This is a low-level monster with a naturally docile temperament. It mainly eats grass. After people captured and domesticated it, they originally planned to use it to farm fields or as war riding beasts, but people soon gave up this idea.
Because the camel beast itself is huge and eats an astonishing amount of food, it is impossible to make ends meet if it is used to plow the fields. The prerequisite for riding an animal in battle must be bravery. The camel beast is naturally docile and does not like fighting at all. Once on the battlefield, it will
This time, the camel beast became a useless creature, and gradually few people domesticated them anymore.
However, one year, there was a famine in the central continent, and many people died on the way to escape. However, a family living in the Held Desert came to the city of Münster safely. You know, many people were better than them.
People who lived close by all died on the road, but they who lived far away managed to survive. This has to be said to be a miracle.
After careful inquiries, people discovered that the main reason why they were able to return to Münster safely this time was because of this camel beast.
Although the camel beast is slow in movement and cowardly, it has super endurance, can adapt to any harsh environment, and can always find the right way back. In addition, with its strong body and heavy load, the camel beast has become the ideal choice for long-distance travel.
Best tool.
Visionary people sensed the business opportunities and began to form this fleet of camel beasts, which were used to pull goods or carry passengers for businessmen coming and going.
Ling Fei was also very surprised at the beginning. From his understanding, there are actually many flying spots for giant birds in the city, which is also a convenient mode of transportation. Why would anyone still use this slow and inefficient fleet of camel beasts?
Woolen cloth.
Later, I learned from the passengers of the convoy that there were actually three advantages between the camel beast convoy and the bird flight point.
First, the price is affordable. Basically, the price of a camel-animal fleet is one-fifth of the price of a bird flight.
Second, the load capacity is huge. A camel beast can generally carry about five thousand kilograms of cargo.
Third, convenient handover is the reason why most passengers and businessmen choose Camel Beast. In the central continent, many villages are scattered around major cities, and flight points are generally straight-line flights to major cities.
While more small villages cannot be taken into account, the camel beast fleet does solve this problem perfectly. Not only can guests freely choose where to get off, but if they are businessmen, they can even spend some money to rent one directly.
The camel beast pulled the goods back to his own store, saving the merchant a lot of trouble.
But even though he knew the many benefits of the camel beast fleet, Ling Fei was still a little confused. As a mercenary group that was going to complete the double-A mission, why would he choose to spend time here instead of flying directly to Bobo City first and then transfer there?
Wouldn't it be a great time saver to form a convoy of camels?
He told Nile this idea, but Nile looked at him with a strange look, and then asked: "Boy Lingfei, do you think we are traveling now?"
Ling Fei was a little confused: "Aren't we on our way now?"
Nile held his forehead and was speechless. After a long while, he said: "Boy, remember, we are a mercenary group. The mission of the mercenary group is to make money by doing tasks. From the moment we walked out of Munster City, our mission is
It has already started, just to protect the safety of this caravan."
Seeing that Ling Fei was a little confused, Nile patted Ling Fei on the shoulder and said seriously:
"The first rule of mercenaries is, don't do tasks for the sake of doing tasks. The purpose of doing tasks is to help others, do you understand?"
Only then did Ling Fei know that they had accepted the escort mission of escorting the camel beast convoy.
Nile said with a smile: "As a mercenary, when doing the main task, you will also complete some small tasks such as escorting. Of course, you may feel that such small convoy escorting tasks have low pay and long time.
, not cost-effective. But, you have to understand that in addition to working for the rich to earn gold coins, our mercenary group also needs to consider doing something for the poor."
"Moreover, mercenaries basically spend most of their time in the wild. Many times, this seemingly boring and time-consuming escort mission can become an important means for us to collect intelligence. Don't underestimate this group of businessmen.
, they travel from town to town in order to make money, and everyone is a well-informed eyes and ears. If they are controlled well, they can be a big help to you."
After saying this, Nile suddenly blinked and said with a smile: "The benefits are not limited to these. In addition to saving the travel expenses, you can also taste delicious food from all over the world. Why do mercenaries make money? Isn't it just to enjoy life?
If you are very lucky, you might meet a woman you fall in love with. Do you think this is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone?"
Ling Fei was very surprised by Nile's analysis. Could this be the mentality of a real mercenary? When he thought about it, he understood that this was just a matter of perspective. When you call hard work a
If it is an attitude towards life, all pain will become a process of enjoyment.
But, does he have time to enjoy these joys of life now? Ling Fei couldn't answer. He shook his head and put aside the chaotic thoughts. He looked at the red sun that was gradually setting, and he was filled with emotions.
Anyway, I am already on the road, and I will go faster and faster.
………………
At the top of the moon, under the cold moonlight, hundreds of camel beasts gathered together, while the traveling people set up tents and lit bonfires.
A neatly dressed old man walked out from the front of the camel team and came to the three-headed camel beast where Ling Fei was. He bowed respectfully to Grace and then said: "Dear Lady Grace, the camel team will be here tonight."
We will rest again, please Lady Grace to take all the mercenaries to have dinner."
Grace nodded and replied: "Grandpa Habi, you're welcome, we'll let you go and wait a moment."
Looking at the old man with a respectful attitude and a weathered face in front of him, Ling Fei still couldn't figure out that he would be the boss of this camel team.
He followed the old man to the bonfire where the travelers lived. Several girls had been waiting here. They quickly brought food plates and drinks for everyone, and then retreated with respectful expressions.
"Mr. Nile, why is Grandpa Habi so respectful to Miss Grace?"
This is Ling Fei's long-standing question. In the so-called employment relationship, the salary of mercenaries is actually not very high. After most mercenaries are hired, they are basically ordered around. It is rare to see someone like Ha
For example, the boss treated Grace like a distinguished guest.
