The Invincible Overlord of Heroes

Chapter 538: Thousands of gold to buy horse bones

"Your Excellency Xu Lai, why are you doing this?

If you need any compensation, just ask.

Even if I can't satisfy you, the entire empire and the 364 mercenary guilds will definitely be able to meet your needs. "

It seems that he is giving in, but Xu Lai is not a fool. If he can't hear the faint taste of threat in Mohan's mouth.

But so what, Xu Lai had already weighed the pros and cons before coming in.

Let’s not talk about whether all 364 mercenary guilds can stand behind Mohan.

Even if all the mercenary organizations in the world can unite as one, they will all stand behind Mohan and support Mohan.

So what, mercenaries are a low-level organization after all. Can they pay wages to countless mercenaries in the world or something, make all mercenaries in the world obey orders.

Besides, why do the mercenary guilds from all over the world stand behind Mohan.

Even if Xu Lai discredited the Conaston Mercenary Guild, he even uprooted the Conaston Mercenary Guild.

The so-called mercenary association would at most try to find ways to embarrass Xu Lai.

Just as Ji Long said, all missions to Xu Lai City are intercepted by it and are not allowed to be released.

Or follow Aini's example and put a reward on Xu Lai.

Money attracts people's hearts. If no one is willing to accept a million gold coins, it will be raised to tens of millions.

At this level, I don’t know how many people will be tempted, even those big guys, I’m afraid they can’t help it.

As for whether the mercenary guild would go to war because of face, that has nothing to do with Xu Lai. He has too many debts to worry about anyway.

"You still have an hour."

Xu Lai didn't give any reply, but reminded Mohan coldly.

Most of the mercenaries who dared to resist were already dead, and the rest were either not brave enough or were of too low a level.

Or maybe they thought Xu Lai was joking. With the mercenary guild protecting him, Xu Lai didn't dare to really fall out with the mercenary guild.

However, the truth has hit him once.

The corpses and the smell of blood on the ground made everyone in the mercenary hall and the entire mercenary guild feel a chill in their hearts.

The corpses here are enough to prove Xu Lai's determination. Even the actual controller of this army can't help but feel scared, let alone the fish and meat on their chopping boards.

"Do you have to drive us all away?" Mohan was also a little scared. After all, Xu Lai didn't say that he would spare his life.

In other words, when the time comes, even he, the president of the mercenary guild, may die in the mercenary hall.

But what made him even more desperate was that Xu Lai just gave him a cold look and didn't even bother to answer.

"Your Excellency Xu Lai, I'm sorry, all this is my negligence and my fault.

If you want to punish me, punish me alone. The others are innocent. "

With a plop, the president of the dignified Mercenary Guild, the former guest of Earl Aini, and the distinguished guest of countless dignitaries, now knelt down weakly in front of Xu Lai.

In the face of desperate power, any struggle is in vain.

Speaking of elites, those mercenaries just now are definitely the best among the idle mercenaries.

The combined strength of the entire mercenary guild is not necessarily a match for these elite mercenaries.

However, Xu Lai easily slaughtered them all, and his side didn't even suffer any losses.

With such a desperate power, what could Mohan use to fight against it.

Mercenary Association? Not to mention that distant water cannot quench the near thirst, are those so-called mercenary kings who just want to spend their old age really willing to stand up for Mohan?

In the final analysis, Mohan took matters into his own hands.

I thought that with the strong influence of the mercenary guild, I could control Xu Lai.

Who would have thought that Xu Lai would not accept his threats at all, and his resistance with force was like an arm wrestling between a child and an adult, completely overestimating his own capabilities.

Having said that, after having the power of adults, who would care about the thoughts and will of children.

Seeing Mohan kneel down, Xu Lai finally changed his words.

"I'll give you three days. Within three days, the entire mercenary guild must undergo a major overhaul.

From the president to the vice-president, down to the leadership in charge of this series of tasks, they must resign from their current positions within three days and go to the security station to surrender.

The Sheriff will impose appropriate punishments based on the seriousness of your circumstances, including but not limited to fines and detention.

Secondly, idle mercenaries are not counted. The list of all mercenary groups that have accepted these tasks must be handed over to me. "

Speaking of this, Xu Lai suddenly raised his voice and said to more mercenaries:

"I know that you have basically accepted relevant tasks.

There is also a three-day deadline. You must go to the city hall to pay the fine. Only after you get a certificate of innocence from the city hall can you pass through Conaston or even the entire grassland.

Three days later, the city hall no longer accepted surrenders and issued certificates of innocence.

Anyone who is investigated and punished at that time and takes over related tasks will have all their crimes increased by one level, and the upper limit of the penalty will also be raised to death.

In addition, if you are a member of a mercenary group, ask your group leader to find the peace officer within three days for processing.

Or, within these three days, leave the mercenary group in time.

Otherwise, after three days, all mercenary groups and members who have not been forgiven will be killed without mercy. "

Xu Lai has two completely different levels of punishment for idle mercenaries and mercenary groups.

He has already stated that as long as ordinary mercenaries surrender, they will pay a small fine based on their rank as punishment.

However, if it was a mercenary group that accepted this mission, then Xu Lai would have reason to suspect that the other party really had a detailed plan before taking it.

As individual mercenaries or mercenary teams, they basically continued to play. As the teller said, there was no loss anyway.

But the mercenary group really has the ability to plan and implement relevant tasks, so the punishment standards for the two are naturally very different.

"Also, if anyone among you can provide a detailed map of the dungeon.

Or the detailed location of the Thieves Guild, the list of members, all guilty and innocent.

Not only will I not punish him, but I will also give him a big reward, gold coins, equipment, a house and a car. No matter what you want, I can satisfy him within my ability.

Please help me bring this sentence to the other mercenaries who are not here today. If any mercenary completes a certain request of mine, he can designate some of them as innocent! "

Xu Lai thought about it and gave them other options.

In fact, even if the mercenaries take on such a mission, the ones who actually take action are often only a few large and ambitious mercenary groups.

Moreover, the mercenary guild was open to the public after all, and Xu Lai could easily ask them to cancel the mission.

But the underground Thieves Guild, Dark Alliance and other forces, Xu Lai didn't even know where they were, so how could he force them to cancel the mission.

Besides, even if they could be forced to cancel the mission, wouldn't the killers who took over the mission just complete it?

They could just ask for the underground reward directly.

As long as Aini doesn't die, I believe he is willing to pay more for Xu Lai's head.

Even if Xu Lai kills Aini now, there will still be many killers who have accepted the task and will continue to try, because forces like the Thieves Guild are also linked.

These assassins walking in the darkness are what Xu Lai really wants to be wary of.

Similarly, these mercenaries traveled all over the country and saw so many strange things and gained so much information.

In his previous trip underground, Xu Lai not only failed to get what he wanted, but also offended the Queen of the Dungeon, Moriel.

Of course, Xu Lai was not at a loss either. Not only did he plunder a large amount of gold coins, he also rescued a right-hand man.

But offending the Dragon Queen means that Xu Lai can no longer easily explore underground.

What's more, the underground world is so vast. Even if most places are not connected, it is still an extremely huge world.

In such a world, finding a buried treasure location without a map is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

If you have enough time, even if you are looking for a needle in a haystack, Xu Lai can do it slowly.

When more manpower is available in the future and more underground corners can be searched at one time, Xu Lai will be able to get the information he wants sooner or later.

But isn't there not enough time now? Xu Lai is eager to get the power of the Golden Statue of the God of War, so he can only rely on these mercenaries traveling around.

"I, I have a map of the underground city. It was given to me by a traveling cartographer. It is said to be very accurate."

At this time, a young mercenary who looked to be in his teens stood up from the corner shivering.

Xu Lai's eyes lit up and he immediately waved to him and said, "Very good. Is the map with you? If so, can you show it to me first?"

"Yes, yes."

The young mercenary carefully took out a parchment from his arms. When he wanted to get closer, he was stopped by Roland.

"Just leave it to me!"

Xu Lai had a reward of 2 million gold coins hanging on his head. How could Roland dare to let a stranger get close to Xu Lai?

However, Xu Lai waved his hand and said, "Let him come over."

This mercenary looks very young, and his level and strength should not be very high.

Even if he is an underground killer in disguise, Xu Lai is not too worried. After all, his health points exceed 1,000, dozens of times that of ordinary farmers, and there is enough room for error.

Roland glanced at Xu Lai and reluctantly stepped aside, but kept his sharp eyes fixed on the young mercenary.

Fortunately, this little guy really just came here to hand over the map and had no other ideas.

After Xu Lai took the map, he slowly unfolded it.

The parchment is not big, about the size of an A3 piece of paper, and the drawing area is not too large. It only contains a city and a dozen nearby wild buildings and mineral resources.

However, although the content is not much, the map is very detailed and professional.

It not only marked the location of the wild buildings, but also marked the wild monster guards at that time, as well as the specific functions of the wild buildings, and even an underground passage that communicated with the ground world.

But Xu Lai took a quick glance and couldn't find any familiar lines on this map.

With Xu Lai's current intelligence and memory, he can basically achieve photographic memory.

Therefore, he did not need to take out the obelisk map given by the God of War. He could draw a detailed comparison map in his mind just by relying on his own brain.

However, there was no information that Xu Lai wanted on this map.

But Xu Lai was very interested in the dozen or so wild buildings and mineral resources.

Moreover, the underground passage is connected to the Northern Empire. It is neither too far nor difficult to develop, but it is still very valuable.

The key is that this young man is the first to meet Xu Lai's conditions. Based on the principle of buying horse bones for a thousand gold, Xu Lai cannot be stingy.

"Very good, it is indeed a map of the dungeon. What kind of reward would you like to receive for this map?"

Xu Lai didn't know what price the other party paid to get this map.

Therefore, he did not speak rashly, lest he think that he had offered a sky-high price, but others did not buy it, which would be embarrassing.

"I, I don't want reward, can you exempt me and my friends from the punishment? We really didn't want to do anything bad to you."

The young mercenary was almost crying. The hall that was bustling just now was now full of corpses, and the smell of blood was everywhere.

Xu Lai forced a smile and said: "Well, with this map, I can not only exempt you from punishment, but I will also ask the city hall to issue you ten certificates of innocence.

Ten certificates of innocence should be enough for you and your friends. "

The young mercenary nodded hurriedly and said: "Enough, that's enough."

Xu Lai nodded with satisfaction and continued: "In addition to this map, I will also compensate you with an additional 5,000 gold coins.

And, if you are willing, I can recommend you to serve in the Sheriff's Office and become a peace officer in Cornaston. "

"Is this true?"

The young mercenary opened his mouth wide. He probably never dreamed that this map would be so valuable.

In terms of actual value alone, Xu Lai's reward of 5,000 gold coins is already very rich.

But this young mercenary was the first to stand up, so Xu Lai was willing to give him more benefits.

"Of course, this is my promise to you. You can go to the city hall tomorrow to get your certificate of innocence. You can also report to the police station tomorrow. You don't have to be a wandering mercenary anymore."

"Thank you, my dear lord."

Xu Lai smiled and patted his shoulder, and said: "You can give it to your friend with the certificate of innocence.

But I want to remind you, if your friend is an ordinary mercenary, this certificate of innocence is enough.

But if he is a member of a mercenary group and is still a leader, he can only use the innocence certificate if he quits the mercenary group. "

Xu Lai's punishment for ordinary mercenaries was originally symbolic.

This was all obtained by licking blood with the blade of a knife, and Xu Lai didn't bother to search for money from others.

But the leader of the mercenary group didn't handle it this way.

"Don't worry, we are just ordinary mercenaries."

Xu Lai nodded and immediately signaled that he could be let go.

With this young mercenary taking the lead, the voices of mercenaries came one after another in the hall.

"I have a map of the dungeon!"

"I know someone who is the killer of the Thieves Guild!"
