Thanks to Xia Ye's super high work efficiency, Aarons quickly established contact with the mercenary group that came to apply and decided on the place for the first meeting.

Since Karin and Xia Ye had met each other's contact before, Aarons was not too worried about appearing weak in front of the other party.

But after Karin came back after getting ready, she said something inexplicable to Aarons:

"The other party's qualifications and credibility are fine, but... you must remain calm when you meet him... No, you need to be mentally prepared."

"what are you talking about?"

"Anyway, please be careful when you speak!"

Karin’s attitude was indeed a bit strange, but after asking Xia Ye, Aarons got the answer “it’s no big deal”.

——He had no idea what was going on between these two people.

"A third-level mercenary group. The leader and several officers are all fourth-level. There are thirty members in total, ten logistics personnel and twenty combatants..."

After looking at the basic information brought back by Xia Ye, Aarons had a general understanding.

People with level three strength account for about 30% of the world's population, while those with level four strength account for less than 10% - these people are the main force of combat professionals.

Because they have much stronger combat power than ordinary people, these people can generally get higher incomes. After all, although humans are relatively peaceful, the threat of monsters always exists.

——After listening to Xia Ye’s explanation, Aarons gained more knowledge about Warcraft.

Most monsters are naturally larger than humans, so the "scale" of their containers is also larger. This also means that at the same rating, monsters are usually several times stronger than humans.

Under such circumstances, a professional combat organization called "Mercenary Group" becomes one of the best strategies to defeat Warcraft.

"This strength should be enough, but these people are mercenaries after all... We have to be careful."

Although mercenaries are very stable when fighting against monsters, once it involves confrontation between humans, "reward" becomes the fuse of risk.

Our side pays a certain amount of compensation and lets the mercenaries defeat the other group - but if the other side offers a higher price, will the mercenaries still remain loyal?

“…People’s hearts are unpredictable.”

Aarons didn't think that his offer would be so low as to lead to betrayal, but he still had to see with his own eyes what kind of person the other party was.

……

The next morning, Aarons brought Karin and Xia Ye to the meeting place on time.

It was said that this mercenary group had just arrived in the Empire from Cadia and was currently stationed in a village outside the city. In order not to mobilize a large number of troops, only the liaison officer of the group came to negotiate - at least that was the information Aarons had received.

But when the other party came to this quiet tavern, Aarons was really shocked.

"Hi everyone - excuse me, you are the one who wants to hire us to do something, right?"

With refreshing short dark golden hair and a handsome face that seemed to be radiating radiance, an extremely handsome young man appeared in front of Aarons in a swagger.

——Why, why is this guy so handsome!

Behind this dazzling and tooth-gritting handsome man, there is a woman who seems to be a little different from humans.

"Captain, please have a little more self-respect. You have scared away several employers."

——In addition to being almost entirely wrapped in a simple magician's robe, this beautiful woman with long brown hair and a mature temperament also had two ears on her head that were clearly not human.

Judging from the appearance, they seemed to be fox ears.

"... Is this person also a stranger?"

"It seems that you understand a lot... Excuse me, since you already have two such beauties by your side, you must be an elegant person who understands the charm of strangers, right?"

No no no what are you talking about?

Aarons' expression had not returned to normal since the man came in. Although Karin had reminded him in a roundabout way before, he had never expected the other party to be such a person.

And what did the fox girl call him just now? Captain?

"Sorry, I'm a little too excited again. Please allow me to introduce myself first. I am the leader of the Kulan Mercenary Group, Kulan Lal, who came to apply for the job after seeing the recruitment information you posted."

After casually revealing his identity, this handsome but somewhat weird man suddenly turned around and pulled the fox girl who came with him to his side.

"This is Li Yue from the Moon Fox Clan, one of my wives..."

"……one?"

"I'm really sorry, sir. My captain always likes to brag about this to others... Several cadres of our Kulan Mercenary Group are actually aliens, and they are also the captains..."

Although the last word was not spoken, Aarons already understood what the fox girl meant.

——You actually openly have a harem, right? I’m so jealous… No, I’m so pissed!

Because aliens and humans cannot produce offspring, very few humans on the continent will formally marry aliens.

Some nobles or wealthy businessmen would privately purchase some foreigners who had been enslaved as their playthings. Even in countries that allowed concubines, most people would not choose foreigners as their partners.

But this is not racial discrimination, but a customary practice - after all, many alien populations have shrunk to the point where they can hardly continue, and if they continue to lose population, they will really perish.

"My dear, there's nothing wrong with saying this, right? I'm just following my heart and doing what I like. This distinguished gentleman should be able to understand my thoughts, right?"

"Although people are free to do what they like, you are... indeed quite admirable."

Aarons subconsciously turned his head to look around him, only to find that Karin and Xia Ye were staring at him... This made him feel an unknown pressure.

"Since you also have an alien with you, then you should be someone who fully understands the charm of aliens and loves this special quality, just like me?"

"Don't think too much. These two are just servants in my house."

Seeing that the topic was about to get out of control, Aarons quickly denied the other party's speculation.

He came here to find mercenaries and had no intention of discussing his interests and hobbies with others... at least this occasion was not appropriate.

"Oh? Are these two beautiful ladies just your subordinates? If so, please allow me to confirm one thing with you first—"

However, after hearing Aarons' answer, the man seemed to suddenly become interested and put on a serious look.

"Can I pursue these two ladies?"
