Inside the iron-walled fortress, which is dominated by imperial mercenaries.
All the mercenary groups have received a big deal that is hard to refuse, but this deal does not come from the empire, but from outsiders.
Those outsiders who overthrew the rule of Neverwinter overnight!
The entire empire has maintained a strong and large number of mercenary teams due to foreign wars for many years.
These troops mainly come from the mountains and remote villages of the empire, and there is even a tradition of all men in the village working together as mercenaries.
They serve the empire, but they are not loyal to the empire.
After seeing the strong strength of the Cult of Kosmos and the promise of the envoys, these mercenary leaders made the right choice when faced with the boxes of gold.
The imperial ambassador woke up from his sleep and was dragged directly from the bedroom by these rebellious mercenaries.
"What are you going to do? You rude fellows."
Ambassador Bender shouted loudly and glared at the four mercenary leaders in front of him.
"Do you want to take advantage of the situation and try to get the empire to increase your bounty? No, that's impossible. You just increased the bounty last month." The ambassador shook his head, obviously treating this as an ordinary mutiny.
This is also the usual method of these mercenaries who are increasingly traveling.
But this time it was beyond Ambassador Bender's expectations.
These mercenaries have been bribed and are ready to find another buyer.
Ambassador Bender became the first gift the mercenaries gave to the Cult of Kosmos.
"Bump!" The leader of the mercenary captain laughed ferociously and punched Ambassador Bender to the ground, and then said: "You stingy empire, I will quit!"
"That's right!" The other mercenary captains agreed: "Let the empire play its own game. We now have a new sponsor, and the price they offer is twice as much as yours!"
"Does the double price make you willing to bear the wrath of the empire? You untouchables, don't forget that in the eyes of the empire, you are just a bunch of dogs. If you have angered the empire, you will never be able to get away with it."
"Touch!" The mercenary captain stepped on Ambassador Bender's head again to stop him from continuing to curse.
"Haha, the anger of the empire?" The mercenaries laughed wildly: "It's better for your empire to seek its own blessings!"
"That's right, wish yourself well. We have taken refuge with the Cult of Kosmos, which destroyed the city of Neverwinter, and we will leave here soon. If your empire wants to retaliate, it will also face the soldiers of the Cult of Kosmos.
Horses have nothing to do with us!"
"That's right." This is the reason why the mercenaries are really willing to join the Cult of Kosmos. After taking the money, they don't have to fight on the front line. They only need to go to the rear, enjoy generous treatment, and maintain local security.
Such a beautiful thing, why not do it?
While the mercenaries were waiting anxiously, there was a sound in the sky.
"Look! Look, it's a giant dragon, it's a giant dragon!" Hundreds of mercenaries shouted loudly in the square inside the fortress.
Ambassador Bender smiled: "It's our country's dragon knights, hahaha, you are finished."
"Shut up!" The mercenary captains had all heard of the Dragon Knight's reputation and couldn't help but feel anxious secretly.
"Brothers, even if they are Imperial Dragon Knights, there is nothing to be afraid of. Aren't they still going to get tired and die? After forming a battle formation, we have no way out!"
The words shouted by the mercenary captain through the magic amplifier made the other mercenaries quiet down. These were veterans who were used to a life of licking blood with their swords. At first, they instinctively panicked after discovering the giant dragon, but when they waited
After thinking about it, he picked up the weapon according to his usual training.
It is not the style of mercenaries to sit back and wait for death.
In the air, standing on top of a giant golden dragon, he looked at the mercenaries below and said softly: "It seems that the way we appeared on the stage scared them."
"Look at me." The white-faced scholar gently shook his paper fan and jumped off a black dragon. His white shirt moved with the wind, as free and easy as a swordsman.
"Shoot!" The mercenaries did not recognize the white-faced scholar, nor did they understand his romantic aura. They saw the opponent coming closer and hurriedly issued an order to attack. Suddenly, more than 300 powerful ballistae in the entire fortress fired crossbow arrows.
.
"I can't afford this generous gift." The white-faced scholar flicked his paper fan, and a hurricane flew over, wrapping it up. Those crossbow arrows immediately lost their accuracy when they hit the hurricane.
"Huh?" Just when the white-faced scholar was feeling proud, he suddenly saw a person below him bursting out with strong fighting spirit. He slowly aimed his sword at him, and then turned into a meteor and slashed him over!"
"Cloud Shield!" The hurricane was broken, and the man slashed with his sword, but was blocked by the sudden appearance of the cloud shield.
Zhu's spiritual sword stopped the strong man and asked: "Good sword, who are you?"
"Deputy Commander of the Nightingale Mercenary Group, Cross." The mercenary paused from his rapid pace and answered calmly without even taking a breath.
"Not bad." Zhu Zhu collected the weapon and said, "If you are willing to join our Cult of Kosmos, I am willing to be your recommender."
"It seems that you are our buyers." Cross also put away the sword and turned back to signal, asking the following to cancel the alarm.
"It seems that our buyers are really good. They have even recovered the Dragon Clan, which has always lived overseas and refused to accept the king's status." The mercenary leaders were very excited. Now they can be said to be tied to the Cult of Kosmos.
Seeing that the Cult of Kosmos actually had a dragon clan among its subordinates, Ambassador Bender looked extremely ugly.
He shouted to himself in disbelief: "Illusion, all this is an illusion! How can there be other races recognized by the dragons besides the empire!"
"Dragon Empire, it seems that the name will be changed in the future." A mercenary leader laughed.
As they got closer, Ambassador Bender could see it very clearly this time.
Those giant dragons are all genuine giant dragons, exuding a heart-stopping dragon power.
And unlike the ordinary red dragons in the empire, the hundreds of giant dragons that came this time included golden ones, black ones, and some purple dragons and brown giants that were rare in number but exuded stronger dragon power.
dragon.
They landed in the square and drove down.
He glanced at Ambassador Bender and said, "You have done a good job. Now you can take him to the City of Neverwinter, where you will find your other half of the bounty and your work."
"By the way, do you know that Cross?" Zhu Zhu suddenly added.
The mercenary leader did not dare to show any temper in front of Zhu, and said respectfully: "Of course I know."
"Oh?" Zhudao said, "Tell me about it."
"He is a legend in our mercenary world. It's a pity that he is a bit old-fashioned. Just because the leader is his savior, he would rather stay in the Nightingale Mercenary Group with little potential. We can't poach him.
ah."
"Really?" Zhui whispered, but in his heart he was thinking about reporting this information. Cross, his combat power should be at the peak of a saint. Considering that he is only over 40 years old, given time, he may not be able to
Can't be a legend!
"Evacuate everyone from this fortress!" The white-faced scholar said to the other mercenary leaders: "If you need any help, please ask as soon as possible. Those giant dragons are idle anyway."
"Well, sir, after we retreat, what if the Centaur clan suddenly attacks? Those bandits have always been trying to rob our human clan's property and beauties."
"Centaurs also want to rob human beauties?" The white-faced scholar flicked his paper fan, his eyes flashing with blazing light.
"That's right." The mercenaries nodded one after another: "Sir, you don't know, these centaurs are the first-class promiscuous tribe among the orcs, and their fertility is extremely special. They will not give birth to children with foreigners.
Half-orcs, half-elves and other freaks, whether they are centaur men or women, as long as they give birth to children, their offspring will definitely be centaurs."
"Oh, that's interesting, but I heard that the most difficult ones among the orcs are the werewolves."
"Sir, although the werewolves are difficult to deal with, they are not bordering our fortress after all. If they are a headache, they are only a headache for the southern provinces of the empire," the mercenary said.
"Haha, that's right." The white-faced scholar nodded slightly and did not continue the discussion with the mercenary.
After the arrangements were made, more than a dozen of the Chosen Ones stood together in the hall inside the fortress.
Within the magic image, Bai Yunfei's clear figure was teleported over.
"Sir Bishop, people in this world really have no sense of nationality, and even the idea of country is extremely vague. Our gold coin offensive has achieved an initial victory."
"In a medieval country that used gold as its currency, no nobles or civilians could refuse tons of gold placed in front of them." Bai Yunfei said with a smile: "Everyone, I have to tell you some good news."
"The two imperial regiments outside the City of Neverwinter have accepted our recruitment three hours ago. At this point, after our discussion, we have decided to transfer the troops originally planned to conquer the empire to you."
"Mr. Bishop, what do you mean?" Zhu Zhu asked cautiously.
"Use the army of the divine religion with confidence and boldness. This time, we decided to first use troops against the foreigners in this world, conquer their territories, enslave their people, plunder their wealth, and then... train our troops by the way."
Bai Yunfei said: "Those foreign races have always controlled the most fertile land and the best mines in the mainland. Their nobles must have hidden countless precious treasures. Haha, we don't need their nobles to join us this time. Do you understand?
.”
"I...I understand." Zhu lowered his head, but his heart was clear. Bai Yunfei clearly planned to snatch away all the wealth of those nobles. However, in this way, the resistance he encountered would also partially protect the legitimate interests.
Or, it has become almost the entire ethnic group.
"I know what you are worried about." Bai Yunfei said: "You must remember my last purpose - to train troops!"
"Your subordinates will all be immortal. When they die on the battlefield, it is not the end. The sanctuary will resurrect them and let them continue to fight for God. Therefore, you are fully capable of competing with the opponent.
, fight against the sea of people, fight against the ability to withstand casualties.”
"Even if he finds an invincible strong man!" Bai Yunfei crossed his hands: "Don't hesitate, just send out the army and drown him."
"Yes!" After hearing that his troops might be limited in size, but their supplies would be unlimited, and they were not afraid of casualties, he bowed one by one and replied with confidence.
"I will be on Earth and wish you all victory!" Bai Yunfei said: "What we do today is for a better tomorrow! Let's work together for our future!"
The chosen ones also raised their right hands and saluted: "God is with us!"ro
