Chapter 380 Preparations(2/2)
While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the gate of Vizeme Manor, but both of them were wearing ghost cloaks and were in a state of invisibility.
As the merchants left one after another, the bustling scene of crowds of people was no longer here.
But it doesn't mean that this place has become an empty ghost land again. There is still a very stable group of people here.
These people are not loyal fans of ghosts, but a group of professional mercenaries. They have only one purpose, and that is to make money and conquer Vizeme Manor.
During their exploration, they reached a tacit understanding with Gavin.
In order to keep them.
Gavin increased the number of treasure chests in the manor, reduced the difficulty of obtaining them, and increased the types of treasures, including all kinds of bits and pieces.
It could be a small piece of top-notch equipment (for ordinary people or low-level warriors) worth a hundred gold.
Or it might just be a warm meal or a symbolic souvenir.
On average, the amount of commissions they receive from other employment tasks is a little higher, but it is relatively limited.
People always have to eat!
Simply relying on love to generate electricity will not last long. Providing them with stable income is the long-term solution.
In other words, they were working for Gavin in disguise.
It's just that what they provide is not their own labor force, but their own fear.
There are not many of these special mercenaries, only about three hundred.
In addition, there is a wave of special permanent personnel - the paladin apprentices of the Hammer of Holy Light Monastery, about fifty people.
They didn't come here for the treasures. Wallon used this place as an apprentice training base, allowing them to gain experience in facing ghosts.
In Valon's words, the situation here is scarier than when facing most ghosts, and the various traps are more complicated and more sinister. As long as they can clear this place, it means that they can deal with most situations where ghosts appear in the future.
In view of the unique relationship between the two forces, these Paladin apprentices are both trial personnel and Gavin's employees, assisting the special mercenaries in soothing their emotions and helping them recover better.
