Chapter 170: Meet Gad Again
Before Luka finished speaking, Lance grabbed a small piece of dry bread and threw it at Luca, and said angrily: "What nonsense, go to the mercenary union after eating, I just don't know if it's too early." β
"No, I've dealt with church people before, and they're all very punctual, and after you've eaten, we'll be about the same amount of time. β
"Okay, let's see what happens after we go, and if it goes well, after purchasing the necessary things, we'll go straight to the battlefield on the Western Front. β
After Lance and Lilith had finished eating, Lukka took the initiative to settle the bill.
Coming to the Mercenary Guild, Luca took Lance and Lilith directly to the counter where yesterday's task was handed in.
It was still John sitting at the counter.
When he saw Luca coming, he smiled professionally and stood up to say hello.
"Three, the people who want to see you have come, and I will take you up?"
"Okay, excuse me, Mr. John. β
"Luka Warrior is gracious, it's my job. β
With that, John took the three of Lance directly to the third floor.
When you go to the third floor, you can see that the dΓ©cor here is obviously much better than that on the second floor, and it is clear that this must be the place to entertain important guests.
Lance looked at Luca with some curiosity, presumably he hadn't been here before.
He followed John to the door of a double-door room, and then John stopped, and said to Lance with a professional smile: "Several, the people who want to see you are inside, and I won't follow you in at the request of the employer, how many ......?"
John's tone paused, and he looked at Lukka with an inquiring gaze.
After these exchanges, John has identified Lukka as the leader or military advisor of their mercenary team.
Lukka looked at John, smiled slightly and said, "Then Mr. John, please take care of yourself, thank you." β
After John left, Luca saw Lance nod to him and gently slammed the door.
Just after there was a knock on the door, a man's footsteps were heard inside.
After a few breaths, the door opened.
The man who opened the door was dressed in bright silver knight's armor and wore a scarlet cloak.
The man nodded to Luca, who was standing at the front, and then made a gesture of please.
When he saw Lance following him, both of them had a look on their faces at the same time.
"Lance?"
"Brexar?"
The two shouted each other's names almost at the same time, and Blexar and Lance hugged each other tightly at the door.
Then a man's slightly stunned voice came from inside the room: "Lance, is it really you?"
After a brief moment of stunnedness, the man in the room regained his composure, and there was no joy or anger on his face.
He coughed lightly again.
Hearing the coughing of the man in the room, Blexar noticed that he was slightly rude, and he hurriedly separated from Lance, smiling apologetically at Luca, who was standing aside, and Lilith behind Lance.
"A few warriors, please forgive me for my faux pas, a few inside, please. β
Afterwards, after Blexar gave a knightly salute to Lance and the others, he made a gesture of invitation to Lance and the others without losing his grace.
Lance had already seen the man sitting on the soft chair, the same one he had met more than two years ago with Gad Mora, who had met in the small town of Lucerne.
However, when he looked at Gade's serious expression, he also held back some of the words he wanted to say.
He understands that now that there are outsiders around, it is not convenient to say a lot of things.
Following Blexal's guidance, Lance and the others arrived at a large reception table.
At this time, Gade stood up from the soft chair, walked in front of Lance and the others, and nodded slightly with his hands on his chest.
"Thank you very much for the help of several warriors to eradicate the evil Scarlet Dog, may the glory of the Twilight God shine on you forever. β
"May the glory of the twilight God be with us. β
Lukka replied in the same way as Gad.
Although Luca was not a faithful believer in the Twilight God, he was well aware of these etiquettes when dealing with the clergy of the church.
At the same time, Lance and Lilith, who were on the side, also learned Luca's movements in a similar way.
"Please sit down and talk, come, this way, please. β
After Lance and the others sat down, Gard sat down opposite.
After sitting down, Blexar picked up the glass from the table, poured a glass of wine for each of them, and then stood straight to the side.
After a brief introduction to each other, Gade was not verbose, and said directly to the point: "A few warriors, I have read your mercenary information, presumably there are other members who have not arrived, right?"
Listening to Gade's words, Lance didn't say anything, although he didn't understand what Gade was going to do, but seeing that Gad's eyes had been on Luka's body all the time, there were some words, let Luca say something.
He took a sip from his glass and looked at Lukka in silence.
Luca didn't hide Gade's question, and said directly: "The other members of our mercenary team are preparing for our next trip, I think His Excellency Gade invited us this time, it should be more than just to meet us, right?"
"Haha...... Warrior Lukka also understands people, since you can successfully kill the bloody dog, you must have extraordinary skills, yes, I invite you to come this time, and there are indeed some things I want you to help with. β
"Oh, Lord Gard, please speak, if there is anyone who can use a few brothers, just ask. β
As Lukka spoke, he glanced at Lance, who was sitting silently on the side, intentionally or unintentionally.
From the moment he entered the door, he could already see that Lance had a great relationship with these two men.
If it doesn't affect the general direction, he will respond directly, which can be regarded as selling Lance a favor.
And to be able to stay with Lance all the time, why wouldn't Luca do it?
"Haha...... Luca Warrior is really a cheerful person, come, drink this glass of wine first, and then we will continue. β
With that, Gard picked up the glass in front of him and bumped it with Luca, Lance, and Lilith.
However, when Lilith was about to drink, she was stopped by Lance and said, "She won't drink, let's ...... Haha......"
Lilith then glared at Lance quietly and put the cup down.
Seeing this, Gad smiled slightly to show that he didn't mind.
After a few people drank, Gard continued: "In the past two years, there have been many undead on the Kstana continent, and there have been constant wars between the three major forces, and the church has been a little weak and powerless in the matter of exterminating the undead and eradicating evil. β
Speaking of this, Gard's tone paused, he glanced at Lance, and saw that he nodded before continuing: "Presumably the power struggle within the church, you have also heard of it, although I have been expelled by the church, but I still take the eradication of evil as my own responsibility, this time I came to the mercenary fortress, just to be here, for the combat power fighting on the Western Front, looking for elites, so that the evil forces on the Western Front battlefield can be eradicated in one fell swoop." β
Listening to Gard's words, Lukka looked at Lance with a frown.
Lance nodded and then took over and said, "Can you be more specific? If it's a death, I won't do it!"
Although Lance has a very good relationship with Gad, he is now representing their mercenary squad.
If it was just him, he would have agreed directly.
But now that there are Luca, Quilles, Di Lansel and Dumb, he will not take the task rashly.
"Haha...... The Lance brothers, responsible for fighting the undead on the Western Front are the Church Knights, the head of the Third Knights, Tours Gerard, although he has the help of the goblins and dwarves, but they are too few in number, so the war has lasted for nearly a year, and still no progress has been made, and even the casualties of the church knights have been high, if this continues, the lack of troops is likely to lead to the rout of the Western Front. β
After Gad sighed, he turned his head to look at Luka again, he picked up the wine glass and signaled, took a small sip shallowly, put down the glass and continued: "I came to call the mercenaries this time, and they are recruited in the situation of mercenary, and the remuneration is judged according to the level of the realm, the mercenary below the high-level realm will have fifty silver coins per day, and the mercenaries above the high-level realm will have one gold coin per day, but you can also join in the situation of the mercenary team or mercenary group, and the remuneration will be discussed according to the specific situation." However, the strength of several mercenary squads is extraordinary, and I think it would be more cost-effective for you to join in the form of mercenary squads, and I can call the shots and give you six gold coins a day as a reward. β
At this point, Gad's words suddenly stopped, and he looked at Lance with a sly smile on his face.
At the same time, Luca also cast an inquiring glance at Lance.
Looking at the appearance of the two, Lance shook his head, Gad is on business, and by the way, he will play the emotional card again.
Lance shrugged helplessly and said to Gad: "On the Western Front, it seems that we don't have any reason to refuse, okay, I'll make the decision and agree for a few of my friends, but I can say in advance, after I go, I have to do some of my own things first." β
What Lance said was naturally the matter of going to Ike.
Ever since he emerged from the abyss, he has been thinking about how to tell Ike that he is still alive.
Now that the location of Gad's mission did not conflict with where he was going, he simply agreed.
And he looked at Gard with the look in his eyes that seemed to have something to say.
But it's not easy to say because Luca is there.
Lance smiled, then turned to Luca, who understood, and after a few brief words of greeting with Gad again, he found an excuse to leave the room.
