When I saw Russell and others, they were all dressed simply and didn't take them seriously.
The fat-headed and big-eared young master had no scruples at all. He pointed at Guan Susu and said: "You! Come and drink with me. I am in a good mood today. If you accompany me well, I will be rewarded heavily. You may not be able to accept it."
You will be a concubine in the 18th room!"
Guan Susu glanced at the other party, his eyes full of contempt, and did not reply.
The master here was not in a hurry, but the bastard behind him was, and immediately shouted: "Didn't you hear? My young master asked you to come over to accompany you for a drink because he cares about you. Do you know who my young master is? Why are you still standing there?
, crawl over here immediately!”
Russell grabbed a piece of wild beef, took a bite, and moistened his throat with the clear spring spirit liquid, and then said: "You should tell me who your young master is? It will also help us learn more about it."
"Ha, at first glance, you are just a group of civilians from out of town, without any knowledge. You don't know who is in charge of this Qingshan City! Let me tell you, this is our young master - Zhu Wen, Mr. Zhu, but Zhang Tianhe, the brother-in-law of City Lord Zhang,
In the entire Qingshan City, no one dares to deny Mr. Zhu face."
Russell glanced at Zhu Wen, who looked arrogant, and said: "So, your sister is Zhang Tianhe's wife! No, I remember Zhang Tianhe's wife should be named Murong."
Wu Yong said softly: "Sir, Zhang Tianhe just took in a concubine recently. This concubine's surname is Zhu."
Zhu Wen raised his head higher and said with a smile: "You have some knowledge. Yes, my brother-in-law is the Lord of Qingshan City. Are you afraid? Send me the little beauty quickly. I am happy.
, I can let a few of you be my Zhu family’s slaves.”
"Just having some relatives with the Zhang family, and daring to rob civilian girls in broad daylight is indeed beyond my expectation. Although I have long heard that the Zhang family is domineering and domineering in Qingshan City, but now that I see it, it is really a bit surprising.
Unexpectedly, this arrogance is a bit exaggerated." The Zhang family has been entrenched in Qingshan City for more than a hundred years and has a deep foundation. In addition, together with the Murong family, they have dominated Qingshan City for decades, and they have long regarded Qingshan City as their own territory.
His behavior is naturally arbitrary and arbitrary.
Zhu Wen finally heard the disdain for the Zhang family in Russell's words, and said angrily: "Assholes, these untouchables, they don't take the Zhang family seriously, how bold! Come here!!" As he said that, he picked it up casually.
There was half a pot of clear spring spiritual liquid on the table. He took a sip and said: "You pariahs like you can afford to drink this clear spring spiritual liquid. Please teach me a lesson to these ignorant pariahs and keep these little beauties!"
Looking at the Qingquan spirit liquid that was wasted by Zhu Wen, Russell felt a little regretful and said: "It's a pity that a pot of good wine was wasted by a pig."
At this time, a group of guards behind Zhu Wen had already rushed up.
Luo Cheng and others looked at each other, and in the end it was Bailiying who stood up to deal with it. Bailiying's strength, after several months of tempering, coupled with the assistance of countless spiritual food, has reached the peak of the nine-star human martial realm, and Bailiying's
Li Ying's body skills are very good and his talent is outstanding. He has already mastered Tuxue Wuhen's body skills, and he also knows a very advanced shadow killing technique. Speaking of which, just in terms of body skills, even Luo Chengdu
How inferior to him.
I saw Bailiying turn around and move a few meters away in a few steps. His figure was like lightning and silent. He took out a dagger and slashed the necks of the guards. Waiting for Bailiying to stabilize himself.
Within a few seconds, the dozens of guards all fell to the ground dead with blood splattered from their throats, leaving only Zhu Wen, who was stunned.
Russell looked at Bailiying who returned to his seat and said: "Baili, when you killed the fourth and tenth enemies just now, your upper body did not keep up with the rhythm of your body movements, and your breathing did not adjust.
Well, you were a bit eager for quick success, which caused a moment of weakness. Although you made up for it in time, among masters, this little flaw will also cost you your life. Next time you face the enemy, you need to be cautious and don't let the opponent
Weak and contemptuous."
"Yes, young master, Baili realizes his mistake and will continue to work hard in the future."
In the hearts of the three girls Guan Susu, countless people were running wildly... Such a clean and quick kill and unpredictable movement skills were criticized by others. Guan Susu really didn't know how to describe the shock in her heart. Ever since she entered the palace
After that, even the lowest innate-level guards in the palace were far more powerful than the same level, and they were even more proficient in martial arts and body skills. I really don’t know how they were trained in the Dela Palace.
At this time, Drasel glanced at Zhu Wen, who was stunned by Safiya's chicken, and said: "Hey, I'm actually very curious, why do you dare to show off so unscrupulously? The guards behind you are not very strong.
, there are only two who are warriors in the Human Martial Realm, the rest are all innate, what is it that gives you the courage to provoke strangers at will?"
Zhu Wen: "I... I am the brother-in-law of the Lord of Qingshan City. If you dare to kill me... you will never leave Qingshan City... Why don't you kneel... and apologize to me. I will let you go immediately."
You guys..." Zhu Wen looked at Bailiying, his tone clearly showing weakness.
"Just because the Zhang family can give you such courage to act recklessly in Qingshan City? It seems that the strength of the Zhang family is not even a third-rate family in the Celestial Empire! In the Celestial Empire, there are a lot of Zhang families who cannot be offended.
I really can’t figure out where you got the courage from.”
Zhu Wen didn't know how to answer at this time and could only stay where he was.
"Forget it, it's probably in vain to ask. If you could think so far ahead, you wouldn't be such an idiot." With that said, Russell stood up and walked to Zhu Wen.
"No......don't...don't kill me..."
I saw Russell standing in front of Zhu Wen, turning around twice and saying, "Do you see clearly what I look like?"
Zhu Wen took two steps back, not knowing how to answer.
"If you can see it clearly, remember it well." Then, he raised the knife and cut off one of Zhu Wen's arms. Zhu Wen looked at his broken arm, rolled his eyes, and fainted. He didn't know it was because he was frightened.
Still feeling sore and dizzy.
After Russell finished dealing with Zhu Wen, he said to the old man with a group of servants behind him: "Old sir, I'm sorry for causing you some trouble. I'm trying to apologize to you." He took out a large bag of purple gold coins (
1 purple gold coin = 100 gold coins), threw it on the table, and left with Guan Susu and others.
After Russell had left for a long time, the old man asked the boy to pick up the body.
"Shopkeeper, what should I do with Mr. Zhu?"
"Stop the bleeding and send it back to Zhu's Mansion." The old man looked very calm.
"Then when Zhu Mansion asks, how should we answer?"
"Just answer truthfully and describe clearly the appearance of those young people."
"yes!"
After the old man left, he quickly returned to the back hall and saw a young gentleman sitting in a room in the back hall.
"Old man, something happened outside!"
"Young Master, some young men just cut off the arms of Zhu Wen of the Zhu family!"
"Zhu Wen? The new noble Zhu family, those people should not be locals of Qingshan City."
"Yes, they are all very familiar. Although they are dressed in simple clothes, they have the aura of a superior person. There is a strong man among them who is extremely powerful. He is only in the human martial arts realm, but his body skills are mysterious and unpredictable. Even if he is strong in the earth martial arts realm,
Even worse than that."
The young master's voice immediately raised a few points and he said: "Oh, that's interesting. It seems that these people's identities are not simple, and their strength is also good. Send someone to investigate first. These people are worthy of our Zhou family's contact. In recent years,
God, pay more attention to the Zhu family. If the Zhu family wants to seek revenge on those people and find an opportunity to save them, no matter what the result is, since they have provoked the Zhu family, they are enemies of the Zhang family, and they are the members of our Zhou family.
friend."
"Yes, young master! There is one more thing that needs to be decided by the young master."
"Say it!"
"The Zhang family has been mobilizing city guards frequently recently. They seem to be looking for someone? Do we need to stop them?"
The young man hesitated and said: "First find out who the Zhang family is looking for. In the past few days, the Flame Mercenary Group has been very close to the Zhang family. Can we start with them to find out what the Zhang family wants to do?"
"Yes, young master." After saying that, the old man withdrew.
The Zhu Family Residence in Qingshan City.
A scantily clad and beautiful young woman was moving quickly between the balconies. This person was Zhu Yan, Qingshan Chengcheng's new concubine who advocated Tianhe's marriage.
Zhu Yan pushed open the door to the inner courtyard and walked into a room. On the big bed in the room, Zhu Wen was lying with one of his arms chopped off. He saw that his brother, who had the same father and mother, had been chopped off.
Arm, passed out on the bed, Zhu Yan immediately became furious and roared with a murderous look on his face: "Who! Who did it! Who! How dare you cut off my brother's arm! I want him dead!!!"
At this time, the head of the Zhu family was also standing aside, watching the doctor bandaging Zhu Wen, and said with a helpless expression: "Isn't this a treacherous son? Taking advantage of the power of the Zhang family, he does evil everywhere and doesn't know who he will offend.
His arm was actually cut off. My father has told me countless times that we should be cautious in dealing with things and not be too domineering! You don't listen!" The head of the Zhu family saw that he was the kind of conservative who takes two steps back when others take one step forward.
His style and appearance are also slightly short and thin. The Zhu family was once a member of the lower-class nobles of Qingshan City. He had always lived a miserable life, which naturally developed his timid and fearful character.
Zhu Yan looked at his father with a mocking look on his face and said: "Father, you are old and your ideas are outdated. You only know what is cautious and what is concession. Maybe you don't know what confidence is in your whole life.
What does it mean to hold your head high and chest high!"
"Nonsense, you dare to talk about being a father like that, you still think of me as your father!"
"Father, the Zhu family is no longer what it used to be. I am now a member of the Zhang family, and my husband is the lord of Qingshan City. No one in the entire Qingshan City dares to disobey the Zhang family? From now on, I, Zhu
Family is the existence that is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. In this Qingshan City, who dares to say no! No matter who it is, I, Zhu Yan, will definitely kill him and avenge my brother! No one can stop him!"
Zhu Yan said firmly!
With that said, he left the room without looking back, leaving only the head of the Zhu family with an angry face.
Zhu Yan found the boy who brought Zhu Wen back and said, "Tell me! Who cut off my brother's arm! If you don't tell me, you will die on the spot."
"Yes... yes, the young man said everything without any lies..." After that, the young man told Zhu Yan everything that happened at Yuanlai Winery, and drew a portrait of Dresel. Zhu Yan
Seeing that the boy was very cooperative, I waved him away.
After that, Zhu Yan found the housekeeper and issued an order, ordering all the guards of the Zhu family and the store clerks to search for the whereabouts of Drasel. However, Qingshan City is so large that it is not easy to find an outsider.
It still takes some time.
At this time, Drasel and his gang were staying in a hotel to rest, and would go to the mercenary union to pick up a mission early tomorrow morning.
At night, when Russell walked out of the room, Bailiying had been waiting for a long time.
Russell: "Baili, the plan...but there are some obstacles."
"Back to Young Master, during the execution of the plan, there was a person who noticed some traces and was tracking our whereabouts. My subordinates came to ask for orders. Do you want to kill him?"
"Oh? Can you notice our plan? Who is this person? What is his status in the family?"
"It is said that this man is a useless person and his status is low in the family."
"Interesting. Don't rush to kill this person. Send someone to keep an eye on him. If there is any unusual movement, report it as soon as possible."
"Yes, young master!"
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
On the second day after clearing the city, Drasel and others left the hotel and headed towards the Qingshan City Mercenary Union. Perhaps out of fear of trouble, Guan Susu and others put on a large cloak and covered their faces a little.
At least people can't see the face clearly, after all, beauty is a disaster.
Mercenary unions are actually places where major cities centrally issue tasks. Some densely populated big cities must have many needs. Mercenary unions are naturally born. All mercenary unions are governed by the city lord's palace and the city guards.
Military management is a formal place recognized by the imperial court. At the same time, it is also an important part of the source of wealth for the city lord's palace. Whether you accept a task or issue a task, you need to pay a handling fee, which is a lot of money.
According to the system of the Celestial Empire, whether you are engaged in business or farming, you need to pay taxes, and the mercenary union charges handling fees. These two items are the largest source of wealth for a city. The remaining fines, city entry fees, etc.,
It is a niche income. Part of this wealth will be collected into the accounts of the city lords, and some will be handed over to the Celestial Empire. Every two years, the imperial capital will hold a hundred-city tribute meeting, inviting the city lords of each city to go to the imperial capital to pay tribute and taxes.
It is also held every two years and is the largest gathering of nobles in China.
When Russell and others entered the gate of the mercenary union, there was already a sea of people inside, and mercenaries wearing different clothes could be seen everywhere. Some mercenaries wore uniform uniforms, indicating that they all belonged to the same mercenary group.
, while some mercenaries are dressed casually, showing that they are all idle mercenaries, and Russell and others naturally belong to the latter group.
"Mother Shen, I don't know much about mercenaries. What procedures do I need to go through?"
Mother Shen has been involved in the construction of mercenary groups, so she is very familiar with these things. She said: "If you want to receive mercenary tasks, you need to become a mercenary first. Becoming a mercenary is very simple. You pay the money at the counter and fill in the relevant information."
Information, just get the mercenary certification crystal card. When applying for mercenaries, you will be asked to make a choice. You can join a designated mercenary group, which requires someone to recommend you; you can also set up your own mercenary group, which requires at least 10 people.
"
Russell: "What are the benefits of establishing a mercenary group?"
"This has many benefits. After completing a task, an independent free mercenary can only receive task rewards and nothing else. After establishing a mercenary group, as long as the task is completed, the leader of the mercenary group can also receive corresponding points.
Points can be exchanged for corresponding rewards from the mercenary union, and can also be used to reduce handling fees when publishing tasks or receiving tasks. If the points reach a specified level, you can upgrade the mercenary group, and after paying a certain handling fee, you can
By expanding the number of mercenary groups, you can even gain ownership of a designated area in the city to create a headquarters. In short, there are many benefits."
"It feels pretty good. How are the levels of this mercenary group divided?"
"The levels are divided into six levels from high to low: a, b, c, d, e, f. There is also a special level S-level mercenary group, which needs to complete special tasks in the empire and be awarded by the royal family. The entire
In the Celestial Empire, there are only three S-class mercenary groups, which are legends in the mercenary world. The tasks that mercenaries can receive are also divided into levels. The level classification is the same as this. The lower the level, the fewer rewards you will get and the more difficult it will be.
Low."
"It sounds like I'm quite looking forward to the mercenary life. Mother Shen, I'd like you to help us apply for a few mercenary certificates. Let's go to the mission wall over there and take a look at the missions. If there's anything interesting,
Tasks can also be accepted in advance. "
Mother Shen nodded, walked to a counter very skillfully, and started to register as a mercenary. Russell and others walked towards the mission hall with the most people. On the walls of the hall, various kinds of posters were posted.
This kind of mission attracts many mercenaries.
The entire mercenary hall was very large. There was a large group of people inside, looking around for mercenary missions. According to levels, the mission hall was divided into six rooms: a, b, c, d, e, and f. Russell ordered Luo Cheng
The others will check separately. As long as they find tasks related to the Endless Mountains, they will make a record. Then he will take Guan Susu and Cui'er and randomly walk to Area E.
Looking at the task prompts on the wall, Russell found it quite interesting. Areas e and f were both low-level task areas, and the tasks inside were divided into levels according to bounty and difficulty.
The low-level tasks in area e are pretty good value for money. Russell saw a task to find a pet. It seemed that a certain noble lady wanted to catch a level 1 flying alien beast and keep it as a pet. As long as she caught the baby bird, the task
The reward is 1,000 gold coins, which is very generous.
There are all kinds of tasks, such as helping villagers in a village, driving away strange beasts, cleaning hills, building houses, etc. It is very complicated. If you can think of it, you can find it on the task wall.
After looking at the task list for a long time, Russell was only satisfied with one of the tasks. The goal of the task was very clear, and he needed to find a poison called snake grass. This poison has a strong anesthetic effect, but it does not
It is not fatal. It usually grows around the nests of snakes and strange beasts. It is dangerous to pick it and the price is quite expensive. However, it is mentioned in the task prompt that someone has seen snake grass on the outskirts of the Endless Mountains in the north of Qingshan City.
It's just that there are many highly venomous snakes and strange beasts around, which are difficult to pick, so the mission is issued and the mercenaries are sent to take action.
The bounty of the mission is also very attractive. As long as you get a snake grass, you can get 50 gold coins. The more you get, the greater the reward. The mission is limited to 2 months. Not to mention that the bounty is good, and it is different from your own.
The destination direction is also the same, this task is the first choice.
Just when Russell was about to take action and grab the task list, another hand stretched out from the side and grabbed the task list at the same time as Russell. This situation is very common in the mercenary hall.
The so-called task competition is the beginning of conflicts between mercenaries.
Russell turned around and looked at the young man who grabbed the task list with him. He saw that the man looked modest, tall and tall, with a resolute face and the air of a general. Russell looked at the man's face
At the same time, the man also looked at Russell.
Russell smiled and said: "Friend, what do you call me? I am also interested in this mission."
"I am Cheng Haotian, a student of Qingwu Academy. I don't know what you call me. Can you give me the task? I can pay for it."
"Muyu, the captain of a mercenary team. Sorry, I am also very satisfied with this mission and do not want to give it away. If Brother Cheng wants it, we can go to the ring and have a fight. If you win, the mission will be yours." Competition in the ring,
It is the most commonly used method to solve tasks. The mercenary union also provides such an arena, allowing mercenaries to use their own strength to win tasks.
Just looking at Russell, Cheng Haotian thought for a moment and said, "Brother Mu, you just said that you are a mercenary team, not a mercenary group?"
"That's right, we are just a small team of free mercenaries and have not joined a mercenary group."
"Oh, in that case, I have a suggestion. Is Brother Mu interested in hearing it? If possible, we can work together to complete the task, and the bounty will definitely not be small. However, I think Brother Mu will also get the team points from this task.
If you don’t need it, can you give it to us?”
"Brother Cheng, if you have any suggestions, you can tell me."
"Brother Mu, let's sit over there. I'll buy Brother Mu a drink and we'll sit down and chat."
A few people found a place to sit down, and Cheng Haotian gave his suggestion. It turned out that Cheng Haotian and others were students who were about to graduate from Qingwu Academy. He found a dozen classmates of the same grade and planned to form a group after graduation.
The mercenary group started their own business. Now that the mercenary group has been successfully formed, their next task is to obtain more team points, upgrade the mercenary group, and make a name for themselves in the mercenary world.
This type of mission, which relies on obtaining the number of target items and granting bounties, is the fastest way to obtain points. As long as you can find enough snake grass, you can obtain a large number of points at once.
