Game of the World Tree

Chapter 315 Mercenary Group

In February, the sun is shining.

The winter has gradually come to an end. Although the cold wind is still biting, the coldest period of the year has passed, and the branches of the trees have faintly seen growing leaf buds.

Frontier Collar, Maple Leaf City.

The rebuilding work after the day of wrath continues.

It stands to reason that, due to various circumstances, the originally planned auction was eventually aborted due to various reasons. In this case, Maple Leaf City should be left alone for a while, but the fact is the opposite.

The whole city seemed to be more lively, the bars on the streets and alleys were full of mercenaries, and tents were set up in the open space outside the city.

It belongs to each mercenary.

These mercenaries came one after another after hearing the black dragon hunting mission issued by the border uncle.

300,000 pounds in gold...

For any mercenary group, this is not a small number.

This reward is enough to attract any professional below the high level to participate.

Standing on the city wall of Maple Leaf City and looking out, you can see that there are thousands of tents in the open space. According to a rough estimate, the number of mercenaries participating in this mission is probably more than 5,000.

It can be said that almost all the active mercenaries in the Maple Leaf Collar and the surrounding area have arrived.

And it was the influx of these mercenaries that made the caravans who were planning to return home because of the aborted auction to see business opportunities again.

The existence of mercenaries is very active in the Continent of Saigus.

At least they have dozens of people as a group, and many thousands of people as an organization. In peacetime, they rely on various mercenary tasks or hunt for monsters to make a living. In wartime, they will change their bodies and accept the employment of noble lords and become a mercenary army. .

Of course, many mercenaries sometimes make cameos as robbers or bandits, and eat some poor unfortunate guys.

It can be said that this is a high-risk, high-reward gray career in the world of Seggs.

Many mercenaries are professionals, and they are apprentices no matter how poor. Although their income is unstable, once they complete a task, they will have a lot of money in their accounts.

And most mercenaries, after getting the commission, will choose to consume it as soon as possible.

After all... This profession is also a high-risk profession. In the world of Saigas with extraordinary power, the mortality rate of mercenaries is even higher than that of professional armies in human countries. It is almost common knowledge for everyone to spend money.

Unless they are old and unable to work, they will save a sum of gold pounds to support their retirement in the last few years of their experience and stamina. The mercenaries hardly save any money.

Therefore, for the caravans, where the mercenaries gather, there are infinite business opportunities.

At this time, many caravans that came to Maple Leaf City were very grateful to the black dragon who was said to be extremely evil and had never been masked.

The major caravans are all active in the mercenary camp, selling their own goods and making a fortune.

Of course, the Amway Firm, which had settled in Maple Leaf City not long ago, also joined the feast. Some of the cheap and exquisite second-hand equipment they sold was very popular among mercenaries.

The people of this chamber of commerce have a friendly attitude, speak nicely, and the goods are cheap. They soon became one with the mercenaries and talked about everything.

At this moment, at the city gate of Maple Leaf City, several figures, either in armor or in housekeeper uniforms, are gathering to discuss something.

"Your Excellency Cairns, Ms. Cynthia, this time the task of hunting the black dragon is up to you. If it weren't for the fact that the Count was busy killing the cult members who were active in the territory recently, he would definitely bring the White Maple Knight with him."

The speaker was an old man dressed as a butler, who was Uncle Border's big butler. At this moment, he looked at a man and a woman in front of him with a sincere expression.

"Don't worry, I guarantee by the reputation of the Britta mercenary group that we will successfully complete the lord's commission and capture the evil black dragon alive."

Said the armored male warrior standing opposite the old butler.

He was tall and strong, with a beard and a large shield on his back, with a hint of arrogance and pride in his eyes.

Cairns Bretta, he is the head of the Bretta mercenary group, a silver shield warrior.

Because it is on the border, there are many mercenary groups active in Maple Leaf Collar and its surroundings.

The Britta mercenary group is the largest mercenary group active on the border. There are more than 3,000 people in the whole group, and there are only seven people who have reached the silver level!

Not to mention, the head of the group, Cairns Britta himself, has the strength of the silver top!

It can be said that this mercenary group accounts for three-fifths of the number of mercenaries attracted here.

"Hehe, our owl mercenary group will also cooperate with Lord Cairns."

After Keynes finished speaking, an enchanting female voice came from beside him.

It was a female warrior who looked about thirty years old, dressed in a coquettish manner.

She was wearing bold and revealing clothes, light armor, and a bow on her back. She was standing beside Cairns, and she kept winking at him.

Cynthia Baring.

She is the head of the owl mercenary group, and the owl mercenary group is also the second largest mercenary group in the surrounding area after the Breta mercenary group.

There are more than 1,500 people in their group, and there are 3 strong people who have reached the silver rank. They are far behind the crocodile mercenary group ranked third in the maple leaf collar.

And Cynthia herself is a silver stalker.

This time, the task of hunting black dragons attracted the two major mercenary groups that were active around Maple Leaf Collar.

They are the main force of hunting black dragons this time!

The reason why so many mercenaries can be gathered is because everyone knows that every giant dragon that builds a nest, even if it is an underage black dragon, cannot be viewed from the perspective of a black dragon alone.

Dragons are keen to raise some relatives or vassal races to protect their lair or serve themselves.

And to encircle and suppress the giant dragon, it is not only the dragon itself, but also its dependent races.

So...a certain number of people is necessary.

The wealth symbolized by the dragon, the dependent race of the dragon is also a fat sheep.

If you can successfully hunt black dragons, you will not only get huge profits, but also greatly enhance the reputation of the mercenary group.

Of course... Bianjie said that he didn't want the property of Heilong, which was also the basis for the two mercenary groups that usually disliked each other to decide to cooperate.

As far as any of their mercenary groups is concerned, it is enough to fight against a black dragon that has reached the upper level of silver.

However, if the two mercenary groups add up, there is great hope.

In addition to the two major mercenary groups, there are some scattered mercenaries and bounty hunters.

They also followed the team, intending to get a piece of the pie in the process of hunting the black dragon.

These people do not ask for the reward of hunting black dragons, as long as they earn a fortune in the process of encircling and suppressing the subordinate races of giant dragons, they are very satisfied.

Seeing the statements of the heads of the two mercenary regiments, the old butler was very satisfied. He beckoned, and dozens of hooded and suspected mages walked out of the city.

"Hehe, although Lord Earl cannot participate in this operation, he will send some mages from our Maple Leaf Mage Group to follow you. They are all powerful black iron mages who are very good at healing and may be able to help you in your actions. Bundle."

The old butler said with a smile.

The heads of the two mercenary regiments listened, and their eyes lit up.

A mage who is good at healing is quite rare!

Not to mention, the mercenary group is very short of spellcasters.

And these dozens of mages who are good at healing will undoubtedly reduce the casualties of this operation.

It can be said that they are very satisfied with the support of Uncle Border.

"Then thank the Count."

The two regiments bowed slightly.

"This is what we should do, I wish you two successful hunting!"

The old butler said with a smile.

The two sides chatted for a while and then left.

The preliminary work is almost done. For this hunting mission, they have rested in Maple Leaf City for three whole days.
