Chapter 153 Mercenary Group and Reputation
After a day of travel, Yang Hai and Kakuluchia came to the plains outside the Stans hills. Seeing that it was getting late, although they were not afraid to walk at night in the low-level monster area, such a trip was exhausted and boring.
So the two decided to rest for a night in a small town called Lieben Village on the plain.
The characters in the game do not need to sleep. Most players will use jade plates and nectar and jade dew to pass them over at night. Of course, if you can walk around a few laps with your card friends in the tavern and chat while drinking and chatting, then life will be more comfortable. Of course, this is just a way of life. You can also choose to go to the underground arena to watch black fist, or go to the auction house to pick up bargains, or use materials to burn proficiency like those players who focus on life professions.
In short, in the forgotten continent, players' nightlife is rich and colorful.
Liebian Village is a neutral village located in the Stans Hills. It has no national ownership and is a transit station made up of spontaneous hoarding of caravans. The Stans Hills are the territory of trolls and ogres. If there is no supply and rest area, it is too dangerous for the caravans to cross the Stans Hills. There are four or five towns like Liebian Village, all on the outer plains of the Stans Hills. The main function is to ensure the supply of caravans.
This supply not only refers to food and water, but also information and armed forces.
After entering Lieben Village, Yang Hai and Kakuluchia did not stop, but went directly to the tavern, found a remote corner to sit down, ordered a large table of food and two barrels of beer.
The boss was thinking about being a mercenary and asked Yang Hai in a low voice: "I went to the forum to read the news about Lieben Village. The Stans Hills are not a good place. It is a difficult task to reach the Broken Sun Trail safely. Many caravans will seek help from mercenaries here. You said, when someone comes to hire us later, do we have to pretend to be b. It is not good to expose our strength too strong, right?"
Yang Hai scoffed at Kakulucia's thoughts: "Don't joke. Players who run the Breaking Day Trails all year round have joined the big mercenary guilds, and this dangerous job is mainly professional players. The credibility of the large mercenary group in the game and the credibility of WGA in reality can make the caravan feel at ease. We two suddenly appear here, which caravan boss will hire with confidence, and who knows if we are ogre spies."
"Will the ogres look for spies?" Kakulucia's mouth opened into an O-shaped shape.
Yang Hai was too lazy to answer this question, so he picked up the knife and fork and feasted.
The Sea Emperor Demon Pendant is still hanging on the ninth list of the total list, and this popularity can't be gone for a while. No matter what, everyone in the mainland knows that Kakuluchia and Poseidon are together, and the combination of a dragon exile + a human magic is really too dazzling.
Yang Hai's charm has been reduced to 0, so disguise and so on... Forget it; Kakuluchia's charming attribute is extremely high, so he simply disguised himself as an elf mage, and he would not be seen through.
The Dragon Clan Exiled + Elf Mage, this combination instantly became the most popular duo in the forgotland. They received very little attention along the way, and no one knew that the two people who passed by were the most popular duo in the forgotten continent.
In the middle of the tavern, a group of mercenaries were chatting and fucking. An old man who seemed to be drinking was telling stories to the people around him: "Tell me. The danger of this Stans hill is not only the ogre robbers of the Troll Tribe River. There are also a large group of beasts in the hills, which can also pose a fatal threat to the caravan."
As he said that, the uncle took a big sip of beer and burped.
A mercenary continued with a winkward look: "Brother Anderson, you have been running the Breaking Sun Trail since level 25. You must have dealt with many beasts, let's tell us?"
"If you want to say that the most ferocious beast in this hill is the pack of wolves." Anderson was praised very happily and said with drunken eyes: "They are the most ferocious and cunning beasts in the world. Most of them do not know magic. They are fragile and greedy and afraid of death. But when a group of wolves come together and have a new leader, the group of miscellaneous animals becomes extremely dangerous. Their main source of food is other animals, but they also eat people. The pack of wolves knows how to measure each other's strength. They never attack large caravans, but they will target a small group of adventurers.
After hiccups, Anderson continued: "The wolves usually scatter. Once one of the wolves finds prey worth hunting, they will roar and lead their companions over. The wolves don't run fast, but they are not slow. They can run at a constant speed from the start of the sun set, and they will be exhausted until the next day when the sun rises. There is no animal that can run better than them in the Stans Hills. If they are chasing people, man, if they can only lie on the ground for an hour to breathe.
"When chasing prey, these wolves will not approach the prey too much. Even if they can catch up, they will put pressure on the prey not far or near, causing the prey to panic and flee desperately. They will follow behind, waiting until the prey's physical strength is exhausted, and then rush forward. Wolves are not a ferocious beast. Compared with those cats, wolves have poor biting ability, and their biting ability is not enough to be fatal. Wolves will pounce on the prey one by one, and each wolf bites the prey until the prey can't move. After confirming that the prey has lost its ability to resist, the wolf king will come out, give the prey a final blow, and then start eating." Anderson took another big sip of beer: "No matter how powerful a person is, he will be unable to encounter a wolf pack, unless the wolf's attack cannot break the defense at all. Apart from those ogres and trolls, the most dangerous guys in the forest are these guys."
"But you just said that the wolves won't attack the caravan."
"Yes, yes, wolves are animals that bully the weak and fear the strong." Uncle Anderson said yawning: "But if they are extremely hungry, they have to attack the caravan in order to survive."
Yang Hai and Kakuluchia looked at each other.
"It sounds like it's true, not like bragging," Kakulucia said uncertainly.
"I wonder if the expulsion effect of Dragon Dust is useful?" Yang Hai thought for a while: "If Dragon Dust can only scare the wolf pack, which is not enough to make them give up chasing... If the wolf king has anti-hidden spells and makes your secondary stealth technique invalid... you will be dead."
"Why am I dead? What about you?" Kakulucia asked back.
"I don't believe that the anti-hidden spell at the level of the wolf king can see through my invisibility." Yang Hai said the truth: "Besides, the wolf pack can't run away from me. No matter how good their endurance is, it's useless. I ran away in 10 seconds so that their shadows can't be seen. If it really doesn't work, I can still hide in the belly of Prado in the temple. You and the wolf pack can't get in there. So... If you encounter a wolf pack, you don't seem to have any good solutions, so you can only wait to die."
Kakulucia was depressed and searching for news on the forum. Since she became obsessed with the forum, the boss spent a lot of money to buy the forum surfing software, and quickly sorted out all the news about the wolves in the hills of Stans.
As it turns out, the drunk man named Anderson did not brag. The wolves in Stans Hills can be said to be infamous. Because they did not attack the caravans, they did not cause any major trouble. However, few adventurers who encountered them survived. However, in a sense, places like Stans Hills are by no means a paradise for the Mavericks, but this is a business road. They need team strength to overcome difficulties. Although it is a little miserable to die here alone, it is really normal.
"Let's find a caravan to follow." Kakulucia lost his temper, and he had no confidence in dealing with the wolf that was rushing towards him.
"Let me try it." Yang Hai frowned: "For us, it's a bit difficult to find a bodyguard for work. The main reason is that we can't win the trust. Let's have a meal first, and I'll go find out the news later."
Yang Hai walked to the front of the counter and knocked on the table, attracting the bartender's attention.
"Man. Where is the clerk of the Mercenary Guild here? I want to talk to him." Yang Hai said.
"I am the clerk here. What's wrong with you when you ask me?"
The bartender is a thin human, with a sharp beard, sharp chin, and sharp eyes, showing a sense of cunning. He heard Yang Hai’s question, and continued to do his own thing without raising his head - pouring a handful of chopped lemon into the spirits.
Yang Hai showed a look of surprise. The bartender seemed to understand his expression and said softly: "Which clerk would like to go to this remote and dangerous place? After the shipping line centered on the Clockwork Coast was developed, no one was willing to take the Broken Sun Trail. Ogres and trolls had no livelihoods and gradually began to attack the village. No clerk was willing to come here. The Mercenary Guild had to ask locals to do it for him - just say, boy, what are you looking for me?"
"I want to set up a mercenary group," Yang Hai said carefully: "How long will it take? What procedures will be taken? Can you get the credible recommendation from the Mercenary Guild?"
Yang Hai said this, and the clerk who was part-time bartender raised his head and looked at him.
"It's not a joke to set up a mercenary group." The bartender stared into Yang Hai's eyes: "If you just want to go on a temporary mission, I advise you to join another mercenary group."
Yang Hai exclaimed in his heart. The bartender was too smart. He didn't reveal any information, but the bartender could guess that he was running a temporary mission. This guy definitely had tasks, and it was definitely not a small mission. Unfortunately, he was not interested in accepting these tasks.
"It is necessary to disclose your identity by joining other mercenaries." Yang Hai lowered his voice: "It is not very convenient for me and my brother to be identifiable."
"So you have to set up a mercenary group yourself and want to get the credible recommendations from the mercenary guild." The bartender nodded and expressed his understanding: "These are some rules and regulations, please see for yourself."
As he said that, the bartender took out a thin booklet covered in greasyness from under the table and stuffed it into Yang Hai's hand.
With the ability to read the documents of a erudite scholar, Yang Hai then scanned it and remembered the information. The conditions for establishing a mercenary group are very simple. They either complete more than 20 B-level tasks as an independent mercenary, or have respect or above reputation among any large force in the mainland, and pay a deposit of 1,000 gold coins. The conditions for obtaining the credibility recommendation of the mercenary group are slightly more difficult. Reputation recommendation represents the unconditional trust of the mercenary guild. If the mercenary causes losses to the employer due to his own responsibilities, the mercenary guild is responsible for compensation.
The conditions for applying for a reputation recommendation are to choose one of three.
1. Complete 10 S-level commissions
2. The reputation of the mainland is over 20,000, and the reputation among the three main forces in the mainland has reached worship.
3. Get joint recommendations from more than 3 S-level mercenary group leaders
"I think the Mercenary Guild should keep the applicant's information confidential, right?" Yang Hai asked. He knew he had asked nonsense, but in order to avoid trouble, he was still a little cautious.
"Yes." said the bartender, "So?"
