Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

In this era where the speed of information dissemination is not very fast, gatherings initiated by clubs are an important channel for an industry or a class to obtain information.

Although Hobert has never been a soldier and has no plans to join the army in Loen, he still wants to know some first-hand information about the northern and southern continents.

In addition, judging from the information on the information wall, this party should also involve the transaction of extraordinary materials and extraordinary items. The transactions of the mercenary club with a military background must have many extraordinary items suitable for use in battle. This is important for For Hobert, it will be an important channel to integrate into the extraordinary world.

So Hobert takes this party very seriously, but why do so many people go to the basement party instead of the third floor?

He looked at his pocket watch. It was just 1:20, and there was still more than an hour before the gathering time Anas told him.

After thinking for a moment, Hobert came to a realization. He put down the newspaper and came to the door of the basement, but he was stopped by the waiter.

This waiter is tall and has a strong face, and he looks more like a bodyguard.

The waiter said: "Sorry sir, this place is only open to some members."

Hobert was more certain of his guess. There was also a party going on in the basement, but it was a party of extraordinary people, while the party on the third floor was a party of ordinary mercenaries.

This is only reasonable. Otherwise, if there are a large number of ordinary people at the party, extraordinary transactions will become like illegal transactions and have to be carried out secretly.

Hobert asked, “What channels do I need to go through to get involved?”

The waiter said: "Prove yourself."

"how to prove?"

The waiter spread his hands and did not answer.

Hobert understood immediately. He opened his spiritual vision and looked at the waiter in front of him. The waiter's left shoulder was lower than his right shoulder. In addition, the waiter's left arm was protecting the left armpit intentionally or unintentionally.

Hobert concluded: "It would be easier to knock you down if I hit you under your left armpit."

The waiter was slightly startled: "Yes, my left armpit was injured on the battlefield. You, you have proven your ability, please."

Hobert smiled and nodded, walking down the stairs step by step.

The basement was bigger than he imagined, like a small theater, with a stage on one side and rows of seats on the other.

Considering the origin of this building, it is possible that this was once really a small theater.

There were already many people sitting on the seats. Different from other extraordinary gatherings, most of the people attending this gathering knew each other, so there was no need to wear masks or hoods to cover their faces.

There were just three or five people sitting together, chatting and waiting for the party to start.

Hobert found a corner and sat down. It was his first time attending a party. He only planned to be a bystander. After all, he had nothing to sell and didn't have enough money to buy anything.

At half past one, an old man with gray hair wearing a dress, a cloak, a golden mask, and gray hair came out of the back door of the stage. Hobert noticed that the shoes the old man was wearing had very long toes, and the clothes he wore were obviously out of touch with the times, as if he were a figure coming out of a classical oil painting.

However, the majesty he exuded made people dare not look directly at him for a long time, and they would even lower their heads in front of him unconsciously.

Hobert immediately made a judgment. This was a strong man of the Judge path!

The appearance of the old man immediately stopped everyone's discussion.

"Let's begin!" The old man sitting on the chair in the center of the stage seemed to be ordering.

The party officially started. A middle-aged man with a mustache in the front row was the first to stand up and said: "My mercenary team has just taken over the task of retaliating against the Feysac Empire. Now there is still a lack of someone in the team who is good at psychics." Teammates are required to be at Sequence 8 or above and have combat experience with the 'Warrior' pathway or the 'Hunter' pathway."

Someone asked: "Where are you going to take revenge on those sons of bitches?"

"I can't announce the specific location," the middle-aged recruiter said, "I can only tell you that it's in the Southern Continent."

"Not at sea?"

The middle-aged man did not reply, but everyone understood that the Loen Kingdom had no intention of retaliating against the Feysac Empire at sea.

Many people signed up immediately. The middle-aged man asked all the applicants to go to the second floor for interviews after the party.

Then another young man stood up and said: "About half a month ago, on the west bank of the Tasoke River in the north of Backlund, an extraordinary event occurred where a small forest disappeared and reappeared. I believe everyone still remembers this news. Last week I led the team on a field trip and determined that it was the remains of a Trunsoest family from the Quaternary Period.

"We speculate that there should be extraordinary items or extraordinary characteristics in the ruins. For unknown reasons, they have become active recently. Now we need to recruit a teammate of the 'corpse collector' path to deal with the evil spirits that may exist inside! Recruit another A teammate of the 'lawyer' path to deal with the side effects of extraordinary items and summarize the rules of use."

Hobert was a little moved. The Trunsoest family is an extraordinary family that controls the "Black Emperor" pathway. Regardless of whether there are extraordinary items or extraordinary characteristics in the ruins, there is a high probability that it is something from the "Black Emperor" pathway.

That's why the other party recruits teammates from the "Lawyer" path, that is, the "Black Emperor" path. Teammates with this path will be able to more easily summarize the side effects and usage rules of extraordinary items.

Hobert wanted to participate, but he was too weak to participate in such an operation and it was dangerous, so he had to give up this opportunity.

Later, some people formed a team to go to South Wales to investigate the cult organization, or formed a team to explore the southern continent.

Hobert was not interested in any of these, so he did not understand them in depth.

After the process of recruiting team members was completed, everyone started the trading process.

He also stood up to speak and explained what he wanted to sell or what he wanted to buy.

As Hobert expected, most of the items being traded were extraordinary items that could be used in battle, but they were expensive and he couldn't afford them now.

There are also people who will sell some extraordinary characteristics. These extraordinary characteristics are mainly concentrated in the "warrior", "corpse collector", "prisoner" and "hunter" pathways. These four pathways are currently the main opponents of extraordinary people in the Kingdom of Loen.

The "Warrior" and "Hunter" pathways mostly come from the old rival Feysac Empire, while the "Corpse Collector" and "Prisoner" pathways mostly come from the local Extraordinaries of the Southern Continent.

The party didn't end until about three o'clock in the afternoon.

Although the old man sitting on the stage only said "Let's get started" and "We'll be here today", as long as he was there, everyone felt confident about the deal here, and the mercenaries who formed the team also had a basic understanding of each other. of trust.

As people left the basement, Hobert secretly made up his mind: he still had to work hard to make money!

So after Hobert returned home, he once again studied the three cases that Barton gave him. Now only the lawyer's job can provide him with income.
