Chapter 512
The nights in early spring are no different from winter. The city of Blion is located in the north of the kingdom. This time I practiced once. Lu Chen could only take them back to the hotel to warm the bed early in the teasing of his wives.
There is no night view without lights. Although the left eye can clearly see everything in the night, there is nothing outside the window except for the sporadic lights in other houses and the bonfires in the lighthouse. There is no way outside the window, and even the cats and dogs in the group fights can be seen. So Lu Chen, who dared not do anything because of Weiss' joining, had no choice but to find Abrego to ask about the task release situation and pass the time when he was not sleepy.
There was no one in the room. After a little thought, Lu Chen went straight to the hotel bar. After all, it was a little early; but as soon as he entered the bar, Lu Chen was shocked by the noise that was completely opposite to the coldness during the day.
"It's Mr. Lucien, I'm the manager here. Thank you very much for staying in. To express your gratitude to you, all your drinks today are free." An uncle wearing the manager's uniform, came up with two foremen, with two foremen, extremely excitedly.
"Ah? Oh, you guys go and do your business, I will find a place to sit by myself." After replying casually, Lu Chen, who was shocked, sat down at the corner of the bar counter where there were fewer people, asked a cup of hotel homemade wine, and asked a bartender if it was so lively every night.
"Of course not. Now the season is the most depressing time. There is not even one-tenth of people. Today's these are brought to us by you. This is unique to our hotel. Try it, I am the most proud of the next cup for you, right?" The manager's attitude had already explained who the person in front of him was. He gave him a wink. The bartender naturally tried his best to serve Lu Chen with all questions and answers.
"Okay." Lu Chen, who took a sip of the hotel's homemade brewing, had no feeling, nodded. Seeing Abregor, Craig, and Humphreys sitting at one end, he probably understood that so many people should be here to take on the mission, but he was not sure what the three of them had offered. In fact, when they could not recruit a crew member, the big bar was almost full, although there were many girls from his own side who were joining in the fun.
Most people's expressions were a little nervous, and then when Lu Chen was curious about their choice, the door to the bar was opened directly to the outside. Kellys walked in with a discomfort, followed by a mercenary who was breathing heavily and had a swollen face, but it was interesting that his expression looked like a winner, and he sat on the table that looked similar to him, and greeted the others.
"Next. Hurry." Kellys seemed to have not played enough and urged him in dissatisfaction.
Those who were still intact seemed to understand that she was not easy to mess with now. They looked at each other and hesitated. Then a mercenary who might be confident in his strength drank all the wine in the cup in one sip, put down the glass heavily, and stood up and walked out the door.
Obviously, this method of selecting people was determined by Kellys or girls. I counted the people who should have passed, and there were only five people in total, and their strength was at the six-star level. I also looked at the remaining mercenaries, and there may be only four people and six-star level, and two of them were well-equipped. It was not like being recruited, but more like looking at the situation.
The stronger the people who are willing to board the boat, the better. But adventure is not only a team with strong combat power. Seeing a few veterans who should have rich experience shook their heads, and with the intention of leaving, Lu Chen put a bag of gold coins on the bartender and asked the bartender to make a glass of the best wine for everyone, and told him that everyone's wine was invited tonight, so he walked towards the selected table with the glasses.
First, he took out a bottle of life water and dripped a drop into the glasses of the five people. Then Lu Chen sat down directly in their puzzled eyes. "You should have many friends you know here, right? Let me introduce it to me, as given experience, agile mind, or a special skill. Oh, I forgot to introduce it. My name is Lu Xien, who is the initiator of this adventure." After that, Lu Chen raised his glass and signaled, and took a sip of the wine.
I don’t know what was dripping into my cup, but the other party showed his identity, and such a toast made the five people embarrassed. After thinking about it, there was nothing worth it for the employer to do to him before leaving. The five people looked at each other and raised their glasses with all their might.
The two of them drank dry in one sip, each of them took a small sip, and the two of them held the wine in their mouths and did not swallow it. They were obviously preparing to find an opportunity to spit it out, and recorded each person's actions with their left eye. Lu Chen made a basic judgment on the five people.
At this time, Abreg and the other two who had already seen him came over. After saying hello, Abreg immediately said anxiously: "Master, no matter how good the conditions we offer are, we cannot recruit enough personnel."
"Haha, I saw it. By the way, what conditions have you offered? Didn't you find any of them before?" Lu Chen asked in a hurry. Although he no longer cared about money, he still didn't want to do the surrender.
"Uh~ three times the normal employment cost, the minimum employment time is one month. Considering the degree of danger, if you suffer serious injuries or death that cannot be completely cured, you will be compensated in one lump sum based on your personal strength." Some of you couldn't keep up with Lu Chen's thinking, and Abregor was stunned for a moment before answering, and at the same time, he was worried that the price he decided would be too high.
The employment costs of different strengths vary greatly. A six-star salary is 600 gold coins, five-star price is 12 gold coins, and four-star price only requires twelve gold coins. Diana River is not too long, and it is more than enough to travel back and forth for a month. If nothing unexpected happens, it is only 300 gold coins to a six-star power person. It is not too much for me now, but for mercenaries, this is a sky-high price. You must know that when I received the Red Thorn Flower, it was only 500 gold coins.
"No wonder Kellys has a temper." Lu Chen smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then before Abregor thought this was too high and admitted his mistake, he said: "Add another one, and a bottle of life water is included. The injured can ask us for treatment for free, but a contract that keeps the journey confidential. Also, relax the selection conditions to five stars, and those with special abilities and experience can relax to four stars. If the situation is dangerous, people who do not need to take action. Of course, we will not be responsible for those who do not listen to orders and those who cause our losses will be held accountable."
When Lu Chen finished speaking, all the mercenaries around him looked at the small bottle he placed on the table, and someone boldly asked directly, "Is the water of life the only water in that bottle?" Because the three people who drank the water of life the wound on their faces had basically recovered, and this immediate healing potion will always be a hot item for the mercenaries.
As for the other two, they had already seen the changes of their three deskmates, and raised their glasses to Lu Chen with awkward expressions and apologized for drinking all the wine in the cup, but it was a little too late to look at them. Although being cautious is not a bad thing, the impression they left on this occasion is not very good.
He handed over the rest to Abregor. After Kellys ravaged the man and came in alone, Lu Chen immediately pulled her out of the bar. As long as she was the one who took the lead, the other girls would not be as chaotic as before.
