If you walk north along the grassland, you can see the garrisoned fortress army. Looking down from the air, you can see the dividing line between emerald green and yellow sand, which is very shocking.

In the blink of an eye, five days have passed, and because the convoy is speeding up, the speed is a little faster than when it came, and it only takes half a day to reach the fourth fortress.

Pulling back the curtain, looking at the familiar environment outside the carriage, the messenger took a deep breath, enjoying the air in this familiar land.

Jiang Chun ignored the envoy who was enjoying himself, but shrugged and yawned.

"There are robbers coming, and if you don't want to be shot by an arrow, you put your head back."

Chapter 57: Return to the Stronghold

Suddenly there was a loud shout of killing from the small woods in the distance, and nearly fifty mercenaries rushed out from hundreds of meters away, the swords in their hands gleaming brightly, exuding a frightening chill.

The leader was a Tier [-], and there were several Tier [-]s under his command, who came to kill them together.

It's just that although Tier [-] is strong, he actually falls behind the team. It seems that the speed with all his strength is not as fast as his subordinates.

"It's very cautious to ask the younger brother to test the information first."

The palm of the hand rested on the shoulder of the robber leader, and when he turned his head in shock, he exerted force instantly, and his five fingers crushed the shoulder blade on the spot.

The robbers rushing forward were startled when they heard the leader's scream. When they were about to retreat, they saw more than a dozen guards pulling out the most exquisite bows and crossbows.

A volley of arrows shot all over the sky, piercing the group of robbers with tattered equipment in an instant.

As the richest mission of the fourth fortress, the equipment of the guards is not comparable to this group of robbers.Even if Jiang Chun is not around, the envoy can wipe out this group of first-rank robbers with a few scrolls.

Grabbing the leader of the robbers, a few sword qi instantly hit the remaining second-order members, covering their wounds in pain, curled up on the ground and howled.

"Tell me, who sent you to attack the mission?"

"Embassy?! Messenger, please forgive me, please forgive me!"

The leader fell to his knees with a slap, looking desperately at the smiling Jiang Chun.

Jiang Chun could sense that the leader of the robbers was not lying, which only showed that the robbers in the vicinity were a bit rampant.

He didn't do any intelligence, and he bit it like a mad dog when he saw that the motorcade was very luxurious.

I don't know how many caravans have been killed recently?

"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll bring you back to the fortress at most, and you can ask for more blessings for the rest."

"no no!"

Ignoring the wailing of the robber leader, he tied him up and handed it over to the guards who came for the round.

A storm dissipated, and the convoy continued to move towards the fortress, but this time there were a few more prisoners.

After encountering two more waves of robbers along the way, the emissary sighed in annoyance, but when he thought that he would soon reach the fortress, his mood recovered a lot.

"My lord, are those mercenaries? They are so bold that they dare to rob a passing convoy."

"Robbery? Maybe this is just the beginning."

"Start? Could something more serious happen?"

Jiang Chun smiled, but did not answer the messenger's question.

In fact, although he had guessed, it had only been half a month, and he didn't expect the guess to come true so soon.

A large reduction in tasks will affect the income of a large number of mercenaries. Mercenaries who go in and out of restaurants, chicken yards and other places have long been accustomed to spending money lavishly.

But the days of no money are simply hell for them now, and it is impossible for mercenaries who can't get the mission to find ordinary jobs.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

Jiang Chun knew without thinking that there would definitely be mercenaries making trouble, and perhaps some of them would be caught by the city guards, and most of the mercenaries would not dare to act rashly after killing chickens to warn monkeys.

Killing and setting fire to the gold belt is very dangerous in the city, but there are not so many scruples outside the city, just run away after grabbing it.

The only thing that makes Jiang Chun not sure is whether the third prince is also contributing to the flames?

If so, it would be interesting!

After tossing for a long time, the convoy finally came to the side entrance of the fourth fortress.

Although the location this time was different from Jiang Chun's before, there were actually several times more soldiers than before. There were even crossbow arrows erected every few meters on the city wall.

Even hundreds of meters away, you can feel a faint chill.

"It seems that the matter is serious." Jiang Chun thought silently.

The convoy quickly passed the city gate and headed towards the palace.

All the way deep, the atmosphere on both sides of the street has not changed at all, but when Jiang Chun let go of his five senses, he can feel the sadness of some businessmen.

On the streets of the bustling commercial area, the number of mercenaries is significantly less than before, especially the members of the small and medium mercenary regiments, who have almost disappeared.

Entering the square outside the palace, several members of the mission got out of the carriage and followed the people who came to greet the team to the depths of the palace.

Compared with the second fortress, the palace of the fourth fortress is more prosperous, and all kinds of precious treasures are placed on the exhibition stand. If a thief can steal one or two pieces, it will be enough to squander for several years.

"The financial resources are really terrifying. No wonder they can issue missions to support such a large group of mercenaries."

Most of the mercenary guild's battlefield missions are issued by the palace, at least all around the fourth fortress are in charge of the palace.

It's just that the current mercenary influence has not spread to other fortresses, and the other mercenary unions combined are not as strong as the fourth fortress.

Although I haven't counted it carefully, there are already tens of thousands of members in the large mercenary group alone, and there are at least [-] other mercenaries.

Including the army in the hands of the third prince, he may have directly or indirectly controlled more than [-] troops.

I followed the waiter all the way to the back garden of the palace. The rich fragrance of flowers filled with a faint breath of life. Although it is not very useful, it can also make people mentally stable and have a good night's sleep every day.

On a table made of strange trees, there was a set of tea sets, and in front of the wooden table was a pale young man.

The young man looked a little thin, his short silver-gray hair was a little dry, and his mental state was not particularly full.

Seeing Jiang Chun and the envoy coming in, the young man smiled and got up to invite them to sit down.

Interesting, I didn't expect the ruler of the fourth fortress to be a sick and weak prince.Jiang Chun thought silently in his heart.

From the current point of view, it seems that the leaders of each fortress are a bit special, either they are too strong or they are similar to abandoned children.

"Mr. Baiyi, please sit down."

Jiang Chun sat down with a smile, reached out for the teapot very bluntly, filled himself a cup and tasted it carefully.

The third prince was stunned for a moment, and his eyes signaled the envoy to back down.

The messenger trembled, and quickly left after saluting respectfully.

"Will Mr. Bai Yi gain something from this trip?"

"Third Prince, you don't have to beat around the bush. Although I don't go into the world often, I'm not a fool who doesn't know anything. I know your purpose very well."

"Hahaha, as a powerful swordsman, Mr. Bai Yi should be decisive."

"Since that's the case, let's get straight to the point. May I ask Mr. Baiyi if he knows the legend that caused the disturbance in the Second Fortress?"

"I didn't know each other before, but I met a week ago."

Taking a sip of tea, Jiang Chun's attitude gave the third prince a headache, but he had to continue talking.

He did have the idea of ​​contacting the new legend, but he didn't have a strong idea, because destroying the church was not a partner he could cooperate with.

Cooperating with the Church of Ruin, which is several times stronger than him, the status of the two parties will never be equal.

If you can talk, talk, if you can't talk, let it go.

He smiled and poured tea to Jiang Chun, the third prince asked inadvertently.

"Congratulations to Mr. Bai Yi, whose strength has greatly increased during this trip. I wonder when will Mr. Bai Yi break through that boundary?"

Jiang Chun secretly said in his heart: It's finally here.replied with a smile.

"Maybe tomorrow, maybe half a year later. No one dares to guarantee such a thing."

Chapter 58: The Black Beast Mercenary Group?wait to die!

"Then I would like to congratulate Mr. Bai Yi in advance for becoming a Juggernaut."

"Thank you, Third Prince, for your blessing. If you get the blessing, you may be promoted tomorrow."

"Haha, I'm looking forward to Mr. Baiyi's promotion dinner."

The third prince laughed heartily, and the atmosphere became more soothing. After the two chatted about irrelevant topics for a while, the third prince hinted at Jiang Chun, and after getting a positive reply, he felt a lot more relaxed.

Legendary combat power is very important in his plan, if possible, it is best to have a legend under his command.

But legends are not rotten fish and rotten shrimps. Even if the third prince has money, he can't forcefully feed a legend.

He himself is extremely difficult to practice due to physical reasons, and he spent a lot of money just to enter the first level from ordinary people.

If there is no way to find a subordinate, then at least one must have a reliable ally.

The fourth fortress has three legends, but those three really can't reassure him.

One was a former mercenary, the other was an undisclosed person in the kingdom, and the other was loyal to the king, specially to monitor his actions in the fourth fortress.

He has no way of guaranteeing that these three people will not turn against the water at all, and it is also difficult to recruit other legends, so Jiang Chun's appearance is the greatest hope of the third prince.

Allies who invest in advance will always be more reliable in the future than others.

"This is the key to the treasury. The reward promised to Mr. Baiyi will never be less. Mr. Baiyi can enter the treasury and choose treasures that are equal to your reward. Or just ask a price, which must meet Mr. Baiyi's requirements."

Handing the key to Jiang Chun trustingly, the third prince's arrogance was vividly displayed.

It's just that Jiang Chun won't just believe it so simply, that the arrogance is real, but if he thinks the other party is naive, then it's over.

The other party simply believed that he was only the peak of Tier [-], even if he was a legend, he would not be able to snatch the treasure house and run away, so he gave him the key so reassuringly.

The method of winning people's hearts is not bad, but it's a pity that the opponent is Jiang Chun.If it is someone else, it will probably increase the favorability.

And it is said to be taken casually, but in fact there is a hint of temptation hidden.

"Thank you, Your Highness, then I will go first."

"Mr. Baiyi is really impatient, no matter! I have a chance to have a drink with Mr. Baiyi in the future."

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Chun's figure had disappeared.The third prince who sat alone at the wooden table drank the tea in the cup slowly, sighed and shook his head.

"Half a year? I hope this ally can break through smoothly, otherwise I won't have much time left."
