1159 Contracting the war (1)
reporting to the city Lord, there are a few mercenaries here to apply for the position. However, their request is a little special, so we can’t make a decision. We need you to make the decision!
Having his thoughts interrupted by the voices of the residents, the city Lord of the Red Earth City showed an unhappy expression.
He had been busy for the past few days and was under a lot of pressure. In order to calm down and think about problems, he had specifically instructed that he was not to be disturbed unless it was something important.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the anger in his heart, the city Master asked in a deep voice, ” “It’s just a few mercenaries and you guys can’t even deal with them. You’re so useless!”
The cultivator from Lou Cheng sneaked a glance at Red Earth City Master, who was about to fly into a rage, and quickly explained, ” city Lord, you might not know this, but these mercenaries are not ordinary cultivators. Whether it’s their aura or their equipment, they are much stronger than ordinary cultivators!
After a short pause, the cultivator added, ” according to the Grand elder’s speculations, these mercenaries have extraordinary cultivation. The lowest should be a 1-star horde leader!
“Oh, is that so? that’s good news!”
Red Earth City master’s expression softened a little. Having several Lord-ranked cultivators join their side would be very helpful in increasing their strength. They could even play a key role in the battle.
A low-level city couldn’t be compared to a high-level city. Sometimes, a one-star Lord could be the strongest in the entire city. It wasn’t like a high-level city, where one could easily bring out many cultivator teams made up of Lord cultivators!
Nodding in satisfaction, Red Earth City Master asked again, ” “What did they request? are they not satisfied with the Commission? If that’s the case, you can raise the price accordingly and try to meet their requirements!”
In the eyes of the mayor, mercenaries were a group of desperadoes who fought for money. As long as the price was right, there was nothing they wouldn’t dare to do.
The cultivator shook his head and explained to Red Earth City Master, ” “If it was about the price, I wouldn’t have bothered you. But the request of these cultivators is a bit special, so the great elder asked me to invite you to go!”
Red Earth City master’s interest was piqued. He stood up from his chair and went straight to the square below the tower.
Because they were about to attack Ling Yan city, the atmosphere in the red Earth City was very tense. The residents of the city were everywhere, carrying swords and making their final preparations.
In the center of the square, several cultivators in black cloaks stood. They ignored the curious gazes around them and maintained their cold expressions.
The city Master sized them up and couldn’t help but nod. Just as his residents had said, these cultivators were all extraordinary.
Therefore, the mayor of Red Earth City became more curious about their special request.
“This is our city Lord, you can make your own requests now!”
After the elder of the red earth Tower introduced them, he retreated behind the city Master and looked at the black-armored cultivators with a serious expression.
“If you have any requests, you can tell me directly. As long as it’s within my means, I will do my best!”
Out of respect for the strong, the master of Red Earth City was very easy-going and didn’t put on any airs just because he was the employer.
Even if they couldn’t work together this time, they had to build a good relationship. Who knew, it might come in handy in the future.
Hearing this, the leader of the black-armored cultivators slowly said to Red Earth City Master, ” the purpose of our visit is to discuss a big business deal with the Red Earth City Master!
Red Earth City Master raised his eyebrows and asked in a calm tone, ” “Oh, what kind of big business is it? why don’t you tell me?”
I heard that your city is preparing to attack Spirit Rock City. That’s why I’m here. I hope that we can take over the battle!
Red Earth City Master was confused and couldn’t help shaking his head. He asked in a confused tone, ” sorry, I don’t quite understand what you’re talking about. What contract war? ”
The black-armored cultivator smiled and explained, ” it’s actually very simple. You’ll pay a sum of money, and then we’ll be responsible for launching an attack on the designated target. You don’t have to do anything during the whole process. That’s what I mean!
Red Earth City Master understood what he meant, but a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. At the same time, he said in a puzzled tone, ” “Forgive me for being blunt, but the enemy is too powerful, so I don’t think you have the ability to defeat him!”
It was normal for Red Earth City Lord to have such thoughts. Even if all of them worked together, they couldn’t guarantee that they could defeat Spirit Rock City. The final victory was only 50 – 50.
How powerful could these mercenaries be to claim that they could defeat Spirit Rock City without the help of the cultivators in the tower?
If it weren’t for the fact that the other party’s strength was indeed extraordinary, Red Earth City Master would have directly flicked his sleeves and left!
The black-armored cultivator didn’t care about the city master’s doubts. Instead, he continued to say in a calm tone, ” I know that you have doubts about our strength, but this is normal. After all, with your combined combat power, you may not be a match for Spirit Rock City, ” ye mo said.
Red Earth City Master snorted but didn’t deny it.
The black-armored cultivator didn’t care about the city master’s expression. Instead, he continued to say in a calm tone, ” since you’re not confident, why don’t you leave this matter to us? this way, even if our operation fails, Spirit Rock City will only seek revenge on us, and you will not be implicated!
Red Earth City Master was stunned. After rolling his eyes, he squinted at the black-armored cultivator.”What you said does make sense, but this is not a game. How can you guarantee that you can defeat Spirit Rock City?
Once they alerted the enemy, Spirit Rock City would be on guard, and it would be much more difficult to take action!
Unless you can prove that you have the confidence to defeat Spirit Rock City, I will not agree to this deal so easily!”
The black-armored cultivator nodded and turned to another black-armored cultivator behind him. He extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
The black-armored cultivator whose face had been covered by the cloak looked up, revealing a slightly ferocious purple face. He grinned at Red Earth City Master.
At the same time, a terrifying aura spread out from his body. It was as if a grenade had been thrown into a deep pool, immediately setting off a great uproar.
The cultivators of red earth Tower turned pale with fright when they felt the terrifying aura. They drew their swords and glared at the black-armored cultivator as if they were facing a great enemy.
Fortunately, the aura disappeared as suddenly as it appeared. As the purple-faced cultivator in black armor lowered his head, everything returned to normal.
When the terrifying aura appeared, Red Earth City Master quickly took two steps back and looked alert. After the aura was restrained, he secretly gasped and asked in a bewildered tone, ” “Sir, you are a King level cultivator?”
The black-armored cultivator in charge of the conversation with the city Master nodded and asked confidently, ” “City Lord, I wonder if this can prove our strength?”
Red Earth City Master immediately nodded and agreed.
The biggest obstacle in defeating Spirit Rock City was the Lord of Spirit Rock City, who was a King level cultivator. There was no king level cultivator in these low-level towers.
As long as they could stall or kill the Lord of Spirit Rock City, their chances of winning would increase greatly. Even if they had to exchange more low-level towers for less, they would definitely be able to destroy Spirit Rock City!
However, while he was pleasantly surprised, he was also very confused. Where did these black-armored cultivators come from?
