In this era when information is not spread very quickly, club-initiated gatherings are an important channel for an industry or a class to obtain information.

Although Hobart had never been a soldier and had no plans to join the army in Rune, he still wanted to know some first-hand information about the North and South Continents.

In addition, judging from the information on the information wall, this gathering should also involve the trade of extraordinary materials and extraordinary items, and the trade of mercenary clubs with military backgrounds will definitely have many extraordinary items suitable for battle, which will be an important channel for Hobart to integrate into the transcendent world.

So Hobart takes this party very seriously, but why do so many people go to the basement party instead of going to the third floor?

He looked at his pocket watch, it was just over 1:20, and there was still more than an hour before the time Anas had told him to meet.

After a moment's thought, Hobart came to his senses, put down the newspaper, and went to the door of the basement, but he was stopped by the waiter.

The waiter was tall and full of leanness, so much more like a bodyguard.

The waiter said, "I'm sorry sir, but this place is only open to some members. ”

Hobert was even more sure of his suspicions, and there was also a party going on in the basement, but it was a gathering of the extraordinary, and the party on the third floor was a gathering of ordinary mercenaries.

This makes sense, otherwise if there are a large number of ordinary people at the party, extraordinary transactions will become like illegal transactions, and they will have to be carried out secretly.

Hobert asked, "What kind of channels do I need to get involved?" ”

The waiter said, "Prove yourself." ”

"How do you prove it?"

The waiter spread his hands and did not reply.

Hobart immediately understood, and he turned on his vision to examine the waiter in front of him, whose left shoulder was lower than his right, and the waiter's left arm, intentionally or unintentionally, was protecting his left armpit.

Hobart concluded, "If I attack your left armpit, it will be easier to knock you out." ”

The waiter was slightly stunned: "That's right, my left armpit was injured on the battlefield, you, you have proven your ability, please." ”

Hobert smiled and nodded, and descended the stairs step by step.

The basement was bigger than he had imagined, like a small theater, with a stage on one side and rows of seats on the other.

Combined with the origin of this building, it is also possible that it was once a small theater.

There were already a lot of people sitting on the seats, and unlike other extraordinary gatherings, most of the people who attended this party knew each other, so there was no need to wear masks or hoods to hide their faces.

Everyone sat together in three or five people, chatting and waiting for the party to begin.

Hobert found a corner and sat down, attending the party for the first time, he was only going to be a bystander, after all, he had nothing to sell and not enough money to buy anything.

At half-past one, an old man in a gown, wearing a golden mask, and gray-haired hair, came out of the back door of the stage. Hobert noticed that the shoes worn by the old man were very long and the clothes on his body were obviously out of touch with the times, as if they were figures from classical oil paintings.

However, the majesty exuded by him made people dare not look directly at him for a long time, and even unconsciously bowed their heads in front of him.

Hobert immediately made a judgment, this is a strong man in the path of the Inquisitor!

The appearance of the old man immediately stopped everyone's chatter.

"Let's get started!" The old man sitting on the chair in the center of the stage seemed to be ordering.

The party officially began, and a middle-aged man with a mustache in the front row was the first to stand up and said: "My mercenary team has just taken over the task of revenge against the Fusak Empire, and now there is still a lack of a teammate who is good at psychics, and it is required to have combat experience with the 'warrior' path or the 'hunter' path above sequence 8." ”

Someone asked, "Where are you going to get revenge on those sons of bitches?" ”

"I can't announce the specific location," the middle-aged man who recruited the man said, "I can only tell you that it is in the Southern Continent." ”

"Not at sea?"

The middle-aged man did not reply, but everyone understood that the Kingdom of Rune did not intend to take revenge on the Vorsack Empire at sea.

Immediately, a lot of people signed up, and the middle-aged people asked all the applicants to go to the second floor for an interview after the party.

Then another young man got up and said: "About half a month ago, on the west bank of the Tasok River in the north of Beckland, there was an extraordinary incident of a small forest disappearing and reappearing. Last week I led a team on a field trip and determined that it was a remnant of the Trenthorst family from the Quaternary period.

"We speculate that there should be extraordinary objects or extraordinary properties in the ruins, which have recently become active for unknown reasons. Now we need to recruit a teammate from the 'Corpse Collector' path to deal with the evil spirits that may exist within! Recruit another teammate from the 'Lawyer' path to deal with the side effects of extraordinary items, as well as summarize the rules of use. ”

Hobert was a little moved, the Trenthorst family is an extraordinary family that has mastered the path of the "Black Emperor", no matter whether there are extraordinary items or extraordinary characteristics in the ruins, it is likely to be something of the "Black Emperor" path.

That's why the other party will recruit teammates from the "Lawyer" path, that is, the "Black Emperor" path, and teammates with this path will be easier to summarize the side effects and rules of use of extraordinary items.

Hobert wanted to get involved, but he was too weak to participate in such an operation, so he had to give up this opportunity.

After that, there were also people who formed teams to go to South Wales to investigate cults, or to go on expeditions to the Southern Continent.

None of these Hobart were interested, so they didn't get to know each other in depth.

After the recruitment process was over, everyone began the trading session.

It is also to stand up and speak, explaining what you want to sell or what you want to buy.

As Hobart had expected, most of the items they traded were extraordinary items that could be used in battle, but they were so expensive that he couldn't afford them right now.

There are also people who will sell some extraordinary traits, which are mainly concentrated in the "Warrior", "Corpse Collector", "Prisoner", and "Hunter" paths, which are currently the main Extraordinaire opponents in the Kingdom of Rune.

The "Warrior" and "Hunter" paths are mostly from the old rival Fusak Empire, and the "Corpse Collector" and "Prisoner" paths are mostly from the local Extraordinary People of the Southern Continent.

It wasn't until about 3 p.m. that the meeting ended.

Although the old man sitting on the stage only said "let's start" and "stop here today", as long as he is there, everyone is very comfortable with the transaction here, and the mercenaries who formed the team also have basic trust in each other.

As the flow of people left the basement, Hobart secretly made up his mind: he still had to work hard to make money!

So when Hobart returned home, he went back to study the three cases that Barton had given him, and now only the job of a lawyer could provide him with income.
