The small town of Salaka is built along the river and set against the backdrop of vast hilly grasslands, where the inhabitants are equally hospicing and fishing, and a small number of farmers tending to their crops outside the town. Seeing a scattered but large procession driving into the town, people smiled with satisfaction: so many outsiders, even if they were just passing through Saraka, the cost of food and lodging and the cost of crossing the river at the end of the day could make the town lively for days. Some people began to assign their children to rush home, telling their wives that they could take out the food, wine, and furs that had been stored in the house for a long time and sell them at a stall in the hope of exchanging them for a few gold coins.

The design of the houses here still retains the medieval architectural style, and the slum dwellings are mostly built in the dry barricade style, while the adobe houses are mostly workshops, shops or residences of the wealthy. Dozens of locals dressed in festive costumes were standing at an intersection to watch, when they saw a large group of people coming, the leader waved his hand, the drums sounded, and these people stepped on the drums and sang and danced to meet them.

Lulai, Blessa, and Muwanja are not natives, but they are also natives of Dark Dawn, and they know that this is the common way for the locals to welcome guests. Mu Wanjia almost ran to the front - he took it for granted that these people were here to welcome him. The soldiers are strong and strong, accounting for half of the entire team, and receiving high-level courtesy from any native is a must! Seeing that Lulai and Blessa were still calmly following Baron Twilight, this guy had to slow down and pretend to be reserved and run shoulder to shoulder with Baron.

The welcoming crowd was organized by the local mayor. When he came face to face with the visitor, the mayor of the town excitedly stopped the band behind him: "Guests from afar, which of you is the honorable Baron Twilight?" ”

Baron Ennigu Marsh jumped off his horse and directly took his mount away from Mu Wanjia to greet him: "Lord Town, I am Twilight from Twilight. Orange. Look at your posture, are you here to greet me? ”

The mayor of the town spread his hands and saluted: "Lord Baron, I dare not let you call me 'Your Excellency'!" You are a guest from afar, a baron of honorable status, and a hero who swept away the ogre Amin for the people of Kenny! Even an ordinary marquis doesn't deserve such a grand courtesy—it's just you! You may not know it, but Saraka is a place that has been ravaged by Amin! ”

It was not too much for the people of Saraka to give the baron such courtesy, but the baron still felt that he could not bear it: "Thank you for your kindness, but what my brothers and I have done is a responsibility that a warrior with sufficient strength should take the initiative to bear, and it is not worth everyone's enthusiasm like this." Xiao Man, give each of them a gold coin to thank you and ask them to go back! ”

A gold coin does the opposite. The daily income of these people is in silver coins. Now that I have a gold coin, I am even more motivated to carry out the welcome ceremony to the end.

Unable to dissuade him, the baron and the three leaders of the Uda mercenary group were sent to Saraka's town office by Song and Dance.

Seeing that the scale of the building of the town hall was not large, Boss Su was not sure if he could hold a 'martial arts conference' in it, so he had to ask the town mayor: "My lord, I want to use your place to hold a meeting, I don't know how many people your town hall can accommodate?" ”

The mayor smiled: "Don't look at the appearance of the mansion, it can accommodate at least more than 300 adults in the town to discuss together!" ”

That's easy to do. The baron turned and pressed his hands, and the drumming stopped: "Thank you very much for your warm and unrestrained welcome song and dance." Now, I need to discuss things with my followers, my fellow travelers. Please ......" He casually took the big hand of a fat woman beside him: "Please ask this aunt to lead everyone to prepare food for us." The standard of one gold coin per person, don't prepare good wine, we are always ready to fight! Please ask all the mercenaries to enter the town hall with me and discuss the specifics of this mission. I have commissioned local beauties to prepare food for everyone. Given that we are in a state of readiness at the moment, those who want to accept this mission are not allowed to drink alcohol. The dining standard of one gold coin per person can be taken away if you can't finish eating. If you want to learn about this mission with the captain, you can come in and have a meeting together. Those who are too lazy to discuss and listen to the command of their captain can go around Salaka, shop, repair, but do not make trouble! ”

In the town office, the 'white-robed guest' was already sitting upright and waiting for everyone. Baron Twilight sat on the left side of the white-robed guest, and the mayor sat on the right, and the baron introduced everyone to the scene: "This white-robed guest, everyone must know his identity. He will not be involved in anything other than the financial reward of being willing to help me endorse this mission. I won't say more. This is the mayor of Saraka, and we will get enough supplies from Saraka. ”

Seven Swords Mercenary Group: Ten people. The rank is between forty-eight and fifty. The actual publisher of this mission and the organizer of the Seven Swords Mercenary Alliance. Baron Twilight, the leader of the Seven Swords Mercenary Regiment, divides this mission into two phases. In the first stage, an alliance was formed between the aboriginal mercenary group and the Seven Swords mercenary group, and the Seven Swords adventurers rushed to the treasure location and picked up the treasure hidden by Amin; In the second stage, everyone divides the treasure according to the agreement, and the aboriginal mercenary group brings back to Uda the wealth that should be given to the people of Uda in the agreement and gives it to the king of Uda.

Lulai: The leader of the Lulai mercenary group. There are a total of twelve people under his command, all of whom are at the level of elite warriors, and their levels are all fifty-five. It has been confirmed that he will participate in this mission.

Blessa: The leader of the Blesa Mercenary Regiment, with a total of thirty-two men. There are thirty warriors at level 55, one cook at level 50, and one coachman at level 50. Participation in the mission has been confirmed.

Mu Wanjia: The leader of the Mu Wanjia mercenary group. There are 45 warriors of level 55, 3 magicians of level 55, two cooks of level 50, and one chariot groom. It is uncertain whether they will participate in this mission.

The mission released by Kim Lud is to offer a bounty on the conscription of Uda warriors to help someone search for the treasure hidden by the ogre Amin. However, he himself did not participate, and only provided financial endorsement to Baron Twilight: "I will not ask for the specific details of this mission." All I promise is that Baron Twilight will pay you what you agreed upon. If he can't do it, then I will pay everyone for it. ”

"My mission is to receive and settle Baron Twilight and his warriors, and to prepare the necessary supplies for them. This is the task given to me by my master, the Tumen Witch Doctor. The master told me to obey the baron's arrangement! His own pharmacy will provide all kinds of potions to everyone involved in this mission at an affordable price. Mayor Marew looked around at the many Uda natives in front of him: "As for the mercenary group recruited by the Baron, if they are not willing to cooperate with Baron Twilight to carry out the mission issued by the Baron, the town of Salaka will still entertain everyone as a guest, but for those who sabotage and obstruct the Baron's mission, Kenny's Witch Doctor Guild will put him on the list of persona non grata!" ”

Lu Lai preemptively attacked: "I myself am very happy to carry out this task. If you don't give money, I'm willing! But I myself have doubts about Baron Twilight's ability to be the commander of the Alliance. I reserve the right to opt out. In addition to the conditions agreed above, I would like to add a requirement for employers: the employer, Twilight. Baron Orange, I must show sufficient leadership skills to be able to join this mission with certainty. ”

This attitude was something that Blessa did not expect. At this time, he felt that Lu Lai's request was very reasonable: "I agree with Lu Lai's request. My mercenary group and I will advance and retreat with the Lulai mercenary group on this trip. Therefore, whether my people accept this mission or not depends on the strength of Baron Twilight. ”

Without waiting for Mu Wanjia to speak, Baron Twilight spoke first: "Please rest assured about this, the two captains. I personally have absolute confidence in this. I will lead by example in the mission, and I will treat every mercenary who participates in the mission fairly, regardless of failure or success. But I will never allow anything to go back on its word and not keep its word in the alliance. Anyone can quit as long as it's before the battle starts! However, I will never allow the existence of people and things in the team who do not obey orders and act recklessly. If anyone goes beyond the agreed terms, I will expel him immediately! If the mission fails because of this kind of person's misdeeds, I will ask this white-robed guest to administer justice! ”

Mu Wanjia had lost his way out at this time. Aside from obedience as a prayer, he had one last option left to challenge Baron Twilight's authority: "The conditions given by His Excellency Baron can be said to be open, transparent, fair and just. These demands and agreements have even been biased to the side of our Uda fighters. But on the grassland, the fittest survive; Among all things, the strong have the right to dominate everything. Baron Twilight is the discoverer of the treasure and the initiator of the mission, but with all due respect, your strength is too low. I can't put the lives of more than fifty of my brothers in the hands of someone who is not as strong as me. I agree to your terms, but please prove your strength to me! ”

The white-robed guest spoke up again: "Whether it is an individual or a team, strength comes from three aspects. Overall strength, intelligence, fighting art. In terms of overall strength, Baron Twilight's team has the smallest number and the weakest strength. He has promised to strengthen rapidly. Baron, you can tell you how much your team will be stronger, so that your teammates can rest assured. ”

The baron laughed, "My strength comes from some adventurers. I don't know the exact number, but there are no fewer than Blessa's team. The time will be within three days. ”

White-robed guest: "As for wisdom - I don't know what you think, I think it's a more important ability than intelligence. But intelligence is the basis of wisdom, I know very well and am willing to endorse it, the baron's intelligence is much better than that of Muwanjia! Mu Wanjia, do you have any questions about my judgment? ”

Mu Wanjia was annoyed, but he still didn't dare to show it on his face: "I think your judgment is correct." But neither intelligence nor wisdom is enough to prove that a person has the fighting art to win! ”

"You're right. So you tell me, twelve adventurers with an average level of less than fifty can defeat a team of more than fifty led by the brutal Ah Ming - this kind of behavior, is this a very clever fighting art? ”
