Chapter 21: The Six Arrows Mercenary Regiment (2)
Burry pointed to a woman about thirty years old sitting next to him and said to Ryan, "This is Daphne, a thief from our mercenary group, and in this adventure, she is mainly responsible for dealing with those traps, and Tdaine will help her." Tedain, who was roasting meat on the side, smiled and continued to roast the scimitarked antelope.
"Of course, there are dangers to come along with the adventure, and if someone gets hurt, we have Pastor Dennis to take care of the wound," Burry said. When facing enemies, I'm good at bows and arrows and can do long-range attacks, while Mark is good at melee and is the first line of defense for our mercenary group. But we lacked a magician, so ......"
Ryan nodded, and he said to Burry, "Why don't you have a mage in your mercenary group?"
Burry explained, "My six Arrows mercenary group is not a lot of people, and we rely on teammates to complete the mission. Many times, in our adventures, we try to rely on the cooperation of our companions to deal with the things that need to be done by mages, which is also no way, the price of hiring mages is not a small amount, and generally a small mercenary group like us can't afford to hire them. And inviting a magician to become a member of our mercenary group, it is even more difficult, strong magicians will receive a large amount of gold subsidies from the magic guild every month, so they don't care about the income of the adventure, and ordinary magicians will also choose those mercenary groups with a large number of people. ”
The woman named Daphne frowned at Burry, she seemed to be tired of Burry's politeness to Ryan, and she stood up with her feet strained. Daphne took a few steps towards Ryan, looked at Ryan's face with her eyes, and said impatiently: "The matter has been said, agree or not, you just need to give an answer!"
Without waiting for Ryan to answer, Burry quickly stood up, and he shouted loudly, "Daphne, shut up, they are all our guests, even if we don't agree to participate in our adventure, we can be friends." After saying that, Burry pulled Daphne away, and then smiled at Ryan and explained, "Don't take it to heart, she's like this, she usually doesn't speak politely at all, but she has a very kind heart." ”
Ryan looked at Daphne's indifference and Burry's smile, and shook his head with a smile. Bury misunderstood what he meant, and said with some regret, "Don't you want to? That's a pity." ”
Ryan smiled, and he said to Burry, "No, you're mistaken. I shook my head and remembered several of my former companions, who were all like this, at first they were unforgiving, but after getting along for a long time, I slowly realized that everyone actually cared about each other very much. After all, they are companions who are adventuring together, and at the critical moment, they have to entrust their lives to each other. ”
Bury agreed with Ryan's last words, and he nodded his head and praised Ryan, saying, "Yes, yes, what is a companion? It's that I saved you, you saved me, and gave each other's defenseless backs to each other's guys." ”
The female thief named Daphne was also surprised that Ryan said this, he did not expect this young man to be able to say such a thing, which is usually felt only by veteran mercenaries who have been adventuring for many years. Originally, Daphne thought that Ryan was so young, and he was wearing a magician's robe, with the badge of a magic apprentice on his chest. How capable can a young magic apprentice be?And the failure of the previous adventure of the Six Arrows Mercenary Regiment was precisely because of the reckless actions of one companion, which led to the death of two people.
Ryan thought for a moment, and said to Burry, "Do you think that's good?" Burry nodded, motioning for Ryan to take his own seat. Ryan glanced at Allendo, and the two of them stood up together and slowly walked into the distance.
Seeing Ryan and his companions walking away, the long, burly, bare-headed warrior Mark said to Burry in a sullen voice, "Do you need to be so polite? ”
Burry glared at Mark, who immediately shut his mouth obediently. Bury turned his head to look at Daphne and said in a very serious tone: "I know that you usually speak very loudly, not politely at all, and have nothing to do with our own people, but after all, they are my invited guests, so you should pay attention to them." ”
Daphne flipped her wrist, and a dagger appeared in the palm of her hand, Daphne moved her fingers slightly, slowly fiddled with the dagger, and said to Bury slowly, "I know what I'm doing." In short, I would never give my back to useless companions. It wasn't ...... last time" Speaking of this, Daphne remembered her dead lover, her eyes turned red, she immediately raised her head, and then reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes.
Burry sighed, and he comforted Daphne, "Don't think about it anymore, Bob killed his companion for his recklessness, but he also paid the price for his actions." Those who die, don't hold grudges anymore. ”
"Of course you don't care!" Daphne said categorically, staring at Burry, "but Angus is my lover, and he was killed by such an incompetent companion as Bob!
Bury stared into Daphne's eyes, and he said solemnly, "I am the head of the regiment, and I will be responsible for every member." ”
Daphne stared at Burry for a moment, and when Ryan and Elendor finished discussing and slowly walked back, Daphne returned to her seat and sat down.
Ryan and Alendor sat back in their seats, and Ryan said to Burry, "We discussed it and thought it should be a good adventure, so we decided to join you. But I don't know what we need to do?"
Burry seemed happy to hear this, and he patted Ryan, who was sitting beside him, on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mr. Magician." As is customary, when a magician is on an adventure, he is not required to be present for general things during the adventure, you just need to be prepared for everything, and when we need you, please don't skimp on your magic. ”
Ryan smiled and said, "This is natural. But my companions are also going to join in. ”
Burry bowed slightly, and he said to Ryan in a natural tone, "Of course. Your companion usually stays with you, and he is in charge of your safety. I'll take care of the day-to-day business of our adventures, and your friends won't need to do it. ”
"Okay," Ryan and Alendor replied in unison.
