This news that could shake the continent was that the Lucerne had Dragon Crystals for sale.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately attracted the attention of all the races on the continent. Even Rhine sent a letter asking them if it was true or false, advising them to be more cautious. But what he got was Thunder's decisive rejection, and the normal progress of the auction.

Of course, the anger of the dragon race was also accompanied by this.

In all of history, almost no Dragon-slaying Warrior had a good ending, even if they were the kings of an empire. Not only were all the great dragon-slaying people torn to pieces by the anger of the dragon race, even the families they belonged to, and the countries backing them, suffered greatly as well.

But this time, Thunder's actions was simply a challenge to the dignity of the entire dragon race.

This was also the reason why it had caused such a sensation.

There was still a month before the Dragon Crystal auction. There was still enough time to brew and stir up a commotion. He believed that it would definitely be a grand occasion then. Even if it couldn't compare to the Jade Night's auction, it still wasn't far off.

At this time, the Lucerne had already begun to show signs of prosperity.

A Beamon Hippopotamus wearing heavy armor was wandering in the streets of the Lucerne with a seemingly human archer who was entering the human world for the first time. He was talking with his six comrades who looked like Mercenary.

"Heavens, is this really Lucerne?"

A Mercenary who was dressed as a swordsman looked around at his surroundings and sighed with heartfelt emotion, "Three years ago, I took over an escort to come to Lucerne, but at that time, I was definitely not as prosperous as I am now."

An elderly Magician holding a wand muttered: "Not only was the war unable to destroy the Lucerne, it instead gave it endless life force."

The Hippopotamus also sighed, "This is really too unimaginable. It was originally just a slightly stronger and more prosperous city in the Duchy of Milan, but I never thought that it would reach such a flourishing state in such a short amount of time. I'm afraid that in less than a year, this place will surpass the Milan Royal Capital and become the most dazzling pearl of the Sunset Plains. "

A Beamon Fox priest who was dressed extravagantly said, "What I am most concerned about is whether or not there are any Magic Items for sale here. If there is, not only will I be able to complete the mission given to me by the Lord, but I can also take advantage of this opportunity to earn some money. "

The Hippopotamus didn't seem to like the way the Fox's priests acted, saying, "Lord Priest, although I was ordered to protect Sir Priest's safe passage to Lucerne, our tribe does not belong to the jurisdiction of the Mongol Empire. We are just the Behemoths of the Sunset Plains, we have already completed our escort mission, we do not have any obligation to play that kind of scout and money game with you."

Yes, Hippopotamus, who had been in the human world for nearly ten years, could tell that this honorable priest from the Mongol Empire was harboring malicious intentions. In order to avoid offending the Thunder that even the dragon race dared to disobey, the Hippopotamus cleverly chose to avoid suspicion.

After the other Mercenary s received Hippopotamus's reminder, they came to their senses and quickly left this tactful and esteemed Fox Priest.

Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to see how terrifying the power of lightning was. They would be able to predict how vast the space the young Thunder would have to develop. Everyone knew how to choose if they offended such a power for a sacrifice they had just met.

The noble Fox Priest did not expect such a situation, but he was proud of herself and left the team, heading straight for the Adventurer Restaurant. Maybe he still refused to give up, and wanted to find out the relevant information from Mercenary, who had the most information, and hire some Mercenary to protect him.

The Hippopotamus did not pay any attention to him, not even a little bit of guilt.

A human archer who had some doubts asked, "Hippo Boss, isn't the Sacrifice very important in Beamon's heart? Why are you guys treating a noble Battle Sacrifice like this?"

The Hippopotamus replied, "There are some things that cannot be said openly. In any case, this place might be the base for our future development. Naturally, we cannot offend a super noble lord who is about to become a powerful empire for the sake of an outsider. "

The Centaur archer asked: "Uncle Hippo, I heard that this noble lord is a Saints's Ka Tu. Even the two Sword Saint's Sword Saint s were unable to do anything to him, and he even killed a noble Spaceman."

Hippopotamus nodded and replied, "That's right, Lucerne is Sage Card Disciple's territory."

The old magician said, "You made the right choice. The old man had been to so many places, but this was the first time he saw a lord treating his soldiers so well. If you guys choose to rely on this lord, it would be the best choice, but there are too many brave warriors who want to rely on him, I'm afraid you guys won't have the advantage. "

Hippopotamus respectfully asked for guidance: "Master, please answer our doubts! We only came here because we heard the stories of the Lucerne and their deeds, so we are not very familiar with the specific circumstances of the Sunset City. "

old magician was very satisfied with the title of "Master".

Although he was still just a Magician of the fourth step, their rarity and powerful attacks had destined them to exceed their usual status and treatment. old magician, who had trained in Master Level his entire life, was still unable to reach the upper levels due to his commoner's background and not very outstanding talent in magic. However, he was quite satisfied with the appearance of this title. At least he could pass it to her.

Seeing everyone's focused gaze, old magician organized his thoughts and said: "After the ambush from Holy See and the rebellion from dragon race, the Sunset City is now completely sealed off, refusing to have any trade dealings with the outside world and becoming an independent natural territory. However, their deeds and systems have still been leaked out by the merchants who previously traded with them. "

After a pause, old magician continued, "Their warriors receive very high treatment. For example, an elite Beamon warrior like the hippopotamus, who could get at least a hundred gold coins a month and retire after serving for their entire life, would be in charge of your retirement. If you die fighting for them, your family would not only get a pension that would be ten times better than any other empire's, they would even take care of your family for you and teach your son well. "

The eyes of many of the warriors lit up when they heard this.

Warriors in this world, especially those who did not belong to any major power, those who were independent and belonged to the Mercenary, would be in a rather miserable situation in their later years. Losing their combat ability, many of them were poor at accumulating money and squandering it recklessly. In the end, they had to drag their medicine jars like bodies to do some menial work and toil away. Some of them even lived on the streets, some even begging for a living.

As for those warriors who had died in battle, their pensions were simply not enough to sustain their families until the next generation, and there were often a lot of unforeseen events, such as the ruthless wives taking away all their finances and abandoning their sons and daughters, or wives being forced onto the path of corruption, but most of them were wives shouldering the burden of raising their families and doing the hard work that men should do.

It could be said that the treatment of warriors in Sunset City was something that all warriors in the entire continent dreamed of.

The old magician saw that everyone seemed to be very excited, and added on: "I've said it before, there will definitely be a lot of people who want to help the Sage Card Disciple. As you can see, the Ox-head Patrol in the Lucerne is one of the Beamon warrior's followers. It is said that there are many miserable Behemoths in the Sunset Plains that wish to follow the Sage Card Disciple, and there are even many brave warriors who wish to serve them, but the Sage Card Disciple is very loyal to their followers, and does not accept them as they please. Thus, many people have no choice but to start at the bottom level, in order to one day become a citizen of the Sunset City. "

After going through the painstaking efforts of Thunderclap, Great Witch and the High Priest, they successfully planned the Sunset City to be a prosperous, stable and peaceful paradise, where many people entrusted their resources to. On the other hand, Lucerne had functions that were separated out from the Sunset City, such as business, culture, communication and so on. He had a little bit of being a vassal of the Sunset City.

The Centaur archer was still quite naive and said: "We know where the Sunset City is, can't we just head over there?"

old magician laughed: "If everyone thought like that, then Sunset City would have already been full. After going through the matters of the Church of Light and the dragon race, the Sunset City had been completely closed off, and did not accept any more business dealings, so everything was transferred to the Lucerne. If you all want to go over, I reckon that before you all could even enter Sunset Forest's territory, you would have been discovered by the endless amount of spies in the forest and then driven out. "

"Thank you for knowing. The hippopotamus knows what to do now."

Hippopotamus did indeed want to find a place to entrust himself. It was not only for the sake of his aging self, but also for the sake of his tribe and the clansmen who were struggling in Sunset Plains to find a place to cultivate and recuperate.

The swordsman from before suddenly pointed at a Wandering Poet who was dressed poorly, but gave off a strange aura, and asked: "Strange, since when did Wandering Poet become so noble, it is worthy of the adventurer bar's manager to personally send him out."

Everyone turned around and saw the manager of the Adventurer Restaurant personally send a Wandering Poet out.

The old magician pondered for a moment, then walked forward, the human archer followed closely behind him, the remaining people also followed after him.

"As expected, it's very interesting. I never thought that there would be so many Behemoths living in the Sunset Plains. Moreover, there are even signs of many races living together. The Doran tribe is the strongest tribe in the Sunset Plains, the Behemoth Tribe. With the rare hippopotamus as the leader, paired with the Centaur long-ranged attacks, as well as the number of Orcs and Cynocephali, no wonder it could become a thorny task in the Adventurer Restaurant. It seems like my mission this time will not be as easy as I thought. "

Thunder who was disguised as Wandering Poet muttered as she walked out of the city.

The reason he had disguised himself as Wandering Poet was because that damned blood spirit had actually fallen into the hands of an A Class Mercenary group of unknown origins.

The Mercenary group, especially the [A] class Mercenary group, were all open to the public. The information was very transparent, otherwise, how would they obtain the trust of the clients, and how would they be able to obtain a large number of employment tasks? However, the [A] Class Mercenary Group would be the opposite of the usual group of people. Their information was extremely secretive and they would never reveal their specific situation, and the mission they accepted was also a special and thorny one. It could even be said that they were a weirdo in the Mercenary world.

They were no exception, but no matter if it was them or the dark spirit, neither of them were able to detect anything regarding this mysterious group of Mercenary, they only knew that they had been stuck in the Miracle City for a long time and that they normally did not accept outsiders. Even if they needed to, they only wanted warriors who were C Class or higher, and who were also at an advanced level.

Because of this, Lei Lei had no choice but to find a reliable identity to register in Mercenary, to rely on to handle the difficult adventure mission, in order to urgently raise the level of Mercenary.

This was what happened.

"Poet, I wonder why you want to go to our tribe?"

Hippopotamus brought everyone over.
