Section 258 Consciousness

The next day, Mo Li arrived at the palace as scheduled.

In the mercenary guild, Mo Li, Miller, Miffy and Nick are standing at the counter. At this time, the staff are changing the mercenary token for them. Ruth has announced that they have completed the previous bandit mission. Therefore, the "Feller Mercenary Regiment" rose directly from the E-level mercenary regiment to D-level. And I got a lot of money.

"This is the three-digit token, please keep it." The incident of "bandits" has caused a lot of trouble in the city, and Mo Li ordered the fire slave in public that day, so their names have been known all the way. This staff member is no exception. Although the "Feller Mercenary Regiment" is only D-level now, everyone is convinced that its future is very ambitious. Therefore, for the three people, the staff seemed very respectful.

Mo Li took back his own token and found that there was no other change in the whole token. It was still made of brass, but the "E" on the back has now become "D".

"Is there anything else I can help you with?" The staff said with a smile.

Miller nodded and pointed to Nick, who was not yet tall at the counter and said, "We still have another person to join the mercenary regiment. Please help us with the procedures for joining the regiment."

"He?" The staff asked incredulously. The child in front of us is only six years old at most, and he joined the mercenary regiment at the age of six? He really couldn't accept it for a moment.

"What? Can't you?" Mo Li took Nick's little hand and asked.

When he separated from Nick last night, Mo Li decided to let Nick join the Feller Mercenary Regiment. After all, if you want to take him to Telland, it will be much more convenient to join the mercenary regiment. Just this morning, Nick also declined Mo Yan's kindness to let him stay in Haixing Town and told him that he would go to Telan City with Mo Li to meet his master. Mo Yan originally wanted to keep him by his side. But considering his future and their strength. I promised them helplessly.

The staff immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, anyone can join the mercenary regiment as long as the regiment commander agrees."

Miller said with a smile, "Then please help us deal with it."

"Okay." The staff took out a white sheepskin roll from under the counter and turned to ask, "Name, age, occupation."

Nick, six years old. Occupation..."

"There is no career yet." Before Nick finished speaking, Mo Li said first. Then I took a look at Nick. Although Nick didn't know why Mo Li didn't let himself talk about his career, he nodded and said nothing out of trust in him.

Mo Li's idea is actually very simple. Beastmaster has always been a mysterious profession in the empire and even on the continent. So he doesn't want people to know Nick's profession. Maybe this is in the protection of him.

It didn't take long for Nick to get his own mercenary token. Then everyone happily walked to the mission version. This time they have decided not to waste any more time. After all, there is less than half a year left for the college to accept new ones. In addition, Nick still has a three-month appointment with his master, so everyone decided to go to Telan City as soon as possible. At this time, I was looking for a task on the way.

Coincidentally, it didn't take them long to find a qualified task.

"Mission Level: Level D. Mission requirements: Escort the caravan to arrive in Telland City safely. Reward: 800,000 gold coins. Note: The owner selects those who accept the task according to needs and is not limited to hiring a mercenary regiment. If it is larger than a mercenary regiment, the remuneration shall be distributed equally according to the regiment. Task serial number: D317.

"This is it." Miller smiled and said, "It shouldn't be too dangerous to escort the caravan."

"Hmm." Mo Li nodded. That's it. But I just don't know if they will choose us."

"Try it and you will know." Nick took Mo Li's hand and said.

"That's right, try it." Miffy seems to like Nick very much, but Nick is cold to anyone except Mo Li. No matter how much Miffy shows his goodwill, he is indifferent. Who knows what wrong with this unruly girl? Although Nick has never paid much attention to her, she just didn't give up and did everything she could to please him.

In this way, the four took over the task together. The staff told them that they would reply in an hour and ask them to go back to the inn to wait. Several people will definitely not go back to the inn. They have just received the first reward, of course, shopping.

In the inn where Mo Li lived, there were four people sitting in an inconspicuous room, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a slightly bulging belly made him look like a rich man. The other three are young men in their twenties. At this time, four people were sitting at the round table in the room, doing research. A dilapidated map is placed on the round table.

"Vice President, the things we deliver this time are extremely important. If there is a slight mistake, we can't bear this responsibility." A young man with a beard at the corners of his mouth said cautiously.

The middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes is the vice president of this population. After standing up and walking a few laps, he said lightly, "I know this, but fortunately no one knows what we really ship. We should be able to easily reach Telland under the cover of jewelry and gold, and with the hired mercenary regiment.

"Indeed," the young man asked, but there is one thing that his subordinates don't understand. Since this mission is so important, why do we only hire those D-level mercenary regiments? Why not directly hire S-level or above? I think the Chamber of Commerce can still afford this commission.

The yellow-haired young man sitting opposite him smiled and said, "You don't know this. The reason for this shows that our vice president is smart."

"How do you say this?"

"Do you think the attraction of the caravan escorted by the D-level mercenary regiment or the S-level or even the SS-level escorted caravan?"

"That's right. This is called covering people's eyes and ears. Another thin young man smiled and said, "Vice President, is that right?"

"Well, you're right." The vice president nodded and said, "I made this specially to cover people's eyes and ears."

"But what if you meet a powerful robber?" Eight-character Hu asked.

"Have you forgotten that our chamber of commerce is not just an ordinary chamber of commerce? It can be said that this time we bring those subordinates not only ordinary guys, but also extremely powerful fighters and magicians. Their strength is even comparable to that of S-level mercenary regiments. Besides, even if we can't resist it, just give them all the gold, silver and jewelry. The vice president said with a smile.

"You are still thoughtful, vice president, boy is willing to bow down." The eight-character Hu said respectfully. A trace of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

The vice president waved his hand and said, "Koizumi, you go to the mercenary guild now and choose a few powerful mercenary regiments. If possible, let's leave tomorrow to avoid long dreams."

Hu Koizumi answered respectfully and said with a smile, "Vice President, don't worry, Koizumi will definitely choose a mercenary regiment that will satisfy you."

"Hmm." The vice president answered, put away the map on the table, and said with a smile, "It's getting late. Arrange it. Let's go to dinner together."

Today can be said to be the happiest day for Mo Li and several people. Everyone is like an upstart. They can buy whatever they see, eat, use and wear almost everything. Fortunately, several people have space to store things, otherwise it is not easy to get so many things back.

Nick is the happiest of several people. Because of his small age, everyone took great care of him. Although he did nothing to pay this time, he sold everything he wanted.

On the way back to the inn, the staff of the Mercenary Guild found them and told them that the "Feller Mercenary Regiment" had been hired by the caravan and asked them to meet in front of the Dongcheng Gate at sunrise tomorrow. When everyone arrived, they would set off for Telan City.

The next day, before dawn, Mo Li and the four walked out of the inn. At Mo Li's request, Nick asked the Unicorn King to go to Telland by himself. He and Mo Li are in the caravan with them. By the time they arrived at the gate, a large group of people had gathered there.

"Are you the Philaer Mercenary Regiment?" Seeing the four people walking over, a man with a beard under his forehead walked to the four people and asked with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Miller, the head of the Feller Mercenary Regiment." Miller walked up and stretched out his hand and said enthusiastically.

The eight-character beard is exactly the Koizumi yesterday. This man is about 1.56 meters tall, wearing a light blue samurai robe and carrying a long sword on his back. He took Miller's hand and said with a smile, "It turned out to be the commander of Miller. I'm Koizumi of the caravan. Everyone has arrived. Please follow me." With that, he walked to the previous pile of people.

"Now the people should be here." The vice president with thick eyebrows and big eyes said with a smile, "Okay, then I will talk about the things that need to be paid attention to in this mission. What our caravan needs to transport is to make profits from the Underworld. Because it is a long way, please ask your three mercenary regiments to help protect it.

At this time, everyone noticed that in addition to them, there were more than a dozen people standing here, presumably the other two mercenary regiments.

The vice president continued: "You don't need to do anything deliberately. As long as there are bandits or thieves, they can help us deal with it. When the caravan arrives in Tehran, it is the day when everyone completes the task. We have prepared the horses we need for everyone, and we will be responsible for all the consumption on the road. After looking at everyone present, he asked, "What comments do you have now?"

Mo Li and Miller looked at each other and nodded.

"Since everyone has no objection, let's go." The vice president said with a smile. Then everyone got on their own horses and walked vastly to the east. The caravan has been walking east along the official road.

There are no words all the way. Due to the large number of people and the transportation is not important, the caravan has always been safe and sound. When the sun was about to set, they just arrived by a dense forest. Originally, I could have been bypassing the forest along the official road, but in order not to delay the trip, I chose to cross the forest. Because this forest is an extremely safe ordinary forest, there are no monsters at all.

When the moon came out, the vice president stopped the motorcade and asked everyone to rest in the forest tonight, and the three mercenary regiments took turns to watch the night. Mo Li and they were very lucky to be on duty for the first night.

"Mo Li, you and Nick are responsible for the left half, and Feifei and I are responsible for the right half. Remember not to act alone if you find anything abnormal." After saying that, Miller also squeezed his eyes at Mo Li, which could not be more obvious. Now we are not the only mercenary regiment, and we can't be responsible for it alone.

Mo Li nodded and took Nick's little hand to the left of the motorcade. After walking a distance, Mo Li turned his head and said to Nick, "Brother, you must be exhausted after a day's rush. You don't have to be on duty tonight. Go to sleep on that big tree. Don't worry, I will wake you up when we hand over.

"Brother, I'm not tired. I want to stay with my brother." Nick said cleverly.

Mo Li nodded his forehead and said with a smile, "Little devil, good boy, go quickly. My brother knows that riding a horse is very tiring.

"Brother..." Nick called a little moved. Mo Li is right. The little guy is really tired at this time. He hasn't been on horseback since he was a child. Today, he has been bumpy all day and is really tired. However, he feels that since he is part of the mercenary regiment, he should be with everyone. Now that Mo Li loves himself, how can he dare not move?

"Good boy, go ahead." Mo Li said with a smile, then flew over the top of the tall tree, put him safely between the branches, and whispered, "If there is a situation, don't come down easily without my permission."

"Hmm." Nick nodded, and Mo Li flew down and turned around the caravan. As time goes by, there is no other sound in this forest, only summer insects that keep chirping. Mo Li leaned against a big tree and looked at the bright moon in the sky through the cracks in the leaves. Just as he was distracted, a sound of footsteps brought him back to reality.

"What about Nick?" Miffy's crisp voice sounded.

Mo Li turned around and saw Miffy standing in the moonlight and looking at herself with a smile. Mo Li's heart moved for no reason, and his eyes could not be removed from the lovely body.

"I'm asking you!" Miffy was a little uncomfortable to be seen by Mo Li, and her little mouth pouted angrily.

Mo Li didn't react until then. Well, I let him go to bed."

After hearing this, Miffy nodded and said, "That's good. I suddenly felt that it was wrong for us to bring him here. After all, he is still young."

Mo Li shook his head and said, "This is not a bad thing. At this time, suffering will help him a lot in the future."

Miffy walked to Mo Li, leaned against the big tree next to him, and said sadly, "That's right, but we are still carefree children at this age, but he... Mo Li, we have to take good care of him."

"Hmm." Mo Li answered and looked up at the bright moon in the sky. A few black clouds floated from the side, covering the bright half moon. Well, what about the Miller brothers? Isn't he with you?"

"My brother is still patrolling. I'm just worried about little Nick, so I came here to have a look."

"Hmm."

The two had nothing to say for a moment, so they were so silent. Although Mo Li was full of affection for Miffy, he didn't know how to speak when he faced her alone. Although I was a little annoyed, I just couldn't say a word.

Time continued to pass. The two leaned on the tree without saying a word, just so silent. No one took the initiative to speak, and no one took the initiative to leave.

A white cloud floated over and covered the moon in the air, and the surrounding light was dim. Mo Li turned his head to look at Miffy, but when he turned his head, Miffy just looked at him. The two looked at each other and quickly turned their heads. Mo Li clearly saw a trace of panic in Miffy's eyes.

"You..." Both of them said at the same time, but both stopped.

"You say it first." After a while, he lowered his head and said.

Mo Li looked at Miffy and said, "You'd better say it."

"What are you talking about? It's so mysterious." At this moment, Miller didn't know where he came from. The embarrassing scene between the two just now fell into his eyes. A smile bloomed on Miffy's face.

"Brother..."

"Brother Miller..."

"Why can't I find you? It turns out that you are hiding here and being lazy." Miller said with a smile.

Mo Li's cheeks turned red. No, we're talking about Nick..." He suddenly stopped here, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face.

"Why..." Miffy's words were interrupted by Mo Li before he could speak. He closed his eyes and listened carefully to something.

Seeing Mo Li like this, the two couldn't help but be cautious and looked around. At this moment, Mo Li's body shook, and a red light had appeared on the soles of his feet. The magic wand in his hand waved, and his body "whew!" Flew out and flew in the right direction of the caravan.

"Feifei, stay here and don't move. I'll follow you and have a look." Miller turned his head and whispered to Miffy.

"Hmm." Miffy nodded and said, "You should be careful."

Miller nodded and followed in the direction of Mo Li.

The moonlight poured down like running water on the open space between the trees, and the breeze swayed the black branches. Miffy leaning against the tree suddenly panicked for no reason. Subconsciously look around. A few dark yellow lights shot from the side of the convoy, and there was nothing strange around.

"Wow!" Miffy took a deep breath and said to herself: Miffy, you are such a coward. Then he turned his head, and a chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head! She subconsciously wanted to shout, but a hand had been pressed on his soft mouth.

"Don't call me, it's me." It turned out that when Miffy turned her head, she saw a flash of a figure in front of him.

It's Mo Li who came. Miffy knocked off his hand and said angrily, "What are you doing? Did you deliberately scare me?"

Mo Li shook his head and said, "I'm worried about you. There's something nearby."

"Ah!" Miffy exclaimed when she heard Mo Li's words, grabbed his arm and asked, "What is it? Didn't they say that there are no monsters here?"

Mo Li shook his head and said, "I don't know what it is. Brother Miller has gone to inform others. I'm worried about you, so I came here."

"Then let's go there now."

"You shouldn't come out to be a mercenary if you are so bold." At this time, a female voice full of contempt came from not far away.

Then I heard Miller's retort. We really found a special situation. Please pay attention to your words and deeds.

"Mo Li, let's go and see who is so unbred." Miffy, who was afraid, suddenly said angrily after hearing the conversation on the motorcade. He took Mo Li's hand and walked towards the motorcade. Mo Li was also happy to be led by him and followed Miffy. By the time they got there, everyone else had come out. A blue-haired woman in a long red dress is arguing with Miller.

"Who is this, so unbred?" Miffy pulled Mo Li to the blue-haired woman and said sarcastically.

Thinking about the past, Mo Li doesn't know what's wrong with him.
