him, and then asked Junior, "The red cross on the map is Wright Manor, right?"

"Exactly. Junior nodded, "Well, if there are no other questions, I won't send you away." Oh, by the way, the content of the mission needs to be kept strictly secret, including the route of the mission, I think you should understand, right? ”

After Junior handed over another parchment to Captain Payne, he sent it off. He looked really tired.

Early the next morning, a procession of more than 50 people, ready for food and water, set out.

Wright Manor is on the other side of Thorn Mountain, and as long as you climb over this mountain and pass through two villages, you will not be far from the manor. If you're fast, you should be able to get there in the early evening.

Climbing the mountain was of course nothing for these recruits who had already passed the physical fitness test, and they climbed to the top of the mountain at noon.

Payne stood on a rock at the top of the mountain, took out the telescope on his waist and observed it for a while, his face became gloomy, "Damn, why hasn't the fog cleared at this time?" Pierce. ”

"Captain, please command. Pierce said respectfully.

He had also heard of the sudden evaporation of the three brown bears, and he was also present when Ahab was poisoned, so as long as he was not too stupid, he knew where the three had gone.

"Rest and eat where you are, tell them... Be fast. Payne said.

"Yes, Captain. Pierce immediately organized a meal and conveyed the captain's orders.

"Quentin, map. As soon as Payne stretched out his hand, the map appeared in his hand.

Payne laid the map flat on the ground, then took the compass given to him by the captain from his backpack and double-checked his bearings.

The most feared thing on the march is to get lost, and although this possibility is almost negligible, the possibility of a detour is still there. Commanding a team for the first time, Payne wanted to be the best he could be. — and he did get into the role very quickly.

Ten minutes later, the team was assembled, and Payne ordered to move on.

According to the map, their destination was sixty miles north of Fort Kurster. Of course, Payne was illiterate, but he could still read the city markers on the map.

Around the city there were seven aristocratic estates, and Wright Manor was one of them.
