Travel through time and become a member of the Warhammer Empire

The bearded man must be an excellent mercenary.

It only takes one glance to see that Windlo has no fighting ability, while the other three elves are the elite among the elite and can even go into battle as lords.

Upon hearing about the mercenary business, Mousse naturally showed great interest.

After all, loyalty is too rare for the dark elves, and they often adopt a mercenary system that uses money in exchange for temporary obedience.

"Kill what? How many? Where?"

As expected of the Lord of Terror among the Dark Elves, she knew the mercenary's position immediately.

When it comes to killing people and getting paid, I'm afraid no dark elf would choose to refuse.

"Very good, ma'am. Then let's get straight to business. The councilors of Miragliano City have discovered that the plague came from the rat people, so we must carry out continuous revenge operations."

"Rat man? Huh?"

Windlow heard such a familiar word again, but there was no memory or impression of the ratmen in his mind.

Upon seeing this situation, the bearded mercenary leader immediately raised his head and looked at Windlow.

"You don't know about the existence of Nezumi. Are you from the Empire?"

Although the entire Old World seems to have busy traffic, sometimes there is some information that cannot be communicated between two nearby countries.

Within the Empire, almost every Imperial citizen is unaware of the existence of the Rat People.

But in the southern kingdom across the Grey Mountains, the people here are very familiar with the ratmen.

"Okay, let me first tell you what a rat man is."

The mercenary leader stood up, found a blackboard, and began to write and draw on it.

This is the tradition of the Tyrells. Unlike the Empire, which worships Sigmar, the Tyrells and Estalia worship the goddess of war, Myrmidia.

As a believer of Myrmidia, every Tyrell soldier and mercenary must master many basic skills from the day they join the barracks.

That's right, unlike the provincial troops of the Empire who are basically illiterate, Tyrell's mercenaries are almost all educated people.

Because the goddess Myrmidia values ​​tactics, discipline, and quality, all members of all Tyrell mercenary groups use strategic affiliation and tactical analysis.

A board is what the mercenary leader often uses when formulating tactics for his subordinates.

Everyone must know what their mission is, so as to avoid a chain rout like the Empire or Bretonnia, where they will be defeated and even unable to regroup after being defeated.

Looking at the board, the mercenary leader had already written down everything needed for teaching.

It just so happened that the high elf Izexi had only heard of ratmen but had never actually seen one, so he stood aside very quietly.

Ratmen, or special beastmen, are a very dangerous species.

According to scholars' research, the Skaven first appeared in the swamps in northern Tyrell, where humans and dwarves coexisted.

4000 years ago, that city was destroyed, and from it emerged the Rat People.

There are currently three views on the birth of the Skaven in the Tyrell academic community.

One, rat-men are as old as humans, having evolved from other species through the theory of evolution.

Second, the ratmen are beasts that have been mutated by the pollution of chaos, but they are in the form of rats, and they stick together, becoming disconnected from other beastmen.

3. Ratmen are a mutation of humans and dwarves.

The academic community generally believes the second speculation.

With the birth of the ratmen and the humans gaining a foothold in Tyrell, the confrontation between Tyrell and the ratmen has never stopped.

The ratmen will continue to invade the various republics and principalities of Tyrell, and the various duchies and republics will use military force to drive the ratmen out.

It’s a pity that the ratmen’s city is deep underground, so even if it is a complete victory, the Tyrell army has no way to pursue the victory.

The Skaven did not focus all their attention on the territory of Tyrell.

They chose to go deep into the city sewers of the empire and hide their presence as much as possible from the people of the empire, which also led to the fact that almost no one in the empire knew about the existence of the rat people.

But in Tyrell, the locals even know the Skaven's weaknesses.

Ratmen reproduce quickly, but their nutritional needs are also high, so they need to eat continuously, which also means that they cannot engage in a protracted war.

The morale of the ratmen is very low. Sometimes a volley of musket fire or a round of artillery explosion can make all the ratmen flee.

Finally, the gender ratio of ratmen is similar to that of dwarves. There are very few female ratmen. Once a battle involves female ratmen, the ratmen will even fight to the death.

"In order to retaliate against the ratmen for spreading the plague in Miragliano, the people in the parliament generously offered a gold coin reward."

The mercenary leader took away the board introducing the ratmen and replaced it with a recent policy briefing.

"Killing a Slave Rat will reward you 1 copper coin, killing a Clan Rat will reward you 3 copper coins, killing a Skaven Storm Rat will reward you 2 silver coins, destroying a Skaven Weapon Team will reward you 3 silver coins, and killing a Skaven Warlord will reward you 10 gold coins."

I didn't expect that Tyrell is a country that attaches great importance to contracts and mercenary contracts. The different prices of different ratmen alone are written in such detail.

There is no need to worry about disputes over the reward after killing the rat men.

"Finally, if you kill a female ratman, you will be rewarded with 500 gold coins."

Unexpectedly, among all the ratmen, the female ratmen who have no ability to resist are the most valuable prey.

Mousse was not surprised by this. After all, he had killed so many ratmen in Naggaroth, but had never encountered a female ratman.

"These are your mercenary contracts. You can earn money by killing ratmen in the Blighted Swamp. With the money, you can buy all the supplies and enjoy the special treatment of Tyrell mercenaries."

It seems that there is really business everywhere in Tyrell, and there is certainly business to be done in killing and escorting.

Moreover, the killing of ratmen was a revenge against ratmen initiated by the nobles of Miragliano City. The people here have thousands of years of experience in fighting against ratmen.

The four of them immediately accepted the task. After all, if they continued to stay in the city they would only end up starving, so they might as well try their luck in the Withered Swamp.

"Is the ratman a powerful race?"

The first thing Windlow did after leaving the city was to ask Mousse, after all, Mousse was the only one among everyone who had combat experience.

Mousse looked at Wendlow who was unarmed.

"You can now kill 10 slave rats."

Then he took out a dagger and placed it in his hand.

"Now that you have the weapon, you can kill 20 slave rats directly, or even defeat the clan rats one-on-three."

Mousse was right, the ratmen were a very weak race, their individual strength was not very strong, and ordinary untrained human males could also defeat the odds.

The only question is, where are the rat men hiding?
