There is no cheat code for reincarnation? Then I will create one myself!

This is a human team. The leader is wearing black leather armor, an iron helmet, and a sword at his waist. He is in his thirties, with blond hair and a high nose. He has an ordinary appearance, but he looks at people with the side of his eyes.

"Captain Chuck? Why are you here?"

Although the unexpected guests came uninvited, Kog'Gath walked calmly to the front of the intruder group.

In the light of the fire, Kogas recognized the man who came. He was a squad leader of the Araki Town Defense Force.

"Who are you?" Captain Chuck didn't expect to meet someone who knew him here. He put the torch in front of Kogas and looked at him carefully for a while before recognizing him: "Iron Wolf Kogas?"

"I didn't expect Captain Chuck to recognize me. I'm honored."

Facing Kogas's humility, Captain Chuck did not show the arrogance he had when they first met. Instead, he said to Kogas in an equal tone: "It's been more than a year since we last met. Are you still wandering?"

"Yes, it's been just over a year since I last came to Araki Town. I just thought Captain Chuck was so busy that he forgot about me."

"No, the Iron Wolf Kog'gas is well-known in our town. You protected the caravan of merchants in the town, and those merchants have been talking about you recently."

"It was a real honor."

The Iron Wolf Mercenary Group has about thirty people. Although a team of this size has not yet reached the level of being able to station in a town, Kog'gas has indeed made a name for himself in the nearby town with his strong fighting power.

The two knight attendants of Shuki Village did not recognize Kogash because they were of a higher level than Kogash and did not need to know a wild dog like Kogash.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Kogas finally found an opportunity to get straight to the point: "Why did you come out with such fanfare?"

"Don't mention it." Captain Chuck waved his hand unhappily: "There's a weirdo in town, and we're hunting him down."

"Oh? What kind of weirdo is that? What did he do? Can you tell me more?" Kogas tilted his head to look at Xiuyi, then handed a small purse to Captain Chuck, "If I run into him, I'll be prepared."

Captain Chuck took the purse from Kog'gas calmly and shook it gently. The impact sound of the Silver Wolf was different from that of the Bronze Sparrow.

Captain Chuck put away the purse with satisfaction, and then whispered: "It is a strange man covered in animal skins. It is said that this strange man has the ability to transform into a wild beast. The strange man sneaked into Baron Wilga's mansion. I suspect that this strange man may have stolen something valuable..."

A strange man, wearing animal skins, who can transform into a wild beast...

Combining these keywords together, Xiu instantly imagined several characters.

Druid, Shaman, Orc, Monster...

"By the way, are there any strangers in your team?"

"No." Kogas shook his head honestly: "We just came from Shuki Village and didn't meet any strangers."

"I see." Captain Chuck thought for a moment and said, "Do you mind if I check it?"

Kog'gas tilted his head to look at Shuichi, and when he saw Shuichi nod imperceptibly, he also agreed: "No problem, we are willing to cooperate."

Seeing Kogas's straightforward response, Captain Chuck smiled, "Thank you for your cooperation."

Captain Chuck was quite careful in his work. Perhaps because he had spent money before, he did not let his men conduct a rough search. However, he roughly checked every shadowy place where people could hide, such as buckets, truck compartments, and all the people in the mercenary group, and indeed did not find any strange people covered in animal skins.

Since he didn't find the person he wanted to catch, Captain Chuck didn't stay for too long. He led a team of more than ten soldiers and quickly left the temporary base of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group.

Watching Captain Chuck leading the soldiers away with torches, Shuichi and Kogas both realized the seriousness of the situation.

According to the habits of the aristocrats, if ordinary civilians encounter problems, they basically will not care unless they are bored.

If a thief broke into the baron's house to steal something and was discovered, it would be normal to arrest him with such fanfare.

But this incident always gives people a weird feeling. After all, Captain Chuck is too dedicated... yes, the soldiers are too dedicated.

Either the reward is generous, or there is another hidden secret.

Either way, it spells trouble.

Shuichi and Kogas discussed it and decided to change the plan. Instead of entering Araki Town to purchase supplies, it would be better to go directly to the territory of Viscount Hocas next door.

As for supplies, they can be purchased in villages along the way.

The price is about the same, and the quality might even be better than what you buy in town because it hasn't been stored for too long.

The corresponding problem is that it is a bit more troublesome, as you may have to go to farmers’ homes one by one to purchase.

Since escaping from the Blood God Cult's dungeon, Xiuyi's plans have changed again and again, which is a perfect example of what plans cannot keep up with changes.

He originally wanted to take the little ghosts into the mercenary square in Araki Town and hire idle mercenaries to help deliver messages to the little ghosts' families.

Of course, Xiu’s family must go.

He is one of the rare ones whose parents are still alive after traveling through time. He cannot let this rarity slip away easily.

I was missing before and had no way to contact my family.

Now that I'm safe, I have to inform my parents at least.

Since there is no way to enter Araki Town and hire other mercenaries to help deliver the letter, I have to do it myself.

Xiuyi and Kog'gas discussed it and finally decided that the mercenary group should act separately.

Some people escorted the little ghosts home, and two people were sent to Logi Town to ensure the safety of Shuichi's parents.

As for Shuichi himself, he planned to accompany Kog'gas to Viscount Hocas's territory to participate in the bear hunting mission.

This bear hunting mission always gave him a strange feeling.

And since he has become the boss of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, he must be responsible for his subordinates.

What the hell is going on? He has just become the boss and separated from his subordinates just two days ago.

Don't want to do the task?

Or are you afraid of death?

As for giving up the mission... Kog'gas said that he had already received the deposit, and not going would be a breach of contract. Even if he paid the fine, he would still be beaten with a stick first, and then he could talk about other things later.

Not only would breach of contract be seen as a provocation by Viscount Hocas, but subsequent sanctions would be necessary to maintain the dignity of the nobility.

Not only that, if the mercenary group received the deposit but refused to fulfill the contract, it would be difficult for them to survive in the future.

After all, reputation is still very important.

In fact, the deposit of 30% of the total commission was also a major suspicious point of this mission.

As is the custom of the nobles, the deposit they paid has never exceeded 20%.

And according to gossip, Viscount Hocas not only invited the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, but also invited at least dozens of mercenary groups of all sizes to participate in the winter bear hunting activity.

Based on the calculation that a wandering mercenary group has 30 people, dozens of mercenary groups would have a force of thousands of people!

It's just bear hunting, is it necessary to use so many people?

I'm afraid you don't want to start a war!

It's all so abnormal.

If Kog'gas knew this information in advance, he would most likely give up the mission.

Unfortunately, after receiving the deposit, he got some news from other colleagues, but it was too late.

"Let's take it one step at a time." Xiuyi shook his head, feeling dizzy. It was because he hadn't rested for too long and his body was tired.

"Master, please sleep in my tent."

"No, I'll sleep in the carriage." Xiuyi didn't want to sleep in a tent that had been used by others. At least if conditions permitted, he would rather sleep in the carriage.

Kog'gas felt sorry for his master and took the initiative to suggest changing the plan: "How about we go to Araki Town to buy a new tent tomorrow."

"No, if you can't even bear this little bit of hardship, how can you do anything?" Xiuyi waved his hand to interrupt Kog'gas's next words: "I'm going to sleep first. Arrange the night watchmen and make sure there are no mistakes."

"Don't worry, Master. I will arrange everything. Please rest assured."

"Well, that's up to you."

"Yes."
