Chapter 153: Mercenary Groups and Reputation Recommendation
After a day's journey, Yang Hai and Kakuluchia came to the plains on the outskirts of the Stans Hills. Seeing that it was getting late, although they were not afraid to walk at night in the low-level strange area, such a trip would inevitably make people feel tired and boring.
So the two of them decided to spend the night in a small town on the plains called Blazing Blade Village.
The characters in the game don't need to sleep, and most of the players will pass the time at night with jade plate treasures and elixir jade dew, of course, if you can walk a few laps with your card friends in the tavern and chat while drinking, then life will be more comfortable. Of course, it's just a way of life, and you can also choose to go to the underground arena to watch the black fist, or go to the auction house to pick up leaks, or burn proficiency with materials like those players who focus on life professions.
In short, the Forgotten Continent has a rich nightlife for players.
The village of Blazing Blade is a neutral village located in the Stans Hills, with no national affiliation, and is a transit point for spontaneous hoarding of caravans. The Stans Hills are the territory of trolls and ogres, and if there are no supplies and resting grounds, it is too dangerous for caravans to cross the Stans Hills, and there are four or five towns like Blade Village, all of which are on the outer plains of the Stans Hills, and their main role is to ensure the supply of caravans.
This supply is not only food and water, but also information and the amount of armed power.
Yang Hai and Kakuluchia did not stop after entering the Burning Blade Village, they went directly to the tavern, found a remote corner and sat down, and ordered a large table of food and two barrels of beer.
The big boss was thinking about being a mercenary, and asked Yang Hai in a low voice: "I went to the forum to read the news of Burning Blade Village, the Stans Hills are not a good place to go, and it is a hard job to reach the Broken Sun Trail safely, and many caravans will seek help from mercenaries here." You say, when someone comes to hire us in a while, do we want to pretend to be B? It's not good to expose too strong strength, right? ”
Yang Hai scoffed at Kakuluchia's thoughts: "Don't be kidding. The players who run the broken day trail all the year round have joined the big mercenary guilds, and this kind of dangerous work is mainly for professional players, the credibility of the big mercenary group in the game, plus the credibility of the WGA in reality, double insurance can rest assured that the caravan can be assured. The two of us suddenly appeared here, which caravan owner would be assured to hire, and who knows if we are ogre's spies. ”
"The ogre will still look for spies?" Kakulucia's mouth opened in an O-shape.
Yang Hai didn't bother to answer this question, picked up the knife and fork and feasted on it.
The Sea Emperor Demon Pendant is still hanging on the ninth top of the overall list, and this limelight will not be able to disappear for a while, no matter what. PEOPLE ALL OVER THE CONTINENT KNOW THAT CAKULUCHIA AND POSEIDON ARE TOGETHER, AND THE COMBINATION OF A DRAGON VAULT DWELLER + A HUMAN ARCANE IS TOO DAZZLING.
Yang Hai's charm has been reduced to 0, easy to look like or something...... Forget it; Kakulucia has a very high charisma attribute, so it is easy to disguise herself as an elven mage, and she is not afraid of being seen through.
Dragon Vault Dweller + Elven Mage, this combination instantly disappeared from everyone. They have received very little attention along the way, and no one knows that the two people who pass by are the hottest duo in the currently forgotten continent.
In the middle of the tavern, a group of mercenaries were chatting and fartizing, and an uncle who looked old was telling a story to the people around him while he was drinking: "You want to talk." The dangers of this Stans Hill are not limited to the ogre robbers of the Troll Tribe River. There are also large herds of beasts in the hills, which can also pose a deadly threat to caravanserans. ”
As he spoke, the uncle took a big sip of beer. Hiccup.
A mercenary replied with a very eye-catching look: "Brother Anderson, you have been running the Broken Sun Trail since level 25, you must have dealt with a lot of fierce beasts, can you tell us about it?" ”
"The fiercest beast in this hill. It's the wolves. Anderson was so happy that he squinted his drunken eyes and said, "They are the most ferocious and cunning beasts in the world, and most of them don't know magic. Fragile and greedy, they fear death, but when a pack of wolves comes together and has a new leader, the mob becomes extremely dangerous. Their main source of food is other animals, but they also eat people, and wolves know how to gauge each other's strength, never attacking large caravans, but keeping an eye on a sparse army of adventurers.
After a burp, Anderson continued: "The wolves are usually scattered, and once one of them finds a prey worth hunting, it will whistling to lure its companion over. Wolves don't run fast, but they don't run slowly, they can run at a constant speed from the time the sun goes down until the sun rises the next day, and there is no animal in the Stans Hills that can run better than them, and if they are chasing people, man, they can only lie on the ground and gasp for breath after running for an hour.
"When chasing the prey, the wolves will not get too close to the prey, and even if they can catch up, they will apply pressure not far away, so that the prey panics and desperately flees, and they follow behind until the prey is exhausted, and then they swarm up. The wolf is not a ferocious beast, and compared to those felines, the wolf has a poor bite ability, and their bite ability is simply not enough to be fatal. One by one, the wolves pounce on their prey, each wolf bites on its prey until it is unable to move. After confirming that the prey has lost the ability to resist, the wolf king will come out, give the prey the last blow, and then start eating. Anderson took another big sip of beer: "No matter how powerful a person is, there is no way to encounter a wolf pack, unless the wolf attack cannot break the defense at all." Aside from ogres and trolls, these are the most dangerous creatures in the forest. ”
"But you said the wolves wouldn't attack the caravan."
"Yes, yes, the wolf is an animal that bullies the weak and fears the hard." Uncle Anderson yawned and said, "But if they are very hungry, in order to survive, they will have to attack the caravan." ”
Yang Hai and Kakuluchia looked at each other.
"Sounds like it's true, not like bragging." Kakuluchia said uncertainly.
"I wonder if the expulsion effect of dragon dung is useful?" Yang Hai thought for a moment: "If dragon dung can only scare the wolves, it is not enough to make them give up the chase...... In case the Wolf King has an anti-stealth spell that invalidates your secondary stealth spell...... You're dead. ”
"What am I going to die for? What about you? Kakuluchia asked rhetorically.
"I don't believe that the wolf king-level anti-stealth spell can see through my invisibility." Yang Hai said honestly: "Besides, the wolves can't outrun me, no matter how good their endurance is, it's useless, I can run in 10 seconds so that their shadows can't be seen." I can't do it, I can still hide in the belly of the temple Prado, that place you and the wolves can't get into. So...... If you encounter wolves, you don't seem to have much to do but wait for death. ”
Kakulucia was depressed and rummaged through the forums for news. Since becoming obsessed with the forum, the big boss has spent a lot of money on forum surfing software, and soon sorted out all the news about the wolf pack in the Stans Hills.
As it turned out, the uncle drunk named Anderson really didn't brag, and the wolves in the Stans Hills can be said to be notorious, because they didn't attack caravans very much, so they didn't make any big trouble, but few of the lone adventurers who encountered them survived. But in a sense, places like the Stans Hills aren't a lone ranger's paradise, they're a trade route. It takes team strength to get through the difficulties, and although it is a little miserable to die here alone, it is really normal.
"Let's find a caravan to follow." Kakuluchia lost his temper, he didn't have the confidence to deal with the wolves that pounced on him.
"I'll try." Yang Hai frowned: "It's a bit difficult for us to find a bodyguard job, mainly because we can't win people's trust." Let's eat first, and I'll go find out the news later. ”
Yang Hai walked to the front of the counter and knocked on the table, attracting the attention of the bartender.
"Dude. Where is the clerk of the Mercenary Guild here? I'd like to talk to him. Yang Hai said.
"I'm the clerk here, what do you want me to do?"
The bartender is a lean human with a thin beard, a pointed chin, and pointed eyes, revealing a cunning. He heard Yang Hai's question. Without looking up, he continued to do his own thing - poured a handful of chopped lemons into the spirits.
Yang Hai showed a look of surprise, the bartender seemed to understand his expression, and said softly: "Which clerk is willing to go to this remote and dangerous place." After the development of a shipping line centered on the clockwork coast. Everyone is less willing to walk the Broken Day Trail, and the ogres and trolls have no livelihood and gradually start attacking the village. No clerk wants to come here. The Mercenary Guild had to find a local to do it for them - straight boy, what are you looking for me for? ”
"I want to set up a mercenary group," Yang Hai said thoughtfully, "How long will it take?" What are the formalities? Can I get a reputable recommendation from the Mercenary Guild? ”
Yang Hai said this, and the clerk who worked part-time as a bartender raised his head to look at him.
"Forming a mercenary group is no joke." The bartender stared into Yang Hai's eyes: "If you just want to run a mission temporarily, I advise you to join another mercenary group." ”
Yang Hai sighed in his heart, this bartender was too shrewd, he didn't reveal any information, but the bartender could guess that he was running a task temporarily. This guy definitely has tasks on him, and it's definitely not a small task, but it's a pity that he has no interest in taking on these tasks.
"Joining other mercenary groups requires a public identity." Yang Hai lowered his voice: "My brother and I are not very convenient in terms of identity. ”
"So you have to set up your own mercenary group, and you also want to get a credible recommendation from the Mercenary Guild." The bartender nodded in understanding: "Here are some rules and regulations, see for yourself." ”
As he spoke, the bartender took out a thin booklet stained with grease from under the table and stuffed it into Yang Hai's hand.
With the ability to read through the documents of a polymath, Yang Hai memorized the information after scanning it. The conditions for forming a mercenary group are very simple, either you can complete more than 20 B-level missions as an independent mercenary, or you can have a reputation of reverence or above in any large force on the mainland, and pay a deposit of 1,000 gold coins. The conditions for obtaining the mercenary group's reputation recommendation are slightly more difficult, and the reputation recommendation represents the unconditional trust of the mercenary guild, if the mercenary has caused the employer's loss because of his own responsibility, then the mercenary guild is responsible for compensation.
The criteria for applying for a credit referral are one of three options.
1. Complete 10 S-level delegations
2. The prestige of the mainland is more than 20,000, and the prestige reaches the cult among the three main forces of the mainland
3. Received a joint recommendation from more than 3 S-class mercenary group leaders
"I suppose the Mercenary Guild will keep the applicant's information confidential, right?" Yang Hai asked, he knew that he had asked a nonsense, but in order to avoid trouble, he was a little cautious.
"Yes." The bartender said, "So? ”
"MY NAME IS POSEIDON." Yang Hai signed a check from the gem bank with 1,000 gold coins written on it, and handed it to the bartender: "I want to set up my own mercenary group and apply for a credit recommendation, please help me fill out the application." (To be continued......)
