Chapter 4 Merchants and Mercenaries

In Zhengqi College, the strength has reached the level of Wang Fei, and all actions have become free. They no longer need to take any courses or pass any assessment. As long as you accept the tasks assigned by the college and earn points from it.

In three years, Wang Fei and Gu Li have achieved a lot of points. However, in daily learning, the points are almost replaced by the star skills learned by the two.

No one has mastered more than 20 star skills by Wang Fei and Gu Li. In addition to the star skills learned by themselves, each person has at least two five-star skills that can be used.

The five-pin star skills are already the root of some powerful families. But in Zhengqi College, it is obvious that only students who have not graduated can learn it.

However, there are no more than 20 students of Zhengqi College who can learn the five-grade star skills. After all, any five-star skill requires more than 100,000 college points.

If you want to get a lot of points, you first need your own strong strength as a backing.

After Wang Fei sorted out some spare items, he was dressed in an ordinary gray robe with a dark iron rod in his back, just like a hunter teenager.

He picked up the backpack where the food was stored and hung a wine gourd around his waist. More than three years of student life has not changed the habit of alcoholism. On the contrary, almost half of the 10,000 gold coins won from Griff, plus the results of doing tasks in recent years, have been spent on alcoholism.

This time, it is said that it is to find a breakthrough opportunity. In fact, there are also a large number of reasons, because there are not many gold coins in his pocket and he has no money to buy wine.

After leaving Zhengqi College quickly, Wang Fei's figure appeared in the endless Lianyun Mountains.

"The sweep of teachers Xiao Lin three years ago almost slaughtered or drove away all the thieves around. Hey, poor thieves, their vitality has not recovered so far. Now if you want to make trouble for them, you must stay away from Zhengqi College!"

Wang Fei said to himself, but the pace under his feet was not slow at all. Almost every step is four or five meters away. And the frequency is difficult to see clearly.

His legs, like a rotating windmill, push his body forward rapidly.

The surrounding mountains and green water are fragrant with birds and flowers. Although the environment is not as good as the Zhengqi College, it is a little more wild than the unique nature. Any plant risks tenacious and strong vitality.

One after another, birds flew by from time to time, singing loudly.

Suddenly, a dark cloud flashed, and countless raindrops fell from the sky. After the breeze, the rain filaments kept getting bigger, and finally formed raindrops the size of rice grains.

"Bad! I didn't look at the lunar calendar when I went out. How could I choose such a day to go on the road? It's raining heavily. You have to find a place to shelter from the rain. I don't want to become a drowned rat on the first day of practicing alone!"

It's just that there are only sparse trees around, and there is no place to hide from the rain. He could only continue to move forward rapidly, lifting the speed, and almost used all his strength.

"Haha, there happens to be a cave in front of us, and now there is a place to hide!"

After speeding up, Wang Fei rushed towards the target. In less than three minutes, after a sprint, he rushed straight into a dark cave.

The raindrops outside fell down on the slope full of rocks, splashing countless small splashes. The raindrops the size of rice beat on the grass and immediately bent its body.

Wang Fei did not go deep into the cave, but continued to stay at the entrance of the cave, rarely watching the rain. Like the heavy rain of a bead curtain, once it falls, it doesn't know how to stop.

Time passed quickly, and at least two hours later, the heavy rain stopped. However, the dark clouds in the sky have not dissipated, and it will take at least half an hour to stop sideways.

Suddenly, a team of dark shadows appeared in the mountain stream attracted Wang Fei's attention.

"At this time, it is still moving forward in the rain, which should not be as simple as an ordinary caravan. After all, a caravan must carry rain gear. They should be valuable and need to avoid the thieves around them before they choose to move forward in the rain!"

In the past three years, Wang Fei has grown more than his own strength. As a qualified mercenary, the knowledge required is too extensive. Many things can't be taught by the school.

However, there are also some introductions in the textbook for this kind of situation. The caravan, mercenary and thief, three seemingly unrelated professions, are deeply related. Learning from caravans is also to enrich the experience of mercenaries.

After a flash, Wang Fei's body was immediately hidden behind a big stone at the entrance of the cave. And the dark light of the cave became his best cover. The outside sight was blocked, but he could observe the changes in the caravan.

"Master, there is a cave in front of us to avoid the rain. Shall we take shelter from the rain?"

"The cave? Chief Shen, if I want to avoid the rain, I won't order you to advance in the rain. We have to get out of the Lianyun Mountains quickly, otherwise we will be targeted by thieves and the escorted goods will be ruined!"

"But the brothers are tired and need to pay several times more physical strength than usual to move forward in the rain. In this state, it is even difficult to fight back!"

"The front is Zhengqi College. As long as we persist a little longer, after the scope of Zhengqi College, the thieves will not have the courage to enter the scope of Zhengqi College. At that time, we will be really safe!"

"The Zhengqi Academy is powerful, but will the thieves fulfill our wishes?"

......

A guarded mercenary regiment leader, a caravan employer. Both of them have their own reasons, but no one can convince each other.

Generally speaking, after the mercenary accepts the task, he needs to follow the employer's arrangement. Therefore, at this time, Director Shen could only persuade his brothers to continue to march in the rain.

"On the first day I went out, did something good happen to me? The caravan was obviously in trouble, but I didn't know if the thieves would appear. If it appears, you can take action to help the caravan overcome difficulties and earn enough money!"

After a little consideration, Wang Fei immediately decided to keep up with the caravan despite meeting thieves. He firmly believes that where there is a caravan, there will be thieves.

The heavy rain is still raining, and a shadow quietly shuttles between the covers in the rain. Big stones, trees, grass, and even small slopes have become the best cover objects. This shadow is Wang Fei.

The physical strength of the people in the caravan is obviously declining, and the speed of progress is gradually decreasing. The muddy road needs to pull heavy trucks. Although they had the help of animal power, they still exhausted them.

"Drive! Drive! Drive!"

"Dare to die, hurry up! This is the Lianyun Mountains haunted by thieves. If you don't leave, you will be besieged by thieves!"

"The Zhengqi College is in front of you. Let's work harder!"

The caravan is still moving forward, but at a slow pace, it will take at least more than a day to reach Zhengqi College.

At this time, Wang Fei, who was sneaking, suddenly stopped. With a solemn look, he whispered to himself, "I didn't expect that the thief would really appear! But the strength of these thieves is too strong!"

Thousands of meters away, Wang Fei can feel the evil spirit emanating from the thieves. In contrast, the mercenaries are as weak as the sheep under the tiger's claws and have no resistance.

Ten thieves with at least the strength of liquid stars, using their fast speed and vigorous posture to shuttle on the hillside. It only took four or five minutes to surround the caravan.

At this time, the employer of the caravan looked frightened and lost. He was very regretful, but there was no chance for him to regret. The gradual approach of the thieves made him deeply aware of the arrival of the crisis.

"I'm sorry, Chief Shen! I didn't follow your advice to have a disaster!"

"No! Lord, you are a businessman and don't understand the world of thieves at all. They will not be affected by the environment. It is an honor to take robbery. I didn't try my best to advise them!"

"This is not the time to say this, let's still think about how to get rid of the thief's attack!"
