Chapter 33 Break
Strictly speaking, there are two employment relationships between caravans and adventurers. In most cases, it is ordinary employment. When the value of the materials transported is not very high, the caravans generally choose to go forward with the same adventurers instead of deliberately spending money to hire adventurers. In this case, although the nominal relationship between caravans and adventurers is also a relationship between employment and employment, due to the low risk, caravans often only give adventurers very little rewards.
In addition to ordinary employment, when the caravan needs to transport some more expensive materials, they often spend a lot of money to hire some adventurers with stronger abilities to accompany them. As for the remuneration, the caravan usually goes to the adventurer guild to evaluate the price of the materials they need to transport, and then the adventurer guild provides them with a list of adventurers who are willing to help the caravan transport materials. The caravan selects the members they need based on the list, and then pays the adventurer based on the ability of the adventurer and the total value of the materials they transport.
Wu Song was a half-way trainer. He did not join forces with the Kadomo Caravan through the Adventurers Association. Therefore, the Kadomo Caravan did not sign a magic contract with Wu Song at the beginning. However, when Lina discovered Wu Song's value, the relationship between Wu Song and the caravan changed. He turned into the main road-exploring thief of the caravan, and the leader Lina also gave Wu Song a valuable commission. However... After learning about some things from Pearson, Wu Song felt that the commission offered by Lina was too small compared to the total value of the materials he transported!
"This unlucky caravan is really turtle. He transports such an important material as Magic Star Iron and has set his sights on a gang of robbers of the size of the Black Songshan Bandits, but he only offered a commission of 300 crystal coins to his buddies. He wanted to buy my life for 300 crystal coins? Fuck him! There is no door!" The more Wu Song thought about it, the more angry he felt. If it weren't for the second-level body multiplication assistance this time, he might have been in the battle with Pearson.
Fang said, and if he hadn't used the soul-calling technique on Pearson on a whim, he would have been likely to have caused big trouble in the battle between the caravan and the Black Songshan bandits in the second half of the night. He didn't know if Domi, the person in charge, found in the Mir Town Store, knew what the Kadomo caravan was transporting, but at least one thing Wu Song could be sure of, that is, the leader Lina didn't tell the truth when he signed the magic contract with him.
"Stupid girl! I will soon let you know what the price you need to fool me!" Wu Song searched all the valuable things on Pearson, then cursed fiercely, and then sprinkled strong corpse powder on the corpse and the blood around him (an alchemy potion that can quickly rot the corpse until it dissipates).
Under the influence of the rotten corpse powder, Pearson's body quickly disappeared. Wu Song carefully dealt with the scene. He did not want the caravan behind him to find out that Pearson had evaporated on earth too early. Now he is only halfway through the journey, and there are still two hours before dark. If he learns that he cannot pass the canyon before dark, the caravan will likely choose to turn back and spend the night in the wilderness south of the Frank Canyon. For Wu Song, who is planning to fish in troubled waters, letting the caravan spend the night in the complex terrain of the jungle is obviously more conducive to his action.
After getting rid of Pearson, Wu Song did not rush back to contact the caravan, but worked harder to take on the workload of him and Pearson. If he wanted to get the magic star iron, he had to completely cut off the caravan's retreat. Only by letting the caravan collided with the Black Song bandits in the canyon with complex terrain could he have the skills to start and ensure that he had a chance to escape after taking action. Therefore, Wu Song chose to continue moving forward and chose to lead the caravan to a place where he could doom.
In the caravan, the thief team responsible for the exploration of the way is a team with strong independence. In the West Frank Canyon, the thiefs are not only responsible for the exploration, but also remove the traps of the mechanism. They rely on the advantage of being invisible. During this period, if they do not encounter any irresistible factors, in order to ensure the speed, the thief will generally not report the process and the large troops in the back defense frequently. In most cases, the caravans send hunters with strong perception and survivability in the wild to place the thief.
Between the large army, these hunters play a role in taking over. If the thief encounters any danger, as long as they send a help signal, the hunters will rush over to provide assistance as soon as possible. If the thief encounters any accident, the hunters will promptly notify the caravan behind them to stop, thereby preventing the entire caravan from falling into danger. This means that as long as Wu Song can ensure the speed of advance, the caravan behind will basically not notice the strangeness in the thief team in front.
The next hour was a difficult journey for Wu Song. Although Wu Song had good abilities in perception and had auxiliary devices to help him remove the traps, Wu Song was so tired that he almost vomited blood when he did a few people alone. So an hour later, when he dragged his tired body to meet the hunters behind him, Wu Song almost didn't have to pretend, and achieved the effect he wanted.
"Thieves, what happened?" When Wu Song ran back, several hunters were carefully checking every inch of land the caravan was about to pass. Seeing Wu Song rushing toward, the old hunter who led the team roared at the front, and the teammates behind him were all ready to prepare for the battle.
"Then...that guy wants to kill me!" Wu Song ran to the hunters and pointed behind him, pointing at him.
"Who wants to kill you?" The old hunter raised his hand while asking, and a flare shot towards the place where Wu Song came. The next second, a dazzling white light flashed in the forest, and a flux was illuminated by more than ten meters around him. Several hunters faced the strong light, staring at the bright spot without blinking, but unfortunately there was nothing in the forest.
"It's Pearson!" Wu Song gasped, his face full of anger and roared at the old hunter with a puzzled look on his face, "Damn it, what kind of shit teammates are you matching me? This is the first time I have met a teammate who is shooting a cold arrow behind me! I want to detect traps, guard against mutant beasts and mole men, and now I have to beware of my teammates shooting a cold arrow in the back! I really can't do this job!"
