"I have been in this world for so long, and this is the first time I have met a boss who sends soldiers to his subordinates."
The female priest said enviously.
Zou Jie curled his lips slightly and said arrogantly: "There's nothing to envy, and it's not all good things.
Leading troops also requires responsibility, and I was told that if I committed any act such as intentionally committing suicide, I would be held accountable for dereliction of duty.
Of course, if he decides after evaluation that the sacrifice is necessary, then I won’t be responsible.
But one thing is pretty good. His Excellency Xu Lai said that if necessary, priority can be given to sacrificing public soldiers.
After all, in theory, my soldiers are just my guards and do not undertake work tasks. He has not prepared food and wages for these soldiers. ”
"Damn it, you are allowed to send his soldiers first. If the guild bosses know this, they will be furious."
Now it was not just the female priest, the heroes surrounding Zou Jie all looked envious.
"Otherwise, why can't those so-called presidents do it?
After only half a day of seeing each other, our handsome boy Zou has already integrated into the environment, and even Mr. Xu Lai immediately called him. ”
Zou Jie's face turned red. As a descendant, he felt weird using the traditional name of this world.
However, Xu Lai is already the king of a country and has not established any guild. Of course, calling him the president will not work. Calling him the boss will undoubtedly lower the other party's status.
That is to say, in front of these friends, he still wanted to save face, so he only talked about Mr. Xu Lai.
In fact, when Xu Lai summoned him, he, like everyone else, called him His Majesty the King.
It should be said or not, Xu Lai has adapted to this title after being called him for a long time.
However, as modern people who have arrived, Zou Jie and the others still feel a bit ashamed.
"Ahem, there's no need to say more about this. If you go to him later, you may not be any better than me." Zou Jie said.
"We would like to seek refuge with him, but it's a pity that he doesn't see us little minions in his eyes." The female pastor sighed again.
"That's right, Zou Jie, you are lucky, you were chosen right away."
Zou Jie frowned and said slightly dissatisfied: "I thought something was wrong at the time, so I asked you to go out and have a look.
It's you who are timid and unwilling to go out. ”
The man was scolded and immediately wanted to get angry, but seeing Zou Jie's unkind eyes, he finally endured it.
"Brother Zou, don't blame us. In that environment, once the devil discovered it, it would be a dead end.
Moreover, the few troops and horses we accumulated after working hard in this place for several years were suddenly snatched away by others.
Now I don’t know the specific situation, who dares to come forward?
You are brave, Brother Zou, but your first bite of crab was the most enjoyable. ”
Seeing that Zou Jie's expression softened, several others hurriedly helped:
"That's right, Brother Zou, don't be as knowledgeable as us. How can we not have the courage you have."
After being praised a few times, Zou Jie was secretly proud of himself, and could no longer control the smile on his face.
Seeing this appearance, others thought it was about the same, so they finally got down to business.
"Brother Zou, Xu has just arranged so many things. Will he be busy enough to come over at dawn?"
"That's right, Brother Zou, the brothers all hang out in Lion Heart City, so they are familiar with this area.
According to what Xu said, the surrounding cities were still controlled by demons, so he could only lead the flying troops to fly in first.
But he can fly, but we brothers can't fly. ”
"That's right, in the current environment, being trapped in Lion Heart City, even eating is a problem.
I'm glad now that most of the troops have been forcibly recruited, otherwise it would be a headache just to feed so many mouths.
The reserves of the buddies are already very tight. Brother Zou, please help me ask if the place named Xu is still recruiting people. ”
Zou Jie sneered and said: "I don't know if Mr. Xu Lai is short of people.
You wanted me to help introduce you, but you found the wrong person. I told you before, and I couldn't meet the person at the end of the day.
It was still evening, and His Excellency Xu Lai summoned me just once.
Moreover, I have only been working there for one day, so I really don’t have the dignity to help introduce them.
But if you really have no food to eat, I have a few options. ”
"Ahem, Brother Zou, why don't you let the brothers work under you?
It's not that the brothers are unhappy, but as you tell me, only ordinary security officers will be left. We can't mix with those ordinary people. ”
Zou Jie glanced around and saw that these heroes all looked uninterested. He couldn't help but snorted:
"Hmph, my temple is small and can't accommodate so many Bodhisattvas.
I really need someone to help me. If you are willing to stay and help me, I can help get some treatment.
For those who are unwilling to help me, for the sake of being from the same hometown, I will tell you a few ways.
Now Mr. Xu Lai needs someone to help him clean up those hidden demons.
You don’t have to be afraid. If you can kill those demons, you can come over with the demon heads to claim the reward.
If they can't be killed, recording the gathering place of demons will be a great achievement, and the angels will clean it up when the time comes.
The more demons are cleared out, the more rewards the person who registers the information will receive.
If you are more diligent, just by registering the information, you and your generals will not have to worry about food and drink.
As for the soldiers and horses in your hands, I have two suggestions. One is to sell them directly to Lord Xu Lai.
Your Excellency Xu Lai has promised that he is willing to purchase you at twice your original recruitment price.
On the other hand, Your Excellency Xu Lai also has several important errands, and the rewards are very good. ”
"What errand? What reward?"
Before Zou Jie could finish his words, someone asked him.
Zou Jie coughed and said: "Your Excellency Xu Lai is not worried about the old nobles in Lion Heart City. He is worried that they will abscond with money or incite public opinion.
You also know that Mr. Xu Lai has no manpower available for the time being.
Therefore, he needs some people who are not involved with these old nobles to help him monitor this group of people.
His Excellency Xu Lai promised that as long as these people did not escape from Lion Heart City, he would wait for his troops to come and take over.
Those who prevent these people from escaping can participate in the division of their property, and he guarantees that everyone will have a share.
And if these people don't have much property, he will pay to make up for the shortfall.
Secondly, even if these people do not abscond, the person responsible for surveillance will eventually receive a huge reward of no less than 100,000 gold.
Although Mr. Xu Lai didn't tell me how much he could share, he would make up for it.
But think about it, even the most ordinary surveillance can get a reward of at least 100,000 gold. Do I need to say more about the rest? ”
For a large order of 100,000 gold coins, even when Lion Heart City was at its most prosperous, it would take several weeks to place an order. Moreover, if it is just surveillance, the level of danger is actually not too high.
Although the people Xu Lai wants to monitor are all old nobles, only half of them have specialized abilities at most.
Although they still have guards around them, they may be very capable of fighting alone.
But after experiencing the baptism of the devil, the number of guards around these old nobles has been the lowest in history.
Now that each of them has mastered the strength of at least 5 or 60 recruited soldiers, there is no need to be too afraid even if they are discovered.
There was no mercenary guild in the destroyed city, and Xu Lai could only issue missions through this method of communication.
Although these advent heroes have never dealt with Xu Lai, they still trust Xu Lai and Zou Jie.
In their eyes, Xu Lai, who carries thousands of griffins and hundreds of angels with him, is a super big shot.
Such a big shot shouldn't be able to take advantage of a few of their minions for fun.
The most important thing is that they are willing to do what Xu Lai asked them to do.
In a place like Lion Heart City, it is inevitable for a foreigner with no background and little strength to be bullied by the locals.
I had no strength before, so I could only swallow it in my stomach no matter how angry I got.
It's different now, everyone is in trouble, but they have Xu Lai to support them, but the old nobles can't find helpers.
After several heroes accepted the mission and dispersed, the only two people present were the female priest and Zou Jie.
Their respective generals, who happened to be a man and a woman, were quietly guarding behind them.
"Brother Zou, do you have any other tasks here?
As you know, little sister, I don’t have much ambition or courage.
I just want to live a stable life in peace, fighting and killing, but my little sister really can't adapt to it. ”
"Ahem, that's true, but I have to give in to my sister and be my deputy.
Your Excellency, Xu Lai, doesn't want to arrange work for those civilians? You will do just that tomorrow morning.
You still have manpower here, and you can maintain order by the way. If it's too busy, I'll ask Xiao Yao to help you. ”
"No problem, leave it to me."
Just when Xu Lai gathered all the people in the square and gave a passionate speech.
As expected, many sneaky figures appeared in Holy Angel City.
Kerrigan not only confiscated the entire palace, but also confiscated all the nobles, wealthy people, even the chamber of commerce and warehouses in Lionheart City.
Whatever he liked, needed, or was valuable was either taken into his space ring or moved to Holy Angel City.
Many of the gold mountains worth hundreds of millions of gold coins that Xu Lai took away came from those powerful families.
Not only Devin of the McCoy family is plotting the treasure house, but the monkeys who were killed by Xu Lai to scare the monkeys are also plotting the treasure house.
They didn't even have to bother looking, because Xu Lai had already found a place for them.
Seeing that building guarded by layers of angels, even a fool would know that there is a treasure house there, let alone these old birds.
Even though they knew Xu Lai was in the square, these thieves were still cautious.
Just kidding, if any angel here is alerted, the other party can easily destroy them all.
As soon as they entered Holy Angel City, these thieves started using their invisibility skills, hiding themselves completely and using magic to block the sound of footsteps and smell.
But since Xu Lai knew that someone would come to steal the treasure, why didn't he make any preparations?
Not only did he place several mine traps at the entrance of the warehouse, but he also placed many investigative eyes and true seeing eyes in Holy Angel City.
Xu Lai had sensed these people as early as they appeared in Holy Angel City, but he just didn't have time to deal with them at that time.
Although he didn't have time, he could send his most trusted general.
These thieves who sneaked into Holy Angel City are indeed veterans.
They did not act blindly, but first released many rats.
These mice come in different colors and have very different functions.
The red one is called a trap rat, and is enchanted with trap identification and simple trap breaking techniques, as well as trap breaking techniques.
Machine rats have the ability to automatically identify traps, and even if they are unable to dismantle overly complicated traps, they can trigger the trap in advance through the self-destruction device in their bodies.
The blue one is called a treasure-hunting mouse, and it is enchanted with skills such as earth drilling, treasure hunting, and lock-picking.
The last one is gray and is called the Scout Rat.
Detector rats are about the same size as regular rats and can be difficult to spot among other rats.
Moreover, they possess camouflage, invisibility and the ability to recognize invisibility, and are the eyes of treasure thieves.
Three kinds of mice went out to search around. The treasure-seeking mouse used the underground technique to quietly enter the warehouse under the noses of the angels.
A warehouse full of treasures, equipment, and resources immediately made these treasure thieves dizzy.
But just as the thieves were drooling at the sight, the machine rat discovered the mine that Xu Lai had placed at the door.
The minefields are extremely dense. Unless you fly over them, no matter how strong your jumping ability is, you will not be able to cross the minefields.
In addition, the reconnaissance team also discovered a large number of invisible investigative eyes and true seeing eyes.
This scene made the thieves break into cold sweat with fear.
"We must have been discovered! We just passed under the eyelids of the True Seeing Eye."
The leader of the thieves snorted coldly: "With so many eyes of true seeing and eyes of investigation, even senior mages can't take care of them.
Not to mention that the man named Xu is not even here. How can he, a knight, no matter how well-equipped he is, be able to monitor so many investigative eyes from several kilometers away? ”
When the others heard this, they all thought it made sense and were not in a hurry to retreat. Instead, they controlled the scout rats to destroy the Eye of True Seeing.
They are all invisibility, and the Eye of Detection cannot see them. Only the Eye of True Sight poses a threat to them.
However, they did not dare to destroy too much and only destroyed the Eye of True Seeing on the only way.
After all, these eyes are spiritually connected to their owners.
If Xu Lai hadn't arranged too many things, no matter how many thieves deduced, they couldn't find a road with a blind spot.
In desperation, they could only risk destroying these eyes of true seeing.
Now they just hope that with such a long distance, Xu Lai will ignore the message that the Eye of True Sight is disconnected.
But just when the thieves destroyed the true sight that enveloped them.
Above their heads, an angel slowly flew over.
Xu Lai possesses the True Sight Gem, but he gave this True Sight Gem to Archangel Elvi early on. (End of chapter)
