The world can be regarded as peaceful - at least there has been no war between several major powers, and as for the petty fights between the nobles in the country, this kind of thing has never been broken, but it is not very on the table, and everyone is fighting in the form of black hands.

Because of this, the golden years of mercenaries, such as the continental war more than a hundred years ago, have passed, and the mercenary unions that existed in every city in their heyday and the tens of thousands of mercenaries who lived by hard work have already shrunk a lot. Now there are only traces of mercenary unions in those towns that have a future or have more monsters nearby, and the number of mercenaries is only a thousand people. At its peak, there were dozens or hundreds of mercenary groups on the continent, and now there are more than 30 mercenary groups left, and the number of troops has shrunk to the point of more than 100 people - in this way, they are still limited by the country where they are located, and basically they are similar to the auxiliary regiments set up by the state.

Thanks to the branches of the Eagle's Nest Mountains on the plains behind the Uraf Fortress, monsters are still emerging one after another, so the mercenary union here still has a business. The mercenaries here earn a decent income, and the loot from killing those monsters can sometimes be sold for some money at some of the acquisition points - many of the monsters' organs are used in the magic tower, and the mages with the highest percentage of wealthy people are always willing to pay a small amount of money for them. Zhou Zhongmou lived a fulfilling life practicing martial arts under such circumstances, and then killed some monsters or bandits to entertain himself - if he didn't do this, he really couldn't think of how to dispel his contempt for this backward world and nostalgia for the earth. Speaking of which, he hadn't seen any wonders of the world or the magical scenery created by the mages - after all, he was now in the middle of a fully mature continent, and there were no ruins, dungeons, or anything like that had been condensed by magic from the land that had just been born out of chaos. Zhou Zhongmou also knew that the place he was in now was actually a rural place, and he had already decided that once his strength reached a certain level, he would definitely go all over the world to see all kinds of different scenery, of course, if possible, it would be best to find a way to return to the earth.

He had also traded money for a chance to test his spell talent at the Grey Tower Mage's office at Fort Khabarov, but the apprentice told him, "It's strange that you don't have any spell talent at all? This gentleman, do you want to sign a contract with us, let us take a good look at what is going on for you?Hey, don't go" Zhou Zhongmou knew that he was an earthling, and eighty percent of them couldn't learn magic, and now it was just a confirmation that he couldn't become a noble magician, and as for being studied as a guinea pig and then used as a slice of otherworldly creatures, he was not sensitive.

Speaking of which, in the course of a year, he learned all the weapons that the local mercenary guild could teach, and in several missions he earned himself a name as an all-rounder. He can use the commonly used one-handed sword and shield, two-handed sword and spear with ease, and his combat skills are quite good, and the mercenaries who went out together also thought that this Zuo Dezu could find a pretty good position for himself in the grizzly bear mercenary group stationed in the city, "At least it is no problem to be a soldier." "This is a situation that everyone agrees to have.

In other words, the combat effectiveness level here is quite reasonable, and the general Self-Defense Forces peasants and soldiers. For example, in Manshel Town, the combat effectiveness of these peasant soldiers is basically the lower rank of black iron, which belongs to the lowest level of the warrior rank; and the kingdom army stationed in Manstow Town, the soldiers are generally in the middle of black iron, and they are replaced by the kind that can be the squad leader in the Self-Defense Forces; As for the elite knights of the kingdom, those ordinary knights are all from the silver rank, and the head of the knights is at least in the knights of the White Dragon King family in the kingdom of Southern Yuktobania, and he is a gold-level knight. The level of the mercenaries is even more different, just like the free mercenaries where Zhou Zhongmou is now, most of them are black iron subordinates, of course, there are also gold-level free mercenaries on the mainland, but most of these people are in the royal capital of a certain country or on the edge of the world- You can get more benefits there, and if you have the opportunity, you can open up a new territory, but now there are no people willing to take the fire to the chaos to open up a new continent, the vast majority of people in this world feel that the current continent group is large enough, and the mercenary groups are similar to the kingdom legions, the general soldiers are black iron median, and the captains are all bronze-level, such a mercenary group is already the backbone of the mercenaries in this world. And Zhou Zhongmou is the free mercenary in the middle of the black iron, and in this city, he is considered to be the top ten powerhouses among the free mercenaries.

As a mercenary, Zhou Zhongmou's equipment can't be considered good, because he can't take the initiative to stimulate any magic equipment, those earth shields, flame swords or other things he uses are useless - and he can't afford it, this kind of equipment often starts at three hundred gold coins, as a black-hearted magic equipment store, this price is just the beginning. So he just took the ordinary refined swords and shields from the weapons shop owned by the guild to fill up, and he couldn't afford the high-quality swords made by the dwarves anyway - these things also cost at least fifty or sixty gold coins, and the black hearts of these dwarves were not much different from those magic equipment foundries. As for the equipment made by the elves, this kind of high-end goods in this city are all hung in the auction house, and the starting price is 1,000, which belongs to the dream price in the eyes of most mercenaries.

Fortunately, he didn't care much, as an earthling who had seen modern weapons and was a fan of military affairs, he really didn't have much interest in these cold weapons - although those magic weapons that could inspire all kinds of magic were very magical, but for a guy who had played with alloy steel cold weapons, it was nothing more than that. "If there is a pistol with me, I will teach you how to be a human with these magic weapons in minutes!" Of course, Zhou Zhongmou had not seen how powerful a bronze-level warrior or mage was, nor had he seen a weapon stronger than those bronze-level magic weapons in the store. Those strange creatures in this world, the dwarf Zhou Zhongmou has already seen, these meat mounds that are only one meter two tall are extremely thick, each one is so strong that they seem to be the roots of ancient trees, and the short beard of one meter two weighs more than one hundred and twenty kilograms without wearing armor. And, as he had seen in all kinds of games, these dwarves loved to strike iron, all of them were alcoholics, and at the same time they were rare stubborn profiteers.

Beautiful elves, living anyway, I have never seen them, I have only seen all kinds of pictures, and the elves on these paintings are all slender beauties. Zhou Zhongmou also listened to the braggadocio of many mercenaries who claimed to be well-informed, and almost came to a conclusion about elves: "They are the same as in the game, they are all stubborn antiques, and their lifespan is almost more than six hundred years. He's a little taller than the average human male here, who is 1.7 meters taller, and his body is a little more slender. It's just that the fact that they can fire the bow and arrow in their hands to a hundred and twenty paces -- that is, one hundred and fifty meters above and through the usual plate armor -- seems to be no small feat - but maybe it's a credit to magic."

Zhou Zhongmou, who was thinking like this, was wandering around the mercenary hall at the same time, and a newly posted mission notice attracted his attention. A group of people also gathered around the briefing, and the staff in charge of the narration also dutifully answered the mercenaries' questions. "Have you exterminated the goblin bandif? The Brotherhood has already discovered the goblin lair? Now the local business federation has proposed a bounty of one hundred gold coins to destroy this goblin bandit that has been causing trouble for more than ten years. Very good! This task is undertaken!" Zhou Zhongmou learned about this qiē in the crowd, and immediately decided to take this task.

The requirements of the mission are above the middle position of Black Iron, and Zhou Zhongmou in the free mercenaries just met the conditions, and he and several other qualified free mercenaries took over this task - of course, the main force of the mission is about thirty mercenaries from a squadron of the local grizzly mercenary group.
