Chapter 25 Thessaloniki
It has been three days since Arthur and the others returned to Huaores.
Tony still chose to continue hiding in the dark. When the two sides separated, he gave Arthur the city lord seal and general warrant he had stolen. Arthur had already thought of a set of original items to return them. As for the blame, he naturally had to continue to recite the Yanfeng Manor and the Great Magician of Serenda.
Huaores City is still calm. Serenda, who was kept in the dark, has not found out who plotted against him? Naturally, the Blue Demonic would not be so stupid that she would publicize this matter. Even the "Blood-thorn" and "Blood Wolf Fox" who suffered a great loss chose to remain silent.
This thing seemed to have never happened before.
But the sensitive mercenaries soon discovered the changes in the city. First, the city lord, Old Wales, and the city guards, Kuntuo, successively invited the Blue Ape's Commander Arthur and the General Manager Moral, and brought the well-known nobles and wealthy businessmen in the city to accompany them.
Then there were several recent rich mercenary tasks in the City Lord's Mansion specially assigned to the Blue Age Mercenary Group. The officers who guarded the city guards on a daily basis were particularly enthusiastic when they met the captains of the Blue Age Mercenary Group.
All of this sent a clear signal to the outside world that the City Lord's Mansion and the City Guard were fully supporting the Blue Ape Mercenary Group.
However, the "Blood-thorn" and "Blood Wolf Fox" who had been incompatible with the "Blue Demon" unexpectedly chose to remain silent. So careful mercenaries discovered that the "Blood-thorn" deputy commanders, Tristi and Broad, had not appeared in the bar for a long time, and the "Wild Wolf Fox" crazy wolf and fire wolf disappeared almost at the same time. There were also many key mercenaries of the two mercenary groups missing with them.
Although there has never been any official news of the deaths from the two mercenary groups, in the mercenary circle, everyone knows what it means to be a famous mercenary who has not appeared in the city for a long time?
One has increased and the other has declined, and the situation of the three B-level mercenaries in Huaores City's three tribes ended from then on.
As the reputation of the Blue Ape Mercenary Group grew, more and more mercenaries applied to join, and many of them were old mercenaries who were unsatisfied with the mercenary group before.
The Blue Age's review of newly recruited mercenaries is as strict as ever. First, it reviews the mercenary's character and reputation, and then looks at the mercenary's strength. The relatively strict threshold of the Blue Age's is more attractive to the mercenaries whom Mu Ming joins. This is the demeanor and rule that a large mercenary group should have. Unlike "Blood Thorn" and "Blood Wolf Fox", although it has the arrogance of a B-level mercenary group, the mercenaries in the group are of varying quality.
In just half a month, the mercenary group recruited more than 20 new mercenaries, nearly half of which were mercenaries of the Warrior level.
Although the strength and reputation of the Blue Ape Mercenary Group continue to rise in Huaores, except for Moral who needs to show up outside, the core personnel of the Mercenary Group are more low-key. Apart from missions, the figures of the Blue Ape Mercenary are rarely seen in the bars and casinos where mercenaries frequently visit.
Arthur attended a banquet between the city lord and the leader of the Kuntuo these days, and then he did not leave the gate of the mercenary group, and was more cautious and cautious than before.
Arthur knew in his heart that the hidden dangers left by this incident could come to the door at any time. Although the "Blood Thorn" and "Blood Wolf Fox" were seriously injured and their fame was damaged, the lean camel was bigger than the horse. The two families were still B-level mercenaries. Kirkel and Valeo, two old mercenaries who had been in Hua'ores City for half their lives, chose to endure. Once they were allowed to seize the opportunity to counterattack, it would definitely be a fatal blow.
Compared to the two mercenary groups on the surface, Arthur was more worried that Serenda would suddenly come to the door. When he was in the Hunter's Wooden House, he counted the robbery harvest with Tony. Unfortunately, he did not find the materials for contact and exchanges between Serenda and Yunxiao Trading Company, but he obtained a large amount of valuable magic materials, crystals and magic books.
Among them, the most valuable thing for magicians is Serenda's magic notes, which is the experience and essence of a great magician's lifelong research on magic.
Apart from waiting for the next deal with Leon these days, Arthur dived into Serenda's magic notes the rest of the time. Arthur recognized from the bottom of his heart that Serenda's research on magic is a genius. He has different insights into the construction and casting of magic circles, and has improved or improved many magic circles. Many of the improved magic effects are eye-catching.
Although Serenda is a great wood magician, his notes also record many protective arrays and magic traps of other systems such as water, earth, fire, etc., and his master-level attainments in the magic mechanism.
Such a magic note is far more important to a great magician than that of expensive external objects such as magic materials and crystals. If he steals his magic note, he will definitely find it at all costs and take revenge!
Sometimes Arthur even wondered whether to copy a copy of the magic notes and secretly return them, but in the end he still didn't take action. Even if he returned them, Serenda wouldn't let him go, right?
As the days passed, the transaction time agreed with Leon was getting closer and closer. Moral's things were prepared almost the same, and the most of them were salt, which was designated as contraband by the human race countries, which was the most profitable commodity between the two races after the slave trade.
When Arthur was looking down to study the magic notes of Serenda, Moral hurried in.
"All the things in this transaction are ready?" Arthur asked without raising his head.
"The things are ready. It's not for this transaction that I'm looking for you. More than twenty young people came to the door and asked to see you."
"If you discuss the new recruitment of mercenaries with Qiong, I will disappear."
"Not mercenaries, these people say they are from the village of Thessalonika."
"Thessalonika?" Arthur raised his head suddenly, "Where is the person? Take me to see?"
For eight years, Arthur sent two thousand gold coins to Thessalonika every year. Even the years of escape from hiding in the ground stove fort have not been interrupted. Just to continue the responsibility of the mercenary group, someone in the village of Thessalonika took the initiative to find him!
There were more than twenty young people standing in front of the mercenary group, including four or five young girls. Each of them was strong and excited, and their bodies were full of vitality and strength. They were obviously trained and polished warriors.
"Who are you looking for me?" Arthur stood on the steps and swept across the faces of these young men.
"Are you Captain Arthur?" asked a young man in his early twenties, dark-skinned and stubborn, and stood up and asked.
"I'm Arthur."
"I've met Captain Arthur." As if I had practiced, more than twenty young people gave standard mercenary salutes to Arthur.
The actions of these young men made Arthur stunned, "Are you guys?"
The young man with a thorny head and a thorny smiled, "My name is Little Hag. Commander Arthur must remember my father, mercenary Hag. We are all from the village of Thessalonika."
"Mercenary Hag?" Arthur remembered that there was indeed such a person in the mercenary group back then, but later he was bitten by a demon beast due to a blood-spun plot. After he was cured, he was sent away by the mercenary group. There was no news after that. Unexpectedly, Hag had such a big son?
"Is Brother Hager okay?"
"He is very good, just mentioning the fact that he was a mercenary back then. By the way, I have a letter to Commander Arthur." Little Hager then remembered the serious business.
Arthur took the letter, looked at the signature and was stunned for a moment.
