Martial Arts and Fantasy: the Evil Emperor of All Realms

"Leader, a fifth-level discipline knight, came from the Holy League, but he's just a B-level mercenary?" Xing Xiaoqi asked in surprise.

During the speech, the depression in the sky seemed to gradually dissipate.The black clouds are disappearing, and the sun shines through the clouds and shines on the body, which is indescribably comfortable.The blue sky emerged from the gaps in the dark clouds, as vast and clear as the ocean, in stark contrast to the black clouds.

There were sighs and complaints all around, presumably those mercenaries who were drenched by the rain must be shouting in their hearts that the suffering is finally over.

"The promotion of a mercenary is a long and dangerous process. The important thing is that every time you get promoted, your income will probably increase by at least five times. A B-rank mercenary at the age of the leader of the gold hunter is considered excellent. "Ye Sheng raised his head, as if he also breathed a sigh of relief because the dark clouds had dissipated.

Just as Xing Xiaoqi was about to say something, the group leader's magic-infused sound wave came from the front.

"Two hundred meters ahead is the destination of our trip, and it will also be your home in the future. Let's get acquainted with it later. Hmm--the next mission we will receive collectively is on July [-]th. There are three days. The task has been set, and I will tell you in three days. But in other words, there are only three days before you receive your salary. Lucky newcomers, you can do whatever you want during these three days!

"Let me tell you first, there is a very hidden entrance to the underground shopping mall near the tavern, and you will definitely be interested in the things below.

"Don't disband when the time comes, I will give you the badges of the mercenary regiment one by one."

The distance of two hundred meters was almost fleeting, and after a while, a large group of mercenary regiments had already stood at the door of the tavern.

Originally, such a large group of people would definitely attract some attention, but the arrival of this group of people was like throwing a stone into the sea, and it was submerged by the waves before it could make a circle of ripples.

The tavern was unexpectedly huge. The huge wooden building was more than [-] meters high and probably covered an area of ​​more than [-] square meters. It was indeed a giant tavern that claimed to be able to accommodate a thousand people.The tavern is surrounded by dense dark green plants, winding around the tavern, like spirit snakes sticking out their tongues, seeming to be swaying slightly in the wind, nameless fireflies surround these magical and unique plants, such as Dreamlike.The door was opened majestically and straightly, and all kinds of mercenaries could be seen sitting or standing active inside.

Above the main entrance of the tavern, there is a huge wooden board with the simple words "Tree Demon Bar" written in Nebula language.

In Xing Xiaoqi's imagination, most of the mercenary taverns should be gathering places for poor people who earn only enough money to drink a few bottles of ale. In theory, they should be dilapidated. Even if they are huge, they are probably very old. .What I saw in front of me was a beautiful building that completely subverted Xing Xiaoqi's imagination. For a while, Xing Xiaoqi's eyes seemed to be sucked by this giant snake spirit tree.

Chapter 173 Mercenaries

The new mercenaries were not much better than Xing Xiaoqi, and the expressions they showed were a combination of surprise and surprise. Obviously, the mercenary tavern they originally imagined was similar to Xing Xiaoqi's.

Ye Sheng showed a natural expression, he didn't know if he knew it beforehand or deliberately concealed his inner fluctuations.

The head of the regiment and the old members who accompanied him to recruit mercenaries all looked plain. After arriving, most of the old regiment members bypassed the main entrance and didn't know where they were going. A small part went directly into the tavern. In the end, only The remaining group leader stood alone in front of the crowd.

"This is not our destination. The mercenary tavern, that is, the tree demon bar, is a rectangular building. The front is the gate, and the left, right, and rear are the reception desks for E and F mercenaries. Rest area. Come with me." After speaking, he walked to the right.

Hearing this, most people understood slightly.Obviously, the treatment inside and outside the tavern must be very different.

After walking for a while, the scene on the right side of the tavern became obvious.Huge awnings cover some of the tables and chairs in shadows that the sun cannot reach, while the other parts are exposed to the sun.At this time, the rain had just stopped, and there was a fresh atmosphere on the grass. Many mercenaries were sitting on chairs, with various weapons leaning on the table, showing a wild and free atmosphere.And in the middle of the right side of the tavern, in front of a long front desk with many beautiful female receptionists standing, there are also some scattered mercenaries standing here and there, which should be the reception desk.

"Don't walk around casually, I'll be right back." The head of the group took us behind and walked quickly to the front desk, not knowing what to do.

It’s just that on the right side of the tavern, there are hundreds of people at a glance. These twenty or so new mercenaries did not attract many people’s attention. A little bit of ecstasy makes you want to laugh, and the ale and some stir-fries on the table have a unique aroma.

If the reception desk is removed, this place is simply a food stall in the town.Xing Xiaoqi thought maliciously.

The head of the regiment came back soon as he said, holding a handful of badges in his hand.These should undoubtedly be the emblems of the Gold Hunters.The head of the regiment handed out the regiment badges one by one to the hands of more than [-] people including Xing Xiaoqi and Ye Sheng, then turned and left.Finally, he waved his hands to the bewildered newcomer and said, "You can do whatever you want."

"I'm really irresponsible." Xing Xiaoqi pouted.

"Let's go, let's go to pick up the mission? By the way, let's take a look at the general way of life here, there are still many things to be familiar with." Albert did not know when he stuck his head in front of Xing Xiaoqi, and said with some expectation.

Xing Xiaoqi also wanted to go directly to see if there were any good tasks. "Let's go together?" Xing Xiaoqi looked at Ye Sheng and said.

"Well, let's go. It's good to have someone to take care of you together." The latter agreed with a smile.

So the three walked side by side towards the reception desk.

"By the way, Ye Sheng, what's your name? I mean your full name." Xing Xiaoqi asked curiously.

"My full name?" Ye Sheng repeated strangely, "My full name is Ye Sheng."

"What?" Xing Xiaoqi didn't respond, but Albert's face changed and he stopped suddenly. "Are you from the royal family of the Arcane Empire?"

"No, no, it's not like that. Don't get me wrong. It's just that I don't remember. This name was only given to me later." Ye Sheng waved his hand and explained.

"So it's like this." Albert let out a long breath, "So it's like this. I thought you were from the Arcane Empire. Nebula and Arcane are two incompatible countries. If it wasn't for the separation in the middle One month of Huazhisen, I don’t know how big and how frequent the war will be. You should hurry up and choose a surname, only the first name is easy to be misunderstood.”

"Don't worry." Ye Sheng raised his head in confusion, not knowing what he was thinking.

It was around four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were not many mercenaries in front of the front desk.There are more than a dozen large-sized bounty boards with various mercenary missions for rewards. From right to left, there are F, E, and D-level missions. Among them, E-level tasks are the most, F-level tasks are second, and D-level tasks are the least. It seems that there are only a few D-rank mission scrolls posted on the bounty board.

In contrast, the reward for D-level tasks is almost five or six times that of E-level tasks, all in gold coins.

The F-level tasks are mainly carrying, sending, and collecting tasks. It seems that even ordinary people can complete them. The highest reward is 8 silver coins, and the lowest is only 2 silver coins.

On the border of the Nebula Empire, in a small town like Yuhua Town, a family of three only needs 9 silver coins a month.In other words, it only takes one gold coin to support a family of three for a year.

From this point of view, it seems to be a good choice to be a low-level mercenary.Xing Xiaoqi thought in her heart, and felt how correct her decision to become a mercenary was. She used to do such work as sending a letter and moving things in the town back then, so it might not have been such a lucrative reward.

"I know what you're thinking." Ye Sheng, who looked at Xing Xiaoqi's twinkling eyes, said suddenly, "You must be thinking, being a mercenary really makes money, and there is such a good 'home', right?"

Xing Xiaoqi was taken aback, then subconsciously nodded.

Chapter 174 Unit

"Then you are wrong. After you leave towns and cities and become a mercenary, you will no longer be protected by the laws of the empire. No one will care about your life or death, even if you are Someone killed for a certain purpose, and there is clear evidence, and the imperial court will not accept any complaints related to mercenaries.

"Do you understand what I mean? Do you still remember the fourth requirement for entering this mercenary group? That rule requires that mercenaries should not be afraid of death. This is not aimless. When you accept this rule, you are already in It's a dangerous situation. So although mercenaries are presumptuous, they have a strict hierarchy, and almost no mercenaries will provoke higher-level mercenaries—even if there is constant friction between mercenaries of the same level."

Xing Xiaoqi couldn't accept the series of verbal bombardment, "You mean, if the mercenary dies, he dies? Nothing else? The murderer won't be punished?"

"you can say it this way."

"This is really a profession that licks blood on the knife's edge." Xing Xiaoqi used to think that the threat of mercenaries was only those monsters that needed to be hunted. Now, after hearing Ye Sheng's words, it seems that it is far from that simple. .I am afraid that the greatest enemy of human beings is still human beings.

"Yes." Albert said, staring at the various tasks on the bulletin board, "Can new mercenaries only accept F-level tasks, Ye Sheng?"

"Well, we are all the same. By the way, the badge of a mercenary can show the level. If you put a little magic power into the badge, you can see the level of the mercenary." Ye Sheng said.
