In Canglong Continent, the folk customs are open, and men and women sit together, so there is no need to give way. In Xuanwu Academy, most of the male and female students are mixed, and they are usually more skilled, so they are very equal.
Having said that, in some fields, there are natural barriers and there are more men than women. The mercenary world is one such field.
Mercenaries live a life of licking blood from the tip of a knife. It is said to be a man's world. The scarcity of outstanding female mercenaries is comparable to that of eighth- and ninth-level mysterious beasts. They can only be described as rare.
This point is similar to the espionage field in the 23rd century. The gap between men and women is also very obvious in today's Canglong Continent.
There are five major mercenary kings currently in service in the mercenary world, four men and one woman. The reason why Lihuayu of the Blue Crystal Mercenary Group is famous is largely due to her appearance and her sister Ligeshu.
He is the deputy leader of Lan Jing.
The only two women in the Backfire Mercenary Group are the cook in the kitchen and the laundress who washes clothes for all the men.
A few days ago, Ni Qianjun had announced in front of everyone that he had invited a new alchemist, a female alchemist.
When they heard that there was a woman accompanying them on this mission, the single mercenaries of the Ni Qianjun mercenary group all felt their blood boiling. When they looked at the person, and then looked at the reserved look of Deputy Commander Ni Qianjun,
Everyone also understood that she was the newly invited alchemist.
The expressions on the dozens of men's faces were as if they were withdrawing, disappointed and disappointed.
What catches the eye is a face that can no longer be described as beautiful or ugly. It is half ferocious and half beautiful. But the more so, the greater the visual conflict it brings to people.
"This is the new alchemist. She will be our accompanying alchemist from now on. She will live in the VIP tent next to me." Ni Qianjun didn't pay attention to the expressions of the group of people below him at all, but Yue Jinghua, the general of the group of servants,
Bing's expression was all in his eyes.
There were several glances that were obviously evil, and Yue Jinghua secretly remembered them in her heart.
Disdainful sneers came from the crowd.
Feng Buhui slowly disassembled the crossbow, "Deputy Captain, just because of this person, you rejected the excellent alchemist recommended by Miss Huaxue? Isn't this a joke? Just rely on what kind of elixir she can refine.
, look at her luggage, she’s not here just to play house.”
While noticing Yue Jinghua's ugly face, the male mercenaries of the Backfire Mercenary Group also noticed Yue Jinghua's stunningly beautiful legs.
Not everyone has leg control like Ni Qianjun, but everyone has guessed the reason for Ni Qianjun's unusual care for Yue Jinghua.
Feng Buhui pointed at the luggage that Yue Jinghua brought. They were all useless things, but there were no alchemy tools such as the alchemy cauldron commonly used by pharmacists.
"Shut up, if you hadn't driven away the alchemist last time, why would I have to go through so much trouble?" Ni Qianjun was stared at by a group of men with big eyes and small eyes, and he was very angry.
Feng Buhui is one of his most capable young mercenaries and the first person to support Ni Qianjun. Therefore, his words have some weight in front of Ni Qianjun. Only Feng Buhui dares to speak against Ni Qianjun.
Speaking harsh words in front of others.
However, everyone also knows that Feng Buhui is one of Li Huaxue's suitors.
"Alchemy master is a very core existence. I don't want people recommended by other mercenary groups to be in charge of it. I have emphasized this point repeatedly. I don't want anyone to mention the same thing to me a second time.
," Ni Qianjun said displeased. Based on his understanding of these mercenaries, they would not give up. He must be more careful.
"Deputy Captain, don't blame me, Barbarian, for not listening to me. It's just because the alchemist is very important. I don't want an incident like Vanuri's last time to happen. She's not even a mercenary. If Captain Backfire finds out,
, he will also agree with the brothers' opinions," Manzi scratched his head, somewhat doubtful of Yue Jinghua.
Hearing Manzi talk about Wanuri, the dozens of mercenaries present looked regretful, and Ni Qianjun, who was about to get angry, also showed a bit of sadness.
Vanuri is a young mercenary in the regiment. In the last mission, due to the incorrect prescription of medicine by the team's alchemist, Vanuri was delayed in medical treatment and was forced to have his legs removed, ending his career early.
mercenary career.
It was also because of this incident that Feng Bugui and his gang used a trick to drive away the alchemist from Danlu.
The new female alchemist has no trace of being a mercenary. Every alchemist who joins the mercenary group is at least an old alchemist and has done many mercenary missions.
But Yue Jinghua is obviously not.
There is a saying in the mercenary world that if you are not afraid of opponents who are like gods, be afraid of teammates who are like pigs.
This Blue Diamond mission is long and difficult. No one wants to have another teammate who is holding back the team.
"So everyone here, how can you accept me as the alchemist of the Backfire Mercenary Group, a respected alchemist." Yue Jinghua suddenly spoke, interrupting what Ni Qianjun was about to say.
Discourse.
Ni Qianjun understood what Yue Jinghua meant. If she could not get the mercenaries to accept her, it would be difficult for Yue Jinghua to survive in the Nishihuo mercenary group.
"Successfully arrived at the town of Sabah. With your own strength and the title of two-star mercenary obtained there, you are qualified to cooperate with us and complete this mission." Feng Buhui looked at each other with a dozen other mercenaries.
They glanced at each other and said in unison.
In the end, under the provocation of Feng Buhui and others, Ni Qianjun almost used the group rules to deal with Feng Buhui. However, under the pressure of a group of old mercenaries, Yue Jinghua, who did not want to embarrass Ni Huo, took the initiative to agree.
Feng Buhui’s request.
Accompanied by Ni Qianjun, Yue Jinghua passed through the Sifangxuan Formation of the Shang Kingdom and arrived at Sabah Town, the closest mercenary town to the Shang Kingdom.
The continuous rocky tidal flats and the whining Gobi sword wind are gradually approaching, and the small town of Sabah is clearly visible like a masked beauty whose veil has been blown away.
Sabah Town is also known as Sabah Mercenary Town. For mercenaries in the Eastern Continent, Mercenary Town is a familiar name.
Mercenary town does not refer to a specific town. It is a nickname. It is to facilitate the activities of mercenaries. It is funded and built by mercenary unions and is distributed among various city-states and countries in the mainland. It is also the starting point for the career of all novice mercenaries.
.
The largest mercenary town on the mainland is called Geyue, and its location has never been officially announced to the public. Legend has it that only the best mercenaries have the opportunity to enter Geyue Town, which is also the camp of the top mercenaries.
It is said that at the entrance of Geyue Town, there is a golden cemetery, where are buried strong mercenaries who have made outstanding contributions to the mainland and the mercenary world. Only those who have been awarded the "Mercenary of the Year" by the Mercenary Union
Only those who have the title of "soul" are qualified to be buried there.
Everything about the mercenary town was told by Ni Qianjun before Yue Jinghua came.
The closest mercenary town to the Shang Kingdom is Saba Town, which is a typical northwest town.
It is like a comprehensive inn that provides various services to mercenaries. There is also a branch of the mercenary union in the town to provide assessments for passionate young ladies who want to become mercenaries.
"Actually, you don't need to pay attention to the rumors in the group. I've already taught that boy Feng Buhui a lesson. He won't even think about getting out of bed for the past half month," Ni Qianjun had already persuaded Yue Jinghua several times. Feng Buhui had itchy skin.
Regret, needless to say, I was taught a lesson by Ni Qianjun.
"I have decided. Thank you for accompanying me to the small town of Sabah. You can go back." This secret mission has a long cycle and the corresponding preparation cycle is also very long, which just gives Yue Jinghua enough time.
Complete the mercenary assessment.
"I will accompany you to take the assessment," Ni Qianjun said as he prepared his fists as people came out of the Sifang Xuan Array one after another, including many who knew Ni Qianjun. He saw Ni Qianjun standing with an ugly-looking woman.
When we were together, we looked at the two of them a few times.
The Four Directions Mysterious Formation is a teleportation array that uses mysterious elixirs as energy. There will be a Four Directions Mysterious Formation in every country's capital and big city. It is also a convenient way for mercenaries and mystic practitioners to move around.
"Ni Qianjun, how long can you stay with me? Once or for a lifetime?" Yue Jinghua teased in a relaxed tone, her long dark hair dancing in the sand wind like the strongest branches of the willow, her eyes sparkling.
The corners of his mouth curved into a confident arc, which seemed to have a magical power. It carried an inexplicable power that made people's hearts palpitate, and Ni Qianjun had to soften his attitude.
Ni Qianjun frowned and whispered: "You, be careful. If someone bullies you, take my name."
Yue Jinghua smiled, how could this guy be such a mother-in-law? She strode forward noncommittally, raised her right hand high, and made a gesture like scissors under the scorching sun, "
See you in Polo City in one month."
The desolate desert and the back of the girl walking alone were forever burned into Ni Qianjun's mind at that moment, and will last forever.
No one knew that from that moment on, it was she, the girl who was like a lone wolf in the northern desert, using her unique "V" gesture to slowly kick off the immortal story of a legendary king in the mercenary world.
.
The world is in chaos, heroes are emerging, and the wind in the Gobi is whining like a trumpet before war begins.
Sabah is located at the entrance of Tucker Gobi, the largest Gobi desert in the Eastern Continent. Because the town has the only artesian spring in the Gobi, it was expanded into a mercenary town by the mercenary union about fifty years ago.
.
Every year, countless mercenaries pass by here. The living environment here is very harsh. The Gobi is infested with all kinds of poisonous mysterious beasts, many of which are intermediate-level mysterious beasts. Compared with Baishou Mountain, the environment outside the town is
It is obviously much more complicated, which is why it was chosen as the assessment site by the mercenary union.
Zach is a 23-year-old young man. He is an indigenous resident of a small town in Sabah. He has the appearance of an outsider from the northwest minority. Aboriginal people like him are rare in small towns in Sabah today.
.
After Sabah town was called a mercenary town, most of the people in Sabah town moved out. Most of the remaining people stayed in the town because they wanted to run the mercenary business. A small number of people
Too poor to leave the town. Zach falls into the latter category.
Zach's parents were a pair of mercenaries. After a poisonous insect infestation in a small town in Sabah, both parents were killed, leaving Zach and his fourteen-year-old sister behind. Zach's sister suffered from tuberculosis, and the two had no money.
Depart from Sabah town.
Fortunately, Zach was smart and hard-working, so he quickly found a job in a small town in Sabah. With this job and the stone house left by his parents, the brother and sister could barely survive.
On this day, Zach squatted at the corner of a row of weathered city walls in the small town of Sabah as usual.
At this time, a strange woman walked up from the stone wall at the entrance of the town that was about to collapse at any time.
She didn't bring any luggage, and she didn't have any companions with her. She had an extremely beautiful and extremely ugly face. But these were nothing in Zach's eyes. There were so many missing arms, legs, and faces in the mercenary town.
Broken mercenary.
"That's her," Zach patted his butt and approached the strange woman slowly.
After Yue Jinghua and Ni Qianjun broke up, they walked for a while and finally saw the whole town of Sabah.
Stone houses made of stone can be seen everywhere in this adventure town in the Gobi.
Because there are flying mysterious beasts in the Gobi Desert, and for fear of attracting attacks from the mysterious beasts, the floors in the town are generally low, making the entire Sabah town look like an empty quarry.
There were not many people on the street, and occasionally a few mercenaries with indifferent expressions passed by.
Not far away, a dirty figure followed him. Before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly heard an "ouch" and bumped into Yue Jinghua.
