When the afterglow of the slanting sun shone on the figure of the person for a long time, three travelers were ushered in outside the ancient city of Tai.

Solomon sat on his horse and looked at the city gate a few dozen meters away.

To his left was a stone sculpture that resembled a solid mount, and Guerra was dressed in a normal way, but it still couldn't hide the handsomeness of his half-elven blood.

On the right is Agatha, who thought he had subdued her, but he didn't expect her to sneak out after leaving a letter for her teacher.

A little helpless, Solomon had no choice but to take her.

Along the way, the girl boasted to her lover a hundred times that she would not drag him down and would be very useful, but her lover did not believe it 100 percent, but because she had no time to mess around with her anymore, even if she was sent back, it was difficult to guarantee that she would not find another chance to slip out, so she decided to take her with her for the time being.

The three horsemen slowly entered the city, and according to the information provided to the Rose Bank, the Mogu merchant group traveled to the city's station.

However, on this trip, Solomon did not plan to use the Rose Bank too much, so as not to be exposed to the relationship between the Rose Bank and himself.

When I was about to arrive, there were more people.

Solomon dismounted, and the three approached the Mogul merchant group, and now there was a long queue at the entrance, which was recruiting the merchant group escort.

This should be expanding the private army belonging to the merchant group, Solomon said silently.

"Do you want to join the merchant convoy, and get in line over there?" Several people, presumably in charge of maintaining order, stopped in front of Solomon.

"Do we need to stand in line?" snorted Agatha.

She grew up in the Free City and was always under the control of her father, after coming to Saint-Quentin. In the past few years, I have always been controlled by the teacher. Although a little capricious. But she's not stupid. clearly knows that if she is a runaway girl with her skills, she will only suffer herself, so except for the time when she met Solomon, she ran away and was caught, and she never did anything out of the ordinary.

Only this time, she took advantage of the teacher's retreat to study the depth of Black Rock, and then sneaked away, but she could be with Solomon when she sneaked out. With her lover, she is not worried about safety.

Therefore, she was in a relaxed mood along the way, and she was quite curious along the way.

The sudden blocking of a hand by someone suddenly made her little mood a little ruined.

Solomon smiled and was about to speak, but a voice sounded next to him, "What are you doing, not getting out of the way for this venerable mage." ”

A man who looked like a deacon stepped in from the side with a kind smile like a spring breeze, and waved his hand to let the people stand down.

Agatha's face softened when she saw that someone was interested.

The deacon also took the opportunity to look at Solomon and the other three, and said with a smile: "The three of them must have also recruited our Mogul merchant group to explore the different planes this time, right?"

"Yes. Solomon put the names of the three of his own men into the name.

"Please come here. "The deacon's name is Diem. And he led Solomon and the others into a room next to them.

"You two are mages, aren't you?" Diem sat down at his desk, pulling out a quill. The names of the three Solomon men began to be registered.

"Yes, the three of us are together. Solomon casually introduced the three of them, saying that he and Guerra were two adventure duos who had always worked together, often accepting hired assignments for adventure exploration, and Agatha was a newcomer, his sister, and this time he was forced to come out with the two, which was an experience.

Originally, there was no Agatha in the original history, but now I have to make up another paragraph like this.

Fortunately, Tim didn't suspect anything, because anyone could see that Agatha didn't have any adventure experience.

Tim didn't value Agatha either, even if she seemed to be a mage.

"I wonder what the Venerable Mage is good at, and this one?" Diem began to ask.

"I'm a summoner. Solomon spoke calmly about a part of his rank, and as for Gera, he implied that he was a good thief and hunter.

"Now is the time for our business group to employ people, and we welcome all strong people who have confidence in themselves to join. Dim deliberately accentuated the word strong.

Then Solomon learned more from him, and the Mogul Merchant Group is now planning to enter an alien plane to explore.

Since this plane is not an alien plane that Titania has occupied or enjoys special rights and interests, it only belongs to the alien plane that the large merchant group itself is currently exploring and is exploring, and only needs to pay Guan Rui when entering Titania.

Moreover, this tariff is still because the Mogul merchant group needs to recruit private soldiers in Titania, so it has to report to the empire as a reason for its expansion of the merchant group's private army.

Otherwise, as long as the Mogul merchant group had its own teleportation channel, it would not even have to pay customs duties, which was completely equivalent to large-scale smuggling.

Of course, if they are exposed like this now, they need to report to the empire, and they will definitely be targeted, not to mention anything else, at least they will pay a large fine, even if you repeatedly claim that you have not been private before, it is useless to just start opening up this plane channel.

If you don't pay the fine, if you don't open the joints, the exposed plane trade channels will be targeted, and as long as the Empire destroys the Miè Mogul merchant group with the wrath of thunder, the opponents of the other merchant groups will definitely pounce on them like corpse vultures pecking at corpses, let alone the expansion of the army.

On the other hand, the Mogul Merchant Group would now rather expose such a dimensional trade deposit, and from now on pay to the empire to expand its strength in a short period of time, which means that its exhibition over there has been greatly hindered, and more importantly, it represents that the interests there are so great that the Mogul Merchant Group would rather be exposed to the eyes of others than maintain its leading position there.

Solomon, of course, knew why, for it was highly likely that there was a rich black rock there, which was the guess of the Taigu branch of the Rose Bank, and he was certain of it.

In order to succeed in expanding the army in a short period of time, in addition to gaining the understanding and support of the empire, allowing it to recruit private troops or hire troops in Taigunia, a large amount of money is needed.

The Mogul merchant group approached the Taigu branch for this purpose, which attracted the attention of the Rose Bank. Under the spied on of the Bloodline. After all, it was a little bit of a horse's foot. The Mogul Merchant Group has a lot of high-quality black rock in a secret warehouse, but the Mogul Merchant Group has never sold it to the public.

You must know that this thing is definitely not to be sold now, except for the Saxons, who are most closely related to the church, which are slower in the use of black rock, other countries are actively opening up black rock, but whether it is practical application or continuous in-depth research, or future development, it is necessary to stabilize the source of dìng, otherwise it will eventually fail.

The dwarves were like that. They had long mastered the knowledge of mechanical civilization, but because they had been driven to the barren lands of the far west, it was difficult to mine enough raw materials to show it, and it was not until Asturias was willing to accept them that they rejuvenated themselves and combined the use of Black Rock with their mechanical technology to embark on a new path of magic.

As for whether it may contain rich black rocks, it is still based on speculation, and it is not completely proved by relying only on the black rocks hidden by the Mogul merchants. That's why Solomon personally investigated it.

Externally, the Mogul merchant group has not shown any traces that may be related to this. At most, it is only a disguised admission that the prospects for trade with this plane are very promising, and they intend to monopolize the interests, so they have the current recruitment and expansion.

Solomon knew from Diem's mouth that there were three aspects of the expansion of the Mogul merchant group this time, one was the ordinary soldiers that Solomon saw outside, and was recruiting.

The second aspect is to recruit a variety of ranks with a certain level of strength, and these people who have a certain rank will be assigned to the merchant guard as minor leaders or in charge of assisting in battles.

A squad with the help of a mage or other excellent warrior will increase the entire combat power by a large margin.

At a higher level, the recruitment of strong people will be arranged, which will be personally arranged by the top management of the business group.

Dim is in charge of about the middle level, but if he can recruit someone who can be called a strong man to recommend him, then his credit will be even greater.

Dim spoke, still secretly observing the three of them. Putting aside Agatha first, he came to the conclusion that this girl was just a chick who had just come out and couldn't be a powerful mage; Gra was unpredictable and difficult to guess, and just from the point of view of her momentum, it should not be taken lightly; as for Solomon, the other party was very frank, but it was even more difficult to guess, because if he was a summoner, his strength did not depend on himself, but on how powerful his summoned beast was.

"If you don't mind, you two can show me what you're capable of, and I'll make arrangements for you. Of course, if the two of them have high-level strength, I can recommend the two of them, and when the time comes, when the two of them enter the core guard formed by our merchant group this time, don't forget to carry me as well. "Dim is worthy of being a good man, both patting the sycophants and leaving room for words, all after Solomon showed his strength.

"There's no problem with that. Mr. Diem, I will be able to show you my personal strength in a moment, but I have some other questions and requests. Solomon said.

"Do you have any additional requirements?" said Diem, stunned.

"Yes, the three of us are together, she is my sister, he is my best buddy, it is not okay to leave them, so if you decide to recommend me upwards in a moment, then please recommend the three of us as a whole, otherwise I would rather miss this opportunity. ”

"That's right. "Dim is a little embarrassed, if Solomon has strong strength, there is no problem in recommending it upwards, Dim not only earns a network, but if the recommended candidate is satisfactory to the above, he will get an additional reward.

But if the other two are not qualified, how to calculate this, whether the above will agree, he is not sure at all.

Seeing that he was a little embarrassed, Solomon relieved him, "You can rest assured, we just don't want to be separated." If I were to recommend, the three of us would only have one spot. ”

Hearing this, Diem's face suddenly softened a lot, and he blinked, "You mean that if you recommend you, you must recommend the three of you together, but in the future, you will only receive one reward, right?"

"Yes. Solomon laughed.

"It's much easier, as long as you can be satisfied. Diem was relieved.

"Also, I have a question. Solomon took the opportunity to say.

"If you have any questions, please tell me. Dim said cheerfully.

"Do you plan to use all the caravan guards recruited outside for this operation?"

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"Oh. I'm a little weird. These people are screened. The physique is stronger than the average person, but I'm afraid it's still extremely difficult to get through the normal teleportation. Solomon asked with a smile, for before he came in, he and Agatha and Gera had watched a long queue, and most of the people in the queue had been chosen.

Although the physique of these people is outstanding among the average person, some of them are even up to the standard of heavy infantry. Heavy infantry has to wear steel armor weighing tens of kilograms, and it is not okay to have poor physical fitness.

But it's still not as good as a third-order creature, which means that if you teleport normally. The chances of death are too great for these people to take any chances.

Okay, take another 10,000 steps back and say, even if the merchant group further equips the merchant group escort with the funds it recently borrowed, which can increase the security factor of some teleportation, less than one-third of the people recruited outside can be teleported according to the traditional teleportation method, even those whose physical fitness reaches the standard of heavy infantry, and the others will definitely not be able to withstand the huge pressure after teleporting into the void, and will only explode and die.

Even the use of Solomon's shuttle car cannot change the fundamentals.

For it is not Solomon who transported slaves in the first place, Solomon who transported slaves. The cost of the slave itself is extremely low, and when he dies, he dies. If you transport one to the past, you can earn back a few boxes of money, and failure is just less money.

But the Mogul merchant group is different, they are transporting soldiers, if they fail, they will lose all their money, and it is useless to survive under the protection of the shuttle, the war needs quantity, and the strong who do not need the number do not need the shuttle.

If there are dozens of people in a box, if only two or three people survive, and teleport to the different planes, not only is it meaningless, but the consequences will be very great, if the relatives and friends of the deceased know that they were killed by transporting slaves, they will definitely come to the door, or gather together to make a big fuss and sue the imperial officials, then the Mogul merchant group will also be in trouble.

Moreover, if the teleportation under the protection of the shuttle compartment is really adopted, even if those who survived, during the teleportation process, witnessed the tragic transportation method of Ji companions being treated like selling black piglets, would they collapse after the past, or would they be the anti-business group?

This can't be predicted, otherwise why didn't Asturias immediately use it to teleport ordinary soldiers to participate in the plane war after Solomon knew that the shuttle compartment protected the teleportation?

"This. Diem's face changed suddenly, and he looked at Solomon with a puzzled and unkind gaze.

Solomon understood that his suspicions had been aroused, but he said as if he didn't care: "Because one of my talents is that I can command a small number of troops to fight, hehe, my partner and I used to be in a mercenary group before we went out to work alone, and I served as a squadron leader." If I have the opportunity to lead a force, I am more than capable of doing it. So I'm a little curious, you said that the merchant group also recruits these people, but if they can't reach the heteroplane, won't our reinforcements be few, not only have I not shown my talent in this area, but also do you plan to rely only on the so-called core escort to fight?"

Solomon's last sentence was a bit harsh, and he vaguely asked if the other party wanted to use the so-called core guards as cannon fodder.

His question made Diem's doubts a little less, because if the recruitment outside was just a show, recruiting people like Solomon to use as cannon fodder, then of course the other party would be worried about whether the merchant group was playing tricks, planning to use the strong people recruited to consume, so that when the people died, the benefits were grabbed, and the rewards could be saved.

"Ahem, of course not. Diem said a little embarrassed.

Solomon's eyes have been staring at him firmly, which made Dim feel flustered, and involuntarily said: "You don't have to worry at all, in fact, this merchant group has already made a little breakthrough in teleportation, cough, do you know the Asturias, they realized a few years ago that they can teleport ordinary soldiers to the other plane, in short, I can't say too much, if you really have enough strength to get the favor of the merchant group, you will know more." ”

Speaking of the back, Dim probably knew that he had said a little too much, so he hurriedly stopped talking.

Solomon withdrew his mental coercion, he could only do this, and it was impossible for him to really use any spells to charm humans and so on to make him say more.

You can't lose a big one because of a small one, this Dim is obviously not a high-level member of the business group, and his knowledge is limited, if he uses it to charm humans, and the other party feels wrong afterwards, then he and the others may quickly expose their purpose.

Solomon asked so much, just to take the opportunity to find out if it was related to Black Rock, and judging from Diem's answer, this possibility increased a few points.

His ultimate goal is to get to that plane to detect more and analyze a plane coordinate to bring back.

Solomon looked satisfied, "Then I don't have a problem." ”

Dim was also relieved, he got up and said, "Then you can show me your strength, let's go to the martial arts arena in the back, right?"
