Lin dong Lake Station.
It was getting late, and Arthur came back from practicing at Lin dong Lake. He saw Jose, Monkey and Land waiting at the door of his wooden house.
"Is something wrong?"
"It's okay, I just want to chat with you." Monkey came over with a playful smile, holding two bottles of wine in his hand. Land behind him was also carrying something in his hand, which he guessed was food.
"I'm starving. Let's eat and chat in my room."
Arthur has now fully integrated into the team. The relationship in the army is simpler than in society. Arthur first rescued Jose, and then distributed the equipment allocated to him to the three team captains, quickly gaining the entire team. The squadron soldiers sincerely recognized it.
A few people were sitting around the charcoal stove. Arthur tore a chicken leg directly from the oil paper bag that Land opened. "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Monkey pushed Jose, "What do you mean?"
José took out a small money bag directly from his arms and poured out a small pile in front of Arthur with a clank.
Arthur glanced at it. Except for the seven gold coins, the rest were all silver coins and copper coins. The total of this small pile was only eleven or twelve gold coins. "What are you doing, bribing me?"
"No, our field army can't compare to the city guards in the city. We live a miserable life and have no other income except the military salary from the top. The soldiers below only have six gold coins a year. I am the same level as Captain Monkey. It's only ten gold coins, and the military salary we earned in exchange for it in a year is not enough to feed the nobles in the city."
"Speak to the important points."
Jose smiled sheepishly, feeling that he was verbose, "We can only rely on hunting to supplement the brothers' income. This is the income of the last month. According to the rules, you get one-third, and the three of us get three." One part, and the rest will be divided equally among the brothers below."
"You don't have much money this month?" Arthur, who made his first pot of gold from the huge profits from enchanted equipment, no longer looks down on the small money.
"This is already the most monthly income I have seen in these years. It includes the money exchanged for the bear skins and crystal cores of the two little devil bears. Normally, the monthly income is only two or three gold coins." Jose was embarrassed. Explained.
"I don't want my share anymore. You can divide it equally with the brothers below."
Handley immediately smiled with a smile on his face, "Should I just tell the captain that he doesn't want it? How can someone from Guano Academy value such a small amount of money?"
"No, the rules are the rules. The captain must take the share." Jose was so stubborn that he was almost stupid at times.
"Then I'll buy the bar for all my share, and then I'll treat you and the brothers to a drink."
"That's okay." Jose thought for a moment before putting the money away again.
Arthur found that the three of them were not rigid in seeking benefits for their own people, so he tentatively said: "What you do is just a small amount of money after all. I have a way to make a lot of money. Do you have the guts to do it?"
The eyes of Monkey and Land immediately lit up, "We all have the guts to fight the orcs, but we lack the guts to make money. As long as you lead us, captain, our entire squadron will join you!"
Although Jose did not express his position immediately, he did not object.
Arthur took out two enchanted equipment directly from the space bracelet, a level 3 armor and a level 4 long sword. One of the two pieces of enchanted equipment is Arthur's own work, and the other is the loot from the last robbery of the trading house. Since Arthur got the bracelet himself, Arthur took all the remaining "stolen items" stored in Joan's place.
"Both of these things have problems with their origins. Is there any way to deal with them internally?"
José and others' eyes immediately widened. Their level had never had the opportunity to come into contact with enchanted equipment before.
"No problem, I have channels to take action. Enchanted equipment is priceless in the army. These things are too tempting for officers at the level of captain and battalion commander!" Jose said with excitement.
"Then you contact the buyer, but you can't disclose the source of the item. I will get 80% of the money sold, and you will share 20%. Is there any problem?"
"Captain, don't worry about this. No one in the army asks about the origin of these things. Even if someone asks us, we just say they are trophies seized when intercepting the orc hunting team. When the time comes, we hand over one or two orc corpses, and they won't be able to investigate. Check." Jose, a veteran, is very experienced in this.
Monkey and Lundy nodded excitedly. According to the market price, if these two enchanted equipment can be successfully sold, Arthur will give them fifty gold coins at 20%, which is equivalent to their income in the past two years.
As for the origin of Arthur's two enchanted equipment, do they not care? They were now firmly tied to Arthur.
Arthur smiled like a little fox. Just as he imagined, no matter how powerful your Church of Light is, you can't find the source of the enchanted equipment in the hands of the officers of the Kingdom's Field Legion, right?
Singapore, headquarters of the Church of Light.
A tall knight in silver armor slowly walked into the west hall of the church, his boots making a crisp sound with every step he took on the blue marble.
The middle-aged priest in a purple holy robe sat on a tall chair under the statue of light with a smile on his face. This man was none other than Cardinal Dilly, one of the three giants of the church.
The leader of the Knights of Light, the 11th-level Grand Knight Vance Wilburn, took off his helmet and held it in his arms with one hand. He bowed slightly and said, "You summoned me, Bishop Dill?"
"Captain Vans, there are no outsiders here, you can be as casual as you want." Oilier greeted with a smile.
Vance took a few steps forward and sat down on the seat next to Bishop Oilier.
"Captain Fans, please come here. I would like to ask about the incident involving the dark magician that occurred in Jiang Ridge a month ago. How is the investigation by the tribunal going?" Oilier asked softly, seemingly casually.
"You know, the Inquisition has always been responsible for incidents involving heretics, and it is not easy for us, the Light Knights, to intervene directly."
Oilier smiled and said, "The Inquisition won't be able to find anything further, so you Knights of Light are going to take over secretly."
Dance was stunned and asked tentatively: "What does the archbishop mean?"
"Although Archbishop So this did not say it clearly, he was already very dissatisfied with the Inquisition. Three years ago, they spent a lot of manpower and material resources of the church to arrest so many people, but they never caught the fish that slipped through the net, allowing the archbishop to be in the papal court. There was a loss of face. Now that little fish has grown up and reappeared, of course the Archbishop is not happy."
"It's strange that the tribunal didn't arrest anyone this time?"
Oilier showed a contemptuous smile, "Do you think those idiots in the Inquisition never thought of arresting people? But this time the people involved in this matter are all students of Guano Academy. It doesn't matter if they are ordinary, noble children. There are still There is the son of Rex and the daughter of Archduke Ross. If the Inquisition really dares to touch these people, it will be like forcing So this to have a showdown with Stacey in advance. They are planning to roast the Archbishop on the fire! "
Vance frowned and said, "Things involving divine power and royal power are very troublesome for us Bright Knights to get involved in."
"Obviously we can't move, but we can think of other ways."
"Please give me your instructions, Cardinal."
Oilier smiled like an old fox, "Aren't the students involved in this matter going to the legion for training this year? We, the Church of Light, are also obliged to protect the people of God in the Kingdom of Isaac from being invaded by orcs, and send some interns of light to the army. Knights and priests of light, Stacey can't say anything, right?"
