The desire to become stronger is very strong. Is this my real strategy in this world? The information is still too little. The situation of knowledge monopoly in this world should be very serious. A lot of secret knowledge only exists in the royal family and the Earl's Palace. Equivalent exchange? I don't have this qualification yet. Only by advancing to a great knight can you have this qualification. These concepts of great knights were introduced to Voltaire by White. Junior knights, intermediate knights, senior knights, and great knights. White couldn't explain the specifics. After all, White's level was still low. White was already at the junior knight level. He wallowed for several years with no hope of growth, and Voltaire gave him hope. Voltaire was determined that becoming a Grand Knight would be his strategic goal in the next few years, and he also had this confidence. Daily training in Zhuang Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Knife Techniques, and Breathing Techniques has made significant progress, and the Qi core seeds are getting stronger and stronger. After advancing to the rank of Grand Knight, Voltaire has many trump cards in equal exchange with major royal families and Earls' palaces. He can obtain comprehensive knowledge and information, and then decide on the next strategy. In terms of personal force support for the implementation of strategies, Voltaire is already a junior knight with strength that exceeds the same level. In terms of the use of power, he has a clear understanding of Zhengjin, complete mastery of Mingjin and Dark Jin, and has reached an extremely high level of Transformation Jin. He has a very deep understanding of "meaning", his sword skills have reached the realm of perfection, and his spear skills have the "meaning" of spears. In terms of environmental security, Voltaire felt that Britain was a good continent and treated knights extremely well. The main threat was alien beasts. This time when we enter the Nightmare Forest, we can only move around on the margins, safety first. When there is a tide of beasts, the knights must be organized effectively. Protecting them also protects yourself, and you must have confidence in your personal force.
The next day, Voltaire set off again, heading towards the fourth count city, Heiman City.
On October 10th, Voltaire came to the foot of a mountain and suddenly had the idea of climbing the mountain to watch the sunrise. He found a house, left the horse, and went up the mountain. Find an ideal place to camp. At dawn, Voltaire woke up and started practicing Zhuang Kung Fu toward the east without opening his eyes. I felt a sudden bright light in front of me, and from the light came the second uncle Wang, the third uncle Li, the fourth uncle Zhao... Xiao Xi was holding the baby, Gao Xiuwen and others, Li Yuan and others, and Wu Shouwen, the king of Xiang Kingdom. Tears fell from Voltaire's eyes.
October 20th, Voltaire to Heimann City. After settling in, I went to the bookstore and saw a catalog of exotic animals. It was very expensive, costing 20 gold pounds. I gritted my teeth and bought it. When I opened it, I saw some advanced versions of animals. Pigs are still pigs, but the alien pigs are blessed with the earth element. Their defense is extremely tough and their attack power is very strong. So when the hunter sees the alien pigs, he turns around and runs away. It's okay. Let's go back and take a closer look. Let's go shopping first.
Soon, I discovered a special place: a huge mercenary guild. The mercenary guilds in other places were relatively small, and most of them were in the bodyguard business, but the main business here was hunting exotic beasts. In the four-story business building, a huge number of mercenaries and knights came in and out, and the place was bustling with people. Above the third floor, junior knights are exempt from entry, and mercenary groups below three stars are exempt from entry. Voltaire was walking around on the second floor. A young man dressed as a staff member came forward and bowed and said, "Sir, do you intend to recruit a mercenary group?" Voltaire replied: "I want to understand the situation first. Decision." The young man said: "Sir, please allow me to introduce the situation to you. If you want to go to the Nightmare Forest, it is best to recruit a mercenary group. It is very practical for daily life, security, transportation, and combat." Vols Tai nodded and asked: "What about the cost?" The young man replied: "Basic salary plus share. If the basic salary is higher, the share will be smaller, and if the basic salary is lower, the share will be higher. The details can be negotiated. It also depends on the strength and experience of the knight, and the strength of the mercenary group. , experience, star rating. For the understanding of strength, our underground floor is full of practice fields, which can be used for trials and sparring. Of course, a venue fee needs to be charged, which will be paid by the proposer." Voltaire asked: "How should I talk to the mercenary group? Should I talk to them myself?"
The young man replied: "No, Sir Knight. You can sit in a room on the second floor and post recruitment information, and then our guild will arrange a mercenary group to come over and contact you." Voltaire nodded and entered an empty room and asked The young man who followed in asked: "How do I publish recruitment information?" The young man replied: "Pay the service fee of 5 gold pounds first, and then publish the recruitment information, stating the knight's level, how many times he has been to the Nightmare Forest, and whether he is hunting exotic animals or picking medicine. , and then explain the requirements for recruiting a mercenary group, such as the number of people, the number of stars for the mercenary group, and the number of stars for the mercenaries, and then explain the recruitment costs, such as the specific basic salary and specific dividends. Of course, we can still negotiate during the contact." Vol. Sta gave 5 gold pounds, and then said: "I am a junior knight. It is my first time to enter the Nightmare Forest to hunt strange beasts. There is no star rating requirement for mercenary groups and mercenaries, as long as they are experienced, 5 people and below , I hope to have a basic salary of 100 gold pounds, an additional share, and an interview based on the share." The young man went to do it immediately.
The efficiency was quite high. People arrived in half an hour, five mercenaries. The leader bowed and said: "Sir Knight, my name is Worrell. We are the Red Star Mercenary Group. We are newly established. However, we are all one-star mercenaries. We formed the Red Star Mercenary Group because we were more compatible. We are five." Individually." Voltaire replied: "We can talk." Worrell said: "We ask for a 50% dividend. The reason is that the basic salary is very low and the travel expenses are not enough. We may not hunt exotic animals, easy to hunt All of them have been caught. Occasionally, one or two jump out from inside, but we may not be able to catch them. We may suffer heavy losses without harvesting the ones that are difficult to catch, such as encountering exotic pigs." Voltaire nodded: "Okay, the first Let's divide a strange beast like this. Later we can negotiate verbally based on each other's strength, okay?" The five people nodded. The two parties went to the hall on the first floor to sign the contract, each party had one copy, and the guild kept one copy as a base, and it was completed.
On the morning of October 21st, Voltaire and the Red Star Mercenary Group set out. On the 30th, we arrived at the No. 1 border town of the North Country, which was called this name. It was close to the border of the West Country of the North Country. Voltaire planned to hunt from the west to the east. He could come out to the nearest border town for repairs at any time. The Red Star Mercenary Group approved it. Following the advice of the Red Star Mercenary Group, Voltaire went to the leather shop to purchase full-body leather armor. At first glance, he found a complete set of leather hat, leather jacket, leather trouser armor, and leather boots. It was really good. When I asked about the price, the one made of exotic animal pigskin actually cost 300 gold pounds. Voltaire shook his head, and Worrell said: "Sir Knight, you are going to confront the alien beasts head-on. The pigskin armor of the alien beasts is really good. Iron helmets, iron armor, and horses can all be sold. Our horses have also been sold. , I plan to buy another horse in the border town of No. 6 in the North Country." Voltaire agreed and went to the market to sell it, but he only got 150 gold pounds. Voltaire still had 100 gold pounds, which was not enough. Worrell promised to lend money to Volster, lending 50 and paying back 70. Volster glanced at Worrell and agreed. Voltaire bought the full-body leather armor and made a request to the cobbler, to give him an ordinary cowhide backpack of the style he requested. The cobbler readily agreed after hearing about the material and specifications. The backpack was completed quickly and has a large capacity. It has the capacity of a 17-inch trolley case and has a belt buckle to close it. It weighs 5 pounds, but for Voltaire, it seems that it is not possible to carry it. The mercenaries were so excited after seeing it that they asked the cobbler to make one for each of them. The cobbler charged them a friendly price of 20 gold pounds. In the afternoon, Voltaire walked along a section of the Great Wall. Worrell said that the Great Wall had been completed five years ago. Voltaire thought to himself, this Great Wall is a brief history of the British continent!
