Chapter 181 Settled in

"Hahaha, I came to visit you again. This time I was invited to come to Pompeii to build an outpost."

The visitor was the senior knight of the Saber-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group, the Knight of Orleans. This Knight of Orleans impressed Luther very deeply. He was big, bold, and had a thick beard.

His whole body is full of the style of European and American warriors.

He was accompanied by three intermediate knights, eight junior knights, and some ordinary mercenaries.

In the mercenary group, the main force in the battle is the knight, and the ordinary mercenaries are only responsible for logistics, such as setting up camps and so on.

When Luther first cooperated with the Sabre-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group, he placed an advertisement and asked the Saber-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group to set up an outpost in Pompeii.

Because mercenaries will act as adventurers from time to time, but adventurers enter the forest to get all the good things in the deep forest, which is called trying their luck.

Catch whatever you encounter.

Mercenaries are usually entrusted by their employers to go to the endless deep forests to find precious herbs, magical beasts, ores and other materials.

This kind of employment is also a major business of the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group.

In the past, the outpost of the Saber-toothed Tiger Mercenary Group was located in another place on the fringe, but because Luther rescued Mr. Al Wizard last time, he helped the Saber-Toothed Tiger Mercenary Group.

This favor allowed the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group to move its original outpost and prepare to set up a new outpost in Pang.

When the Sabretooth Tiger Mercenary Group dispatches mercenaries to the Endless Deep Forest, they will provide supplies near the outpost. After the mercenaries make money, they will also spend it in nearby cities.

This will bring popularity to the city.

If more mercenary groups and more adventurers gather in a city, the various materials they obtain from their adventures and the commercial activities they bring can even support the economy of a small city.

But obviously, this slightly conflicts with Luther's current plan.

Before the Orange Consortium was established, Luther's plan for the metropolis was obviously one step at a time. As long as it attracted people, it didn't matter whether it was a hammer in the east or a hoe in the west.

But now he has plans to build a metropolis full of art, prosperity, safety and comfort.

It's not that Luther despises mercenary adventurers, it's just that they are all people who lick blood from the edge of a knife, generally have a very bad temper, and they also like to drink.

If too many mercenaries and adventurers gather in a city, there will definitely be a lot of fights.

There is a bit of a conflict with Luther's development path.

But it doesn't matter, metropolises haven't developed yet. If the Pompeii family became a real noble, they would not just play a role in a metropolis.

A big city and several small cities seem to be good. Then it seems that it will be possible to create a rough city with a rich adventurer atmosphere.

Therefore, Luther welcomed the visit of the Knights of Orleans.

"Thank you so much, Knight of Orleans." Luther expressed his master's enthusiasm and gave the Knight of Orleans a hug. Then he took the Knight of Orleans to the city hall and registered as a saber-toothed tiger mercenary on the edge of the territory.

Regiment station.

This station is not far from Pompeii, and the supply line is very short. It will not disturb the normal activities of Pompeii residents.

After all, the murderous aura emanating from the mercenaries is quite scary.

The mercenaries' station layout is very simple, just a decent outer wall and a tent camp.

Ordinary mercenaries were very good at logistics, and the work was completed before dark. Luther brought Pompeii wine, and he and the saber-toothed tiger knights ate and drank wine.

Because of Luther's warm hospitality, the knights also liked Luther very much, and the atmosphere was very good.

At this moment, there were stars in the sky and a bonfire was lit on the ground. Luther and the Knight of Orleans were sitting on small benches around the bonfire. The Knight of Orleans drank a lot of Pompeii wine and was a little dizzy.

If you drink too much of this wine, you will easily reveal the truth.

But the Knight of Orleans was still quite sober, but he took advantage of his drunkenness and said to Luther: "Knight Luther, you also know that being a mercenary is a very profitable but very risky thing. You may die at any time. Although

I am a high-ranking knight, but I cannot escape this fate. In the history of the Saber-Tooth Tiger Mercenary Group, many high-ranking knights died in battle. So my biggest wish is to become a member of a powerful family after making enough money and live a prosperous life.

A relatively stable day.”

Luther smiled secretly in his heart. The Knight of Orleans must have had this idea for a long time.

But I have never found a suitable family member to serve as an official.

This is quite normal.

A well-established noble family in the field has a large number of knight groups, whether they are guardian knights or vassal knights.

They always appoint knights from these families because these families are trustworthy.

Even if the number is not enough, they prefer noble knights.

As for adventurers, mercenaries, and local nobles who were born from civilians, they did not trust them. Because mercenaries and adventurers often represented filth.

A seemingly upright mercenary may be a ruthless executioner in the wild.

In this regard, mercenaries from aristocratic backgrounds are better than mercenaries from civilian backgrounds, because the surname of a nobleman represents credibility in a sense.

All in all, civilians are not trusted.

Therefore, if a civilian mercenary wants to find a way out, the best way is to become a great knight, go to the royal capital to join the king, and transform into a palace noble.

If you can't become a great knight, you'll have to look for a newly rising family or a business family without territory to be your bodyguard.

Even senior knights are not exempt from this.

There is no difference between a junior knight and a senior knight in terms of power that cannot be trusted.

Unless you are a great knight.

This is also the reason why the power of the New Party continues to penetrate among the civilian knights. The New Party represents the resentment of the civilian knights. They are eager to overthrow the existing aristocratic system and obtain a status equal to their strength.

However, the nobles have a huge wealth advantage and can eat magic potions and monster meat to cultivate generations of noble knights.

The power of civilians is too weak.

Therefore, although the new party has a chance to overthrow the Kingdom of Prussia, the chance is actually extremely slim.

All in all, the Knight of Orleans is a seemingly rough and generous mercenary, but he actually has his own shrewdness.

He could see that Luther didn't mind recruiting reputable civilian mercenaries.

The friendship and trust between the two sides were established in the last battle.

The Pompeii family is developing rapidly.

Recently, the Knights of Orleans have been hearing the Pompeii family's propaganda to extinguish the Autumn Wind Bandits, which proves that the Pompeii family has invested countless gold coins and become a promoter.

The Knights of Orleans believed that the Pompeii family would not always be as large as it is now.

Sooner or later it will soar into the sky.

This is the delicate thought behind the seemingly bold and rough appearance of the Knight of Orleans.

And if Orleans one day gets tired of the life of a mercenary and hopes to have a stable life, then the Pompeii family will be a good choice.

And he believed that the Pompeii family also needed trustworthy senior knights.

Both sides complement each other, don't they?
