Chapter 10

Two days later, we arrived at Sodinburgh, where we got the latest information from the contact point of the Mercenary Association.

Someone spotted Gage near the capital.For various reasons, especially the contagiousness of the magic plant, the king ordered the royal guards to arrest Gage, a possible parasite of the magic plant, and he must not be allowed to enter the capital.

Gage resisted arrest, was wounded, and later moved from the center of the fight to ten meters away in an instant.The crowd was shocked.

If Gage wasn't a plant parasite, he wouldn't have had to run away at all.After all, golden fighters are rare talents, and no king will order the killing of a golden fighter who is not treasonous at will.After catching him and imprisoning him for a few months, after checking whether his blood changes color, he can determine whether he is a parasite of magic plants.

It wouldn't have killed him in the first place.So when Reese and I talked about it, we were concerned, but not in a hurry.The decision of the matter is not now, but in a few months.Gage is an old mercenary with rich experience in dealing with things. As long as he has no problems, he should not resist the arrester.

But now he has not only resisted arrest, but also teleported in an unimaginable way. I have never heard of anyone who has this kind of superpower.

The experienced royal guards rushed to arrest him after the initial surprise.Gage was already injured, and he teleported several times, but unfortunately each time the distance was within ten meters, and each time was shorter.Finally got caught.

After hearing the news, Reese and I looked at each other, and our hearts sank. The fact that Gage was parasitized by the magic plant was probably true.Not to mention that he resisted arrest, but to say that teleportation is extremely suspicious.Although I have never heard of Mo Zhi having a similar ability, it may be that human beings do not know enough about Mo Zhi.Because of the great harm of the magic plant, it is always killed once it is discovered, and it is impossible to stay and study it slowly.

"So, is he being imprisoned now, or was...executed?" Allen asked the liaison officer of the Mercenary Association.

"According to the routine treatment, because his blood is currently red, he will be detained. Because of the ability to teleport, he will be locked up more tightly." Then the intelligence agent lowered his voice, "There is another one that is not The exact news, it is said that many people are very interested in the teleportation ability. In addition to the royal guard, there are churches and nobles. Whether he is a demon plant parasite or not, I am afraid that he will suffer a lot in prison."

That means torture?I raised my head in horror, and glanced at Rees.What if Gasth wasn't parasitized?Isn't that suffering for nothing?

"What does the Mercenary Association say?" Allen continued to ask.

"Before the people called by the association arrived, the royal guards had already captured Gage. So the association can't make the decision now. There is only one thing the association can guarantee. As long as Gage is not parasitized by the magic plant, the association guarantees that he can live Get out of prison. He won't be permanently imprisoned by those nobles because of that teleportation ability."

"Has the Mercenary Association reached an agreement with them?"

"Yes. They are allowed to torture Gage during the detention time. If it proves that Gage is not a demon plant parasite, they must release him unconditionally and give Gage a certain amount of compensation. If Gage is a demon plant parasite, the association will Let go of this."

Allen turned his head and asked Dacio, "What are you going to do now?"

Dacio pondered for a moment, "I'll go back to the capital and find a way, at least find a way to meet Gage and ask him what's going on. He's a member of my mercenary group, I can't let him be ignorant die."

Allen nodded, "He is being held by the Royal Guards, and I can't get involved. I don't want to go back to the capital either. Mai Ni and I will go back tomorrow."

Too.Without the reason for the teleportation, Dacio could have taken Gage back to the warrior mercenary regiment and imprisoned him.After all, magic plant parasites are like infectious patients, who wants to get close to them?That way, things are simple.If so, kill him, if not, Gage will not suffer in his own mercenary group.

But now because of that teleportation, the king, church, and nobles are all involved.Even the Mercenary Association can only reach an agreement with them, not to mention our small mercenary group.

Allen brought me here with the intention of assisting. Now that the left and right can't help, naturally I have to go back.

Dacio still has to stay to do some work for his mercenary group members.Probably to save Gage from suffering.I have vaguely heard people talk about the cruelty of those nobles, and those criminal laws are not much more benevolent than the ten tortures of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.Thinking about it makes people shudder.

Gage, why do you have to go to the capital?The capital city is not a good place, it is the world of the nobles, but ordinary people with some abilities, such as me who have learned fighting spirit and martial arts, do not want to stay in the capital city, it is better to stay elsewhere. The nobles are not so arrogant life is much easier.

Had it not been for Gage's approach to the capital, the king would not have sent the royal guard at all.Those who rounded him up would be masters from the Mercenary Association headed by Dasio and the others.

Even if the teleportation ability is exposed to everyone, it is a thousand times better in the hands of the Mercenary Association than in the hands of those nobles.

In the evening, the four of them were not in a high mood, so they ate dinner casually and then went back to rest.

Lying on the bed, I put my arms around Allen and asked him, "Can Dacio get Gage out?"

"His father is an earl with real power. It should be easier for Dacio to meet Gage. It is impossible to save him. Everyone wants to know the secret of the teleportation ability, and I am afraid that others will know. I don't know. How could an earl take someone away. There are people in the capital who are more powerful than his father."

I sighed, and then asked curiously: "You and Dacio are both nobles, why do you want to be a mercenary?"

Alan laughed, "We are the youngest sons of the family. We do not inherit the title or the family business. At most, we can share some money in the future. If we stay in the capital, we will be idle dudes. Dacio and I They are all golden fighters. They could have entered the Royal Guard, and they could become a minor official in the future with a small title or something. But Dacio thinks that is meaningless, has no ideals, no pursuit, no value, etc. , I took me out together and planned to start a career. Our two families have no objections. It is much better to be willing to do something than to eat, drink and have fun every day. They also gave us a sum of money as start-up capital. They didn't pay attention to a mercenary group, they just bought us a toy with money."

It turned out to be like this.But these aristocratic families are really rich, even talents like the Golden Warrior can be let go at will, and they don't care.

"But Dacio will have to pay a price when he goes back to beg his father this time."

"why?"

"Although his father doesn't care about him wandering around outside, he doesn't want Dacio to marry his personal maid. He hopes that Dacio can marry a noble lady or business lady with an inheritance, so that his son will not have property to live on when he dies. .”

It is also a father's painstaking effort.

"Didn't Dacio still have a mercenary group?"

Allen said with a smile: "The little money earned by the mercenary group is not considered money in the eyes of the nobles. The money they squandered in a night at the casino may be more than the money a head of the mercenary group earns in a year." .Do you think Daxio's father can not worry?"

"What should I do?"

"Whatever, Dacio has a way with his father. Which girl he marries is none of our business?"

"Yes", I nodded, I have never met Dacio's fiancée, and it really has nothing to do with me.Allen and I gloated over Dacio's misfortune.
