Soon, Li Huailin and his 11 people arrived at the city near the mission location. This is a city in the southern part of the human empire. It is basically at the southernmost point of the entire empire and is close to the dwarves. The mission location is naturally not here, and it will take longer to walk there, but the city closest to the village is this city, and there is no teleportation array in the village, so they can only walk slowly. Of course, while walking here, Henride can tell Li Huailin and the others what the mission is going on.
Although Henride was the one who could speak the most among them, he didn't speak very smoothly for some reason. After listening for a while, Li Huailin probably understood what the situation was, and the task was officially triggered.
System prompts: AA-level hidden missions to regain the village.
Recapture the village: Help the villagers of Mira Village to recapture the village.
Mission rewards: experience 140,000, 2 gold coins 39 silver coins, reputation points 4000, and special rewards.
There is no prompt on the mission information, that is, to retake the village. However, according to Henride, the actual situation is that this place called Mira Village was originally a small village without any dispute. Everyone lived a very peaceful life. However, recently, troops from unknown places appeared next to the village and began to build camps. Moreover, they not only built camps, but also set up all the training grounds and horse farms on the edge of the village. They even began to occupy farmland for their own self-sufficientness. The living space of the villagers suddenly became much smaller. They were originally poor and the fields were occupied. They really couldn't survive. However, the other party was in the army, and they didn't dare to ask them to argue. They were afraid that they would be rectified directly on the spot, so there was no way for everyone to raise money to go to big cities to find mercenaries to see if they could help them.
By the way, the six people who went to the big city to find mercenaries were hiking from here to the City of Divine Blessing. They walked for a total of 2 weeks before they arrived. When they came back, it was Hongyue and the others who sent the teleportation array. At first they refused to ask for it, but Li Huailin and the others didn't want to take a few weeks to walk back and insisted on sending them back.
"Army?" Li Huailin was originally from the military headquarters. When he heard the army ask strangely, what kind of troops is this? "How many people are there?"
"This..." several old men looked around, and the one-armed old man raised his hand and replied, "I saw that there were about 3,000 people."
"3000..." Li Huailin pondered for a moment. 3000 people are already considered a large-scale team, a formal organization, but where is the organization? The Second Legion is impossible. If the First Legion is now stationed near the main city, it is too far from here, and it is unlikely. The remaining Fourth Legion... is a bit possible, because the Fourth Legion is still in the recruitment. Maybe come here to withdraw the troops and train. Let's take a look before. If you can handle it yourself, it will save trouble.
"Talk about it, you can know the number of soldiers on the other side." Li Hualin asked. The old man named Sadra was able to tell the total number of soldiers on the other side at once, which made Li Huailin a little concerned. After all, ordinary people were frightened when they saw such a large group of soldiers counting this.
"I used to be a reconnaissance team in the army." Sadra on the side nodded, "It's just a long time ago."
"Oh, that's it." As expected, it was the same as I thought. These old men should have also been on the battlefield.
"It's here." As he was speaking, Henride pointed forward and Mira Village had arrived.
Everyone looked up and looked forward. There was indeed a village in front of them. It was a very primitive small village with a medium scale and a common building in the empire. There were about dozens of houses, and the population was estimated to be about a few hundred people.
The village has a very beautiful environment, surrounded by green mountains and clear waters. It can basically be called a paradise, and it is indeed a place worth guarding.
"Everyone, we are back, we are back with the mercenaries!" Henry, who walked to the entrance of the village, shouted at the inside of the village.
However, it is completely different from the scene of the whole village coming to welcome you. The village is quiet, there is no one, and it is quiet.
"What's wrong?" Henride suddenly felt a bad feeling. Could it be that something happened in the village?
Just as I thought about this, an old lady in her sixties suddenly ran over in the village.
"Anna, what's wrong?" Henride, who saw that the old lady's expression was not very good, asked immediately.
"Henride, Sadra, are you finally back?" Anna said anxiously here, "Let's not talk about this for now. Mrs. Weisna fell ill and everyone is there now. Come with me."
"Mrs. Weisna fell down? Hurry up, lead the way." Henride on this side was also anxious and immediately rushed over with several old men with Anna. Li Huailin and others looked at each other and decided to follow.
Following the people in front of me to a slightly larger wooden house. Before they entered the door, they saw a large number of villagers standing at the door, all waiting anxiously at the door. At first glance, the obvious characteristic of these people is that they are old and all the villagers are very old. At first glance, they are basically white-haired old men and old ladies. They were also wondering why they sent a few elderly people to find reinforcements so far. Now it seems that there are no young people in the village at all. They are all old people, so they find a few who are slightly more physically strong.
"Ranzhe...Madam Weisna, we're back." Henriel here pushed away the crowd and rushed in anxiously. The other villagers focused their eyes on Li Huailin and his group, because they were the mercenaries Henriel invited back, that is, the people who could save their village.
"Little Henry..." The voice in the room slowly came out. Although it was a bit sick, the sound still sounded full of energy and a little majestic.
Before Henride and the others could enter the house, there was a riot in the room.
"Madam Weisna, you can't get out of bed." "Madam Weisna, you just took the medicine, don't move."
After a sound, an old lady slowly walked out of the room here. At a glance, she knew that the old lady was old and was probably over 80 years old. However, she was very energetic and her waist was straight. Although she lived with crutches, she had a faint sense of majesty.
"Madam Weisna, why are you out? Come in and rest quickly." Henride said immediately.
"Yes, Mrs. Weisna, hurry up and go in and rest." The old man next to him also said immediately.
"Shut up!" Mrs. Weisna, who was here, raised her voice and shouted, then immediately started coughing. Another old lady next to her immediately patted her back, but the scene immediately became quiet, and it seemed that what she said was very useful.
"This... these are the mercenaries Henry invited back. They are the most powerful mercenaries, right?" Mrs. Weisna asked at Li Huailin and the others.
"Of course." Li Huailin smiled slightly and said confidently.
"I am... the wife of the former village chief. You can call me Mrs. Weisna." Mrs. Weisna here said simply, "My husband has passed away, and our son has succeeded the village chief, but now he is not in the village, so I am the one who is in charge of the matter for the time being..."
"Hello, Mrs. Weisna." Hongyue and the others immediately greeted Mrs. Weisna.
"You should have heard from Little Henry that in the two weeks they went to find you, the military camp here has become even more aggressive. Look there, the military camp has been slowly built. If this continues, our village will be occupied. So, please help us, I will kowtow you here..."
"Oh... no, no... Mrs. Weisna please don't do this." Hongyue on this side hurriedly went up and grabbed Mrs. Weisna. This guy was in his 80s and was sick. Then he kowtowed to you. This was too exaggerated. He quickly stopped him, "Don't worry, old man, we will definitely do our best."
Li Huailin was looking at the military camp next to him. It was indeed the same as Mrs. Weisna said. You can see the military camp now when you stand in the village. Just to the east of the village, the walls have been expanded into the village, which of course has greatly affected the lives of the villagers.
Li Huailin took a little attention and the situation that can be seen now is that this military camp looks like a human camp, similar to the imperial team's military camp. It is basically certain that it is the imperial army, but what is a little strange is that there are no flags hanging in this military camp. Generally speaking, the military flags of which army belong to ordinary military camps must be hung out, otherwise it is not a problem of not indicating identity. This is an act of violating imperial laws and regulations. However, this military camp is not hung out. I don't know if the military camp was not built or deliberately did not hung out.
"It's a bit troublesome for the army." The summoned Jade Emperor here walked to Li Huailin and said, "According to the previous setting, an ordinary soldier has at least level 60 or above. If there are 3,000, we can't deal with it at all."
"Indeed." Li Huailin nodded, "But the system can't give us tasks that cannot be completed. Although AA-level tasks are difficult, they are not too unsuccessful. I think we should go and see what the situation is."
"Yes." Summoning Jade Emperor nodded.
