Chapter 30: Mercenary Union

Kieg was startled, and lost his voice: "What?" The cardinal's daughter lost her body to him, and it was hard to think about not dying. He didn't have time to think about it, and immediately released an ice pick magic, and suddenly blasted at Dumb's body.

Just as Dumb was about to explain, a huge ice cone had come before him, and he couldn't dodge because Xuanyue was behind him. He gritted his teeth, burst out with anger, and slammed his fist on the ice cone.

With a bang, although the ice pick was blown apart, an icicle pierced Dumb's arm, and the bed was immediately stained red with blood.

"Great Mage Kig, listen to my explanation, I didn't do anything!"

After releasing the ice pick, Kieg regretted it. No matter how you look at it, Dumb doesn't look like that kind of person, let alone, looking at his stupid appearance, I don't know if he will do that kind of thing. Besides, the clothes on Xuanyue and Ah-Dai are very neat, and Xuanyue is still wrapped in the quilt,...

"What's going on here?" Keig asked, frowning.

Dumb sealed the blood in his arm, and said: "I don't know what's going on, she'll be beaten and killed when I get up early in the morning..." He quickly told what happened last night.

After listening to Ah-Dai's narration, Kieg finally breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the bed, and cursed at Ah-Dai: "You silly boy, don't you know whether a man and a woman can kiss each other? How can you sleep with a girl?" Xuanyue said softly: "Miss Xuanyue, Dumb is telling the truth, he probably didn't do anything, you see, his arm was pierced by my ice pick, so don't blame him."

Xuan Yue actually only had a vague understanding of the relationship between men and women, sobbing: "Really? But, but he sleeps with me, will I have children? I don't want to have children! If I sleep with him Just as silly, I... , I'm not alive anymore."

Xuanyue's words deeply hurt Dumb's heart, he thought, so in Xuanyue's eyes, he was just a stupid fool, yes! I am really stupid! Taking two steps back, Ah Dui stood aside, a layer of cold frost gradually appeared in his eyes.

After hearing Xuanyue's words, Keiger laughed and said: "How come, Miss Xuanyue, there will be no children if you don't do that kind of thing between men and women. Dumb is definitely not that kind of person, besides, your body is not also Is there any discomfort? Dumb, why don't you hurry up and apologize to Miss Xuanyue."

Dumb responded, walked to the bed, lowered his head, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, Miss Xuanyue, I am a countryman. I just entered the mainland and I don't understand anything. I have made you wronged. I promise, in the future I will never touch you again, I will only be your follower." After speaking, he took two steps back and stood back to the original place. The reason why he is still willing to stay is because he once swore an oath that he would not part with delicious steamed buns. As for the other, he felt that he owed the Cardinal a favor. Without the help of God's blessing, it would take some time for him to reach the fifth level of Life and Death.

Keeger didn't distinguish the difference in Dumb's attitude, turned around to comfort Xuanyue and said, "Miss Xuanyue, don't be angry, I think, Dumb will definitely not invade you again in the future."

Xuan Yue snorted, wiped the tears from her face, and said to Jiger: "My clothes were stained with blood yesterday, you can find another set for me, I want the same one, and I want it Wearing a magic robe, I will leave later."

Kieg wanted her to leave as soon as possible, so he hurriedly agreed, turned around and went out to find clothes.

Jig left, only Duan and Xuanyue were left in the room, the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, Xuanyue stopped crying, and Jiger left, she saw a big pool of blood on the bed, although Duan sealed the blood in his hand The meridian, but due to the large wound, a small amount of blood is still flowing. For some reason, she suddenly felt a sad feeling in her heart. She also knew that it was impossible for Dumb to do anything to her. The crying just now was mainly to vent her dissatisfaction. In the depths of her heart, she always felt that Duan was not on the same level as herself, and always had a feeling of superiority.

"Dumb, come here, let me heal you."

Dumb looked at his arm, the freezing feeling of the ice edge had disappeared, and the piercing pain continued to come. Jiger's attack was too sudden just now, and his body protection fighting spirit was too late to defend. Fortunately, no bones were injured, but the blood The loss still made him feel tired for a while.

"No need, I can do it myself." Duan tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes, bit one end with his teeth, and held the other end with his right hand, and quickly wrapped up his wound. The intense pain made the cloth on his forehead full of sweat.

Xuan Yue snorted, and said, "If you don't come and pull it down, do you think I'm willing to spend magic power to treat you?" Although she said so, her eyes never left Ah-Dai's wound.

Dumb said indifferently: "Yes! How can I trouble you with this little injury of mine." After finishing speaking, he grabbed the bag beside him and walked out.

Xuan Yue said: "Why are you going?"

Dumb opened the door and said, "I'll go wash and change clothes, so as not to stain your eyes." After finishing speaking, he closed the door and walked out.

As soon as Ah-Dai left, Xuan Yue was completely stunned. When Ah-Dai went to pick up the burden, she caught a glint of coldness from Ah-Dai's eyes. She didn't understand why Ah-Dai suddenly seemed to be a different person, and even his tone of voice was different. It's different, and there is still a silly look. Could it be that he did this because I didn't let him sleep with me? However, she is a girl, how can she be so close to him. Hmph, don't care about him, he is my follower anyway, as long as he follows me, no one cares what he thinks.

After a while, Ah-Dai returned to the room, his face seemed to be much paler, his injured left arm was hanging aside, and in his right hand was holding a tray with breakfast in it.

Putting the breakfast in front of Xuanyue, Duan said: "Miss Xuanyue, please have breakfast."

Xuan Yue glanced at him and said, "Don't you eat? Why are there so few."

Dumb shook his head and said, "I'm your attendant, how can I eat with you, I'll go out to eat. Call me if you need anything." After finishing speaking, he turned and walked out again.

After leaving the room, Dumb let out a long breath. He felt very sad, smiled at himself, and murmured: "Yeah! I was born as a thief, and I am a lady of the Holy See. How can I think highly of me. One year, one year? Teacher Corris, it will be another year before I can go back to see you."

"What's the matter, Dumb, you seem very unhappy!" Kieg's voice came.

Dumb looked up at Kieg, and the old magician had a faint smile on his face. "I'm fine? Thank you for your concern."

Kieg sighed, and said, "Son, I was so impulsive just now, and I caused you such a serious injury. Come on, let me heal you with water-based healing techniques. The wound is so big. If you don't treat it properly, it will hurt you." There are sequelae."

Dui nodded lightly. He still respects Kieg very much.

Under Jiger's treatment, Ah-Dai's left arm can already be moved, and his complexion has improved a lot after breakfast.

"Young man, you have to be careful when you follow that little ancestor in the future. Her backstage is really too big. Neither you nor I can afford to offend you. Your life is hard."

Dumb lowered his head and said nothing.

Jiger said: "Try to keep a little distance from her, don't get too close to her." Jiger suddenly became serious, and said: "Especially, don't fall in love with her, otherwise, you will suffer for the rest of your life, between you There is an insurmountable gap!"

Dumb smiled at himself, and said, "Great Mage Kig, you are worrying too much. How could something happen to me and Miss Xuanyue? We are people from two worlds."

"Don't underestimate yourself too much. At your age, it is not easy to achieve such achievements. Okay, you rest for a while, and I will send her what the little witch wants. By the way, your clothes are too. It’s all dirty, I’ve also prepared a new magician’s robe for you, you can change into it.”

Putting on a new magician's robe, Ah-Dai stretched his body. Although the injury on his arm healed a lot, the pain still came. Last night, he also slept very comfortably. His impression of Xuan Yue had changed a lot, but after the disturbance in the morning, Dumb's heart was already cold, and he was completely cold, and he would never open up easily.

Touching the Pluto sword on his chest, Dumb's heart moved, and the genuine energy had reached the fifth level, so that said, I can start practicing the first form of the Mingzi Jiujue. Thinking of the Pluto swordsmanship, Duan's heart couldn't help but tremble. The powerful power had already been deeply imprinted in his mind. Similarly, the feeling of evil was always lingering. After all, the Pluto sword is the most evil sword. things! He didn't want to kill innocent people. Owen's words before he died kept impacting Ah-Dai's mind, "If you use it for good, you will do good, and if you use it for evil, you will do evil." As soon as he gritted his teeth, Ah-Dai has decided to follow Owen's instructions and find an opportunity to start practicing meditation. Word nine decisions.

At this moment, Kieg and Xuanyue came out at the same time. Xuanyue put on brand new clothes, her long blue hair was still braided into two small braids, and she looked much better in spirit, but her eyes were slightly blurred because of crying just now. A little red and swollen, Ah-Dai stood up, and said to Xuanyue: "Miss, you are up."

Xuan Yue frowned, and said, "Didn't I tell you to call me Yueyue? Do you want me to call you dumbfounded?"

Duan said indifferently: "I am your follower now, no matter what you call me, I should be."

Feeling the awkward atmosphere, Kieg coughed and said, "Miss Xuanyue, where are you going?"

Xuan Yue rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily, "You want me to leave quickly, don't you, hum! I will come back in the future, Dumb, let's go." After finishing speaking, she walked towards the gate of the Magicians Union.

Hearing that Xuan Yue was coming back, Kieg almost collapsed to the ground, shook his head helplessly, and winked at Dumb.

Duan bowed to Kieg, and followed Xuan Yue to leave the Magician's Guild.

As soon as she went out, Xuan Yue went straight to the mercenary union without hesitation. Duan lowered his head, and under the cover of the big fiery red cloak, he couldn't see his face at all.

The mercenary union is still as lively as yesterday, and the noisy conversations continue to come. The arrival of Xuanyue and Duan immediately attracted the attention of most people, especially the golden badge on Xuanyue's chest, which is an advanced magic The mark of the teacher! Among the mercenaries, magicians are the most lacking. If a magician joins a mercenary group, it will definitely bring huge benefits to the mercenary group. Just imagine how wonderful it would be when the warriors charged in front and the magicians behind cast magical cover and healing. Before Duan came to the mercenary union, he deliberately stored his Tiangang sword in the magician union, lest Feng Ping would recognize it.

"My lord magician, do you want to join the mercenary group? Our Tianfeng mercenary group is very strong. If you join, it will be even more powerful. Would you consider it?"

"Master Mage, don't listen to his nonsense, you should join our iron war mercenary group, we can definitely guarantee your safety. Even if we encounter danger, we will definitely defend you with our lives."

"Master Mage, there are many beauties in our dragon and phoenix mercenary group, please join us."

The almost famous mercenary group was surrounded by people, and for a while, there was an endless stream of invitations, surrounding Xuanyue and Duan in the center.

Xuanyue didn't expect that she would be so popular, and she couldn't help but secretly proud of herself, but her purpose was not to join the mercenary group, she said loudly: "Don't make noise, don't make noise, I didn't come to join the mercenary group, please let me go!" Come on, I want to set up a mercenary group myself."

The representatives of the mercenary groups were dumbfounded. The magician set up a mercenary group alone? What concept would that be? And listening to the voice, this senior magician seems to be a woman, and she is not very old.

Taking advantage of everyone's stunned time, Xuan Yue turned her head and said to Dumb: "Quick, you open the way ahead, let's go to the counter inside."

Duan responded, restrained his fighting spirit, gently pushed away the people blocking the way, and led Xuan Yue to the innermost part of the union.

The lobby of the Mercenary Union is very spacious and can accommodate hundreds of people. In the innermost part of the lobby, there are three counters, namely the registration counter, task collection counter and bonus counter. Passing through the crowd, Xuan Yue dragged Ah-Dai to the registration counter and shouted to the staff inside, "I want to register for the Mercenary Corps."

A young girl stood behind the registration counter. She looked at the senior magician badge on Xuanyue's chest in surprise, and said politely: "Miss, are you sure?" She has also worked here for several years, and has never I heard that magicians want to register as a mercenary group. Given the status of magicians on the mainland, they don't have to run around for a living. Although mercenaries are a profitable profession, they are relatively dangerous. According to her, there are only a few magicians in the Red Hurricane Mercenary Group, not to mention magicians in ordinary small mercenary groups, there are very few who understand the meaning of magic.

Xuan Yue said impatiently: "Of course I'm sure, hurry up, don't you see so many flies surrounding us?"

The young girl pursed her lips and smiled, looked at the silent dumb beside Xuanyue, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, how many members are there in your mercenary group, and what are the names of the head and deputy head?"

Xuanyue said without thinking: "There are two members of the mercenary group, the leader Xuanyue is Miss Ben, and the deputy head is him, called Ah-Dai." As she spoke, she pointed to Ah-Dai's tall body.

"Dumb?" The young girl was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't say anything, and quickly wrote down with a pen. At this time, those mercenaries had already reacted, and surrounded them from behind again, wanting to make a final effort. Xuan Yue snorted and chanted a few incantations in a low voice, a light bullet suddenly appeared on the magic wand, and under the radiance, the sacred energy protected her and Dui's bodies inside, "If anyone bothers me again, Don’t blame my magic for being rude.” What she used was just an ordinary lighting technique of the light system, but with the addition of her own sacred aura, the lighting technique will produce certain energy fluctuations, which have the effect of exorcising evil, and can deal with evil spirits. Some very low-level creatures with dark attributes will only have that little effect. On the surface, it looks powerful, but in fact it has no attack power at all. For those who don't know magic, intimidation is enough.

The strong sacred aura immediately frightened all the mercenaries back a few steps, except for a few highly skilled mercenaries, everyone else stepped aside in embarrassment and went to their own affairs.

The young girl said: "May I ask what is your profession and specialty?"

Xuan Yue said: "Of course I am a magician. I am good at light magic, and he is good at fire magic. Is it so troublesome to register?"

The young girl smiled slightly and said: "Registration is really troublesome, because we have to remember clearly! Miss Magician, are you sure that your mercenary group only has two people? This is the smallest mercenary group I have ever seen. I think you should recruit a few fighters so that the mercenary group will be even stronger."

Xuan Yue glanced at Ah-Dai, shook her head and said, "No need, the two of us are enough. If there is anything else that needs to be registered, hurry up."

The young girl smiled and said: "There is one last item, please give your mercenary group a name."

Xuan Yue was taken aback, "Name it?" She hadn't thought about this question until now. When she got up in the morning, she was sulking with Dumb all the time. She just wanted to play with a mercenary group, and didn't think too much about it. name? What's the name? She turned her head and said to Ah-Dai: "Dai-Dai, what do you think our mercenary group is called?"

Dumb shook his head, and said, "I'm too stupid, just name the lady." After coming here, he has been looking for Feng Ping and the members of the Red Lion Mercenary Corps he belongs to, but he didn't see any scars on his chest. The mercenary with the lion's head logo couldn't help but feel a lot more settled. It turned out that after Feng Ping left, the members of the Red Lion Mercenary Corps had already taken on new missions to carry out. Even if they were there, it would be difficult to recognize Dumb who had completely changed his attire.

Xuan Yue snorted dissatisfiedly, and said to the young girl: "Then let's call it the Angel Mercenary Group, it sounds nice."

The young girl lowered her head to check, and said, "I'm sorry, miss, this name is already called by the mercenary group, please change it."

Xuan Yue was stunned, snorted, and said angrily: "I even have the same name, I'm so mad. It's all your fault, you made me angry early in the morning. You see, everything is not going well." Xuan Yue vented all her anger on Ah-Dai, and punched Ah-Dai's arm. Unfortunately, it happened to hit Ah-Dai's wound.

Ah-Dai trembled all over his body, and the intense pain made him groan involuntarily. Xuan Yue was startled, and then realized that Ah-Dai had an injury on his arm. She glanced at Ah-Dai who was trembling slightly, and said to the young girl: "Then Let's call it the Heavenly Evil Mercenary Group, which means angels and demons." Turning his head and glaring at Dumb, he said, "It's been cold all day, and the title of devil is the most suitable for you."

Dumb gritted his teeth and resisted the pain in his arm, thinking to himself, he doesn't know who is the devil.

The young girl smiled and said: "Miss Magician, please wait for a while, I will make the corresponding mercenary cards for you, and I will be back soon. You can go to the task collection counter to look at the tasks first."

With a promise, Xuan Yue dragged Ah-Dai aside and looked at the huge blackboard behind the task collection counter.

At this moment, a voice sounded from behind them, "Miss Magician, I wonder if we can talk." A middle-aged man in red leather armor appeared behind them, his long fiery red hair combed very tightly. Neat, with a broad sword on his back, although it is not as big as Duan's Tiangang sword, it can be regarded as an epee.

Xuan Yue's beautiful eyes turned around, she looked him up and down, and said, "Talk? Is there anything to talk about."

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, pointed to the red tornado logo engraved on his chest, and said: "This is the captain of the first warrior brigade of the Red Hurricane Mercenary Group. On behalf of our head, I would like to invite two magicians to join our mercenary group." The magician group, the treatment will be favorable."

Xuan Yue and Ah-Dai were taken aback at the same time. Even though they were ignorant, they knew the prestige of the Red Hurricane Mercenary Group. It was a large mercenary group with tens of thousands of people, and the number one mercenary group in the mainland. Its strength is simply unmatched by other mercenary regiments. The appearance of the middle-aged people also made the other small mercenary groups retreat to the side. The Red Hurricane Mercenary Group, but no one is willing to offend. Its influence in the mercenary world is equivalent to that of the Holy See on the entire continent. .

Xuan Yue didn't care how powerful your mercenary group was, and said coldly: "Didn't you see that we just registered a mercenary group?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "This is easy to handle. There are two ways to solve it. One is that you immediately withdraw from the mercenary group. Second, our Red Hurricane mercenary group can recruit you, and the price is favorable."

Seeing the rich and powerful appearance of the middle-aged man, Xuan Yue felt very dissatisfied, snorted, and said, "We won't join your mercenary group, don't bother us. Talk to the magician about money, are you okay?" ? If we want money, will we come to be mercenaries?"

The middle-aged man was taken aback, and asked, "What are those two mercenaries for?"

There was a smug smile on Xuan Yueqiao's face, and she said: "We are mercenaries to experience the fun of adventure. Fortunately, you are a member of the number one mercenary regiment in the mainland, don't you even understand this truth?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, and said: "This will be easier to handle. There are many very difficult tasks on the mainland, which cannot be completed by one person or a few people. The risk is very high. If our Red Hurricane mercenaries With the support of the regiment, you can do those difficult tasks, wouldn't you be able to better understand the true meaning of adventure?"

After hearing what he said, Xuan Yue's heart moved slightly, but she changed her mind and gave up the idea of joining. If her father knew that she had joined the mercenary group, she didn't know what she would think. Although he loved herself very much, it would embarrass the Holy See Let him know, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the fate of being locked up. It's different to establish a mercenary group by yourself, so my father shouldn't blame me too much. Thinking of this, Xuan Yue shook her head and said, "We still like to take risks alone, sorry."

Duan didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. He had already decided in the morning that he would follow Xuanyue to have less contact with her in the future, so as not to let her stab him again. He just hoped that this year would pass quickly.

"Miss Magician, your cards are ready." It turned out that the young girl came back, holding two white magic cards in her hand.

Xuan Yue ignored the middle-aged man, walked to the registration counter with Dumb, took the card, and said, "What's the use of this?"

The young girl explained: "Because you are the leader of the Heavenly Evil Mercenary Group, your card contains the information of the Mercenary Group and your own information, your level of the Mercenary Group is now the lowest level four, and the level will change with each other. The difficulty and number of tasks you complete continue to increase. Since you are a magician, we have set three levels for your mercenary level, and the level increases with the difficulty and number of tasks you complete. This magician's card is similar to yours. You must keep the card well, if you lose it, please come to the union as soon as possible to replace it. Please show the card when you accept the task. Also, these two are the badges of the third-level mercenary, here you are."

Xuan Yue took the badge made of Liangmei copper, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why am I a third-level mercenary? It's really too low."

"It is very difficult to increase the level of mercenaries. The higher you go, the harder it is to increase. If you upgrade by completing ordinary tasks, it may take a year to upgrade from level four to level three. The mercenary union has already given you a magician. You have a great discount. Like me, I have worked as a mercenary for twenty years, and I am only a first-level mercenary." The one who spoke was the captain of the Red Hurricane Mercenary Group's First Warrior Brigade, Carrie.

Xuan Yue glanced at him and said, "Why don't you leave, I told you, we won't join your mercenary group."

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said: "Business is not a matter of benevolence and righteousness. If you need any help in the future, just come to me. If there is a difficult task that requires cooperation, we will be happy."

cooperate? This is a good idea, Xuan Yue's tone softened a bit, and said: "Okay then, may I ask uncle, what's your name?"

The middle-aged man touched his face, which was not considered rough, and said awkwardly: "I am so old? You should call me big brother, my name is Karui."

Xuan Yue giggled and said, "Compared to us, of course you are old. Uncle Carui, if there are tasks that require cooperation in the future, we will definitely find you. Alright, we are going to take the task." , pulled Dumb's sleeve and ran to the task collection counter, eagerly looking at the task blackboard behind. They were interrupted by the middle-aged man just now before they had time to watch, so they only took a closer look this time.

The blackboard is divided into four parts. The bottom one is for ordinary tasks, which are nothing more than escorting business travelers or escorting items, and the rewards are relatively low. On the upper level, there are secondary tasks written. The tasks are all kinds of strange things, and the difficulty is correspondingly higher. Looking up, it is a first-level mission, which is more difficult. Most of them are looking for some rare items. One of the missions to find the Nine Dragons is as high as 10,000 gold coins. The top layer is a special mission, and there is only one mission in it. The description of this mission is: In the place where the Tianyuan clan and the Huasheng Empire are handed over, there is the Death Mountain. In the cave on the edge of the mountain, there is a legend that there is a high-purity magic crystal. Request, get the best magic crystal and bring it back. Task reward: It depends on the quality and attributes of the magic crystal, and the guarantee is 10,000 amethyst coins.

Dumb knows about the magic crystal. It was said in Corlis’s notes that the magic crystal contains different magic elements according to its attributes. A container for storing magic power, very precious, is the best material for making magic supplies. Although the magic items made of top-quality magic crystals are not comparable to artifacts, they can greatly enhance the strength of a magician. With its addition, magic can even be upgraded by a level. There are a few magic crystals among the materials in Corliss' collection, but they are just ordinary. This task couldn't help but move Dumb's heart. He didn't think it was for money. He thought, if he could get a top-quality magic crystal and give it to Teacher Corris, the teacher would be very happy.

Xuan Yue also saw this task, and murmured: "It turns out that the best magic crystal is so valuable!"

Karui poked his head over and said: "Of course the top-quality magic crystals are valuable. Magic crystals are already very rare on the mainland. A magic wand made of ordinary magic crystals can be worth tens of thousands of gold coins, and the top-quality magic crystals are among the treasures. The treasures are almost rare, and the value of the magic items made with it is difficult to estimate. This task has been done a long time ago, and it is said that it was issued by a master-level alchemist. But until now, Still no one has done it."

Xuan Yue said: "The reward for the task is so high, so why don't you Red Hurricane Mercenary Group complete it? Aren't you the number one mercenary group in the mainland? Don't you need money?"

Karui smiled wryly and said: "Why not? It takes a huge amount of money to operate a large mercenary regiment with tens of thousands of people. However, this task is a bit too difficult and dangerous. Our regiment leader In order to ensure everyone's safety, we are strictly prohibited from touching this task."

Xuan Yue asked suspiciously: "Is it so hard to find magic crystals? There are so many people in your Red Hurricane Mercenary Corps, so a carpet search will do. Ten thousand amethyst coins is not a small amount."

Carey sighed, and said: "The main problem is not difficult to find, but dangerous. Haven't you seen the origin of the best magic crystal? That's the Death Mountain!"

This time even Dumb's interest was brought up, and he asked for the first time after entering the mercenary union: "Is the Death Mountain dangerous?"
