The morning sun is always soft, even if it's the height of summer. Where is the fastest update of the novel?Please look for the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info a few white clouds are floating lazily, and the sky is blue with a hint of slackness. Today, the streets outside the West Gate were much more lively than usual, not to mention the vendors and passers-by on both sides of the street, and there were many young mercenaries with swords and swords and cold eyebrows shouting and walking outside the city gate. Gradually, the crowd formed a flow of people.

At this time, in a vacant land within a radius of several miles not far from the right side outside the west gate, five wooden rings have been set up in the shape of plum blossoms, among which the middle one is the most majestic, three zhang high, about ten zhang wide, the four major mercenary groups of the empire are planted around the platform, the breeze is coming, and the flags are raising thousands of waves. The other four are a little smaller, but they are also colorful flags flying and full of flowers. Each ring was fifty feet away from the big ring in the middle, and now these separated open spaces were already crowded with people, shouting and greeting one after another. Those discerning hawkers had already set up stalls around the clearing, buying snacks, medicine, and even gambling.

"Wow, that's a lot of people. Sofia, who was standing on the edge of the field, opened her eyes wide and stuck out her tongue in exclamation. Today she wore a pink gauze skirt, and the two small fox ears were also covered by scattered lengths, which looked particularly delicate and moving.

Cole, who had just finished the formalities, squeezed out of the crowd with a smile, there were already a few small beads of sweat on his wide head, and said proudly, "Miss Suo, there are still the least people today, if it is the last day of the game, at that time, there will be a lot of people." ”

Sisi, who poked out half of her head from Mans's arms, also looked around curiously, her big eyes full of excitement and joy. pouted, turned his pink little face sideways, and said regretfully, "It's so lively, it's a pity that Brother Ah Jue can't come to class." ”

Milan, who was standing between Sofia and Mans, was still wearing a golden shawl, but the moon white shirt on his body today made him look a little more elegant and less powerful than usual, and asked with a little curiosity, "Brother Cole, why are there more people on the last day?"

Cole stared at the ring in the center with both eyes, and then turned his head and explained with a smile, "In my country, mercenaries have a total of 6 levels like mercenary groups, and all except for the F rank can participate in the qualification ranking competition. For example, we are now an E-level mercenary group, and we must first get the top three in the E-level competition to reach the D rank, and if we want to go further, we can only become the top three in the D-level competition to reach the C rank. And so on, but it's not the same from B-level to A-level, only by becoming the top two of B-level can you be eligible to challenge one of the four major mercenary groups. So the more the game goes to the back, the more exciting it is, and the more people will naturally watch. ”

"What are you talking about?" Hughes and the other Blood Eagles also squeezed out of the crowd, and the black-clad falcon totem made the people around them look sideways. Walking to Cole and Milan's side, Xiuth whispered, "I have followed the boss's instructions to ambush the demon dog team at various intersections, in case the ghost ninja appears, the howling is the signal." Do you understand?"

Xius was about to say something, but at this time, under the leadership of a young general, nearly a thousand Imperial City guards ran over, flying military flags, long spears, and neat footsteps made the originally chaotic venue suddenly quiet. Xius heard a mercenary next to him pointing to the young general on the horse and said to his companion, "Do you know? That general is the third son of the Linghu family, the younger brother of the silver-speared Linghu Xiao, Linghu Miao, don't look at him is only over 2o years old, but he is already a high-level warrior. ”

"Ling Hu Miao, how can he have the same surname as the boss, and he looks a little similar. Xiusi stared at Ling Hu Miao for a few moments, and said secretly.

Ling Hu Miao, who was riding on a horse, was not in a good mood, and the arrival of Ling Hu Jue yesterday really made him suspicious in his heart. His mother was the first to marry Ling Huming as a concubine. But he has never been favored by Ling Huming. So much so that by chance, he inadvertently heard his mother drink to relieve his sorrows that his father once had a woman he loved deeply. The father also took a wife and took a concubine for the sake of this woman. It's just that she gave birth to Lisa's mother, who made Linghu Xiao, his wife. So from the first time Ling Hu Miao saw Ling Hu Jue, he strongly felt that this young man must have something to do with his father, or with the woman in his mother's mouth, but with his father's attitude, he could only hide this suspicion in his heart.

(Speaking of which, it should be noted that the marriage system of the Mingsi Empire is somewhat peculiar, it stipulates that an adult nobleman only has one wife, but he can have one or more concubines before or after marriage. So before Ling Huming fell in love with Latin America, he had already married three concubines according to his father's orders, and although he was not married, he already had several children.

After sorting out the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Ling Hu Miao focused his mind on the competition field in front of him again, his face was cold, and he ordered loudly to an officer beside him, "Order the first squadron to be responsible for guarding, the third squadron to be responsible for maintaining order, and the rest will patrol around with Ben to severely punish those who wantonly disrupt the game,"

"Yes. With the officer's answer, the nearly 1,000 city guards divided into three teams and scattered around the entire field, looking at their neat movements, it may not be the first time to perform such a mission.

At this time, in the middle of the ring, more than a dozen people walked out, looking at their decorations, it should be the leadership of the Mercenary Guild. Guessed right, one of the people in Tsing Yi who was a little chubby, about 5o or so, was the president of the Mercenary Guild, Anns. He looked up at the sky, then nodded to the few people behind him, and immediately turned his head and said, "The Mingsi Empire Mercenary Conference is about to start, and what I want to say is that this competition has received strong support from His Majesty, and Prime Minister Nangong will be in charge of the events after the B level." As for the rules of the game, I think everyone knows about them, so I won't say more. Now, please choose the ring and opponent according to the number you drew when you just registered, and start now. Enns's words were full of sincerity, and the audience began to get busy, crowding, shouting, and looking for their own venue. Fortunately, most of the people stood up according to the number they had chosen, so they didn't panic too much.

Seeing that everyone around him was crowding forward, Xius came to his senses and asked Cole, "I said Corvo, what are our numbers?

Cole looked over the number plate in his hand again, patted Hughes on the shoulder, and said, "We're number 36, it's still early." Then he pointed to the ring closest to them and said, "Look, that's it." ”

"No. 36, there are so many people in the game. Xius opened his mouth wide in surprise, but immediately closed it again, and said a little frustratedly, "When will it be, what's the point of watching these three-legged cats scurrying around on the stage?" It's no wonder that Xius is not happy, you see that those people who are competing in the ring now, as long as they go up with a blood eagle, they can beat everyone on the stage lightly.

Cole put his hand on Xiuth's shoulder and said comfortingly, "That can't be helped, whoever told us that we are now the lowest-grade mercenary group, you can be patient and wait." Besides, do you know how many E-class mercenary groups participated this time? a full 12o is more than two days. After speaking, towards Milan, who was crowded to the front, and was full of interest, Sofia and the others nodded for a moment, then turned their heads and said, "You should accompany them to see the excitement." ”

"I knew it would be better to let Lao Ke come first, I might as well stay at home and practice two tricks with Ciro. Hughes thought unhappily, but his eyes also looked into the ring. "Let's just take a look, just watch Uncle Su Mu fight cocks in the tribe. ”

Time flies by in the shadows of swords and swords, and the sun is more like a huge furnace about to explode, and the scorching sun bakes everyone's faces with oil. Sweat made many people retreat, and the originally crowded venue became empty. But there are still a lot of mercenary groups waiting below that haven't taken their turn to compete.

"Brother Xiusi, are we alright?" watched too much circus, everyone would be annoyed, and finally even Sisi, who was originally the most interested, began to be bored, hid in Mans's arms, poked out a cute head, and couldn't wait to ask.

"This weather. Xius found a large leaf and fanned it vigorously, and replied to Sisi with resentment, "I said auntie, I still want to leave immediately, I have already told Ciro in the audience, telling him to end the game as soon as he comes on stage." ”

"Are you very hot, do you want me to cool you down?" Sisi, as a pure energy body, couldn't feel the temperature change, and rolled his dark eyes a few times, as if sympathetic.

"Ah, why didn't I think about it?" As soon as Xiusi was said by Sisi, the picture of Tusu being poured cold water by Sisi immediately appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help but say urgently, "My good Sisi, hurry up and give your brother Xiusi a basin of cold water, hurry up." ”

"Selfishness. Sisi glanced at Theseus and said, that cute look almost loved the mans who was holding her. Her pink mouth closed slightly, then stretched out her small lotus root arm and drew an arc. Before Sisi's hand could be retracted, Xiusi and the others had already suddenly felt that a cold air was falling from the sky, forming an aura circle visible to the naked eye, and the slightest coolness penetrated into the body's internal organs along the open pores. "It's so cool. Theseus raised his head and sighed inwardly.

The people standing in the circle were cool, but the people standing outside the circle were stupid, Ling Hu Miao looked at the arc white fog circle, and his eyes floated with disbelief. You know, at such temperatures, it's impossible to maintain qi magic for a long time, unless that person has reached the level of a great magician. "Who the hell are these people? so powerful, but they don't know their name. Ling Hu Miao thought deeply, and even forgot to wipe the beads of sweat rolling down.

"Dead Theseus, what did the boss order, reserve some strength, and tell me to go first. Just when Ciro saw Hughes hiding in the air conditioner and was extremely unbalanced, the voice of the announcer sounded at the right time, "No. 36, No. 37 come to power." ”

"It's finally our turn. Sia sighed with relief and thought to herself, stretched out her hand to straighten out the golden long that had been stuck together with sweat, and said to the other four Blood Eagles, "Brothers, let's hurry up and go home and take a bath." ”

"Yes. The other four Blood Eagles couldn't wait to answer loudly. The voice is very loud, but it has a sense of arrogance and high morale. Even the other people in the ring reflexively cast their eyes on it.

"It's not easy for this group of young mercenaries to be exposed to the sun for so long, and they still have such fighting spirit. President Ens sat in the only pergola next to the ring and thought with appreciation. However, if he knew that Ciro and the others were not motivated because they wanted to compete, but because they couldn't wait to go home and take a shower, then he probably felt more than praise in his heart.

In the ring, "How are you going to compare? one by one, or everyone together." A middle-aged mercenary with a long beard took the lead and greeted Ciro and the others who were standing a few feet away in front of him.

"Let's get together and don't waste time. Ciro replied, although he was relaxed, but as hunters, Ciro and the others would never despise any opponent, five pairs of cold eyes, looking at the opponent coldly, the five people standing in front of him were of different ages, all wearing black buttons, and there was a dead leaf embroidered on their chests.

The gaze of Siro and the others was like a few invisible black swords, stabbing into the hearts of these five mercenaries with a bang, and they subconsciously shivered, and even the hand that was originally holding the weapon trembled slightly. "What's wrong with me?" said one of the mercenaries, whose face was dark, but now reddened by the sun.

"Well, we're welcome, up. The beard suppressed the chill in his heart and screamed and pounced. Ciro and the others stared solemnly, their swords hung low, and in the silence there was infinite and terrifying power, like a group of predators guarding the territory of the Demon Realm, that charm, that meaning, and the surrounding air seemed to drop a few degrees suddenly.

"The leaves fall back to their roots. Ciro and the others spit out a few cold words from between their teeth at the same time, and the twin swords suddenly lit up like a lit torch, and the sword in his hand drew a thousand arcs, like a piece of leaves blown off by the wind, spinning and fluttering rapidly. There is a sense of poignancy and loneliness.

When the pupils of the people in the audience were still confused by the falling leaves, Xiluo and the others had already shot towards the location of Xiusi and the others like idle clouds and wild cranes. They were accompanied by a few muffled grunts, and a puff of bright blood.

"That's the most beautiful and powerful move I've ever seen. Many years later, the beard still took the trouble to boast to others,
