A mercenary team looks pretty good, everyone is above LV3, and there are even two people at LV5. No matter how you look at it, such a team should be able to complete at least some relatively profitable tasks.

But this mercenary team is not only sallow and thin, but also has poor weapons. The mission they have completed now is actually twenty rabbits.

Twenty rabbits...even Bibi Rabbit, which is extremely difficult to catch, can't earn much commission.

Such a mercenary team was unreliable no matter how you looked at it. Beta turned and asked the female counter: "Did you make a mistake?"

"That's right." The female counter once again placed the mercenary record in front of Beta: "Their reputation is very high, higher than that of the Howling Wolf Mercenary Group. As for why you are dissatisfied, Your Excellency, you can try to ask them why. ”

This was already an obvious hint, and Beta turned back to look at the mercenaries again.

Although they looked malnourished, there seemed to be a light in their eyes, a light of perseverance. It's a mysterious feeling, but Beta knows it's reliable. As a spell caster, he has a very solid mental power and can sense the mental state of many people.

These people had been listening to the conversation between Beta and the female counter, and seemed to know something. They were staring at Beta with eager expressions, as if they were like a group of beggars saying: Master, please give me a mission.

Beta is not the kind of Virgin who responds to requests, and of course she is not ruthless. Since she needs the help of a mercenary team, and the other party's credit record is quite good, and it seems that there is something unspeakable, it doesn't hurt to listen.

"I need to hire a team. If you are interested, come to the second floor to talk with me?" Beta thought for a while and asked.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in this mercenary team looked happy.

A young man walked up, but his face looked a little old due to malnutrition.

"We are members of the Cold Wind Mercenary Group. I am team leader Shalin. Thank you very much for giving us a chance."

"Whether it's an opportunity or not depends on everyone on the second floor having a chat."

Beta paid the female teller the money for the soundproof room, and then sat with these people in the soundproof room on the second floor.

"I can see that your strength is not weak, but why are your equipment and your complexion so bad?" After Beta sat down, he said directly: "You must know that your status will affect the mission. success rate.”

Everyone in the Cold Wind Mercenary Group had a look of astonishment on their faces. Shalin grinned, and then said helplessly: "Because we are poor and we owe people money."

"You have a high reputation, so it should be easy for you to receive relatively profitable tasks."

"In fact, our credibility is already very bad." Salin glanced at Beta and continued: "Don't get me wrong, your Excellency, it's not that we violated the contract, but that our mission failed."

"Mission failure is very common." Beta was a little surprised: "As long as the compensation is reasonable, it's not a big deal."

"The problem is, we failed that mission for no good reason."

Sarin, with a wry smile, told what happened.

It turns out that two years ago, the leader of the Cold Wind Mercenary Group, Shalin's father, received an escort mission. Escort a young noble girl to another city.

This was supposed to be a very simple task, but they failed.

During the escort, they passed through a small town and rested in a hotel. Somehow, everyone fell asleep while they were in the hotel. Then they woke up the next day and were surprised to find that the escort target had disappeared, and all of them were Everyone was there, no one was hurt. What surprised them even more was that all the people in the hotel were missing.

Then they frantically searched for the escort target. As a result, they found the escort target's naked body in a stinky ditch three hundred meters away from the hotel. The death was miserable. The deceased had definitely experienced the most horrific thing in the world.

After that... the noble girl's family came to find her, and the Cold Wind Mercenary Group lost a lot of money, and the mercenary group suddenly became in debt. This is nothing. If the mission fails, compensation is a matter of course. But the problem is that the mission failed. No one in their mercenary group died or was even injured.

The girl being escorted was quite beautiful, and then the mercenary community in Maplewood City spread rumors that it was the people from their mercenary group who revolted in the hotel, took turns to deal with her, and then abandoned the body.

Anyway, it's just a loss of money... The Cold Wind Mercenary Group can afford it.

As soon as such rumors came out, the reputation of the Cold Wind Mercenary Group became bad. Not to mention failing to receive missions, there would be people pointing fingers wherever they went, and people with a bad temper would directly start a fight with them.

The mercenary group was declining like this day by day. It owed money, had no reputation, and could not receive tasks. Then many people left, and before half-death, there were only ten people left in the mercenary group. Shalin's father couldn't bear such a blow, and after working hard for most of his life, his whole body was covered with hidden wounds, so he went directly to see the gods. The person in charge now is Sha Lin. He is the leader and squad leader of the Cold Wind Mercenary Group.

But because their group now has less than ten people, Shalin no longer calls himself the leader of the mercenary group.

After listening, Beta felt that the other party must have been set up.

This kind of thing is very troublesome. Beta usually doesn't want to cause trouble, but looking at the desolate appearance of these people and the glint in their eyes, I admire the tenacity of these people, even when they are at the end of their rope. Still persisting.

This reminded him of the days when he and the F6 members did mercenary missions together, and they persevered through the wind and rain, and the cold wind.

Somehow, feeling a little softer in his heart, Beta said: "Well, your story is quite interesting, I think it's good, I might as well give you the task."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Cold Wind Mercenary Group beamed with joy, and their eyes were full of gratitude when they looked at Beta.

Shalin even rubbed his hands together and said a little awkwardly: "Your Excellency, this is great, thank you very much."

Beta took out the contract just now and said it again what he had said to the Howling Wolf Mercenary Group.

After listening, Shalin's eyes were a little red.

At this time, the Cold Wind Mercenary Group was almost at its limit. Although the few of them have persisted until now, they understand very well that if this continues for another two or three months, they will definitely have to break up, even if they don't die from exhaustion.

Professionals will not starve to death, and any wild beast they hunt outside will be enough to feed them for a long time. But they have to pay back the money... Even if they kill a wild beast or find something good, they won't be able to sell it for much money, because almost all the merchants in Maplewood City know their situation, and whatever they take out will be sold by those Merchants kept prices very low.

As for developing in other cities...their mercenary group owes people money. Before it is repaid, the mercenary group is not allowed to disband or move its headquarters.

Therefore, compared to other mercenary groups, they do not have a strong idea of ​​​​sharing profits, because even if they transport good things, they cannot sell them for a price. It is easier and more useful to directly ask for gold coins.

Shalin picked up the contract and read it for a while. After confirming that there were no traps in it, he signed his name.

Then the contract turned into a blue fire and burned. After a while, nothing was left. The contract was burned on the table, but there was not even ashes on the table, let alone any burn marks.

"This is an advance payment of fifteen gold coins." Beta pushed the gold coins he took out from the space in front of the other party and said: "Your equipment is too poor. Change to new ones. In addition, you have to eat enough. After breakfast tomorrow morning , let’s meet at the entrance of the union.”

After speaking, Beta left with Jessica.

Shalin grasped the fifteen gold coins tightly and seemed unwilling to let go.

How long had it been since he had actually held a gold coin? People who have never been poor have no idea how terrible poverty is.

"A good man, a rare good man."

Shalin's eyes were red, and he sighed, then took out ten gold coins and handed them to another person: "Take this money and buy some equipment and food. Let's all eat well tonight and have a good time." Rest and replenish your energy. Do you understand? I have to use the other money to pay off the debt."

Then the members of the Cold Wind Mercenary Group also dispersed. A thin man was sitting near the entrance of the union. After seeing Salin leaving, he also left the stone slab where he had been sitting for three hours and walked around the city for a while. , came to a mansion, said a code word, and walked in.

In a room on the third floor, Duff listened to the report of the thieves group members and snorted: "I didn't expect that guy to actually cooperate with the people from the Cold Wind Mercenary Group. The Cold Wind Mercenary Group is very lucky. This kind of Under such circumstances, there are still people willing to hire and help them. ”

Fa Xiu stood aside and said disdainfully: "It's just a dying struggle...Brother-in-law, let's just arrest the noble boy and torture him. Then we won't know anything, so why bother to track him down."

"The other party is most likely a noble. We can't do anything in the city. Once the news is leaked, we will be hostile to all the nobles." Duff said dissatisfied: "Can you think through your words before doing something? Some words, It shouldn’t be said at all. Although the nobles fight among themselves, they have a deep-rooted concept that the nobles must die in the hands of the nobles. If ordinary people kill the nobles, the consequences will be serious. "

Faxiu took two steps back unhappily and sat on the chair. In his opinion, his brother-in-law was still too timid. No wonder the mercenary team now has no development conditions, no courage, and cannot achieve anything.

Duff didn't know what his brother-in-law was thinking. He ordered the thieves to continue tracking Beta and report back immediately if there was any special news.

He thought about it for a while and felt that he couldn't eat it. After all, the Cold Wind Mercenary Group was not bad at strength. The noble-looking boy was also a mage. Although he didn't look strong, mage was more powerful after all.

It seems that we need to find an ally to act together.
