Opal and Raymond came out wearing glasses. Raymond went to the IRC to receive his pay during the war. Opal was talking to a man.
"Sunlight City is good." Opal said, "Go to Sunlight City and attend recruit training... I'll take a look. No, no, I don't smoke."
Forget it, let's smoke some, Opal took the man's cigarette, took a puff, and coughed violently at the IRC door.
"Are you a mercenary like this?" The man smiled incredulously: "My name is Cullens. I've been discharged from the Republic Army, and I'm here to find an errand. Can you take care of it?"
"Hey! What are you doing to him?!" Raymond came out reluctantly.
Opal coughed and waved his hand, angrily said, "I'm still C+!"
Cullens said: "What rank is C+ similar to?"
"You'll find out later." Raymond said coldly, leaning on Opal's shoulders and leaving the tarmac, Cullens said, "Hey, wait!"
He carried a travel bag and smiled: "I don't mean to offend, may I ask..."
"Opal!" a mercenary shouted: "Where did you go?"
Opal greeted them with a smile, and another acquaintance came over and said, "The spanner is looking for you, and he has been promoted to an S-rank mercenary."
Opal chatted a few times with people, and stood in line outside the hall waiting for the bus. Raymond was still so cool, and he simply answered "yes", "no" or nods slightly before he spoke.
There was a commotion in the corner of the hall, and the police shouted: "Don't fight! Give me peace of mind!"
Opal asked the unknown mercenary, "What's going on?"
"There are more and more people coming to Lie Xing." The mercenary said helplessly: "Those who apply for political asylum, those who make a living, those who come to do business... Wang beat Cororin with his tail between his tail and fled. Run towards us."
Cullens, smoking a cigarette, stood behind and smiled.
"It also means that the star will be more prosperous in the future," Raymond said.
"That's what I said." The other team interjected: "But there are too many outsiders, and it will always cause a lot of trouble."
Opal said: "Don't say that. When I came here, the first person I met was Wrench. He told me that Lie Xing is very tolerant. I will regard this place as my hometown, right?"
He turned his head again, smiled at Cullens and said, "I hope you can settle in here smoothly."
"Thank you." Cullen nodded.
The car came, and the mercenaries got into the car one after another. The scenery on both sides of the road passed by. There were construction robots everywhere. 70%, it is almost impossible to see that they have experienced the baptism of war.
In this war, Lie Xing paid a painful price of 260,000 registered mercenaries. Azeroth proved a truth to the entire Covenant with blood and sacrifice - Cororin is not invincible, even if he is allied with Phantasm , with a powerful mecha that surpasses human technological knowledge and a super aircraft carrier comparable to the Republic.
All the odds he had were defeated before the god of war, Azeroth, and fled back to his domain with the few remaining battleships.
The Empire and the Republic began to put the annihilation of Cororin on the agenda, preparing to completely eliminate the dictatorship of Cororin in the near future.
The Mercenary Guild in Sunlight City has already opened. They are not in a hurry to pick up the task. They first strolled around the shopping street and went to the weapon equipment store to buy ear buckles. Raymond lost his long-handled axe and wanted to change his weapon. Ou Po was puzzled and asked, "Isn't the long-handled battle axe bad?"
"I want to... stand in front," Raymond said. "I'm going to switch to a combination of a shield and a one-handed sword, so that when we fight..."
"Don't be kidding!" Opal said with a frantic expression: "My great sword is a shield class, and you have also changed it to a defensive unit. How can two defensive units perform tasks? Besides, you can use a shield and a one-handed sword. Is it?"
Raymond said: "No, you can learn, why don't you use a gun and stand behind me?"
Opal said: "No, what a mess, you can't take my job!"
Raymond and Opal quarreled for a long time in the weapons store, and finally Raymond had to give in. He thought about it for a while and said, "I'll try this."
The boss said: "This is imported from the empire. It is called a mass-energy shock gun. It is suitable for slashing, stabbing and long-range shooting. It is very powerful. The ground troops of the Second Army are equipped with this."
"It's a bit like a mortar." Raymond said, "I'll try."
The impact gun was 1.3 meters long. One end of the gun was like the heavy axe that Raymond had used, with an electromagnetic cutting blade. Raymond weighed the handle of the gun, made a round, and carried the end of the axe with his elbow. Point the muzzle on the other end of the pistol towards the outside of the store and pull the trigger lightly.
Opal remembered the weapons on the Cororin dark mecha, which seemed to be similar to this, and of course their power could not be compared.
Raymond was very satisfied with this new weapon and said: "I want it. In the future, you just need to hide behind me, and the enemy can't rush to us..."
Opal sneered: "Yeah, who was caught by a group of mad scientists to do the experiment last time..."
Raymond said sternly: "I just hid my strength from you in the past, you don't believe me? To tell you the truth, I just..."
The two came out of the store noisily, and Raymond said, "To be honest, I have never dared to show my strength in front of you, for fear of arousing your suspicion..."
Opal: "This statement is too vulgar, can't you change your lines?"
Raymond: "You'll know soon enough, even S-rank mercenaries are not my opponents."
Opal said: "I didn't show my true strength. The teacher said that as long as the faith is strong enough, I can destroy the entire universe..."
Raymond: "… "
Opal took Raymond's declaration entirely as a joke.
Raymond said: "Go to pick up the quest, I'll let you see."
Opal sneered: "Look at what? I think you only look fierce when...that or something. Actually, you are a housework or sex service robot."
Raymond was greatly insulted and said angrily: "Let's see!"
Opal said: "You wait and see."
In Twilight City, the wrench went to the open-air cafe and sat down, heaving a sigh of relief: "I finally found you, three cups of original black coffee, no milk and sugar. I'll invite you today."
Opal and Raymond stared blankly at the wrench.
Wrench: "Where did you go?"
Opal: "When I treat guests, you order Sphinx ice cream coffee. When you treat guests, I can only drink original black coffee, and no sugar?"
Raymond: "Forget it, I'll treat you as a guest. You leave after drinking black coffee. Opal is so full of fire, I will have a hard time in the future..."
Wrench said, "Occasionally drinking a raw drink is good for your health... You two are finally in love?"
The corner of Opal's mouth twitched, the robot brought the coffee, and Raymond leaned lazily on the chair and said, "What? Do you have any experience to teach? For example, how do you usually coax your money-loving wife..."
Opal: "Let's change the subject, it's really stupid to come to you today."
Wrench said in his sleepwalking voice with no expression on his face: "Experience? Speaking of sex, it is a matter of skill. You can consider throwing away the fantasy paradise and try to use the primitive way, without any assistance and electrical stimulation, Experience the unrestrained love naked, after all, the stimulation of the machine can easily lead to burnout."
"Assuming there is no fantasy paradise, you have to work together to study how to stimulate each other's prostate, how to find the right body position and frequency, how to mobilize the whole body, and how to fully enjoy the pleasure, rather than waiting for fantasy paradise to pass orgasm through neurons. The exciting way is delivered to your door, it is better to find it yourself. Through these, lovers can seek the tacit understanding of body and mind... Of course, the premise is that your physical condition is sufficient. I think Raymond, you should have the capital to look down on others, and Opal may also be Yes, will it be slightly inferior to you... "
Opal: "What has Azeroth been saying lately?"
Wrench: "The king is very strong and must be in good condition, but I never inquire about his private life."
Raymond spit out a sip of coffee.
Opal: "I'm asking about the aftermath of the war! Please, let's end this topic."
Wrench: "This war has brought us a lot of losses. We lost three S-class mercenaries. Jamie died. Jimison wrote off his mercenary diary and left the strong star, saying that he would never come back. The same is true. There is also Haitang, because the dead Aurora Falcon is her younger brother."
Opal never expected that when the wrench opened, it was such a shocking news.
"What about the others?" Raymond asked.
"Grey Wolf cultivated in Rembrandt, fell in love with a historian by the way, and poor Rosen continued to be the fifth king. I thought Rosen and Grey Wolf would get married..." Wrench yawned and said dullly: " Urka also went to pursue his pirate princess."
"There is only one S mercenary left behind?" Raymond said.
Wrench raised his eyebrows and said, "I stay with Rosen, you can't say Rosen isn't human."
Opal laughed, and Raymond obviously forgot about the promotion of the Wrench. He was very embarrassed. After a moment of silence, the Wrench said again: "The number of registered mercenaries of Lie Xing has increased by 700 per day during this period. You see. , all of them are foreigners, the recruit school can't accept so many students, so they can only stay temporarily, and there are dozens of fights a day."
Opal: "… "
Raymond: "… "
"Dragon and snakes are mixed. The Empire and the Republic have sent a lot... It's not appropriate to say spies, but many recruits have political missions." Wrench said: "You understand."
Opal nodded thoughtfully. After the battle between Lie Xing and Cororin, the status of the Covenant was raised. This kind of penetration was taken for granted. Not everyone who came to be a mercenary had an adventurous spirit. It is estimated that the empire and the republic are two big The force's underground personnel have infiltrated. "
"I'm gone." Wrench said, "Thank you very much for saving me."
"You're welcome." Raymond nodded and said, "I wish you a long life, you always seem sleepy."
While paying the bill, Wrench said, "Recently, especially, the workload is so heavy that I can't even take orders. I can't sleep well. Lily even quarrels with me. It's really hard to be a man."
Opal looked at Wrench's eyes, looked at his dark circles, and suddenly thought that Wrench had been caught by Cororin for a while, wondering if there would be some mental sequelae, and asked: "You have often had strange dreams recently. ?"
Wrench was startled, then shook his head and said, "No, I rarely dream, and even if I do, most of them can't be remembered."
Opal said goodbye to the wrench, and after he left, Raymond said, "He doesn't think these two cups of coffee are a thank-you for saving his life."
"I think it's very possible." Opal couldn't help laughing and crying: "Hey! Some fresh milk and saintess flower candy! This gentleman will pay the bill!"
Raymond: "… "
In the afternoon, Opal and Raymond went to the civil office of the trade union in the City of Souls. The department that signed the marriage contract had not yet opened. The civil office only had a dilapidated temporary room and did not provide marriage registration services. .
Opal had to hang out with Raymond boredly, looking for their friends, Sid and Xun went out on a mission, and the AE captain was not there.
They stood at the Sunshine City branch for a while, and decided to go out for a commission.
The survey of the ancient ruins received last time has been automatically cancelled after the deadline, and a new round of commissions has been picked up by other mercenary groups. The clerk said to a mercenary group leader behind the window: "Be brave! Be brave! Lie Xing needs it. money!"
Raymond hugged Opal from behind, raised his head and said, "Going to Nuo Xing?"
The problem of female Luoxing seems to be more serious. Opal remembered that the last time he entrusted him was to help catch poachers. After a few cycles of magnetic storms, the rank of this mission was mentioned as B.
Pay 460,000 credit points to capture the leader of the poacher organization... Raymond murmured: "Six thousand three percent, go?"
Opal: "Four... Four hundred and sixty thousand credits?! Six thousand three hundred?! Are you kidding me?"
Raymond: "It's weird? We're a B-rank regiment now, and it takes 18 million points to level up."
Opal: "That's too much!"
Lie Xing's entrustment was evaluated by the union. Only then did Opal realize that fast-leveling mercenary groups like himself and Raymond were rare, and most of them advanced steadily and slowly.
The B-level regiment is usually regarded as a team of more than 20 people by default, and a commission of 400,000 to 500,000 to 800,000 yuan is paid for one time. Excluding fuel, consumables, food and accommodation, and spread it to the group members, each person is only 20,000 to 30,000.
Twenty people's remuneration is divided between two people, which is simply huge profits, but the most important thing is whether it can be completed.
Or can it be completed alive.
Raymond: "What do you think about going to Nuo Xing and having a honeymoon by the way?"
Opal: "Are you sure this is really a honeymoon? I think we might be facing an army. Anything else?"
Raymond: "Honey, I can handle an army of no more than a thousand men. You don't have to do anything, just leave it to me, I mean it."
Opal: "… "
"Then next." Opal said: "You'd better not leave alone, after catching a thousand people with bare hands, I will... I will... "
Raymond: "You just play fantasy paradise for three days and let me enjoy it by your side?"
The people around burst into laughter, Opal poked Raymond on the shoulder, Raymond took over the task and took him to the shopping street to prepare.
