Chapter 143: The Misunderstood Mercenary Industry (Chinese)

“I think…”

Chu Nan rolled his eyes and saw a scene of a full martial arts movement between political parties during a meeting. Those politicians who were wearing suits, ties, and kept saying that they were civilized people could beat their heads in full view of the public for their own benefit. Why do these mercenaries who looked tough and rude perform much better than those well-dressed politicians?

"You... won't think that the people here will take action after a disagreement, right?" McAllen saw through Chu Nan's thoughts.

"Yes." Chu Nan nodded. He also had time travelers who had read several fantasy novels. The mercenary union in those novels were definitely a symbol of roughness, and scenes of teasing the girl often appeared.

"Why do you think they're going to fight?" This time McAllen couldn't understand.

"This..." Chu Nan thought about it for a moment: "Why don't they fight?"

McAllen smiled: "Mercenaries are professions that add blood to the knife. They go blood in the knife every day, and their lives are full of dangers. The least thing for such a group of people is to offend people. You know, offending one person means having one more enemy. Even if you kill this person you offend, who can guarantee that the person you killed has no relatives and friends behind him? Those people will become enemies in the dark! The enemies in the dark are the most difficult to guard against! Everyone comes out to make a living, not seeking death. Those who like to be arrogant in the mercenary union are usually killed when they leave the city."

"Oh~~" Chu Nan nodded: "In other words, those idiots who like to be arrogant have long died."

"Yes." McAllen nodded: "Every industry has its own rules. The mercenary industry means that when ensuring that the entrusted tasks are completed, try to offend people as little as possible. This is the way for mercenaries to survive."

Chu Nan nodded with a smile, and thought it was true! If the mercenary union people tease them when they see beautiful girls, and if they see someone weaker than them, they will insult them verbally. Which client will go to the mercenary union to publish tasks? It’s too late to hide! No one likes to publish tasks in a robber’s nest.

At this time, Avron had completed the procedures for issuing the task at the front desk. He walked over with several lists of mercenaries in his hand: "All of them have been handled, the Satan Mercenary Group, the Cactus Mercenary Group, and the Holy Grail Mercenary Group. They are fifteen, nineteen, and seven. They are responsible for food and accommodation. Each person has three gold coins."

"Three gold coins?" Chu Nan frowned slightly: "They don't know who they want to protect, right?"

Avren nodded: "Yes, they don't know."

"This is not possible!" Chu Nan waved his hand: "They must know who is protecting!"

"That……"

"I know!" Chu Nan interrupted Afron's explanation: "You want to say that if they knew that the protected Son of Light of the Great Sage, the price of their land would be higher, right? Then give them a high price!"

Chu Nan suddenly raised his voice: "Life! It is priceless! These people live a life of blood on their heads every day. They may have forgotten the preciousness of their lives. But as employers, we must not forget! We must tell them honestly!"

The high-pitched voice broke the tranquility of the mercenary union, and everyone's eyes were attracted by Chu Nan.

What is this young man in ordinary clothes?

In the past, fighting only killed some enemies, but Chu Nan's feeling of death was not so strong. When the fierce battle that night ended, looking at the corpses all over the ground, smiling kindly to him on weekdays, expressing concern in the details of life, and the soldiers who respected him very much turned into cold corpses, Chu Nan once again truly realized death.

Those who turned into corpses died for him! If it weren't for the Sage of the Great Sage to snipe the Son of Light, the warriors who protected him wouldn't have lost their lives like this.

Someone in the team was having a meal and said very excitedly that when they returned to the Temple of Light this time, they could proudly tell their children that he was the one who escorted the Son of Light, and that would be the eternal glory of their family.

Those who thought that he would escort were glorious, just silently and forever sleeping in the earth. Chu Nan didn't know how to face the families of those warriors after entering the holy city.

I have long been accustomed to pretending to be a saint anytime, anywhere. With the re-understanding of life, Chu Nan's half-true and half-false shouting has a stronger impact.

At this time, the three mercenary groups hired by Avron had arrived near Chu Nan, and there were complex emotions, doubts, curiosity, and touching in everyone's eyes.

Mercenaries have long been used to hang their heads on their belts to live, and people have also been used to looking at such professions like this. Chu Nan's shouting touched the thoughts that have long been sealed in their hearts.

After being watched by so many people, Chu Nan coughed gently, breaking a somewhat awkward atmosphere and said, "Everyone, I don't want to lie to you. In fact, I was sniped by the Duo Temple. Because of my mistake, the team members died a lot. Now I want to rush to the Holy City, but I am afraid that other members will encounter danger again..."

Holy City? Snipers from the Temple of the Multi-Shenzhen? Everyone looked at Chu Nan suspiciously and secretly guessed Chu Nan's identity. The person with a little more awesome head had guessed Chu Nan's identity.

"That's right!" Chu Nan nodded honestly: "I am the Son of Light of the Great Sage. This time the matter may be very dangerous. I am very dissatisfied with the price of employment given by my companions. In my opinion, everyone's lives are equal on the scale of life and judged. No one's life is noble. I hope to reprice. If you are afraid of danger, I can apply to refund your entrustment, and you will never lose points of your mercenary."
