Chapter 20 Hitting the road
The Iron Wolf Mercenaries have a total of 27 members. The reason why Kog'gas and his men met Shuichi was because they accepted a commission from a certain lord and planned to go into the mountains to hunt bears in winter.
Bears are very strong creatures. After accumulating enough fat in the fall, they hibernate in the winter to resist the cold and hunger.
But there are also some bears that wake up hungry in winter because they did not accumulate enough energy in the fall.
The winter in the Moshustan Empire this year is not too cold. The early winter is very peaceful, but in the next few days there should be heavy snow enough to close the mountains.
After Kog'gas accepted Shuichi's commission, he brought the rest of the team over.
What surprised Xiuyi the most was that the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group actually had three carriages specifically used to transport supplies.
According to Kog'gas's original words, these wandering mercenary groups have always gone wherever they go.
Therefore, a horse-drawn carriage was needed to transport all the belongings.
Although the two parties reached a preliminary employment relationship, Xiuyi did not have much trust in Kog'Gath.
As someone who had been involved in society in his previous life, he knew very well that the quality of loyalty is precious because it is rare.
Many times, loyalty is not enough just at the cost of betrayal.
Xiuyi never denied "loyalty", he just lamented the preciousness of this quality.
Kogaze and Shuichi are just new acquaintances, and their personalities remain to be verified.
Shuichi now has something else to do, which is to read the diary.
I was busy traveling during the day and had no time to read the bald man's diary.
Although he read some of the diary by the firelight after dinner, due to the bald man's neurosis, many of the things written in the diary were meaningless to Shuichi.
But he couldn't skip these long-winded texts for fear of missing out on any important information.
After looking for a long time, I didn't see any useful information, and Xiuyi almost ran naked in front of people...
Now that he has the Iron Wolf Mercenaries to help keep watch, Xiuyi can relax a little... No way.
Ultimately it's a question of trust.
Xiuyi doesn't trust the people from the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group very much, but the situation of the little kids is not optimistic. It is always better to have adults around than to go alone.
In addition, the injured little girl could not move on her own, so although the freight carriage was very uncomfortable to sit in, it was still feasible to spare one.
Xiuyi spent the night reading books by the firelight.
Even though he didn't sleep all night, he was still very energetic.
Before 6 o'clock in the morning, the members of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group started to get up and cook.
Their staple food is mashed potatoes and bacon, and the people in charge of cooking are female mercenaries, who are relatively rare in the mercenary world.
Her name was Klotik, she was about thirty years old, had an ordinary appearance, strong arms, and short dark blue hair that just covered her left eye.
Klotik likes children very much and took the initiative to take on the task of taking care of the child.
According to the conversation with Iron Wolf Kogas, Shuichi learned that Klotik was once an ordinary mother. Because her son disappeared for no reason, she and her husband embarked on a journey to find the child.
Because her husband used to be a mercenary, the couple had to return to their old job to make a living.
Later, the couple joined the Iron Wolf Mercenaries.
But in a battle last year, Klotik's husband was unfortunately killed...
Klotik did not give up looking for his son, but became more determined to find his child.
Klotik's own combat capability is in the middle to lower ranks in the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, but she is thoughtful and good at cooking, so she is mainly responsible for logistics work in the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, and will only join the battle occasionally when there is a shortage of manpower.
When it comes to the stories of mercenaries, most of them have tragic experiences.
If one could live an ordinary life, how many people would be willing to live on the edge of a knife?
I can only sigh that eight out of ten things in life are not as we wish.
Because Klotik had lost a child before, he was particularly gentle to the little ones.
The injured little girl last night had half of her face and most of her hair destroyed, so Klotik patiently helped her comb her hair, trying to cover the destroyed half of her face with the remaining hair.
In fact, when the little girl woke up this morning, she still couldn't accept her fate.
After all, both men and women are born to love beauty, and girls are even more so.
Fortunately, with Klotik's comfort, the little girl's mood stabilized a lot, and she even knew to take the initiative to thank Xiuyi.
When Shuichi was sitting by the fire, reading a book in his left hand and holding a spoon in his right hand, the little girl came up with red eyes.
She first looked back at Klotik who was encouraging her, took a deep breath, and bowed timidly to Xiuyi: "Thank you, honorable sir... If it weren't for you... I'm afraid..."
"Gothil, no need to thank me. I promised to take you home."
Xiu nodded expressionlessly to the injured girl, then signaled with his eyes that she could leave.
"Okay... okay..." Although she was ruthlessly driven away by Shuichi, Gothil was actually very happy in her heart.
Although she was disfigured, her heart was not blind.
What Shuichi said before he led them out of the dungeon yesterday was to take everyone out and then go their separate ways.
After finding out that there was a wilderness above the dungeon, Shuichi silently swallowed his words and protected them like a nanny.
It was obvious that his highest survival rate was to act alone, but he was able to stop for the weak like them... How kind he was.
Looking at the back of Gothil who was accidentally disfigured, Xiuyi felt a little headache.
Although the Eye of Water Element God is obtained, it can only be used for a maximum of 12 hours at a time.
The book does explain the reason, which roughly means that it is out of power and needs to be recharged...
Moreover, depending on the rank and the concentration of magic in the air, the time it takes to charge a creature will increase or decrease.
According to the situation of [Alissa Rand's Lance], a gold-level equipment, and the magic concentration at the current location, it will take about 6 months to fully charge this creation...
If Shuichi could recover [Alissa Rand's Lance] before its energy was completely consumed, it wouldn't take that long.
It can only be said that Xiuyi knew too little information, and he plunged into the circle of awakened people, but did not have time to learn various knowledge.
Fortunately, he had the bald man’s diary as a reference, otherwise he would have really gone crazy.
At present, Xiuyi has no clothes to change, so he can only hope that the people from the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group can be helpful and send him to a place where humans live as soon as possible so that he can buy some clothes.
And the new clothes should be ordinary so as not to be too conspicuous.
Ten minutes later, Iron Wolf Kogas came to Shuichi and bowed politely: "Your Excellency Shuichi, the team is ready and can set off at any time."
Shuichi put down the wooden spoon and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief before asking, "Where is the nearest human settlement?"
Seeing Xiuyi wiping his mouth with a handkerchief, Kogas lowered his head hastily: "Keming Town is only more than ten kilometers away. Although the road is a bit remote, we can get there before noon."
"Well, is the car free?"
"Yes, I have already reserved a truck for you..." Kogas lowered his head in fear and trepidation: "The conditions are simple, please don't blame me."
"You've done a great job, Kog'Gath. I should be the one thanking you."
"I am extremely grateful for your grace of not punishing me..." Kog'gas heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Shuichi being so kind.
He was really worried that after seeing the simple carriage, Xiuyi would kill them all out of anger.
Now, it's like hitting a wolf with a stick, and both ends are afraid of it.
Xiuyi needs the Iron Wolf Mercenaries to lead the way for him. Iron Wolf Kogas and his men are worried about Xiuyi's powerful military force, and they somehow reach a delicate balance.
