Chapter 567

The day after the huge fleet passed, the mercenary union became unprecedentedly lively. No matter how big or small, what is the reward, all the transportation and escort tasks were swept away; merchants, nobles and some civilians also packed their luggage. Then on the third day, the traffic of the entire city withstood the most severe congestion test since its completion. Then two days later, the most prosperous trading city along the East Sea coast of the Kingdom was like a dead city, no longer had any hawking or hilarious sounds.

In the past, because there were too many customers and almost constant fights, a few mercenaries who did not get the task sat in the seat closest to the stage with bad luck and drank the cheapest drink. Obviously, they did not receive any decent tasks before the winter. But today, they had just recovered, but they encountered such a thing, which made it difficult for them to leave like others.

However, they were a little tight on their hands, and at this moment, they were watching a beautiful lady sitting at the bar, drinking the most expensive wine and chatting with the hotel owner who had to serve the guests personally due to lack of manpower, hoping to get the last chance to not leave empty-handed. However, when the hotel's welcome doorbell was ringed, several mercenaries and a silver-gray hunting wolf who walked towards her in diameter made them sigh in their hearts, and then lowered their heads and continued to drink cheap wine.

"Thank you for your hospitality." He and the hotel owner politely said. After he poured drinks for everyone and walked away with a tactful way, the lady seemed a little anxious to ask the person in the seat beside her: "How about it, have you found out anything?"

"Yes, madam. According to the fisherman who went out to sea that day, at least half of the fleet was ships of the Island Alliance, and the rest were on the outside. And it was too chaotic at that time, and no one could see clearly whether there was a big Angus flag. Look, should you send someone to Bryon City to notify others?" The surroundings were all recruited in the past few days, and Abregor did not avoid them, but he maintained some etiquette between master and servant to Evelyn.

"Didn't Lucien say that you are your team. If you want to do something, don't ask me. I'm only responsible for flying the Flying Whale. But even if you send someone now, you won't be able to catch up, unless you are planning to let me use the Flying Whale to take you to a naval battle?" After taking a sip of wine, seeing Abregor's answer, Evelyn, who guessed his thoughts, continued: "Don't think too much. You have seen a lot of things around Lucien, are you still afraid that he will behave? And don't forget that Craig and his Leviathan also came out with us."

"Yes." A simple response, Abregor also raised his glass. He still didn't know how to get along with Evelyn, especially after learning that she was the Grand Duke who served Ulysses. He didn't have any thoughts about Lu Chen's arrangements. It was just his experience in the mercenary of Vurodes, which made him not very willing to take power alone.

The atmosphere was a bit dull, but fortunately not everyone felt pressured by Evelyn’s identity as a wife. A young man named Rebins, who had just been recruited, asked after drinking half a drink in one sip, "What should we do now? There are few decent mercenaries in this city, what else can I do if I leave behind?"

Money, interest, curiosity, fun, wanting to make a name for themselves, and for life, there is no shortage of such people everywhere. I glanced at the more than 20 mercenaries who had just joined. Evelyn could see that many of them were thinking of hunting wolves, and this was something I didn't expect before starting recruitment, at least in terms of their number. After all, for some low-level mercenaries, having a five-star hunting wolf is no less than a human being, it will allow them to gain a great increase in strength in a short period of time.

Fortunately, Lu Chen had formulated it from the beginning. The strength of four stars and the conditions for not being able to sign a contract with the wolf hunting, which screened out a large number of people with that idea, although it also made recruitment very difficult. Fortunately, he had already asked the Mercenary Guild for help in the name of Lu Chen, and the recruitment information was sent to the entire kingdom. Now he had to wait patiently. As for why the branch president would help enthusiastically after confirming Lu Chen's identity, Evelyn ignored it and was just proud of having this little lover.

"There are many things that can be done, such as helping the defenders fight the enemy first, and even if they fail to become a wolf knight, they will be left as a member of other legions. You must know that the wolf knight is just our first idea." Evelyn said deliberately.

Based on what Abregor said just now, everyone here has changed their faces, because as long as they are not too stupid, they can hear that the so-called enemy is Angus, the former first heir of the Kingdom. At the same time, they are closer to their fiefdom, and they also know the strength of some big princes, which is definitely not something that Canterrera, a trade city, can not resist, let alone a local security army stationed here.

In addition to the music that was playing dutifully on the side of the stage, the already quiet tavern suddenly became quieter. After the hopeless mercenaries who had watched the last sip of cheap drinks, they also walked out in despair, preparing to go to other cities to try their luck after a night's sleep.

Then another morning, Abregor received several applications for withdrawal from the group...

———

At the same time, on the largest oval island in the north of the Island Alliance, a large number of residents were fleeing their homes to the east, because a sea beast that was several times larger than the mansion where their lord lived was raging on the island. The only thing that is thankful is that it does not have the hobby of cannibalism, but is only slowly destroying the island's buildings, as if it wants to build a nest in this place.

The lord who had already fled to the warship looked at the territory he had lived in for a long time with mixed joys and sorrows. When he was thinking that he could finally get rid of this broken territory with only land and no resources, he was also calculating how much it would take to hire someone to steal the cub of this sea beast. Although it was a bit early now, generally speaking, there was only one reason why such a huge sea beast occupied the island, that is, it was about to produce.

Just as the lord was wondering whether his family could marry the royal family of the Island Alliance, Craig was controlling the army of ghouls and following Leviathan to capture the spies left on the island. As the undead with a strong sense of military consciousness in the soul fire, he was unwilling to attack ordinary people who had no resistance, but those who were ordered to hide were not within his norms and could just become a relatively good slave.
