639 Irregularity
Throwing yourself into the net? Beta chuckled. The god-descended nobles are the best at self-preservation, and the god-descended nobles who have grown up, as long as they learn enough magic and keep up with their expertise, it is difficult to be killed.
Even in front of the legendary brave Kate, Beta looked relaxed and natural, except for the World Tree, the strongest fire dragon king Margaret is already a demigod monster, even if the legendary dragon comes, Beta feels that he can escape.
Being able to survive in extremely harsh environments and situations, most of the time, is much more important than having a strong attack.
After all, the vast majority of players believe in one 'truth'.
Standing is the only way to have an output.
So in Rooney's opinion, Beta is going to throw himself into the net, but in Beta's own opinion, he is just going to go around the Sanctuary, scout it, and see if he can take advantage of it.
After all, the more muddy the place, the easier it is to touch the fish.
Rooney wanted to persuade Beta, but thinking of the diary left by Ash's ancestors, Beta was described as wise and wise, and wanted to give up the idea of persuasion, after all, he personally admired Beta.
For the next few days, no one came to trouble the four of them.
On the sixth day, Beta and the others were in a city called 'Maple Grove'.
In this world, there are many towns and cities called Maple Grove, and there should be at least no less than twenty, but only Maple Grove City in the Temple of Light is the most famous.
Because there are so many people here...... Maple Grove is a medium-sized city in the Kingdom of France, but it has a population of over one million, about the same size as the royal city of Holleven.
Unlike most cities in Hollevin that have walls, few cities in France have walls, because no country dares to invade them. In history, the country of France has only been invaded by barbarians twice, and after causing certain losses, all the invading barbarians have been wiped out.
There was no such thing as a capitation fee because there were no walls, but the Frans had another way of collecting a commercial tax, and every merchant who wanted to do business in the city had to be registered with the tax collector, and the monthly tax was set according to the size of the storefront.
This price is not very high.
And those small stall vendors don't need to pay any commercial sharp.
Because of the relatively relaxed commercial system, this made the business atmosphere in France very good, as long as the lords were not too harsh, the city here was very lively, along the streets were hawkers, and the streets were bustling with people.
Beta had found an inn to stay in, and he had wanted to send Jessica back to Aukin, but the little maid begged with tears in her eyes that she wanted to stay with her master.
Maybe she also felt that Jessica hadn't gone out to play for a long time, so Beta asked her to continue to follow her, anyway, when there was danger, just throw her into the mansion space, and now Jessica's level has also reached LV5, and her strength is stronger than Rooney, so she may not encounter any danger.
After a day of rest at the inn, Beta left Rooney and Kelissa to rest at the inn, and he took Jessica out of town.
The reason why he stayed in this city was because he remembered very well that in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of Maple Grove City, there was a large tomb of the Elven Kingdom.
This tomb was excavated by the Jialan Guild, and they have gained great wealth and strength as a result. There are many magical tools and equipment in the tombs, which are very important materials for any force.
Beta wanted to keep the contents of the tomb for herself. Provided, of course, that the tomb has not been discovered by anyone else.
After about fourteen kilometers away from Maple Grove, Beta took Jessica into a lush wood.
Beta asked Joan of Arc to be on guard in the air, and he let go of all his spiritual power, and the terrain within a radius of about five hundred meters was in his perception.
Of course, due to the obstacles and thickness, the depth that can be perceived underground is only about 150 meters, but this is enough, he walked around for half an hour, and quickly determined the entrance to the tomb, and confirmed that the entrance was still very blocked and not invaded by other people.
Beta then returned to Maple Grove and then went to the city's mercenary guild.
Although the mercenary union is a worldwide organization, the mercenary union of each country has its own characteristics and 'character'. For example, the mercenary guild in Hollevon is more 'rude' because most of them are warriors, thieves, and have very few spellcasters. The mercenary union of the Frans is much more elegant, first, this is the base camp of the Illuminati Cult, many priests will choose to become mercenaries for a period of time, to increase their experience, and combat ability, on the other hand, the Frans are naturally arrogant, even if they are warriors or thieves, they are more literate than people from other small and poor countries.
Of course, what is going on inside the individual, it is clear to everyone that there is no difference between a large country and a small country.
On the other hand, because the country of Faslan is relatively wealthy, the mercenary union here is more elegant in layout and style.
At the door is a string of copper wind chimes, whenever someone enters and exits the door, it is a jingling sound, which is very good. The wooden floor and counter in the lobby are all pale color, with a special light wax, which looks very clean. In addition, the tables and chairs are pure white, the snowflake-colored kind, and with the faint magic light source on the wall, the whole mercenary guild looks more upscale and luxurious than the living room of most nobles.
In such an environment, even a rude person can't help but restrain his temperament a little.
As soon as Beta entered the mercenary union, she attracted the attention of many people. Although the country of Saying Aranz has a higher average personal quality and IQ, there are still a small number of spellcasters here.
Besides, there was obviously a little girl who looked like a maid behind him, which made it even more eye-catching.
People who don't have eyesight will think that Beta is just a big young master who travels with a maid, and they either disdain it, or they start to turn their minds.
And the eyesight is better, and it can be seen that Jessica's strength is quite good, and some people can barely see that Beta is also very strong. After all of them looked at each other, they immediately lowered their heads and pretended not to see anything.
Beta walked up to the counter and asked the female teller, "I need to hire a team of mercenaries with a decent reputation and good strength, and they can gather in these two days, what is the best introduction?" ”
"Five copper coins for the benefit of consulting fees."
Beta placed the copper coins on the table, while the female counter searched through a pile of documents, and finally took out three pieces of paper, handed them to Beta, and said, "These are three free mercenary squads, they should be able to meet your requirements." You can take a look first, and if there is a squad that suits your liking, please let me know again, and our union will notify them immediately. ”
After politely thanking the female teller, Beta took three pieces of paper, sat down at an empty table, looked at it for a while, and then had a plan in her heart.
The reason why Beta wants to hire a team of mercenaries is to go to 'tomb robbing'.
Speaking of mercenary groups, Judy's mercenary group is very strong and can be qualified for this 'tomb robbery mission'. But it's because they're so strong that Beta doesn't want to use them.
After all, there are two strong masters in that mercenary group, and the others are all elites and above, and the things in the tombs of the elven kingdom are too valuable, Beta is worried that in that case, the Silver Wing mercenary group will 'turn against the water', and there will be a contract, which will barely suppress their greed, but this will inevitably leave a mustard in the hearts of these people, affecting the cooperation between the two parties, and Judy will be caught in it, and it will be difficult to be a person.
Beta can trust Judy, but not her members.
But if it's a mercenary squad of average strength, then there's no problem. Tomb robbing is not too troublesome, but there are some mechanisms that require the cooperation of many people to find them.
Beta intends to use a strict magic contract to limit the actions of these mercenaries, even if they see the wealth in the tomb, they are hindered by the magic contract, they can't do it casually, and the two sides break up afterwards and will not meet again, even if they are jealous that Beta has taken a lot of wealth, even if they hate and anger in their hearts, it doesn't matter.
Soon Beta selected a squad and pointed them over to the female teller.
The teller asked politely, "This team's station is not far from here, and they can be notified to come in about half an hour, is Beta waiting this morning, or will they go to your place to find you?" ”
"I'll wait here."
Beta smiled slightly, returned to her seat, and ordered a pot of fruit wine, tasting it slowly.
Jessica drank it too...... may be due to her young age, even if the coarse concentration of the fruit wine is not high, she also drinks it with a small blushing face, and she looks very cute.
THIS NATURALLY ATTRACTED SOME OF THE LOLI CONTROL'S ATTENTION, BUT THEY LOOKED AT BETA'S MAGIC ROBES AND TURNED OFF THE IDEA OF ACCOSTING OR TAKING ADVANTAGE.
A little more than half an hour later, six mercenaries came in from outside.
In fact, there are people coming in and out all the time, but these six mercenaries have a wolf-shaped coat of arms tattooed on their chests.
There are many mercenary squads that use wolves as team crests, but there are differences in color and posture.
The team walked up behind Beta after asking the female teller about the situation.
A middle-aged man who looked like a team leader walked up to Beta's table and asked kindly, "Is that your Excellency planning to hire us?" ”
The captain of the squad was not very strong, but his exposed skin and muscles looked very well-proportioned, and Beta knew from experience that this man was either a thief or an archer.
"It's me." Beta asked rhetorically, "Wolf Howl Mercenary Squad?" ”
"I'm Captain Duff, let's talk to the soundproof room on the second floor?"
Beta stood up: "No problem. ”
At this time, someone in the team suddenly said: "It's not cheap to hire our team, you must at least show your financial resources first." ”
"Captain Duff, this doesn't seem to be the rule of the mercenary union." Beta smirked.
Duff turned his head and shouted, "Shut up, it's not your turn to speak here." ”
