Entering the noisy tavern, the girl looked around. After making sure that there was no danger, she lowered her head in relief, then walked to the bar and sat down.
"Yo, welcome, Miss Mercenary."
The enthusiastic boss soon greeted him, stopped on the thin sword at the waist of the girl, and then immediately greeted with a smile.
"What do you need?"
"Please give me a glass of water and fragrant cake."
"Okay, come now."
The shop owner responded while turning around to prepare. At this moment, Mary lowered her head, while playing with the necklace on her chest, while carefully recalling the previous task.
The task was completed very smoothly. Although the girl was only 17 years old, she spent a long time in the mercenary regiment. For such a common task of arranging others to stay, it was not difficult for the girl. In addition, this is her birthplace, she is still very familiar with this place, so she quickly completed the task.
But what puzzled Mary was the identity of these people. Although it is said that mercenaries do things with money, it also depends on the target. The four people they have arranged this time do not look like ordinary mercenaries or criminals, but they do not feel any nobility. Temperament, it seems that it is just an ordinary traveler, but Mary does not believe that they are really just ordinary travelers. If they are ordinary travelers, there is no need for mercenaries to help themselves arrange, just simply go to live The hotel is just fine. In any case, the cost is much less than the mercenaries.
Moreover, these people also asked a lot, not only asked Mary to arrange four consecutive residences for them, but did not even tell her frankly where they lived, but only asked Mary to pay the commission after processing the four places. After her, then let her leave involuntarily.
"What a strange group of guys."
Thinking of the people wearing cloaks and wearing masks, Mary could not help but pouted and complained, but then she shook her head and left these boring things behind her. As a mercenary, she always You will encounter some strange things. If you track them down to the end, you will lose your life.
When Mary threw away her doubts and planned to enjoy the food in front of her, suddenly, the voice from the side attracted her attention.
"Hello, have you heard?"
"Ah, I heard, this time the Bird family is really in trouble."
"It's no wonder, it looks tight, hey, it's just that the kingfisher is out of luck, and I don't know what will happen."
Kingfisher Town?
Hearing the name, Mary moved inside, then she put down the food in her hand, then turned her head and looked to her side. I saw that there were two men dressed as guards. From their appearance, I am afraid that they were resting on patrol. Although there was no particularly anxious look on the faces of the two, their tone of voice was a little helpless. This made Mary a little uneasy. After thinking about it, she finally couldn't help asking.
"Excuse me, what happened to Kingfisher Town?"
"Hey?"
Hearing Mary's inquiry, the two guards turned around and saw that they were a young female maid, with some alertness on their faces, and aware of their expressions, Mary didn't talk much, just smiled.
"Please be assured that I am also a local here, and I was born in Kingfisher Town. I just heard two people talk about what happened there, so I just want to ask... Ah, yes, boss, Give these two a glass of good ale and let me treat you."
"What a shame, miss."
He said so, but the two guards took the glass with a smile, then turned to Mary and shrugged.
"Actually, this is not a big deal, but...you know, Miss, a few days ago, those refugees besieged the Twilight Forest."
"Ok."
Hearing this, Mary nodded and she lived in the City of Heroes. How could she not know?
"I don't know where the refugees are so bold."
Subsequently, another guard went on to say that from his expression, he was really disdainful for the refugees.
"But there is the territories of the endless knights. I don't know what this group of refugees have eaten. The bear heart leopard guts. They dared to go there to make trouble. Frankly speaking, they are all dead inside. I'm not surprised. The thirty thousand forbidden troops of the Kingdom of Stir didn’t even leave a ash, and these thousand refugees wanted to toss? Really do not know what to do."
Different from the outside, at this moment in the territories of the two nobles, the fame of the final knighthood is developing in a positive direction.
The reason is very simple, before King West personally led the team to attack Twilight Forest, but before the time had come, he was bombarded by the twin sisters and there was no left. At that time, many people in the Byrd family territory saw it with their own eyes. The overwhelming and terrible power has already been deeply reflected in the hearts of everyone. Not to mention that after the end of the Knights actually captured King West, he even regarded him as an animal-watching street!
After going through these, the residents of the Byrd family territory are respectful and afraid of the final knighthood. Their respect is that their power has already exceeded the range that ordinary people can understand and reached a top enough to worship. What I am afraid is that no matter how I look at it, these actions do not seem like normal people's practices, but reveal a certain crazy atmosphere. This also made them a little scared, when they wouldn’t look like they wouldn’t be happy to give themselves a try, so it wouldn’t be fun at all.
However, the subsequent changes in the situation have calmed everyone's heart.
When the Sith Empire broke through the Red Fortress, many people were very worried, because it meant that the kingdom’s barrier had fallen, and even the king had been arrested. For a time, many people were a bit worried and could not see the future. But soon, their hearts settled down. Because the Bird family and the Zac family signed a defense agreement with the End Yan Knights, although the specific terms are not known to ordinary people, they always know, which means that the End Yan Knights will help them defend. It was just that at that time, there were still many people who doubted that the ultimate Knights really have this power?
Youlian did not answer their questions, but the Sith Empire responded with their actions—they bypassed the territory of the two families and attacked elsewhere.
Although civilians do not have much military knowledge, ordinary maps are always familiar, and they naturally know the reason why the Sith Empire bypassed itself.
That is the end of the Knights.
At this time, the end of the Knights had become much better known in the territories of the two families, and with the advancing of the Sith Empire, and the influx of many war refugees, the two families became more and more popular. Relying on the End Yan Knights began to think, without the protection of the End Yan Knights, then I am afraid that even they will become one of these refugees, displaced, it makes people a bit scared. In addition, the two families have privately intended to promote their contract with the Ending Knights, which has also caused everyone to gradually have more affection for the Ending Knights, and now, it basically has the meaning of sham and pretentiousness. .
"So, what does this have to do with Kingfisher Town?"
Mary doesn't care about these things, she only cares about one other thing.
"Oh, yes, that's it."
After complaining a few words about the refugees' misunderstandings, the two brought the topic back again.
"I heard that the refugees were incited, so they went to the Twilight Forest."
"This is it."
Hearing this, Mary couldn't help but jump.
"I don’t know if it’s true or false. It’s not impossible for me to say that. The group of guys haven’t been here. I don’t know if it’s high and thick. It’s normal to do something. But this time the family is in a hurry, after all. Before, the Knights seemed to have requested that the refugees should not be allowed to cross the border. This time, the refugees went to the siege for a long time. Although nothing happened in the end, the above is also very nervous. If anything happens, then it’s too bad."
"Yeah, yeah, so I’m very nervous right now, I’m going to check people everywhere. This time, I heard that there was someone in Kingfisher Town who was one of those who incited the refugees, so the family immediately sent people. I heard that together with the mayor Including, dozens of people have been arrested."
"Hey?"
Hearing this, Mary stood up suddenly.
"Did the mayor be arrested?"
"Yeah, hey, Mr. Ralph is a lot of age, and I don't know if I can pass it. Then, who is so unscrupulous, to incite those refugees? Can't get tired?"
"Yeah yeah."
The two guards were still talking to each other, but Mary at the moment was completely unable to listen to their words, and even the fragrant cake in their hands had no appetite to eat.
When Mary returned to the mercenary regiment, it was late at night.
Although very tired, Mary didn't mean to rest at all. She just lying on the soft bed helplessly, staring at the snowy ceiling, her brain was chaotic.
After that, Mary did not immediately return to the mission to report the mission, but went to Kingfisher Town first. As a result, as the two guards said, the mayor and dozens of people under him were all killed by the Bird family. The army caught it and then locked it in the city. The reason is also as previously heard, some of them are suspected of inciting refugees.
At this moment, no one knows about the two family territories. Although the locals are a little angry that these refugees are not good or bad, people not only bow their heads but also so arrogant under the roof. But if something goes wrong, no one likes it. However, these things are no longer important to Mary.
"grandfather……"
She sat up and looked at the deep night outside the window, whispering softly. She was born there, Kingfisher Town, and also her hometown.
Although he was not the child of the old man, the residents there regarded her as their own child since she was sensible. Even when her parents left with her, Mary couldn’t forget that the residents of the town Own nostalgia. But now, they are involved in such an incident.
What should I do?
At this moment, Mary, her brain is at a loss. Of course, she does not believe that her hometown will be a fan of the refugees. However, the perennial mercenary life also allows the girl to understand that she is a mercenary and can’t play anything in front of those nobles. Effective. Even if you go to find it yourself, those nobles will not let go, and may even be involved in the mercenary regiment.
However, she could not sit back and watch them just kept imprisoned by the nobles, so what should I do?
"Boom boom."
Just as Mary meditated, she suddenly heard the knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Mary barely withdrew her thoughts and then answered. At this time, the door was pushed open, and then Crouch came in.
Judging from his demeanor's appearance, he may have just returned, but now Mary really has no mood to greet him, but just nodded slightly.
"You're back."
"Yeah, I'm back."
Crawk walked into the room and replied with a smile, then he stretched out and sat in the chair beside Mary.
"It's really tiring. The mission commander sent me this time. I didn't expect to send the letter to such a ghost place. The dark forest was terrible. The guy at Naxin was also a weird person, fighting in a fight. Peng, also took a mask to cover his face, at first glance it was a shameless guy."
"Oh?"
Hearing the other person's words, Mary was moved inwardly, and the questions that should have been abandoned before appeared again at this moment. But this time, she still didn't think too much, and just then, Crawk put her hand into her clothes, and then took out a small white flower.
"It’s for you, Mary. I picked it up along the way. It’s beautiful, I think it must be for you."
"Thank you...Crawke."
Facing the enthusiasm of the other party, Mary was really bad to say anything. She gave a bit of a wry smile, and then took the little flower in the hands of the teenager. At this time, Crook finally realized that Mary's mood was a bit wrong.
"What's wrong? What happened? Your mission failed?"
"No, the task was completed smoothly, just..."
Mary hesitated again and again, and finally sighed, and then told what happened in Kingfisher Town.
"...I believe everyone is not that kind of person, but after all, the other party is a noble, and I don't know what to do."
"Well, I knew that those nobles were not good!"
After listening to Mary's words, Crowk immediately frowned and snorted, but his speech made Mary frown.
The reason why she said this is that she hopes that Crocker can help herself and give her some opinions or suggestions, but although such abusive sounds very pleasant on the surface, it can't solve the actual problem. What is the use?
"So, Mary, what are you going to do?"
"I do not know either."
Mary shook her head. She really didn't know that as a mercenary, it was impossible to see those nobles, and those nobles would not necessarily listen to her.
So, what should I do?
"Do you want the leader to help? The leader, he..."
"Are you crazy?"
Mary frowned and interrupted Crouch.
"This is my personal private matter. The leader, he represents the Blue Feather Mercenary Corps! Right now we have no evidence and no position to do this! Even if the leader finds it is useless!"
"What should I do?"
Crouch's complexion became ugly now.
"You need to know that those nobles are not good people, they don't care about the life and death of the people below. In my opinion, these nobles will definitely torture them. By that time, if there is anything..."
"enough!"
Hearing this, Mary finally couldn't help shouting anymore. That's what she doesn't want to hear now, but Crocker just said it in front of her, which made Mary very uncomfortable. Does he comfort him without understanding?
"I'm tired of what your nobles are saying! I don't want to hear it now. I just hope there is a way."
"Mary, I..."
Hearing this, Crook was also stunned, and then looked pale, but did not know what to say.
"Sorry...Mary."
"It doesn't matter, I'm so excited too."
After screaming, Mary seemed to return to calm, and she took the teenager's hand again and smiled at him.
"And, in fact, the nobles are not all so bad, like..."
Speaking of which, a person suddenly appeared in Mary's mind.
By the way, if it is him, can you help yourself solve the problem?
"Mary?"
Seeing the girl not speaking for a long time, Crook asked with some doubt. And at this moment, Mary nodded as if she had recovered.
"I think I might have a solution."
"Method? What method?"
"I may be able to find someone to help. Of course, I am not sure that I will succeed, but at least it will be more promising."
"who?"
Hearing this, Crocker also immediately got up and asked.
"..............."
Hearing his inquiry, Mary hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she answered the other person's question.
"Lord of the Twilight Forest, Lord Yulian."
"he?"
Upon hearing this, Crouch's face immediately became ugly.
"How he does, that guy is a mean and shameless villain! Mary, you can't go to him, this guy is not a good person, I tell you, before he..."
"I've heard what Big Brother Ska said before that."
Mary frowned and interrupted Crouch again coldly.
"We are mercenaries. Since we have taken the money, we have to complete the task. The other party's remuneration is so high, which is naturally very dangerous. You are not the first newcomer to do the task. How can you not even understand this?"
"This%……………"
"Moreover, I think Lord Lord is not as bad as you said. I have apologized to you before, and he accepted my apology, and did not use these to embarrass and threaten us. So, I think this lord Adults are still a bit different from other nobles."
"What's the difference!"
Hearing this, Crook finally couldn't help jumping.
"Mary, can't you be fooled? The nobles on the surface are sweet talk, in fact, they have bad water in their stomachs. If you go to him for pleading, maybe he will use this to do excessive things to you! Those nobles all It’s so horny, shameless, and mean, you’re going to find him, but it’s dangerous!

"I have decided, and, in my opinion, Lord Lord is not as mean as you said."
Mary interrupted Crouch again, and she was already a little irritable.
"And, things have developed to this point, for those who have taken care of me, even if there is no hope, I have to give it a try, I have decided, Crawke."
"But we might have other options..."
"Is there any way!"
Mary shouted angrily, then sighed tiredly.
"I'm tired and want to rest. You go, Crocker."
"Mary..."
Hearing Mary's words, the teenager was dissatisfied and wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing, but nodded.
"Okay, I see, do you need me to go with you? If the dares to do anything to you, I will break his nose."
"no need."
"So... I'm gone."
Watching the teenager leave, Mary took a long breath, and then she lay on the bed again, looking at the ceiling.
Are you really sure?
This time, even Mary herself could not find the answer. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
