Chapter 440: 440
On the street of the Thirty-first City, there were many warriors riding tall savage beasts . They wore thick armor, with huge swords hanging at their waists and bags on their backs . Some of them had blood stain on their armors . It seemed that they had just returned from their missions .
This was the gathering place for the most powerful mercenaries in the Eastern Region . Every large-scale Mercenary Group had its stronghold in the city to receive and pass on tasks .
The Silver Sky Mercenary Group wasn't the top-ranking mercenary group in the Eastern Region . Its history only spanned several decades, incomparable to the top groups that had been operating for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years .
From the Commander to the ordinary mercenary, the vast majority of them were young . The eldest one was no more than 60 .
Yet, the young group had quite the reputation in the Eastern Region . That was because they only accepted genius mercenaries, with the weakest one among them being a Three-realm Fighting Genius .
Moreover, the reputation value of the group was extremely high . In the Mercenary Union, it was enough to rank in the top five .
For a mercenary, reputation was the most important thing .
No matter how powerful a mercenary was, no one would hire one without reputation .
The Commander of the group, Silvermoon, was a beautiful and talented person blessed with extreme luck . Though she wasn't a Saintly Being, she was on par with one . Her cultivation had reached the Ninth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm . She might very well end up being the youngest Half-Saint in the Eastern Region .
Two deputy commanders served under her .
One of them was Nie Honglou .
Despite his young looks that made him look 20, Nie Honglou was already 42 . His eyebrows were like green peaks . His eyes were like cold stars and his nose was like a dangling gallbladder . He was very handsome .
He was clean without a speck of dust or a single stain on his clothing . His gestures and movements demonstrated a chic and elegant noble temperament .
Presently, he, Lu Yi, and Zhang Ruochen were seated in a luxurious and elegant room on the second floor of the Kong Yi Tower .
They were sitting in a different direction, calmly tasting the wine .
Lu Yi, who was the disciple of Sword Sanctum, was under Lu Youcai's orders to welcome Zhang Ruochen . He was a master in the First Change in the Fish-dragon Realm .
He put down his glass and asked curiously, "Mr Zhang, I heard from the presbyter that you're going to hire a top master . Is it just for dealing with the Blood Spirit?"
Zhang Ruochen nodded . "Dealing with the Blood Spirit is one reason . I want a master around me for protection at all times . "
Lu Yi looked like understanding finally dawned on him .
Now, everyone knew that Zhang Ruochen had swallowed the Dragon Pearl and he was Buddha Emperor's descendant . There would certainly be many who wanted to kill him .
It was reasonable that he wanted to hire a top-level mercenary to protect him .
Nie Honglou grinned . "The Blood Spirit isn't simple . It must have combined large amount of Half-Saint's Light . It's stronger than some masters in the Seventh Change in the Fish-dragon Realm and has the potential to be a Half-Saint . I can't kill her on my own . "
Lu Yi frowned . "If even the Deputy Commander Nie can't kill her, we can only ask for Half-Saint's help . Only he can kill her for sure . "
Nie Honglou smiled . "That's not for sure . If Mr Zhang can pay a price high enough, I can even invite the Commander of Silvermoon Group . If she's willing to help, I have every confidence that we'll kill the Blood Spirit . "
Lu Yi was shocked when he heard the name of Commander of Silvermoon Group . "It's said that the Commander had learned the martial arts of 100 families and observed 18 volumes of the Half-Saint's Sacred Glyphand . Her cultivation is infinitely close to the Half-Saint Realm . It's not difficult for her to kill the Blood Spirit if she's willing to help . "
"How much money should I pay for her help?" Zhang Ruochen .
The more powerful the mercenary was, the higher the price would be .
He would need a huge amount of Spiritual Crystals to hire a strong warrior like Silvermoon for just one day .
Nie Honglou smiled . "It's hard to say . The Commander doesn't do business according to the routine . Once, she helped a beggar to kill the descendant of the Half-Saint family for a silver coin . However, she also asked for 100 million Spiritual Crystals and scared off the deacon of Saint Xu Gentry .
"I can't promise you now . I can only help you tell the Commander . I'm not sure if she'll be willing to help . "
"All right! I'll go with you to the Silver Sky Mercenary Group," Zhang Ruochen said .
Though he trusted the mercenary to help him relay his request, he still wanted to visit the Silver Sky Mercenary Group personally . In particular, he wanted to meet the Commander and see what kind of talent she was .
