Chapter 12 Before the Crisis
After a battle, the wind mercenary regiment suffered zero casualties, which made the employer Wang Gen once again confirm that the escort team selected this time will definitely be able to complete the task.
However, after gathering everyone, Wang Fei's face did not have the joy of victory in the battle. After this time, their situation will certainly be noticed by the large thieves on the chaotic plain. Being able to gather such a large force to escort shows the importance of employers or the preciousness of carry-on items.
It is also Wang Gen's luck that he happened to meet the wind mercenary regiment. If hired on the terms he offered, although many large mercenary regiments can accept the task, they can't have many guards.
Like the Reputable First Mercenary Regiment, it is ready to accept this task, but at most two or three constellation divisions will be escorted. No matter how much it is, it is obviously not directly proportional to their gains.
Of course, with the strength of the mercenary regiment, you can accept more tasks for mercenaries with higher points and rewards. However, after all, they have little mercenary experience, and their numerical disadvantage prevents them from accepting large-scale mercenary missions.
To take a step back, even if they want to accept large-scale tasks, but without reputation, no matter how powerful they are, it is difficult for employers to accept them.
The final key to the task is also the employer who releases the task!
Considering that he was about to be besieged by more thieves, Wang Fei stopped and said to his companions: "Those departing thieves are likely to tell outsiders about our situation. Moreover, in order to split their own responsibility of fleeing without fighting, it may exaggerate our strength!"
Zhu San didn't think much at once and immediately replied, " boss, isn't this good? If we exaggerate our strength, then we can make thieves avoid us without having crooked thoughts on us!"
"That's not what I said!" Gu Li has matured and realized the meaning of Wang Fei's words. He explained: "After exaggerating our strength, we will definitely feel that the higher the value of the escort mission. At that time, driven by huge interests, if you want to take action again, the power gathered will definitely far exceed this time!"
"So that's it! So what should we do?"
After Gu Li's explanation, everyone looked at Wang Fei. In their minds, it came to them that since the boss could think of it, there might be a solution in their hearts!
Wang Fei shook his head slightly and said, "I have no good way. Unlike other places, chaotic plains can deflected and go around from the edge. If we want to cross it, we have to pass through its core. Moreover, it is surrounded by the eyes and ears of thieves, and it is not easy to avoid it!"
"We can't wait for the thieves to come, can we? The strength of the thieves on the chaotic plain is more than one level higher than that of the thieves in the Lianyun Mountains. If it comes to the senior constellation master, with our strength, who can resist except the boss? Crace said worriedly that after all, they were still young and their personal cultivation had not reached its peak.
"What the second brother said is only one aspect. Among those fleeing thieves, there is no constellation level. They may exaggerate some situations, but they will never exaggerate much. Moreover, during this period, my second brother and I did not take action, so if the news spread, the thief did not know that we had two intermediate constellation masters here. At that time, the strength of the offender may not be able to overwhelm us!" Wang Fei said an idea in his heart, which reassured his brothers a lot.
However, this is just his wishful thinking. The specific strength of the second thief can't be guessed out of thin air.
To this end, Wang Fei continued: "The key now is that we need to cross the core of the chaotic plain as soon as possible. And after that, every time you take action, try not to expose all your strength. From now on, the second brother and I will not take action unless we have to!"
Gu Li and others all understand Wang Fei's idea. Before reaching a dead end, it is still necessary to maintain the necessary aftertricks. Of course, as the surrounding thieves become stronger and stronger, this idea is more and more controlled in the end. After all, in the face of great threats, ensuring the safety of the surrounding companions is the most important.
After a short discussion, the group set the goal and then went on the road again.
This time, the speed of their progress has improved again. Wang Gen, the employer, followed the team with the help of several constellation masters.
But there is an obvious change. Gu Li and Wang Fei both pretended to be ordinary star masters and followed the brigade. And in order to ensure more realistic, just like several intermediate stars, they pretend to consume great star power all the way. In this way, the identity of the intermediate constellation master is hidden.
Of course, it is more important to hide your strong breath. It is not difficult for both of them to do this. After all, there are more than one or two of these tips in Zhengqi College.
As they continue to move forward, the surrounding environment has not changed at all. Originally, it was supposed to be a fertile plain, but under the embe of thieves, it has become a wasteland that no one cultivates.
There is no shortage of sunlight, moisture of the river, and fertile soil bags. But thousands of miles around, few people live except for thieves.
The end of the day, Wang Fei and others have come to the periphery of the core of the chaotic plain. A large river blocked their way. However, for the constellation master, it is easy to leap over.
But under Wang Fei's caution, he did not do so immediately. When they came to the river, many companions had consumed more than half of their star power. If you continue to move forward, you will undoubtedly lose all your combat effectiveness.
Therefore, he didn't care about the dangerous area. Wang Fei let everyone stop and have a time to adjust. Even a few constellation masters need to take a breath.
"Crace and Wu Er, you two work hard and go to the other side of the river to see how the situation is. Remember, be careful. If there is a situation, send it out immediately!" After arranging the person to rest, Wang Fei said.
Necessary exploration is indispensable. If there are a large number of thieves waiting for them in front of them, you need to consider how to go next.
After the two left, Wang Gen, the employer, appeared in front of Wang Fei again and said respectfully, "Lean Wang Fei, I was really surprised by your strength. This time, I am also honored to cooperate with such a powerful mercenary as you!"
"Mr. Wang, we are mercenaries and our own strength can ensure the safety of our employers. Don't worry, I will escort you out of the chaotic plain as soon as possible!" Wang Fei answered seriously and had no pride at all because of the other party's compliments.
"I'm relieved for you. Now the speed of progress is seven or eight days faster than I expected. As long as you walk out of the chaotic plain within a month and a half, things will be over successfully!"
Originally, at the speed of Wang Gen, it would take two or three months to cross the chaotic plain. It was the help of Wang Fei and others that made him speed up his pace, thus saving time.
"That's good, that's good!"
"With your strength, you can definitely make a name on the Star Continent in the future. However, I want to ask, if I want to hire you again in the future, where do I need to find you?" Wang Gen asked weakly.
Wang Fei was very surprised that he could take out 300,000 gold coins to hire a team to cross the chaotic plain. After all, the other party doesn't have any goods.
And now he wants to continue to hire them in the future. Although repeat customers are very important, what is he going to do?
With Wang Fei's eyes, he looked at Wang Gen carefully. The other party's body and temperament were by no means as simple as a businessman. But since you can take out a large amount of gold coins, you are not a businessman or a powerful constellation master, is it the children of the family?
Thinking left and right can't get a complete answer, which made Wang Fei immediately give up thinking and replied with a smile: "In the next few years, we will wander on the Star Continent to undertake the task. If you want to hire us, just send a message in the mercenary alliance!"
