Become a martial girl

Chapter 24 Mercenary Missions
Seeing the surprised look in the young man's eyes, Mengdie slammed the table and moved her head forward: "Do you have any opinions? See?!"

A faint fragrance emanated from Mengdie's hair, and the pretty face that was so close at hand made the young man's heart beat faster unexpectedly.He quickly lowered his head, but still calculated based on 16 years, and wrote Mengdie's birth year in the age column.

The following things, Mengdie said while the young man wrote.But most of the time it's just a stroke.Because Mengdie is too lazy to explain her life experience, many places are summarized with amnesia.After finishing a registration form, only name and age were written on it.As for the column of gender, Mengdie insisted on filling in "male". The young man agreed, and finally after thinking about it, he wrote "female" on it.

The simple check-in process is over.The young man took a look at the registration form, which contained almost nothing, and then called a mage.The magician took out a small crystal-like stone and held it up to Mengdie.After letting the light on the stone shine on Mengdie's face for a while, the magician pointed the crystal stone at a spot on the registration form that looked like a headshot and took two shots.Mengdie's head gradually emerged from the paper, clearer than those captured by high-level cameras on the earth.

"The registration procedure has been completed. According to the regulations, Mengdie Xiao...Mengdie, I want to inform you of your current identity and mission." The young man stuffed the registration form into his arms, and did not share the form with other mercenaries. Classify and place in the same way.Naturally, Mengdie was not clear about his actions.

"My name is Edward. Edward Rancid Moore. I am the leader of this crusade."

Mengdie was confused when she heard it, she raised her head, trying to recite the name of the young man in front of her.But "Edward" can barely be said, but the long surname behind it is extremely awkward to pronounce.She shook her head impatiently and said, "Edward, right? You are my leader, I know. What else?"

As soon as Mengdie said this, the people around showed surprise again!Even Edward himself couldn't believe that this girl was so calm after hearing her surname!Instead, he showed an expression of indifference to himself? !

"Do you... know who I am?" Edward pointed to his nose and asked again in disbelief.

Heh, just now I have a little affection for you, so I have to push forward, right?Who are you and what does it matter to me?I don't know if your family is well off or how great you've done, it doesn't matter to me!
Mengdie snorted, with a gloomy face: "I don't know. I don't really want to know. Although I follow your leadership for Sura's sake, if you want to use your name to suppress me, hehe ! That clerk is your role model!"

"It seems that this girl really doesn't know who Edward is?" Everyone thought so.At this moment, the conclusion that this little girl may be very confused has been deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone.Anyone with a little common sense probably knows who this person is.Even if he had never met him before, the silver moon badge on that sword already represented his identity!Even in this situation, I still don't know... It seems that this girl is not only confused, but also very confused!

The corner of Edward's mouth twitched, looking very embarrassed.He looked at Mengdie's serious eyes, as if he was not joking.He thought for a while, but smiled easily: "Ah, it's okay if you don't know, it's okay. Just think of me as a leader first. Okay, let me continue."

"I'm Edward, the leader of this crusade. And Mengdie, you are one of the mercenaries registered under me. Our mission is to go to the Prince's Ball, which is three days away from here, before the start of the Prince's Ball in a month. Bloody Valley, wipe out a bandit organization we call Black Flame Snake."

"Our official army has a total of 1000 people, which is an absolute advantage compared to the bandits' 300 people. But the Bloody Valley is very large, and it is very difficult to find 300 people in this valley. Escape. Therefore, the task of your mercenaries is to use your mobile power to investigate before the arrival of the army, and then collect the correct orientation, various places suitable for ambush, and the possible escape routes of the enemy. Ensure that our suppression There's nothing wrong with banditry. It's a dangerous job, and it's likely to require you to scout deep into enemy positions. How about it? Do you understand?"

Mengdie nodded, folded her arms and smiled slightly: "Simply speaking, they are scouts, right? I understand. So how many scouts are there?"

"Including you, a total of 67 people have been registered. You caught up with the last class, because in another hour, when the sun rises completely, it will be time for the mercenary group to leave. The large group will leave a day later. At that time, I will lead you to fight this vanguard battle."

After Edward finished speaking, Mengdie just nodded casually.But suddenly, the mercenaries behind burst into a burst of surprise!Mengdie turned around strangely, and saw that everyone was looking at Edward, apparently in absolute disbelief at what he just said!
"Young...young master! You...you really want to lead the mercenaries?! Although this is the suggestion of the chief executive, there is really no need for you to take such a risk!" Uncle Du was also taken aback and hurriedly stopped him.

Edward shook his head and held the hilt of his sword: "Actually, the manager is right. I have too little actual combat experience, and my prestige is not enough. Let me solve the banditry battle at the Prince's Ball by myself. I can't let Those who trust me feel that they are just being used by the army. Or we have a simple relationship of money and employment with them. We are comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms who live and die together."

After finishing speaking, Edward pulled out his sword, looked at the blade gleaming in the rising sun, and gave the first order for the march——

"Mercenary group, let's go!"

The mercenary group with only 67 members can be said to be lightly packed.The speed at which a horse can travel fast is indeed qualified for investigation.It wasn't until after the mercenary group was dispatched that Mengdie noticed that it wasn't just men.There are also many female mercenaries among them.

The continuous prancing horse galloped, and sat on the horseback and ate the dry food distributed at lunch.From time to time, Edward would take out a compass and pocket watch, and discuss the direction of progress with a few soldiers accompanying him.Mengdie saw these things in her eyes, but she didn't take them to heart at all.
