Chapter 385: Balance Disruption (1)
After squeezing through the crowded mercenary tide in front of the Mercenary Guild's gate, everyone immediately felt much more relaxed, and the mercenaries also felt in a mood to start talking.
Everyone walked and saw five or six eleven or two-year-old boys playing happily on the street. Suddenly everyone shut up and looked at the carefree children silently.
These children are definitely not from wealthy families. You can tell by looking at their clothes and dressing, but it is because of this that makes people sigh.
After a long time, Heli sighed and said with great emotion: "The prosperous towns do have a prosperous scene. I have been to many towns. Even in some big towns, I can't see children having fun without worries. In most places, children will start to work at home when they are four or five years old."
Kelly also responded, "Yes, I remember when I was ten years old, I had already followed my father to hunt the mountain. My younger brother, who was three or four years younger than me, had already followed my mother to chop wood. The greatest pleasure in my childhood was to be able to catch a lot of prey, so that I could leave a few pieces of meat for the family."
"Haha, these days, everyone's childhood is similar, yes, leader, what was your childhood like?" A mercenary asked with a smile, and the other mercenaries' ears stood up.
They are very curious about the life experience of their team leader.
Cons smiled, raised his chin to the children and said, "When I was so old, I needed to hide in the snow for a day in such weather to hunt food. Of course, this requires good luck. If I don't have good luck, I will go hungry."
The light words made the mercenaries stunned.
Just a single sentence "Hide in the snow for a day before you can get food" can understand how difficult his life is. But this is unlikely? No matter how you look at the commander, you are from a superior, and you have to live such a miserable life in your childhood? Could it be that his elders were so abused to train the commander's combat ability? This is very likely. If you have never suffered these hardships, you would not have the ability to have such strong power now.
Thinking that the leader of the group was not a spoiled person, the five mercenaries didn't know what to do, they felt that they were much closer to the leader, unlike just now, just with complete respect.
Heli was in a good mood and couldn't help but take out his details: "Captain, this Qingxiang Town is so prosperous and peaceful. I have plans to get married. When the group settles down, I am going to move my family over. I wonder if there is any work in the group that can arrange for my family to do? I don't have to worry about hardships and dirty things, as long as I have work to do."
Heli's words immediately aroused the recognition of other mercenaries. Originally, they didn't know when they would die. In addition to spending some money, they mostly sent home. The reason why they didn't bring their family with them was because they were afraid of being implicated when the group was destroyed. But now the mercenary leader is strong and it is unlikely that the group would be destroyed. Of course, they have to bring their family with them.
Letting the family join the group means that the mercenaries have great confidence in the mercenary group will happen. Of course, Cons hopes that this will happen, so he nodded without thinking about it and said, "Of course there is no problem. Although we have few members now, we will definitely be full in the future. People always need to do things like sewing and patching. Leave these to the family of members. Everyone is relieved, and I feel at ease. When the group is in trouble, you will..."
Speaking of this, Cons suddenly grabbed a child who was about to crash into his arms and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Cons and others were talking while walking, and the group of playful children also moved here while making a fuss. When Cons spoke, several children were even more fighting. One of them didn't pay attention to someone behind him, and suddenly bumped into him, but unfortunately Cons pinched his arm.
Heli and the others thought the child was going to take the opportunity to steal money, because they had encountered such a thing as pretending to fight and coming to steal money, and even did this himself when he was young, so they didn't care at all.
Seeing the child's painful expression, Cons probably pinched him and couldn't help but persuade Cons to let these children go, while muttering to himself that the leader of the group was really stingy. He was just a child, so what's the big deal?
But something happened just as they spoke.
The child with a painful face appeared with a ferocious look on his face. At this moment, the mercenaries discovered that the child was caught by Cons, with a black needle pricked in his fingers.
Before the mercenaries could react, the child shouted in the voice of the duck that had just begun to change his voice: "Kill you!"
As the shouts appeared, his other free arm pulled out a dagger from behind his waist and stabbed Cons in the abdomen. At this moment, the other children all threw down their carefree and innocent expressions and changed into a ferocious look.
Two of them pulled out their daggers and rushed up. The rest actually took out a short crossbow from behind. Without aiming, they raised their hands and pulled the trigger to shoot at Cons.
Cons smiled slightly, and shook his hand with the assassination child like he was shaking the sheet. The child with a ferocious face immediately fell to the ground with disbelief.
Before this, Cons' other hand had already snatched the black dagger, and waved his arm a few slight waves. A few sounds, a few small crossbow arrows were chopped to the ground. Then Cons stepped forward and turned to two hand knives. The two children assassins who had just rushed over were hit by the neck and fell to the ground.
The mercenaries who had just woken up were already roaring and rushed up, knocking the three crossbowmen to the ground.
Even if these three crossbowmen fell to the ground, they still raised their heads and looked at Cons in disbelief. They never thought that at such a close distance, someone could easily shoot down three crossbow arrows of different angles!
"Damn it! Who sent you here?" Heli and others quickly tied the six children and assassins together, and shouted in anger.
They were extremely afraid of the big man who guaranteed a bright future. If he were not so wise, powerful and powerful, he would have been almost assassinated by these little kids!
When the mercenaries thought that they were sympathetic and planned to free these little kids just now, the mercenaries wanted to kill them on the spot!
Because of their anger, they ignored the people around them and tied up these little kids directly. Anyway, everyone saw their assassination and saw that they did not kill them. If anyone dared to say that they were bullying the children, they would definitely beat this person to the face of their love!
With this thought, they started interrogating the street very resolutely.
The passers-by next to him were startled by the sudden assassination, but before he could escape the matter, it ended. Seeing that it was safe, human curious nature immediately broke out and they all gathered around to watch the fun.
"Hmph! You guys bully us first! You cowards! You only dare to attack us children! I look down on you!"
The first child who assassinated Cons, although he was sitting weakly on the ground, seemed to deliberately show a child's anger and angry expression, and shouted loudly in a childish voice, answering the question that was not questioned.
Several of his companions also quickly looked like a tough guy, which made the women around him unable to help but shout something wronged, and their expressions were not friendly when they looked at Cons and the others.
It sounds like Cons and the others bullied these children first, and then the children were ready to take revenge on Cons and the others.
The mercenaries are all human beings, and it is not uncommon to turn things around. When they noticed the words and atmosphere of the crowd around them, Heli and others were eager to slap themselves in the face. They didn’t have to be so anxious to show their contributions. They were not allowed to roll and flatten them back to the base, so how could they be interrogated in public?
Seeing the performance of these children and the tendency of the people around him, Cons, who had been standing by the side with nothing serious, smiled, came to the child, and asked with a smile: "Would you be loyal to me?"
Everyone who heard this was stunned. Some people couldn't help but dig their ears. They all doubted whether this person was sick. They solicited a child seriously. If he wasn't he sick, what was that?
Heli and the others sighed in their hearts that they are worthy of being the leader of the group and are always considering recruiting talents in the group. But is this a bit too hasty? After all, they are all wild children who have not yet gone. If they recruit them in like this, they may be troublesome.
As for who sent these children, the mercenaries had already thought of it.
In Qingxiang Town, they offended only the Dragon Knights. It is said that the Dragon Knights like to use low-key tricks and send children to assassinate them. I'm afraid that only the Dragon Knights can do it.
Since you know the mastermind, these tools are irrelevant. In this way, the hatred of assassination is not on these children who are tools. Seeing that they are so good at acting, recruiting them for training, and being a substitute mercenary. When they are bigger, they will be sent to inquire about information and confusing the enemy will be very useful.
The child's eyes rolled and asked a little pitifully: "If you are loyal to you, you can let us go? If you don't bully us in the future?" The guy next to him shouted: "Don't be fooled by him! If you become his subordinate, he will do whatever he wants! And no one can come forward to help you!"
A vulgar voice suddenly came from the crowd: "Hahaha, that guy must be seeing you being very young and childish, and is going to take it back and enjoy it. Don't agree."
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused a loud laugh.
The mercenaries were really angry. Didn’t they regard themselves as rabbits?
But even if they were extremely angry, they didn't dare to do anything, because they found that everyone was looking at them with contempt, and many of the people with weapons were even more eager to try. It can be imagined that as long as they dared to scold, they would immediately arouse public anger.
Kons sighed helplessly when he noticed this, mercenaries were mercenaries, and his subordinates were subordinates. If Jia Yi and the others were here, they would probably kill people without thinking.
Cons shook his head at the child, slowly pulled out his weapons and said, "Since you don't want to, then you're the enemy."
The child assassin, who was originally secretly proud of arousing public tendencies, couldn't help but look at Cons' eyes when he heard this. At this glance, his heart suddenly became cold, because the man holding the knife in front of him had a calmness in his eyes. In other words, in the eyes of this man, killing himself was as natural as patting the snowflakes on his shoulder. He didn't care that doing so would bring about the infamy of slaughtering the child!
Some of the onlookers turned their heads and didn't dare to watch, some looked glaring, and some looked like they were about to succeed and were eager to try. However, no matter what everyone was in, no one spoke to stop them at this time.
After all, although many people look down on this behavior of bullying children, those children have nothing to do with them. Moreover, the other party’s six are powerful armed men of Kong Wu. Those with strength are too lazy to be too busy, and those without strength dare not be too busy, so everyone just watches it.
I will be killed!
This feeling made the child assassin's heart feel like it was frozen. He watched the blade fall down, but he could not move at all. At this critical moment, the child assassin suddenly shouted wildly: "Don't kill me! I am willing to be loyal to you!"
As soon as he shouted, the blade suddenly stopped beside his neck.
Feeling the cold on his neck, he realized that he had finally survived.
The first thing he did when he recovered was to gasp violently. At this time, he realized that his crotch had been wet. Fortunately, no one else knew about it except him, otherwise he would not think of being the head of his group in the future.
As for begging for mercy, he didn't feel embarrassed. Anyway, the other party must be a very strong character. Begging for mercy is to be aware of the interests and reason, but he will be more respected by his subordinates.
"Damn it! He dares to massacre children in the street! Let us wait for the people...uh..."
The strong men who had long been unable to hold back and immediately jumped out while shouting slogans when they saw Cons swing their knife, suddenly became hoarse because Cons did not kill anyone.
How is this possible? It is obvious that his knife is just using all his strength, so how can he stop just by saying that he can stop?
Cons didn't even look at the dozens of strong men who jumped out. When he shook his wrists and put his knife back into the sheath, the ropes on the child assassin's body broke.
The strong men who had already woken up and were about to take action were stunned again.
Chapter completed!
