Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Seeing the old Walter who was the deputy leader and had always acted calmly, he showed a rare expression of shock. The mercenaries, including the other two elderly magicians, couldn't help but start to look at each other.

After a while, looking at Old Walter who was still in a sluggish state, the impatient fire magician Old Phil couldn't help but blow his gray beard again.

Then he asked: "Deputy leader, what happened? You should speak!"

"I just received a report from the liaison officer of the Fanyin City branch."

Old Walter took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and then said slowly: "Just as your Excellency the guest said, the offensive and defensive battle for the mountain fortress that started early this morning ended with a great victory for our Lengyan Army. end!"

At this time, Old Walter's eyes fell on Lei Xiao, who looked indifferent in front of him, and he couldn't help but show a look of awe.

With a trembling voice, he said word by word: "It is precisely because of the great help of Your Excellency Ke Qing and Her Royal Highness the Princess that after a long day of fierce fighting, the three legions of our Lengyan Army were wiped out in one fell swoop at the cost of eight thousand casualties. Five legions of the Holy Night Army were defeated, and most of the opponents' third-level and above strong men were lost!"

At this point, Old Walter's voice became more and more excited, and he continued: "Moreover, the embarrassed remnants of the Holy Night Army have all retreated to their own side of the border, spitting out all the land they previously occupied. !”

"Deputy Commander, this...is this true?"

After listening to Old Walter's ups and downs and exciting words, after a moment of silence, Old Phil, who was wearing a red robe on the side, immediately stepped forward, grabbed the former's arm, and said in amazement: "My Leng Yan Army is really on the border battlefield. Such a great victory?!”

"Absolutely true."

Taking another deep breath, Old Walter's old face was full of solemnity. He first bowed slightly to Lei Xiao, and then said: "What the guest said just now is exactly the same!"

Directly across from him, Lei Xiao smiled and said nothing, but nodded slightly.

"That's great! It was actually my Leng Yan Army who won the great victory!"

"Hahaha, God bless me Leng Yan!"

“It’s such a joy to be able to eradicate most of those holy night bastards!”

"Speaking of which, I am really grateful to Her Royal Highness the Princess and Your Excellency Ke Qing! They are simply the pillars of my country, Leng Yan!"

At this moment, the other mercenaries, including the other two old magicians, couldn't help but cheer, and their uncontrollable cheers began to ring out one after another in the banquet hall.

However, while the mercenaries were excited, pairs of eyes with shame and awe focused on Lei Xiao.

Just now, they were still using their villain's heart to criticize a gentleman, doubting the authenticity of Ke Qing's words. You must know that Your Excellency Ke Qing is the hero of this battle!

And they, just because of the war mission, began to maliciously speculate on Your Excellency...

"Your Excellency, guest, I just showed little knowledge, please don't be offended."

Old Walter, who was wearing a blue robe, was seen caressing his gray beard awkwardly, and said to Lei Xiao: "I am here to apologize to Your Excellency and Your Highness the Princess."

After finishing speaking, the old magician bowed in the direction of Lei Xiao and Ariel again.

The other mercenaries also lowered their heads in shame.

With the unfavorable power of three legions, they defeated eight legions of the Holy Night Army... With such a shocking battle loss ratio, no one would doubt that the young man with a smile in front of him was absolutely terrifyingly tough!

"Master Walter, you're welcome, everyone is welcome."

Waving his hand slightly, Lei Xiao still maintained a smile and said: "As I said just now, we are not familiar with each other yet, so it is natural to have questions.

Furthermore, this great victory was all because Her Royal Highness was at the forefront of the battlefield, fighting bloody battles with the cold flame warriors without fear of life or death, and I was just assisting. "

"Your Excellency, Ke Qing, is too humble. Just because you are appreciated by Her Royal Highness, it means that Your Excellency, Ke Qing, is by no means an ordinary person."

On the other side, the old magician Walter stroked his long white beard and then flattered him.

Needless to say, although Her Royal Highness the Princess is capable of both civil and military skills, she has never been on the battlefield.

Naturally, it was impossible for someone who had seen a Shura place like a bloody battlefield for the first time to command the army so calmly.

As for Bai Lao, the commander of the mountain fortress, although he is also a famous general of Leng Yan, he also has the reputation of a fortress general who will never fall.

However, in its previous confrontations with the Red Devils, it had never achieved such a big victory. In the past, the victory or defeat was at most 50-50, which was still evenly matched, let alone such a disparity in combat power. .

Otherwise, the morale in the fortress would not be so low.

Therefore, the greatest possibility is undoubtedly that this young guest played a decisive role in the victory or defeat of this war.

Realizing this, old Walter's slightly cloudy eyes turned, and a trace of doubt flooded his old face again.

Still asking the question just now, what is the origin of this unfathomable young guest? It's simply unbelievable.

"Master Walter is so complimentary."

Looking at the old Walter's obscure and confused face, Lei Xiao changed the subject and said, "Well, now we can continue to talk about the commission I just mentioned, right?"

Then, without waiting for the other party to answer, Lei Xiao added: "Currently, the Holy Night Army has retreated to its home base, and all its food and baggage has been burned. At least in the short term, it is unable to launch an attack.

Moreover, as far as I know, the new king of Shengye is extremely hesitant about the war between the two countries. All of this is just the wealthy and powerful people of the main war faction in Shengye who are causing trouble behind the scenes. This battle is a big defeat, and I am afraid there will be no more. Can't make any waves. "

Looking at the hesitant eyes of the old magician, Lei Xiao shook the goblet in his hand and continued: "From this, as I said at the beginning, what your Highness the Princess has entrusted to you is just a It’s just an extremely simple guardianship mission.”

"this……"

Hearing this, Old Walter looked at each other again with the two old magicians beside him, and both saw a hint of hesitation in each other's eyes.

Even so, the commission from Her Royal Highness the Princess is a war mission after all, so it naturally requires careful consideration of the pros and cons.

"Master Walter, Master Phil, Master Swell, currently, Lengyan is in danger of internal and external troubles and may be in danger of overturning at any time."

While sipping the rose-colored champagne in the glass, Lei Xiao said leisurely: "I know this, for you bohemian people, the impact is quite limited, but if you can help the Leng Yan royal family to defend the fortress, then you will undoubtedly He will gain the reputation of protecting the country and the people."

Having said this, Lei Xiao smiled slightly and continued to add: "I think your mercenary group will not dislike it, and my reputation is getting higher and higher, right?"

"This is true. Expanding its influence in the human nations will indeed attract more powerful people to join."

Nodding slightly, Old Swell stroked his beard and said thoughtfully.

"Old man, don't think too beautifully!"

I saw the impetuous old Phil on the side with a straight face, blowing his beard and glaring: "Once the Holy Night comes back and attacks again for revenge, then won't we become the other party's sandbags in vain?"

"Oh? Is Master Phil so unsure of his own strength?"

Still with that tepid expression, Lei Xiao smiled in a half-joking tone.

"That's not true."

Hearing the vague displeasure in Lei Xiao's tone, Old Phil, who was wearing a red robe, coughed twice and laughed dryly: "I'm just assessing the risks of this mission. It's just an occupational disease. Please don't, sir." Sorry."

After Old Phil finished speaking, Old Walter and Old Swale on the side also nodded repeatedly, and what was different from the former was that both of them showed a look of eagerness to try.

Just as the young guest in front of me said, at present, at least in a short period of time, the chance of the Holy Night Army coming back from a major defeat is almost zero.

Therefore, this commission from Her Royal Highness the Princess can indeed be said to bring fame and fortune.

After exchanging glances with each other again, Old Walter, as the deputy leader, immediately said: "Your Excellency, can you allow the three of me to discuss it for a moment?"

"Three masters, please excuse me."

After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao nodded slightly, raised his wine glass, turned around and left.

While turning around, Lei Xiao couldn't help but raised his eyebrows slightly.

Judging from the obviously loose expression on old Walter's wrinkled old face, this commission is already close to the mark.

Next, naturally, it’s time to talk about the price of employment.

And this is precisely the aspect that I don't care about the least.

Sure enough, just after Lei Xiao put a piece of golden fried fish covered in rich sauce, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside into his mouth.

The three old magicians appeared in front of him again with very vigorous steps.

"Your Excellency, guest, since it is a commission issued by Her Royal Highness the Princess, then our Dragon Teeth Mercenary Group is naturally bound to do so!"

Smiling at Lei Xiao, Old Walter couldn't wait to say: "Our Dragon Teeth Mercenary Group is willing to accept this commission!"

Speaking of this, old Walter couldn't help but show a hint of hesitation on his old face, and he said: "But..."

“What Master Walter is talking about is a commission issue, right?”

Nodding to the old magician, Lei Xiao smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, Her Royal Highness the Princess still has enough golden dragons on her body. Master Walter only needs to say a number. As for the employment period, he will first guard the mountain fortress. A month, maybe.”

"I understand, then I will speak frankly."

Hearing the sound, Old Walter hardly hesitated, and then said: "Your Excellency, including me, there are twelve strong men present, as well as two elite second-level mercenary squadrons of our Dragon Teeth Mercenary Group, a total of 212 people, one day How about 60,000 gold dragons and above-average accommodation and food?"

After speaking, Old Walter swallowed involuntarily.

This price is about 10% higher than the standard commission. He deliberately increased it after discussion. He must give Mr. Ke Qing some room to bargain, right?

According to previous experience, even the richest nobles will definitely haggle to some extent. After all, no one's wealth can be blown by strong winds or doubled with the move of a finger.

Seeing the golden dragon flowing into other people's pockets, even if it was the Lengyan royal family bidding, they still had to shop around.

You know, if calculated on a monthly basis, that would be 1.8 million golden dragons, which is enough to equal the total profit of an ordinary-sized city for more than ten years. It can be seen from this!

For example, the previous lord of Fanyin City, Al, couldn't afford so much money...

For ordinary civilians, the price of this day is undoubtedly an astronomical figure that cannot be earned in a lifetime!

At this time, just when old Walter was thinking about whether he was about to cum.

On the other side, Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then said decisively: "Deal!"

For him, using only 1.8 million gold dragons to exchange for a month of stability in the border area was a perfect fit.

Currently, Lei Xiao still has 7.6 million gold dragons in cash.

Moreover, Lin was still seizing the time to secretly process a large number of ordinary valuables obtained from Wang Xi and Luo Ji.

In addition, if necessary, Lei Xiao can immediately hold a separate auction with the help of the Phytophaga Trade Fair or the city lord of any city under his rule to obtain a large amount of golden dragons.

Therefore, Lei Xiao will naturally not be short of money. Instead, he feels that using only these golden dragons is a great value for money.

"What?"

After hearing Lei Xiao's response without hesitation, Old Walter looked at each other in surprise with the other two great magicians again.

At this moment, the three of them couldn't help but have the same thought in their minds: "We must have met the sponsor. The commission... I'm afraid it's a little low."

Realizing this, the old faces of the three of them showed vague expressions of regret again.

Keenly aware of the psychological activities of the three old magicians in front of him, the smile on Lei Xiao's face grew stronger.

As soon as his mind moved, three dark gray small magic scrolls instantly appeared on his palm.

"This is...a fourth-level magic scroll with an absolute elemental defense barrier sealed?!"

Recognizing the precious object in Lei Xiao's hand at a glance, the three old magicians all gulped, their wrinkled old faces full of surprise.

You know, this kind of absolute elemental defense barrier that can completely resist the attacks of any fourth-level powerhouse or below within 10 seconds, but only a fifth-level magician with boundless mana can make it!

As long as they don't encounter a fifth-level powerhouse, it is an absolute life-saving trump card for these four-level magic system powerhouses who are not good at close combat!

In addition, its rarity and high value can be seen from the fact that at large auctions, gold dragons can easily be sold for more than seven figures, and they are often priced but not available!

"Your Excellency, guest, what are you..."

Old Walter asked cautiously, looking at the small scroll with brilliant colors in Lei Xiao's hand with a mixture of surprise and longing.
