Chapter 676: Sikong Is Used To It

Soon the mercenary guild was found near the street.

Contrary to what they had imagined, it appeared to be a rather elaborate three-story marble building filled with people.

Judging from their clothes and weapons, they were obviously mercenaries, and they had seen several familiar faces in the Kingdom of Castile before.

"Have you come to the guild yet?"

As soon as he entered the building, a girl in overalls greeted her with a smile.

Lin Qing nodded, and explained kindly while pointing to the desk in front of her.

"You should go there and fill out the form."

Lin Qing went to the desk according to the girl's instructions, and he sat in an empty place.

When he was seated, a middle-aged man with a knife wound on his face handed him a piece of paper.

"fill in the blank."

After filling out the paper and handing it over, the middle-aged man looked at the handed-in document with great interest.

"Red wolf mercenaries, a total of thirty-two members, ten expert-level mercenaries?"

In fact, he is a knight above the intermediate level. In order not to attract attention, he hides his strength.

But even if it is, the middle-aged man looks very carefully.

"Noble, is this the first time I've heard the name of this mercenary group?"

"Fallen nobleman."

But the middle-aged man didn't believe Lin Qing.

What kind of fallen nobleman would carry ten master knights with him?

"It seems that they want to fight for foreign nobles and gain experience.

In fact, this is something Sikong is used to in this day and age.

On that day, about one knight and many nobles disguised themselves as mercenaries.

Their purpose is to gain money or experience in a foreign land that is going through war.

A few people intervened for political purposes, but that was not the guild's focus.

The mercenary is where they don't ask much.

"The registration fee is three thousand pesos."

Hearing the man's words, Lin Qing was a little surprised.

"Three thousand pesos? Isn't that too much for a mercenary?"

"Not at all excessive."

When Lin Qing paid the registration fee and returned to the accommodation, the knights sent to the Information Guild had already returned.

"Do you know anything about the new Pope`?"

"Yes, the basic information is the same as what I heard in our manor.

"Yes? Activities outside? This is the most important thing right now. First, we need to see if Reina can be brought out."

"Two months ago, after the miracle in the central square, no one saw her face."

"In that case, do you want to sneak into the palace?"

The guards at the pope's residence were overcrowded.

Sneaking in through guards like this is no easy feat, and if they get caught, they're screwed.

They will have to face thousands of troops and hundreds of titans.

Among them, the strongest in the mainland are called paladins, and several are sword masters.

Even if there are several titans in the subspace bracelet, it is impossible to compete with them.

"Well, it's not easy.

I didn't expect that their actions would cause such a big problem at the beginning.

Lin Qing shook his head and asked about the political situation of the Holy Empire.

He had received a brief report from Argos, where intelligence provided them with last-minute information.

"Three areas are currently in rebellion..."

In the northeast of the empire, Saxony was witnessing an uprising against the Lidin faction, Conrad in the southeast and Wrangell in the west.

Some ambitious aristocrats or the small seven tribes of Kassel declared that they would not recognize the new Pope.

Archbishop Liding sent an army to defeat them, and the initial suppression failed due to the incompetence of the commander and the unexpectedly strong rebels.

"The rest of the empire is still quiet, but the Conrad is a problem."

"Conrad?"

"The biggest granary of the Holy Empire is the prince and the archbishop. Zhang De declared independence some time ago, which is why Li Ding seems to be busy dealing with the rebels."

It is said that Archbishop Ferried has more than 50,000 troops and 300 knights under him, and the minor nobles also joined in, and his power has also increased dramatically.

"Good job, it's too late now, get some rest and find out more tomorrow."

Under Lin Qing's order, the knights returned to their rooms to rest.

The next day, Lin Qing left the residence alone.

Disguised as a pilgrim, he spent hours looking around the palace and surroundings.

"It's impossible for me to sneak in alone."

As he expected, there were many soldiers and guards around the palace, and paladins were everywhere.

Penetrating black magic may be advantageous, but the moment it is used; they may realize that paladins rush in like bees.

"I have to think of a useful method..."

Once the Pope is out of the palace, they can set up some contact points, but they can't see any of them.

However, it is not an easy task to contact or kidnap the palace lord's servants and brainwash them for Lin Qing's use.

The eyes of the guards are flickering as the rebellion is taking place.

"Is there no good way?"

Lin Qing pondered for several days on what to do.

Zhang Xun reported that a person came from the mercenary guild, and it was the priestess he met at the mercenary guild that day.

A guild member?"

"Yes, Sir Orr made me do it."

The middle-aged man who was originally considered by them to be a member of the mercenary guild has an astonishingly high status. He is a third-level senior manager.

An employee missed work that day, leaving a vacancy, and he took over the role.

"Do you want to introduce us to customers?" Lin Qing asked.

"That's right, but Lord Adolf will tell you the truth himself."

After the girl's voice fell, he, accompanied by Zhang Xun, went to the mercenary guild.

Don't have to wait long, as the meeting itself is set.

In the room, Orr, who was arranging the weapons, greeted Lin Qing's arrival.

"welcome."

"May I ask why you summoned me to the guild?"

"Huh, I have many reasons, please sit down." Orr replied.

Orr pointed to a chair, smiled slightly, and looked at Lin Qing.

"Do you like to drink tea? This is a rare tea imported from Nantah (Li Qianhao) Lu Yin..."

"I don't drink tea, but please get to the point."

"You seem impatient," Al said.

Realizing what Lin Qing meant, Orr cut to the chase.

"Do you plan to join our guild?"

Mercenary guilds connect customers with mercenaries and charge commissions, but they have their own missions.

Therefore, most of them have direct mercenaries and offered to recruit Fang directly.

The mercenary guild recruits mercenaries, which increases the strength of the guild and can earn higher commission prices.

"We will definitely pay, so..."

"I do not like.

Seeing that Lin Qing refused without even listening, Auer clicked his tongue.

"Tsk tsk, there's nothing I can do about it."

Since Altdorf seemed to be hiding something, Lin Qing had expected that something would happen sooner or later.

Still, he let him speak his proposal, which he declined before he could finish. .
