Chapter 9: Captain Oz
Duke looked at everything in front of him blankly, he didn't believe his eyes, that intermediate magician Carlos, who had a double cultivation of electricity and fire, had joined the Double Axe Mercenary Group for a long time, and his strength Duke was very clear, but he was actually bitten on the ground by a dog on the other side, and then he was caught and thrown out by the other party, and now he is lying at Duke's feet.
For a long time, the Twin Axe Mercenary Group has been synonymous with arrogance in Seabreeze City, only Duke bullied others, but he didn't expect to be bullied by others today. Duke wanted to yell, "Give it to me, kill them all!", but when this sentence came to his lips, he swallowed it back.
This time, the opponent was not mediocre, at least the two magicians on the other side were only beginners, but one of them defeated Humphrey and Edwin in front of her. Humphrey and Edwin had been following Duke for several years, and Duke knew their strength very well, but they were easily defeated by their opponents. And Carlos, a guy with eyes above the top, was actually bitten by a dog and knelt on the ground, which was really a shame for the magician. But then again, what kind of people are these people, how can even a dog be so powerful?
Duke was able to have the status he has today, and his Twin Axe Mercenary Group was able to have a place in Seabreeze City, which showed that he was not an incompetent person. Duke really can't swallow this breath, he is usually the only one who bullies others, how can he be ridden on the head by others like this today?
However, Duke, as the leader of the Twin Axe Mercenary Regiment, also has to consider the development of his subordinates. The Double Axe Mercenary Group can be based in Seabreeze City, relying on the fact that the head of the group, Duke, is relatively protective, and anyone or group will usher in the most severe retaliation if they provoke them, and the Double Axe can take revenge on others, all relying on the 4 magicians under Duke.
Now the mage is a very rare guy, and it is of course not easy for the Double Axe Mercenary Group to have 4 people at once, which also makes others think twice when facing a conflict of interest with the Double Axe, if it is not a last resort, no one wants to be an enemy of the mage.
However, now Duke has met the Ryan mercenary group who doesn't take him seriously, the latter also has a magician, and easily defeated the 3 strongest of Duke's double axe mercenary group, which made Duke have the idea of scruples for the first time, he can have a hot head, and rush up with all the strength of his men to fight with the Ryan mercenary group, but the consequence is likely to be a lose-lose situation, even if the 8 members of the Ryan mercenary group sitting there are wiped out, his own loss is absolutely unacceptable to Duke.
"If the battle is defeated...... Duke's mind could not suppress this thought, he shook his head vigorously, trying to dispel this unlucky thought out of his brain, but this inadvertent thought quickly spread in Duke's mind like a plague, and finally completely filled it.
Duke looked the same as before, standing there coldly and not saying a word, but in his heart, he knew that what he could rely on now was that the number of people far exceeded the opponent, and then when facing the magician, the number of people could not say anything, Duke himself had seen his subordinate Carlos destroy an enemy's carriage with a fireball technique, and burned all the more than ten mercenaries sitting in the carriage to death. If Duke really let his men rush up, then the female magician may not be able to do the same, and under the attack of magic, Duke does not think that his men can withstand it for long.
Once defeated, the entire Twin Axe Mercenary Regiment will no longer have a foothold in Seabreeze City, and the entire regiment will not be able to defeat a group of outsiders with a tenfold advantage in numbers, so what face does his mad dog Duke have to continue to stay in Seabreeze? And once his side loses its deterrence against other mercenary groups, maybe someone will come to the door tonight to pick up a bargain.
Due to the war, Haifeng's business is not easy to do now, and instead of lowering the asking price and barely filling his stomach, it is better to directly swallow up other competitors, of course, provided that he does not put himself in it. Now Seabreeze City has reached a certain balance, several large mercenary groups deter each other, and those small mercenary groups either huddle together, or find a strong enough backer.
Everyone secretly wants to eat their opponents, but they still maintain a harmonious atmosphere on the surface, if there is not enough reason or a perfect opportunity, no one dares to move, and whoever strikes first will invite the combined attack of other mercenary groups. Of course, this balance was silently broken after the arrival of Ryan and his party.
These somewhat messy thoughts flashed in Duke's mind, and the more Duke thought about it, the more he hated Charley, if it wasn't for this guy to cause trouble, he wouldn't have to face such an embarrassing situation. This kind of thing happened to someone else, it was a lively opera with four acts, and although Duke never saw something that only the aristocracy loved, it was definitely a great tragedy to happen to himself.
Duke made up his mind to teach this unlucky guy a hard lesson when he went back, and then warn his members that not everyone can provoke them, you bastards should show me clearly before provoking, take the matter in front of me, the two magicians on the other side are wearing robes that symbolize status, and that Charlie must be blind.
The members of the Twin Axe Mercenary Regiment waved the weapons in their hands with anger on their faces, and many of them scolded the elders of Ryan and his party. The Double Axe Mercenary Group, as the name suggests, is the best at using axes in the entire mercenary group, and almost more than ninety percent of the mercenaries in the entire group are holding two short axes, and nearly a hundred people are gathered together, which looks majestic and murderous.
However, their leader Duke is uncharacteristically silent, which makes all the members of the Double Axe Mercenary Group very different, in their opinion, their own number is ten times that of the opponent, it is a good opportunity to win with more, what to do The leader of the regiment, Duke, who has always been tyrannical, has changed from a mad dog to a dead dog, and he can't move?
There was a strange quiet scene in the entire "First Drink" bar, the mercenaries sitting on the side watching the play looked at Duke inexplicably, as well as his Double Axe Mercenary Group, and didn't understand why they didn't do it, and at the same time, many people looked at Ryan and his party thoughtfully, because the latter was actually drinking and chatting casually, ignoring the menacing Double Axe Mercenary Group, and looked like they were out of the way.
"Squeak" sounded, the door of the bar was pushed open, this originally slight sound in the quiet bar suddenly attracted the attention of the vast majority of people, basically all of them thought that this was the follow-up force of the Double Axe Mercenary Group, of course, there were a small number of people who thought that this should be the backup of Lane and his party, otherwise they were far fewer than the opponent, why did they look unhurried?
This voice also woke up Duke, who also thought that his subordinate Eden's team had arrived, and Duke looked at the door in annoyance, only to find that it was the recently formed Oz team of the Wind Mercenary Regiment that had just been formed. Duke shook his head slightly, and put his gaze back on Farass in the distance, his mind racing to find a decent excuse to leave.
Oz's entourage, which had just walked in, walked straight to the two tables of companions who were also part of the mercenary group, and the members of the Storm Mercenary Group, who were originally sitting at two tables in the bar, all stood up, and the leader of the group took a few steps towards Oz, and said with a smile: "How is it, things are going well, right?"
Oz pursed his lips and said, "Of course, such a simple thing is naturally easy to complete. Speaking of this, Oz took out a money bag from his bosom, threw it at the leader, and continued: "Captain Franco, there are 300 gold coins here, and there is also a not very good agate, which is considered an extra income. ”
The man whom Oz called Franco caught the money bag with unmistakable accuracy, but with a slight flick of his hand, he knew the amount inside, this action was very hidden, even if he stared at his hand carefully, it was difficult to detect. "Very good, Oz, you have completed very good tasks in the last three months, and when the head of the regiment comes back next month, I will propose that you be in charge of more affairs within the regiment. Franco smiled and complimented, then pulled Oz to his seat, whispering as he went, "You've come by chance, and you've got a good show." ”
"Oh?" Oz asked in surprise, "Is there anyone fighting here?"
"Haha, that's good. Franco whispered what happened just now to Oz to introduce him, for this new soldier who joined his mercenary group, Franco, as the deputy head of the regiment, attaches great importance to it, so he is also much warmer in tone, after all, the 30-year-old warrior in front of him not only has the identity of the second place in the Royal Athletic Competition, but the team he trained is equipped with a large number of magic scrolls, and the other squads in the Wind Mercenary Group are very angry, and even the head of the Wind Mercenary Group has obtained a few Fireball Scrolls from him by virtue of his position.
Oz listened to Franco's brief words, and set his sights on the protagonist of the story, and this action also made the captain of the Tempest mercenary group excited: "Faras! Lane!" Oz exclaimed excitedly: "Oh my God, you're actually here!"
Oz's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the bar, and everyone watched as the new captain of the Wind Mercenary pounced at full speed towards Ryan and his party like a child, and then flew into the air with his whole body, and just like that, he crashed into the male magician who was sitting there eating.
What happens when a warrior crashes into a mage with all his might? Just when everyone was feeling sad for the male magician, the young magician who was eating stood up with surprise on his face, and just opened his arms when he collided with Oz who pounced on him.
