[West Fantasy] The noble lady who was divorced became rich

"Damn it, it's the first time I've carried the flag of the regular army to work as a mercenary." A mercenary from Transia pressed his neck against the flagpole, and then opened a bottle of unlabeled spirits: "You When will the bastards who said Cantero attack?"

Almost everyone in their team of less than 30 people carried an Obstar military flag, and quite a few even held three or four military flags, like a sponge filled with flags.

"Don't play it dead, if Cantero's army really comes, we will have to pack up and run away." A very young mercenary sarcastically said: "The Duchess of Brittania asked us to take Why are there so many flags? Are they being used as live targets for the Obstar army?"

"Should... no!" The old mercenary thought about the scene where they were besieged by Cantero's army, and couldn't help shivering: "The Duchess of Brittania looks weak, she should Not so cruel!"

Unexpectedly, the mercenary who satirized him continued to pour cold water on him: "Have you heard of the queen in the hive?"

"What?"

"It's the queen bees among bees. They are under the protection of worker bees all their lives, but in the larval stage, they are no different from ordinary worker bees." The young mercenary had a typical Cantero-like appearance, with a shallow The wheat-colored skin is reminiscent of thick honey, and it is particularly eye-catching among the tall and burly northerners, which also attracts a lot of discriminating eyes, and finally solved those who tried to bully him with his fist : "If a lucky queen bee candidate is arranged to live in the queen bee of the hive, it may become the leader of the worker bees. It's just that there are more than one queen bees in the hive, and the queen bee that breaks out of the chrysalis first will order to be killed. The queen bee whose chrysalis has not broken will die, while the queen who has broken her chrysalis will fight to the death."

The young mercenary was wiping his sharp blade, and his expressionless expression made people feel stressed: "The mission of the worker bees is to work for the queen bee, and the mission of the queen bee is to maintain her status as king - even in the division When you are a bee, you will not easily recognize them."

"Damn it, I haven't read a book, so speak human words to me." The old mercenary who was stunned for a moment said angrily.

"In other words, there is a deadly battle between the Duchess of Britannia and the King of Cantero." The young mercenary sighed, feeling that his move to join the mercenary group might not be a good move.

"Then we are worker bees working for the queen bee?"

"No, our status is worse than that of worker bees."

The young mercenary glanced at his team and lamented that the old, weak, sick, disabled and idiots were obviously delivering food to them: "Do you think the soldiers hired with money should be cherished?"

"..."

"If the people hiding here are Aquiques, Bretanians, or even the severely injured Obsidas, the Duchess of Britannia will consider the public opinion after she uses regular soldiers as bait , and the issue of pensions, but mercenaries are a one-shot deal." The young man said meaningfully: "Who do you think will give pensions to mercenaries? Worried that mercenaries will die on the battlefield?"

As the saying goes, swords have no eyes. Since mercenaries are paid what can be called huge profits, they should not think about the welfare and safety of the regular army.

I am afraid that the decision-makers of the mercenaries are also aware of the temperament of the Duchess of Brittania and the danger of this mission, so they sent such a team that everyone does not love.

It is estimated that Grand Duchess Ajikui is also aware of this, so she invites them to the palace to attend the banquet, so as to reduce their vigilance.

This is really...

Creepy.

"Then, can we survive?" A frightened mercenary hurriedly asked: "If we escape now, we will be in a situation where everyone will be beaten."

After all, the circle of mercenaries is only that big, and the team they belong to is quite famous among mercenaries, so deserters will undoubtedly end up living their lives in disgrace, and may even be killed by scavengers because of their career as mercenaries. hunted down.

When the mercenary who was asked looked up, he saw seven or eight big men all looking at him with "you are the last hope".

"...I don't know if we can go back alive, but judging by the attitude of the Duchess of Brittania, it seems that we will not let us die easily." The young mercenary stared at the flag in his hand, and seemed to understand Brittany. The meaning of the Duchess of Nia: "If those Cantero people regard us as the Obstar army, maybe they won't attack easily."

"That..., can we really be called a big army?" the old mercenary asked suspiciously.

"It depends on which side the gods are on." The young mercenary put away his sharp blade and inserted the pile of flags into the soil: "With such a long distance, they don't know whether there are people or ghosts behind the flags."

The old mercenary looked along the opponent's line of sight, only to see the flags that he regarded as cumbersome.

"If this thing is used well, it will definitely generate the power of thousands of troops." After finishing speaking, the young mercenary rolled up his sleeves, as if preparing for the layout of the battlefield.

When other people saw this, they also wanted to insert the flag into the geography, but they were stopped by the young mercenary: "Don't put them together, and put a few flags farther away."

"Oh!"

The people headed by the old mercenary hurriedly followed the order of this junior, and planted the flag in other places, so that people could see from a distance that there were three or 4000 Obsta army guarding here.

After everything was over, the old mercenary breathed a sigh of relief, and then the two brothers patted the younger generation on the shoulders, and said gratefully: "We Transcians are all grateful. Thank you so much for the man who repaid you, from now on, you and I will be life-long buddies."

"...You don't have to, buddy, it's just that I should leave the mercenary army after this morning." The young mercenary was not used to this kind of intimacy, so he sideways avoided the old mercenary's arm, and said calmly: "We are all outcasts in the team, so try to survive as long as possible!"

"If you survive, the sun will rise as usual, and the gold will return to your pocket." The old mercenary also realized that he had a bad attitude before, so he pinched his nose pretending nothing happened, watching the younger generation in the sun, Like a gold-plated side face: "By the way, kid, what's your name?"

Because he wasn't from the North, they used to call him "Cantero's bastard," or "Southern bastard."

"Ariana." If the old mercenary didn't ask suddenly, the young mercenary would have almost forgotten his name.

"It doesn't sound like a Cantero man." The old mercenary muttered, and then bent down under the scout's gesture, waiting for the coming Cantero army.
