Arriving inside the city, what caught Lei Xiao''s eyes was an extremely spaciousrge street.
The ce is iid with gleaming crystal stones, and the neatly repaired roads are made of gray marble. On both sides are densely packed cksmith shops, taverns, treatment centers and various shops.
If you don''t count the roof and the mountain walls on both sides, it is no different from arge city.
Through Hui Lao''s introduction, Lei Xiao learned more.
This city is called Pioneer City. The city hasplete defense facilities and a total of 50,000 elite mercenaries stationed there.
In addition to the various facilities in the ordinary city, it also hasplete mercenary training institutions and various special training institutions, such as cksmiths, magic craftsmen, etc.
As for the residents in the city, in addition to the defenders, there are also arge number of mercenary families and old mercenaries who have retired from the battlefield.
Around the city, there are many fortresses and city guards under the jurisdiction ofrge and small guilds. In addition, this ce is located in the mountains, so it can be said to be impregnable.
"It is indeed a mercenary guild. In terms of scale, it is not inferior to the main hall of the Temple of Light."
Lei Xiao looked at the dazzling array of shops around him, and while epting the salutes of passers-by, he eximed in admiration: "Everywhere is filled with a reassuring smell of fireworks."
"Your Highness, you are so impressed. This is the outer city of Pioneer City. It is an area where ordinary residents live. There are not many magic traps and otherbat facilities, so it seems more lively."
The gray old man supported his beard and smiled, and continued to introduce: "Pioneer City is rich in industry, there are enough fields around it, and there is ample water in the city. It also has aplete sewage filtration magic array and exhaust magic array, so
enough to be self-sufficient. "
Under Hui Lao''s introduction, Lei Xiao and his group passed through lively streets and neatly nned residential areas one after another, and finally arrived at the middle area of ??the city.
There are well-proportioned training areas and barracks areas here, and there are even arge number of arrow towers and other defensive measures. Judging from the atmosphere, it is obviously much more solemn than the outer city just now, but the area does not seem to be inferior to that of the outer city. The outer city is home to arge number of residents.
"Your Highness, this is the training area I just mentioned. Not only can outstanding mercenaries selected from various ces be trained here, but it can also train the next generation of children who intend to be mercenaries from an early age. Of course, this includes not only In addition to those who are responsible for the battle, there are also talents in various fields such as economics,merce, and archaeology.”
There was a touch of pride in the words of the gray old man, and he nodded and said: "It is precisely because of this that the mercenary guild has been able to produce capable people over the years, stand calmly above the seven kingdoms of the human race, and make a contribution to protect the human race. A small contribution.”
"The old president is too humble. The role of the mercenary guild is more than just a small contribution. Whether it is guarding, finding objects, or hunting monsters and other tasks, it is an existence that cannot be reced by the ordinary garrison. , undoubtedly provides an important role for the order of the human world that cannot be ignored.”
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, smiled at Hui Lao and said: "In addition, with thepletion of the lordwork, the business structure of the human world will also undergo earth-shaking changes, which will definitely have a certain impact on the existing mercenary structure."
“However, the new changes also bring about a whole new
With the new opportunities, I hope that the mercenary guilds can work with local garrison forces to perform their duties and maintain the security of various lord nodes and surrounding routes to ensure the smooth flow of the lordwork. "
Lei Xiao''s dark eyes were piercing, and he added: "At the same time, as I step out of the outside world, there must be many things that I need to rely on the mercenary guild. After all,pared to the soldiers who focus on the battlefield, whether it is the ruins Mercenaries are better at exploring or traveling to secret and dangerous ces.”
"Thank you His Highness for considering the Mercenary Guild. We will do our best to assist His Highness. Please rest assured."
The gray old face was full of seriousness and he spoke to Lei Xiao.
After Hui Lao finished speaking, including Diana, the other senior members of the apanying mercenary guild also nodded, not daring to show any slights.
"Then I''ll help you all."
Lei Xiao nodded with satisfaction, and then, under the guidance of Hui Lao and others, he continued walking deeper into Pioneer City.
In the middle of the middle area, a group of people walked down the majestic stairs and headed straight to the bottom of Pioneer City.
Just like the main hall of the Temple of Light, the underground city is the most core and confidential area of ??the entire city.
After passing the staircase area, the first thing that caught Lei Xiao''s eyes was an extremely spacious corridor.
The decoration here is elegant, and the walls on both sides are filled with the heads of various monsters as decorations. Not onlymon low-level monsters, but also rare monsters such as unicorns can be seen.
At the corner of the corridor, Lei Xiao even saw the huge head of a green dragon, which made Hong Ye frown.
Apart from this
In addition, there are many transparent disy cabs iid in the corridor, which disy both specimens of whole Warcraft and bones of Warcraft, making it look like a Museum of Warcraft.
After Hui Lao''s introduction, Lei Xiao learned.
The specimens of Warcraft disyed here are all made by legendary mercenaries from past generations. It is the greatest honor for every mercenary to be able to disy the Warcraft he has hunted here.
"Haha, to be honest with you, Your Highness, the green dragon tried to attack the border vige of Holy Night Kingdom. Fortunately, I discovered it in time and finally appeared here."
Hui Lao gently stroked his gray beard. After introducing the giant dragon''s head, he pointed at another extremely huge elephant-shaped monster and said: "As for the fifth-level mammoth swamp beast, it was created by Diana. It also caused a stir in the mercenary guild."
"After all, this giant monster that lives in swamps and poisonous areas is extremely cruel. The poisonous miasma emanating from its body makes it difficult for even ordinary fifth-level experts to approach. Many mercenaries and adventurers have died here. In the hands of a monster."
After hearing Old Hui''s introduction, Lei Xiao looked at Diana, who was slender and exuding a mature charm, and praised: "As expected of the vice-president of the Mercenary Guild, it''s amazing."
"Your Highness, you are so polite. If necessary, I will be willing to hunt any magical beast for Your Highness at any time."
Hearing Lei Xiao''s praise, a shy smile suddenly appeared on Diana''s fair face, and she quickly said with a face full of urgency: "Your Highness, please give me whatever you want!"
"Vice President Diana, Mrs.
You''re wee, I will let you know at any time if necessary. "
Lei Xiao waved his hand and responded with a smile.
Seeing this scene, both Hui Lao and other senior members of the mercenary guild couldn''t help but smile at each other.
As a half-step sixth-level powerhouse, Diana has been trained by Mr. Hui personally since she was a child. She has extraordinary talents and rapid progress. She can definitely be regarded as one of the top three powerhouses in the mercenary guild.
But such an impressive strength naturally gave her a sense of arrogance. She looked down upon anyone, including the princes and nobles of various countries and the younger elites of the other two neutral organizations.
But now, she, who can be called the Iceberg Mercenary Queen, is so enthusiastic about His Highness the Holy Lion Prince. The answer is naturally self-evident.
After passing through the Warcraft Exhibition Hall area, Lei Xiao moved forward under the guidance of Hui Lao and others, and soon came to another area. On disy here were some ancient items unearthed from the ruins, including many Rusted equipment and brokenmon artifacts.
After a detailed inspection, Lei Xiao did not find the sacred object as the "Key of Truth". As for the equipment, it was in a state of rust and could not be upgraded at least until it was repaired.
However, this disy and collection, which was like arge museum, still made Lei Xiao and his group marvel.
At the same time, many precious items such as various magic gems needed to form ancient magic circles are also disyed here. Although these have exhausted their energy and look mottled, they can still make people feel a sense of simplicity and simplicity. A longsting atmosphere.
"The mercenary guild that hassted for three thousand years is indeed extraordinary. Even if it is seven
The royal family together may not have so many ancient items. "
Looking at the dazzling disy in front of him, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said: "It is undoubtedly the luck of the human race to have a mercenary guild standing in the human world."
Lei Xiao clearly understood that as long as hebined the information of the three major neutral organizations, mainly the mercenary guild, and the royal families of the seven kings, he would soon be able to draw a detailed distribution map of the ancient ruins in the human world. Perhaps there are There may also be some clues about the nk era.
"Your Highness the Prince has given you the award, it''s just the umtion of time."
The gray old man''s white beard was reflected on the long-standing magic gems, and looked a bit mottled. He couldn''t help but sigh softly: "In fact, during these hundreds of years, I have been leading the top mercenaries. Trying to aplish a big task, but never seeding.”
"oh?"
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao suddenly became very interested.
I remember Randall once said that the top brass of the Mercenary Guild had been pursuing a mysterious mission. It was said to be entrusted by a certainte king, which made me very curious at the time.
Now it seems that it is exactly what Hui Lao is talking about now.
Seeing Lei Xiao''s very interested expression, Hui Lao did not hold anything back and told the whole story: "To be honest with His Highness, there is only one specific content of the big mission, and that is to find the cracks in the cataclysm."
"Crack of Cataclysm?"
Lei Xiao carefully tasted Hui Lao''s words and nodded to indicate to the other party to continue speaking.
"Yes, we are looking for the cracks in the catastrophe. ording to the client, this will be the source of the catastrophe, and the location is in a corner of the human world."
gray old
His expression became more solemn, and he introduced: "I believe that if we can find this crack and take corresponding precautions, we may be able to reduce the danger caused by the catastrophe."
"So that''s it. Is this the truth about the mysterious mission?"
Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and his brain began to spin rapidly.
Just like what Hui Lao said, if we can find the source of the catastrophe andbine it with the power of the entire human world, we can indeed prepare for a rainy day to the greatest extent.
“But here’s the problem. No one knows the specific content of the catastrophe, nor what form it will take. Is there really this so-called source of the catastrophe?”
"To take a step back, even if there is a source, how does the client who issued the task know about it?"
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao frowned slightly.
ording to Randall, the client of this mysterious mission is a deceased human monarch. Who can have such an ability to predict the unknown?
"By the way, if it''s that guy, it''s indeed possible to predict the future!"
After thinking for a moment, Lei Xiao suddenly understood and asked Hui Lao: "Old President, if I guess correctly, is the client the first monarch of the Cold me Kingdom, the King of Heroes?"
"As expected of His Highness the Prince, I was just about to say something when His Highness guessed it first."
Hui Lao nodded in surprise and responded: "Back then, when the Mercenary Guild was helping the Cold me Kingdom build the Fortress, the King of Heroes actually entrusted another task at the same time, which was to find the cracks of the Cataclysm. It was also because of thismission. , Mercenary Lord
The meeting began to investigate the catastrophe. Find Shuyuan ”
"Furthermore, this mission is extremely confidential. Only the top leaders of the Mercenary Guild and the King of Heroes know about it. Even the sessors of the Lengyan royal family probably don''t know about it."
When he said this, the surprise on the gray old face became more obvious, and he asked doubtfully: "Your Highness, how did you know about this?"
"It''s just a little spection, it''s no big deal."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, with an enigmatic look.
The reason why I was able to guess the correct answer was naturally because of Wang Xi''s prompting talent.
"Through themunication with Wang Xi at that time, I have learned that his prompting talent does not allow him to ask questions on his own. Instead, a clue will appear from time to time, which cannot directly point to the truth of the matter."
"I''m afraid it was because of the reminder from his talent that Wang Xi learned about the Cataclysm Crack, but he didn''t know the specific location. After his own investigation failed, he secretly entrusted the task to the Mercenary Guild."
After smoothing everything out in his mind, Lei Xiao curled his lips helplessly.
It seems that this old boy still has many things that he has not told himself.
But it''s no wonder, after all, at that time, I couldn''t even subdue Ariel, let alone deal with the catastrophe.
Therefore, the other party who was pressed for time only mentioned it once instead of continuing tomunicate with me on this topic.
"In this case, the authenticity of the Cataclysm Crack must be beyond doubt."
Thinking of this, Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Old president, even if you haven''tpleted the task of finding the cracks, you should have got some detailed clues or information.
Got it? "
"His Royal Highness is indeed very good at predicting things. In the process of pursuing the cracks, I did learn something."
Hui Lao calmed down and began to describe.
