815 Having trouble finding the master
It is normal for the mercenary world to be unsuccessful in recruitment, although it is a pity, but it is not a big deal.
They were just surprised that Jessica's reason for refusal was that she wanted to warm the bed for her master. They felt that this ideal was really a bit 'humiliating', how to say that Jessica was also an elite-level assassin, among the mercenaries, her strength was considered to be in the middle and upper rank, and she was still so young, it was a sure thing to become a master in the future.
A future master who only wants to be a personal maid is really unambitious.
"You shouldn't just think about being a servant for the nobles." The mercenary advised: "Your future is bright, you don't need to grovel. ”
Although most of the mercenaries were looked down upon by the nobles, considering them a symbol of rudeness and barbarism.
But discrimination is on both sides, and the mercenaries are looking directly at the nobles.
Privately, they think they're all waste, and they just have a good tire.
This is the status quo of nobles and mercenaries, discriminating against each other, but in their hearts, they envy each other.
The nobles envy the freedom and strength of the mercenaries, and the mercenaries want to have the status of nobles and a comfortable life.
Hearing the mercenary's words, Jessica was stunned for a moment, and then said: "But the master picked me up from the street, and it was the master who taught me to read, and it was the master who gave me life, and even my current strength was given by the master, why can't I become his maid?" ”
This...... Can you still give this thing strength?
Didn't the pros rely on their own hard training and then awaken on their own?
Sensing the point of Jessica's words keenly, the middle-aged mercenary asked with some surprise: "You said, your strength was given by your master?" ”
Jessica nodded repeatedly.
Rooney felt that it was inappropriate for Jessica to say this, but when he thought about it, he seemed to feel that there was nothing, so he didn't stop it.
"What about you?"
Kelissa didn't speak, and neither did Rooney.
"It's all given by the owner, Kelissa was originally just an eldest lady." Jessica ate the barbecue and said quietly: "The master's ability is not something that we ordinary people can imagine. ”
Jessica's voice was soft, her eyes reflecting the red of the flames, and she looked at Mori Han.
Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, the four mercenaries all felt that their scalps were a little numb.
But then Jessica smiled: "But the master has a good heart, as long as he doesn't make him really angry, he will never make a move on others." ”
With this smile, the four mercenaries felt that the cold aura just now disappeared.
The middle-aged mercenary's hand gently let go of the hilt of the sword in his hand, just now he almost couldn't hold the pressure, and he was about to pull the sword to defend himself.
After such a small episode, they no longer mentioned the matter of letting the three of them join the team.
However, Jessica's words set off huge waves in their hearts.
They know very well how much they have suffered in order to become professionals, but now, there is a way for people to become professionals directly.
It's no wonder that Rooney and Kelissa look more like Childe and Miss, especially Kelissa, who doesn't have the feeling of being trained hard to become a professional.
When they had eaten their dry rations and had assigned their alternate vigils, they rested.
At dawn the next day, everyone had eaten a breakfast of dry food, and after resting for a while, they were ready to go down to the ruins again to explore again.
It went well at first, after all, they knew what traps they had been exploring and what traps they had, and when they went down to a hole in the ground that looked like an altar and many black coffins in South Park, they felt that something was wrong.
There were white bones on the altar, and the mercenary walked over with a torch, looked at it for a while, and said, "It's a woman who died by a short blade." ”
She pulled a dagger out of the chest of her skeleton.
The dagger was still as fresh as it had been made, with a small emerald embedded in the hilt.
"It's a magic weapon." The mercenary exclaimed in surprise, "If you sell it, it should be worth at least a few gold coins." ”
The price of any magic weapon usually costs dozens of gold coins, but when you buy it, it's another matter. As long as anyone with a little experience knows, all weapons are recycled, at least more than 60% of the price will be lost.
The point of the black heart, one percent is normal.
Everyone was a little surprised, except Jessica.
She is not so interested in money, but curious about the odd.
The black coffin was neatly placed in the hole in the wall, densely packed, like a bee chrysalis in a beehive.
She tried to open a few black coffins, and found that most of the corpses inside had been ossified, but a few of them seemed to be still in their original appearance, but they had no moisture and looked a little shriveled.
"It's weird."
At this time, another man's voice came from the side.
"Come on, there's a big deal here."
The crowd approached and found that there was a strange ritual platform on the innermost cave wall, about the height of a normal man, and a huge snake statue hovered upward.
And in the snake's mouth at the very part, there is a large pale green gem.
The gem was at least about the size of a leather ball.
In the bright light of the torches, through the gap in the snake's mouth, you can see the gems reflecting a trace of green crystals, dazzling.
"It's a real fortune."
Everyone was almost rendered in the light of the gem, and Jessica leaped over a few times, climbed onto the stone carved snake body, and soon stood on the head of the snake.
She reached out to pull the gem out, but found that the snake's mouth had safely jammed the gem.
She didn't give up and poked the dagger a few times, only a few sparks splashed.
"The stone is very hard, it can't be opened by regular means, there may be some mechanism."
Jessica leaps down from the snake's head.
The mercenary took a moment on the altar with a torch and said, "There's a hole here, like a keyhole. ”
A few people leaned over, and the middle-aged mercenary looked at it for a while and said, "It seems to be in the shape of a short blade." ”
Everyone was stunned, and the female mercenary took out the magic short blade from her backpack, gestured for it, and said in surprise: "It seems to be this thing." ”
"To put it in or not?"
The mercenary looked at the crowd around her and asked.
Rooney looked at it for a while and said, "There is text written on the ritual table, I think it is better to crack it and talk about it, after all, we have been tasked with exploring this area." ”
"But if it is reported to the union, this gem will not have our share."
When Rooney heard this, he also felt that there was some truth. This emerald sells well and is so big that it can definitely sell for hundreds of gold coins.
If it's a magical material, it's worth more.
"Why don't you let the master come and show us it?" Jessica suddenly said, "The master can read everything, and if he comes here, he must know whether we should open this ceremony table or not." Besides, the owner is very rich, he definitely doesn't like this thing, and he won't rob it from you. ”
