Chapter 5 Leaving
Wright was carrying a heavy sword and leaning on a big tree beside the road to watch his companions quietly.
"Mr. Ming!" "Brother Ming!" Many merchants in the convoy ran over and expressed their gratitude to Wright. Before, Wright was only a level six warrior, but this battle showed the strength of at least level eight!
"Oh!" Wright sighed. Although his strength made these mercenary guards respect and admire him more, there was an invisible gap.
Wright knew that the gap should not be caused by someone who guessed that the revenge was caused by killing the human-shaped monster that night, but by the pure gap in strength.
The level 6 warrior should be the ultimate strength of ordinary mercenaries. When they meet a level 7 strongman, unless they have a very close relationship, such as the leader who has always brought them with them, they will often be more respectful! For example, the level 7 warrior Rodney, who invited "shoulder" to "take the charge", not only has different incomes and status from other mercenary guards. Even if they have to actively integrate, they will feel uncomfortable.
The strong man on the side walked to Wright and patted Wright's shoulder hard.
"Brother Ming is not used to this atmosphere!" The strong man who spoke was the level 8 warrior who used a giant axe to hide. From Wright's perspective, he was also quite powerful. At least the few level 8 warriors who surrounded him and killed him in the imperial capital were not as strong as him!
Wright didn't say anything, and the strong man continued to say it on his own: "Even if we want to take the initiative to integrate, they will be uncomfortable! I was also a mercenary back then. After breaking through level 7, except for a few old brothers, other ordinary friends had completely different attitudes. They felt they should be respectful, but I felt there was a gap." As he said that, the strong man grinned: "But, when he reached this strength, he had to know more friends with similar strengths, right? Rodney!"
Rodney, carrying a heavy sword on the side, had a bandage tied with a left arm to stop bleeding. When he heard the strong man's words, he couldn't help but nod. Although his strength was worse than that of Wright and the strong man, his status was quite close!
"By the way, Brother Ming, and Rodney!" The strong man seemed to remember something. "If you want to meet some friends with similar strengths, why not come to our army!"
Wright and Rodney were both a little surprised, and Rodney couldn't help but speak: "Army! Is Lord Weasley a member of the military? I don't know which legion it is!"
"Haha!" The strong man seemed very proud of his identity, "You Brother Weasley, I am the personal guard of the Iron Dragon General of the Iron Dragon! If you come to the Iron Dragon Army, I will definitely arrange the errands for you!"
This made Wright look a little slanted. In addition to the main armies of the major dukes, the empire also has three legions directly under the royal family and five legions directly under the military headquarters! Any legion has at least 100,000 people, and the position of "General" refers to the leader of the first legion! The "General" of these eight legions is not only capable of being attained by high strength. The strength of the ninth level is just a basic requirement, and it also requires considerable prestige in the army! Of course, if you are good at strategy and have great achievements, you can relax a little!
A "general" personal guard sounds not high, but in fact, under the "general", half of the "general" who have over 10,000 troops are from "general". The difference between those personal guards and generals is mainly whether they have enough prestige and achievements in the army, and they are all at the same level in terms of strength!
Rodney's eyes lit up. If a level 7 warrior in this "Iron Dragon Legion" enters, he will at most be the general's personal guard, but if there is a "general" behind him, he might start with an officer, and the starting point will be much higher!
Wright was just a little surprised. After all, if he was recruited by the military headquarters in the imperial capital, he would be an official position at the level of the general!
However, although he had no idea about this, Wright also dealt with talking with Weasley and Rodney. The "Iron Dragon Legion" has been stationed in Sunset Province for a long time. Although it mainly deals with the monsters in the Sunset Mountains, he should also have some understanding of human-shaped monsters!
Weasley has a good impression of Wright. Strictly speaking, it was only with Wright's help that survived. Moreover, Wright is strong and young, so he naturally wants to get closer. Even if he cannot win over the "Iron Dragon Legion", he must be as close as possible. Naturally, he will not hesitate to tell Wright about the information about these "human-shaped monsters".
"Brothers, it's easy to leave." Old Dark yelled.
All the mercenaries, including Wright and Rodney, stood in front of the cemeteries and bowed in unison to deliver a big gift. In the life of mercenaries, death is very normal. The mercenaries immediately returned to them one by one.
Old Dark, the manager of Apas, led Luther and another mercenary with sixth level strength, and four people walked towards Wright and Weasley, and said gratefully: "Two sirs, thank you. If it weren't for you this time, we were the ones..." At this point, Apas shook his head.
"Brother Ming, and Lord Weasley, thank you for saving our mercenary group this time." Luther, the man from the north, said gratefully.
Manager Apas even carried two bags of gold coins to pay Shellett and Weasley.
Wright smiled and shook his head and refused. After all, this pack of gold coins is only more than ten thousand gold coins at most, and it is still a burden to carry them!
Weasley took both bags without hesitation, but gave these people a good news: "I won't be able to collect my gold coins. If you go south, these winged monsters will only go to the border of the southeastern province at most. As long as you pass the first city, you don't need to worry! In history, they have never been to a further place!"
Hearing this, the few people were very happy. After all, they were most afraid that these monsters would attack them again. That kind of strength was not something that they, a small caravan, could handle!
This time, two strong men hidden in the caravan killed the monster. Will they help me next time? With their strength, they can easily run away.
Of course, the most experienced old Dark also vaguely guessed that Wright killed the human-shaped monster that night, which triggered revenge.
However, they are also trying to protect the caravans, not to mention that even if they want to ask Wright to accompany him to protect him all the way, they don’t have the strength!
Since you know that human-shaped monsters will only reach the border of the southeastern province at most, there is no problem, but in order to prevent being caught up with the monsters, you should hurry up!
"Two sirs, I don't know where you are going next. Our caravan decided to rush to 'Kashshi City' as soon as possible!"
"Hurry your way tonight!" Weasley glared at her eyes, "You can't get into the city at night."
Manager Apas said a little embarrassedly: "This is better, just staying outside the city than being eaten by a monster!"
Weasley thought about it and seemed to feel that the information he gave just now was not worth two bags of gold coins: "Then I'll go with you. The city guard captain of Kasch City is quite familiar with me. I can't enter the city gate, but I can't get some cooked food. I'm tired of eating barbecue and dry food these two days!"
"Thank you, sir!" The few of them were very happy. They were not eating cooked food, they were used to traveling around the world. The key was that there were many level 8 strong men to protect them!
"What about you, Lord Ming?" Manager Apas also hopes that this younger-looking strong man, Ming, has a good relationship!
"Yes, Brother Ming, let's go together, it's better to have a companion!" Weasley also hopes to have more time to contact Wright, and he still really hopes to pull Wright into the "Iron Dragon Legion".
But Wright shook his head: "I won't go. I was planning to go to the Sunset Mountains to practice! I took me a while and left, and circled the mountain path there to the Warcraft Mountains!"
When they heard that Wright was not walking with him, the few were a little disappointed!
In the middle of the night, Wright got up, and after just saying something to a few familiar mercenary guards, he quietly disappeared into the mountain road beside the caravan.
The sunset mountains are rolling and undulating, and poisonous fog often breeds in the valleys.
In a valley with dense poisonous fog, the old man in a black robe asked coldly: "No. 9, No. 36, No. 37, No. 38, No. 39, No. 51 and No. 99, where have they gone!"
In front of the old man was a knelt on the ground and tremblingly replied: "Master, Master, No. 99 was killed, No. 9 took a few others to chase him!"
"Hmph!" The old man ordered coldly: "Let No. 9 come back to see me. If he can't come back, throw his whole family into the transformation pool as nourishment!"
After saying that, the old man walked into a room. Those transformed subordinates were far less important to him than his own experiment.
