"Little brother, the seats here are full. I wonder if I can sit with you."
At this moment, a slightly thick voice came from beside Jian Chen. Hearing the words, Jian Chen raised his head slightly, and saw a middle-aged man standing across from the table where he was sitting with a smile on his face. His eyes were full of kindness.
The middle-aged man was about forty years old, and he was wearing a cyan robe, but Jian Chen with sharp eyes could tell that this robe was made of rough fabrics, which belonged to a very cheap type of robe. The type of middle-aged man has short black hair that is an inch long, and his appearance is unremarkable.
Jian Chen nodded with a smile, and said, "Since the tables in the restaurant are full, and I don't need such a wide seat by myself, I should share it with everyone, please take a seat!"
"In that case, then I would like to thank this little brother." The middle-aged man smiled boldly, bowed his hands to Jian Chen, and immediately pulled away the stool and sat down.
"Child, bring a pound of liquor and a pound of horse meat!" The middle-aged man shouted as soon as he sat down.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment!" The shop assistant replied from a distance.
Jian Chen's gaze stayed on the middle-aged man's face for a while, then he ignored him and ate his own food.
The middle-aged man looked at Jian Chen again, hehe smiled and said, "I don't know what to call this little brother."
"Jianchen!" Jian Chen said in a somewhat vague tone, chewing his meat.
"Jianchen, huh, this name sounds nice." The middle-aged man looked up and down Jianchen, and then asked again, "Little brother Jianchen, you must be a mercenary too."
Jian Chen nodded, "That's right, because of my strength, I'm just a low-level D-rank mercenary now."
The level of mercenaries is linked to their own strength and the success of completing tasks, and the lowest-level D-level mercenaries are generally rookies who have just been promoted to saints, but among D-level mercenaries, there are still some Some people who have no talent in cultivation and have not condensed holy soldiers, although the middle-aged man on the opposite side showed a very kind gesture, but Jian Chen did not reveal his accurate strength.
The middle-aged man smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Little brother, you're probably only twenty years old at most, at such an age you can successfully condense a holy soldier and become a holy man, and your future will be limitless. Ah." The middle-aged man said these words with sincerity. Just when he said this, the middle-aged man suddenly sighed and continued: "I think back then, I was only twenty-five years old when I managed to condense it in my body. Holy soldier, break through to become a saint, and little brother, you can actually reach the strength of a saint at the age of twenty, presumably in the near future, there will be another earth saint teacher with outstanding talent on Tianyuan Continent." When it comes to the four characters of the earth sage, the middle-aged man's expression is full of yearning.
Hearing this, Jian Chen couldn't help but glance at the middle-aged man again. He already had a good impression of the middle-aged man in his heart, but that was all.
It was only at the age of twenty-five that a holy soldier condensed. In terms of Tianyuan Continent, aptitude is indeed mediocre. For such a person, the greatest limit in his life is almost at the stage of the great holy teacher. If he does not encounter any chance, I am afraid that he will not be able to break through to become an earth sage in his lifetime.
After all, there is a very difficult Tianjian between the Great Sage and the Earth Sage. The difficulty of this Tianjian is hundreds of thousands of times more difficult than condensing a holy soldier to become a saint, because, from The Great Sage has broken through to the Earth Sage. If you don't pay attention, you will fall into a place of eternal doom. The light ones will be seriously injured, their cultivation will be completely lost, and they will become useless for life. And if it is serious, it will directly kill Huangquan.
Between the Great Sage and the Earth Sage, there is a hurdle of life and death. On the Tianyuan Continent, there are many people with mediocre aptitudes who stop at the Great Sage all their lives, and have no hope of breaking through to the Earth Sage. And the number of people who die at this step is no longer in the minority.
To break through from the Great Sage to the Earth Sage, the success rate is only 1%.
Jian Chen knew this very well. Because of this knowledge, he had read it in the library of the academy and the library of Changyang Mansion.
"Little brother, presumably you haven't joined the mercenary group yet." The middle-aged man looked at Jian Chen with a smile and said.
Hearing this, Jian Chen's heart moved. He had already guessed what the middle-aged man was going to do next, but he still nodded and said, "Not bad!"
"Little brother, why don't you come to our flame mercenary group. Although our flame mercenary group is a small-scale mercenary group, the people inside are very kind." The middle-aged man showed a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Hearing this, Jian Chen fell silent. Before, he had never thought about joining any mercenary group. In his opinion, no matter which mercenary group he joined, to himself, It is a drag, a heavy package, which can not only limit his performance, but also cause great obstacles to his own strength improvement. After all, if his strength is to increase rapidly, the only way is to absorb the magic core. The energy inside, and the number of magic cores required is a very large number. If he enters the Warcraft Mountains alone to hunt the beasts, then all the gains will naturally be obtained by him alone, so that he can barely keep up with his consumption. speed.
But if he joins a team, although it would be easier to hunt down monsters, the distribution of the number of demon cores would become a problem. It can be said that if Jian Chen really joins the mercenary group, unless he acts alone, then , after all, the distribution of magic cores is not as much as if he hunted monsters alone.
Seeing Jian Chen's contemplation, the middle-aged man did not give up at all, and continued to say: "Little brother Jianchen, our Flame Mercenary Group is just a small mercenary group, and there are no restrictions on members, unlike those large-scale mercenary groups, which All kinds of rules and rules make people one of the first two. You join our mercenary group just to provide everyone with an easier and simpler way to make money. After all, you also know that hunting monsters is a very important thing. It’s a matter of making money, and after all, the magic core can be sold for a very good price, and it is also essential to cultivate the power of the Holy Spirit, and the other, even the corpses of Warcraft, are items purchased by major restaurants at high prices.”
"The so-called more people are more powerful. Once we have more people, even if it is a high-level monster, we can still kill it. Just imagine, once we successfully kill a high-level monster, the profit is in the end. You must know how big it is." Speaking of this, the middle-aged man paused, stared at Jian Chen, and continued: "And if you are alone, you may be able to deal with some low-level monsters, but these monsters sell You can't sell it for a few dollars, but it took a lot of effort to kill it. Maybe the money sold is not enough for your healing fee, and it can't be ruled out that once you encounter a powerful monster and a group of monsters attacked, Do you think you can handle the pursuit of several or even dozens of monsters by yourself
Seeing that Jian Chen still didn't speak, the middle-aged man opened his mouth again and said temptingly: "Little brother Jian Chen, don't worry about the distribution of benefits, our Raging Flames Mercenary Group is only a small mercenary group that has just been established for a few years. , but the brothers in the regiment are all strong men, and the friendship between brothers is more important than money, once we gain something, no matter if you contribute or not, we will treat you badly."
