Chapter 14 Preparations before departure
After getting the spells he needed, Green bought a batch of materials from the Mage Association, and then left the Mage Association, which was the "Writing Mage Association, read as the Magic Props Store".
If you want to travel through the endless desert, in addition to the spells of heat prevention, there are many other things you need to prepare, which are not afraid of wind and sand, special tents for wind and sand protection, necessary guards, etc.
Not only are there harsh environments such as storms and quicksand in the Endless Desert, but there are also many robbers and some dangerous monsters! Although Green doesn't understand why Shaqiya and the others ran to the Death Desert, it is definitely not a good idea to travel through the Endless Desert alone. Therefore, it is necessary to hire a guard.
Mosnari is known as the country of mercenaries. There are many mercenary groups of all sizes in China. Small towns like Wangsha Town are stationed in three mercenary groups.
Among them, the Wangsha Mercenary Group is a local mercenary group in Wangsha Town. It only recruits local people and works part-time in the town’s security maintenance work. It has good cooperative relationships with many local chambers of commerce. It often accepts employment from local chambers of commerce and has a good reputation in Wangsha Town.
However, what Green is looking for is not the Wangsha Mercenary Group Wangsha Mercenary Group that is responsible for the security of the town, and it is also in contact with most local chambers of commerce and has a lot of work. "Small commissions" like Green are difficult to pay attention to. Green's purpose is another small mercenary group, the Wandering Stone Mercenary Group.
The members of the Wandering Stone Mercenary Group mainly come from surrounding villages. The members' wealth is relatively innocent, the task completion rate is good, there are no outstanding achievements, and there are no bad reviews. They belong to the very low-key and stable mercenary group.
Judging from what Green found out, this mercenary group has been stationed locally for several years. The members mainly come from surrounding villages. The members' wealth is relatively innocent and the task completion rate is good.
All the mercenary groups were stationed in the military zone, not far from the Magic Tower, so Green quickly found the garrison of the stubborn stone mercenary groups.
It is a very ordinary yard, and there is a sign hanging outside an office outside the yard, indicating that this is the mercenary group's residence.
In the office, a middle-aged woman who looks like an accountant is recording something on her notebook.
Seeing Green come in, the woman raised her head and looked at Green.
A mage? It seems that there is a business coming.
Woman: "This is the Wandering Stone Mercenary Group. Is there anything wrong?"
Green: "I'm going to go through the endless desert to the Kingdom of Morning, so I need a guard."
"Go to the Kingdom of Morning?" The woman's eyes lit up and she glanced at Civina who was following Green, "Who are the members?"
Green pointed to Civina and herself: "There are two other followers besides both of us, both women."
“Are there any goods carried?”
"There is a carriage, which contains some books and alchemy tools, and nothing else."
"Books? This is really a special item." The receptionist was a little surprised. "You don't seem to be a local person with your accent?"
"Yes, I'm from North Erin."
"Can you ask about your purpose in going to the Kingdom of Morning?"
"I'll go find someone. It's not convenient to say more about the details."
...
The employer will select a mercenary group, and the mercenary group will also select an employer. It will understand some of the employer's situation and evaluate the difficulty of the task before accepting employment.
During the Q&A room, the receptionist had a rough understanding of Green's situation.
"Well... I understand. I already know the general situation. Can you tell me your name and mage level?"
"My name is Green, as you can see, a Three Ring Mage."
"With your third-ring mage's strength, ordinary robbers are probably not your opponent, and your follower is also an extraordinary warrior... Therefore, the purpose of hiring us should not be for their combat effectiveness, but to reduce trouble on the journey, right?"
"That's right." Green nodded, "There is always someone who needs to watch at night, and we are obviously not enough."
Generally, adventure teams are based on five people, which is not without reason. Because five people are indeed the best equipment, not only can they flexibly adapt to various combat environments, but also can easily arrange personnel during vigil.
"So... how about we arrange an ordinary mercenary team for you? There are six people in total, led by a bronze warrior, and the other five are also good at the Black Iron Level. They have rich travel experience and are extremely alert. They are guaranteed to give you early warnings before the danger comes, and the price is relatively cheap. In addition, if you are willing to set out tomorrow morning, you can still go with the caravan."
"Cargoyle?" Green was stunned for a moment, "What does this mean?"
"We are going to escort a caravan to the sunshine coast of the Kingdom of Morning tomorrow. I think the leader of the caravan should not mind adding an extraordinary mage to the team."
"Oh?" Green's eyes lit up, "Then... OK. Let's go tomorrow morning."
Afterwards, Green met with several mercenaries who were about to accept his employment and slightly determined their abilities and attributes.
The six mercenaries have all the attributes. Except for one of the young men who looked rather naughty, the other five were old mercenaries who had been experienced for a long time, and they were obviously very experienced.
Green was very satisfied with such a mercenary.
After discussing the remuneration and the details of the contract with the mercenary group, Green and the mercenaries signed a formal employment contract under the witness of the guard god Heim.
After the employment contract was signed, the lives of several mercenaries were completely bound to Green. During the mission, if Green died or disappeared, then several mercenaries would become wanted criminals of the Mercenary Alliance, and the wanted order would be sent to all mercenaries of Mosnarry. This wanted system and good reputation have made Mosnarry a famous mercenary employed by Mosnarry. Many chambers of commerce and nobles were happy to hire Mosnarry mercenaries.
Green: "Then we will meet at the city gate at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, and then we will set off with the people from the Milan Flower Chamber of Commerce."
After arguing for the meeting time and place, Green left the mercenary corps's headquarters.
Since she was about to set out early the next morning, Green still had a lot of work to do.
First of all, the carriage is not capable of desert travel. Green must go to the market to buy a sand lizard. It is a large sand creature with a somewhat lizard-like appearance. It has a huge body and huge soles of feet, brown skin, and eats everything. It is very strong and very drought-resistant.
An ordinary sand lizard only costs fifteen gold coins, which is not a big deal for Green at present, so Green bought four as a transportation tool without hesitation.
After the mount is solved, the food, feed for mounts, and sandproof cloaks are the essential equipment for desert travel.
When Green returned to the hotel, it was already completely dark.
However, when Green just returned to the hotel, he learned about bad news!
"What!? The carriage was thieved!?"
