Chapter 520: Chapter 525, respect
The base of the yevilk snake.
Reyerk poured a potion diluted with the elemental liquid into the mouth of the last member affected by the gray fog.
The gray fog around his body completely disappeared in just a few seconds.
“Take care of them.”
After Reyerk instructed the only five pharmacists in the mercenary group who were good at healing, he directly pushed open the door of the room and walked out.
Outside the room were the thirty-seven members of the Jefferk’s snake.
Almost half of the members of the Jefferk’s snake were affected by the gray fog. Many of these people were the close friends and relatives of the other members.
Reyerk’s gaze swept across the entire hall. He could see the nervous expressions on their faces.
Finally, under everyone’s nervous gazes, Reyerk loudly issued a new order.
“Rona! Go and buy all the drinks and food in the Mercenary Guild!”Reyerk raised his arm and said, “It’s time to celebrate!”
Without any further explanation, the members present understood Reyerk’s meaning at this moment.
The snake of Yevilk had finally gotten rid of the shackles of the gray fog! Today was indeed a day worth celebrating!
The celebration lasted for a long time, and the members who had just recovered were dragged into it. The smell of alcohol filled the entire camp after midnight.
“Leader, What’s our next plan?”
The Man with the gold-rimmed glasses sat next to Reyerk and asked.
His name was Rona, and he could be said to be the most knowledgeable person in the snake of Yevilk. There were even rumors that he was the son of a certain noble family before he became a ‘snake’.
“Joshua Arnold wants to hire us.”
Reyerk gulped down a large glass of ale. It had been a long time since he had drunk so much, but he was still able to maintain his consciousness.
“The Prince of Chaos? If he’s the giver of the potion, it’s not too much to help him complete a mission for free.”
Rona was the only member of the entire snake who did not drink. His lover was a pharmacist in the mercenary group, but unfortunately, when the mercenary group was exploring the ruins, his lover was attacked by those monsters in the camp.
He had always thought that his lover would not be able to last until Reyerk brought back the antidote today.
“He means long-term employment,”Reyerk said.
The moment he heard the word ‘long-term employment’, Rona stopped pouring wine for Reyerk.
“Leader, you should understand that ‘snake’can not become the private guard of the nobles,”Rona said.
Mercenaries were not a ‘clean’profession. In the past, some of the members of the Jefferk’s snake were thieves and killers, although there were a small number of nobles and ordinary spellcasters.
However, if the Jefferk’s snake became the private mercenaries of the nobles, then the mercenary group would cease to exist.
“Jose entrusted me with a long-term job, and I don’t completely listen to him,”Reyerk said.
“A long-term job?”
This was the first time that Rona had been entrusted with such a job for so many years. Most of the mercenary missions were to hunt some kind of magical beast or monster, or to find some rare materials.
These jobs were all one-time!
“Could it be that Joshua needs a large amount of rare materials? Is it the feathers of the Goldwing bird or the Thunder core of the Thunder Salon?”The two items listed by Rona could be sold for a lot of money in the alchemy market.
Reyerk did not answer the adviser beside him. He waved his hand at the Chaos Fiend Swordsman. The swordsman directly placed the magic-conducting machine that Joshua had given him in front of him.
“Do you know how to use this magic-conducting machine, Rona?”
“Camera? I bought a simplified version of it from the Kelia Chamber of Commerce… this magic-conducting machine can not be bought on the market.”
Rona carefully looked at the ‘camera’on the ground. After a rough adjustment, Rona injected magic power into the magic-powered machine.
“Joshua Arnold gave it to me. Rona, do you know how to make it feel like… ‘The demon is not too cold’?”
‘The demon is not too cold’was Reyek’s favorite movie, so he specifically used this as an example.
“The method of use is still very simple, but at the movie level, there seems to be something called ‘camera switching.’I don’t really understand this aspect, but if I hold it with my hand, it will make the things that are shot sway.”
A large number of white runes of order appeared on his hand, and the camera that was given the levitation spell hovered in midair.
“This way, the picture will be as stable as in the movie.”
“What are you going to do with this?”Rona asked, puzzled.
“Use this camera to record our hunting process.”Reyerk’s large hand patted his shoulder and said, “I’ll leave this task to you! It’s best to film the effect of ‘this demon is not too cold’.”
“Wait, leader… Why are we doing this?”Rona asked in confusion.
“This is the mission of that Chaos Demon!”
Suddenly, the archer appeared behind Rona, put his arm around Rona’s neck and said.
“We have a chance to be on Nolan Television in the future. We can be as famous as leader… maybe we can even…”
Before the archer could finish his sentence, Rona punched him hard in the face. The archer who was already drunk instantly fell to the ground unconscious.
“Leader, you want to record the process of US hunting monsters and then hand it over to Joshua Arnold to broadcast on Nolan television station?”Rona had already understood what this ‘hire’meant.
“Well, he won’t interfere with our actions and choices, and he will also pay us a large sum of money. It’s a very worthwhile mission.”
“It’s indeed very… worthwhile.”
Although Rona said so, the expression on his face was not happy.
“Then be happy. We might be out tomorrow…”
The Archer woke up again. Just as he was about to say something, he was dragged away by the Chaos Fiend swordsman next to him.
“Commander, have you seen the underground gladiator competition in the country of Steel?”Rona suddenly asked.
“I’ve heard of it.”
“Two contestants are locked in an iron cage to fight to the death. Only one of them can come out alive. Those well-dressed nobles are clapping happily because of this competition and pouring money into it… they are seeking this kind of excitement. I think that Chaos Fiend must also understand this point. The death battle between monsters and humans… is far more eye-catching than the death battle between humans and humans.”At this point, a bitter smile appeared on Rona’s face.
“Of course, leader. If you insist, we would be happy to give Nolan’s audience such a deathmatch performance.”
“His Highness asked us to film an educational program.”
The silent swordsman suddenly walked to Rona’s side and sat down.
Although he had already broken away from the group of Chaos Demons, he still occasionally addressed Joshua as the prince.
“Education… Program?”
“What he wants to present to the audience is not a deathmatch between US and the monsters. Instead, he wants us to teach the rookies how to hunt all kinds of monsters. In front of the Nolan audience, we are not ‘gladiators’but will be treated as ‘teachers’.”
When the swordsman said the word ‘respect’, his gaze was burning. A Chaos Demon needed to put in a lot of effort to integrate into the human society, and respect was what he desired the most.
Joshua’s appearance had changed human attitudes towards demons from hostility to friendliness, so he was happy to assist the prince.
