Although he had been mentally prepared before coming, Sivir still felt uncomfortable hearing such a cold response from the leader of the mercenary group he relied on, Aiha Zhaihaluo.
In other words, there is a sense of disillusionment and loss.
She finally no longer has to deceive herself. Aha Zhaihaluo has been a profit-seeking person from the beginning. The reason why she accepted her is just because it does not take too much food to feed a thin little girl, and a little girl
When you grow up, you can become a victim to increase the centripetal force of the mercenary group - just like the women in the group.
In a sense, the women in the regiment who never had to go to war were cheaper than the women in the brothels. She just didn't want to be like that.
After letting out a breath, Sivir's expression became indifferent.
Since the man in front of you only wants money, then give him money yourself.
"Captain Aiha, if you think bringing you wealth can be considered a contribution, I think I can do it, no worse than Sandy."
Aha Zhaihaluo smiled indifferently. In his opinion, the little girl in front of him was just saying some insignificant things to buy time for herself. As for whether the time was used to escape or do other things
thing, then he doesn’t know.
"Although I don't think you can do anything now. After all, you only got the real sword for three months, but...since you were included in the regiment by me, I can be more patient. As long as you
You're not playing any tricks and wasting my precious time.
Tell me, how do you want to prove that you are more useful than Sandy?"
Sivir knew that if he didn't come up with something practical to impress the greedy man in front of him, he might have to answer the question tonight.
"Captain Aiha, I have told you before that before coming here, I was a ruins explorer. If I were not betrayed by my companions, the wealth I have accumulated would be enough for me to do many things.
I know many ways to make money. In fact, you don’t know that before my family was slaughtered by the Saenz people, my father could always use his profound knowledge to find some money buried under the yellow sand.
Ancient city ruins, find treasures among the ruins filled with many mechanisms,
This is also the reason why my family was targeted by the Saenz people. If there had not been a traitor who betrayed my father, the Saenz people would never have robbed and killed us on the way."
Aha squinted his eyes and looked at Sivir, trying to see traces of deception on the girl's pretty face.
"Even so, it's because your father has the ability. As far as I know, you are the only one left in your family who is still breathing. The others have met Nasus, the god of the underworld.
If you had your father's ability, why would you come here to make a living?"
These words can be called very rude, but Sivir can see that this is a sign that Aha Zhailuo is tempted. If the man still deals with him casually like before, that will be troublesome.
.
"Indeed, my family has now disappeared, and I am the only one left, but I have gained the knowledge my father left me, some knowledge on how to dig ancient tombs and how to dismantle ancient institutions without any damage.
It was with this knowledge that I was able to lead the other scavengers to establish themselves, until Myra fled with all the wealth I had accumulated..."
Seeing the mercenary leader Aiha's face become solemn, Sivir did not explain why he did not explain it clearly when he joined the mercenary group, and Aiha did not ask.
Maybe it was something he had learned since he was a child, or it was an ancient book. He didn't need to care about how the knowledge Sivir said was obtained. The key was whether what Sivir said was true.
Does Sivir really have the relevant abilities?
If this is true, Sivir's treasure hunting ability is much more useful than Sandy's fighting ability. There is no shortage of maniacs who can play with knives and risk their lives in the desert, but there is a shortage of treasure hunters who can dig out gold from a pile of sand.
,
"Child, I just want to know if what you said is true?"
Aha stood up, walked a few steps in front of Sivir and touched the girl's head, his tone softer than ever before.
"If you can prove that what you said is true, I promise you, whether it is Sandy or anyone else, I will tell them to stay away...provided you did not lie to me."
Sivir calmly took a step back to avoid Aha's hand, and Sivir said seriously.
"I will never joke with my life, but my talents must be displayed in the ancient tomb... You can't expect me to find the location of the ancient tomb by myself."
Not caring about Sivir's attitude, Aha smiled and shook his head.
"Kid, this is not a problem. There is no shortage of strange and weird hirelings in the market of Roxer.
Especially those elders from Nasramei and the treasure hunting team from Noxus. They never lacked treasure maps. They only lacked servants who could bring them into the tomb unscathed and dig out the treasure safely.
Soldier."
"Then Sandy and the others..."
"Let's do this, you will live in a side house next, and when you prove your ability, I will make those bastards who have ideas about you give up completely."
The side room is an independent room in the stone house where the mercenary leader Aiha lives. It is much better than the canvas tent in the mercenary camp.
"Captain! Commander! Two Noxians are coming outside! They are looking for you by name!"
As soon as Sivir took the key to his room, a mercenary hurried to the door and said something that made Aha Zhailuo's face tense.
"Why did the Noxians find me? Let the guys bring their weapons and go and see together."
Sivir looked startled and quickened his pace to follow.
By the time the mercenary captain arrived at the gate of the station with a dozen ruthless men, a circle of people had already gathered around the two hooded Noxians.
Facing the mercenaries who were drawing swords at each other, the Noxians seemed not to care. This calm and calm look made the mercenaries even more vigilant.
"Put down your knives! What are you doing?"
Looking calmly at the two Noxian men who looked very young, the mercenary captain smiled.
"I am Aha Zhaihaluo. Do you two have any business with me?"
"You can call me Lagruni. I have a very expensive deal here. It depends on whether you are willing to do it or not."
Lagruni patted the money bag on his waist. The sound was obviously different from the dull and crisp sound of silver coins, and Aha was suddenly filled with smiles.
"It turned out to be a distinguished guest, so I said that I heard a magpie chirping on top of my head early in the morning...
Please come with me, both of you. This is not the place to talk. It’s time to leave! It’s time to leave!”
After leading the two of them to the stone house, Aha stopped Sivir who wanted to follow him in.
"It has nothing to do with you here..."
After driving Sivir away, Aha greeted the two Noxians to sit down with some respect.
"I wonder what kind of deal Mr. Lagruni wants to do?"
"Fifty gold coins, I'll buy you a person."
Lagruni got straight to the point and threw the heavy money bag on the table. Aiha opened it and took a look, but it was fifty pieces of imperial gold. His breathing became short for a moment.
He has been living in the city of Roxai for almost twenty years, and all his savings combined are not that much.
With this money, he can even leave the damn continent of Shurima and live somewhere else. He would be crazy to continue fighting in this miserable place.
"Who to buy? Slaves? Or human lives?"
"That girl named Sivir, we want to buy her."
"Sivir?"
Aiha was stunned, and the excitement in his heart cooled down a bit. If Sivir had not come to him just now, he would have kept the bag of money without hesitation, but Sivir just said that she had excavated ancient tombs.
ability,
This bag of money is indeed enough, but what if... what if he comes across an ancient tomb treasure that is more valuable than this bag of money?
What's more, these two Noxians are willing to pay such a high price for Sivir. Does this mean that Sivir is worth more than fifty pieces of imperial gold?
"Sorry, Sivir is a member of the mercenary group and is not a commodity that can be bought and sold..."
Out of the desire to bargain, Aiha cautiously tried a word, but Lagruni reached out expressionlessly and grabbed a handful of gold coins from the money bag. He then clenched his fists and waited until his fingers were loosened. It was expensive and expensive.
The hard imperial gold has been kneaded into a golden ball with an irregular shape and less value than before.
Lagruni casually threw the heavy golden ball on the table, looked at the mercenary captain whose eyelids were twitching, and said calmly.
"If Mr. Aiha is not satisfied with the price we gave, we can discuss it again. Maybe without the constraints of Aiha's mercenary group, Miss Sivir can obtain a free status..."
Saying this, Lagruni was about to grab a handful of gold coins again, but the frightened mercenary leader quickly stopped him.
He was sure that the two freaks in front of him were definitely genuine Noxians. If they provoked each other, he would probably be the one whose head would be crumpled into a ball next.
"Well, I sold it because I didn't know the truth. Sivir, I sold it. I'm very satisfied with the price."
The indifferent Lagruni finally had a smile on his face. He stretched out his right hand and said with a smile.
"Then, happy cooperation."
He held his hand tremblingly, and it wasn't until Lagruni gently contracted his fingers that Aha breathed a sigh of relief.
“A pleasure to work with.”
…
"Sivir, the leader calls you."
"I got it...Brother Sandy, as you can see, the leader came to me with something to do, so he left first."
Gloomy triangular eyes watched Sivir leave, and Sandy's face looked particularly ugly.
If the leader chooses to protect Sivir, then he really doesn't dare to attack Sivir. As the pillar and strongest warrior in the Aha mercenary group, Aha Zhailo's reputation is not just blown away.
"Damn it!"
Back in the stone house, Sivir glanced at the two Noxians who were staring at him, and greeted Aha slightly awkwardly.
"Captain Aiha, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Sivir, unfortunately, you are no longer a member of the mercenary group."
In Sivir's confused look, Aha Zhailo pointed to Lagruni beside him and said in a deep voice.
"You have been sold to Mr. Lagruni by me. From now on, you are Mr. Lagruni's goods. Your life and death have nothing to do with the mercenary group.
Mr. Lagruni, you may now do with this woman as you please."
These words directly made Sivir stupid on the spot. She never dreamed that just after she solved Sandy's trouble, Aha Zhaihaluo sold herself to others as a commodity.
Hope did not last long before she fell into the abyss of despair.
"Captain! This is different from what we agreed! You can't do this!"
"Listen! The content of our transaction is limited to the mercenary group, Sivir, I hope you can understand that sometimes we have no choice."
Sivir lowered his head, holding the weapon at his waist tightly with his right hand, tears filling the corners of his eyes.
"I don't understand, I don't understand why you did this... I thought I was a member of the mercenary group... I thought you were willing to teach me swordsmanship, I thought you accepted me..."
"Innocent girl, what do you think the mercenary group is? Is it your home? Or do you think I should shoulder the responsibility of your father just because I teach you a few sword skills?"
Aha Zhailo decided to teach Sivir one last lesson.
"No! The mercenary group is just a cave inhabited by wild beasts! There is no true love in this cave, there are only a group of wild beasts who will betray their companions at any time for profit!
We are brought together because of our interests, but of course we will hurt each other and fall apart because of our interests!
You shouldn't have had any illusions about me from the beginning. I'm not your father, and I have nothing to do with you. I only took you in because you were so cheap that I didn't need to pay any heartache! Do you understand?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gritting his teeth, Sivir responded word for word.
"I understand, thank you for your teaching."
"Just understand. Now, follow Mr. Lagruni from Noxus and leave my camp."
Knowing he had no choice, Sivir followed Lagrune and the other Noxian to the door and asked one last question without looking back.
"Captain Aiha...how much was I sold for?"
Behind him, Aiha's voice returned to indifference.
"You just need to know that in Mr. Lagruni's eyes, you are valuable."
After walking out of the stone house, facing the complicated looks of other members of the Aiha mercenary group, Sivir silently followed the two of them, wiping away his tears and considering the possibility of his escape.
Let's not talk about whether she can escape from the hands of these two Noxians. Even if she can escape, where can she go? With the broken knife in her hand, she may be easily captured by the slave group.
The world is so big that there is no place to stand.
"Captain Aha Zhaihaluo received fifty imperial gold from us."
"Fifty imperial gold...am I so valuable? It's selling so well that I almost want to sell myself."
Perhaps out of the mentality of breaking things, Sivir, who was slightly broken, actually felt a little happy. Anyway, the current situation couldn't get any worse.
Lagruni added.
"Of course you are not worth so much money, but in the eyes of our master, you are very valuable."
"Your master? Did your master ask you to buy mine?"
Before Sivir's question could be answered, a tall and sturdy figure with three rogue mercenaries stood in front of the three of them. It was the small group headed by Sandy.
"You can't just take Sivir away! She is my woman!"
"You fart! I'm not your woman!"
Sivir was so disgusted that she yelled that she would not be with Sandy even if she was taken away by the Noxians.
