Chapter 2255: King of 傀儡 (6)

Chapter 2255, King of the Kings
After an hour.
"Oh--" Verne squinted her arms and looked at Arthur, who was preparing.
"I don't think the Duke will agree with your request. Are you a wizard or something? What kind of spell did you have on the Duke?" he asked.
"Nonsense." Arthur gave a look at Verne, and put the things he put into one by one: "The adult's things don't go to guess. The Duke of Hillnant will agree to let you be my The adjutant must have his reasons. You will obey."
Of course, the Duke of Hillnant had his reasons, and Arthur only deliberately broke everything in front of this little devil. Verne is the illegitimate son of the Duke of Hilnan, so he has never been trained by the regular knights since he was a child, lest the child become more powerful in the future, and also accumulated merits, and will compete with the children of the room for the capital of the title. Despite this, the Duke may think that it is good to let the child go out with Arthur and gain some combat experience. Otherwise, the illegitimate son of the Duke has been stocked in the castle as a idler. This kid becomes a waste after he grows up in the future, and will be criticized. There is no place for him to live in the castle. .
The Duke had his thoughts, and Arthur certainly had it. The Duke’s other knights who arranged for Arthur might be better, but those people were the duke’s men, and they were placed next to Arthur to monitor him. It is the devil of Verne, although it is the illegitimate son of the Duke, but there is still no movement of the adults, I am afraid that there is no such thing as "monitoring" Arthur. With this little devil as an adjutant, Arthur will be freer in his actions.
He dropped a light breastplate on the table and an arrow with dozens of arrows. These are specially tailored for Verne's body.
"At least put on the breastplate. Otherwise the enemy will shoot you with one arrow, I can't bear this responsibility." Arthur said.
"Good." Verne spit out his tongue. But he also knows that this is not a joke, or honestly put the breastplate on his body. Even if the armor's belt was received the tightest, he still looked a bit loose after wearing this, and his appearance was very ridiculous.
The breastplate is a kind of armor-like thing made of light metal and leather, but it is far from the real knight's plate, which can only prevent the most basic arrow damage. In order to reduce the weight, the metal plate on the chest and abdomen is actually very thin, and the arrow with a strong strength may even shoot the armor. However, the armor near the heart is reinforced with a thicker metal plate, acting like a heart guard, which can effectively prevent the armor from being worn by the arrow. This design is quite reasonable. The chest and abdomen are shot by the arrow. Even if the armor can't completely block the arrow, it will inevitably weaken the power of the arrow. The wearer receives much less damage - and those places Even if the arrow is in the middle, it is at least not so deadly. The heart part should be closely guarded. However, no matter how elaborate the armor design is, it can only protect against long-range attacks. It is still dead by the opponent to cut two swords at close range.
"Do you not use the newly-invented heavy bow?" Arthur asked by the way when Verna picked up the light. He also heard that the power of the heavy bow that was invented in England in the modern era was very powerful. When the war between Britain and France was in the past, it was this heavy bow that made France suffer a lot, leading to the battle of England's invasion of France.
But that was all before Jude appeared.
"Heavy bow? The thing is heavy, the untrained regular knight can't take it at all. It's useless to take it, the recoil is too big, and the shot can make people look up." Verne holds no I installed the arrow on the left and right and tried to feel the hand. The mouth was broken and said: "If I have to put an arrow on the back of the big wolf dog, this is the only bow that can be moved."
"Yes. Anyway." Arthur was too lazy to argue with Verne, and he followed the child's own preferences. He was secretly surprised, and Verne knew that he would follow Arthur next time. He seemed to be calm and not afraid at all. Is it because the nerves of this little devil are so big, or because he has absolute confidence in his own strength, and he is not afraid that he might die in battle?
In any case, since Verne is not afraid, it saves a lot of Arthur's lips and helps.
"So," Arthur was basically ready to see things, and he took up the bag and got up: "Go. Next, I went to the mercenary union to hire a few mercenaries. The Duke of Hilnante said that I would introduce me." A good mercenary, I hope that the people he introduced really work."
auzw.com "The mercenaries are all guys who see the money." Verne also picked up his luggage and followed Arthur: "Wow, it's heavy"
"Get used to it." Arthur replied casually. He did not wear heavy armor himself, but also wore a light armor plus cloth, and at most he put on a highly lightweight arm. In fact, the armor doesn't even need to be worn, but Arthur is eager to rush in front and the other side to cut with the sword. No matter how agile his body is, the arm is scratched by the opponent will affect the ability to continue fighting, so it is difficult to put on it. A little protection. The sacred angel's sword in Arthur's hand only has the greatest attack power when it is unsheathed (expanding the shape of the lightsaber). It is usually a silver sword without a front. This weapon is a perfect weapon for the Mozu to the demon, but it is used to hack people, but the heart is not enough, but also have to use other weapons. Therefore, when "the war against the people", Arthur did not have half of the "war against the devil". He knew this thing himself, and his heart was not very practical. The inadequacies of the human warfare part, in addition to relying on Verne's remote bow to support the firepower to make up, look at those mercenaries.
Two teenagers and a wolf, strolling through the city after out of Hillnant, attracted a lot of strange sights along the way (most of them are concerned about Bediville, after all, a big white wolf is on the street Going up), I soon arrived at the mercenary union.
"Little devil, you are here -" The guard at the door of the union just wanted to say something. Arthur had already handed in a letter of introduction from the Duke of Hillnant. The guard glanced at the Duke’s exclusive lacquer seal on the letter, and then smashed the words that had just been exported. He smiled and said: "I understand, go in. The head of the union is waiting for you."
Arthur nodded and bowed, and led the entourage and the wolf into the union lobby. Before they came here, the Duke should have sent people and mercenary unions early, so Arthur and his team were unimpeded and unpredictable.
He felt very fresh. It can be seen from this lobby that the size of the mercenary union is larger than he imagined. There are a total of ten service windows at the end of the lobby, dedicated to resident staff. Handling the employment of mercenaries and the registration of the return of the mercenaries to complete the mission. On both sides of the lobby are neat tens of rows of billboards, which are covered with various notices, which should be the tasks that free-form mercenaries can pick up at any time.
"Assassin?" Of course, everything in the lobby has nothing to do with Arthur. He just stepped into the lobby. There is a well-dressed union leader in the middle of the lobby waiting. "Is it a matter of talking about hiring mercenaries? Let me come. There are already several groups of suitable candidates, you can choose them."
Not only did someone choose, but there are still several groups to choose from Arthur. The Cavaliers can't help but have a big fire. The influence of the Duke of Hillnant is not small. And I knew the union beforehand, and it really gave Arthur a big face.
Is it right, is it giving Verne a big face? The mercenaries that were prepared for Arthur this time, on the surface, were meant to help Arthur, in fact to protect the child of Verne. After all, this little devil is the illegitimate son of the Duke of Hillnant.
Arthur and his entourage were taken to a place like a VIP room in the union. The decoration of this room was quite luxurious, and the sofa was very comfortable to sit on. Then the person in charge of the union brought in a pile of thick documents, which should be the information of the mercenaries of each group.
Arthur glanced at the information a little, and his head began to hurt. Their technology is backward in this era, and the camera certainly does not. Since there is no camera, it is of course impossible to have pictures of mercenaries. As a result, the so-called information is a variety of densely written descriptions, and the contents of the form are still full-handed. It can be seen that the information of the mercenaries has been sorted out as short as possible, but they are still extraordinarily heavy, and it is estimated that the life stories of the mercenaries are sorted into the documents, and the more achievements It is a brilliant mercenary group, of course, the thicker the information.
It is estimated that all these handwritten and written descriptions will be blacked out. Arthur licked his head irritably and asked casually: "First of all, I want to know one thing: Are these mercenaries all teamed up??"
"There are many excellent mercenaries who like to go it alone in the trade unions. Some mercenaries do not have a fixed team. They can temporarily team up with other mercenaries. But to say that a good mercenary group, you have to count [New Moon Mercenary Corps], [Hot-printed mercenary group], [Virgaard mercenary group] and so on. They have a better understanding of each other because they always have a fixed team action, so they complete the task more than the other. The mercenaries are much more and much higher."
"Oh." Arthur nodded and perfunctored.
"The information of the mercenary groups that have already had tasks in their possession, I have already removed the information for you. The information in front of you is a mercenary group that has not received a task and can act with you. The price has already been negotiated. Are you at a level that you can afford. Is there any mercenary group that you are particularly interested in, Master of Aslan?"
"Well," Arthur looked back and forth in several materials. He couldn't make up his mind for a while, but he accidentally picked up the name on a certain piece of information, and suddenly he suddenly said: "Found, this is Support it. Well, [New Moon Mercenary Corps]?"
"[New Moon]?" The expression of the person in charge has a subtle change in an instant: "Understood, Master Aslan, I will arrange it. But please note that [New Moon] is the top three trump card in the trade union. They also have the right to choose an employer. I will arrange it. It is better for you to meet in person this afternoon. Let the head of the group know you. If the other party refuses your entrustment, please don't be angry, okay? "
"Of course." Arthur replied without emotion: "This is very fair."
