Chapter 112: The New King of the Grey Territory (Update )
"No comment."

"Hmph, boring. A total of 1,500 gold coins, and a handling fee of 50 gold coins."

"There's a handling fee for this too?" Raven exclaimed.

"It comes from my hands, hehe."

Raven suppressed the urge to punch him to death and continued, "Do you have a weapon?"

"A standard long sword costs ten gold coins, an elite long sword costs twenty gold coins, and a heritage-level sword costs fifty gold coins."

"Give me thirty standard long swords."

"Boy, do you think you have enough money? Don't joke with me." The man in gray robe looked at him suspiciously.

"Don't worry about that."

Raven pulled out a ring and dumped bags of gold coins out of it.

After counting them, the man in gray robe nodded with satisfaction.

"Tell me a delivery location, and I'll deliver the goods in a week."

"Not on the spot?" Raven frowned.

"Are you kidding me? How can I possibly carry such a large amount of supplies with me?"

"How can I believe you without any evidence?"

"See this?"

The man in gray robe picked up a metal plate beside the table with the words "Candle Snake" written on it.

"Zhushe's promise is its credibility. Your small amount of money is not worth the organization's default."

"I'm afraid you'll default on your debt."

"Boy, are you questioning me? Humph, if there is any problem you can ask Candle Snake."

"What if Candle Snake says you acted on your own?"

"..."

Raven remembered that this kind of thing was not uncommon in his original world.

"Hmph, you decide, or the deal is off."

Damn, is every salesman so arrogant?
Raven thought about it and nodded:

"I can promise you, but you have to write a contract in the name of the Gray Domain Organization."

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Okay, where is the transaction location?"

"On the outskirts of Weiner City."

He didn't mention Lentini for fear that the other party would guess his identity.

"Hehe, you must have cursed me to death in your heart?" asked the gray-robed man with a smile.

Curse to death? I hope you really die!
Raven walked away angrily.

After he disappeared, Linda frowned at the man in gray robes, and her tone became condescending:

"I introduced this chick to you, why are you asking such a high price?"

The gray-robed man pulled a long face and said, "Deacon Linda, it's not my idea, it's the organization's request."

“That’s not the price.”

"There is nothing we can do about it. The organization has recently encountered a crisis and must strengthen its strength as soon as possible."

"What happened?"

Seeing that no one was around, the grey-robed man whispered:

"I heard that the sixth generation king of the Gray Family passed away."

Linda was shocked: "When did it happen?"

"A week ago, it's still in the confidentiality stage. I have a friend who is in the core of the organization, and he revealed it to me."

"Who is the new king?"

The gray-robed man's voice became even quieter: "It is said that it was the one in the Night Lighthouse."

Linda covered her mouth with an incredible expression.

"How is that possible? Isn't he imprisoned?"

"It was indeed unexpected. Not only did he come out, but he also went on a killing spree, killing almost all of the upper echelons of the Gray Family, and only then did he ascend to the throne."

"It's terrible. With his madness, who knows what kind of bloody storm will be unleashed in the Gray Region." Linda became worried.

"This is also what the organization is worried about. After all, the combat organization that imprisoned him was also involved, so they feel the crisis."

"No wonder, what are the reactions of the other major organizations?"

"It is said that they are having a secret meeting, but I don't know anything else." The man in gray robe said worriedly.

Linda sighed faintly:
"The Gray Family, that's the founding family of the Gray Territory. I just hope they won't be too pushy."

After leaving the gray-robed man, Raven and Lanster went to other areas.

Since he was here, he wanted to see what was here.

When passing by a place, he found that it actually provided mercenary services.

Raven's heart moved. Although Lentini was safe now, no one knew how long it would last.

He only has a group of new recruits. Even if they are trained further, they will not become strong. Once they encounter a strong enemy, it will be of no use.

It would be different if we could hire some ready-made strong people.

"Welcome to Nightmare Moon."

They were greeted by a woman in a black robe and wearing a vine-flower mask, revealing only her plump red lips.

"Hey, there are two chicks here, what do you need me to do?"

She said ambiguously, her bright red lips dazzling the eyes.

"I want to hire a group of mercenaries." Raven said mysteriously.

"You're a boy who doesn't understand romance."

The woman curled her red lips.

"Do you want dark mercenaries or war slaves?"

"Please introduce them all."

“Dark mercenaries mainly come from various races, usually criminals and outcasts.

They separated from their tribe, lived in the human world and made a living by being employed.

These people are called dark mercenaries because they cannot see the light."

"What races are they?"

"That's a lot, including the wise people, the ancient survivors, the frozen earth barbarians, and even the sea people.

If you can afford it, I have a few top-grade Moon Sacrifice Spirits."

"Sacrifice to the Moon Spirit!" Raven was surprised.

The Moon-Sacrificing Spirits were known as the race of gods. They once ruled Qinglan for a long time. At that time, both the intelligent people and the human race were their prey.

The individuals of this race are extremely powerful, and when they reach adulthood they possess the strength of a celestial-level warrior.

"Are you surprised? Nightmare Moon is one of the top five organizations in the Gray Domain. This is nothing." The woman said proudly.

"What about the war slaves?"

“They are usually prisoners captured during the war and bought by the organization.

They are much weaker than the dark mercenaries, but they are more numerous and cheaper. Are you interested?"

After saying that, she gave him an ambiguous look.

"There are some pretty girls in there, with lots of experience, just perfect for you to get a chance to be baptized."

"I'm afraid of getting sick."

The woman raised her eyebrows:
"So, you are experienced, brother?"

"Stop, stop, stop, let's get down to business. Are they reliable?"

“Don’t worry about that. Slaves created by Nightmare Moon will always be loyal to their masters and will not hesitate to let them die.

"You hypnotized them?"

"Hehe, hypnosis?

That method is too low-level. The organization uses the secret method of mental power, which is the unique skill of Nightmare Moon. "

Raven frowned: "Since you have this secret method, how can I guarantee that you won't continue to control them after I buy them back?"

The woman sneered.

"Nightmare Moon's reputation is much more valuable than this.

What level do you want, advanced, great warrior or honorary?"

"Are there any Honor Rank ones? How much is the price?"

"Two thousand gold coins each, there are both male and female ones, but considering your current physique, I suggest you choose a male one." She gave an ambiguous smile.

"What about the great warrior level?"

"Eight hundred gold coins each. I suggest you choose a female one."

"Where are the senior warriors?" Raven ignored her.

"Three hundred gold coins."

"I want ten high-ranking warriors," Raven said decisively, "Only the ones with weapons!"

"Boring." The woman smiled, "Pay the money first, and then give me a place to trade."

"You won't default on your debt, will you?"

The woman looked down at him slightly, her plump red lips curved up: "That has to be worth it for you."

Led by Linda, the two left the underground, and Linda blew them a kiss before leaving.

"You two, welcome back next time."

Damn it, there will be next time!
This is too damn evil. Twenty thousand gold coins were spent in a short time. Who can withstand this?
