Chapter 129 I am a mercenary. The sea monster siege battle has just ended. All the mercenaries who participated in the battle should be exhausted and fell asleep on the ground as soon as they returned to the house. But what surprised Li Yan was that the Xinghui mercenaries
All the members of the Corps seemed particularly energetic. Before it got completely dark, they couldn't help but rush to places like wine, intending to eliminate their physical and mental fatigue through alcohol and women.
The miserable Li Yan originally planned to go out for a drink with Erics and others, but before he could walk out of the house, he was caught by Lin Na, who had been guarding him for a long time.
Amidst the laughter, he returned to Lin Na's side honestly.
Originally, Li Yan thought that his waist would be ravaged by Lin Na's small hands again this time, but he didn't expect that Lin Na didn't blame him, but just pulled him and stood there waiting for a while, and then Li Yan saw Emma also
He walked out briskly.
It was then that Li Yan suddenly realized that the reason why he didn't let me go drinking was to accompany the two sisters to go shopping! Although he was still frightened about the last time he and Lin Na went shopping alone, he had already reached this point and he couldn't say no.
, I can only willingly work as a follower for them both.
At this time, the sky has not completely turned dark, and the afterglow of the sun can still be seen shining on the city wall, giving the city wall that has just experienced a brutal fighting and still has blood stains still stained with a golden coat. It looks like
It also seems to be less bloody and more solemn.
Li Yan and the three of them were walking on the slightly noisy streets. The air was still filled with the faint smell of blood, but the smell that attracted Li Yan's attention now was the smell of the sea.
The bitter taste of tears...
Not to mention the situation in previous years, in this year's sea monster siege alone, the total number of dead mercenaries, soldiers and civilians was tens of thousands, and the vast majority of them were mercenaries. Tens of thousands of lives were lost.
No, this made Li Yan feel a little uncomfortable.
You need to be more vigilant during the battle, so you don't have the energy to think about these things. Now that you are free, Li Yan's heart can't calm down. Are these dead mercenaries heroes? They will be remembered by the people of the Skansen Kingdom.
? Is their effort worth it?
"Li Yan, what's wrong with you? Why are you in such a daze?" Lin Na, who was talking to Emma about the little secret between sisters, accidentally noticed something strange about Li Yan when she turned around, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Li Yan didn't hide anything, he told the question exactly what he had just thought of, and then looked forward to the two of them giving an answer.
Lin Na had never thought about such a question. She was not a woman who liked to think about problems, so it was natural for her to put such a profound question in Emma's hands and let her think about it.
Emma seemed to have never thought about this problem before. Ever since she became sensible, she knew that her father was the leader of a mercenary group and a glorious mercenary, so her dream when she was a child was to become a mercenary like her father.
Great mercenary! When she got older, she naturally joined the Star Mercenary Group and successfully became a young mercenary, initially realizing her childhood dream. Later, with the tragic death of her father
, she took over her father's responsibilities and became the leader of the Xinghui Mercenary Group. At this time, her dream was to lead the Xinghui Mercenary Group into a high-level mercenary group and fulfill her father's long-cherished wish.
It was only then that she realized that she had always lived in the small circle of mercenaries. Her parents were mercenaries, her uncles were mercenaries, and her friends of the same age were also mercenaries. After joining the mercenary group, she spent all day working with mercenaries.
When dealing with soldiers, it is as if there are only mercenaries around and no one else.
As for whether mercenaries are heroes or not, and how ordinary people view them, Emma herself doesn't know. She has lived in the circle of mercenaries her whole life, so how does she know how the outside world views them? But facing the
Li Yan's eyes were full of curiosity, but Emma simply expressed her feelings.
"I don't know how outsiders view mercenaries, and it doesn't matter, because I am a mercenary and have been a mercenary all my life. Even if I get old and can't walk, I will still be a mercenary! In my world
, Mercenary is not only a profession, but also a belief. It is a rugged and iron-blooded road, but it is also full of joy and the belief of freedom. I have never thought of helping Passalaman City resist the siege of sea monsters.
Seeing it as such a great thing, this is just a fair deal. The city of Pasala will provide the money, and we will provide the mercenaries. It’s as simple as that."
Emma's answer surprised Li Yan at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it was very reasonable. It seemed that it was just like this, simple yet profound.
At this time, Lin Na, who was already a little impatient, gave up and finally went out for shopping. She didn't want to make it so heavy. "Okay, okay, don't think about these messy problems anymore.
We are here to go shopping, not to discuss issues!"
Seeing that Lin Na was impatient, Li Yan had no choice but to shrug and stop delving into these issues. As Emma said, it doesn't matter to me what others think or think, because I am just a mercenary!
Since the sea monster siege has officially ended, all the shops on the street have opened again. Although most of them sell equipment and the like, they also add a bit of noise to this city that is full of a chilling atmosphere.
The rewards from the military have not yet been distributed, and Emma does not have much money in her hands to buy any equipment. But as a woman, shopping does not necessarily mean buying something. This is the same for women in any world!
Li Yan had no choice but to follow the two of them around one store after another. Fortunately, the clerks in these stores seemed to know the habits of the mercenaries very well. Even if they just took a casual look, they did not show any signs of it.
With an impatient look on his face, Li Yan couldn't help but sigh at the service quality of Manchester City.
The sky was gradually shrouded in darkness, which also made the city of Pasalaman, which had been full of battle horns for many days, rarely return to calm. Only the places where night owls like to drink and linger still maintained a noisy atmosphere.
Accompanying the two girls, they visited almost all the shops on both sides of the main road in Pasalaman City. Li Yan's legs felt as if they were filled with lead and were so heavy that he could hardly even move.
After fully satisfying their shopping needs, Emma and Lin Na seemed a little tired, and finally walked towards the house with Li Yan's eager eyes.
As night completely enveloped the entire city of Passalaman, this city that had just experienced a bloody battle could finally close its eyes and have a good sleep.
