Chapter 97 The Omen of Chaos
When I re-entered the door of Deep Rock City, both Kudra and his men felt like they were in a different world. When they curled up in the narrow cave of Silent Highland, no one thought that they would see this familiar scene again, and some of the mercenary who had escaped from death were crying tears, lying on the ground with more than whimpered.
But unlike his subordinates, Kudra only felt a bit helpless and depressed after a short absence. On the way back, two or three subordinates have talked with him in private, planning to leave Mercenary Group and no longer do mercenary work. This is a very common thing in Mercenary Group. mercenary is also a human. It is not only a machine that completes quest, nor is it a strictly prohibited soldier. If they are allowed to hover over the death line again and again, they will also have fear for a long time psychological. Good luck this time, Mercenary Association sent someone to rescue them, but next time?
Under such fear, it is not surprising to choose to give up. Although Kudra also tried to retain them, but it seems useless. What worries him is that the number of people in Mercenary Group is getting less and less. Except those few who have already decided to go, the remaining [] [] are only 3-4 individuals, not to mention that even among these people, Kudra also found that some people have already sprung back ...
The moment before Kudra is not only the lack of Mercenary Group, but whether the entire Mercenary Group can survive and survive.
Unfortunately, at present, he does not seem to have an effective way to stop this.
"Hey ..."
Kudra sighed, then he raised his head and looked not far away, where Rhodes was whispering something to Marlene, from their gaze to the carriage from time to time, maybe with that Half-Beast Girls are related.
Thinking of this, Kudra glared at the Half-Elf girl hanging behind him on can't help but coldly. In this adventure, he has clearly understood the strength of Rhodes and his Mercenary Group, although the number of Mercenary Group is not even enough The legal upper limit, but according to experience of Kudra, under the command of Rhodes', the powerful strength played by these people is comparable to the two armed Mercenary Group. The Kudra has already changed from the initial dissatisfaction to the current worship. Although he still doubts why Rhodes has such a rich experience and skilled commanding ability, at least in Kudra knows that this youngster is very powerful.
If he changed before, he still hopes to discuss with Rhodes so that his remnants will join the opponent, but now, even this last hope is lost. Because of Anne's incident, the atmosphere of both parties has dropped to a freezing point. After they left Highland and returned to the caravan, Rhodes ignored them as if these people simply did not exist. The girl Mage is even more terrible. She always stares at herself and others with a sharp eye of mesmerizing. Everyone can see that she is quite angry. Even the mild-hearted Miss Healer is now very indifferent to them. Kudra tried it several times, but in the end it was just a soft nail.
What makes Kudra even more headache is that not only did Rhodes show hostility to themselves, but even Serek and those Healer from Mercenary Association were also very dissatisfied. Know that for Mercenary Group, Mercenary Association is a very important organization. Once hatred by them, then the future will be very sad.
Think carefully. I ’m afraid the reason why mercenaries wants to quit is that there are reasons for this.
"Kudra Captain."
Just when Kudra sighed helplessly, Serek walked in front of him with no expression on his serious face.
"Rhodes and I will go back to Mercenary Association, the matter is done, you have returned safely, and it is over. Now you can go back to rest, but I hope to get a detailed report on the entire matter tomorrow It should not be difficult for you. "
"Yes! Master Serek!"
Kudra hurriedly tightened his nerves and answered. Upon hearing his answer, the expression on Master sword technique's face was slightly relaxed. He glanced at the people behind Kudra and shook his head with a wry smile.
"You are a heavy loss this time, forget it, I won't say anything more, but Mr. Kudra, I hope you can restrain your mercenary of subordinate/hand, after all, we Mercenary Association took a lot of time to find willingness Help your people, but now the relationship between the rescued and the rescuer is so ... It is really embarrassing to Association. Frankly speaking, Mr. Kudra, I hope to see your sincerity. I think this is for For Mercenary Group, it is very necessary. "
"Yes, sir, I understand what you mean, and I will handle this matter well!"
Kudra naturally understood Serek ’s dissatisfaction and immediately responded aloud, and got his response, Serek nodded with satisfaction, and then turned away.
At this moment, on the other side, Rhodes has also explained to Marlene. Although according to the process, after completing quest, everyone should go back to Mercenary Association to receive the Guild Leader award, but Anne has been sleeping and not awake, Leiya accompanies her and does not want to go. The Marlene's honor for mercenary is obviously insignificant, and has no interest in this optional reward. And Old Walker obviously does not plan to go to Association to receive the award, it is true for him to take a good rest.
So in the end, Rhodes had to let everyone go back to rest. He just ran with Serek.
As for Angel Celia, after leaving Silent Highland, Rhodes took her back and announced that her quest had been completed so she left. After all, Summoned Spirit cannot exist without limits, Rhodes' soul strength is also quite limited .........
But before leaving, Marlene pulled him aside and asked anxiously about Annie ’s follow-up questions. As a learned Mage, Anne is well aware of the end of Half-Beast after exposure. She is also worried now that once Annie ’s identity is revealed, will the Deep Rock City people ask them to hand over Anne, or expel Mercenary Group. At this point, Marlene is still quite careful.
However, Rhodes did not think as much as Marlene. He whispered a few words of comfort, telling Marlene is generally in border cities, people ’s perception of Half-Beast is not as strong as other places, especially places like Deep Rock City, As long as Anne did not cause any disaster, people would not have such thoughts. Moreover, if someone really spreads the matter, they can also use Mercenary Association's strength to smooth it out. After all, on the entire matter, Anne has nothing wrong, she should not be treated like this. As long as the direction is well grasped, there will be no major problems.
After hearing Rhodes''s answer, Marlene was finally relieved and then left in a carriage with the others. I have to say, it seems that this lady is really getting more and more like Vice Guild Leader ... ……
"Mr. Rhodes?"
Just as Rhodes looked at the wagon farther and farther away, a timid voice rang from his side, Rhodes turned his head, and saw a pretty Healer girl standing there uneasy, she was low Head, quietly lifted eyes to look at himself, and after sensing Rhodes''s gaze, he lowered his head again.
"Is there anything?"
Facing the Rhodes' inquiry, the girl hesitated for a moment, then looked at her with diligence, Rhodes found that not far behind her, several other Healer girls from Association also stood there, looking at their companions with a smile . And she also seemed to draw strength from her peers' eyes, turned around, and raised her head bravely. But even so, it still can't hide the blush that appears on the face.
"Yes ... that's it, that ... you saved me from those terrible dead subordinate/hand before in Highland, I never thanked you, it was so rude ... that ... thank you very much saved I ... "
Talking, the girl lowered her head again.
Looking at the shy girl in front of her, Rhodes can't help but sighed. It seems that this is indeed the gap of life experience, which is also Healer. Although Leiya is sometimes very weak, she is not timid. And this lady looked at the flowers in the greenhouse at first glance ... It was incomparable.
"No need to thank me."
Rhodes waved his hand.
"I just did what I should do, and, if you want to thank, Anne is the one who should accept your thanks."
"I understand what you mean, sir."
After hearing Rhodes' ’s answer, the girl showed a smile, and she did n’t seem to be as nervous as before.
"My sisters and I have negotiated. After Miss Anne wakes up, we will visit her together. In any case, she has done so many things for us, we must thank her for this. . "
Speaking of this, the girl paused, and then hesitated and continued.
"That ... Mr. Rhodes, we all are a little surprised about Miss Anne, but we can assure you that we absolutely do n’t mean to be afraid of Miss Anne! We are Healer and have treated various patients , So we know very well that those who own Half-Beast bloodline are not as terrible as the legend. And ... if you need our help in the future, please feel free to tell us, as long as we can help, we will never refuse to say anything. "
After finishing this sentence, the girl blushed, turned to Rhodes gave a bow, and then hurriedly turned and ran away, returning to her companion. At this moment, Serek also appeared in front of Rhodes' with a gloomy smile.
"The good thing is to be good, youngster, but I want to tell you, our Healer of Association, don't you want to turn around at will? Otherwise, the old guy will find you desperately."
I heard Serek half jokingly, Rhodes looked at him the same, then shrugged his shoulders and shook his head.
“It ’s mine, no one can take it away. It ’s not mine. I do n’t care, I do n’t care, Mr. Serek.”
"If you hear these words by those children, you will be cranky, okay, don't talk nonsense here, we have more important things to do, don't we?"
In appearance, there seems to be no difference between Mercenary Association and normally.
But when Rhodes and Serek entered the hall, they immediately discovered that the entire Association had undergone earth-shaking changes.
originally's lively hall is sparsely populated at the moment, and those mercenaries sitting at the table are completely devoid of the energy of the past. They either sigh in a low voice or drink booze beside them. Seeing Rhodes and Serek coming in, mercenaries just looked up and looked at them a few times before lowering his head again. It seemed lifeless, without any energy.
Rhodes and Serek glanced at each other. Although they didn't say much to each other, they could see their thoughts from each other's eyes.
Things are getting worse.
Their conjecture was confirmed by Old President.
"We conducted a survey, but it was still a bit late."
The Old President sitting behind the table now looks much older, and the spirit of the past can no longer be seen.
"After that, I sent an urgent notice to all Mercenary Group, telling them that some problems have occurred recently, and asked them to rush to close their hands and not continue quest. And Mercenary Association guarantees that they will not deduct their points, but even In this way, we are still one step behind. Of the 32 Mercenary Groups, including 'Victory Wine', there are 21 severe downsizing, 3 Mercenary Groups have even applied for dissolution and reorganization, and 5 Mercenary Groups still respond according to their remaining team members. There is no news, I think this is too much. Now the entire Parfield Area, in terms of Mercenary Group without any loss, including this small starlight, there are only four left. "
Speaking of this, Old President frowned, complexion serious.
"According to reports from various local reports, this time the trouble seems to be great. Deep Rock City Mercenary Association has been established till now, and such a thing has never happened! This is really ... hey ......... !!!"
Speaking of this, Old President is also complexion gloomy, which is obviously not good for him.
"What are the benefits for the other party who want to break us down so deliberately?"
Serek stroked the chin on his chin while thinking about muttered.
Rhodes did not answer this question. He now almost understands why Deep Rock City was attacked by Kingdom of the Night, but now these words are useless. Serek and Old President cannot believe him. But Rhodes doesn't care, many people think that only if they find a motive, they can stop the enemy. But Rhodes did the opposite. It was not too late to stop the enemies first, and then to find their motives ... As in the inference novels, the inability to identify prisoners without motives is just an art exaggeration, and of course Rhodes is not interested to accompany As the two men think in this direction, they add to the artistry.
"What are the plans for the twenty-one Mercenary Group?"
Rhodes's silent asked.
"Some people want to unite and reorganize the new Mercenary Group. Some people have not given up and plan to recruit some more staff. In any case, it is inevitable that there will be vacancies in 32 Mercenary Group places."
"After the vacancy?"
"According to regulation, we must propose the top few from the existing Mercenary Team to fill the vacancy. And the other Mercenary Group days are not easy, in fact ..."
The words of Old President haven't been finished yet, just then, the knock on the door suddenly sounded. This makes his face, which is not good-looking, even more uncomfortable, but even so, Old President is still resistant, started talking.
"Come in."
The door opened, and then a 20-year-old 7-8 man walked in.
He is wearing a red leather armor, as can be seen from the faint glory of magic. This leather armor is very valuable. A long sword of turquoise and a black short sword are hanging around the waist. The handsome and handsome face with a confident and proud smile, the slightly squinted eyes showed a calm and free look.
Entering the room, the young man looked at the three people in the room, gawked, then he smiled and walked to the desk of Old President, and handed over scroll with respect.
"Adult esteemed Guild Leader, I am here on behalf of‘ Emerald Tears ’Mercenary Group to submit an application to you. This is our agreement.”
"Oh?"
Hearing the man ’s words, Old President took the scroll in the man ’s hand, unfolded it and looked at it carefully. Then he nodded, took out the quill pen inserted next to it and signed his name on it.
“Un, no problem, on behalf of Mercenary Association, I officially recognize the completion of the reorganization of 'Emerald Tears'. From now on, you will revert to Mercenary Group status. I hope that you will be able to do things in accordance with the rules of mercenary. Things that damage mercenary's face. "
"Please rest assured, Master Guild Leader, we will work hard."
Speaking of this, the man saluted slightly and then turned to Serek, with a few more serious faces.
“I did n’t expect to see Serek adults here. It ’s really a great honor for me. If you have time, I hope you can come to 'Emerald Tears' to take a look. Now mercenaries is a time of frustration. If If you can appear in front of them, I think they will definitely cheer up again. "
"I will consider your invitation."
For the man ’s speech, Serek is just a slight nod, and he did n’t say much. The man didn't seem to take it seriously either, he turned around, looked at Rhodes, thought for a moment, then reached out enthusiastically.
"You must be the Mr. Rhodes who has been rumored to lead Mercenary Group to Silent Highland for rescue operations. Meet for the first time, hello, I am ..."
"Mr. Frank Kellys."
Rhodes stood up and took the man ’s outstretched hand. There was no expression on his face, which was in sharp contrast to the warm smile on the man's face.
"It really surprised me. The third heir of Kellys Family is not in Barcel. What does Deep Rock City come to do? I remember your family is famous for business, when will I be interested in mercenary again?"
Heard here, male complexion changed!
