Although the ground was frozen and stiff, after some time, all the corpses were buried, and the armor-piercing arrows that were fired were never recovered. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The wounded were carefully sent back, wounds were cleaned, dressed, bandages, and those who were slightly injured were fine, and many of them shouted excitedly for wine.

It's just that a few seriously injured people are really too seriously injured and their lives are dying, Ronald has no choice but to exchange some elixirs from the system to recuperate and hang their lives and give them to take, under the effect of the medicine, their breath has also stabilized, at least out of danger of life.

And this move once again made the members of the group very grateful, and they couldn't wait to give their lives to Ronald.

Loyalty is the magic weapon of managing a team to win, and Ronald is never too much about it.

Ronald took this opportunity to start selecting from the members of the group who had fought bravely before and killed at least one enemy, and after using the Bandit Eye to confirm that the loyalty of all three people had reached more than 60 points, he simply exchanged each of them for 'Fighting Qi' and 'Tempest Sword Technique'.

With Cullen's experience, Ronald also found that the Tempest Sword Technique is still quite suitable for this world, because it is not as subtle and difficult to learn as the Songshan Sword Technique, but it is suitable for fighting, especially in group battles.

The Tempest Sword Technique seems to have been created by nature to create popular swordsmanship for occasions like helping in battles or on the battlefield.

As for Scott, who was captured alive, he was directly tied up and thrown into the deepest part of the cave. There are two strange poisons, the sad crisp breeze and the ten-spiced soft tendon scatter, so Ronald is not worried that he will be able to escape.

But this Scott was also strange, after being thrown into the depths of the cave, he didn't say a word, just lay there with tears streaming down his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

Tears flowed because of the medicinal effect of the sad and crisp breeze.

In addition, Ronald even suspected that this Scott was like a philosopher lying there thinking about life, even if he was untied now, and then fed him an antidote, this guy would not bother to escape.

In the stone chamber of the cave, in front of Ronald stood Duruna, Cowan, and Cullen.

The three of them are currently the core team of the Hydra Thieves Group, and they are also the captains of the three squads, and Ronald must discuss the next development of Hydra with the three of them.

"Sit. Ronald waved.

The three of them stood there respectfully, and after glancing at each other, no one dared to sit down.

"Commander, let's just stand. Duruna looked at Ronald with a very respectful attitude.

"Yes, the head of the regiment sits, let's just stand. Cullen grinned, looking very proud, as if it was a very proud thing to be able to stand here and listen to Ronald's lecture.

is worthy of a person whose loyalty has reached 100 points, and enlightenment is definitely not comparable to ordinary people.

As for Cowen, he didn't say anything flattering or flattering, but looking at Ronald's eyes, in addition to respect, there was more of a strong sense of fear.

In addition to loyalty, mystery and fear, it is sometimes a necessary means to control subordinates.

"Now that Scott is in our hands, I think it's time to think about how to demand the ransom next. Ronald looked at the three of them and asked, "Do you have any ideas?" Cowen, you have experience, how did you do this kind of thing before?"

Cowan was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "Commander, I have been a bandit for many years, but it is really the first time to kidnap and blackmail nobles, and I have no experience." ”

Duruna shrugged his shoulders and said, "Commander, there is indeed a custom of paying ransom among nobles, but it is always when the nobles are defeated in a duel, or when the two countries are at war, they are captured on the battlefield and ask for ransom. I've never heard of someone like ours kidnapped by a group of thieves for ransom. ”

Cullen's eyes widened as he looked at the two of them, "Haven't any bandits kidnapped nobles before?"

Cowan and Duruna smiled bitterly and shook their heads.

"At least as far as I know, it doesn't seem to be. Duruna whispered.

Cullen took a deep breath and became a little afraid: "Then they will definitely retaliate, right? The nobles are very good-looking, we kidnapped Scott, and his family will not end up like this." ”

Ronald smiled and said confidently: "Revenge is certain, a nobleman was kidnapped by a group of thieves and blackmailed. Whether they are willing to pay the ransom or not, there will certainly be retaliation afterwards. ”

"But you don't have to worry too much, there is nothing to be afraid of nobles. Didn't we wipe out all of the nobles' family private soldiers today? This shows that the nobles are not as terrifying as they imagined. ”

Ronald stood up, walked around the stone chamber, and continued: "Originally, I wanted to expand our influence in the Valentine Mountains as much as possible while the snow closed the mountain. However, with this incident, I decided to give up on this plan. ”

When Duruna heard this, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly said, "Commander, do you want to throw this responsibility on the other thieves?"

Ronald laughed: "Hahaha, how is it possible, we reported the name of Hydra in front of Scott, as long as his family ransomes him back safely, how stupid do you think Scott must be to get his target wrong?"

"Then, Commander...... What are your plans?"

Duruna didn't understand it either.

Ronald looked at the three of them, his eyes flashed coldly, and said, "My plan is that the whole group leaves the Valentine Mountains!"

"What!"

The three of them exclaimed in surprise and looked at Ronald.

"The Valentine Mountains are too small and there are too many dangers. There has been news that there is a legendary archmage's private laboratory in the Valentine Mountains, and now we are ready to extort a huge ransom from the Prescott family, and continuing to stay in the Valentine Mountains will only bring us ruin. ”

"Of course, I won't force you to leave here, and you can tell the members below what I think later. Those who are willing to follow me, I welcome. If you want to stay in the Valentine Mountains, I don't have a hard time. ”

"Commander, my Cullen's life has long been the commander, wherever you go, I will follow you. Cullen looked at him and said with an oath.

Duruna shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Commander, I am not from the Valentine Mountains in the first place, and I naturally have no worries about leaving now. It's just that our Hydra Thieves Group has only been created for a short time, so is it going to disperse like this?"

Cullen frowned, grinned, and said, "Yes, many people in the regiment are from the vicinity of the Valentine Mountains, let them leave here and go to other places...... I think a lot of people have ideas. ”

"It's not about dispersing, it's about going through a 'new life'!" Ronald looked at them and said, "I'm still the same sentence, I'm willing to follow along, I welcome it." If you want to stay, I'm not embarrassed...... It's just that those who are willing to follow me today will be people that Ronald can trust in the future, and I will never treat them badly. ”

"It's reassuring to have the regiment commander's words, I think there are many people who will be willing to follow the regiment commander. Cullen nodded and said.

Ronald smiled and said no more.

The Hydra Thieves Regiment was able to grow from a low-level thief group to the current level, although the number was still small, but the equipment was not much better than that of the regular army. And this is all thanks to the equipment that Ronald bought from the Big Bandit system.

Ronald's armed members of the Hydra, although they spent a lot of team points, but now he still has at least about 10,000 team points in his hands, even if he leaves the Valentine Mountains, even if no one follows him away, he has nothing to fear.

Because no matter where he goes, as long as he has a little manpower, Ronald is confident that he can rebuild Hydra again!

"Cut off one head, and two more will grow. Ronald looked at them, his fingers slowly rubbed, and his expression did not show any nervousness: "Hydra will not be destroyed, even if there is only one person left, Hydra will rise again!"

Cowan looked at Ronald and asked, "Commander, if someone is unwilling to leave with the commander, will those equipment be taken back?"

"It doesn't matter if the rest is there, but the crossbow must be recovered, and even if it is bad, it must be destroyed. Ronald said slowly with a cold glint in his eyes.

Those plate armor, longsword Ronald didn't care, because the equipment wasn't worth a lot of money in the system store. But those repeaters are much more expensive, and more importantly, the world has not yet developed the technology to manufacture repeaters.

Ronald didn't want these repeaters to fall into the hands of other forces, and it wouldn't be fun if someone else used a repeater against him in the future.

Cowan nodded, "Understood, Captain." ”

"Cowen, would you like to come with me?" Ronald asked, looking at Cowen,

Cowan grinned: "The head of the regiment has said that whoever follows you will be beneficial in the future, and I, Cowen, am not stupid, of course I know how to choose." ”

"However, I promised you to avenge you, and now that I am gone, I don't know when I will be able to return. ...... over there, Ronald frowned slightly, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"Commander, it doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry for a day or two to take revenge. What's more, if the problem said by the head of the regiment really arises, Qinghuo may not be able to survive this time. When the time comes, I don't have to do it, those guys will be finished on their own. Cowan grinned, his eyes full of murder.

Hearing Cowan's words, Ronald nodded with satisfaction.

In fact, if Cowan must insist, it is not impossible to concentrate all his forces to extinguish the current internal and external troubles before leaving. It's just a lot more work. Now Cowan can take the initiative to give up, not only is there a lot less trouble, but more importantly, it shows that Cowan has begun to think from the perspective of the Hydra team.

"Commander, after we leave, do you want to ask for the ransom in person?" Cullen scratched his nose and asked with a look of excitement.

"Of course, 100,000 gold coins, how could I watch this ransom run away in vain?" Ronald laughed: "After leaving the Valentine Mountains, let's put on makeup, dress up as mercenaries or rangers, and personally come to the door to ask for the ransom to ......"
