Chapter 99: Ancient Armor City

"First of all, it's credibility. There is no problem with mediocre strength, but credibility must be good."

Standing on the spot, after thinking about it for a while, Adier looked at Karu Dao: "In addition, this time I am going to the ancient armor city in the north, I need you to find me some guides who are familiar with it. Is there a problem?"

"No problem, there are a lot of people who meet these conditions." Karu nodded, and then continued to ask: "In addition to a good reputation, do you have any requirements in terms of numbers?"

"I need about fifty guards, plus three or so guides. As the cost of hiring these people, I am willing to pay the price of one gold coin every month, how?"

"This price is very fair." Karu nodded, listening to Adil.

"But I would like to remind you that although the ancient armored city is a big city, it can be very backward there. There are savages and orcs everywhere in the wild. Maybe it will be time to fight and it is not suitable for property purchase."

Looked at Adil and Karu couldn't help but remind him.

"It doesn't matter, I have some relationship there, it should be fine."

For this reminder, Adil smiled on his face and slowly explained.

Hearing this, Karoo stopped talking and said directly: "Well, if you don't mind, you can come back at noon tomorrow. I need some time to inform those mercenaries."

"Okay." Adier nodded and took out two gold coins from his arms: "This is your introduction fee. If the people you find tomorrow make me satisfied, I don't mind giving you more."

"Haha, then thank you!" After receiving the gold coins, Karu lit up: "With these, I can buy some more ore!"

After doing this, Adil turned around and left.

the next day.

Noon, when Adier came to this weapon, he found that many people were already standing outside.

The clothes of these people are different, some are wearing broken leather armor, some are wearing leather, and some people only have a dirty hunting suit, which looks a bit miserable.

But despite all this, these people have good physiques and look powerful.

"These are the guards you found for me?"

Walked into the weapon shop and looked at the people standing outside the door. Adier frowned a little and said, "The equipment is too bad."

"Haha, don't look at the poor equipment of these people, but their strength may not be weak." Standing on the spot, Karu pointed to the human standing outside: "These people are basically veterans who were once veterans After fighting, the combat effectiveness of each one is very good. "

"And these people are specially selected for you, they are still pretty good in credibility, you can use it with confidence."

Heard this, Adier nodded.

"Let them send some representatives in." He looked at the people standing outside and couldn't help saying.

To this, Karu nodded briskly and strode out.

It didn't take long for him to walk in again, followed by three others.

A tall man with blond hair, a sturdy middle-aged man with a ruddy complexion, and a middle-aged man with a thick leather armor that looked ordinary.

As soon as these three came in, there was a veteran atmosphere different from ordinary people, which made Adier nod to himself.

"What's your name?" He asked involuntarily.

"My name is Gru." The blond man took the lead and said his eyes looked bright.

"Adult can call me Ax." The muscular middle-aged man with a ruddy face hammered his chest and said loudly.

"Elder." At last the man spoke, looking a little silent.

Listening to their words, Adil stood at the same place, as if glancing at them casually.

"Name: Grew. Strength: 1.4. Dexterity: 1.2. Physique: 1.4."

"Name: Axe. Strength: 1.3. Dexterity: 1.3. Constitution: 1.5."

The body data of the two flashed quickly in front of him.

Looking at the body data, Adil nodded secretly, and then looked at the last person.

"Name: Elder. Strength: 1.8. Dexterity: 1.7. Constitution: 2."

"Eh ..." Looking at this data, Adier couldn't help turning his eyes to the silent Alder: "Are you a knight apprentice?"

Listening to Adil ’s words, Eeld froze, subconsciously speaking: "How do you know ..."

After saying this, he reacted, and looked at the eyes of several people around him. He couldn't help closing his mouth, and then he restored the previous indifference.

Looking at him like this, Adil thought thoughtfully and then smiled: "Very good."

"I'll accept you guys." He smiled, then pointed to the three of them: "The three of you are representatives, so just be a team leader, five gold coins per month, is there a problem?"

Listening to these words, the three of them were stunned by the excellent conditions for a while, and then nodded quickly.

The three of them are representatives selected from outside mercenaries. They have a certain prestige among the group of people. Being a team leader is not a problem.

And the income of the five gold coins is also what they cannot refuse. Even if they usually take this type of task, the monthly income is less than one gold coin. The income of five gold coins is enough for the whole family to live a year.

Watching the reaction of the three of them, Adier nodded and pointed to Elder who was standing next to him: "You will be the captain of this team, ten gold coins per month."

Suddenly, the other party's eyes showed a happy look, it seemed extremely satisfied with this income.

Looking at the happy look in the other person's eyes, Adier was a little speechless.

Normal knight apprentices, which are not from the nobility, even if the family is lost in the middle, it is impossible to be happy because of the price of ten gold coins.

"It seems to be a civilian who somehow learned the knight breathing method."

Looking at each other like this, Adil shook his head secretly, thinking to himself.

After selecting guards, you can choose as many guides as you want.

Among the seven or eight candidates, Adil chose three seemingly calm and sophisticated ones as his guide this time.

After a few days, the team started to set off.

Adir sat quietly in the carriage. At each point of the team, Elder three led a group of people to guard the side, as the team progressed quietly.

But now, the equipment of the three of them has changed, not only riding a horse, but also wearing a brand new leather armor.

This is all assigned by Adier. Although they don't care about the team's combat effectiveness, in order to make the team look better, he still replaced the three captains with equipment.

Of course, these equipments are only loaned to them temporarily. Although Adil does not lack these gold coins, the wizards are adhering to the equivalent exchange, and it is not good to give them for no reason.

Of course, if they perform well during this time, it does n’t matter if they give this equipment to them.

The team slowly moved forward.

The Kingdom of Gumodo is not peaceful. In addition to the surrounding cities, other parts of the country are often full of thieves and robbers, and some orcs will occasionally come out to fight the autumn wind.

The team of Adier met a lot on the road, most of them were not strong, and were easily repelled by the three Elders.

And after a period of understanding, Adier probably figured out the origin of the three Elders.

Gru and Axe are veterans. Because of their poor family, they participated in recruiting as an adult, constantly fighting orcs, and finally retired to make a living as a farmer and a mercenary.

As for Elder, as Adier thought, he was not a member of the nobility, just a child of an ordinary farmer. Because when he was young, he accidentally rescued a seriously wounded nobleman. As a reward, he was taught the basic knight breathing method by the other party. Finally he joined the army and retired as a mercenary.

The three of them belong to the more honest type, and all of them are already married, which is a type of better control.

···············

One month later, a long line was walking on the wide road.

In front of the team, the shadow of a city was swaying, looking far away.

"Master Adil, in a few hours, the ancient armored city is coming!"

Sat quietly on the carriage, and Alder's ear heard a calm voice.

Listening to the voice, he quietly put down the book he was holding, and then said: "Let the team stop first."

"Erd, Grew, Axe, you three come in."

As the order fell, the surrounding team began to stop slowly, and then three tall figures came in from the outside.

"Adult, what's the matter?"

Looked at Adil. Among the three, Elder said first.

"We are about to go to the ancient armored city, and by then, our employment will be over."

Looking at the three people, Adier smiled and said: "I am going to set up some industries here and need some manpower. Will you come over?"

"As a price, I can relocate your family and give you some land and positions, which is much better than being a mercenary."

"This ..." Hearing Adil's words ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The three of them could not help but looked at each other, and each of them saw the hesitation and intention in each other's eyes.

The life of a mercenary sounds full of excitement. But only those who have truly experienced this profession can know the difficulty of this profession. Not only is it dangerous, unstable, and low-income, it is not as rich and colorful as others thought. It may have died outside, and even the corpses have been eaten by the beasts.

The character of Adil, they can also feel through this time, they do not have the bad habits of some nobles, but they seem to get along well, and they are treated very well.

If the ancient armored city was not located on the border and there were a large number of orcs around, and there was a possibility of fighting at all times, they would never hesitate, and they would just agree on the spot.

But after hesitating for a while, they nodded and agreed.

"Very good." As they nodded, Adier smiled: "As a reward for your loyalty to me, the weapons and equipment you have, and the horses you used during this time, belong to you from now on. ") !!
