Chapter 819 The Role of Legendary Reputation (3K votes needed for monthly tickets~)

Gao Yang stood up, looked at Anmianno across from him with a serious expression, and said, "Thank you, Bishop Anmianno."

Milofina perched on Gao Yang's shoulder, bowing her head as she said, "Thank you so much~"

“No need to be so polite, it’s my duty, and besides, it’s not free.” Anmiano’s smile was as warm and welcoming as ever.

Huh? It actually costs money?

Milofina tilted her head and looked at Gao Yang curiously, asking, "Gao Yang, how much did it cost to treat me?"

Gao Yang was taken aback. He really didn't know this, since it had been agreed that the expenses would be covered by the mercenary group's collective funds.

Just then, Anmiano smiled and said, "This cat spirit spent seventeen magic gems, Mr. House spent fourteen magic gems, and the other gentleman only spent three magic gems."

"Meow!!!"

Milofina's cat eyes widened in disbelief as she stared at the gentle, smiling older sister opposite her. Her little head simply couldn't understand how such a kind and beautiful older sister could utter such chilling words.

Seventeen magic gems!

There were a full seventeen of those! Milofina didn't have seventeen magic gems in her entire fortune!

Thinking of this, Milofina suddenly looked at Gao Yang pitifully and asked with a wronged expression, "Gao Yang, I can't afford the treatment fee. You're not going to sell me, are you?"

Gao Yang smiled and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, I will pay for it."

If Gao Yang hadn't known the specific costs, he might have been able to accept the mercenary group's shared funds to pay for it without feeling guilty.

But now this expense is so huge that he can't enjoy it with a clear conscience.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Yang took out fifteen magic gems from his backpack and handed them to Anmianno opposite him, saying at the same time:

“Bishop Ammiano, the treatment cost for Milofina and Lidi is a total of twenty magic gems. I will pay fifteen of them. Please do not tell Captain Beli about this, Bishop Ammiano.”

Let's deduct these fifteen magic gems from the total price.

Anmiya faced Gao Yang, and with her exceptional intelligence, she understood the meaning behind his words in an instant.

She thought for a moment, smiled, and reached out to take the magic gem Gao Yang offered, saying gently as before:
“Yes, sir, I know how to talk to Commander Bailey.”

"Thank you."

Gao Yang nodded, then walked out of the treatment room on his own.

Upon seeing Gao Yang emerge, Ange Bailey stood up and asked with a smile, "Deputy Commander Gao, Ms. Milofina, how are you feeling now?"

"Meow~ This feels great."

Milofina, perched on Gao Yang's shoulders, replied casually.

"That's good."

Anja Bailey breathed a sigh of relief and then said, "Deputy Commander Gao and Ms. Milofina, please wait a moment while I go to settle the bill."

With that, he and Ammiano walked toward the inner side of the temple.

Milofina watched this scene, and although she had some questions, she did not ask them.

Soon, Anja Bailey paid his bill and returned to the group.

He looked very relaxed; clearly, the cost was far less than he had anticipated, which put him in a good mood.

Rumble~
The temple gates slowly opened, and Gao Yang and his group walked out of the temple, turning to look at Anmiyano standing inside the temple gates.

Anja Bailey gave her a deep look, then took his leave: "Anmianno, we'll be leaving now."

"Be careful on the road~"

Anmiya's hands were still folded over her lower abdomen, and she had a faint smile on her face.

After Angel Bailey finished speaking, the group walked away from the settlement.

Alden and House exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

But they didn't say much, they just kept moving forward in silence.

The matter between Angel Bailey and Anmiano can only be resolved by themselves.

"Hey! Gao Yang, should we stay on the battlefield?"

Milofina looked at the mercenary base in the distance and asked with some confusion.

As soon as Milofina finished speaking, she clearly felt several gazes fall on her.

Gao Yang patted her little head and said with a soft laugh, "That's right. Now that we've all advanced to the Legendary level, as long as we don't encounter any gods personally taking action, we can basically protect ourselves."

There's no harm in gaining more experience on the battlefield.

Moreover, legends are richly rewarded in bloody battles.

Upon hearing this, Milofina immediately recalled the fifteen magic gems that Gao Yang had paid for her earlier, and she instantly understood Gao Yang's meaning.

"Gao Yang, I'm sorry~"

"Ok?"

Gao Yang looked at Milofina with some confusion, wondering why she suddenly said that.

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't need to pay."

Before Milofina could finish speaking, Gao Yang interrupted her: "Don't overthink it, I don't need that little bit."

Gao Yang rubbed Milofina's little head vigorously and said with a smile.

"Alright~" Milofina visibly cheered up again. She turned to look at Lidi and casually asked:

"Garuda, where is your fiancée? I haven't seen her." Lidi Garuda smiled helplessly and said, "Milofina, this is a battlefield of blood and death. Even legends can perish here if they are not careful."

"Lia hasn't reached Legendary status yet, so naturally I won't let her come along."

"That's true, but thank you so much for arriving in time this time!"

Milofina said, proudly raising her little head: "From now on, you and Gao Yang will both be under my protection!"

Lidi understood Milofina's meaning and agreed with a smile.

With a legendary cat spirit providing assistance, Lidi's survival rate would be significantly higher.

Anja Bailey then spoke up, "Vice Commander Gao, you all go and rest first. I'll make some contact and see if there are any new mercenary missions."

"Ok."

Gao Yang nodded slightly, and then the group parted ways.

Gao Yang led Milofina and Lidi back to his barracks, where the two of them and the cat sat around the round table in the room.

With one thing after another happening, even Gao Yang didn't have time to calm down and think things through.

Now that Lidi and Milofina have recovered and no new mercenary assignments have been given, the three of them have finally gained some free time.

"We expect to stay in the Bloodbath for another fifteen days, mainly to accumulate combat experience with the legends and to build up wealth."

Gao Yang's gaze swept across Lidi and Milofina's faces before he continued:

"Fifteen natural days later, we'll withdraw from the bloodbath. Is there a problem?"

Li Di shook his head. Gao Yang had already told him about this plan before, so naturally he wouldn't disagree.

Milofina wasn't concerned with the battle against the Legendary, since she was just a support character. What she was more interested in was the commission she would receive after becoming a Legendary.

"Gao Yang, now that we're already legendary, how much will our commission be?"

This problem wasn't difficult for Gao Yang and Li Di, but it was quite difficult for Milofina.

Milofina wasn't very good at math, and her little brain simply couldn't figure out this kind of thing.

Gao Yang quickly calculated in his mind, and then looked at Milofina and said, "The Blood War Mercenary Group itself has nine legends, and with the three of us, that makes twelve."

The legendary commission will be increased eightfold, meaning that for a single hired mission, each of us should receive between fifty and one hundred magic gems.

"How many?!"

Milofina's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, her eyes widened, and she looked at Gao Yang in disbelief.

She's just bad at math, but that doesn't mean she can't count.

She could tell whether eating one dried fish or eating ten dried fish brought her more happiness.

Not to mention Milofina, even Lidi was secretly astonished.

He had considered that hiring a legendary figure in Bloodbath would be expensive, but he truly hadn't expected it to be this high.

Even if we calculate it at fifty magic gems, if you take on five mercenary missions in half a month, that's a total of two hundred and fifty magic gems.

This would be a considerable fortune for any legend.

If you use them sparingly, you won't have to worry about resources for the next few decades of cultivation and consumption.

Perhaps noticing their surprise, Gao Yang thought for a moment and said, "One reason there are so many is because our Legendary Team has a large number of members."

On the other hand, it's because of me.

"Because of you?" Milofina asked, puzzled.

Gao Yang nodded: "That's right, because in the eyes of other legends, I am now a senior domain legend. You know what a senior domain legend is, right?"

"Our mercenary group has a senior domain legend. You can't possibly not know about a senior domain legend, right? Not to mention Vice Commander Gao, our team also has a legendary archer and a legendary support professional."

The commission would increase several times over if these two factors were combined.

But now, you've only tripled our commission, haha~

In the mercenary headquarters, Angel Bailey looked at the figure inside the magic sphere in front of him, letting House roar at the magic sphere while he sneered inwardly.

Beside him, Alton, Katarina, and others also wore stern expressions.

Startled by House's barrage of angry shouts, the figure inside the magic sphere paused noticeably, before a voice devoid of any emotion emanated from it:
"Wait a moment, I need to update the information and number of legendary powerhouses in the Blood War Mercenary Group."

Upon hearing the words coming from inside the magic sphere, Angel Bailey and the others' expressions softened slightly.

After all, they are a major client with whom we have cooperated for a long time. It would be inappropriate to break ties with each other. Maintaining this tacit understanding is more in line with the way of cooperation.

Soon, a voice came from the magic ball again.

After hearing the offer, Anja Bailey and the others couldn't help but show a look of extreme satisfaction.

However, in an instant, Anja Bailey's expression turned serious, and he warned, "Don't let your guard down. Although the reward is higher, the level of danger is also much higher than before. If you're not careful, you might get the money but not live to spend it!"

Upon hearing Angie Bailey's words, the others immediately snapped out of their reverie about the high reward and all nodded earnestly in agreement.

Seeing that everyone had calmed down, Angie Bailey looked at House and instructed him:

"House, go find Vice Commander Gao and explain the details of the next mercenary mission to him. As for the reward, it's two hundred magic gems."

As for Lidi and Milofina, their compensation will be the same as ours.

House nodded silently, then turned and quickly left.
