Chapter 818: Chapter 530: Nine Dragon-slaying Heroes
Gently shaking the three Tier 4 Absolute Elemental Defense Barrier Scrolls in his hand, Leo Ray’s smile remained calm and tranquil.
The reason he brought out these three precious items was, of course, to further motivate the three old magicians.
It should be known that according to Ariel Watson, even at her coming-of-age ceremony, the precious royal treasures bestowed by the old king were only five in number. The value of these scrolls could be seen from this.
At the moment, in addition to the magical scrolls previously given to the powerful fighters, Leo Ray still had a hundred Tier 4 Absolute Elemental Defense Barrier Scrolls. Taking three of them out was naturally not a problem.
“Three masters, since you have already recognized the value, there is no need for me to say more about the preciousness of these three magical scrolls, right?”
Looking at the three old magicians in front of him, all of them eager and desperate, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, “This is our first cooperation, so these three scrolls should be considered as a special reward for the three of you.”
“Mr. Lane, are you…are you serious?!”
Upon hearing this, the three old magicians’ faces simultaneously displayed both surprise and delight, as they hurriedly approached Leo Ray, speaking in unison.
The scene resembled three old children who had lived for hundreds of years, crowding around to get their share of sugar cubes.
Needless to say, the combined value of these three precious magical scrolls was at least three million gold dragons, while the salary for this month was only 1.8 million gold dragons!
It can be said without exaggeration that they had never seen such a generous employer before!
It’s worth mentioning that because Leo Ray and the three old Walters were far away from other Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps, powerful fighters,
When they saw the three highly respected and usually reticent senior magicians acting like children wanting candy in front of this young man,
Those equally powerful Tier 3 Peak mercenaries couldn’t help but exchange glances.
They had never seen or heard of such a scene!
Including Ariel Watson, all the subordinates present, showed a smug expression on their faces.
No wonder he’s the lord, it seems that the task of recruiting powerful fighters from the Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps has been perfectly accomplished.
At the same time, seeing the effectiveness of his money, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows. Official source is NoveI~Fire.net
The reason he wanted to encourage the three of them was for one purpose—to further consolidate the loyalty of the Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps and prevent them from being bought by Saint Night Kingdom.
Although as Coldflame’s mercenary organization, the chances of the Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps betraying them are low, Leo Ray naturally needs 100% peace of mind.
After all, for him, a problem that can be solved with money is not a problem at all.
Of course, Leo Ray also clearly understood.
For these mercenaries who take people’s money and help them eliminate disasters, money is effective enough.
However, when dealing with opponents on the opposite side, things must be tailored to the situation and the individual. After all, once they kill him, all the wealth will naturally belong to the opponents.
On this point, Leo Ray understood better than anyone else.
Taking a deep breath, looking at the eager and anxious faces of the old magicians in front of him, Leo Ray replied, “That’s right, these three magical scrolls will be deposited at the Mercenary Guild in the city, along with the promised salary, and reflected in our employment contract.”
With a slight smile, Leo Ray continued, “Once you complete the mission, these will naturally all belong to you.”
“Understood, Mr. Lane, when do we start signing the contract? We are already prepared to go to our second homeland, the Mountain Fortress!”
Old Walter, with his long white beard blowing, had an excited expression on his face, and his eager expression almost pressed against Leo Ray’s face, apparently fearing that Leo Ray would change his mind.
Old Phil and Old Swill on one side also quickly nodded their heads in agreement.
“As for the matter of signing the employment contract, Princess has entrusted Master Gael with full responsibility,”
Looking at the opponent’s dense and white beard close at hand, Leo Ray waved his hand slightly and said, “Well, I wish us a happy cooperation.”
After speaking, Leo Ray gently raised his wine glass and toasted the other party.
“Happy cooperation! It’s our great honor to serve the Princess and Mr. Lane!”
On the other side, the three old magicians also quickly raised their wine glasses, their faces full of excitement and began to drink with gusto.
After that, under Leo Ray’s signal, the band and dancers returned to the stage and began their performances.
Moreover, the wandering poets who had not appeared before finally made their debut.
Accompanied by the beautiful melody of the lute and the catchy song of praise for the dragon-slaying heroes, the whole banquet reached its climax.
‘This is a tribute song in memory of the Nine Dragon-slaying Heroes.’
‘On that day, the people in darkness once again welcomed the dawn.’
And under the dawn, the figures of the nine stalwart heroes.’
‘The first hero is the magical advisor Rhea, with boundless power and a vast knowledge of magic.’
‘The second hero is the half-elf archer Qiana, who never misses.’
