However, although the mercenaries who hoped to receive the task left, some people stayed, among them, a middle-aged man wearing an ordinary swordsman uniform stepped forward and said, "Since you are also mercenaries, I don't know if you are willing to take my mission?"

I was intrigued and asked, "I don't know what kind of mission it is?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "In Lower Mirante, my wife is planning to go to the capital of the Guchas Empire, because along the way, not only will you have to pass through the Chaotic Plains, but also through some misty forests, which is full of dangers. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoSo, you need to find some mercenaries for protection. This is an A-level mission, but the performance of the card along the way determines the mission points, and there is already an A-level mercenary group to protect it, but because almost all the members of the group are male surnames, my young lady hopes to find a few more female mercenaries to protect. I wonder if you're interested?"

I was so disappointed that Alice was about to refuse, but Alice replied, "Yes, yes! ”

Filiya looked at me hesitantly, and said, "Xiaotian, do we want to take it?"

I suddenly remembered that she was originally a member of the Guchas Empire, and it seems that she is still a little resistant to returning to the Guchas Empire. If I had gone somewhere else, or I would have refused, but for now, I decided to go ahead.

"We took this task, I don't know, when will we leave?" I said with a slight smile at Firia.

"Tomorrow morning, we will meet outside the South Gate. When the time comes, I will take the initiative to contact you. Once the quest is completed, you will be rewarded with 1,000 gold each. The middle-aged swordsman said busily.

I smiled indifferently, doing mercenary tasks is naturally not for the reward, but for the experience. That's really nothing to us. The middle-aged swordsman should be a butler-like figure, he has been carefully checking our faces, and after finding that we are so bland, the secret path is indeed so. In his opinion, we may be aristocrats somewhere, who are bored for a while to come to play as mercenaries.

After saying goodbye to the middle-aged swordsman, we found a hotel to stay in. However, a peculiar guest was immediately ushered in. It was a magician, but he wore a heavy hood of magic robes and completely hid his appearance.

"Take the liberty of disturbing, and please Mr. Long don't be surprised. "The magician who took off his cloak was a middle-aged man, and judging by the magic badge on his chest, he should be an earth-based magician.

"I wonder what Mr. Magician is looking for me?" I said curiously, I didn't know the person in front of me at all.

"Let me introduce myself first. I, Anstrand, am the staff of the city lord, because Mr. Long has made too much trouble in the city twice, and the villain has to come to visit. The magician said flatly.

I was slightly startled, but I was immediately relieved. As the lord of the city, it is not surprising to find out that I have a connection with these two things. If we can't find out the relationship between these two things and me, then it can only be said that they are incompetent. However, in that case, judging from the attitude he had taken last time when he had helped the cardinal block the streets and the hotel, shouldn't he have secretly mobilized his men to prepare to deal with me?

I said calmly: "I don't know what Mr. Staff is looking for me this time?"

Onstrand smiled and said, "Although it is true that the men of our city guards participated in the siege of you last time by the Holy See, this is only the initiative of the captain of the city guard, and that person has been deposed by the city lord, which is not our intention. Moreover, after the incident, we have consulted His Majesty the King, and his attitude on the matter is to remain neutral without offending the Holy See. Come to think of it, Mr. Long should understand our troubles. ”

I smiled and said, "In that case, what are you here for?"

Onstrand said helplessly: "I just want to know the purpose of Mr. Long's coming to this city? As far as I know, the Holy See has sent a small group of members of the Inquisition for the purpose of Mr. Long. ”

I smiled slightly, after all, they were still afraid that I would clash with the Holy See again here. After all, if there were three consecutive killings of the Holy See in Bika City, no matter how much the city lord pushed it, the Holy See would definitely think that this incident had something to do with him.

"I'm here this time, just like the previous two times, just passing through. If no one from the Holy See comes to trouble tonight, I will naturally leave Bika early tomorrow morning. So, you don't have to worry at all. "Although their purpose was just to get me to leave quickly, after all, I told him an important news, so I told him directly about my arrangements.

Unstrand put his mind at ease and said seriously: "Then I'll go first." If it weren't for the limitations of his family and country, the villain's attitude towards the Holy See would be the same as that of Mr. ”

I nodded knowingly, watched him put on his magic hood and leave, and couldn't help but smile mysteriously at the thought of the Inquisition's men. The Holy See is really unpopular! However, if so many people dare not speak out against it, its strength is naturally not ordinarily strong. I just don't know, what kind of outstanding talents will be among the people sent to deal with me?

Ever since Filia knew that I could summon the dragon's help at any time, she had no worries about my safety. After all, there are too many legends of the dragon clan, and in the eyes of many people on the mainland, the dragon clan is a symbol of strength.

"Xiaotian, how are you going to deal with those people?"

I smiled indifferently and said, "Wait for the Alliance Mercenary Group to send me the exact news, or they will find it themselves." Now we are a serious mercenary group, and the most important thing is naturally to do mercenary missions. That kind of little thing, it's not worth worrying about it. ”

Philia smiled, thinking that the Inquisition, which everyone on the mainland feared, was not as important as a mercenary mission in my eyes, but the pride in my heart did not need to be mentioned.

After a night of silence, early the next morning, we arrived at the gate of the southern city.

It wasn't until I saw Mirante that I understood why such a simple escort mission was actually Class A, because in addition to a carriage carrying people, they also had dozens of wagons. It's simply a caravan.

In addition to the carriage, the convoy was clearly divided into two columns, which presumably belonged to the owner's manpower and the A-class mercenary group mentioned by Mirante. There are more than 500 people on both sides, and together there are more than 1,000 people. With such a caravan, it is natural that the thieves of the Chaotic Plains will be attracted one after another, so it is no wonder that it will be an A-level mission.

Mirante helped me meet his wife and the leader of the A-class mercenary group. Madame de Montessia was the host of the trip, and like Philia, she was veiled and elegant, and brought with her a little boy who was not more than six years old. She looked very kind, and was very pleasantly surprised to see Filia and Alice, but it was not difficult to get along. However, the A-level mercenary captain is not so easy to talk to.

His red hair was like fire, his face was gloomy, and when he saw our mercenary group, which was almost all composed of girls, he sneered and said angrily: "Dear madam, do you think that we can't guarantee your safety, and we still want to find such a useless mercenary group?"

Madame de Mondesia said kindly, "Mr. Mandello has overtaken it. I just found another mercenary group, not because I don't trust you and your Flame mercenary group. It's just that because we still have many female dependents, it will be inconvenient for you to protect them, so I hope to find a few powerful female mercenaries. ”

When the red-haired man Mandelo heard his wife say this, his face suddenly softened a lot, and he said, "So that's the case, that's my misunderstanding." In that case, please restrain them so that they don't interfere with our regular patrols and vigilance. With that, he turned around and walked away.

Madame Montessia said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I don't think Captain Mandello has any ill intentions, please don't mind." From now on, you will join our convoy! The vigilance of the periphery will be left to Captain Mandero. ”

I smiled indifferently and said, "Thank you, madam, this is the best arrangement." ”

The huge convoy set off immediately.

I rode on top of Xiaobai and walked with Mirante, the butler who rode a landcco. Mirante was obviously a very talkative person, and he talked to me about the sights along the way, and occasionally talked about the purpose of their trip. Originally, the purpose of their trip was only to visit relatives in the Ottoid Empire, but because they found some scarce goods in the Gulchas Empire in the city of Bica, they decided to buy the next batch and ship it back. Such things are not uncommon, and many nobles will do some of these transactions in passing. As long as there are no major problems on the road, even if you add the cost of the mercenary group, you can get a huge profit from it in the end. It's just that a relatively large investment, and a large caravan can easily attract a large number of thieves, so the nobles who don't have some strength and capital don't dare to do this.

"Mr. Long, you're not real mercenaries, are you?" asked Mirante tentatively.

"Why, don't we look like mercenaries?" I said strangely.

"Of course not. Mirante confirmed: "You all have extraordinary temperaments, and the veiled one must be a noble lady, and her bearing is no worse than that of my wife." The twins should be her handmaidens, and the handmaidens who can have the strength of the Great Sword Master are naturally not low. And that magician, it should not be inferior to the magister, this kind of strength is not much worse than the flames. There are also elves, in addition to the alliance mercenary group on the continent, how can there be a human mercenary group that the elves are willing to join?"
