Chapter 100 The strange mercenary group

.

"I sincerely apologize to both of you for your companions' rudeness, and I hope the Lord will not be surprised."

The beast-eared man in front of him saluted Yi Ming and Mei Yali respectfully, and carefully concealed his curious look at Mei Yali's eyes when he raised his head. Since the other party was so good, Yi Ming did not intend to pursue anything. However, the beast-eared man obviously did not intend to leave immediately. He smiled first, then took two steps back to show enough respect before he spoke.

"But I sincerely hope that you two will not make a decision in such a hurry. We are indeed from the Wasteland Country. But we are not hostile. You can ask casually that our Beast Soul Mercenary Group has a very good reputation. It has never done anything that violates human laws, nor has it been on the wanted list of various countries. In fact, Geer is a very good person, but because of the emergency, he has a little irritated temper......"

"So, what's going on?"

Yi Ming asked patiently that if he had been before, he would not have dealt with such a small matter, after all, it had nothing to do with him. But now it was not possible. He really regretted that he had such a bad idea to lead the tiger out of the mountain. He still had to take on the obligations of the lord until now, and he was worried about these boring things that he usually thought were boring. If it were Marien, there might be a better way. But Yi Ming was not Marien after all, so naturally he could not do it like her.

"Ah... that's it."

The orc man in the lead seemed surprised by Yi Ming's attitude, and he was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly answered.

"In fact, our mercenary group just wanted to go deep into the Undead Forest... Almost no one on the continent didn't know the changes in the Undead Forest, but there were not many people who dared to come here to adventure. So we planned to find some lost props in the ancient kingdom before everyone... It was probably that's the case. But it was a pity. The person who sold our map obviously failed our trust, so we got lost in this forest, and one of our companions was also lost. All this happened to Geer. So I hope you can forgive his rudeness. Of course, you can also imagine that when we found that there were people living here, we were really excited, but... how to say, there were some...."

"Have your companions lost?"

Yi Ming looked at the adventurers behind him with curiosity and found that it was indeed abnormal. One of them had two long sharp corners, and another walked around with his thick tail. In short, these people who looked like humans always had a few more strange parts on them than others.

"That's right, so we want to come here to ask if anyone has seen my companion..."

The beast-eared man only said half of his words. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly. Yi Ming didn't know that the status of orcs on this continent is quite low. Because they are not born like humans, ordinary people are also quite discriminatory to them. Those who are bulky can only be slaves, and those born beautiful races will be regarded as concubines or playthings of rich people. Of course, orcs are not naturally soft. Even if cats and tigers are different, they are also cats, not to mention that rabbits even bite people when they are anxious.

So many years ago, the orcs finally united and fought against the atrocities of humanity. They won a certain degree of victory. But the matter was not finished. As a race that has been enslaved by humans for hundreds of years, many orcs and humans have a blood and tears debt. So when they won, those humans also suffered a catastrophe.

The young and strong men were cruelly torn apart and fed the dogs, while the young and beautiful girls were captured by the orc coalition and humiliated again and again until they died. For them, this was a natural revenge, and normal did not require any reason at all. For humans, they were also unwilling to sit and wait for death. In the end, the war developed to an astonishing point. Both sides did not need prisoners of war, and any surrendered enemy was also killed without mercy. The hatred began to grow bigger and bigger in the way of a snowball, and eventually caused chaos on the entire continent.

Someone always needs to clean up the mess.

After that, a group of mercenaries mixed with humans and orcs showed their strength in the war. At this time, the Abyss Demon King happened to invade the continent. In the face of the overwhelming fear and power he brought, humans and orcs were forced to abandon hatred. After each lost a lot of combat power, they finally drove the Demon Lord back. The orcs, who were also seriously injured, returned to the barbaric wasteland, where they were born, and established a new country. The war between humans and orcs came to an end.

But even so, the resentment has not been eliminated. Just as every human parent will use "If you make trouble, let the orcs catch you and eat you!" to scare the children, the orcs have been using "If you make trouble, you will sell you to human slave traders!" to scold their descendants. This kind of intimidation that seems very naive at first glance has a considerable effect, especially when their children grow up, this kind of secret hostility and dissatisfaction is still insisting on confrontation. So when Geer wants to confront each other.

The residents here spoke a bit rude when they asked questions, but these humans also had some disgust and dissatisfaction with the orcs, and they became quarrels. Although the orcs are no longer able to be traded in the human world as before, their status is still similar to slaves. Those beautiful orcs will also be abducted to other people with this need, but their techniques have been much more concealed, at least they will not tie a rope and bribe them out and yell the price as before.

Yi Ming did not answer the man's question, but secretly glanced at the people around him and found that they all had a little excited expression, but they didn't mean to pay special attention. He originally wanted to ask whether the mercenary group broke into other countries' territory without authorization was considered an infringement. Now it seems that the concept of territory in this world seems to be far weaker than he imagined. Adventure teams without passports and without proof can actually appear in such places... But if there is really a problem, they should not be so natural.

"What are your companions' characteristics?"

"Have the same ears as me and the same tail..."

So Yi Ming raised a hand and signaled that the surroundings were quiet, and then he closed his eyes.

Everything around has changed.

For Yi Ming, color has disappeared from its original meaning of existence. In front of him, there are only infinite numbers and structural forms. The same is true for the man in front of him. Yi Ming quickly recorded the rough structural forms of his ears and tail, and then all the values ​​around him were instantly cleared, and any inconsistent parts were eliminated, leaving only similar forms, and leaving them to Yi Ming for judgment.

Looking at Yi Ming's inexplicable movements, everyone was also a little surprised. The man seemed to want to say something, but Meyari signaled him to be quiet with his eyes, so he had to swallow the words he was about to say back to his stomach again.

Yi Ming opened his eyes.

"The person you are looking for is under the shirt tree by the lake in the west. I personally recommend you to speed up because the lady seems to be injured."

Yi Ming said to the man calmly, then nodded at him, and then continued to scatter their steps with Meallie.

"Boss. What the hell is this little devil doing? How did he know..."

The strong man leaned over, but was pushed away by the beast-eared man.

"You all heard it, beside the lake to the west, under the shirt tree! Let's go!!"

(You are so kind.)

Mei Yali gently held Yi Ming's arm and held an umbrella to sarcastically. Yi Ming scratched his head in distress and showed a helpless smile.

"There's no way, are we the temporary lords here anyway... Isn't it right to do this?"

(It's generally OK. But you should let them feel the glory and charity of the empire. Maybe these mercenaries can be useful here... This is Marian's original words, and it's useless to glare at me.)

"I can't do it."

Yiming shook his head. What was Marian's mind thinking?

"But I don't need to do the same thing as her, otherwise... I'm really curious how Marien cured these people?"

"Because I'm here."

Alinoa came out of nowhere. She was wearing armor and greeted Yiming and looked at Meyerly, with a hint of embarrassment. I had heard about Marian. Miss Meyerly, I didn't expect you to be able to... Although I knew Marian was very talented, just listening to one song could help her break through the magician's biggest bottleneck. Is your violin a magic weapon?"

"It's just a simple performance. Mayalie likes to pass the time when she's bored. If you want to listen, you can come to listen next time if you have time."

"this……………"

Hearing Yi Ming's disapproval of answer, Elinoa stayed in place.

She didn't know what the performance that could make Marian advance to the singing field was, but even what she said was vaguely, it was even more confusing. Alinoa's personality was extremely serious, not to mention that the level of the musical instruments on this continent was too low. In this case, Alinoa had already guessed whether Mealley had obtained the props of the Magic Spirit, or that she herself was the messenger of the Magic Spirit, and that instrument called the violin was a magical magical instrument... She even believed that such a performance was definitely not qualified for everyone to hear. Maybe Marian had this qualification at that time...

So when Elinoa heard Yiming say "If you have time, come and be an audience", Elinoa's brain turned blank in an instant and she stood there blankly.

"What's wrong?"

(I don't know...) Looking at Alinoa's dumb look, Yi Ming reached out to shake her eyes, and then Alinoa came back to her senses in surprise and jumped back subconsciously.

"I, I can really……?

"Just just a pastime, why bother to be so serious?"

Yiming felt that Elinoa's attitude was stranger, but he didn't think much about it. Elinoa stared at Meali with anxious and inquiring eyes. After receiving Meali's nod, she saluted solemnly.

"Then, I'm sorry, I'll say goodbye first. I'm going to go back and take a shower and then change my clothes. I'm definitely not allowed to listen to Miss Mayalie's performance like this..."

As she said that, she immediately turned around. Before Yiming could call her, Alinoa's figure disappeared into the crowd on the street.

(It's not that I'm going to participate in a dance, is it necessary to be so anxious?)

"prom?"

Yi Ming's eyes rolled.

"Mayalie, why don't you think this way? It's time for us to hold a dance in the castle..."

(Then I played the violin next to me, and are you dancing with other girls?)

Mei Yali quickly caught Yi Ming's words, which made him unable to sustain for a while.

"Okay, I surrender."

Still an apology without sincerity, but Mealie was obviously used to it.

And at this moment, a loud roar suddenly came over. It seemed as if a giant dragon was roaring, and Mealie could not help but cover her ears.
