Douluo: Starting from the Spirit of Time Worm
Chapter 22 Iron Heart City
Amon decided to change the itinerary temporarily. He said to the coachman:
"I have something to do in Tiexin City for a few days. I will give you a silver soul coin as an extra reward every two days during the stay."
"Okay, Master Soul Master."
The coachman happily agreed. He only needed to wait for a while in the city outside the itinerary. He could get a silver soul every two days. It was easy and not dangerous. With such good conditions, he wished he could stay for ten days or half a month.
"Great, the road is boring enough. Let's play in the city for a few days?" Yan Jin agreed with both hands.
The coachman changed the direction of travel, and the carriage slowly drove towards Tiexin City.
Tiexin City is close to the Tiexin Mountains. It is a medium-sized city, much more prosperous than Frost Leaf City.
There was a long queue at the city gate. These were farmers or merchants who wanted to enter the city.
Lei Yin asked the coachman to drive the carriage through the convenient passage on the other side.
The guard stopped them: "Show your certificate."
Lei Yin showed them his soul master badge.
"Great Soul Master?" The guard looked at Lei Yin with some suspicion.
Such a young Great Soul Master is very rare, and the carriage is not luxurious, so he subconsciously does not believe it.
Soul Masters can take the fast lane, and the goods they carry are not taxed if the quantity is below a certain level.
In addition, as a default rule in private, the guards at the city gate will not search the soul master's carriage for prohibited items, which makes some people take risks and pretend to be.
He asked respectfully but firmly: "This sir, can you please show your martial soul? Recently, there are many vendors pretending to be soul masters to smuggle goods."
Lei Yin nodded, soul power surged, accompanied by thunder, and silver-white lightning appeared in his palm, emitting dazzling light. Two yellow soul rings floated quietly.
The guard quickly returned the badge to Lei Yin, and at the same time made way: "Sir, please come in."
The carriage drove into the city slowly.
An older guard patted the shoulder of the guard who had just carefully checked him and said:
"Boy, don't be so impulsive next time. Fortunately, this lord is more reasonable. Not all soul masters are so easy to talk to."
"We are just ordinary guards. With this little salary, there is no need to make things difficult for the soul masters.
"Even if we catch the impostor, what good will it do us? The reward has never been given.
"On the contrary, if you offend a soul master with a small mind, you will be in big trouble."
But isn't this our job... The young guard muttered in his heart and did not refute.
Yan Jin ran to the restaurant happily. She almost vomited after eating dry food for several days in a row.
If it was in the past when she was struggling to survive in the West Street of Frost Leaf City, she would not mind it, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality. After five years of good life, she almost forgot the feeling of being satisfied with a piece of cake.
"Mr. Amon..." Lei Yin looked at Amon.
"You go too, we don't need you for now." Amon nodded slightly at him.
"Call us if you need anything, we'll be there whenever you ask." After saying that, Lei Yin ran after Yan Jin, he was worried that his sister would cause trouble again.
This is not Shuangye City, where fighting is not a common practice.
Amon found a street kid and took a silver soul coin in his hand to play with.
"I need a guide to tell me where the mercenaries in Tiexin City often gather, and which are the more famous mercenaries. Please introduce them to me."
Jie Liuzi looked at the silver soul coin, and then looked at Amon. Judging from his clothes and temperament, this guy is not easy to mess with.
He put away the extra thoughts and greed in his heart, and said in a flattering tone: "Sir, please follow me. In view of the weight of the silver soul coin, I will serve you with the most dedicated attitude, I swear."
Jie Liuzi led the way and introduced:
"There are two more famous mercenary groups in the city. One is the Tiexin Mercenary Group. It is the largest mercenary group with more than ten soul masters. Including other ordinary people, the total number of people exceeds fifty.
"The other is the Jackal Mercenary Group, which is a relatively loose mercenary group composed of more than ten soul masters.
"There is no subordinate relationship between its members, and it is rare for all members to go out for a certain task. Generally, a soul master team of three or four people accepts and completes the commission.
"In addition, there are several more powerful lone travelers, all of whom are soul masters above level 30."
Amon followed him to a tavern. After throwing the silver soul coin to the street urchin, he pushed open the shutter door and walked in.
"Master, I will wait at the door. If you have any questions, just tell me. I will serve you all day."
In the tavern, there was no noise and bustle as imagined. It was even quiet. People sat at different tables drinking in groups of three or two, and they even spoke in low voices.
Amon came to the bar and put a silver soul coin on it. "Give me a glass of barley wine. In addition, can you tell me how to issue a commission to the mercenary group?"
The bartender put the wine and change on the bar and whispered:
"Go to the second floor, there is a task release board. You can leave a message on it with a silver coin. Write down your task content and contact information. If there are mercenaries interested, they will contact you.
"On the other board, there are contact information for the major mercenary groups in the city. You can also take the initiative to contact a mercenary group yourself."
Amon pushed the change back and continued to ask:
"If I want to hunt a soul beast of a certain type and year, what should I do?"
"Specified soul beast? Are you going to hunt for soul rings? That's a lot of money." The bartender took the money, thought for a while, and replied:
"You can first post a bounty for the soul beast's trace on the task board. Then contact a mercenary group and agree to accompany you to hunt after you get the news.
"You can also entrust the entire task to a mercenary group, including finding news and helping with hunting.
"The cost of the former will be relatively lower, but you need to confirm the authenticity of the news yourself. If you make a wasted trip because the news is wrong, the mercenary group will still charge a fee.
"The second method will cost much more, but it is more stable."
Amon pinched his monocle and chuckled, "Can I choose to use both methods?"
The bartender was silent for a while, "If you have money, of course you can.
"But it's best not to trust mercenaries too much. You know, these people are a mixed bag. Sometimes, they are the biggest source of danger for their employers.
"Also, a friendly reminder, it's best not to speak too loudly or walk too loudly. There is a soul master who has a bad personality but likes quietness upstairs. He hates being disturbed by others."
"Thank you for your reminder." Amon nodded and walked up the stairs on the east side to the second floor.
There was a young man who looked to be in his twenties by the window on the north side of the second floor.
He had golden hair and wore a gorgeous but not complicated hunting suit. A golden iris was embellished on his chest. His black clothes were soft and shiny, and they were worth a lot of money.
The young man was holding a glass of red wine and sipping it mouthful by mouthful, as elegant as a classical nobleman.
While tasting the red wine, he admired the view outside the window. From this angle, the mountains in the distance were like a giant dragon lying down, the clouds rolled in the sky, the buildings in the city were lined up, and a sun was hanging high in the sky, emitting infinite light.
