Chapter 357: Descendants Organization
Chapter 358 The Advent Organization
In this world, their luck will be infinitely reduced. Anyone who comes to this world is a non-chief. If they don't pay attention to some small things, their lives will be killed.
After awakening this time, Lin Xiao, who was from an ordinary background, became a mercenary and joined a mercenary team.
For safety reasons, Lin Xiao stayed with his teammates in the mercenary group until the current breathing method reached the highest level of awakening qualifications.
Fortunately, this time his qualifications are still good, and his training speed is much faster than before. With the breathing method enhanced by this creation energy, his strength is also one of the best in the team at this time, and he is the backbone of the team.
This time they received a mission. A small noble hired several mercenary groups of different sizes to travel across a wasteland spanning thousands of kilometers to another country on the other side of the wasteland.
There are many large and small alien tribes and ferocious beasts living in the wasteland. This half-orc tribe with a population of more than a thousand is one of the most powerful alien tribes in the wasteland. Almost all of them came out to encircle and kill them, and the battle was quite fierce.
A wave of javelins rained down. Lin Xiao pulled out the short javelin from the shield with all his strength. He leaned over and groped to the left, where there were three green-skinned orcs fighting with four mercenaries.
There is no such thing as a fair duel in this kind of battle. He quietly reached behind and picked up a short javelin stuck on the ground and threw it down. Less than five meters away, he was within the maximum damage range of the javelin. He shot directly from
An orc stabbed him in the back.
The orc roared and tilted its body. The soldier on the opposite side immediately seized the opportunity and slashed it with a knife, and a ferocious head flew out.
"Well done!"
The soldier raised his big finger at Lin Xiao and praised him. He laughed loudly, and the two of them killed the remaining two orcs together.
Three people surrounded them, and the second orc was killed on the spot. Just as he was about to kill the last one, Lin Xiao suddenly felt wary and shouted immediately:
"Take cover!"
He threw himself directly to the ground, grabbed the stiff orc corpse and blocked it against him. The next second, a series of sound breaking through the air sounded, followed by screams one after another.
When he pushed away the corpse with several javelins inserted into it, the few people just now and the orcs were all shot to death by a wave of javelins.
"Depend on!"
The battlefield is so cruel. All the acquaintances who usually chat, laugh and drink together may die in a battle.
Without hesitating to sigh, he quickly picked up the large wooden shield dropped by one of his companions and turned around to run. As he ran, he pulled out the javelin from the shield and walked around to a carriage. After quickly observing the surrounding battlefield, he found that their side was already at a disadvantage.
After all, a tribe with more than a thousand orcs, even if only half of them are dispatched, will still have five to six hundred people, and their few mercenary groups plus the noble private soldiers only have two to three hundred, not to mention that the average physical fitness of the orcs is stronger than them
Some.
The human side relied on their combat skills and defensive advantages to resist for a while, but in the end they were still unable to resist.
At this moment, Lin Xiao heard a familiar whistle. He turned around and saw that the person blowing the whistle was the mercenary captain. This was the summons whistle, and he quickly leaned over.
Soon more than twenty people gathered near the captain. Looking around, no one else was coming. He said directly:
"The situation is not good. I guess it can't be stopped. I'm going to withdraw."
"What about our mission?"
"What kind of mission? Those nobles and their confidants withdrew early, and now the only ones who are resisting are the abandoned ones."
Lin Xiao raised his head and scanned around, and sure enough he found that the carriages containing the noble masters were missing.
"Then give me a spanking and withdraw!"
The group quickly reached an agreement and quickly retreated regardless of the others.
As soon as they left, other mercenary teams not far away also withdrew one after another. The battle situation suddenly collapsed, leaving only corpses and carriages on the ground. The remaining orcs happily dragged the corpses and carriages back.
The team left the battlefield and gathered behind a large patch of weeds, but after the break, the team got into an argument.
The captain wanted to catch up with the noble team to see if they could do anything, but a considerable number of members, led by the vice-captain, did not want to take risks and just wanted to go back directly. The two sides were divided here.
Lin Xiao understood what the captain wanted to do. He was just greedy for the money of the nobles. If there were not enough guards left in the noble team, they would turn against each other and take advantage of the enemy. This kind of thing has not been done before.
The end result was naturally a split, with the team split into two, with one part following the captain and the other following the vice-captain.
Lin Xiao was following the deputy captain. He had no interest in robbing a noble team. This kind of thing was too risky and would not benefit him.
He doesn't need the noble's most valuable breathing method, and he doesn't need gold or silver coins, so why bother to work hard.
Of course, what really made him make up his mind was that the vice-captain was going to take them across the wasteland to the great empire on the other side of the wasteland. It was said that the royal family of that great empire was the descendant of an extraordinary totem master. Not only did the royal family have totem master advisors,
There is also a totem master tower in the imperial capital, and it is said that the secret of how to become a totem master can be obtained from there.
Lin Xiao was quite interested in this, as this was one of the few places in this continent where he could come into contact with totem masters.
Yes, thanks to the channels of mercenaries and the summary of memories of countless reincarnations and awakenings in the past, he has guessed that the continent he lives in now is just a world where mortals gather. Although it is huge, it is just a small drop in the ocean compared to the entire world.
, there is a huge continent deep in the vast ocean, where totem masters and totem knights gather.
Compared with the real continent, his current continent, which is as large as Europe, is actually just an inconspicuous island in the vast ocean. Such islands with a large number of mortals living on them can be found everywhere in the world.
It can be inferred from this that the area of this world will be unexpectedly huge.
Without an escort mission, a group of mercenaries marched very fast. It only took half a month to cross the dangerous wasteland and arrive at a small town called Bianbu on the edge of the wasteland.
The small town belongs to the Osa Empire. Due to the constant harassment by ferocious beasts and aliens, the people are fierce and strong. There is an army stationed all year round to defend the aliens and protect the caravans in the wasteland.
The mercenary team with only eight people left came to the city gate along the gravel path. Such teams are very common here. Their embarrassed appearance showed that they had encountered a failure when they entered the wasteland. The guard even teased them and collected a few copper coins each.
They were put into the city without any inspection at all.
As soon as the team entered the city, they headed directly to the mercenary guild. The mercenary guild in the small town was located in the south of the city and occupied a very large area. Lin Xiao followed the deputy captain to the entrance of the mercenary guild. When he was about to enter, he was suddenly startled.
There are many small signs with various strange symbols hanging on the door. These are usually used to convey various secret codes that you don't want others to know. If you know the secret code, you will know what is going on when you see the sign.
One of the dozen brands caught his attention. After glancing around, he stepped forward and took out the brand. There was an address written in small characters on the back.
"Mercenary Guild No. 7 Courtyard?"
His eyes flickered and he paused. He entered the guild, found the vice-captain and asked for a leave. He asked the staff for directions and then went out.
The so-called Mercenary Guild No. 7 Courtyard is a property belonging to the Mercenary Guild. It is rented out to some small and medium-sized mercenary teams that are resident in the local area. When he came to No. 7 Courtyard, he saw a rather familiar person at the door.
Emblem, you will know it is right.
Knocking lightly on the door, it soon opened, revealing a young man who looked at Lin Xiao with doubtful eyes.
He didn't say anything, he just took out the sign and handed it over, saying:
"Gaia!"
The man's eyes immediately stretched and he smiled:
"Newcomer, come in quickly."
His attitude was quite enthusiastic, completely opposite from before.
While welcoming him in, the man said:
"It's rare for a new person to come. You can call me Moore. I have been awakened for eight years."
"Roel, it has been three years since he awakened!"
"clever."
Moore said appreciatively:
"I just wanted to remind you not to use your real name. Everyone here uses pseudonyms."
As he entered the courtyard, Moore continued:
"This is just a stronghold for us, a place for brothers from other places to come here to stay. Now there are only three people who often move here, including me, and including you, there are four. According to the agreement, any awakened companions can come here.
Receive a subsidy and provide some information about totem masters free of charge."
"You can choose whether you want to or not. If you want, you will need to stay at this stronghold for one to three years, at least one year. If new people come, you can leave early."
Lin Xiaoqi said:
"What does the subsidy and information include?"
Moore replied happily:
"The subsidy is a set of excellent weapons and equipment designated by you, including controlled weapons such as crossbows, and a thousand gold coins. The information is some basic information about totem masters, and how to become a totem master apprentice, including several ways to become a totem master apprentice.
The apprentice’s method.”
"Well!"
This was quite tempting, exactly what he lacked.
Lin Xiao only hesitated for a moment and then said:
"I agreed."
Moore raised his big finger and laughed:
"It's a wise choice. In the future, you will know that this choice is definitely a value-for-money choice. Even so, I will take you to understand the situation here in the past few days and hand over in a few days."
Moore looked a little impatient.
In the next few days, he took Lin Xiao around the city, explaining to him the situation of the organization here and the assets it owned.
As a public organization founded by our predecessors a long time ago, it has developed over hundreds of thousands of years and already has extremely large dark forces in this world, even in this small town.
Not to mention the higher-level forces involved, the organization in the city alone owns half a street and dozens of shops, which generates a large sum of money just for rent collection every month. In addition, there is an underground gang and a large mercenary group.
serve them, not to mention higher level support.
However, the underground gangs and mercenary groups were founded by their predecessors. Now the predecessors have died long ago. Now the gangs and mercenary groups only have a cooperative relationship with them, and they need to spend money to hire them for whatever they want to do.
As the temporary host of this stronghold, you can invite these two forces to serve you at an extremely favorable price, for example.
