After the battle with the city guards, no mercenaries who were not long-sighted came to the door of the hotel to block them, and the mercenaries seemed to be shocked by the strength shown by Seth and the fat man and others that day, or maybe because they knew the precedent for the mercenary competition, they felt that there was no need to entangle with Seth.

The innkeeper no longer mentioned the words of letting Seth and the others 'get out', but on the contrary, he reduced some fees.

Seth, Cardshawn and the others went out to hang out, and no one stopped them from saying something inexplicable, and no one watched, just being pointed at and whispering from a distance, after the Wildfire Mercenary Group appeared that time, they didn't even show up again, as if they had forgotten their entanglement with the Eternal Mercenary Group.

Everything is as calm as the rippled surface of the water, but it is not known how many undercurrents there are beneath the surface.

The 'Blackwood Token' that Set got from Arthur is made of unknown materials, some of them are like wood, but they are heavy, and the front and back are the same as the mercenary group long card, with a faint magical light, which is an anti-counterfeiting magic mark.

Such a small brand, but caused the waves of Bell City, fortunately did not fall out, if it was obtained by a mercenary group of average strength, I am afraid that I don't know how many bloody cases have happened, if Seth had not confronted the city guards and Arthur with a tough attitude that day, showing the peerless strength of the eternal mercenary group, I am afraid that at this time, I don't know how many coveted mercenaries have been provoked.

When Arthur returned to the mansion and fired a fire, he immediately ordered his men to start preparing for the pre-selection of the mercenary competition, which soon became known to everyone and was set up in the main square in the center of Bell City.

The square was originally a place for the residents of the city to relax, and there was a lot of traffic, but now it is blocked so well that no one is allowed to pass, and there is no other way to go, and the square that can accommodate several thousand people is full of laborers, and from a distance, you can see the rudiments of some seats and stands.

In the streets and alleys, there were many soldiers carrying pails of paste and stacks of posters. The content is naturally about the preliminaries of the mercenary competition: Bell City has been in the mercenary competition for many years, and almost all of them are at the bottom, so this time the governor has found another shortcut and no longer recommends mercenary groups to participate. Instead, the mercenary competition preliminaries are held to elect the top ten mercenary groups in the area to which Bell City belongs, and the top one or two can participate in the mercenary competition, and the third to tenth places also have their own rewards.

The first place will be rewarded in addition to the quota for the Mercenary Tournament. There is also a gold medal that reads 'First Mercenary Regiment', with a delicate image of a dragon engraved on the back of the plaque, and a line of words 'Bell City Area', this gold medal is called the Golden Dragon Medal, from a certain point of view, owning this brand is equivalent to having the reputation of the first mercenary regiment in the Bell City area - in addition to these, there are also bonuses of 200 gold coins and some preferential policies given by the Governor's Palace, such as partial tax exemption, such as exemption from military service, and you don't have to retreat when you meet nobles......

The same goes for second place. In addition to the qualifications to participate in the mercenary competition, there is also a silver medal, the front is written 'Second Mercenary Group', the back is depicted as a unicorn, and naturally there is a line of small words 'Bell City Area', this brand is called the Silver Beast Card, which is a symbol of honor like the Golden Dragon Card, and also has some preferential policies and a hundred gold coin rewards.

After the third place, he was not eligible to participate in the mercenary competition, and he also had a silver medal. But there is no pattern, just a few words 'Third Mercenary Group' and 'Fourth Mercenary Group'......

The third place is rewarded with 50 gold coins, and the 4th to 10th places are rewarded with 20 gold coins and a silver medal for the ranking. That's not there.

The announcement also said that this ranking is not static, for example, the fourth-place mercenary group feels that the strength of its mercenary group has grown, and it can challenge the third, second or even first, as long as it wins, then it can seize the opponent's ranking. However, if it fails, then it will not even be able to maintain its own ranking, and the mercenary group that follows will be postponed to the previous one - for example, if the fourth place challenge fails, then the fifth place will go up to the first place to make up the fourth place, and then move forward in this way, and finally vacate one place, which will be fought by those mercenary groups that do not have the top ten.

If the challenge is successful, the same is true!

This announcement caused an uproar in Bell City, and many mercenary groups were extremely excited, in their opinion, this was a recognition of the mercenaries by the Governor, and it was also the beginning of the mercenaries being able to exhale and raise their eyebrows, while many old mercenary groups were a little worried, although this way encouraged the mercenaries on the surface, but there was no limit to the competition, but it seemed that they did not have any good intentions.

Fame and fortune are moving, especially for mercenaries, there is a golden dragon card or a silver beast card, in the Bell City area, that is a symbol of status, if it is really not good, there is a silver medal of the top ten mercenary groups, but there are more monks and less porridge, just ten brands, and what happens in the future because of this brand, then you have to see.

The announcement was written in front of Seth, and Seth looked at it for a long time, the fat man was whistling leisurely, and Cad and Sean were whispering on the side, very excited, for this preliminaries, they were very much looking forward to it, and the young man's ignorant wine likes to be lively, just like Gandalf said about the two of them: the head is filled with muscles.

The announcement is clearly written and fair, and some of the words are used in an uplifting way, understood from the whole description, full of support for the focus on the mercenary profession and its development, literally, very positive.

However, because of Gandalf's analysis, Seth naturally would not be as ignorant as Cardshaun, he stared at the announcement, his face wandered with clouds, and in the rules column, he saw something that was not good for the Eternal Mercenary Regiment.

The rules of the game are very simple, that is, the strength is strong, because there are too many mercenary groups participating in the competition, so the elimination system is carried out, each mercenary group has to play ten games, as long as there is a loss, it will be reduced to the next batch of games, ten times the game wins, and continue to compete, until the ranking is promoted.

And those who lose are not without opportunities, and when the rankings come out, each mercenary group will have a chance to challenge, and if the challenge wins, it will replace the defeated mercenary group!

There are no loopholes in this rule, but the key is ten matches, which, according to the above, must be played by different members of the mercenary group!

This is equivalent to directly leaving aside the first-level mercenary group, there are only five members of the first-level mercenary group, although most of them have many supernumerary members, but since they are supernumerary members, their strength is naturally worse.

For the Eternal Mercenary Group, this is particularly excessive, the members of the Sett Mercenary Group are not afraid of the game, but their people plus Cadshawn cannot reach ten people, and Cadshawn's strength can be known directly without playing.

This is clearly done by Arthur on purpose!(To be continued.) )
