The Rem Mercenary Regiment, or rather, the infamous Rem Mercenary Regiment.

They are notorious for their cunning and brutality. Especially Machiavelli, the leader of the mercenary group, a guy who is good at deception and disguise, and uses the weaknesses of human nature to achieve his own ends...... For example, deceiving Francois.

After all, Francois was a newcomer, and he was disguised by Machiavelli, thus ignoring the despicable past of the Rem mercenary group.

As soon as the Rem mercenary group arrived in Free City, they ran out of the long wall non-stop, drove away the spies of the Mad Dog Grand Duke nearby, and then scattered the rangers to find the nearby villages, and then rushed to the villages, killed all the men, cut off their heads and returned to Free City to receive the bounty.

They've done it very well.

"It's not in order...... We agreed to hire you for 120 gold every seven days. Francois said with a frown.

"It's the unspoken rule of mercenaries, Mr. Minister." Armando, the deputy head of the regiment, humbly said: "The right reward will motivate us...... Otherwise, you'll see a group of mercenaries just superficially ......"

"For the sake of these heads." Francois couldn't make up his mind, and decided to lead them to Annan, "but don't take them to the city lord's mansion." ”

It didn't take long for Annan to see the mercenaries. Their outfit was in the style of a ranger, with only the regimental commander, Machiavelli, holding a heavy greatsword.

Armando, the deputy head of the regiment, repeated what he had said to Francois, who testified: "There are seventy-three heads. ”

But Annan was not prepared to give this money - if he dared to take it out, Elimoas would dare to fall from the sky.

"Mr. City Lord, then we can only complete the content of the 'commission'." Armando, the deputy head of the regiment, narrowed his eyes and said in a heavy tone.

Annan was displeased with their attitude, but he didn't say anything, and only after they went out did he ask Francois: "You didn't take them to Dean Brehim?" ”

Francois smiled wryly: "They stayed outside the city walls all the time, I thought they didn't have much ideas. ”

Elimayas didn't deter them either, and Annan thought about it and swapped Fermi back from the north.

Fermi, who exudes the ferocity of the rat killers, should be able to intimidate this group of mercenaries who have little respect.

The Rem mercenaries no longer attacked, they really just drove out the enemy who was close to the long wall. It didn't take long for the Mad Dog Grand Duke's spies to come to a tacit agreement with them: they wouldn't come near Liberty City, and the Rem mercenary group wouldn't trouble them.

At first, Annan thought it was okay, at least the Mad Dog Grand Duke's men stopped intruding on the periphery, but then they went the other way: infiltrating Liberty City from the forested mountains and merchant ships.

They lurked in Liberty City, looking for an opportunity to get close to the City Lord's Mansion, and also caused a lot of trouble in the city.

But even so, Editilia did not order the port to be closed, but only let the musketeers keep an eye on the harbor.

The witch is also suspected of being identified, but she proves her innocence: an invitation from Red Dreams. She was actually a student at the Academy of Magic.

After the Mad Dog Grand Duke's infiltration of Liberty City was extinguished, the merchant ships actually encountered marauding pirates.

Whether they were the Mad Dog Grand Duke or the pirates who came in with the smell of blood are unknown, or the magic cannon mounted on the merchant ship fired a few shots to scare away the pirates who thought there was a magician on board,

During this period, the Rem mercenary group really only obeyed the contract commission - stayed on the periphery and did not move.

To outsiders, it seems that Liberty City will not last long, but the people of Liberty City feel that life is still the same as usual. On the seventh day, the Rem mercenary group came to the City Lord's Mansion again.

The maid Abby led the mercenary group to the parlor and was about to go out to bring tea, when the deputy head of Armando suddenly grabbed her.

"Please let me go!" Abby, who couldn't break free, pretended to be calm: "I'm the head maid of Lord Annan, not the girl of the tavern." ”

At this time, Editilea pushed her wheelchair in and stared at Armando, who was slowly letting go of Abby: "Get out." ”

"It's a misunderstanding, Lady Vice-Lord......" Armando tilted his head and Machiavelli, the head of the regiment, winked at him, and the result of the tentative test was obtained: it seemed that this time there was still no money.

Abby rubbed her red wrist and ran to the door, bumping into Ingrid who walked in with a gloomy face.

"What's wrong?" Itilia had never seen Ingrid look like that.

Ingrid glanced at the Rem mercenary group and whispered in Itilia's ear, "Our people found that a nearby village had been looted, and all the villagers were ...... The heads were cut off. ”

The eldest sister's gentle eyes froze for a moment, and fell on the people of the mercenary group with different expressions.

"Do we have proof?"

"The woman from that village fled."

Annan, who had arrived at the news, interrupted her.

"Annan, something happened."

Annan, who was still preparing to welcome the Rem mercenary group, restrained his smile when he saw the disgust that Etilia had never seen.

And after Ingrid whispered about the massacre in the village, Annan looked indifferently at the people of the mercenary group who realized that they had been exposed.

"You can't leave for a while."

Mr. Evaro stepped out of the teleportation array. Before he could speak, Annan said, "Mr. Svarro, they killed seventy-three villagers. Chop off their heads, falsely claiming to be the heads of the enemy. ”

"That's really...... Disgusting. ”

Mr. Svarro, who taught Alice, was clearly equally righteous, and his disgust was undisguised: "Do you want their body or soul?" ”

"You have to live to feel the pain."

Machiavelli's left hand moved behind her back and explained, "It's just a bunch of civilians......"

Annan shook his head lightly: "The mad dog Grand Duke didn't do what you did......"

"Attack!"

The mercenaries act simultaneously under the sudden orders of the deputy commander Armando, but in front of an epic mage, their every move is as ridiculous as a shaking baby.

The sudden influx of weakness made them as weak as children, and the hands of countless mages emerged from the void, firmly shackling everyone in the mercenary group.

"All of them are safe and sound, and they can bear the pain 'new'." Mr. Swaro's voice had a hoarse depth.

"Thank you......"

Annan asked the guards outside to send the mercenary group to the dungeon.

"You broke the contract!" Machiavelli shouted unwillingly, he could not have imagined that they would be planted in a small town in the middle of nowhere.

"No, the contract was invalid from the moment you slaughtered the villagers."

"I have a knighthood, and you are not qualified to judge a nobleman!"

Annan didn't bother to answer, and asked the guards to drag the writhing Machiavelli out.

"Remember to tell me the results."

Mr. Evaro left a message and walked through the portal to leave.

Annan and his eldest sister went to see the fleeing woman, and after hearing about the sins committed by the Rem mercenary group, he thought of them and came with his head to ask for a bounty...... If he had promised him, the surrounding villages would have been destroyed.

His own stinginess actually saved the nearby villagers.
