[The short journey is about to begin. What will Salin encounter there in Qinyin Empire? You can tell by voting...]

Aini is free, but if he wants to leave, he must have the family members coming. He has a mission to collect intelligence in the town. This may be the lowest-level mission of the family, but he also needs to put it here alone.

There are four days left to the end of the month, and Salin and others also make some preparations. The road from the Principality of Phoenix to the Qinin Empire is not peaceful, and there are thieves in the wasteland.

First of all, we need to purchase horses. Rich adventurers will prepare three horses, two transfers, and one carrying goods. It would be nice for ordinary mercenaries to have one horse, and they would not be willing to throw it away. Aini bought eight horses and was fostered outside.

Adventurers are very knowledgeable to choose horses. First of all, they cannot choose standard military horses from the empire. Those types of horses have high requirements for fodder, and eating weeds will cause diarrhea. They should choose hors produced near the Wusu River in the central part of the mainland. Although they don’t run fast, they are not afraid of the cold and heat, and can survive whatever they eat. The endurance is much higher than that of military horses that are good at charging, and can also be used to pull carts when needed.

Then I had to prepare my carry-on luggage. Salin and others had already thrown the tent in the chaotic swamp. Salin's metal kettle was given to Canghong, and Shika's water bag was leaked and they all had to be repurchased.

In terms of weapons and armor, Salin is a magician. He doesn't need it. He has no hole in his magic robe. Sika's leather armor is of very good quality, and after a few battles, it's not even worn. This is something worth thousands of gold coins.

However, when Aini saw the trademark of Sika's leather armor, he made a very obvious expression of silence. Sika's leather armor was produced by the Jungle Weapons Store, and the background was the Williams family of the Qinin Empire. The Williams family and the Clyde family are competitors, especially in weapon management, the two have been competing for hundreds of years.

Aini chose a glove for Salin and put it on Salin's left hand so that his hands should not look so scary. This glove is also a magic prop, snow-white and made entirely by alchemy. The material is just ordinary snow silk. The snow silkworm is a first-level monster and can be raised in large quantities. Silk is not expensive, and it is expensive in handmade.

Wearing this kind of gloves does not affect the magician's spell cast at all, and it also has an amplification effect on water-based magic. Snow silk is also a material for making soft armor, which is extremely tough. Magicians can effectively protect their precious hands when wearing this kind of gloves. Some thieves who are good at using daggers even dye this glove black instead of leather guards.

Aini also replaced the skin for Shika. The skin given by the Jungle Weapons Store has no space for division. If everything is stuffed in, it will be a mess.

After about two days of preparation, a suitable mercenary group came to the door. This was an eight-person mercenary group. After directly taking on the mission in the guild, I found Aini's shop.

Seeing that Eni frowned before he said a word, the mercenary in charge laughed cheerfully, pointed to his badge, and said to Eni: "We are a level 5 mercenary group, but we are too lazy to recruit people."

This mercenary is tall, with a handsome appearance, black hair, very short cut, and a standard Qin Yin face. He is wearing heavy armor and does not look bloated. There are many holes in the dark blue cloak, and the armor is polished cleanly.

"I am France, the leader of the Nut Mercenary Corps."

Franmine took off her gloves, reached out her hand, and shook hard with Enni.

"Nut Mercenary Group? Is it the one who killed the Squirrel Thieves Group?" Enni's face looked much better. He originally planned to hire more people to escort him and Sara back to Qin Yin. They had too much wealth and had to hire a reputable mercenary group. The reputation of the Nut Mercenary Group was cleaner than the water of repair, and its strength was considered to be of medium strength.

The Squirrel Thieves Group is a low-ranking but famous thieves group. This thieves group is not large in number, but it has been on the wanted list for more than 120 years. Since its establishment, this thieves group has been doing big and small cases, extremely cunning and never missed.

Legend has it that there are high-level magicians and even despicable people in the squirrel mercenary group.

Two years ago, a newly registered mercenary group took over the task of destroying the squirrel thieves group. This mercenary group was Nut. At that time, the mercenary world thought it was a joke. Not only from the name, Nut was originally for squirrels to eat, and the number of mercenary group was too small, with only eight people.

At that time, the Nut Mercenary Group paid a deposit of 10,000 gold coins to take on this task. If the task was not completed within the specified period, the 10,000 gold coins would be ruined.

Half a year later, all the squirrels were destroyed, and the Nut Mercenary Group became a level 5 mercenary group, becoming a legend that inspired countless low-level mercenary groups. The title of Nut was fixed since then and was no longer the temporary number of an unknown mercenary group.

Salin registered a first-level mercenary group with only one number. Even if he took a name, it would not be recognized by the mercenary world. If there is a level 4 or above mercenary group that wants to use this name, Salin's mercenary group must give up.

Only a mercenary group with names is a real mercenary.

This is an unwritten rule in the mercenary world. Therefore, the one who really makes money is always high-level mercenary groups. The lower the mercenary groups, the poorer they are, and some of them are even reduced to bandits.

Aini's shop cannot entertain so many people. First, they return to the hotel where they stayed with the Nut Mercenary Group. Then the two sides discussed the specific employment matters. Although the Nut Mercenary Group took over the task, without Aini's confirmation, others could still continue to take over the task.

"It's the four of us who sent us to Kron County, with a level 5 mission, including food and accommodation, and a commission of 500 gold coins."

"Kron County is too far away, only 500 gold coins, so the senior mercenary group is not willing to take much, right?" Franmingo was a little dissatisfied. The journey of Kron County is long, and even if there are horses, it will take more than three months to walk. After all, it is only 100 gold coins per month. It is better to go to the Chaos Swamp to fight the Warcraft and take action on the Magic Core to make money.

Moreover, the punishment for failure of level 5 missions is very heavy. Franmine also has to pay a large deposit in the guild. If it is a low-level mercenary group, the 500 gold coins task is enough to make everyone lose their heads, but Nut doesn't care about this little money.

"Arriving in Dakron County, I'll give you another piece of golden mica." Enni said confidently.

Franmingo was indeed moved. He asked cautiously: "How big is it?"

Mica golden is not of great significance to magicians, but for swordsmen, it is an excellent material for making weapons. This thing is rare. If you get it by a magician, the chance of using it is also very high. It is generally difficult for a swordsman to get it.

"So big." Aini measured it for a moment and said, "It can add all the magic patterns to the heavy sword."

Franmingo thought for a while, looked at his companion behind him, and asked cautiously: "Can I want two? I don't want 500 gold coins anymore, we can pay you another 500 gold coins."

Enni glanced at Salin, and Salin nodded slightly. He proposed Mica's opinion. For this thing, the mercenaries would be very attentive. Even if someone paid a higher price, they would not betray the employer. However, Enni did not have Mica on hand, so he had to ask for Sally's opinion.

"Okay, we will set out at the beginning of the month, and I will pay for your expenses in the past two days."

Franmingo laughed and said, "No, are you all ready to pack yourself? Do you need our help?"

Seeing that he was generous, Eni also smiled and said, "It's ready, and there are eight horses, all of them are Hetao ponies."

Salin didn't say anything, his eyes fell on a man from the Nut Mercenary Group, wearing a white magic robe, the magician who passed by him in front of the tavern.

It is not surprising that a level 5 mercenary group has a magician, but what is strange is that this is just a level 2 wizard. And Salin was thinking, this is a coincidence...

The magician was also looking at Salin. He was also very surprised because when the leader asked about Mica about Jin, Aini was asking for Salin's opinion. Could this first-level magician be the main target of being escorted?

After looking at each other for a long time, the atmosphere was a little awkward. Fortunately, the magician's temper was not strange, so he took the initiative to say to Salin: "We're meeting again, Hello, I'm Walnut."

"Sarin." Salin replied, with a general judgment in his heart. This is a civilian mage with a humble origin. Because the mage has no nickname, Walnut is his real name. This mage may not even have a surname. With such a humble origin, he actually reached the level of a second-level magician at such a young age, and he can be regarded as a genius.

Franmingo said: "When the team sets off, let's introduce each other. Mr. Enni, can we leave for a day? I'm going to the forest before leaving."

Aini nodded and agreed: "No problem, see you early in the month."

Salin also put away the doubts in his heart. The magician could not have been targeted by him. He escaped from the chaotic swamp, and it was impossible for the people here to know in advance that what happened in the chaotic swamp could not have been reported. It was because he had too much doubt. If Eni wanted to find an outsider to plot against him, he would not have found someone who had met him.

The Clyde family's convoy arrived on time. Aini and his family handed over for a while, then moved to the Nut Mercenary Corps' hotel with Salin and others, and brought the foster horses over.

Next to the hotel is a restaurant, and the two deals are in the same family. We will set off tomorrow. Everyone gets together for a meal and get familiar with their own situation first.

I asked for a single room and 12 people sat around a large table. This layout was only available in the mercenary shop.

However, the mercenaries of the Qinin Empire seemed much quieter than the Skochenya. Although the people of the Nut Mercenary Group were still wearing soft armor and did not leave their weapons. They looked like they were fighting at any time, but they did not scream. The two sides were talking in a relatively low tone.

Salin happened to be sitting next to the magician, and the two looked at each other and smiled. Salin now knew that he was nervous. There were many magicians in the Qinyin Empire, so it was not surprising that he encountered several of them.

"My name is Salin."

"I remember. Are you from the Qinyin Empire?"

"No, I'm from Skochenya."
