Kaidan had a good impression of the mage.
In mercenary organizations, there is always a lot of rich and inexperienced mages who can get rich rewards after releasing tasks. Privately, some mercenaries always call these mages fat sheep or unjust, but Kaidan won't do so. He is very grateful to those mages who have brought him wealth.
After learning that the war broke out in bulakada, Kaidan came to this snow area for the first time, looking for any chance for him to make a fortune.
"I didn't pay you gold coins to pour wine."
Sitting in front of the bar, Kaidan's fingers kept tapping on the cold and hard long table. The bartender in formal dress was pouring wine for him respectfully.
"You're late. All the high-value jobs have been taken away by those mercenaries." After filling the glass, the bartender said calmly, as if he had stated a fact that had nothing to do with himself.
"What?" Kaidan was unwilling, but he didn't dare to ask for help from the mercenaries who took over the task. He drank the wine in the glass angrily and slapped the glass on the table. "What broken wine are you pouring? How can you drink more and more sober?"
"Don't you like it? This kind of wine is quite popular among mages, and the price is a lot more expensive." The bartender took the wine glass, wiped the bar and looked at Kaidan again. "I give you a message. The mages have big moves in the eastern theater. There should be a lot of work there."
"Do you want to kill me? I just want to earn some gold coins, not go to the front and die."
Kaidan snorted. He was just a mercenary who received money to do business, but he didn't want to lose his life in the hands of the necromancer.
"The task of the front line should be left to the people of the Yunjian mercenary regiment. Those elathians have the courage to intervene in this war. Why don't they have the courage to set foot on the front line? It's really unlucky to rob my task now."
At the urging of Kaidan, the bartender changed a kind of wine for him, which is a kind of liquor rarely tried by the bragada. It is very necessary for the mage to keep his brain awake all the time. Drunkenness will lead to their mental decline, but the mercenaries don't pay so much attention to it.
The bartender shook his head: "not all mercenaries come here for reward, at least those elathians are not. Maybe the elathian authorities can't send reinforcements in the name of justice, but those mercenaries are not restricted. If you are willing to take errands, I have some here."
"Forget it, I'd better try my luck at the magic school. It's said that there are many escaped mages in the holy crown city. Maybe they can give me some tasks."
After drinking all the strong wine, Kaidan wiped his mouth, put down a few gold coins on the bar, turned away from the tavern and walked in the direction of the college.
When the war came, it was an opportunity for mercenaries to reap a windfall, but Kaidan couldn't be happy.
Errands? Did the bartender treat himself as a low-level mercenary? After all, Kaidan is also an S-class mercenary. He despises such low-level tasks. Only well paid tasks can impress him.
It's all due to the people of the cloud mercenary regiment. They took all the high-value tasks, but Kaidan didn't dare to confront them. The mercenary regiment is the official Army of elasia. In addition to the fully armed knights, there are even angels in it.
There was still some distance from the college, and Kaidan was stopped by a group of patrol mages riding bronze magic horses: "stop, who are you? Why are you close to the magic college?"
"I'm Kaidan, a mercenary of the freelance chamber of Commerce. I'm here to see if there's any work to do."
Seeing the S-class mercenary waist token shown by Kaidan and proving their identity, the patrol mages also showed a respectful look. During this time, mercenaries in the chamber of Commerce have done a lot of things for bracada, and even went deep into the area where the hero Tanan may exist to spy intelligence. Mages are also grateful for these helpers who came from afar.
After saying goodbye to the patrolling mages, Kaidan also came to the interior of the college and accommodated many mages from the attacked towns. At the moment, the magic college in the holy crown City, which used to have a strong academic atmosphere, has also become noisy.
Not far away, Kaidan saw a long team of mages. Those mages with families were passing through the portal one by one and moving to a safer area. It was the priests of the cloud mercenary regiment who were responsible for guiding in front of the portal.
Feeling the convenience of magic, Kaidan sighed slightly. He wanted to take a chance in the college to see if he could find the rich mages trapped here and take over the task of paying well. Now there seems to be little hope. I'm afraid that as early as the first time of the war, those rich mages fled to other areas with space magic. Which round can he meet?
However, things didn't seem so absolute. A burst of sobs came to Caidan's ears.
"Don't worry, our children will be fine." A well-dressed old mage with a huge emerald ring on his thumb is comforting the elderly woman sobbing beside him. The woman's neck is surrounded by a bright pearl necklace.
Katanton's eyes lit up when he looked for the object he had been looking for for for a long time: "Hello, old man, what can I do for you?"
The old mage patted the woman on the back and looked at Kaidan's clothes: "you're from the cloud mercenary regiment? Didn't I tell you the task?"
"In fact, I'm their competitor." Kaidan shrugged and said, "at this moment, I believe that the more people take over your task, the more likely it will be to complete the task, isn't it?"
The old mage thought about his words, and it was true, Then he said, "you can call me master tazis. When those hateful enemies attacked, my son longtar was trapped in the city of magic statues. I believe he must still be alive. If you can save him, I am willing to provide all the property of tazis Workshop... In case of misfortune, I will pay a lot of money for anything that can prove his identity."
Kaidan took a breath of air-conditioning. The task was indeed well paid, but it was more difficult than he thought. Considering the risks and benefits, it's not as good as those errands.
"Please don't worry, but I'll die for you," said Kaidan reluctantly
"Enemy attack!"
Just then, a loud warning came to Kaidan's ears. Before he realized what had happened, he saw a magic barrier rising in the whole city of trix, and several uninvited guests appeared in the sky.
