Transcendent Noble
Chapter 9
The Old Jack’s Tavern is located in the southwest corner of Black Castle. It is in a remote location and is associated with the stables and pigsty, but the tavern’s business has always been very good. Because the Old Jack Tavern is the location of the black market in Black Castle Town. Every day, before it gets dark, mercenaries, dealers, intelligence dealers, bards, orioles will come and go in and out of this tavern with various purposes. In such a tavern, you can buy a lot of things that you can't buy outside, provided you have money.
Nelson was sitting bored in a corner of the Old Jack’s Tavern, and the solid oak table in front of him had nothing but a heavy battle axe lying horizontally.
Place a weapon on the table in the tavern, indicating that he is a mercenary waiting to be recruited, and there is no food or wine on the table, just because he has no money.
It's cold outside, but it's warm inside the pub. A fire pit has already risen in the middle of the tavern, and the leaping tongue of fire is licking the cauldron on it. In the pot, dozens of pickled rabbits were tumbling in the milk-white soup, one after another, the rich aroma teased everyone's appetite.
The tavern Boss Hal, never drives out any pauper mercenary, but don’t expect him to give you a glass of inferior mare kumiss worth 5 copper sols for nothing, so Nelson Now he can only swallow at the pickled rabbit.
The door of the tavern was pushed open, and Nelson looked up and saw that Boss Hal, with a flattering smile, greeted a few guys covered by cloaks into the private room on the second floor.
Nelson knows the details of these people. They are the subordinates of the Black Castle quartermaster, and they often hand over some eliminated munitions to Hal for sale. Nelson’s War Bear Mercenaries bought two eliminated crossbows from Hal. Except for the emblems being worn away, Nelson did not see where they needed to be eliminated.
The door was violently knocked open again, and a one-eyed brawny man 1.9 meters tall rushed in with a cold wind, causing several mercenaries sitting at the door to shout loudly.
"The head is really free." The one-eyed person ignored a few provocative mercenaries and walked straight to Nelson's table, putting two 10-pounds weighing on them. The brown bread was thrown on the table and let out a "peng" sound.
Several mercenaries who originally wanted to talk to the one-eyed person with their fists, saw that the one-eyed person was Nelson’s, and quickly sat down again, talking loudly about the bar Which of the waitresses has the bigger butt, as if nothing happened.
"Where are they?" Nelson picked up a piece of brown bread and chewed it. The brown bread that was already hard as a rock was crunchy in Nelson's mouth as if it was just baked Oatmeal cakes.
"Lilia also took them in line at the church, thinking about getting some more brown bread." The one-eyed person scratched his head. "If the church catches a few more wizards, then we can receive more free bread."
Every time the church holds a purification ceremony, it will distribute some food to the local people for free. This ancient The tradition has continued to this day.
Nelson swallowed a 5-pound piece of brown bread in three mouthfuls and said with a smile to a one-eyed person; The wizard who died more than 20 people was subdued. Like Black Castle, it’s really rare that no one was killed this time."
"Head, the Winged Dragon gang turned to me again There is a message, they want to talk to you." The one-eyed person said resolutely to Nelson.
Nelson stared at the one-eyed person’s eyes and asked in a low voice; "Grue, what do you think?"
"Head, I listen to you ." One-eyed person Gruul frankly faced Nelson's stare. "But Hammer and the others seem to be very excited."
"They want to go, and I won't stop them, but I want to make it clear to you that the Winged Dragon gang are not clean." Elson Sighed said to Gru: "I have always suspected that Winged Dragon is the periphery of the blood fox thief group. Merging with them will not result in good results."
"Our Battle Bear Group has been established for more than 20 years. , I fought against Sasanian in the north, and wiped out the Jackal tribe in the south, but the most we fought against was the band of thieves. The old leader of the previous generation was seriously injured in the battle with thieves. Before he died, he handed over the mercenary group to me. Come on. I still remember him telling me that thieves have no future, but mercenaries have!" Nelson touched the tomahawk on the table, feeling a little bit but more determined.
"Head, you rescued me from the thief six years ago. My eye was shot blind by the thief. Head, rest assured, my life is yours! Even if you starve to death, you won't give your life to the thieves! I'll go find the hammer and they say!" Gru stood up excitedly and rushed out.
"Sit down!" Nelson stopped Gru.
"I know all the thoughts of Hammer and the others. Over the past few years, the old brothers in the regiment are dead and disabled. The Hammer told me in private that he told me to treat all the disabled brothers. Disbanded, only in this way can the mercenary group continue to grow. What he said makes sense, but I can’t bear it.” Nelson said helplessly to Gru: “This time Gambis Kingdom is opening up Centaur Hills. I will bring everyone here, that’s it. I want to try one's luck and see if I can be recruited by that lord to become a family guard, and it can be considered as a way out for everyone. It's just didn't expect..."
Gelu was silent, War The strength of Bear Mercenaries is a well-known figure among the peers, especially the head Nelson is also Peak’s expert among the mercenaries. It's just that there are too many old and weak soldiers in the regiment. In the mercenary group of more than forty people, 11 people have lost their battle strength. Every time the employer saw so many disabled people, he shook his head and gave up. Up to now, the mercenary group has not received a task for a long time.
And the lord recruiting family guards is indeed a good way out for mercenaries, but is there that noble master who is willing to raise so much waste? The two were relatively speechless for a while.
Nelson picked up a large package under his feet with his hand, lightly threw it on the table, and the heavy weight of the package made the table sink.
The lightly patted package, Nelson said with some dismay: "It seems that I can only sell this Old Partner."
"Head, this is not your half body. A? This can't be sold!" Glu stood up in shock.
Be aware that mercenaries are generally equipped with leather armor. Few can be equipped with lock armor. Plate armor is strong enough to withstand most attacks, but its heavy weight also makes it not strong enough. People can't afford it, and its expensive price discourages mercenaries.
This half-body armor is a gift given to him by the owner of the caravan after Nelson defeated a band of thieves who were looting the caravan. Usually, Nelson's baby is terrible, and even the maintenance work has to be done by himself.
And now Nelson is going to sell it! Glu just felt sad for a while.
"Needless to say, the funds in the group are running low, and there is no business now. If you sell it, you should take an emergency." After speaking, Nelson picked up the package and walked to the bar.
"Tell Hal to come out, there is something for him to see." Throwing the package on the bar, Nelson said gruffly to the bartender.
After a while, Hal came out, touched the package on the bar, and said to Nelson with a smile; "Captain Nelson, before you sell this half-length armor, I I want to take you to see a great character."
"Great character, who?" Nelson looked at the tavern boss carefully.
"Baron Wimbledon Lord!"
