Scroll of Witchcraft

Chapter 8 Mike City

On the eighth day after leaving the academy, some figures gradually appeared on Li Wei's road.

First came the caravan formed by merchants and mercenaries, then went to the villages where farmers lived, and finally a city appeared before Li Wei's eyes.

This is one of the border cities of the Big Kingdom, Mike City.

"The entry fee for one copper."

The guards in worn leather armor stood guard at the door and said after seeing Li Wei's figure.

Compared with other passers-by, Li Wei stands out from the crowd, and his gray robe is very conspicuous.

The horse behind Li Wei is also of good breed. It is said that it has been transformed by a wizard, and it looks taller and mightier than the BMW of the lord.

The existence of wizards in this world is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and Li Wei's decorations make people think about it.

"Is that enough?"

Levi threw out a copper coin.

After taking Li Wei's copper plate, the guard nodded.

Although the Coral Coast has a vast territory, it is generally under the rule of wizards, and the currencies of various countries have also been unified early.

In addition to magic stones, each wizard will still carry some of the three currencies of gold, silver and copper with an exchange rate of one to one hundred.

"Please come in."

After finding an inn to settle his horses, Li Wei called a waiter.

"I need some staff, do you know where I can hire them?"

The waiter stared at the five silver coins on Li Wei's table, and couldn't help swallowing.

"My lord, the employment market in the west is a very good choice for you. If you have other needs, you can also choose the slave market in the north."

Li Wei nodded, smiled and said, "Take me there tomorrow, these five silver coins are yours."

"I am willing to serve you."

Early the next morning, Li Wei went to the employment market in Mike City under the leadership of the waiter.

It is said to be a market, but it is actually a large open space, where coachmen and mercenaries squat together in twos and threes, waiting for employers to hire them.

Before Li Wei entered the market, a large number of brokers surrounded him.

The handsome, gentle, and elegant Li Wei was wearing a gray robe, and he looked no ordinary person.

"My young lord, is there anything I can do for you?"

Looking at the enthusiastic shoulder passengers, Li Wei made his own request: "I need about 20 guards, two guides, to escort me to the city of Lensa."

"In terms of strength, the requirements are not very high, the key is to have a good reputation."

A strong man stood out from the crowd of shoulder-passengers, and he showed a flattering smile: "I have a more suitable candidate here."

He introduced: "The Eagle of the Wilderness is one of the most famous mercenary groups in Mike City. It is known for its strict discipline and its reputation is absolutely guaranteed."

When the strong man mentioned the Eagle of the Wilderness, the people around fell silent, and Li Wei could observe the convincing look in their eyes. It seemed that the Eagle of the Wilderness did enjoy a good reputation here.

"Take me to have a look. If I am satisfied, the introduction fee will not be small."

With that said, Li Wei sent him away with the five silver coins he promised the waiter.

"Please follow me!" Seeing this scene, the strong man's eyes lit up, and he led Li Wei out of the market.

The destination was a tavern, and it was still in the morning, and there was only a tall blond man sitting in it watching the shop.

"Dear Wright, I have business for you."

"This is Lord Mavi from the Canary Kingdom. He wants to hire you Wilderness Eagles to go to Lensa City."

The strong man named Wright looked at Li Wei's attire and assessed the risk of this mission.

Li Wei said with a smile: "I just hope that my journey will not be disturbed by some trivial matters, and you don't have to worry about any trouble."

During the past few days on the road, Li Wei encountered many bandits and robbers. Although he could solve them by reciting a spell, the frequency of occurrence was too high, which was really annoying.

Li Wei was very satisfied with the Wright in front of him. Judging from the vitality on his body and the calluses on his hands, he should be a quite experienced squire knight.

The chip also gave a confirmation reply after scanning.

Knights are another extraordinary path in this world besides wizards, but compared with wizards, the upper limit of the path is not high. Currently, there are only three levels: servant knights, formal knights, and great knights. Among them, only the great knights have Threatening the strength of the first-class wizard apprentices.

With the attendant knights sitting in the town, and supplemented by ten or twenty manpower, it is enough to clean up those bandits and robbers.

"It will take about ten days to get to the city of Lensa. We, Wilderness Eagle, have traveled this road many times. There is absolutely no problem with normal escort missions..."

Wright is still struggling, and Li Wei's identity makes him a little afraid to act rashly.

Solo travelers in such attire are often troublemakers, and steady mercenaries will actively avoid employers like Li Wei.

"In terms of remuneration, I am willing to give one gold coin per day to the servant knight, and ten silver coins per day for the others."

"I won't be staying in Lensa City for long. If the performance of the Wilderness Eagle satisfies me, I still have plans to go to Aegean City and hire you."

Hearing the price Li Wei offered, Wright licked his lips.

He gave too much!

On weekdays, Wright's monthly income fluctuates around one gold coin.

Even so, Wright did not lose his mind and directly agreed, making Li Wei nodded involuntarily.

"I have seen the sincerity of your lord, but I cannot decide on this escort mission alone. Can you wait here for a while, and I will give you an answer at noon."

After finishing speaking, Wright bowed and saluted, and said apologetically.

"No problem, waiting for your good news."

After speaking, Li Wei threw a gold coin to the strong man who led the way.

"this is yours."

The strong man quickly bent down to thank him.

Wright didn't make Levi wait long. Before noon, a group of people had already gathered at the entrance of the bar.

These people are dressed in different clothes, some are wearing worn leather armor, some are just simple hunter clothes, which look much simpler.

But on the whole, the problem is not big, at least in terms of physique, it is still very oppressive.

It is definitely no problem to deal with the bandits and robbers running around in the mountains and forests.

On the second day, it was still early in the morning.

The morning mist is wrapped in a chill, leaving a little wind and frost in the woods.

As soon as the closed gate of Mike City was opened, a carriage team came out of it.

More than 20 strong men in mercenary attire surrounded a tall carriage and slowly walked out of Mike City.

In front of the carriage, Wright was riding a maroon horse, wearing shiny armor, which looked very impressive from the appearance, quite chivalrous.

In this way, some mountain thieves with crooked minds may retreat in spite of difficulties.
