Chapter 816 Acceptance and Abyss Demon Refining - Barak (3K views, please vote!)

Upon seeing Gao Yang suddenly appear before them, Angie Bailey and the mercenary leader behind him both showed a burning look on their faces.

They had all witnessed Gao Yang's performance just now.

Despite facing twenty-nine opponents alone, Gao Yang easily slaughtered all twenty-nine legendary figures on the other side.

This terrifying combat power made mercenary leaders like Anja Bailey realize that the rewards for their previous desperate struggles were enormous.

Putting everything else aside, for every extra day Gao Yang stays with their team, when the team takes on another job, the employer will have to take into account the dignity of Gao Yang, a veteran legend in the field, when quoting a price.

A seasoned legend in the field would typically start their bid at one hundred magic gems during a bloodbath.

In this way, their captain, Angie Bailey, can accumulate wealth in the floating city much faster.

However, while the idea is appealing, whether it can be implemented depends on Gao Yang's choice.

Ange Bailey hesitated slightly as he pondered how to address Gao Yangcai in a way that would neither offend the other party nor appear overly humble.

Perhaps sensing his hesitation, Gao Yang smiled and said, "Captain Bailey, just call me Vice Captain Gao. After all, I am still the Vice Captain of the Warfire Mercenary Group."

Upon hearing this, Ange Bailey's hesitation vanished, replaced by a smile.

"Deputy Regiment Commander Gao, thank you for your hard work."

Gao Yang smiled slightly, stretched out one hand, and the dark red Zhuxian Sword Domain began to rapidly shrink.

In the blink of an eye, the Zhuxian Sword Domain, encompassing an area of ​​ten thousand meters in radius, disappeared.

The moment the Immortal Execution Sword Domain disappeared, the legends of the Chaotic Faction all breathed a sigh of relief.

They were genuinely afraid that Gao Yang, not having had his fill of killing, would also kill them as well.

For a seasoned legend in their field, killing those who haven't reached the level of seasoned legend or solidified legend wouldn't require much effort.

Now that their territory has been contained, it means they are unlikely to attack them.

Gao Yang's gaze swept over these legends, then he nodded slightly and transmitted his will telepathically, "Thank you all for your help earlier."

The multiverse has a common language, but Gao Yang is unsure whether these legends do. In contrast, the communication of spiritual will usually expresses a relatively clear meaning.

Just like now, upon sensing the gratitude contained in Gao Yang's spiritual will, the legendary powerhouses present all showed kind smiles.

Even the legendary demons, whose minds were filled with slaughter and destruction, had a smile appear on their ugly faces.

After expressing his gratitude to these legends, Gao Yang withdrew his gaze and looked at Angie Bailey in front of him, saying, "Commander Bailey, please release my friend first."

"no problem."

As Angel Bailey spoke, the staff in his hand emitted a dense surge of magical energy.

Then, he tapped the void beside him with his staff.

The seemingly empty void slowly opened up after the staff was pointed at it, revealing extremely luxurious furniture inside.

Meanwhile, Lidi was half-reclining on the soft sofa with his eyes closed.

However, upon sensing the spatial fluctuations, Li Di instantly opened his eyes, his sharp gaze sweeping warily toward the direction from which the fluctuations were coming.

Then he saw Gao Yang looking at him with a smile.

The wariness and sharpness in Li Di's eyes vanished instantly. He looked at Gao Yang, forced a smile, and said, "Boss, you're alright now."

Gao Yang nodded slightly and looked at Li Di, saying, "Li Di, the problem has been solved. Please come out now."

"it is good!"

Lidi nodded, then walked out of the alternate dimension where the mansion technique was located.

When he came out, his eyes held a hint of doubt.

This place was previously the epicenter of a fierce battle between two legendary factions, so why is there no movement here now?

Moreover, the legends of the Order side have all vanished by this time.

But his doubts didn't last long, as Gao Yang took out a Life-Giving Fruit and handed it to him.

Sensing the rich life force within, Li Di's somewhat listless spirit trembled slightly.

He took the Life Chloe and said with a smile, "Thanks, boss."

Gao Yang shook his head slightly, looked at him seriously and said, "I should be the one thanking you. If you hadn't arrived in time, things might have turned out very differently."

Lidi chewed the Life-Giving Chloe Fruit with gusto, feeling the rich life energy continuously repairing the injuries in his body, which gradually eased his tightly furrowed brows.

"Hey, why bring this up? If you hadn't agreed to my request without hesitation back then, I might still be lingering in the extraordinary realm right now."
If that's the case, even if I learned of your situation, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come and help you.

Lidi casually remarked that he understood this point very well.

Gao Yang nodded and didn't continue talking about the topic.

He turned to look at Milofina, who was perched on his shoulder, protected by the Nether Vine Armor, and felt a pang of heartache.

In the previous battle, Milofina forcibly shielded him from Er Goring's fatal blow, resulting in her being severely injured.

Although he wasn't dead, he had fallen into a coma and showed no signs of waking up. Just then, Angie Bailey's gaze fell on Gao Yang's shoulder, and he said, "Vice Commander Gao, does your cat-elf companion need medical attention?"

Gao Yang nodded, then asked in return, "Does Commander Bailey have any medical personnel he knows?"

“Of course!” Anja Bailey smiled.

As mercenaries, they live a life of constant danger and getting injured is commonplace.

They can handle minor injuries themselves, but more serious injuries, such as broken limbs, being corrupted by a curse, or those like House who have been in a berserk state for too long, require the help of a professional medical legend.

He looked at Gao Yang and quickly said, "We know a Life Bishop of the Resurrection Cult, who can treat most injuries like this."

After saying that, Anja Bailey sighed, a hint of pain appearing in his eyes, and said, "It's just that the other party's asking price is really too high."

“Price is not a problem. If it weren’t for your help this time, I might have died in the siege of the legendary powerhouses on the other side.”

Gao Yang took over and continued, "I will cover the treatment costs this time. Thank you all for your help."

As Gao Yang finished speaking, the mercenary leaders standing on either side of Angie Bailey couldn't help but smile with relief.

Then someone said, "Deputy Commander Gao, we are a team. In the past, these kinds of injuries have been paid for by the team's funds. We don't need to spend any extra money on them."

Upon being reminded, Angie Bailey quickly replied, "That's right, Deputy Commander Gao, we are a team, and injuries sustained during mercenary missions are covered by team funds."

All mercenary leaders knew this.

After saying that, Anja Bailey turned to the mercenary leaders beside him and said, "Leaders, don't you agree?"

When asked this question by Anja Bailey, the other seven mercenary leaders immediately responded.

“That’s right!” “That’s exactly right!” “Don’t worry, Deputy Commander Gao, we won’t have to spend our own money.”

As for why the team's treatment funds were used, it was naturally to definitively establish that "Gao Yang is part of the entire team."

If Gao Yang is allowed to make the payments, this wealth may not have much impact on him, but the relationship between his team and Gao Yang will be unable to progress further.

Originally, everyone risked their lives to come to the rescue, and it was a member of the team. But if Gao Yang really paid for the medical treatment, then it might change from being a member of the rescue team to rescuing an outsider who had just joined the team.

Therefore, it would be much more difficult, or even impossible, for Gao Yang to reintegrate into the team.

Gao Yang looked at the chattering crowd, thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, and did not mention again that he would pay for the treatment himself.

Just then, an undisguised aura entered everyone's senses.

Gao Yang and the others turned to look at the location of the bronze fortress, and saw a humanoid demon with bat wings, over twenty meters tall, flying slowly toward them.

Upon seeing the enormous demonic form, a legendary figure from the Chaos faction couldn't help but exclaim, "It's Barak!"

A deep sense of vigilance and apprehension flashed in the eyes of mercenary leaders like Ange Bailey. Ange Bailey then introduced Gao Yang and Li Di:

"Deep Prison Demon - Barak, a veteran legendary demon, and also one of the eight demon generals of the Bronze Fortress."

The other party is probably here for you, Deputy Regiment Commander Gao.

Gao Yang nodded slightly, his expression calm and composed.

A seasoned, legendary demon posed little threat to him.

Barak was very fast. Even though his flight looked somewhat relaxed, he still flew to Gao Yang and the others in just over ten seconds.

The enormous bat wings slowly folded back, and Barak swept his dark red, magma-like eyes over all the legendary powerhouses present, finally settling on Gao Yang.

"Solumuda (Devil's language: Gaoyang)?"

Gao Yang stepped forward and looked at Barak.

Barak scrutinized Gao Yang, then smiled and said in the universal language of the multiverse, "Lord Gao Yang, would you be interested in accepting Batiz's employment?"

When he spoke, his eyes were slightly lowered, revealing his kindness.

Gao Yang smiled and looked at the powerful Deep Hell Demon opposite him, saying slowly, "Regarding hiring, it depends on our leader. I am just an ordinary member."

As Gao Yang finished speaking, Angie Bailey and the other mercenary leaders behind him straightened their backs a bit.

Angie Bailey stepped forward and said, "Duke Barak, we have no intention of accepting employment at this time."

"That's such a shame."

Barak slowly shook his head and said with feigned regret.

Then, he changed the subject and looked at Gao Yang, saying, "So, Lord Gao Yang and Lord Ange Bailey, what are your plans next?"

After exchanging a glance with Gao Yang, Anja Bailey stood quietly to the side with an ambiguous smile on his face.

Gao Yang looked at Barak and said matter-of-factly, "The mercenary mission is over, so naturally we're returning. Does Duke Barak intend to continue fighting with us?"

Barak smiled and said, "Of course not, then I wish Lord Gaoyang and Lord Anje Bailey a safe journey."

After saying that, Barak spread his wings and turned to fly towards the bronze fortress.
