Led by Officer Whitebeard, the team searched all suspicious places and successfully found two other Tiger Bee nests.
After a fierce battle, they finally succeeded in destroying all the nests.
It's just that compared to the good things that the first Queen Bee exploded, what came out after that were just ordinary materials and potions, as well as some blank weapons and equipment.
The sun is almost setting and it's approaching dusk.
The team returned in triumph, and the city lord fulfilled his promise and took out 000 gold coins and a large number of local products as rewards. At the same time, he personally held a banquet to celebrate their success in the palace.
Since the souvenirs were all common foods and materials, Jia Zhengjin only wanted the gold coins of the six members of his team, leaving the rest to Gu Lei and his adventure team.
During the banquet, the food and wine served by the city lord were very ordinary. At least to Jia Zhengjin, this was the case, but Gu Lei and his companions seemed to be very happy. Probably such "ordinary" food was not easy for them to eat.
For example, those "precious" delicious fruits purchased in limited quantities from Shenglong City.
"Pastor Martin, I have heard of the Holy Soul Mercenary Group!" Halfway through the meal, the city owner looked at Jia Zhengjin with a wine glass and said with a smile, "It is said that your group has some connection with Holy Dragon City, isn't it?"
"Absolutely!" Jia Zhengjin replied calmly and ate his dinner in silence.
"I'm so envious!" The city lord sighed lightly, "Being able to have some connection with Holy Dragon City will definitely be unlimited in the future. As long as Lord Keen gives a little guidance, there may be countless strong men in your group..."
Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin thought to himself: What on earth have you mythologized me into? But thinking about it carefully, if he really wanted to cultivate certain people, he could just use potential potions to create many geniuses. In fact, this is not wrong.
"By the way, Pastor Martin!" The city owner paused for a moment, looked at Jia Zhengjin and said, "You are in the Holy Soul Mercenary Group, what is your status?"
"Me?" Jia Zhengjin thought for a moment, "Although I am just an ordinary member, I am quite familiar with the leader and deputy leader."
"Really?" The city lord was delighted when he heard this, "Then I have a heartfelt request..."
"A kind invitation?"
"Exactly!" The city lord nodded, "In fact, I have an incompetent son. Although he has just turned ten, he is very naughty. And he likes to play adventurer's games when he is not a good noble young master.
We even spend a lot of money to hire adventurers and learn combat skills from them. The problem is, those adventurers are just low-level stuff, how can we teach them anything? The result is just fun! I told you that the brat didn't listen.
, I have to waste gold coins. I have figured it out now. Instead of forcing him to learn noble etiquette and inherit my Domasan knot city in the future, it is better to follow his wishes first and find a better mercenary group for him to experience.
The real life of an adventurer. When he has suffered, he will definitely understand my painstaking efforts, and he will be able to wake up when the time comes. But I don’t worry about the ordinary mercenary group. What if something happens to him? The older mercenaries
The group can ensure his safety, but I don’t know a few of them. Since you are here, I would like to ask if you can ask your group to try your best to experience the hardships and difficulties of adventurers while ensuring the safety of that brat.
Let him know that adventurers are not as romantic as written in storybooks."
"You have such a big heart." Jia Zhengjin was speechless, "A ten-year-old child is willing to be thrown into the hands of others. But I have to correct one thing. The mercenary group and the adventure group are different. The adventure group is like Gu Lei and the others.
A relatively loose team may perform tasks that are not too fatal at the same time. However, the mercenary group is different. The tasks that can be taken on in the later period basically require desperate efforts. Even the Holy Soul Mercenary Group may not be able to guarantee
Your child is 100 percent safe."
"This..." After hearing this, the city lord hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the white-bearded officer, "Is that so?"
"City Lord, it's true." The white-bearded officer nodded.
"So, you can either simply leave your child to Gu Lei and the others. It would be better to join the adventure group." Jia Zhengjin said calmly.
"Yes!" Gu Lei immediately smiled and said, "As long as the city lord is willing, we will definitely take good care of the young master and let him experience the true hardship of adventurers. Our life is not as nourishing and happy as in the storybook, although it is not as good as
The mercenary group is dangerous, but they live with their heads up. Just like how they were almost wiped out by bandits in Fuyan Mountain before, and this time an unexpected incident happened and they were almost wiped out by the Tiger Bee Army..."
"Forget it!" The city lord waved his hand hurriedly, "I think that the Holy Soul Mercenary Group must have extraordinary strength to have the reputation it has today. I feel more at ease leaving it in your hands! Moreover, the adventure group is indeed not as formal as the mercenary group...
…”
"It's okay, I understand!" Gu Lei didn't care, he laughed and continued drinking.
"Pastor Martin, I wonder if you are willing to help with this?" The city owner looked at Jia Zhengjin with a look of expectation.
"Do you really want to hand over your child to the Holy Soul Mercenary Group?" Jia Zhengjin frowned slightly, "This is no joke! Although I am sure that the leader and deputy leader can agree to this matter, and I will do my best to protect you.
Son. But everything has accidents, especially in such a high-risk profession as the mercenary group..."
"I have decided!" After careful consideration, the city lord looked at Jia Zhengjin seriously and said, "As long as Pastor Martin can help, I am willing to pay an additional 500 gold coins to express my gratitude."
"This is good," Gu Lei heard enviously from the side, "500 gold coins! Martin, you are rich!"
For Jia Zhengjin, 500 gold coins can only be regarded as small money. Of course, small money is also money, and he will not extrapolate: "Since the city lord insists so much, then I can write a letter. Your young master can take my letter with him.
Go to the Holy Dragon City Mercenary Union, find the leader or deputy leader of our Holy Soul Mercenary Group, and hand the letter to them. As long as I mention my name Martin Payton, they will definitely give me face."
"Great!" the city lord said happily, "Thank you very much Pastor Martin for your help, I'm very grateful! Come here quickly and bring a pen and paper. Also, go to the treasurer to get 500 gold coins, hurry up!"
"Yes!" His men immediately followed his orders and ran out of the palace quickly.
It didn't take long before Jia Zhengjin actually brought the pen and paper for writing the letter and 500 gold coins.
"Pastor Martin, please accept your little thought!" The city lord pushed the gold coin in front of Jia Zhengjin and handed over the pen and paper with a smile on his face.
"Can I have a look at your young master?" Jia Zhengjin said directly to the city lord without even looking at the gold coins in front of him, "With a rough impression, I know how to recommend him to the captain and deputy captain."
