As the saying goes, there is money to make the ghosts grind.
In a literal sense, this should be a compliment to ghosts, an existence that needs money to help you grind, no matter how evil or humble your background, its strength is always guaranteed. However, Yulian stared at the mercenaries standing in front of the castle, and at any rate did not think that they could have anything to do with the ghosts who needed money to grind.
At this moment, in the afternoon, above the small square in front of the Twilight Castle, a dozen teams stood there scattered. These are the mercenary regiments who came to the Twilight Forest after seeing the recruitment order. You should know that on the golden business road, besides businessmen, mercenaries are also important objects from time to time. They extend the business road and look for the smoke and breath of war as if they are wolves. Only by the amount of money to find their master. They used money to do things, were extremely loyal to their masters during the contract, and never betrayed. Of course, the combat strength of these mercenary regiments is also quite different. Some regiments specialize in reconnaissance, sneak attacks, and assassinations. And some are good at encircling and suppressing, attacking and other frontal battles. Their prices also vary, and more importantly, these mercenaries choose their owners entirely by their own will. There are only two things they desire, money, and the glory of battle.
This is exactly why these mercenary regiments are called "wild dogs". They do not accept captivity and do not introduce recruitment. They only accept employment relationships, sign contracts, and leave when they expire. It's that simple.
You Lian was naturally familiar with these mercenaries, but because of this, after seeing the first batch of recruited mercenaries, Yu Lian was obviously dissatisfied.
These mercenaries, like their grandparents, wore a variety of protective gear and formed a variety of teams. It's just that their number is too small, making them look more like a team of adventurers than mercenaries. Because unlike the adventurers, the soldiers in the mercenary team are relatively single. Except for those large mercenary regiments, they are basically single soldiers. So their number is very important, and if there is a lack of quantitative advantage, then you can only rely on quality-so that the problem comes, you can reach dozens of hundreds of people with the power of a few people, that is not a high-level swordsman It is a knight. What mercenaries do you have to run with such strength?
But now, looking at the three or five groups of swordsmen, archers, and a group of cavalry, Yulian also had to sigh. Among these mercenaries, there are not many young and strong. From their faces, they are either fledgling or old. You can even say so-the so-called old and weak are basically the mercenary groups here. Accounted for.
Shengen is on, look at the old archer wearing a dirty dark eye mask, and then look at the thin, almost skinny horses under the young cavalry, Yulian really does not expect any strength from these mercenaries. . But now, he has no choice. Large-scale conscription is not feasible, and can only rely on increasing remuneration to attract mercenaries. Unfortunately, these mercenaries are obviously more concerned about the front than the "rear". At least for now, although the price given by Yulian is quite exciting, for mercenaries, they are not I think there will be battles in this backcountry.
"Judy, try them."
Julian didn't say much, but lifted her chin, and then gave orders. The red-haired girl who received the order saluted him, and then walked forward to the mercenaries.
"Start testing now!"
While Judy's crisp voice sounded, the original lazy mercenaries suddenly seemed to have changed into a person. They instantly straightened their bodies, stood up, and formed a neat formation. Even the young, childish mercenaries are now looking at the red-haired girl with a serious face, waiting for her next words. This is a process that mercenaries must go through before signing a contract. Only after seeing their strength, the employers can safely sign a contract with them. Of course, this is also for the employers to have a rough understanding of the strength of the mercenary regiment, which is also a very necessary process. However, the specifications of this test depend on the employer's own preferences. Sometimes it will be strict, and sometimes it will be unique. Only mercenaries who have passed these tests are eligible to sign the contract.
Although the people present at Yulian didn't look as good as they were, they were mercenaries after all. Naturally, they are no longer familiar with such pre-assessment.
"The test content is very simple."
Judy glanced at the ready mercenaries, paused for a moment, then continued to speak.
"As long as you can get close to me within half a meter, then you are qualified!"
"....................."
Hearing this weird test, the mercenaries were all squinting, and they looked at each other, completely unsure which test it was.
Faster than speed? But looking at this young red-haired woman in armor, it shouldn't be right at speed. Moreover, what do you do more than speed in battle? Is it faster than anyone to escape? But it doesn't sound like it, half a meter near her? This requirement sounds a bit nonsense and unclear. Although the conditions are very simple and clear, the meaning behind it is completely incomprehensible.
In any case, the employer has given the conditions, so as a mercenary, as long as it is completed. So the mercenaries glanced at each other, and then, soon, several teams touched carefully. They held the weapon in their hands, prepared everything, and walked in the direction of Judy. The red-haired girl just looked at them, her expression did not change at all, and the cool mountain breeze blew her long red hair, as if a flame was beating. She reached out and held the hilt of the long sword around her waist, and did not mean to pull out her weapon.
However, the speed of those mercenaries gradually slowed down.
Ten meters away from Judy, the mercenaries were sweating. They blushed and clenched their teeth, as if resisting an invisible presence. But at this time, at least they were able to move forward, but when they were within five meters, the mercenaries’ movements were slower. They could hardly walk, and the hand that originally held the weapon also dropped When they came down, their eyes were red, and they were breathing heavily, as if they were ashore. Some people have decisively chose to give up and retreat, while others still persist in their hard work, hoping to continue to move forward, but it looks as if they have no strength.
what's going on?
The reaction of these mercenaries immediately aroused the curiosity and attention of others. They glanced at each other, and then moved forward as well, joining them.
But soon, these people also encountered the same situation. They could not even get close to Judy within three meters, and the strongest of these mercenaries was only relying on the power of their own mounts. Only barely rushed to within four meters, and then his horse refused to advance half a step, and the poor rider himself yelled in the throat and rolled backwards.
What these mercenaries feel is very simple, that is hot.
At the beginning, they did not take these enthusiasms into consideration. There were even many mercenaries who didn't even notice any anomalies. They just moved forward and followed Judy's instructions to reach her half a meter in front of her. But soon, they discovered that things were not as simple as they thought. As the distance drew closer, the mercenaries felt that the heat around them was getting higher and higher, and the hot breath even made them dizzy. Some people's chain mail is even unbearably hot. And those mercenaries who rely on their own aptitude continue to move forward, only to find that the air has become extremely hot. Even every time they breathe, it feels as if a big fireball has been swallowed by themselves, and even the breathing becomes difficult!
Although all the mercenaries in the square have participated in the trial, but none of them can be close to Judy for half a meter. They can only stand far from the distance of about four or five meters, forcibly resisting, trying Demonstrate that the mercenary never fails. After all, besides money, the best thing about mercenaries is face. Now let them retreat without a fight in front of a girl? How could these mercenaries swallow this breath?
"I'm sorry, sir, it seems that they all failed."
Looking at the mercenaries, Judy sighed long, and then she turned her head, looking at Yulian helplessly.
"Judy, I need to remind you again that they are not facing the Knights of the Holy Grace, and they do not need such rigorous testing at all."
Facing Judy's gaze, Yulian was helpless. In fact, what Judy used was the basic requirement for conscription in the chaotic era-how to fight against the momentum of this soul attribute in the world where knights are rampant. After all, knights have powerful souls and beliefs, and their momentum is extraordinary. Once they exhale their fighting intentions, ordinary people have no way to maintain their fighting spirit in front of them. Therefore, if you want to fight such a war, you must give the soldiers the strength to fight the knightly atmosphere.
Of course, this is also very simple, as long as you have obtained the strength above the intermediate level, and awakened your soul attributes or elemental powers, you can use the body protection aura to resist this coercive pressure. But obviously, these poor mercenaries have no such strength.
The so-called calculus test for kindergarten students is nothing more than that.
Hearing this, Judy seemed to react. She looked slightly red, and then immediately withdrew her coercion. At the same time, the mercenaries also quickly backed away, and they quickly pulled away from the red-haired girl while breathing the sober air in the forest to "cool down" their bodies. Although these mercenaries do not necessarily understand Judy's strength, now they are keenly aware that this red-haired girl is difficult to deal with!
After the mercenaries calmed down again, Yulian stepped forward. He stared at the mercenary in front of him, and then spoke for a moment.
"I am disappointed, everyone."
"..........................."
"Frankly speaking, your strength is really weak and does not meet my requirements. Moreover, I do not think that in your current state, you can win on my battlefield..."
Although Yulian's words were very sharp, these mercenaries were completely unable to refute them in half a sentence. This is also the case. They are not even close to a young girl, and even before they actually start fighting, they have been deprived of their fighting ability. This momentum has simply exceeded the imagination of these mercenaries. Originally, they still had a trace of anticipation and excitement, but now, these mercenaries are only frustrated.
"However, I really need staff now."
Just when the mercenaries thought they were hopeless, Yulian's words made their eyes light up again.
"I will give you a chance, you can stay, and I will hire you to fight for me, but, I have my conditions."
Speaking of this, Yulian stopped. He carefully observed the mercenaries, then frowned frantically, and set his sights on the furthest pair of mercenaries.
They are the largest number of members here, a total of fifty people, all soldiers. What caught Yulian's attention was the armor that was passed on them. It should be known that although mercenaries are engaged in group operations, they do not have the habit of forming a system. Especially in terms of armor, most of them are suitable for what to wear. They will only use some decorations, patterns or flags to show and establish their own group. But these people are different. They wear the same type of armor and carry the same standard weapons-even the equipment is exactly the same. Two long swords are hung around the waist, and a long metal bow is carried on their backs. Behind him. This doesn't really look like a mercenary style. You know, after all, what everyone is good at is different. The weapons that are useful to some people are nothing but waste to others. Moreover, these swordsmen now use double swords, that is to say, they are good at this.
If one or two people use double swords is understandable, but fifty people also use double swords, then it can only be said to be the result of practice. This kind of exercise is definitely not what the mercenary regiments will do. Most of the mercenary exercises are on their own. The large mercenary regiments will conduct some tactical exercises, but they will never ask what kind of weapons each member uses.
So, where do these people come from? Who are they?
Yulian's gaze paused for a moment before moving away, and then he settled down and continued.
"My condition is that you have to obey my orders and train according to my methods. I will give you the strength of a mid-level swordsman within a month! And, I will also give you enough rewards, even for You prepare weapons! However, I have my conditions, that is, you must sign a three-year employment contract with me! Within three years, you can only fight for me! You are not allowed to leave or run away, otherwise, I don’t guarantee that his head will grow on him safely."
If the mercenaries were still a bit surprised, then, the words of Yulian almost immediately set off an uproar among the mercenaries! Every mercenary who heard Yulian's words had only one thought in his mind.
Intermediate! !
The mid-level field is not difficult, but it is not easy. Many people have tried it, and many people do not even have the strength to try it. Although these mercenaries also have a lot of combat experience, they have not been able to awaken the power of the soul. Reality is not a game, and it is impossible to upgrade and change jobs only by accumulating experience, so many of these mercenaries have already given up their efforts to impact the mid-level. And there are more such people who came to the territory of Yulian.
After all, in the view of mercenaries, there is no war in the Twilight Forest. Even if you recruit mercenaries, there will be no particularly fierce battles. Coupled with the high salary, they will choose to come here. Trying to live a drunken life. Many of them have been desperate and have given up their efforts, but now, Yulian's remarks have made those mercenaries who have given up hope to rekindle hope!
Intermediate! Intermediate! Within a month, let them have the strength of intermediate swordsmen!
This is enough to make any swordsman move! !
"Dear Lord Lord, I have a question!"
But at this moment, there was also an enquiry from the noisy crowd.
"Excuse me, can you guarantee that we can become an intermediate swordsman? Also, is this training dangerous?"
"Of course I can guarantee."
Youlian's answer was full of confidence, which is not surprising. In the era of chaos, there are many similar potentiating potions, and there are many alchemists and combat masters among their maids. Under their education, if these people While training on the side of medicine while still not reaching the intermediate level, then they might as well be killed.
"And, I can tell you clearly that this kind of training is very dangerous. If it fails, it is very likely to face death."
Hearing this, O'Falil frowned, and she hurried forward, pulling Rajulian's clothes. Anyway, he is in desperate need of manpower right now. When O'Falriel wanted to come, these people would come easily, so they should be brought in slowly, and when they got on the thief ship, it was not too late to make the facts clear. But now, this lord has directly put the stakes in front of them, saying that it is likely to die. Isn't it obvious that it will make people retreat? Who is not afraid of death? But soon, scenes beyond O'Falli's imagination appeared. After hearing Yulian's answer, these people were even more crazy.
"I will! Master!"
"I do too! Do you have any orders please do so!"
"Me too! Sir, if you can really make me an intermediate swordsman, I can even not pay!"
Hearing the cry of these mercenaries, O'Fallar opened her eyes in surprise. She couldn't figure it out at all. Why do these people know that there is such a big risk and they still want to join?
"You don't understand them, Miss O'Falil."
And at this moment, Judy standing beside saw O'Falir's doubts.
"For these mercenaries, this is the best way."
"the best way?"
"Yes."
With that said, Jutti nodded slightly.
"I think you may have forgotten that mercenaries were born to make money for their lives, that is to say, they might have given their lives for a few gold coins. For these people, the threat of death is just commonplace. Perhaps in your It seems that this is a high-risk transaction. But it is not the case for these mercenaries. You are not a warrior, and you do not understand how important it is for these people to awaken the soul. It can even be said that awakening the soul Power is the lifelong pursuit of every warrior. They have paid everything they can for this. Life is a price they can accept. If they do not meet your lord, then these people will never be able to awaken the power of the soul. But now, they have this possibility, and what they have paid is just what they should have paid when pursuing this path."
Judy turned her head, staring quietly at Ovalier.
"So, your condition is not a condition at all in their view. If you fail to advance, you will only lose a life. But if the promotion is successful, then the gains they receive will far exceed their losses."
"....................."
O'Fallar looked at the mercenary in front of him, and finally shook his head helplessly.
"I still have no way to understand."
"You don't need to understand, Miss O'Falil."
Yulian shrugged his shoulders, and he naturally heard the conversation between the two. He could guess 70% of O'Fallier's idea. After all, the former princess did not have been a warrior. She didn't know anything about it. Say, what does it mean to advance. When she wanted to come, life is the most precious thing. In this world, there is nothing more cherishable than life. But obviously, not everyone has the same idea as her.
"Now, you can go down and lead these mercenaries to sign a contract. Remember our previous consultations, which is the most strict kind."
"Okay, Lord Lord."
After Yulian briefly explained to O'Falirier, she planned to turn around and leave to reconsider the quirky princess's problem. But at this moment, he found that the largest group of mercenaries was walking towards himself neatly at the moment. Then, among them, a warrior wearing a black iron helmet stepped out of the crowd and came to him, watching him.
"Hello, respected Lord Lord. I am the head of the Iron Fire Mercenary Corps."
The man greeted Yulian with a soldier's courtesy, and then said lowly.
"Maybe a little presumptuous, but I have something to ask you."
"what's up?"
You Lien was equally curious about this eccentric head of mercenary.
"You just said that you can raise our strength to an intermediate level within a month."
"I said that, and I think I said it too. It's very dangerous."
Facing the other party's inquiry, Yulian nodded, he didn't need to lie, and he was indeed telling the truth.
"So, I would like to ask, Lord Lord, do you have a way to raise us to a higher level?"
"Oh?"
Hearing this, You Lian narrowed her eyes slightly.
"what do you mean……………"
"If you can raise our strength to a high level, we are willing to serve you forever and be your official! And I can assure you that you will get the strongest you have never imagined. Great help!"
With that said, the soldier took off his helmet and revealed his face. Seeing his face, O'Falil whispered involuntarily.
That is an orc. (To be continued, if you want to know the future, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
