407、Borrowers(1/2)
The next day, the setting sun had just risen, and the mercenaries of the Star Mercenary Group had just gotten up, but Zhao Jin and Jiang Fan were already carrying wooden tables and stools, heading straight for the West City!
The west city gate is the main area for mercenary recruitment. There is a spacious open space here, enough to mark hundreds of positions. First comers get it. You can set up your own recruitment point here to recruit mercenaries!
That’s all, it’s the interview!
However, the mercenaries are in disarray. In addition to the four major mercenary groups, other mercenary groups also carve up the leftovers that some large mercenary groups don't want, that is, mercenaries who have no special skills after being washed away by the waves.
They found a good spot by the road, put down the table and stool, and pulled up a flag of the Star Mercenary Group. Jiang Xiaofan and Zhao Jin sat at the table, waiting for the young man who came to look for the future.
When Jiang Xiaofan arrived, there were only two or three people. In less than half an hour, the tables and chairs were already full, and many people were already carrying weapons and looking for suitable mercenary groups to join.
Zhao Jin sat next to him, his face was red from holding back, and sweat was pouring out. Jiang Xiaofan handed him a cup of tea, and he drank it in one gulp and continued to work hard.
That's right, what Zhao Jin is doing is to unleash his martial spirit!
The strength of martial spirit is a symbol of a person's combat effectiveness. Whether a mercenary group has strong people will also become the most eye-catching point when others choose a mercenary group.
"Brother Zhao, please take a rest. I feel that you are very weak now, unlike those rich people who came from Yihong Tower." Jiang Xiaofan took a sip of bitter strong tea and said with a smile.
"Your uncle! I am only twenty-eight years old. I am still single. I have saved enough pills to fight until dawn. You actually call me vain!"
Zhao Jin glared at Jiang Xiaofan angrily, pointed to the roster on the table and said: "The last recruitment was four years ago. Over the years, the mercenaries in the regiment have been running away and dying. Now there are almost a dozen of them.
Just like you, we rescued it and now it’s finally time to expand, so what can we do without some snacks?”
"The leader has already said that we will only recruit a dozen or so. It will take a long time. Why are you anxious?" Jiang Xiaofan shrugged and looked at the names on the roster.
It has been sixteen years since the Star Mercenary Group was founded, and more than a hundred people have joined it. However, it can take anywhere from two to three years, or as short as a few months, before they all leave in the end.
There is no way. If you have enough experience and strength, you will naturally strive for the upper reaches. If you have the ability to join the four major mercenary groups, why should you succumb to a small force and be helpless? The whole army may be destroyed in the wild in one mission.
No one collected the bodies.
Jiang Xiaofan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw someone walking past the table without even looking at him.
At this moment, several people walked into the crowd and immediately attracted everyone's attention!
There were only three people coming, but all three of them were experts at the peak of the Xuanwu Realm. Their martial energy overflowed and instantly covered half of the venue, attracting everyone's attention!
"They are from the Dark Sacrifice Mercenary Group!" As one person shouted loudly, everyone ran towards the three people from the Dark Sacrifice Mercenary Group.
They picked a spot, and the small mercenary group immediately packed it up and got out. The three of them took out the tables and chairs from the storage ring and sat down directly!
The leader looked arrogant, glanced at everyone, and said: "The Dark Sacrifice Mercenary Group is recruiting people. We are only recruiting thirty people today. They must be at level five or above of Yuanwu Realm and have some special skills. Otherwise, don't waste my time."
"Me, me, me! I am at the sixth level of the Yuanwu Realm! Do you think I can do it?" A thin man nimbly squeezed his way through the crowd in front of the recruiter of the Dark Sacrifice Mercenary Group.
The man looked at the visitor up and down, felt the martial aura on his body, and said: "The state is not bad, but..."
The recruiter said, pinched it with his thumb and forefinger, and rubbed it. The thin man immediately understood, took out his wallet and said: "This is the admission fee, and I will give you an extra twenty copper coins as a filial piety."
The man snorted and said, "That's pretty good. Just wait aside. When there are enough people, I will take you to the Dark Sacrifice Mercenary Group."
"Thank you, sir!"
As the man left, the next person also squeezed in. Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiaofan couldn't help but think of the group of mercenaries he led yesterday, and guessed that they also spent money to get in.
But this kind of new mercenaries are actually just used as cannon fodder. After they die, new people are recruited to fill the vacancies in each team.
It's just that newbies don't know too much when they enter the trap. They only recognize these so-called four major mercenary groups, but they are often small forces composed of a group of people with the same views, and they can teach them how to cherish their lives.
The Flame Soul clone separated from Jiang Xiaofan's soldiers early in the morning. At this moment, the Flame Soul clone was leading the mercenaries to practice in the Ten Thousand Crystal Forest, teaching them some simple combat skills.
Dual-tasking gave Jiang Xiaofan something to do during this boring recruiting time.
Not long after, people from the Xia Ke Martial Arts Hall also found positions to recruit, and like the Dark Sacrifice mercenary group, they were surrounded!
However, we only saw two mercenary groups, the Dark Sacrifice Mercenary Group and the Xia Ke Martial Arts Hall, but no sign of the Silver Wind Knights or the Tiger Teeth Alliance.
Jiang Xiaofan had learned that the Silver Wind Knights only accepted those with four lines of strength, so he went directly to the station for interviews and assessments with the four lines of badges.
As for joining the Tiger Teeth Alliance, in addition to going through an interview with mercenary recruiters, one thing that is different from others is that during the internship as a mercenary, one must be able to kill a tiger with one person's strength, whether it is a monster or an ordinary beast.
A tiger can become an official mercenary of the Tiger Tooth Alliance, but the tiger's strength will determine its status in the Tiger Tooth Alliance.
"Hey! How is the welfare of your group? Are you responsible for food and drinks?" A man stood in front of the wooden table and asked in a huff.
Who do you think I signed up for a tour group?
Jiang Xiaofan raised his eyes and glanced at the scumbag in the early stage of Wu Nu, who seemed to be too lazy to do anything, so he didn't want to talk to him. However, Zhao Jin said seriously: "Every month after joining the group, Wu Nu will have fifty copper coins. Yuan
One hundred bronze inscriptions on martial arts and one hundred bronze inscriptions on Lingwu will be decided by the group leader through discussion. Food and accommodation are included, do you want to come?"
"Gee~ It's only 50. I can't stand the 70 copper coins a month next door." He put his hands in his pants and scratched his crotch, then turned around and left.
Zhao Jin had a dark look on his face. Jiang Xiaofan patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brother Zhao, I'd rather be alone than indiscriminate. If such a person is allowed to join the group, the leader will be pissed to death."
"The key is not to be anxious! It will be noon in a while, and we haven't recruited half of them so far. I won't be able to explain it when I get back." Zhao Jin clapped his hands anxiously.
"Don't worry, grandpa didn't give you three days." At this time, Isha's voice came from behind, and the two of them turned to look at the same time.
Yixia was holding a food box and chuckling behind the two of them. Jiang Xiaofan was stunned: "Why are you here?"
"It's getting late, so I'll send you some food, otherwise I wouldn't want to come out on such a hot day."
Isha opened the food box, took out two or three plates of food, and said, "Eat it. Grandpa told you not to be anxious. Recruiting people is not easy."
"Sorry, I don't want to say more, I don't even have the appetite to eat." Zhao Jin sighed and said slowly.
At this moment, there was a loud noise in the distance. The three of them looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people surrounding them. Because they were far away, Jiang Xiaofan could not see the badges on their chests clearly, but
But you can see old acquaintances among them!
It's Lin Shan and Leng Hu!
Jiang Xiaofan originally didn't intend to take these people to heart, but he felt that the target of these people from the Tiger Tooth Alliance seemed to be on their side!
Because their eyes were locked in the direction of Jiang Xiaofan, they walked straight over!
The leader was a man in green clothes. He didn't show off his martial prowess, but Jiang Xiaofan could feel that this man was extraordinary in strength. He was at least a master of the Earth Martial Realm.
A group of five people had already arrived in front of Jiang Xiaofan. Jiang Xiaofan could also clearly see who was coming. Leaving aside Leng Hu and Lin Shan, the man in green was of a very high rank because Jiang Xiaofan could feel the ferocious tiger head badge on his chest.
The power of the silver pattern emitted cannot be faked. It is a special material that can only be made by the officials of the Southern Territory.
It has the same meaning as the weapons or tokens forged from Northern Xinjiang Dragon Gold. The higher the content, the more obvious the power it emits, and the higher its natural status.
The man in Tsing Yi had a pretty face and was a young boy. He clasped his fists at Zhao Jin and said, "Look for the deputy commander. I just came from your regiment and came to visit Commander Xiang Zhu. I didn't know you were here."
.”
Compared to the Dark Sacrifice mercenary group and the mercenaries from the Xiake Martial Arts Hall, the Tiger Tooth Alliance mercenary group is quite decent and has a good tone of voice, so Zhao Jin was very polite and said: "You should be the deputy leader of the Tiger Tooth Alliance Qinghu, right?"
, I have admired my name for a long time, do you have anything to do with us?"
At this time, a young man emerged from the crowd. It was Xiaoshan, a mercenary from the Star Mercenary Group. He quickly came to the front and explained: "Just now, Captain Qinghu had a chat with our captain and asked Jiang Fan to
Go out with them on an adventure mission, which is a level three difficulty mercenary mission."
Zhao Jinyi frowned. Even though he was a powerful man, he still had this in mind. The Tiger Tooth Alliance came to Jiang Fan in person and asked him to go on a mission with him. Apart from Duanlong Mountain, there would probably be no other place!
Jiang Xiaofan's expression did not change. He already understood the intention of the Tiger Teeth Alliance. It was just Dragon Muscle Grass. He secretly calculated that there were still five Soul Pills left. Jiang Xiaofan had only returned to the late Lingwu strength. Last time, because of Guo Yingjun's reasons
I'm leaving in a hurry. If I go to Broken Dragon Mountain with the Tiger Tooth Alliance this time, I can look for an opportunity to look for Dragon Soul Grass!
"Since the leader said it, I don't care. The key is Jiang Fan's wishes." After saying that, everyone's eyes were focused on Jiang Xiaofan.
"Brother Jiang Fan, don't worry, our Tiger Tooth Alliance has touched 200 people this time. They are all elites. They will be safe and worry-free on the road."
Qinghu smiled and then said: "In addition to the commission, if we can get what we want, I can give you one-third."
Being looked at by Qing Hu, Jiang Xiaofan raised the corner of his mouth and smiled slightly: "Captain Qing Hu, you came to me personally, which flatters me. I have accepted this task. When will we leave?"
"Sooner rather than later, if you are willing to take on this mission, we will leave now!"
"No problem, let's go!" Jiang Xiaofan didn't waste any time. After all, he could take one-third of the harvest, and there were more than two hundred people accompanying him, so it would definitely not be a loss.
Jiang Xiaofan and Qinghu walked towards the city gate together. Lin Shan was walking side by side with Jiang Xiaofan. He smiled and said, "I didn't expect that your strength has improved a lot after not seeing each other for a few days."
Jiang Xiaofan still had a good impression of Lin Shan. Although there was a fight in the ring, he knew that Lin Shan was different from those who tried to seize the ring.
"I'm so afraid of death, how can I survive if I don't practice hard?" Jiang Xiaofan grinned and replied.
"If you plan to join the Tiger Teeth League, I will definitely welcome you." Lin Shan said with a smile.
Jiang Xiaofan shrugged: "Although I just joined the Star Mercenary Group not long ago, it's not good for you to poach people like this."
The two looked at each other, smiled, and continued walking forward!
…
Recruitment location.
"The Star Mercenary Group actually has such a good relationship with the Tiger Teeth Alliance! With a backer, it's much better than those small mercenary groups!"
"Yeah! It looks like we're hiring! I'm going to give it a try!"
"Count me in!"
"I'll try it too!"
A group of people surrounded the Star Mercenary Group. The Tiger Teeth Alliance just came up to chat for a few words and borrowed one person to instantly turn the place where no one was interested just now into a very lively place!
Zhao Jin was too busy for a while, so he grabbed Xiao Shan and asked about the information of the applicants and screened the talents.
