Chapter 15: A Drink and a Peck

readx; The gray-robed ** master didn't pay attention to the colorful expressions on the faces of the two children next to him, and then said with a smile: "You two, have you always wanted to join the little mercenary group?"

The two little boys were stunned by the news of Amy Harbour's uncle, no wonder...... In the Duke of Tongyunguan's mansion, Young Marshal Chi Changyun was polite to this old magician, it turned out to be an elder? Then he immediately heard the news that he could join the little mercenary group, and the eyes of the two little boys immediately began to flash with infinite golden stars, is it really fake? Everyone knows that joining the small mercenary group is equivalent to making a lot of money, as we all know, since this time the Pan-continental War, the biggest winner is probably the little mercenary group. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter several wars, hundreds of young aristocrats were born.

"Help me get this letter over. Remember, it must be handed over directly to Horns, the deputy head of the small mercenary group, if it is handed over, then I will guarantee that you will join the small mercenary group, if you can't hand it over, or you will hand it over to the wrong person......" The old magician smiled and did not continue.

"Don't worry!" the two little boys were about to jump up: "The great leader Amy Haber taught us that we should eat people with short mouths and take people with short hands, collect money from people, and eliminate disasters for others!"

Is this what Amy said? Lu'er looked surprised, how did this sound a bit like the famous words of the mercenary empire's Western Heavenly King Hongxing Haonange?

"Hehe, this is a test of your ability to do things. The old mage didn't mind if he was wrong at all, and his face turned into a flower: "Don't even be unable to enter the headquarters of the little mercenary group." ”

The inspection outside Moyada City was not too strict, and Ah Lang and Ling Tong entered the city with a simple registration as gray mercenaries.

The headquarters of the small mercenary group is easy to find, since Amy took the position of Lord Lin He, the small mercenary group has completed the process of transforming from mercenaries to regular army, and the largest residential city guard in Moyada City has been requisitioned as the temporary military headquarters of the northern theater of the empire.

Outside the gate alone, there were six sentinels, three mercenaries and three regular soldiers, led by a young mercenary and an officer with the rank of imperial guerrilla on his shoulders.

"What's the matter with the two little brothers?" are all mercenaries, and the young mercenary cadres are full of enthusiasm in their words. After the small mercenary group became famous, there were always some young mercenaries who wanted to join, and maybe the two small-looking children in front of them also had such thoughts.

The two little boys did not have any timidity on their faces, and said with a big grin: "Help go in and say, we want to see your deputy head Horns, and ask him to come and pick us up quickly." ”

What are these words? These two children don't have a high fever, right? The young mercenary cadre has a good temper, and the officer next to him can't suppress the fire!

Who is Horns? Now acting acting Northern Theater General. The Northern Theater is a large war zone, and the general's military rank is on par with the deputy chief of the Imperial Department, and the deputy chief is on par with the deputy minister of the empire, which is one level higher than the secretary of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Agriculture. These two little kids are going to see Master Horns, and they're going to be greeted by adults? It's just looking for death.

The officer glared, and the blue hairpin above his head trembled: "You two little things, quickly hide away, otherwise you will be arrested and locked up in a water prison." ”

If it was in peacetime, the two little ones would definitely be scared, the regular army would have a deterrent effect on mercenaries, not to mention that the two children were gray mercenaries. Now the situation is different, first, the Stygian Fang Mage said that this is the time to test the abilities of the two of them; second, the Stygian Fang is the great leader Amy's own uncle, in this sense, Horns is just a deputy leader, what is it? Holding the sword above Amy's own uncle, Ah Lang and Ling have no fear.

"Hmph...... If you delay things, how can you be a junior officer who can bear this heavy responsibility?" Ah Lang pursed his lips, and with a few words, he raised the fire of the officer in his 30s, and reached out to grab Ah Lang's neck.

"Don't worry, don't worry. The young mercenary cadre was the mercenary Hunyang who was brought back from the Flower of Demon Jing when Amy went out wandering last time, and he had already heard that the two children were accents near Tongyun Pass, and they had a taste of meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country, so he hurriedly grabbed the officer next to him: "What is the matter with you two children looking for the deputy head of the regiment?"

Belch...... In fact, Hunyang was a little self-inflicted, and the two children glanced at the former noble knight.

Ah Lang and Ling Tong are not fuel-efficient lamps, especially after being able to make friends with the uncle of the great leader Amy, these two children really hope that the officer who is not long-eyed will put on his collar, and finally give himself a big mouth, and then ...... Hum...... According to the teachings of the great Amy Haber, it is not false that he drinks gruel every day, and even small pickles have to be saved?

The emperor ** guerrilla master didn't know that he had a face in front of the poor god, and was pulled back by Hunyang.

"Of course there's something big. I am very responsible to tell you that if things are delayed, neither of you can afford to take this responsibility. Let's go and report it. Ah Lang looked up at Hunyang's eyes and said word by word.

Hunyang was a little dizzy, what was the origin of these two children? Why are they so big? The head of the regiment and the deputy head of the regiment were not so good when they first came out of the mountain, right?"

"Well, the children can be taught. Ah Lang nodded and praised Hunyang: "You just said that Amy's uncle is here, let Horns come out quickly." ”

This time, even Hunyang and the two little mercenaries behind him were depressed, such an older child actually pretended to be the uncle of the group leader? You know, the only people who were called uncles by the group leader were the late Lord Chi Hanfeng and a few old men of the small mercenary group. Others, even Chi Hanfeng-sama's elder brother Chi Hantong, Amy is only respectfully called the general-sama.

"Hmph......" Seeing that the people in front of him were a little stupid, Ah Lang snorted coldly in his nose, threw down a few words, and smashed the floating soil on the ground into Lao Gao: "Say it or not, in us." Believe it or not, it's up to you. Someone has to be responsible for what happens. If you don't say it, we are responsible, and if you don't believe it, you are responsible. ”

The more the two little boys said this, the more unsure Hunyang and the emperor ** official became, and Hunyang asked hesitantly: "Do you have any evidence?"

"Of course. Ah Lang looked proud, took out a letter from his arms and trembled: "This is a token, but how many of you ...... Cut...... They are not qualified to see it, so they can only be handed over to Deputy Head Horns. ”

Alas...... Hunyang sighed heavily, resisted the idea of giving these two little guys a pension, and turned around and entered the city guard's mansion.

In the council hall, Horns, Daqingshan, and Chi Aotian were all there, as well as several senior imperial officers. These days, there are too many things to count, and Horns, Daqingshan, Chi Aotian and a few high-ranking officers are eager to turn around.

Horns and Daqingshan were discussing whether they needed to find a way to gather another 2000jing spirit archers from the Demon Jing Forest, when Hunyang came in from outside the door.

"Deputy Head Horns, is there anyone outside who wants to see you?"

The people in the room were stunned for a moment, and they wanted to see them, so please come in? Now that they are so busy, where can they still have time to report and report.

Horns also glanced at Hunyang, now Hunyang is also one of the middle-level cadres of the small mercenary group, and his ability to do things is not bad at ordinary times, so he can't make up his mind about this matter today.

"Well...... Hunyang hesitated: "It's two little boys who are about 13 or 4 years old, I have to see you and say...... They...... It's ......"

"What is it?" Horns frowned, half of the people in this room were senior officers of the empire, and the middle-level cadres of the small mercenary group couldn't even tell the priorities, and they couldn't even understand what they said, it was a shame, the two children also wanted to see the deputy head of the regiment, so the two adults, do you want all the cadres of the mercenary group to meet?

"They say they are the uncles of Captain Amy, and they must see you. Hunyang gritted his teeth and said it anyway.

Rumble...... All the people in the room stood up. Horns wants to scold his mother, he is nǎinǎi, this is really unreasonable, isn't the little mercenary group just suffered two defeats? This is the uncle of the child who is the head of the regiment.

Chi Aotian asked coldly, "Are they still outside the door?"

"Well, don't worry! Hunyang gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely.

"Let's take a look. After discussing it all morning, I always have to take a break and eat by the way. For Chi Aotian, Daqingshan didn't dare to relax at all.

Horns nodded immediately: "Yes, name and name me, it's not appropriate not to take a look, everyone go and see who the god is." ”

Ah Lang and Ling Tong were pacing at the door, just now the mercenary brother entered a few minutes ago, a large group of people came from inside, the few who took the lead in front were mercenaries and couldn't tell who it was, and the few officers in the back were all dressed in formal clothes, and swept over at a glance, the lowest rank was actually the captain of the imperial regular army, and then, the two of them immediately noticed the yin cold aura emanating from the tall man in black who walked in front.

"What are the two little brothers looking for me?" Horns was short, squeezing out of the crowd, just about as tall as Ah Lang.

Horns is tall among the forest dwarves, not much shorter than the average human. A dwarf's unique brown beard and hair are connected together, the shoulders are extremely broad, and it may even be twice the shoulders of an ordinary adult man, the chun wind is still a little cold, but the dwarf is half-exposed, lined with a chain of chain mail, and the outside is a two-piece of whole cast plate armor in front and back, and there is a car ** axe inserted in the back, and the axe is only bigger than the wheel! If it weren't for the dwarf laughing all the time, Ah Lang really wouldn't dare to strike a stubble with such a majestic dwarf.

"You...... Is that the famous dwarven prince Horns?"

"Yes, yes. Horns laughed silently like a normal dwarf. These two children are very interesting, they look a little bit like Amy and Da Qingshan, they are really newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers: "This is Da Qingshan, this is Chi Aotian." Others don't tell you about them all. ”

The two little boys were immediately frightened by the three giants of the small mercenary group, and subconsciously swallowed and foamed, "The uncle of the great leader, Amy Harbour, has entrusted us to hand over this letter to you, Lord Horns. Ah Lang took out the letterhead from his bosom and handed it to Horns very formally: "Please sign it strictly." ”

Horns, Da Qingshan, and Chi Aotian saw the signing at the same time, and all three of them showed a smile on their faces, this is not Amy's letter, this guy is making fun of two children again, the older he is, the more unpleasant it is, however, Horns didn't say it, just replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, you two really deserve to be excellent representatives of mercenaries." ”

Amy's return now is undoubtedly a great blessing for the little mercenary group. Horns, Da Qingshan, and Chi Aotian are all sure that the problem they have not solved may not be anything to Amy, maybe, after this guy comes back, he sits in the room and pats the door of his head, and the sun will appear in the clouds-how else to pay this guy the salary of the head of the regiment, the three of them thought viciously.

There weren't many words written on the letter, and Horns asked the two little ones as he read it, "The letter recommends you two to join the little mercenary group, do you two have such thoughts?"

Wow...... Depend on...... The old mage was so interesting that the two little boys were so happy that they kept nodding: "Yes, yes." ”

"Oh. Horns glanced at the two children from the letter: "It's just that the conditions of the two of you ...... It's not ideal......"

The hearts of the two little boys lifted at once.

"Well...... Horns changed his words: "Since there is a recommendation from this old-timer, the two of you will each pay three gold coins as the entrance fee, and we will reluctantly accept you." If you can decide, then hurry, if not, then forget it, we don't want to scale up. ”

Why do you have to pay the money? The faces of the two little boys immediately turned ugly, and Ah Lang scratched his scalp and said, "Your Excellency Horns, we are both poor little ghosts, where is the money? or ...... You accept us first, and then deduct it from the commission later. ”

"Really?" Horns' sharp gaze glanced over the letter again, and went straight to the bottom of the hearts of the two children: "If you are really poor, forget it, I am afraid that some people will be insincere and will not pay the money." As far as I know, a lot of mercenaries have a habit of stuffing money under the heels of their shoes and inside their underwear, so why don't we check it?"

This guy, why is his eyes so vicious, the two little boys cursed, and at the same time touched all the gold, silver, and copper coins that could be touched from under the heels, a total of 5 gold coins, 3 silver coins, and 12 copper.

Horns took it and gave it to Daqingshan twice: "Put it away." Then he said to the two little boys, "The other 5 silver coins and 8 copper coins will be deducted directly from your commission...... Then you are welcome to join the Little Mercenary Group. ”

Wow...... The two little boys jumped for excitement when they heard the good news.

Horns, Daqingshan, and several imperial officials all had smiles on their faces, and Horns waited for the two children to finish celebrating before saying, "Please take us to the old magician." Chi Aotian, you and a few other officers have arranged the next northern front, and I will go with Daqingshan. ”

Horns said this, and several high-ranking Imperial officers showed a little surprise on their faces, which ...... It seems that there is some secret in it that I don't want to tell, but General Chi Aotian didn't say anything, and the emperor ** regiment didn't want to do much.

"Okay, okay. The two little boys said yes without saying anything. As he walked, Ah Lang also asked: "Deputy Commander, didn't our little mercenary group only charge a test fee, and when do we need to pay the entry fee?"

Horns cracked his lips and smiled, "You're right, we never pay for tours. ”

The two little boys couldn't believe their ears: "What...... Which...... Then why do you charge the two of us six gold coins?ah?ah?!"

"Why?" said Horns, with surprise in his tone, "Don't you two know? As he spoke, Horns opened the letter and folded out a few lines to show the two teenagers, which read: "After charging three gold coins per person, they can be allowed to join the small mercenary group (they usually hide the money in the heels, underpants, and other obscene and secret places)!

Both little boys felt dizzy at this moment.

"You're here. In the lush grove, the gray-robed ** master greeted Horns and Daqingshan with a smile, and his tone was as if he was asking "Have you eaten?"

"Why didn't you return to the mainland with us, and where did you go after?" Daqingshan was very strange.

Due to the failure of all magic teleportation arrays, news of the split of the Magic Empire on Azure Island now only reaches the eastern part of the continent.

"I was also very depressed, I didn't know how to be teleported to the Blue Island, and I also saw Princess Bi preparing to ascend the throne and become the king of the Magic Empire. Amy smiled and posed for an enthronement poss: "Guess who else I saw?"

"Tell me, who is it?" Da Qingshan has never been good at this kind of guessing game.

"Lin Yushang. The old magician smiled sweetly, and all the wrinkles on his face unfolded: "She turned out to be the owner of the famous Zhu Bajie, and moreover, she actually went to compete with Princess Bi for the throne of the Magic Empire." ”

What the?

Amy rarely saw Daqingshan's eyes so round.

"Thank you and Sha Ruo for this, why did you suddenly hand over the Apollo ** staff to Lu'er? Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang has another more famous name in history is the Wolong Phoenix Chick, this staff is the Phoenix Chick, Princess Bi has already obtained the Wolong from the ground, that is, the mud puppet dragon. If it weren't for the Apollo ** staff, Bi might have been elected king directly. ”

"Oh. At that time, I considered that your physical condition was not necessarily very good, so I handed it over to Lu'er, in case I saw you, maybe it would be a help. I was afraid that Lu'er would be worried, and we didn't tell him about your situation at that time. Da Qingshan nodded at Lu'er, and the little guy had another child's bad expression on his face.

Horns' beard moved, and he swallowed hard, and his face showed shame: "Amy, I'm so sorry...... Over the past few months...... Lost the battle. ”

The two boys, Ah Lang and Ling Tong, were stunned for a moment. Amy, the deputy head of the little mercenary group, is Amy Harbour, the great leader? There's no such person here?

"Oh, I see. The old magician said lightly.

Ah Lang and Ling Tong were immediately stupid! The two of them stared at the extremely handsome old magician in front of them with wide eyes as if they had seen a ghost. The expression on his face seems to be crying but not crying, like smiling or not smiling, jing color to the extreme!

Don't...... The uncle of the great leader Amy Harbour was also called Amy?

Still Ah Lang is young and reacts quickly, raised his little hand, snapped, snapped, and slapped twice on his face, Ling Tong covered his face and muttered, "You...... You...... Why are you hitting me?"

"Does it hurt?" asked Ah Lang in a low voice.

"Nonsense!" Ling Tong wanted to kick this shameless guy to death.

"The pain is that we have been shabu-shabu!" Ah Lang pointed at the old magician with his finger with a cracked mouth, and his face was full of death: "He...... He...... Deceiving people...... Affection. ”

"Lu'er, Lingbao'er, take Fuxing and these two children to the side to play, let's talk about something. Amy patted Lu'er on the shoulder, and pointed her right hand into the distance, almost pointing to the colorful clouds in the sky.

Ling Bao'er pouted and muttered, "Here it is again, I hate it" and walked away in a huff.

Lu'er stuck out her tongue, shook her little buttocks, pulled Ah Lang with one hand and Ling Tong with the other, and followed behind Ling Bao'er, making grimaces.

The two little boys, especially Ah Lang, struggled desperately, and cried by the way: "Ah, are you the Divine Green Dragon Envoy Lu'er......?" Your Highness Lingbao, Queen Jing Ling, Ah, let go of me, I will ask the Great Leader Amy Haber to sign for me! You let go, I will fight with him! Pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, let go of me, my gold coins...... Wow...... Woo......"

It's a pity that the two little boys completely ignore the power of the green child, don't look at the same as the ordinary little kids, but this is the Divine Dragon Messenger, let alone the two little boys, putting the walls of Scambrai here in two piles is like dragging a dead dog away.

The screams and cries faded away.

"When I passed by Tongyun Pass, I chatted with Chi Changyun for a few words. The old magician looked at the dwarf, and his eyebrows were full of puzzlement: "It seems that the war was quite smooth last year, why did it suddenly become like this? Is it because of the appointment letter ......of His Majesty Redstone?"

"No, no......" Horns hurriedly shook his head: "Senior Long is very supportive, and the appointment letter was torn up on the spot." We juniors really don't have anything to say. ”

The dwarf's eyes narrowed: "The legion of the Pirate King family is too weird. When I say this, you may think that I am passing the buck. After being attacked by the Pirate Skeleton Legion, Chi Aotian and Qu Jianhong circled along the Sanggan River, and after coming back, the two of them agreed that the heyday of the Sweat and Blood Iron Cavalry Mercenary Regiment was also far from the Pirate Skeleton Legion. Soon after, the Mercenary Guild and the Thieves Guild teamed up to sell the detailed information of the Black Crocodile Mercenary Group at a high price, and we spent 20,000 gold coins, which was not unjustly spent, and the Thieves Guild also gave away some of the information of the Pirate Skeleton Legion. If all the information is accurate, the Pirate King family has a total of three major military forces, and the order of establishment is the Pirate Skeleton Legion, the Black Crocodile Mercenary Group, and the Sweat and Blood Iron Cavalry Mercenary Group, and the strength of these three mercenary groups is also in this order. ”

"Go on. The old magician's eyes narrowed as well: "Otherwise, I really think you are shirking your responsibility." ”

"Hey...... The defeated army will be unspeakably brave. The dwarf slapped his thigh fiercely: "In the data, although the two mercenary groups of the Pirate King family are extremely powerful, after all, they are all the mounts and phantom beasts that we can understand, but the pirate skeleton legion actually has a Cancer Knight, a sea otter knight and a sea dragon knight that has never been seen before." One Sea Dragon Knight is enough to defeat a fleet in the sea, one Cancer Knight can defeat two Earth Dragon Knight on both sides of a great river, and as for the Sea Otter Knight, I'm so damn ashamed, I've only heard of it until now, and I've never seen each other make a move. ”

The old magician was also stunned for a long time. What kind of troops are these?

"Then, what kind of troops attacked Hanyang, Chuyang, Heyang and other cities?"

"It's just the Cancer Riders who are fighting us. According to the officers who fled from the defeat, each crab was two meters tall, the eight crab legs stretched out at least six meters, and a pair of large crab claws wielded heavier than the wolf's tooth list. The walls of several cities did not have any effect at all, and these crab riders rushed up the walls more than six meters high at once, and the crab claws directly clamped off the battlements of the city walls. Without the knight's hands at all, the destructive power of the crab is already extremely terrifying. When the officers from several different cities returned, they said that a squad of swordsmen could not stop a crab knight...... "The more Horns spoke, the heavier his face became.
