Chapter 531: The King of Heaven
Chapter 531: Heavenly King
Scott was stunned by his reaction and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"
"You...you said you encountered the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' and...you asked them to save it?" The man's voice began to stutter.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Scott was confused now, especially when he saw the people around him looking at him with strange eyes.
"Oh my God, you are not fooling me, how could you see the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group'? To be honest..." The man seemed to be tortured and forced to confess.
"Do you know the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group'?" Scott stared at him blankly.
"What stupid things do you say? Ask everyone present, who doesn't know the name of "Piaomiao Mercenary Group"!" the man said angrily.
"No, the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' is so famous? That's why... why haven't I ever heard of it?" Scott was confused.
"You really haven't heard of it? How many months have you been trapped in the 'Green Valley'?" The man stared at Scott with a serious expression.
Scoot nodded.
"If this is the case, then it will be easy to explain." The man paused for a moment and continued, "This 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' was only famous in recent times. Almost no mercenary didn't know about it!"
After saying that, he looked at Scott with a look of freaks.
"No wonder they are so powerful!" Scott murmured to himself.
"Hey, Scott, have you really seen the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group'? What do they look like? Are there really so powerful rumors?" the man asked with his eyes shining.
But he didn't notice that as soon as he asked, all the mercenaries around him raised their ears. It seemed that everyone wanted to know this question.
Scott felt the pressure brought to him by those expectant eyes. He never thought that he would be noticed for a day. After a long time, he said: "They are generally young, and there are many beautiful women among them...their strength is indeed very strong..."
Scott could only think while commenting on Zhong Shenxiu and others. Although he had just separated for a while, he found that his understanding of the "Piaomiao Mercenary Group" was limited to the surface.
"How powerful are they? Let's talk more about it!" The man stretched his head slightly towards Scott's position.
"They can kill the demon insects like a hill with one knife!" Scott replied, and the scene of Charlotte's knife slashing Heiro again appeared in his mind.
"Scott, how many of them have, their identities, and their unique skills..." The man asked a series of questions again, and simply sat next to Scott.
Scott did not answer, but asked back: "Don't you know the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group', why do you still ask me these questions?"
"I just heard of it, and I have limited knowledge..." Before the man could finish his words, seven or eight mercenaries came over.
"Excuse me, if you don't mind, we also want to hear information about the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group'!" One of them said friendly.
Skao nodded, feeling like he became a storyteller.
It doesn't matter if he nodded, but he suddenly surrounded a group of people and shouted: "We also want to know, let's talk to us!"
What made Scott speechless was that among these big men, there were several waitresses looking at him with anticipation.
Damn, why is this "Piaomiao Mercenary Group" so charming? What exactly makes these people so obsessed?
With doubts, Scott said what he knew about the "Piaomiao Mercenary Group". These are all irrelevant. Even if these people know, they will not violate the privacy rights of the "Piaomiao Mercenary Group".
Everyone seemed to be fascinated by the sound of hearing it, and the surroundings were quiet, and they could even hear each other's breathing.
"That... can I ask how this 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' is famous? The mercenary group is not very high, so how did you hear about it?" Scott asked about the curiosity in his heart.
Seeing everyone looking at themselves with a puzzled look, Scott quickly added: "I was trapped in the 'Grievous Valley' for several months and don't know much about the outside world!"
After hearing what he said, everyone felt relieved. One of them said in a mysterious tone: "You should have heard of the name 'Tornado Mercenary Group'?"
Scott nodded. He knew that it was this mercenary group that destroyed the world's second-ranked "Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group". It was said that it was a very powerful existence, and even the association was concerned about it.
"Then do you know that the 'Tornado Mercenary Group' has been destroyed?" the man asked again with a lowered voice.
"What? You said that mercenary group was destroyed?" Scott was shocked.
Before their "Bear Bone Mercenary Group" entered the "Grievous Valley", there were various rumors about the "Tornado Mercenary Group". Although many people wanted to kill them, no one dared to take action because it was too powerful. It was said that it took only more than twenty minutes to destroy the entire "Dragon Slaying Mercenary Group"!
But now, it has been destroyed by someone. How can it not surprise me? Who can do this?
Could it be...
Scott seemed to understand what the man meant, and a look of even more surprised appeared in his eyes.
Although the man knew that Scott had guessed it, he continued: "That's right, it was this 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' that destroyed the 'Tornado Mercenary Group'!"
"This 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' has eliminated a big cancer for our mercenaries!" Another person said.
"It's really hard to believe that there is a mercenary group that can be better than the 'Tornado Mercenaries'. When I heard this news, I was shocked!"
"Hehe, I haven't slept for two days because of this!"
"It seems that this year's 'Mercenary League' will be very lively!"
“…”
In an instant, everyone started talking nonsense, ignoring Scott's dementia expression.
Mercenary League? Scott's heartstring seemed to be touched, his body trembled suddenly, and then he asked in surprise: "Aren't the 'mercenary league' postponed to next year? Why..."
"Do you know why it was postponed at the beginning? I was afraid that the Tornado Mercenary Group would come to make trouble. Since they have been destroyed, there is no need to worry anymore. Therefore, the 'Mercenary League Tournament' will be held as usual this year, and the rules have changed slightly..."
After listening to the introduction, Scott did not recover for a long time. He did not expect that after months of isolation, so many major events happened outside.
"That... you said you encountered the 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group', then do you know where they are now?" One of them asked with depression.
The people present were like him, hoping to witness the style of this "Piaomiao Mercenary Group" in person, and even dreamed of getting in touch with it.
"I broke up with them not long ago. I think they should still be in this town!" Scott replied a little absurdly. He was still thinking about the "Mercenary League Game"!
"What? You said 'Piaomiao Mercenary Group' is in this town now? Oh my God, I heard it right!"
In an instant, the atmosphere boiled again, and everyone asked about the specific location of the "Piaomiao Mercenary Group", which was very lively!
※※※※※※
Just as these mercenaries were searching around in the town, Zhong Shenxiu and the others had already arrived at the capital of the "Chunlu Empire" - Gufeng City!
Maybe everyone will wonder why every time I go to an empire, Zhong Shenxiu and others will go to the capital there? In fact, the reason is very simple. The capital is the most prosperous place and the city that best symbolizes the characteristics of the empire!
"Chunlu Empire" is worthy of being the birthplace of the undead mage. Once you enter "Bone Phoenix City", you can see various artworks carved from bones of beasts everywhere, and you can also see many people wearing undead robes coming and going.
However, Zhong Shenxiu's eyes did not focus on these undead mages, but on those past mercenaries.
Why are there so many mercenaries here? And they belong to different mercenary groups? Could it be that what happened here?
Although he was curious, Zhong Shenxiu did not show it. Anyway, he had plenty of time and could figure out what was going on sooner or later. The most important thing to do now is to find a restaurant to fill his stomach.
After Zhong Shenxiu and the others separated from the "Bear Bone Mercenary Group", they had not had a meal yet!
After choosing a good restaurant, Zhong Shenxiu and the others went directly to the second floor.
Because it was already afternoon and the peak of lunch was just past, there were not many guests in the restaurant. Zhong Shenxiu and the others chose a good seat next to the window to sit down, and they could wait for the food to be served while watching the scenery of the street.
After a while, the table was filled with food. Just as Zhong Shenxiu and the others were eating with relish, there was a sudden commotion outside.
"Hey, what happened outside? Why does it feel very lively?" Tiya asked curiously.
Everyone calmed down and listened carefully, and could vaguely hear the shouts outside:
"Look, look, it's really the 'Heavenly King Mercenary Group'!"
"The world's number one 'Hero Mercenary Group', yes, it's them!"
"Oh my God, this is the first time I have seen a real person!"
"Don't squeeze, they're here!"
“…”
"Hey, is the 'Tian King Mercenary Group' they said very famous?" Tiya asked again, and looked out his head.
Compared to her, her sister Robin has become much more calm and has never been distracted since the meal comes!
"Is the 'Heaven King Mercenary Group' really here?" Charlotte looked a little strange, as if suppressing the excitement in his heart, "That idol of my former life..."
Before Charlotte could finish his words, he was already lying on the railing, imitating Tia's appearance and looking into the distance.
