As a nobleman born and raised in Aogu City, the president of the mercenary union, and the current head of the spy family among the four major families, Sergio seemed very irritable at the moment.
Since it took over the mercenary union, "order and stability" has been its ultimate goal. And after years of operation, at least this is what the mercenary union headquarters in Aogu City looks like.
However, recently in the Miracle Plains, there have been frequent reports of mercenary groups being robbed and killed. This sound has even reached the ears of King Ogu.
Mercenaries are second only to civilians in terms of base. Most of them cannot reach the passing line of high-level professionals, but they are far more powerful than ordinary people.
As a link between the major principalities and even various races. Although its strength is uneven, it is better than the amazing number and hard work.
To put it bluntly, the work of mercenaries is very simple. They accept tasks from unions in various places, then complete the tasks and harvest gold coins. As for the risks involved, they range from death to disability.
"Come here, send a pair of mixed professionals into the Miracle Plains. If you can't catch the criminal this time, there's no need to come back." Sergio said in a deep voice.
At this time, just before dawn, Aogu City woke up like a giant beast, its internal organs contracted and relaxed, and countless people were excreted into the streets and alleys.
Boom is making breakfast. Although his craftsmanship is not as good as Rikka, it is an agreement between himself and the other party. My brother is a human being and my sister is also a human being. One person cannot be asked to take care of the housework forever.
"Get up quickly, you will turn into a pig if you continue to sleep." Boom returned to the attic carrying some burnt fried eggs and sausages.
"Hey, brother, I'm so annoying. I'm not a pig." After hearing this, Rikka stood up slowly, but she had no intention of getting out of bed.
Although Boom was helpless when he saw this, he also knew that the other party had paid too much for this family, and it was not an exaggeration to call him the head of the family. At least most of the gold coins used by the two of them now were earned by Rikka.
After the meal, Rikka left as usual. In the past half a month, countless souls died under her double blades, and the harvest was naturally amazing.
Now she no longer has to worry about that hunger, and even the magic crystals her brother needs for training have doubled. Although Boom was curious about how fast Rikka was making money, he didn't ask too much. Growing up is always lonely.
, blindly helping is often counterproductive.
Walking on the Miracle Plain, Rikka hunted wild beasts as usual, and occasionally made deals with nomadic tribes. But now these were just a way to hide from others, because she was observing every mercenary group that passed by.
.
However, Rikka has also discovered problems recently. Perhaps it is a side effect of his frequent robberies and killings. Most mercenary groups today are far more cautious than before.
But she was not surprised by this. In her eyes, this situation was just like the previous herds. As long as you wait patiently, there will always be new prey arriving.
The midday sun was warm and dazzling, and Rikka was sitting on the edge of a forest, enjoying lunch. Compared to the dull atmosphere of the black market in Ogu City, she preferred this feeling of being with nature.
A total of five mercenary groups passed by today. Although Rikka is confident of winning, she is not confident of completely annihilating them. In her eyes, it would be perfect if they all died, and leaving them alive would be a hidden danger.
Therefore, she did not take action. She was still waiting and watching. She hoped to meet a mercenary group with less than ten people as soon as possible.
After thinking about it, a few black spots vaguely appeared in the distance. Rikka stretched her neck, and then a cruel smile appeared on her face.
This is a mercenary group composed of five people. Judging from their appearance, they are fighting three methods and two. The nervous look on their faces proves the value of the items being escorted.
However, Rikka did not rush out directly. This is how growth is, and it can only be remembered after experiencing it personally. Days of fighting taught her countless principles, and being cautious is one of them.
The five-person team walked slowly through the forest. Rikka, who was hiding not far away, changed into a black robe. After confirming again and again, she quietly appeared.
"It should be this person. Get rid of him quickly. Mr. Sergio is waiting for us." The old man at the head of the five-person team said indifferently after seeing Rikka.
Rikka, who was planning to read out the opening remarks, now had a very bad premonition. At least the mercenary group in front of her felt very dangerous to her.
"Haha, I didn't expect that the murderer who was rumored to be a miraculous person recently turned out to be a little baby." A man dressed as a warrior pulled out a long sword, but the expression on his face was very contemptuous.
"Are you here to catch me?" No matter how stupid Rikka was, she now knew what the other party meant.
"No, no, no, we are just a mercenary group with only five people. This time we are escorting a batch of high-grade magic crystals to the Principality of Zeon." The old man at the head glared at the man, and then turned his hands and conjured two high-grade magic crystals.
Jing. He is very afraid that the other party will suddenly run away, and he is even more afraid of unnecessary troubles.
"Oh, you can die then. Dead people don't make mistakes." Rikka smiled. Although she knew that the other party was not kind, the magic crystal could not deceive people.
Not long after, she was fighting with the two warriors. With the advantage of her steel skin, Rikka always had the upper hand and even cut off the arms of two of them.
When the three magicians who were watching saw this, they hurriedly took out their staffs. The old man took the first step forward and whispered a spell.
"The light of the scorpion tail, the wolf spider cave, the stalagmites buried deep in the earth, the huge fangs that pierce everything, in my name, the earth stabbing technique!" As his voice ended, the roots contained earth magic power.
Spikes appeared at Rikka's feet, followed closely by two wind birds and three water snakes.
The only surviving warrior wanted to fly back when he saw this. But because he was tired of dealing with Rikka's attacks, he was eventually surrounded by three magic attacks.
Boom! The water snake and the wind bird collided to create billowing white mist, which was then mixed with soil and turned into black rain. The last warrior died under the attack of his companions without leaving any last words.
The fog gradually dissipated, and the expressions of the three magicians changed from the aloofness at the beginning to shock and horror.
"This is the new robe I bought yesterday. It cost two gold coins." Liuhua lowered her head and looked at the black robe full of holes on her body with some distress.
"Impossible, who are you! You are not afraid of magic attacks!" the old man at the head said angrily.
"What? Something to kill you!" Rikka replied calmly, raising her feet and slowly walking towards the three of them.
Wind blades, water spears, boulders...the three magicians took turns casting the spells they had learned, but the opponent's footsteps were still slow and steady.
The hands that had transformed into short blades at some point were hanging at both sides of the body. Except for occasionally resisting some attacks on the face, they remained unmoved.
The tan skin is like the forbidden magic stone, and it seems that all magic is ineffective on it, at least that's what the three people in front of me think.
Gudongdong! The last head fell to the ground. Rikka skillfully groped for all the valuables. Of course, the two high-grade magic crystals had already been taken into the dimensional space by her.
After finishing everything, she quickly ran towards Aogu City, but the thick smoke behind her lingered for a long time.
"Lord Qi, the man sent out has been confirmed dead." An old slave bowed and reported the news to Sergio.
"Three high-level magicians and two high-level warriors died like this? Where is the murderer? Where is the murderer!" Sergio smashed the wooden table after hearing this, and a faint light of fighting spirit emerged on the surface of his body. "The murderer is missing!" The old slave replied timidly.
"Go down and tell all the mercenary groups to be careful. I suspect that some master is teasing us. I don't care about this matter. Since the other party is so powerful, let others worry about it!" Sergio was a little irritated.
