However, Thunder's heart didn't waver in the slightest, the corner of his mouth slightly curled up. This was because he felt that not far in front of him, there was an aura that seemed to be asleep, but it also seemed to be able to instantly erupt with 120% of his strength. This aura was very similar to Lai Yinsi's earlier, it could be said to be of the same origin, it was just that this aura was not as strong as Lai Yinsi's, it was just that it was very calm.

Thunder seemed to be talking to himself, but it also seemed like he was reminding the enemy. He muttered to himself, "A person in charge of the base has cultivation in the Eighth Order, I'm afraid that you guys are even stronger than the rumours of the outside world. Your powers might even be on par with an A or S grade Mercenary with hundreds of years of history. "

"Welcome to Aegean Mercenary Group!"

A leopard elder who was just sitting on a soft rattan wood chair and squinting his eyes stood up out of nowhere, respectfully welcoming the arrival of Lei.

Although the leopard elder looked like a normal leopard elder and looked even older than the Sunset City, the reaction speed and mobility he displayed just now was something that even the experts of the same level would not be able to match up to.

Thunder slowly walked to leopard elder, sizing up this old priest. He knew that this old spy was definitely not as old as he had imagined. It was only because of his years of life and death training and mental exhaustion, he had lost a large amount of his life force and accelerated his aging process. However, with the ability of this old priest, even the Great Swordmaster s and Great jockey s might hate his subordinates.

It had to be said that this Aegean Mercenary Group was truly not simple, his background was definitely not something that a newly established Mercenary team could accomplish.

Since the other party was not a simple person, then Thunder would go straight to the point, and asked: "What are the conditions to join the Aegean Mercenary Group?"

The leopard elder replied indifferently: "As long as you complete the mission given by our regiment, we will complete it. Of course, our legion does not welcome people with multiple identities, such as from Mercenary Guild, Mage's Guild, a certain country, or an organization. "

"Understood."

How could Thunder not understand?

This was just like a football club in the real world. A player in service could not simultaneously play in two different clubs, and the difference was the same for two different clubs. This was the most basic common sense of the football league.

Between countries and countries, between aristocrats, between guilds, and between organizations, it was enough to create a novel. Hence, Thunder didn't have much interest in this, he just wanted a mask that could conceal his true identity.

"I don't like women. I hope it can be done once and for all."

Thunder still had the attitude of an 'expert', his calm tone carrying a strong sense of confidence.

The leopard elder smiled slightly and said, "I ask that you tell me your name, background, and specialties. If possible, please explain to me the reason why you chose our regiment. "

Thunder said the information he had prepared a long time ago, "Meng Tela, you are from Holy Roman Empire and are used to using swords, but I prefer to use fists and blades now. As for the reason for choosing Aegean Mercenary Group, it's also very simple. It's because you two are Behemoths, and also have conflicts with Mage's Guild. "

Hearing Thunder's words, leopard elder nodded his head, because Thunder's words matched the information he had.

leopard elder said: "Meng Tela, a genius aristocrat from a small city to the west of Holy Roman Empire. Unfortunately, she was chased by dark group for offending a Great Magister, and her whereabouts were unknown three years ago. At that time, you had just advanced into the Master Level."

Seeing this, leopard elder looked at Thunder earnestly, "Three years after the mysterious disappearance, you actually cultivated to such an extent. It looks like your three years of escaping have not been easy, but you've managed to survive. Furthermore, you have a very strong aura of the tauren on you. It seems that you once stayed in the Ox-Head Tribe for a period of time. "

After pausing for a moment, the leopard elder continued with his own analysis, "Your weapon is obviously a high grade goods. If the three negative effects could be completely used by a Great Swordmaster like you, perhaps even ordinary peak would not be able to do anything to you. However, I remember that those super nobles and Merchant have already bought all these weapons. For you to be able to obtain this magic equipment, it can be seen that your background is not simple. "

Thunder replied lightly, "If not for the Beamon tauren, I'm afraid that a figure like Meng Tela would not be in this world for a long time, and the current me would not be either. As for the origin of this high-grade magic tool, we'll just directly snatch it away. Is there really a need to go through all that trouble? "

The leopard elder nodded in understanding. He finally understood what Thunder meant when he said "because you are Behemoths". Furthermore, the phrase "directly snatch it" was even more so to the appetite of leopard elder. One must know that leopard elder was also a cruel Wasteland bandit when he was young, and he followed the law of the jungle.

Although leopard elder still didn't know where Thunder had heard about the enmity between Aegean Mercenary Group and Mage's Guild, but this little doubt was not worth his time to think about. If the Aegean Mercenary Group could get this human aristocracy with limitless potential to join, it would definitely not be a small benefit.

"Good, very good!"

leopard elder nodded his head in satisfaction, passing the information in his hands to Thunder, and said: "If you can complete this mission, I will give you the qualifications to pass. Even though for a Great Swordmaster like you, no matter where you go, you will always be warmly welcomed. There is no need to accept our challenge here. However, I believe you have heard quite a bit about the history and reputation of our Aegean Mercenary Group. I believe you will understand that these troublesome procedures and tests are all necessary. "

Of course Thunder would understand, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen Aegean Mercenary Group.

To leopard elder's words, Thunder replied with a smile and asked: "When does the mission start? Where do I gather them? "

leopard elder replied, "Very soon, someone will immediately notify you. If you do not mind how dilapidated this place is, please rest here for the night. "

"Alright."

Thunder, on the other hand, was a bachelor. He directly chose a spot and sat down, entering a meditative state.

leopard elder was ecstatic. After smiling, he continued his slumber and did not feel awkward at all when a stranger appeared beside him.

The autumn of Sunset Forest was golden, not just because of the setting sun or the withered vines and old trees, it was also not as harsh, heartless and delicate as people thought, but it was more like the singing of gold ripening and harvesting. If winter is cold, spring is hope, summer is passion, then autumn is full of granules, harvest and laughter.

Of course, the fall in the north was also cold. That little bit of cold made the autumn less enthusiastic, and a few more points of abundant happiness. However, within this happiness was a deep sense of loneliness.

Maybe the winter will be cold this year.

Thunder raised his head slightly against the gusts of cold wind, then lowered his head again, allowing winter's footsteps to wash over him. However, the thunder was still a bit careless. With a cracking sound, it meant that he accidentally tripped and broke a fragile tree root, causing him to stagger a little.

"Be careful, we have entered the Goblin's territory."

Deputy Head who was already an [A] class Mercenary tightly knitted his eyebrows as he looked at Thunder, as if he was a little bothered by Thunder's carelessness.

Aegean Mercenary Group did not change his pace because the weather had turned cold, nor did he slow down even a bit because he was in a strange environment. Their steps were still so certain, so heavy, without the slightest trace of relaxation. Step by step, they moved towards their destination.

This was a hilly region on the northern coast of Sunset Forest. The purpose of this time was to explore a tribe of Goblins that had suddenly lost contact with each other.

To be honest, it would be a lie to say that there were no problems if one of the Deputy Head s from a lowly Gnome tribe came over. However, as a rookie, and one that was in the testing phase, Thunderclap restrained his curiosity and followed the team without asking any unnecessary questions.

"Boss, let's take a break."

An Anwei Great Shaman who was equivalent to a Great Magister finally could not hold back and begged.

Although the Anweidshaman was a Behemoth with a strong body, a Sacrificial Master was still a Sacrificial Master. This kind of arduous trek through the forest was an extremely difficult test for any Mage. The fact that this Deer Tribe priest had been able to hold on up till now was already considered precious.

"Alright, get some rest!"

Deputy Head knew that a fatigued team was not suitable for battle. If they lacked the powerful assistance from the priest, their danger rate would increase greatly this time. After weighing the pros and cons, Deputy Head still felt that his partner was the most important.

Just as everyone sat down, a cow-headed warrior came over and asked Thunder: "Meng Tela, why were you so careless earlier? With your strength, you shouldn't make such a low level mistake. "

Ever since this cow-headed warrior who had the fighting strength of master level found out about the relationship between Thunder and Beamon tauren, he had always talked to Thunder about it. Even though Thunder had a rather gloomy personality, this could not stop him from having a good impression of Thunder.

Thunder replied, "I sense an ice-cold aura monitoring us."

Thunderclap's words were simple, but they aroused everyone's vigilance.

Deputy Head was naturally very nervous and immediately asked: "Meng Tela, are you sure you're not seeing things?"

Thunder nodded his head in affirmation.

Deputy Head immediately shot a glance at Panther Assassin beside him. Panther Assassin entered the forest without a second word and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

The Deer Clan priest asked, "Meng Tela, what kind of warrior power do you cultivate to actually have spiritual force strong enough to surpass me and my boss?"

Thunder did not reply.

The Deer Tribe priest looked a little embarrassed, but a human swordsman helped Thunder out, "Deer, don't make things difficult for Meng Tela. Every clan's qi is a secret of their clan, it cannot be leaked easily. Moreover, Meng Tela's experience in growth is too special, it's not something that we can learn. "

The Deer Priest looked at Thunder, then back at the swordmaster, and finally chose to remain silent.

Just then, the Panther Assassin returned.

Under everyone's attentive gaze, the Panther Assassin obtained the recognition of the Deputy Head and announced the information she had scouted, "Meng Tela doesn't feel wrong. I've discovered a very powerful yet extremely contracted aura that is following us. If my guess is not wrong, this person has been tracking us since the Miracle City, but he felt that our strength was too strong, so he waited for an opportunity. "

Deputy Head asked: "What realm is this person in?"

The Panther Assassin replied, "The initial estimate is Eighth Order. It's either a thief or an assassin."

Hearing that, everyone's expression became serious, they did not know what to do, and looked at Deputy Head. Here, the only person who could defeat either a Eighth Order thief or an assassin was their trusted Deputy Head.

Deputy Head said, "Since we are being targeted, this proves that Boss' guess is correct. The disappearance of the Gnomes must be related to that item."
