In the early morning, a ray of light shone into the room from the narrow windowsill. Hood sat up and shook his dizzy head, put on his clothes and walked out of the room.

Feeling like his head was like a lead ball, Hood secretly cursed Nott, Monkron and others in his heart. He didn't sleep well last night. The panting and screaming next door continued until midnight.

"Head..."

In the corridor, two yawning robbers leaned against the wall and were drowsy. After hearing the sound of the door opening, they immediately pulled themselves up and walked forward.

"Where are Nott and the others..."

Hood glared at the two robbers fiercely and asked with dissatisfaction.

"Hey, they haven't woken up yet..." One of the robbers blushed, and seemed to know that they had gone too far last night, and there was obvious embarrassment in his tone.

TMD...

Hood cursed in his heart and took the two robbers down to the first floor.

Compared to the noisy hall yesterday, the tavern was now empty, with only a bartender cleaning up the mess left by yesterday's guests.

Old Charlie was at the bar, not knowing what he was doing. When he heard the noise coming from the stairs, he immediately looked up and said, "Good morning, guest."

"Good morning, boss..." Hood responded listlessly, and then took the two robbers to find a cleaned table.

"Give us three some breakfast." Hood waved to the bartender and handed him three bronze sheep.

"Okay, please wait." The bartender took the bronze sheep and turned to the kitchen.

Hood rubbed his temples and looked at the alley outside the tavern through the small wooden window.

Although it was still early, residents could be seen outside the alley holding bamboo baskets and selling bread and fruit to early risers.

From time to time, mercenaries with daggers and worn leather armor walked out of other taverns and staggered back to their residences.

"Guests, your breakfast."

At this time, the bartender came over with a wooden tray and placed three bowls of steaming oatmeal porridge on the long table. At the same time, he gave each of Hood and the other two a wooden spoon.

"Please enjoy..."

After the bartender put the wooden tray under his arm and left, Hood picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful.

The freshly cooked oatmeal porridge still exuded the unique fragrance of wheat. After a mouthful of it, Hood was immediately saved from his drowsy state.

While eating, Hood opened the system in his mind. The system prompt sound rang in his mind twice last night, but he had no time to check it.

[Morale +10]

[Morale +15]

Looking at these two messages, Hood thought about it and knew the answer. The increase in morale must be related to yesterday's drinking and the girl.

In the game, in order to improve the morale of the soldiers in the team, in addition to giving them money and sleeping, drinking and having fun can also improve it.

Morale is also very important in the game. It is related to the direct combat effectiveness of the soldiers. If the morale of the soldiers is insufficient, their combat effectiveness will be reduced.

After shutting down the system and finishing the oatmeal porridge in two mouthfuls, Hood wiped his mouth and stood up and walked to the bar.

"Guest, do you need anything?"

Old Charlie, who was tidying up his things, looked up and saw Hood, and quickly put down his work with a smile on his face.

"Boss, do you know where we need manpower?" Hood put two copper sheep on the wooden bar and asked softly.

Seeing the copper sheep on the bar, Old Charlie took them in his hands as soon as possible, and the smile on his face became more attentive.

He looked at the two robbers behind Hood, and then whispered: "Guest, this is your first time in Rhine Town."

Hood nodded.

"Sure enough, I guessed it right. My eyes can recognize all the residents in the town, but this is the first time I have seen you, the guests..." Old Charlie boasted about his skills to himself.

"Wait... Boss..." Hod knocked on the bar counter and said dissatisfiedly: "I'm asking you about the job, not listening to you say how great you are."

Old Charlie's face flashed a trace of embarrassment, and then he said to Hod seriously: "Guest, I think you should be mercenaries. A famous businessman in the town is recruiting mercenaries. Maybe you can try your luck there."

Hod had heard this news from the mercenaries yesterday. He did have this idea last night, but now thinking carefully, if he really applied, he might cause serious damage to the robbers.

Although he urgently needs silver deer now and wants the robbers to gain more experience points, he is not willing to exchange their lives.

After all, according to what the mercenaries said yesterday, many caravans were killed by the bandits. The bounty hunters went to chase them but failed to catch them. Even the town guards failed to encircle them several times.

HoDeke was not so arrogant that he could be a match for the robbers with only a group of first-class robbers under his command.

"Are there any others?" Hood shook his head slightly, indicating that this job was not suitable for them.

Old Charlie thought about it and said, "There is also a wealthy businessman in the town who is recruiting guards and offers a high salary of 1 silver deer per week."

Guard? Hood thought about it and thought that this job was okay. There was no danger and the pay was not low, but it just couldn't let the robbers gain experience.

"Are there any others?" Hood thought for a while and still didn't plan to do this job, so he continued to ask.

"By the way, Lord Conrad seems to be planning to organize an operation to clear out the robbers. I think he should need manpower." Old Charlie frowned, and suddenly his eyes lit up, as if he thought of something, and he spoke quickly.

"This time, in order to show his determination to completely wipe out the bandits, Lord Conrad not only ordered Knight Barnett to lead the team himself, but also allowed other mercenaries and bounty hunters in the town to join."

Hearing the news, Hood was shocked, but his face did not show any change. He pretended to be indifferent and asked, "Knight Barnett led the team personally?"

"Yes, not only that, Lord Conrad also specially selected two light infantry squads and a crossbow squad from the town and let Knight Barnett lead them." Old Charlie explained.

"You can go to Knight Barnett to ask, you may get a good job."

Hood nodded, then turned back to his seat, thinking about the news he learned from the tavern owner.

It seems that the bandits have violated the bottom line of Rhine Town, otherwise Conrad, who lives in the castle, would not have sent troops to encircle and suppress them again and again.

As for whether to follow the advice of the tavern owner, Old Charlie, and go talk to Knight Barnett, Hood said he would never take the initiative to send himself to the door.

Even though he had dealt with all the people who knew about the affairs of Lesse Village, if he really met Barnett, if he found out something, it would be a disaster.

Unless it was necessary, Hood would never meet Barnett.

Alas~

At this time, Hood sighed. He thought that life would be better after entering Rhine Town, but he didn't expect to worry about work on the first day.

Suddenly, Hood remembered something and stood up and walked out of the tavern.

"Boss?"

The two robbers immediately stood up and followed behind.

"Let's go buy some food and send it to Kuhn and others outside the town."

Hood whispered to the two robbers, and then pushed open the door of the tavern.

Perhaps because he had just entered the town yesterday and didn't sleep well today, Hood actually forgot about Kuhn and Jeff and others who were still outside the town.

Although Hod left all the food and drinking water in his backpack for Kuhn and his friends before entering the town, the food could only sustain them for two days.

Taking advantage of the free time now, Hod planned to buy more food for Kuhn and his friends. He couldn't let Nott and his friends "enjoy life" in the town while he let Kuhn and his friends suffer in the wild.

Facing the rising sun, Hod led the two robbers to the southwest trading market...
