In the territory of the Roland Empire, in an ordinary, small mercenary tavern, in front of a bulletin board at the counter in the long bar corridor, there were all kinds of mercenaries, and various missions were listed on the bulletin board. The magic words on it were constantly changing, showing the latest missions. The mercenaries stared quietly at the magic words on the notice board, their eyes shining with anticipation.
More mercenaries looked busy and in a hurry. Most of them had already accepted the mission. During the process, there was a proverb circulating among the mercenaries.
"It's not doing the task, it's on the way to do the task!"
Those penniless mercenaries received considerable rewards after completing their tasks, and then began to spend their money and drink, live a life of spending money, and quickly squandered the money they earned with their lives, and then became penniless Wen, and then go to the task...
Infinite loop, over and over again.
This is life!
The life of a mercenary.
The mercenary tavern is such a place for mercenaries to have fun. Of course, it also has another function, that is, it is the most well-informed place in Noah's continent.
At this moment, the mercenaries in the mercenary tavern were attracted by an explosive news.
"Hey! Have you heard? A boy who is only twenty years old has become a strong man in the sanctuary!"
"Tch, what's so strange about this? Your news is out of date. Not only do I know that he has become a strong man in the Sanctuary, but I also know that his name is Ron!" A wretched man said with a smile, "I also know that that The guy named Ron made a big fuss at the wedding venue of the Doro Kingdom, killed the officiant and the guardian of the Doro Kingdom, and robbed the bride in full view... Hehe!"
"No way, he killed three mid-level Sanctuary powerhouses just after he was promoted to Sanctuary?"
"The first level of the sanctuary kills the middle level of the sanctuary? Impossible, what is his occupation?"
"Uh... I heard it's a necromancer!"
"What? Necromancer, did I hear you right? A necromancer who looks like garbage can actually kill a strong man in the sanctuary? Are you kidding me?"
"No, not at all! On the contrary, everything I said is true. The boy named Ron is not a toy summoned by the liars we saw on the streets of the Roland Empire, but the most mysterious and powerful in the legend. The undead magic of…”
"What, the legendary undead magic, but this... isn't it just a legend?"
"The legends are all true! Let me tell you, don't tell them... According to reliable sources, those street skills are just hard to learn. The real power of undead magic is beyond your imagination..."
The wretched-looking guy said in a serious manner, looking at the crowd listening attentively and the ears pricked up from the side, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.
In the mercenary world, some people are not very powerful, but they are well-informed, experienced, and respected. This wretched man in front of him belongs to this category.
In the Doro Kingdom, Ron made a big fuss at the wedding scene, and the news of killing three sanctuary powerhouses spread all of a sudden, and the entire Noah Continent shook. Everyone's first reaction when they heard the news was—impossible !
"Twenty-year-old young Sanctuary powerhouse!"
"Necromancer!"
"One against three!"
"Use the strength of the first-level sanctuary to kill the powerhouse of the middle-level third-level sanctuary!"
All kinds of factors combine to form a myth that is even more bizarre than legends. For a while, Ron's name spread throughout the entire continent. Ron's heroic deeds were spread everywhere in the streets and alleys, and became a favorite topic among mercenaries. topic.
"Is this also the reason why that twenty-year-old boy became a strong man in the sanctuary?" A mercenary on the table next to him interrupted, shaking his head with a look of disbelief, "I don't believe there is such a genius Existence, even if it exists, has been attracted by the major forces, and it is impossible to remain unknown. Besides, the legendary undead magic has disappeared for a long time, and it may not be known whether it is true or not. If we take a step back, even if it is true, then this is called Where did Ron's guy learn his undead magic?"
"This..." The wretched man was so unreasonable when he was asked, he blushed, but he still insisted, "Of course it is true, the news I release is never false, not only here, but the whole continent has been raging, Your Excellency, believe it or not!"
"Hmph!" The mercenary snorted, stood up, and said coldly, "Just follow what everyone else says!" After finishing speaking, he ignored everyone and strode out.
"Hmph! This guy, take a step late, and see if I don't teach him a lesson!"
"That's right, look at his arrogant look!"
The mercenary's attitude aroused everyone's displeasure, and some people wanted to teach him a lesson.
"Forget it, let's have a drink! Why do you care about him?" The wretched man didn't bother with him either.
"Yes! Yes! Drink, we drink..."
As he said that, the bowls containing bad wine came together one by one, and the mercenary tavern was filled with wanton laughter again.
With a bang, at this time, the wooden door of the mercenary tavern was opened, and two figures came in. They were both women, dressed professionally, one was a thief and the other was a magician. He was in a hurry, as if he had traveled a long way.
"Boss, is there anything to eat, hurry up, we are starving to death!"
The thief girl started yelling as soon as she entered the tavern, and then sat down at a table carelessly.
"Hello, distinguished guest, our mercenary tavern has everything you need, what would you like to order?"
A waitress took the initiative to say hello. She looked at the two of them curiously. Apart from the thief woman, the other female magician was wearing a hood, making it difficult to see her face. The waitress bowed, It's like saying hello to the guests.
As soon as these people came in, they attracted the attention of many mercenaries. They saw two young women with good figures, and their eyes were shining. With an exquisite and protruding figure, the other female magician couldn't see her face clearly, but judging from her figure, she was obviously better than the female thief. Some guys were already lustful, and they were already planning how to tease her.
"Sister! Sit!"
The thief woman pulled the female magician to sit down, and the female magician quietly took off her hood, revealing a delicate and exquisite face, with a pair of bright eyes flowing, heroic, especially the aristocratic atmosphere that inadvertently exudes from her body, It even made the vulgar surroundings stunned and drooling.
Excellent, simply excellent! Moreover, she is a noble female magician, and some mercenaries' minds began to stir around the corner.
"Sister, what do you want to eat?"
The thieves woman asked the female magician, it seems that they are two sisters, and they even look alike.
"casual!"
The female magician responded lightly, and at the same time, a pair of beautiful eyes swept around, the kind of eyes that were being watched made her very uncomfortable.
"Oh, okay, here are two bottles of ale and five catties of cooked beef!" said the thief woman.
"No, I can't eat so much!" The female magician frowned and said dissatisfiedly.
"Uh, let's have a bottle of beer and three catties of cooked beef!" The thief woman said after being taken aback for a moment.
"We still have to hurry, we can't drink, we need three catties of cooked beef!" the female magician said coldly, she was obviously not in a good mood.
"Uh..." The thief woman smiled awkwardly, and then said to the waitress, "Then three catties of cooked beef!"
"Okay, guest, please wait a moment!" The waitress said with a smile, and turned back to prepare.
"Sister, do we need to save so much? It's not like we don't have money!" After the waitress left, the thief woman muttered dissatisfiedly.
"If you have money, don't waste it!" The female magician said coldly, "Besides, I can't eat it, these are for you!"
"..."
"Okay!" The thieves woman sighed and said, "Sister, I know, you are still bothered by that matter..."
One of these two women is the thief Catherine, and the other is the magician Juliana. They are important figures in the Ebian rebel army, and they are on their way back to Manchester through the Roland Empire.
Catherine was fine, but Juliana looked preoccupied. She sighed and said, "Isn't that... oh! Now even Mrs. Alpha can't count on it!"
Alpha was originally a special envoy of the Roland Empire. He once assisted the rebels in Manchester to open the supply channel and lay down the Colored Stone Fort. However, since last month, the supplies have gradually decreased, and finally disappeared altogether.
Julianna sensed that something was unusual, she didn't dare to neglect, and rushed to the imperial capital of the Roland Empire with Catherine overnight, begging to see the special envoy of Elfa, and asking what was going on.
Unexpectedly, when she came to the imperial capital, she couldn't even see anyone, not only Alpha, but even some high-ranking officials who usually came into contact with. At this time, Juliana finally understood that there must be some agreement between the Holy Roman Empire and the Roland Empire. With a tacit understanding, the Roland Empire turned around and sold them.
This is politics, naked politics, as long as there is a deal, everything can be sold, Juliana has no choice but to rush back and think about countermeasures.
"Sister, according to reliable news, the Holy Roman Empire is preparing to attack us. They sent more than 500,000 elite troops to the south in three directions, intending to wipe us out in one fell swoop..." Catherine said worriedly.
"In these matters, even the Holy See is involved. I heard that they sent a saint to personally supervise the battle!"
"I know all this! I also got the news, so I decided to rush back! It's a waste of time over there!" Juliana looked bitter, "Now the attitude of the Roland Empire is ambiguous, obviously we don't want to care about it, we can only Think of another way!"
"Huh!" Catherine was indignant, "These pious guys put away gifts quickly and hard, but they push things back and forth, and they are useless at critical moments..."
Catherine blinked, "Sister, that Alpha...didn't help you either?"
"Lord Elfa didn't see me at all! I'm afraid no one can count on me this time!" Julianna sighed and said with a wry smile, "500,000 troops, 500,000... Hehe, I'm afraid it will directly take Manchester It's crushed!"
Catherine raised her head, her eyes flickered, and she said bitterly, "Damn it, it would be great if we had a sanctuary strong among us, then the Holy Roman Empire wouldn't dare to be arrogant with us!"
The two sisters were talking, when suddenly a handsome young mercenary at the next table stood up, picked up a bowl of wine, walked to the two women's table with a smile, and said with a smile, "Hehe, you two, meeting is fate , would you mind having a drink with me?"
While talking, the guy ignored the two people's disagreement, sat down straight away, and said, "By the way, I will invite you to this table!"
At this time, the waitress brought Juliana and Catherine's things up, and the guy smiled and raised his glass, "Come on, two beauties, let's have a drink!"
Those mercenaries saw that handsome mercenary drinking with two big beauties, their eyes burst out with jealousy, there was no way, who would tell someone to be handsome.
The handsome mercenary had a charming smile on his face. He was making a bet with his companions just now that he would get both of these two women into bed. He had a premonition that tonight would be a wonderful night.
"roll!"
The sound was not loud, but everyone in the mercenary tavern could hear it, but it came from the female magician.
The hand of the handsome mercenary holding the wine glass was frozen in the air like this, his face was stiff and embarrassed, he was handsome, he was always in the flower field, and he was always in a position to benefit, even many prostitutes were willing to pay back, but unexpectedly, in the two women But he couldn't get off the stage in front of him.
"What did you say?" The handsome mercenary's face turned red all of a sudden, and he felt that he had been greatly insulted.
"I told you to go, didn't you hear?" Juliana raised her voice.
Catherine was a little gloating, her sister was in a bad mood, and it was obvious that this kid came to touch him.
"You... you... I'm going to kill you!"
The handsome mercenary was furious, and his hand suddenly reached for the space pocket at his waist.
His movements were fast, but Juliana's movements were even faster. She waved her right hand, and a flame appeared out of nowhere in the void.
With a sound of "Boom," the flame exploded, and the handsome mercenary flew out of the door like flying through the clouds.
"Great Magister!"
As soon as Julianna made a move, all the mercenaries were taken aback. The arrogant guys put away their contempt one by one, and became silent. Some of them were still glad that they didn't go up to seek death.
The great magister is definitely the best in the mercenary world, at least he is also the head of a large mercenary regiment. With the strength of that great magister, killing everyone in the tavern does not waste any power at all.
The handsome mercenary was thrown out without much injury. It was obvious that the other party had shown mercy. He lost face and ignored the laughter of others, and ran away with a blushing face.
Catherine's eyes lit up, "Sister, your strength has improved again, and you are now at the peak of the great magister. It seems that you will break through the sanctuary soon!"
"The sanctuary is so easy to break through!" Juliana withdrew her hand, sat down again, and sighed silently, "I have also been stuck in the bottleneck of the peak master level, and I have not been able to break through for several years. See It should be impossible in the short term!"
Catherine sighed silently, "I really don't know how those geniuses cultivated. Some of them cultivated to become strong in the sanctuary at a very young age. It is said that a strong man in the sanctuary promised to become the guardian of a country called Doro Kingdom. As soon as those hostile countries and forces heard the news, they immediately withdrew their troops."
"I also know something about this! I heard that this strong man in the sanctuary is too young, only less than twenty years old!" At this time, Julianna slowly raised her head, a look of unwillingness flashed in her eyes, " Back then, I was also a genius attracting everyone's attention, with unmatched magical talent, and I became a great magister at a young age, but why...why I have been unable to break through the sanctuary, I am not reconciled, I will never be reconciled!"
Juliana has reasons to resent. Others can break through at such a young age, so she should be able to. In her opinion, as long as she breaks through the sanctuary, all difficulties will be solved, especially the news of the army's imminent pressure on her heart like a big stone. , making her breathless.
Juliana has never been so thirsty for power!
Catherine looked at her sister quietly. She knew that compared to herself, her sister was under more pressure. Suddenly, her heart moved, and she grabbed Juliana's hand, "Sister, it is said that the young strong man in the sanctuary is the only one. Just promoted to Sanctuary, look, can we pull him over?"
"Being with us means fighting against the Holy See, and I don't think he is willing to do it!" Julianna pondered for a moment, before sighing, "Try it, try it, or if it doesn't work, just give it a try." Give up, by the way, Catherine, do you know the origin of this person? And where is he?"
"It's not difficult!" Catherine smiled mysteriously, "Wouldn't it be clear if you went to inquire about it?"
