After getting the specific information of the two magic items, Henry directly returned them all to the drunken son of Baal: "Not bad things, although there are not too many magic protection attributes, but it should be enough for Minsk, who likes to charge." As for this crossbow, you can use it too, and if you find the right opportunity to shoot an arrow in battle, it may have an unexpected effect. ”

He'd already picked up enough treasures on this trip that he couldn't look down on these ordinary magical items anymore, and it was better to give them to those who needed them than to throw them in the warehouse and put them moldy.

"Hehe, in that case, I'm welcome." Aberdell didn't talk nonsense, he pinned the cross bow directly to his waist, then grabbed the stag armor and walked towards Minsk. Soon, the two of them got together to talk and laugh, and drank very heartily.

Seeing everyone singing and dancing around the campfire, Henry couldn't help but smile and shake his head, and hooked his finger at Jalaso, who was sitting next to him. The mercenary leader immediately understood a hint of this, walked over quietly, sat down slowly, and asked in a low voice, "What, your matter is finished?" ”

"That's right, it's time to talk about my cooperation with you." After saying that, Henry raised his head and looked into the other party's eyes. He was still a little hesitant to entrust such an important task to the cunning and fickle guy in front of him, because it involved not only the bloodletting plans of the dark girl Elistra and the conspiracy god Viren, but also the trading base he was preparing to establish.

"Say, our Dayette Independent Mercenary Regiment undertakes all kinds of tasks, provided that you are fully paid." Jalaso could also see at this moment that the powerful human in front of him did not intend to care about his stealing. Instead, there are more important things.

Henry knows. As the leader of a mercenary group. This guy doesn't have any specific position and doesn't mind helping outsiders deal with his own people, so he usually only considers the following two points when picking up a job:

First, whether the remuneration is good. After all, it is very expensive to raise such a large mercenary group, eating, drinking, lodging, armor, weapons, potions, magic scrolls, all of which require a large amount of gold, plus the high salaries that must be paid to the internal members, once you can't find a customer for a long time. Then there is a high probability that it is on the verge of bankruptcy.

Second, the danger of commissioning. The Dayette Independent Mercenary Regiment was originally outcasts by the Dark Elf Society, so survival always comes first. If they find that the mission is likely to lead to a significant reduction in personnel, or even a group annihilation, then they will not hesitate to give up, even if it is useless to offer a sky-high price.

It is with these two principles that the entire organization has been able to grow over the course of hundreds of years, with spies planted in almost all of the Dark Elf cities. With a well-developed intelligence network, they can repeatedly succeed in a complex environment, making the roots of the teeth of those calculated masters and mothers itch. But there was no way around it.

But the only thing that gave him a bit of a headache was the personality of Jalaso, the mercenary leader who really liked to defect on the spot. As long as someone can offer a higher price, then he definitely doesn't mind killing his employer.

The shrewd and cunning Jalaso saw Henry's concern at a glance, and suddenly cracked his mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "My friend, you seem to have some doubts about our credibility? ”

"Reputation?" Henry couldn't help it, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch a few times. "I'm sorry, I really didn't know that your mercenary group still had credibility."

"Aha, it seems that you have heard some rumors, so you don't have a good impression of us. It's okay, I can explain slowly, but before that, please tell me about the content and reward of this mission, I need to make the following assessment. As he spoke, Jalaso raised his hand and gently touched his smooth chin.

Although Henry didn't trust the mercenary leader in front of him, he couldn't find a more suitable partner for a while, so he had to sigh slightly and explain: "It's very simple, first of all, I need you to spread the story of the dark girl Elistry in all the dark elf cities to attract those dark elves who yearn for goodness. Secondly, I'm going to build an underground city near the surface entrance for trading, and I also need your help to spread the word, even if I can introduce a few caravans. As for the remuneration, there is no need to worry at all, I can provide you with whatever you want. ”

After listening to the request, Jalaso lowered his head and muttered to himself: "Don't you need to fight?" It doesn't seem to be very dangerous......"

"If I take on this task, will you be able to give us a rightful place in this new city?" He rolled his eyes and immediately proposed a new condition.

I have to say that this makes Henry a little embarrassed, because the Dayette Independent Mercenary Group is definitely a time bomb, and it may explode at any time. But given the role these guys were going to play, he had to make some compromises.

"In principle, yes, but there are a few prerequisites. First, it is forbidden to meddle in politics. Second, the law must be strictly adhered to and taxes must be paid in accordance with the regulations. Thirdly, each movement of more than 50 people must be reported to the City Hall. If you can agree with all three of the above, then there is no problem. Ugly words are ahead, if I find out that you are making small moves in secret, the consequences will definitely be very strict. ”

"Hah! Rest assured on that note, I don't want to be hunted down by a legendary spellcaster who is strong enough to stand up to the gods. Jalaso laughed to himself.

Henry didn't take this verbal assurance to heart at all, and just smiled lightly: "I hope so." So you're on this task? ”

Jalaso nodded without hesitation: "Yes, I took it on behalf of the Dayette Independent Mercenary Regiment." You'd better pay a little gold though, I've been running out of money lately. ”

"How so? Didn't I just give you a bunch of weapons and armor the other day? Have you been robbed? Henry had a puzzled look on his face.

"Don't mention it, it's unlucky. My people had an accident on the way, and they were swept away by a group of earth elementals who ran out of nowhere, and almost all the trucks were pushed down the abyss, otherwise I wouldn't have taken people to steal. ”

As soon as I mentioned it. Jalaso immediately expressed his irritability. Dark elf slang kept popping out of that mouth. Obviously. He was very annoyed by this heavy loss, and he was not able to get back on the field. Because the earth element is not only very strong in combat, but the most important thing is that there is nothing valuable at all except for stones and clods of soil all over the body, and it is not worth launching a retaliatory action at all.

Looking at the mercenary leader who poured bitter water in front of him, Henry directly took out two bags of fine pearls: "Here, then go, just take it as a deposit." I think this thing will sell for a good price in the Dark Elf City. Other than that. You can help me keep an eye on the gray dwarf caravans in this area, and if I come across a guy named Carrig, give him this letter. ”

"Of course, it's a trifle." As he spoke, Jalaso opened the bag and immediately let out a burst of exclamation. "Wow! The finest deep-sea pearls, look at this color and this halo, what a group of cute little treasures. ”

He gently fiddled with the precious jewels in the bag, his eyes inadvertently revealing a hint of greed.

"Finally, I would like to warn you, don't think about running away after taking the deposit, because no matter how far you go. I can find you out, too. After saying that, a murderous aura emanated from Henry's body, and then quickly disappeared.

As a superior. He knew very well how to get this cunning creature to move, nothing more than a turnip and a stick. Now that the turnips have been given, it's time to give a stick, and the provincial Jalaso has a crooked mind again.

The mercenary leader was frightened by the fleeting killing intent, and hurriedly stood up and bowed gracefully: "Please rest assured, our Dayette Independent Mercenary Group has a good reputation, and we will strictly abide by the contract, and you will see the effect in three months at most." ”

"I hope so, I'll look forward to it, you can leave with your men now." With that, Henry glanced at Anteleb, who immediately released the enclosed Dark Elf mercenaries and returned all the weapons.

In just a few minutes, Jalaso quickly disappeared into the dark region with all the members of the mercenary group. As soon as they left, Anteleb leaned in and whispered, "Are you sure they won't sell this information to the rulers of other dark elf cities?" ”

"What if you sell it? Most of the dark elves don't even know the name of the dark maiden Elisetsu, let alone the followers who are looking for her. As for the new city built underground, it itself is right next to the entrance, ready for surface support, even if the dark elves gather an army to attack, and my magic is not vegetarian. After saying that, a sneer crossed Henry's face.

It can be said that he never really trusted Jalaso from the beginning, and he didn't reveal even the slightest plan from beginning to end, just that the other party used it as a knife, and if the knife was disobedient, then just throw it away.

After hearing this, Anteleb immediately felt his whole body stiffen, a cool breath rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his eyes were full of awe.

It's horrible!

Is this the wisdom of a legendary mage?

He couldn't help but ask himself this in his heart, and at the same time think about what to do if he encountered such an enemy? Maybe suicide is the best option......

As a dark elf who is not too good, Anteleb suddenly felt that he was really very lucky, not only did he not die on the ruins of the city of Ariedrin, but also invested early in becoming a leader under Robert's gate, and as long as he returned to the surface safely, he could become a real nobleman, and with the small treasury saved, he could live the rest of his life comfortably.

The thought of being able to walk the streets in the open and never have to hide anymore thrilled Antlebe. Without hesitation, he knelt down on one knee and made a very solemn bowing: "In my mind, you are the greatest human being in this world, please allow me to sacrifice my loyalty and become a lowly servant." ”

"Oh? Are you paying allegiance to me? Henry asked with a slight pause and a smile.

"Yes, I wish to live forever under your protection, and swear never to disobey your orders." Without any hesitation, Anteleb directly said what he wished from the bottom of his heart. He knew very well that he needed a strong support, otherwise he would one day be captured by the hunting party of the dark elves and sacrificed alive...... (To be continued......)
