Chapter 273 Mercenaries

Julian didn't really care much about being 'tricked' by the man. Just like the man said, there are a lot of ghost fruits here, and the benefits of using the tree of life seeds to heal the wounds on the soul really outweigh the benefits.

The follow-up man was probably worried that his actions would anger Julian, so he carefully explained to him that the space inside the cultivator comes from a small fragmented world. After so many years, the energy of the fragmented world has been consumed. 300 years will be completely broken.

But after having the tree of life, it will be completely different. The tree of life can complement the fragmented world. If Julian is particularly lucky, by chance, the cultivator may completely form a complete small world, and the tree of life is also proud Evolved into the legendary world tree.

Of course, this chance is very small, but in general, planting the tree of life into cultivators will definitely do more good than harm.

"Where can I buy ghost fruit?" Julian asked.

The man was about to say something, but suddenly he heard a loud commotion from outside. The two carefully distinguished, Julian's face changed suddenly, and even the man showed a helpless expression.

The people outside were loudly discussing the news that just came in. It seems that there is something wrong with the production area of ​​the ghost fruit. The production of this batch of ghost fruit has been greatly affected. Merchants in the city have already rushed Crazy, there are almost no ordinary ghost fruits on the market, let alone those high-quality ghost fruits.

The man looked at Julian's livid face, and scratched his head in distress: "This... this is an accident."

Julian took several deep breaths in a row before calming down, and said lightly, "I know."

The man thought for a while, and although this matter had nothing to do with them, he still felt a little bit sorry, so he simply said, "Wait a minute, I'll go out and have a look." After speaking, he disappeared.

After a while, the man came back with a very dignified expression.

Julian's heart moved: "What?"

"The situation is not right." The man frowned and thought about something, "If there is something wrong with this batch of ghost fruits, at worst, wait for the next batch, but what I see now is that those few big merchants are buying The scattered ghost fruits don't feel like they are meant to make up for the order, but rather...they won't be able to harvest any more ghost fruits in the future."

Julian was startled, "Can I get more detailed information?" He is not familiar with the place here, so he can only temporarily rely on the man in front of him.

"Don't be in a hurry." The man reassured: "This matter is definitely not easy. I will take you to find a place to rest first. You also change into suitable clothes and wait for my news."

Julian followed him to the backyard of the store. The area was not big. Fortunately, Julian was not picky. The man pointed him to a room, and he went in with Owen on his back.

After the man left, he put Owen on the bed and probed his perception into the cultivator.

As the man said, the space inside the cultivator has changed, expanding from the original small bag to a large piece of cultivated farmland.

There is also a small wooden house on one side of the farmland. The outside of the wooden house is wrapped with vines, and there are simple and elegant flowers blooming on the window frame. Inside the house, there are all kinds of beds and cabinets, so you can live directly.

Julian thought for a while, went out and caught a bug in the yard and stuffed it into the space.After a few breaths, he took it out, and the bug was still alive and well, and then he conducted an experiment with a mouse to confirm that this space was harmless to living people, and then put Owen on the bed in the cabin.

When carrying Owen on his back, he was always worried that a battle would break out, and he was afraid that it would affect Owen. Now that he has a cultivator, his worries have been completely solved.

No wonder the portable space is a must-have golden finger for the protagonists of many novels, it is so convenient.

Julian thought happily.

After waiting for another half day, the man finally came back.

Until now, Julian doesn't know the man's name, and the other party doesn't seem to want to introduce himself. The two sides have maintained this tacit understanding. As long as Julian walks out of this shop, the two are completely strangers .

"The situation is not very good. I went to inquire about it. I don't know where an evil eye came from and occupied the place where the ghost fruit tree grows. The land was polluted by the breath of the evil eye. A large number of fruit trees died. Even if it is solved now Without the evil eye, I am afraid that no ghost fruit will mature in a short time.

Xieyan is a kind of hell creature, a kind of demon, and it is quite a powerful race. They like to live in places where Yin energy gathers. From a certain point of view, they are more like undead creatures than demon creatures, so they are more like undead creatures than demon creatures, so they are in the hell plane. In the confrontation with the undead plane, they are always the most active group.

The ghost fruit tree also happens to be a plant that likes yin, so it is quite normal for the evil eye to occupy the territory of the ghost fruit tree. Even in the past, there were no other races that like yin to seize the territory there, but they were all taken by Canaigang. The guard was beaten away, but this time the evil eye was more powerful, and the guard was beaten away. The final result was that the ghost fruit tree was brutally murdered. If the evil eye is not driven away, after a while, when the evil eye is exhausted That piece of yin energy will not be able to be planted in the future.

Seeing that his expression was not good, the man comforted him, "Don't worry, the city lord here is quite responsible, and he will soon unite with several major forces to work together to get rid of that evil eye."

Julian nodded, and he also understood that since the people in Canai Port regard the ghost fruit tree as their specialty, they would definitely not let that evil eye live like this, but the problem he considered was, because of the appearance of this evil eye, the market The price of the ghost fruit on the Internet will definitely increase, and if it's just the price increase, it's fine. What he worries most is that he can't buy high-grade ghost fruit or that the quantity of ordinary ghost fruit is not enough.

It is true that the soul fruit can heal the tearing of the soul, but it also depends on the type. For ordinary injuries, such as the unlucky paladin at that time, an ordinary soul fruit is enough, but Owen’s injury is too serious. It can't make up for his damage at all, even if it is the best ghost fruit, Julian can't guarantee how much it can heal.

Fortunately, there are no side effects after taking the ghost fruit. If the injury is serious, you only need to eat a few more to get relief, but now there are no ghost fruits on the market. After thinking about it, he thought that he had to go to the ghost fruit forest Just take a look, and if you're lucky, you might be able to get some high-quality top-notch items.

Julian asked if it was possible to buy high-quality ghost fruit on the market, and the answer given by the man was: basically impossible.

However, he gave a similar choice to Julian. He told Julian that because the strength of the evil eye had reached the legendary level, and no one knew whether the evil eye was living alone or with a whole group, so except In addition to those masters, they are still recruiting a large number of people to deal with the possible low-level evil eyes.

Because the rewards given are very generous, many people have signed up. There are even mercenaries from other cities who heard the news and are rushing here, so the unfamiliar face of Julian is completely mixed in.

What to do when he gets there is entirely up to him.

After Julian thanked the man, he left. Following the man's guidance, he came to the Mercenary Association in Canai Port. After filling out a simple question and answer sheet, he got a mercenary badge.

Through this badge, it can be used to hand over tasks. It can be seen that there are not a few humans who were involved in the land abandoned by the gods. The rules and regulations here are almost the same as those of the mercenary association outside.

Holding the badge and wandering around the Mercenary Association, Julian quickly found his target.

The hall of the association was bustling with people, some were rushing to hand in tasks, some were spanking and chatting, but most of the topics discussed were about the ghost fruit forest.

One side of the association is a counter for inquiring about matters and handing over tasks, while on the other side there are more than a dozen tables, and there is a small bar in the corner, which seems to be a place for mercenaries to rest or A place to talk to employers.

Julian overheard three mercenaries in the corner discussing the issue of recruiting manpower. Judging from what they said, it seemed that they had already accepted a mission. The mission was not dangerous. Withdrew from their squad, plotted against them while leaving, and gave their captain a debilitating poison. This poison is not fatal, and does not even require an antidote, as long as you lie on the bed for half a month It will be fine, but now is the period when they are going to perform their missions. If they delay the mission, the liquidated damages will be a lot of money, and they can't afford it at all.

How excited I was to receive a high-profit mission at the beginning, how regretful I am now, everyone in the team knew that they were cheated, but except for the magician, no one quit, but actively looked for a way.

Now, those three people were observing the mercenaries who came and went, because the news had just spread, and those mercenaries from the nearby cities didn't come, so looking at those familiar faces, the three people began to comment in a low voice.

"Aiya's strength is pretty good." Said the man wearing tight leather armor with a lively expression.

"It's not bad, but you don't want to look at it. Aiya is a member of the fire wolf team. It is said that she has already made an engagement with the captain of the fire wolf. Why should she come to us?" The girl who spoke was very beautiful. , has a kind of intellectual beauty, and speaks clearly, pointing out the shortcomings of lively men.

Another man with a relatively stocky appearance and a very simple and honest appearance grinned: "Don't consider those who have a team. Recently, they probably already have owners. I think we still have to choose those solo travelers."

The lively man slammed his head on the table and said resentfully: "A lone traveler must either be strong, or have bad character. Our team can't afford the former, and the latter... Can you rest assured that you will be recruited? What if there is another Fran?" strange……"

"Shut up! Don't mention that scumbag!" the intellectual beauty yelled sharply.

The lively man knew that he had said something wrong, so he quickly shut up. The simple and honest man patted the intellectual girl on the shoulder: "Shara, that matter has nothing to do with you. You don't need to criticize yourself."

The intellectual girl didn't speak, but she obviously didn't listen.

The simple and honest man is also helpless, this matter is a bad debt, and only time can heal the trauma in her heart.

Julian listened for a while, made a decision in his heart, and walked over slowly, attracting the attention of these people.

"Hello, I heard that you are recruiting?" Julian looked at them and slowly showed a kind smile.

Owen Diary:

... not open Sen!I was stuffed into a bag, and I couldn't get close to Julian!
