Zhang Xiaoman walked out of Fengpeng under the escort of a group of griffon knights. In order to prevent any dangerous items in the hotel, every passenger was carefully checked before leaving.
Of course, based on the descriptions of the two mages, everyone understood that there was a big boss hidden during this trip, and it was he who took action just now to get rid of the wind cavalry.
But unfortunately, the big boss didn't seem to show up, which made everyone in the Griffin Knights a little worried. Even during the investigation, they were polite, for fear of inadvertently offending the other party.
Zhang Xiaoman didn't want to reveal his identity, so the people from the chamber of commerce naturally didn't dare to tell anyone.
Although everyone is scratching an itch in their hearts, they also want to show off in front of these normally aloof people.
But they were even more unwilling to offend the holy man because of this, digging their own graves for a little gossip and vanity. They were not stupid enough.
Although Zhang Xiaoman read a lot of books using his magical power of quicksand between his fingers, what he read on paper was still shallow. He needed to get to know this place personally before making other plans.
The investigation of the Griffin Knights was quickly concluded, and everyone was able to leave successfully.
After experiencing such an accident, many people felt like they were surviving a disaster. As soon as their feet touched the thick ground, they were so excited that they cried on the spot.
"Your Excellency Ji Xing, what are your plans next? If you don't have a suitable place to live for the time being, we at the Iron Furnace Merchant Guild might be lucky enough to help you do it for you...?"
Pillai came closer again and said flatteringly.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at him and naturally understood what the other party meant.
They just don't want to part ways with themselves and want to try to keep themselves.
But having said that, he came out here and was unfamiliar with the place, so it would be nice to have a guide.
But Zhang Xiaoman didn’t want to continue looking for people from the Iron Furnace Chamber of Commerce.
He had traveled with the other party earlier, accepted their hospitality, and then rescued them from Feng Peng. The two parties could be considered to be reconciled.
Now if we continue to ask these guys to provide accommodation, we will be in debt again.
Since ancient times, it was the hardest thing to repay a debt of gratitude. Compared with these, he might as well pay real money to hire a guide to save the trouble.
Xu Shi saw that Zhang Xiaoman did not reply to him immediately. Pillai bent down in fear and said quickly:
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Jixing, I was rude. I shouldn't have inquired about your movements. Please forgive me..."
Zhang Xiaoman naturally had no intention of blaming him, he just waved his hand and said:
"It doesn't matter, but there is no need for accommodation or anything like that. I should stay near the mercenary union for a while in the past few days. I should release some tasks by then. If you are interested, you can also pick them up. luck."
When Pillai heard his rejection at first, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
But later, when I heard the other party say that he planned to release a mission in the near future, I suddenly felt angry and had a glimmer of hope.
The boss told him his next move, which meant that he had no objection to finding him! In this way, the line between myself and him is not severed.
Moreover, the boss just said that he was going to the mercenary union to release a mission. Naturally, he had to seize such a good opportunity.
If he can complete the boss's task, then he will definitely be able to further build a good relationship with the other party, and even gain his friendship.
Think about it, gaining the friendship of a powerful holy man is an honor that even the noble men in the current dynasty cannot get, right?
Pillai was now full of expectations and couldn't wait to know what the mission was.
After all, it was a mission issued by a holy magician. The reward for this mission couldn't be worse, right?
Zhang Xiaoman saw him squirming in place and roughly guessed what he was thinking.
Isn't it just that he wants to obtain some internal information in advance? It's not like he has never seen this kind of thing before.
However, the matter of the dimensional rift could not be explained clearly in a few sentences, so he could only disappoint Mr. Pillai.
"The thing I need to find is a bit special. It is something called a dimensional crack. I will post the specific information on the mercenary mission section when the time comes. If you know where to find it, please use this to contact me."
Zhang Xiaoman said and handed the other party a small bottle, which contained a messenger butterfly. He only needed to release the butterfly and he could receive the message.
"Thank you for your trust. Our Chamber of Commerce will definitely do our best to help you find the dimensional rift!"
Pillai took the delicate transparent bottle with trembling hands, feeling extremely excited.
This is a communication magic weapon left by a saint-level powerhouse. As long as you take this thing back, needless to say, at least you will have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life!
After thanking the person in front of him again and again, Pillai waited until the person left, then hurried back to his caravan, urging the team members to return quickly, while he tightly covered the small bottle in his pocket. of.
Seeing his appearance, the team members all guessed that this guy might have received some kind of benefit from Lord Ji Xing just now.
A thoughtful person saw his action of covering his pocket and already guessed some possibilities in his mind, thinking about how he could get a piece of the pie later.
Sure enough, as soon as the caravan entered the Western Branch of the Iron Furnace Chamber of Commerce, Pillai abandoned everyone and hurried towards the room where Manager Dale was.
A group of people looked at each other, then all ran after him.
"You guys, why are you here! Have all the goods been unloaded? Have the cargo orders been handed over? Why are you all following me!? Why don't you go back quickly!!"
Pillai didn't realize the people behind him until he walked to the door of the room. He immediately yelled at them in shock and anger.
"Captain Pillai, don't worry about these trivial matters for now. It's okay to do them later. We see that you seem to be very busy now and we want to help you."
"Yes, Captain Pillai has worked hard along the way. If anything happens, we will naturally come to help share the burden. We can't let the captain work alone."
"..."
Everyone in the team immediately started talking to each other, and the reasons were all the same, they just wanted to come and help the captain.
However, although everyone spoke enthusiastically, they were secretly sneering in their hearts.
"Haha, you cunning guy, you want to sneak over to receive the merit while we are not paying attention. What a beautiful idea!"
Everyone had already seen through Pillai's plan, and no matter how angry the other party was and asked him to go back, he was not moved at all.
Especially the two low-level professionals, their status in the team is not lower than Pillai at all. Even because of their strength, they usually look down on the captain, but how can they afford this loss now.
The two approached each other step by step, relying on their own strength to put pressure on each other.
Pillai also refused to give in, facing them with a red face and thick neck.
The movement here quickly attracted the attention of others, and a sturdy middle-aged man in his fifties came out of the room.
"What's going on! Pillai? Why are you making such a fuss here as soon as you come back? What does it look like!"
The middle-aged man is the manager of the Western Branch of the Iron Furnace Chamber of Commerce, named Guido Dell.
"Dell is in charge...I..."
Pillai was about to speak, but was interrupted first.
"Okay, Pillai, I was just looking for you. I heard that you just got off the nearest Feng Peng. Tell me what happened. Are those orc wind cavalry real?"
Pillai was slightly surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Manager Dale was so well-informed. He had just returned from his side and he already knew about the orc invasion.
"Boss, those orcs are real, but I don't know exactly what happened... But I have more important things to report to you... Look..."
"Something more important?"
Dale was a little surprised by the other party's answer.
When he heard the first half of the sentence, he originally thought about asking this guy to describe the orc attack in detail first, but he didn't expect that he actually said that there were other things that were more important than this.
Dell was a little angry, this person really didn't know the importance.
Does he know that the royal family is already in a turmoil over the invasion of orcs, and a new race war may be about to begin. What else is more important than this now?
However, just when Dale was about to get angry, he unexpectedly heard a word from a mage behind him.
"Holy steps? Keen, what did you just say? What holy steps? Please explain it clearly to me!"
The mage named Keen finally got in the conversation, quickly came closer and said:
"It's like this, Manager Dale. When we were in Rost City a few days ago, we met a holy-level magician. We have been traveling with him in the past few days. Those green people we met on Fengpeng He also took action to get rid of the furry orcs!"
Keane finished all the words in one breath, so that Pillai on the side did not interrupt at all.
"Yes, yes! That's it. As the captain of the team, I participated in and led the entire reception of the Holy Magister, letting him..."
"Shut up!"
Pillai had just finished speaking when he was interrupted by a loud shout from the majestic steward in front of him.
"You are so brave now! In order to get credit, you even dared to deceive me! Do you know the consequences of doing this!?"
Dale's face was angry and ugly, and he was obviously really angry.
These two people interrupted themselves and kept talking about the more important thing. So this was it?
This is simply an extremely despicable lie!
"Holy Order? Do you losers know what Holy Order is? Do you know what the strong man of Holy Order means? There is currently only one Holy Magister in the entire human country, Your Excellency Lecentra."
"And you actually told me today that you met another powerful man of the holy level? And he also walked with you all the way?"
"Hahaha! This is simply the funniest joke I have ever heard in my life!"
Dale laughed loudly, his laughter full of ridicule and disdain.
"You two idiots, idiots who have never seen the world, don't just meet a high-level professional and treat him as a saint, it is simply ridiculous!"
The series of words he said made Pillai and Keane blush, but because of each other's momentum, they did not dare to refute immediately.
After all, this steward is a genuine high-level professional, and I don't even have the courage to resist in front of him.
"Master Steward, you misunderstood... We... really saw him fall from the sky before our eyes... He could fly... He really could fly!"
At this time, the low-level warrior behind also spoke, and even many ordinary caravan members behind him also echoed.
After all, this is a great achievement, so just take a little more of it.
"Oh? What did you just say?"
Dale raised his eyebrows and looked at him suspiciously.
"Harter, you'd better think about the matter clearly before you speak. You must know that the consequences of deceiving me are very serious. You will probably be hanged from a stone pillar on the street of Billet. Are you sure you want to stick to what you just said? ?”
Dale was approaching step by step, and the pressure of being a high-level warrior made the latter feel like he could hardly breathe.
"Yes...yes...I'm pretty sure, Manager Dale...he did fly down from the sky..."
"Holy steps? Keen, what did you just say? What holy steps? Please explain it clearly to me!"
The mage named Keen finally got in the conversation, quickly came closer and said:
"It's like this, Manager Dale. When we were in Rost City a few days ago, we met a holy-level magician. We have been traveling with him in the past few days. Those green people we met on Fengpeng He also took action to get rid of the furry orcs!"
Keane finished all the words in one breath, so that Pillai on the side did not interrupt at all.

"Hahaha! This is simply the funniest joke I have ever heard in my life!"
