Chapter 10: The World of Mercenaries
Keynes and Randall sat side by side at the head of the mercenary group's chamber.
Randall's face was full of rage, and Keynes had a mysterious smile on his face.
Adeline, Tony, Angus, and Elf Iraya sat on the left and right, only Iraya had a faint smile on her face, Adeline was expressionless, and Tony and Angus both had their heads down.
Arthur stood behind Adeline, and under the cover of Adeline's body, he looked back and forth like a little mouse, his eyes secretly looking back and forth on several people.
"Tony, did you provoke this incident again?" Randall's anger was directed at Tony first.
"Tristi and I only had a few verbal conflicts, and it was Arthur who really provoked the matter. ”
In the face of Randall's anger, Tony, who had previously claimed that everything was behind Arthur, immediately pushed him out very unjustly.
Adeline glared at Tony fiercely, and even Angus deliberately pulled his chair aside to keep his distance from him.
Randall sneered, "Don't think I don't know what's going on? If it weren't for you, would Tristi have a conflict with a child? Half of your commission for your last mission will be deducted, and you'll not be allowed to step out of the mercenary group for a month." ”
Tony jumped up from his chair and cried out, "I was wronged! I really didn't provoke it, Angus can prove it for me!"
"I had drunk too much and didn't know anything. Angus spread his hands.
"Angus, you bastard, you're so unrighteous!" Tony was about to pounce on Angus, and when he saw Randall's menacing gaze, he retreated.
"Arthur, you stand up for me. Randall's next anger was directed at Arthur, "I really underestimated you! I actually went to challenge Tristy, there are many ways for you to die, don't pull up the mercenary group! Remember, you are not a member of the mercenary group, I can drive you away at any time!"
Arthur bowed his head and said nothing.
"I will deduct your pay for three months, and you will not be allowed to leave the headquarters without my permission for three months. Get out of here now. Randall waved impatiently at Arthur, as if he didn't want to see him for a minute.
That's it? The kid was paid three silver coins for three months? Was it punishment or protection? Everyone in the room looked at Randall with amazement.
"Thank you, Uncle Randall. Arthur bowed deeply and ran out as fast as he could.
Keynes smiled as he looked at Arthur's back, "Old man, you now recognize that he is the biggest takeaway from my trip, right?"
"Boss, don't you want to deduct my pay this time?" Tony leaned over with a grin.
"Get out!" Cairns and Randall yelled at the same time.
......
Arthur officially stayed in the Blue Enchantress Mercenary Regiment from this day on, and a new world of mercenaries slowly opened its doors to him.
The Beland Continent has never been a peaceful and fertile land, where various races coexist side by side, large and small wars are continuous, the deep mountains and wilderness are infested with demonic beasts, which have become a forbidden area for intelligent creatures, and bands of thieves are rampant in the countryside, looting and killing occur from time to time.
The strength of the armies of each race can only protect large towns, which makes mercenary groups very popular as the main armed force outside of the army. As long as they are paid accordingly, the mercenary group accepts a variety of entrusted tasks from escort and escort to search and hunt, and even accepts commissions from the kingdom to participate in the war in wartime.
But mercenaries are not a group that can be unprincipled and unscrupulous for the sake of profit, mercenaries also have their own glory and rules, protection, trust and courage are the three major qualities that mercenaries admire.
Guarding is the responsibility of mercenaries, and as long as they accept the entrusted task, they will sacrifice their lives to protect the safety of their employers and goods.
Trust is the life of a mercenary, and you must trust your teammates, even if you die in battle, you must block attacks from behind for your brother.
Courage is the courage of a mercenary, this is a high-risk profession that trades life for payment, and a coward can never become a good mercenary.
The level of the mercenary group in the Beland Continent is divided into eight levels from the lowest G level to the highest S level, and it is said that there is an X-level god-level mercenary group above the S-level of the super mercenary group. Corresponding to the level of the mercenary group, the mercenaries are also from G-level to S-class, and according to legend, there are also X-level mercenaries of the gods, who accept the commission of the gods and are the warriors of the gods!
As a B-class mercenary group, the Blue Enchantress only has more than a hundred mercenaries, which is the smallest number of the three major mercenary groups in Huaorez City. However, the strength of the Blue Enchantress is the strongest of the three mercenary groups, and the first-level and second-level warriors are almost the main force of most mercenary groups in Huaorez City, but in the Blue Enchantress, the third-level warrior is the minimum standard for becoming a member of the mercenary group.
Captain John Cairns is also one of only two Rank 8 powerhouses in Huaolez City. The other was Kunto, the division commander of the garrison in the city, but he was rarely involved in disputes outside of army affairs. This is also the main reason why Cui Sidi was so humiliated and did not dare to come to the door to provoke.
The two deputy leaders of the Blue Enchantress are Adeline and Randall, and Adeline is a level 6 fire mage. Randall was a warrior, but because of a broken arm, his rank was no longer a measure of his prowess.
Tony the Thief, Angus the Hunter, and Ilaya the Archer are the core of the mercenary group, they are all fifth-level captains, and some ordinary tasks are led by a few of them in turn.
Randall, the deputy head of the regiment, is a special existence in the mercenary group, and the mercenaries sometimes discuss privately that Randall is the leader of the blue enchantress, because in addition to accepting and assigning tasks, everything from finance to logistics is in Randall's charge. His violent temper made him even more daring to provoke in the mercenary group, and even the head of the group, Keynes, had to communicate with Randall in a consultative tone.
After a long time as Randall's assistant, Arthur discovers that although Randall seems to have a short temper, he is actually a very good person.
Randall never treated Arthur as a servant, including cleaning the room himself, and he first asked Arthur to teach him to read and write, and then let him help organize the storeroom.
Arthur is a smart boy who learns very quickly what Randall teaches, and he cherishes the opportunity to stay in the mercenary group and takes the initiative to help Randall and the other mercenaries do a lot of things.
Before Randall got up, the washing water had been prepared and placed in the hall. When Randall opened the door, the yard had already been cleaned. A month later, Arthur was able to quickly and accurately find everything in the huge treasury of the mercenary group, two months later, Randall found himself shouting Arthur more and more often, and three months later, as soon as Randall opened his mouth, Arthur had already put what he wanted in front of him.
Even the mercenaries gradually discovered new changes in the mercenary group, first of all, Randall rarely lost his temper, and sometimes there was a smile on his fat face, and the other was that all weapons and armor were spotless and shiny no matter when they were used. Some trivial chores in the mercenary group, find that little guy named Arthur, he can always find a way for you.
Soon, everyone in the mercenary group began to like the little guy, and Arthur's good days had just begun......
