Azur Lane: I took the graduation port area through time

"As for this matter, you can make your own choice later in the evening. Anyway, the whole floor has been taken over by us, so there is no rush and we can make a decision now."

Faced with this situation, Lin Lan was experienced and said with a calm smile.

Although he knew that the final outcome would be that his ship girls would all find his room, Helopant would not let him go easily after seeing this battle.

But after all, there were still four little "light bulbs" around, so he still had to pay attention to the impact.

"Humph... Then we have to see which room on this floor is the largest and most luxurious first. Dragoon Northwest Wind, follow me."

So under the leadership of Marco Polo, several Sardinian ship girls began to separate.

At the same time, he also asked Lucival, Imis, Croya and Ryuk to choose their rooms.

But he noticed that Lucival always looked at him secretly from time to time, and when he looked away, he immediately turned away with a blushing face.

But he didn't think too deeply about it.

After all, the interactions between him and his wives are easy to relate to, especially since this innocent elf girl is at the age when her love affair begins.

As for whether the other party would care about him, he completely ruled out this possibility.

He wasn't so handsome that he could be admired in any country, and since they had only known each other for less than half a day, he didn't think he could be so charming.

Lunch is a local speciality cooked by the chef of Flashstone Tavern.

The free food and drinks prepared by Flashstone Tavern for guests are definitely top-notch in the local area. In addition to staple food, there are all kinds of desserts and drinks.

But for Lin Lan, who had just enjoyed a Sardinian feast last night, and even had a feast at Donghuang and Beilian some time ago, this was an ordinary level.

While he was taking the girls to have lunch in the restaurant area on the first floor of the tavern, he also noticed that there were no other guests visiting the Amphibious Stone Tavern throughout the entire trip.

It can be seen that the consumption level here is already above the level of middle school education.

During the meal, the waiter who served everyone also asked him if he needed to contact local bards or dancers to entertain them.

Through the explanations of Joffre and Marco Polo, he learned that both professions can impart some amplifying magical effects to the audience through playing and performing dances.

But neither Lin Lan nor the ship girls, these amplification magics have any effect.

So he declined the waiter's kindness and casually asked if there was a mercenary group in the local area that had a higher rating and was trustworthy.

"Sir, if it is an ordinary battle or a collection of commissions, it is relatively reliable to hand it over to the local mercenaries in Flashstone City."

But the answer he got from the waiter made him somewhat unexpected.

“But if you want to entrust the transportation of valuables or escort, I personally don’t recommend that you handle it at the local mercenary association.

"After all, you should have heard about the situation in the city on the other side of Flashstone City. This has also made many of the mercenary groups staying in the local mercenary association unreliable."

Perhaps because she had a good impression of them from the National College, the female waiter also bluntly told him about the situation of the Mercenary Association in the Flashstone City next door.

"Well, thanks for reminding me, this is a tip for you."

Lin Lan nodded with satisfaction, took out a magic source crystal from the slave merchant's magic storage ring given to him by Herophant and handed it to the waiter.

In fact, he should have thought that as a loose form of mercenary armed forces, the vast majority of mercenaries believe in the principle of profit first.

Since Amphibious City relies on black market trade as its leading local industry, the mercenary groups here must also rely on commissions from black market merchants as their main source of income.

Not to mention that the group of bandits who traveled with the slave merchant Mande also had the qualifications of the mercenary group purchased by Mande in the Flashstone City Mercenary Association.

There are definitely a lot of low-level mercenary groups like this, whose qualifications were bought by financial sponsors and composed entirely of wanted bandits, in remote towns like Flashstone City.

Regular mercenary groups that have the qualifications required to be registered and certified by the Mercenary Association often do not stay in these remote towns.

"It seems that if you want to place a commission later, you have to use the power of breath to see if the mercenaries here are reliable.

"Otherwise, we'd better take them to the main city first. It will only take a day anyway."

Lin Lan silently made a plan in his heart.

After a lively lunch with the girls, he decided to leave for the Mercenary Association and visit the pagans on the other side of the river.

"Xiafei, please go to the local Holy Light Church in the afternoon and inform the bishop here that you are ready to accept slaves."

"Herofente, take care of these four children for me. After they wake up from their lunch break, you and Andrea will take Southwest Feng and Northwest Feng with them to go shopping in the city and buy more souvenirs for them. "

After letting Northwest Wind and Southwest Wind take Lucival and the others back to their room for a lunch break, he arranged the afternoon tasks for his ship girls and Herophant.

"Marco Polo, Mogador, and the dragoons, please join me. If everything goes well, you should be able to come back for dinner.

"If there is any emergency, you can use the fleet channel to contact each other."

Choosing to let the three ship girls accompany him, Lin Lan said goodbye to Helopant, Andrea and Xiafei for the time being, and went straight to the Mercenary Association next door to the tavern.

The afternoon sun shines on the town streets, and the mud on the town roads has basically been dried.

The Mercenary Association of Flashstone City is a two-story building. In the empty reception hall on the first floor, several mercenaries are sitting at tables to rest.

"Huh? I thought it would be very lively here, why are there only so many people?"

Marco Polo looked around the hall of the Mercenary Association curiously and scratched his head in confusion.

Lin Lan sighed and analyzed the Sardinian battleship girl:

"Have you forgotten that there were so many amphibious fishmen outside the city attacking the city this morning? Repairing the city walls and buildings inside the city will definitely require a lot of manpower. Where do you think this manpower comes from?"

"Yeah, I almost forgot about this one."

Marco Polo had a look of sudden realization on his face, and his loli escort dragoon couldn't help but sigh when he heard what he said:

"Is it true that mercenaries are such a hard industry?"

"That's right, gentlemen and ladies who have come from afar, the hardships of the mercenary profession are not something that everyone can bear."

But just as the dragoon sighed, a young mercenary wearing a cowhide jacket and several bottles of potions hanging around his waist walked up.

"I am Kyle, the deputy leader of the Loman Mercenary Group, and a C-level pharmacist from the Alchemy Association. How can I help you?"

He looked directly at Lin Lan, bowed respectfully and asked.

"I want to find a mercenary group to escort my four students back to the National Paladin Academy."

Lin Lan narrowed his eyes and looked at the pharmacist. Suddenly, with a playful smile on his lips, he lightly stated his entrusted task.

"That must be our mercenary group. Leave this matter to us, you can rest assured!

"Our Luoman mercenary group is ranked among the top three in the Flashstone City Association. We have rich escort experience, and we also have two sixth-level warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles..."

When the other party heard the commission he said, although his expression remained unchanged, there was a bit of excitement in his tone, and he immediately began to promote the advantages of his mercenary group.
