Chapter 528: Guest and Mercenary

Chapter 528: Guest and Mercenary

"Oh? What's your order, Your Excellency?"

Putting down the roasted and frosted leg of lamb that was sizzling with oil, Old Walter thought, his lips and long gray beard, which were originally a little greasy, were filled with water vapor, and they were clean as before.

As a fourth-order eight-star magician who has mastered water magic, it is naturally easy to clean himself.

The other two elderly great magicians beside him also put down the food in their hands, and began to pick up the white magic mouthcloth, and wiped it back and forth on their hands.

It is worth mentioning that this kind of magic mouthcloth can only be used as a daily necessities by the noble class.

Although it looks the same as ordinary napkins, it is equipped with a cleaning spell, which can completely wipe off the oil on the hands and mouth, which is quite miraculous.

At the same time, Lei Xiao noticed.

Judging from the satisfied expressions on the red faces of the three old magicians, it is obvious that they are all very satisfied with these delicacies.

"To tell the truth, Master Walter, this time, apart from wanting to see the Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps, Her Royal Highness also has a small commission. I hope Master Walter will not refuse."

Slightly nodding his head, Lei Xiao waved his hand to Gail who was at the side, temporarily removed the bands, dancers and other casual people in the banquet hall, and said with a smile.

"Oh? It's an honor for our Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps to be entrusted by Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Hearing the sound, old Walter's wrinkled old face did not show any waves, and he also responded with a faint smile.

Regarding this point, the old magician had already expected it in his heart.

Although the honorable guest in front of you was very decent, but it was obviously impossible for Her Highness the Princess to invite these mercenaries here to just eat and drink.

Immediately afterwards, old Walter couldn't help showing a puzzled look on his old face.

At present, Her Royal Highness is surrounded by a cloud of powerful people. In addition to the powerful fifth-level strongman and the two kingdom generals, there are also two fourth-level strongmen and an unknown strong woman with a big stomach.

Moreover, Her Royal Highness herself has already reached the fourth level, such strength is undoubtedly extremely terrifying.

With such a strong team, why hire them mercenaries who use people's money to fight disasters?

Immediately, Old Walter seemed to realize something, and stroking his gray beard, he added with a smile: "However, the first rule of our Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps is to never participate in power disputes between the powerful and Your Excellency, please forgive me."

After speaking, Old Walter's heart twitched again.

Just like what I thought just now, there are so many strong people around Her Royal Highness, once this member of the royal family and the unfathomable young guest in front of her are annoyed, I am afraid they will not be able to eat and walk away.

Thinking of this, the smile on old Walter's old face suddenly became a little unnatural.

"Master Walter is too worried. Her Royal Highness and I will naturally not make things difficult for others."

Seeing what the old magician was thinking at a glance, Lei Xiao continued to maintain a faint smile and said: "This mission has nothing to do with power disputes, but a very simple guardian mission."

"So, what our mercenaries are best at is guarding missions."

Hearing the sound, Old Walter secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile on his face, "I don't know what the specific task is?"

"Stationing the mountain fortress."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao frankly shook the goblet in his hand.

"War mission?!"

After listening to Lei Xiao's simple words, not only old Walter himself, but also the other two old magicians and other mercenary powerhouses beside him showed shocking expressions.

You know, apart from power disputes, war missions have the highest death rate among mercenaries, not one of them!

What's more, it's still the mountain fortress in the border area that is already in danger!

"Your Excellency, Ke Qing, you are a little too strong."

After a while, the wrinkled old magician Walter tried his best to force out an ugly smile and said, "To tell you the truth, I already know something about the current situation of the mountain fortress."

After considering his words, Old Walter continued: "At this stage, under the pressure of the eight legions of the invading Holy Night Army, the 30,000 defenders of my Cold Flame Mountain Fortress and the other two small fortresses, although He was extremely brave and did not flinch, but he had also reached a precarious point.

Judging from the previous intelligence, we only have one main army and two miscellaneous armies. Due to the delay in the arrival of reinforcements, morale is still quite low.

The other party has three main armies and five miscellaneous armies, and their morale is high.

In such a situation where the combat power of the enemy and the enemy is extremely disparate, our side actually wiped out the opponent's five legions with only 8,000 battle losses? ! What's more, the opponent's coach is still the famous Red Devils of Holy Night?

This is simply a fantasy!

All of a sudden, pairs of cryptic and complicated eyes shot towards Lei Xiao one after another.

Could this guest be crazy? How could you say such unrealistic words? Could it be to trick me into signing an employment contract?

After exchanging one with the other two old magicians again, old Walter squeezed out another forced smile on his old face and said, "Your Excellency, please stop joking..."

Having said that, Old Walter was taken aback for a moment, as if he realized something.

I saw his slightly cloudy old eyes moving, first glanced at Ariel who was not far away, who was still eating gracefully, and then glanced at the knotweed that had been hovering behind Lei Xiao.

That's why he couldn't believe it: "Your Excellency, at that time, could it be that you and Your Highness the Princess were on the frontier battlefield?!"

"Vice Captain, what are you thinking?"

Hearing this, Old Phil, a somewhat impatient fire magician beside him, blew on his gray beard, and couldn't help saying: "Even with the help of Her Royal Highness, Your Excellency Ke Qing, and Your Excellency Hu Zhang, it is impossible to achieve such a great achievement." Victory, after all, the strength of the enemy and us is too great."

"That's right, such a big victory can definitely be recorded in Leng Yan's history. I am afraid that even many famous generals in Leng Yan's history cannot achieve it."

On the other side, old Swell, the great earth magician, with his gray eyebrows almost twisted together, also echoed: "Even if a legion is separated to contain the fifth-level powerhouse, the opponent still has an overwhelming advantage." , not to mention, that old Red Devil must have a hole card in his hand that can completely change the situation of the battle."

Hearing the sound, the other mercenaries also nodded.

"What do you mean, the princess's guest is talking nonsense?"

At this time, I saw Ai Lier walking lightly and walking to Lei Xiao's side. Dai Mei frowned slightly and said, "My princess has already said just now that my guest is the plenipotentiary representative of me. In this way, Are you also questioning this princess?"

"Your Highness, the princess, is serious, and we have absolutely no intention of doing so."

Hearing the sound, the three old magicians and the mercenaries hurriedly bowed again, vetoing again and again.

For this member of the royal family from the Lengyan royal family, they naturally maintained a considerable degree of awe.

What's more, beside this Princess Leng Yan, there is also an unfathomable young guest minister and a fifth-order powerhouse.

"His Royal Highness, it's fine to leave it to your subordinates. After all, Master Walter and others don't know us very well. It is very normal to have doubts."

Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao spoke in an orderly manner.

Undoubtedly, what Lei Xiao needs to do in the face of these mercenaries who are working for money and are not familiar with them is naturally to show both kindness and force.

And it is undoubtedly the best choice to sing the red face with Ariel and sing the bad face with Ariel.

"Then leave it to you."

With a soft snort, Ariel flicked her head, which she didn't know when she put on the small ~ and walked away leisurely.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Keqing, for helping me out."

As soon as Ariel left, the three old magicians approached Lei Xiao, and thanked each other by touching their chests.

However, even though they seemed to have a low profile, the old eyes of the three clearly still had a hint of suspicion.

And the other strong mercenaries all looked distrustful. While eating the food on the table in front of them, they pricked up their ears and kept an eye on the development of the matter.

"You're welcome, a toast to all of you."

Noticing this, Lei Xiao didn't continue the topic just now, but began to sip the fine wine in the glass by himself.

After a while, Walter suddenly made a movement of covering his ears, obviously a magical communication.

Immediately afterwards, a touch of disbelief flooded his old cheeks, and he blurted out: "What? Are you telling this old man?!"
