Chapter 161, Contradictions
"What?!B-class mercenary group!?" Paso was shocked.
"That's right, the old man went to inquire, their Ziyan mercenary group was just promoted to a B-level mercenary group today. The old man looked serious.
"It's unbelievable, it's only been a few months since it was promoted to a B-rank mercenary group. Paso's face was horrified.
"Captain Paso, the old man thinks that the person you fought against last night is extremely not simple, and the old man thinks it is better to bring them back. The old man said cautiously.
"No, Nebo, haven't you felt it? Nana, their strength has increased by leaps and bounds since they were with that person, and the skills that that person has cultivated are extremely strange, maybe they can help our Purple Dragon Mercenary Group in the future. Paso said, waving.
However, the old man feared for their safety. The old man looked worried.
"You don't have to worry about that, he really likes Nana. Paso smiled with interest, especially remembering clearly that Long Yunfeng accepted his request for a sword without hesitation last night, which shows how heavy Karina's status in Long Yunfeng's heart is.
The old man was puzzled and said, "Even if he really likes Nana, what if he is taking advantage of Nana's feelings?"
Hearing this, Paso pondered for a while and said, "Well, Nana is entrusted to me by my eldest brother, so it's better to do this, trouble Nibo to follow them first, first, to protect Nana's safety, and second, to get to know that person well, I always feel that that person will be of great help to our Purple Dragon Mercenary Group in the future." โ
"Well, the old man is willing to go. The old man nodded.

Until, in the evening.
The west gate of Mercenary City is relatively the least crowded with the other three city gates, especially when night begins to fall, there are no more people.
However, at this moment, outside the West City Gate, a group of people gathered, there were thirty or forty people.
Moreover, there were six large carriages, all of which were heavy goods, but they were all covered with black cloths, so that people did not know what they were filled with.
Bud is an extremely shrewd businessman, and this time the goods were chosen in the evening, because he didn't want too many people in the city to know, and second, Bud didn't want to entertain the mercenary group. After all, when the mercenary group fulfills the conditions of the escort, all food and accommodation are the responsibility of the employer.
Soon, the goods had been sorted out, and Bard also brought nearly twenty subordinates who were in charge of driving the carriage.
At this time, Hankus walked over and asked impatiently, "Mr. Bud, why are the Purple Flame Mercenary Groups still nowhere to be seen?" โ
"As a mercenary, do you think you will?" said Bard, smiling meaningfully.
"Hehe, too. Hankus smiled awkwardly.
"Let's just wait, it's still early anyway. Bud said.
"Hmm. Hankus nodded, and began to instruct his brothers to arrange at each carriage.
Soon, someone suddenly said, "Someone is coming!"
Everyone was startled, looked around, and saw that in the direction of the west city gate, a few vague figures were slowly walking around.
"Are they coming?" said Bard with a smile.
"No, there are so few people, it shouldn't be like it. Hankus couldn't help but become wary.
Gradually, when those figures became clearer and clearer, everyone was shocked to see that it was indeed someone from the Ziyan Mercenary Group, but there were only a few of them.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bud, we're late. Long Yunfeng took Kajerry and they stepped forward and smiled apologetically.
"Hehe, it's not too late, it's just right. Bard smiled, couldn't help but look around at Long Yunfeng, and asked suspiciously, "Are you the only ones in your Ziyan mercenary group?"
"Yes, it's just us. Long Yunfeng replied lightly.
"Hmph, then you can't talk too much, our Red Fire Mercenary Regiment has dispatched thirty-eight people, but the commissions of our two mercenary groups are equal, do you think it's fair?" Hankus stepped forward and snorted coldly.
"Could it be that the strength of your Red Fire Mercenary Group depends on the number of people?" Long Yunfeng scowled his eyes at Hankus with disdain.
Hankus was stunned for a moment, his face was red, of course he understood that Long Yunfeng was humiliating himself, and said coldly: "Then do you think that your strength can be compared to everyone in our entire mercenary group?"
"No, I didn't say that, but I think our Purple Flame Mercenary Regiment is worth more than you. Long Yunfeng said politely.
"Boy, what are you talking about!, let's try to compete!" the yellow-haired man couldn't help but scold.
"If you want to compete, we'll accompany you!" Cajery and the others stood up angrily, sabre-rattling.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Bard immediately stepped forward to stop him: "You are all mercenary groups hired by me, I don't care what grievances there are between you, as long as the goods have not been delivered to the location, I don't want any fight between your two groups, otherwise I will immediately cancel your escort mission." โ
Hearing this, everyone finally calmed down, but there was always a smell of gunpowder between the two groups.
"Hmph, boy, remember what I said, and don't be a burden to us, for we will never help you. Hankus gave Long Yunfeng a cold look.
"As it happens, we didn't plan to help you out of the way. Long Yunfeng replied disdainfully.
Hankus snorted, turned and walked away.
After Bard saw Hankus and them walking away, he smiled at Long Yunfeng and them with a smile on his face: "Hehe, I have already learned about the affairs of your Ziyan Mercenary Group, I believe you." โ
"Hehe, it's still Mr. Bud who is reasonable. Long Yunfeng smiled slightly.
"Well, but I want you to take care of the cargo, which is important to me and the dwarves. Bard reminded solemnly.
"We know that we will do everything in our power to protect this shipment, after all, this is our first escort mission. Long Yunfeng replied cautiously.
"Thank you. Bard smiled gratefully, and then called out to everyone, "All right! We can go now, just go west." โ
With that, Bud scrambled into a humble carriage nestled between the goods, which he enjoyed.
Suddenly, Hankus waved his sword and shouted, "Brothers!
As soon as the words ended, a burst of excited cheers rang out, and a new journey began, a caravan like a long dragon, and began to officially head towards the dwarves.
The leader of the team was the Red Fire Mercenary Regiment, and the domineering Hankus took the lead and led the entire caravan forward.
And Long Yunfeng and the others walked leisurely at the back, and they were talking very leisurely.
At this time, the yellow-haired man who was angry stepped forward and said dissatisfiedly: "Regiment Leader, you see that the Ziyan Mercenary Group has no sense of vigilance at all, don't you go and talk about them?"
"Roque, have you forgotten what I said again?" Hankus said sinisterly, holding back his eyes at the yellow-haired man, "Let them suffer more, it will only benefit us." โ
"Hehe, the head of the regiment said yes. Roque smiled darkly.
However, they didn't know about Long Yunfeng's words, but Long Yunfeng and they still kept it very chic, like some sightseeing tourists.
After walking for several hours, the sky gradually darkened, the surrounding road was not very easy to walk, and the carriage was constantly jolting strongly, as if it was about to overturn at any moment.
"Stop!"
Hankus suddenly waved his hand and shouted.
Everyone was startled and immediately stopped.
"What's going on?" Bard walked out of the carriage with a displeased face.
Then, Hankus came over and said solemnly: "Mr. Bud, it is getting late now, it is inconvenient to walk, and we have already walked dozens of miles, so it is better for us to pause and rest, and we can hurry early tomorrow." โ
Hearing this, Bard looked at the darkness around him, pondered for a while, and said, "Okay, but you have to take care of the goods." โ
"Don't worry, we'll be here. Hankus said.
"Hmm. Bard nodded, and continued back in the carriage, which was the most comfortable.
Immediately, Hankus began to signal some people to start a fire, after all, at night, the weather is relatively cold, and after a lot of travel, the stomach is also hungry.
"Yunfeng, you see they all stopped. Karina said.
"Hehe, then let's meditate here, tomorrow is still a long way off. Long Yunfeng said with a smile.
"Hmm. The people nodded, looked for a place, and began to meditate.
Soon after, the fire was lit, and Hankus and the others began to bring out the prepared meat and roast it happily.
At this point, Hankus called Roque over and said, "Go see what they're doing." โ
"Yes. Roque replied and walked away.
Couldn't help it, Luo Ke secretly approached Long Yunfeng and them along the side of the carriage, and was shocked to find that Long Yunfeng and them were sitting motionless on the ground like statues.
"What are you playing?" Roque looked incredulous, even as he turned away.
Seeing that Roque replied with a puzzled face, Hankus frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Roque scratched his head and said puzzledly: "They are all so strange, they just sit there together and don't move, but it feels very weird." โ
"Hehe, I'm just cultivating, you're thinking too much. Hankus smiled disdainfully.
"Really?" Luo Ke's face was full of sadness, although it seemed that Long Yunfeng and they were all cultivating, but the feeling of cultivation was a kind of incomprehensible feeling, and it didn't seem to be that simple.
Seeing Roque's contemplative face, Hankus couldn't help but take out a bottle of wine in his hand, and said with an excited smile: "Come! Brother Roque, all the brothers in our group will have another good time tonight!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone cheered in ecstasy, and the whole scene instantly became excited.
In fact, this is the life of a mercenary, wherever he goes, he is at home, and those who can be together are brothers who treat each other with all sincerity.
