Othua's War Banner

CHAPTER 199 CHAPTER 0198
The mercenary leader coughed up blood and nodded sadly.

Now everyone's eyes began to focus on Ken. After all, when the tribal coalition forces announced the Battle of the Painted Bing Apostles, they mentioned a very brilliant thing.

"Blessed by the old gods, the scarworm appeared, blocked the pursuit of the Qi Bing apostle, and preserved the vitality of the battle banners... cough cough."

Lorgar couldn't hold back in the middle of speaking.

After two accidents, the mercenaries finally took a completely unfamiliar path.

They passed through woodlands and plains, but when they crossed the mountains, they stepped on a rare earth fissure. The surprises prepared for the northern wilderness are not over yet...

"We accidentally broke into a river valley, and it turned out to be full of Maodong's bloody beasts!"

The mercenary still had a sad expression on his face.

This mission is estimated to leave a shadow for the rest of his life, it is really bad luck.

Their companions were broken at the feet of the giant beast, and the rest of them hid in the depths of the cave. Only a few sporadic ones managed to escape, and arrived at Santon Kaya with the refugees.

Hearing that Zhanjing Renyi here is still from southern Xinjiang, he licked his face and made a request.

[Mercenary Mission: Composer]

【Progress: 3D】

[Description: Help the hapless mercenary to rescue this important hostage. 】

At this moment, someone approached quietly.

"What did I hear? Blood plague behemoth, hahaha!"

The man laughed excitedly, as if he didn't hear the danger hidden in the mission. This cheerful voice made the few people who survived slightly embarrassed.

Ken knew who it was without looking back.

Only one person is so sensitive to beast monsters.

"Ken, the giant beast you were looking for has been found. These little guys really discovered the treasure by accident," Wu Senbu said.

"You think I'll accept the mission?" Ken asked.

Only then did Wu Senbu restrain his joy, and his face suddenly revealed.

He realized that what he was facing was the southern border mercenary group. This group of people received bounties to do things, and sometimes spied on the big tribes for the kingdom's army.

"I'm very sorry."

The mercenary leader lowered his head majestically.

"We have deviated from the established route. Those powerful guys from the guild can't come to support in time. The cave is full of dangers and there is not enough food. They can't last long... That gentleman means a lot to the continent of Ausua. I hope you can Help!"

He was candid and could tell the words of a cornered man.

The mercenary adjutant supported the seriously injured leader, afraid of being rejected, he hurriedly added: "If it succeeds, our guild owes you a big favor, whether it is wealth or supplies, we are willing to provide compensation."

"Let me think about it."

Ken turned his head and saw two heads on the watchtower, so he turned and walked away, leaving the mercenary leader fainting in despair and the irritable adjutant.

Kuima hurriedly arranged for the soldiers to take the man to the tribe to rest.

These details are seen by those around them.

Wu Senbu came up and asked in a voice that was difficult for others to detect: "Are you paying attention to details so much? I'm afraid that the kid will find out."

"Smart people can't hide, such as you."

Wu Senbu nodded and said: "Haha, then I was being reckless, your decision is the right one, so that even if we complete the task, there will be no evidence left in the mouths of others."

Before entering the gate of the tribe, Ken looked back at the location of the [Business Station].

Since Thornton Kaya was fully opened, some unidentified guys often appeared, including spies from the black market in the northern border, and scouts from the city-states in the southern border...

He has notes and can spot most crises.

"But as I said, it is useless to be cautious in front of smart people. We can only do our best, whether we can be deceived or not."

He asked his subordinates to take care of the two mercenaries, and asked Kuima to prepare for the trip.

Then Ken came directly to the watchtower, where Burke and the apprentice really stayed.

He saw that the tower was full of cooking utensils, and there was even a stream of water drawn by secret techniques...

"I'm almost wondering if the two of you are going to settle here."

Ken picked up the prepared tea and drank it. The taste was a bit stronger, just ordinary country stuff, not as amazing as the tea served by Selina.

The chief engineer of the Norland Kingdom, the salary is incomparable with that of the members of the Debunkers.

There is another possibility...

Perhaps [Burke Bartley] likes to be poor. This guy has a deep city, and he does things more casually, so he can't be treated as a normal case.

"Mr. Keen, don't look at me like this, you can speak directly if you have something to say."

Burke spread out his hands, smiling kindly, and his round belly also showed a harmless appearance to humans and animals.

"Did you hear what happened at the door?" Ken asked.

Burke and the apprentice looked at each other, showing an awkward and helpless smile, and said, "Do you think we have the ability to monitor, at least five hundred steps from here to the commercial station!"

"Oh, yes."

Ken satirized very calmly: "I thought that as long as what happened in the wasteland, you would know."

Burke rubbed the space between his brows, his expression extremely heavy.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Ken also laughed out loud, and his goal was achieved. He then repeated what the mercenary had requested just now, and then asked Burke.

"This mercenary group should be very famous. Since they are willing to spend a lot of money to ask for help, it means that the people who are trapped are not small."

Ken looked at the chief engineer of the Kingdom in front of him, "To be honest, I think you have the same influence."

Burke blushed and waved his hands.

Ken continued: "I didn't understand at first, why the Norlin Kingdom would let someone like you wander around the northern border. The entourage is just a few apprentices, and the most spineless person is McGonagall."

"The teacher ran out secretly..." the apprentice added weakly.

The scene was awkward, the air froze, and the praise disappeared.

Ken's flattering nonsense hadn't finished yet, and he couldn't open his mouth in an instant.

He looked at Burke with great disgust, thinking that Norin's king raised such a guy... the body must be very strong to withstand the mixed feelings of sorrow and joy.

"Cough cough."

Seeing that the other two were silent, the apprentice tried to break the deadlock.

"Actually...Miss McGonagall also ran out secretly. Although she didn't say anything, the carriage that Nolin Tulip is riding in must be guarded by at least six knights."

Ken raised an eyebrow.

He picked up the tea and looked at the old man in front of him with complicated eyes. While drinking, he changed his impression of Norin Kingdom.

"Let's get back to the point." Burke said, "You want to know who the other guy might be escorting, right?"

Burke shook his head impotently.

But he still suggested: "For a guild of this size, if you help, there will definitely be a lot of benefits. Now that the tribe needs help in its development, it is not wrong to have more power."

Ken stared into his eyes for a long time, then left without saying anything.

The apprentice looked through the gap, watched Ken leave, and then asked worriedly, "Did I annoy Zhan Jing?"

But Burke let out a long sigh, lazily fell asleep, and muttered vaguely:
"Hey, smart people can't hide it."
