The Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group is considered a medium-sized mercenary group in the free city, although it has participated in some missions such as guarding caravans, encircling and suppressing bandits, and hunting powerful monsters. But compared to the strongest Split Tooth Ax Mercenary Group, which directly participated in large-scale wars between countries and killed monsters like Cyclops and Manticore, the Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group was still inferior in terms of qualifications.
Although the Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group also participated in the last hunt for the escaped elves, at that time not only the strongest Split Tooth Ax Mercenary Group but also the second-ranked Black Wolf Mercenary Group participated, like the Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group. Medium-sized mercenaries like this group basically only attack and sweep the battlefield. Most of the elves were captured by the two mercenary groups of Split Tooth Ax and Black Wolf. The Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group barely even had a chance to catch the elves, let alone catch them.
In terms of strength, the Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group is not weak, but since most of the members of the mercenary group come from warm areas in the south, after receiving the task of hunting down the escaped elves, they originally thought they were only operating within the Kingdom of Kalut, but they did not I thought that I could catch up to the Kingdom of Saxony in the far north in one breath. Due to insufficient preparation and lack of cold-warming clothing, and the fact that many mercenaries were born in warm areas in the south and were extremely unadapted to the climate of the cold zone, the entire mercenary group was completely a passerby during the operation.
In the mercenary garrison in Belika Town, many mercenaries are busy checking the salutes they carry. Once they enter the forest of mist, the fate of those who are not well prepared will be very miserable. In the mercenary world, which is already dominated by money, In this world, it is best not to expect friends to share materials with you for free. If you want to obtain the necessary life-saving materials, you will have to spend a lot of money.
"Has everyone prepared the cold weather supplies?"
Several captains of the mercenary regiments stationed in the camp were doing final inspections. After confirming that the supplies had been prepared, the captain immediately reported to the leader Garant: "Everything is ready, leader."
Garner nodded and rode on his beloved horse. Because of insufficient preparation last time, the reputation of the Eagle Mercenary Group plummeted in the Free City. Garner, the leader of the mercenary group, felt particularly embarrassed and hoped to have a chance to return to the city. Restore the reputation of the mercenary group. After a period of silence, Ganat received a good opportunity. There were rumors of elves appearing in the misty forest. Some slave merchants who had not obtained any 'sources' in the last operation immediately acted quickly like sharks smelling blood. After a long struggle with the Kingdom of Saxony, the slave merchants finally obtained a letter of guarantee and certification documents from the free city merchant Philibes and were able to enter the country.
This time, the big businessman Felibos seemed to have little interest in the elves in the Mist Forest and did not participate. Without Felibos as a big financial owner, these slave traders could not afford to hire top mercenary groups like the Split Tooth Battle Ax. , had no choice but to hire his own Soaring Eagle mercenary group first. Garant had already made up his mind to seize this opportunity to fight, especially after hearing that the slave merchants had hired the Black Wolf mercenary group because they were worried about insufficient manpower and combat power. Facing this other top mercenary group after the Cracked Tooth Axe, Garnat knew that if things couldn't be done before they arrived. Then the Soaring Eagle Mercenary Group will probably have to clean up the battlefield again.
"Okay! Let's all set off. We are scheduled to arrive at the outskirts of the Mist Forest before dark today. Everyone, please cheer up and don't fall behind."
Ganat immediately fixed his two-handed sword and roared, and the mercenaries suddenly burst into cheers. Although some strange rumors about the Mist Forest were heard in Belika Town, especially some scattered ones. Poachers and adventurers have lost their traces after entering the misty forest. In addition, the occasional returning adventurer calls out in horror that there are demons wearing armor in the forest, which makes this operation seem to have some unknowns. Danger. However, in the eyes of most mercenaries, this operation is still just a very simple task. Elves are not suitable to live in the extreme north. Even if it is possible, it is because of the wind and snow that the fleeing elves had to stay. Lonely in the forest.
Those scattered adventurers and poachers were probably killed by sneak attacks. But this time it was a large force operation with as many as 500 people. Even if there was the so-called armored demon, if more than 500 people swarmed up, even the Cyclops would definitely be destroyed, not to mention there were several noble magicians in the team. division.
No one thought that this operation would be too dangerous. In the eyes of many mercenaries, they only hoped to catch an elf and sell it to the slave traders who followed, or to enjoy their daily life before selling it. She is a beautiful elf who is called a man's gift by the dignitaries.
Although most people have some thoughts of underestimating the enemy, as a mercenary group, the Soaring Eagle mercenaries still arranged their marching team in a cautious manner, led by the scout cavalry in front. At the back was a large prison wagon ready to hold prisoners. The horses pulling the prison wagon were also replaced early in the morning with long-haired cotton boll sheep, a specialty livestock of the Kingdom of Saxony. The most important convoy carrying materials and supplies was tightly protected in the center of the team. Several archers who were good at observation were sitting on the car and looking around vigilantly.
After the mercenary group left, a soldier on duty on the city wall immediately gestured to his companion, who understood the meaning and ran away quickly. Ten minutes later, Prince Rost in Belika Fortress received the news that the mercenary group had set off, and half an hour later, the news was sent to the Frost Elf scouts through hidden channels.
Everything is under surveillance!
However, not long after the mercenary group left the town of Belika, four strangely dressed travelers came to the town.
A combination of one man and three women. One of them, a black-haired girl who seemed to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, looked arrogant and was obviously the leader of this team. The remaining three were all dressed as warriors, but the man had a tall figure like an iron tower and The terrifying aura of keeping strangers away made people feel intimidated, while the other two female warriors followed silently wearing hooded windbreakers.
They looked like a noble lady and escort who were traveling, but the reason why they looked strange was because the four of them were not wearing any warm clothes at all. Even men and women are wearing metal armor that is not suitable for the extreme north. If the tall and burly male warrior has enough physical strength to withstand the severe cold of nearly minus 30 degrees, then the beautiful noble at the head The girl doesn't look like a well-trained warrior. She is only wearing a luxurious black gauze skirt. You can even vaguely see her slender pair of white jade-like legs that make a man's blood swell from under the translucent skirt. Beautiful legs.
Although the gauze skirt looks like it is made of valuable high-quality materials and the elaborate design supports the girl's charm, but apart from being luxurious and beautiful, this gauze skirt has no ability to keep out the cold. This kind of dress really makes people wonder whether the girl in front of them will be frozen by the severe cold in the Far North
She wanted to think about it but no one caught up to remind the girl kindly. The tall male guard almost put an end to everyone's inappropriate thoughts. However, for many local residents and outside adventurers in Belika Town, the black-haired girl's dress is enough to satisfy the eyes. You must know that in this ghost place, even the most beautiful girl has to put herself aside when she goes out. Wrapped like a cotton bag. The cool dress of a girl like this is naturally eye-catching, not to mention that this girl also has a perfect charming appearance and sexy figure, especially the pair of tall and straight plump breasts on her chest. Some mature women feel inferior to themselves.
"Quietly, those big babies must feel good in your hands."
"Hey~ If I can have sex with this girl once, I'm willing to pay all the commission."
"Don't be stupid! You are just a toad trying to eat swan meat. Just look at her temperament and you know that this girl's identity must be something special. You are simply daydreaming."
"But it seems like she is not a native of the Kingdom of Saxony, right?"
Some of the surrounding townspeople and adventurers were talking a lot about the girl, and some of the mercenaries with some dirty thoughts were imagining how ecstatic they would be after carrying the girl to the bed. However, the girl turned a deaf ear and just kept talking to the guards on the side, and then entered the Snowfield House Hotel under the attention of everyone.
"Your Highness Celatia~ The room has been booked. You can have a good rest. We will set off early tomorrow morning. I believe we can reach the Yanold Mountains in two days." Black Dragon Guard Garrods walked over with the key. Celatia whispered in front of her.
"Okay~ It's really tiring to be on the road these days~"
Celatia stretched out contentedly, and the beautiful figure she revealed immediately made many men in the hotel lobby unable to take their eyes away. In order to save time after setting off from the Free City, Celatia and Garrods did not choose the slow airship (in the eyes of the black dragon) but directly restored their original appearance and flew to the Kingdom of Saxony. They traveled at high speed for several days. Even the black dragon felt quite tired from flying. Now that he finally arrived at the outskirts of the Mist Forest, Celatia decided to take a rest before getting up and heading to the Yanold Mountains.
After enjoying some delicious food, Celatia played with the spoon in her hand and asked, "Are the gifts ready? I don't want to upset the White Dragon King by just barging in like this."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, everything is ready." Garrods said with certainty.
In the etiquette of the dragon clan, when a dragon visits another dragon's territory, even if it is just passing by, he should prepare some gifts for the other party to prove that he is coming for peaceful purposes, otherwise it will be regarded as Fights broke out among enemies who came to compete for territory. Although the White Dragon King showed no interest in ordinary gold and silver treasures thousands of years ago, Celatia, who came on behalf of the Black Dragon Clan, did not dare to lose her etiquette.
After confirming that everything was correct, Celatia was about to return to her room to take a good rest when she suddenly heard some interesting news from the adventurer on the side. (To be continued...)
