"Master Xiner, have you heard of any territory hiring Beastn?" Sol couldn’t help but ask Master Xiner.
After all, as a High-level Summoner and Beast Tar who often traveled among various territories, Master Xiner would definitely know about such unusual territories.
Unexpectedly, Master Xiner shook his head directly, "No, the territories I have visited have not ntioned it; perhaps it’s so newly erged territories."
There are thousands of territories, big and small, in the Human Clan Kingdom. Aside from so top and well-known ones, how could he possibly rember every small territory?
Hearing this, Sol also realized, "That’s true. Just recently, thousands of new territories have appeared across the Stan Continent within that period."
After all, the resources at the start of a new territory’s developnt are indeed better than those of existing territories at the sa level.
Of course, to a major territory like Delisha City, these newly erged territories are but a droplet in the ocean, creating no ripple; they truly didn’t regard these new territories in high esteem.
Thinking of this, Sol’s expression flickered.
Compared to the ford territories, few people invest their energy in summoning new Special Buildings. A new territory seems more likely to choose this type of Special Building and put it to use.
But then, on what basis could a new territory subjugate those Beastn?
If they lacked strength, summoning so many Beastn and accommodating them might just turn the tables against them.
Could it be that the reason the Beastn brought their families and other Beastn was because they gained leverage in Human Territory?
If that was the case, then that territory would not be feared.
"Seeing that they have sent soone back to report ahead of ti, their territory probably lies even further," Master Xiner continued, "The farther away it is, the weaker my control over Magic Beasts becos; I might not be able to pinpoint the existence of that territory."
"It doesn’t matter. Even if we can’t track their territory, we’ll eventually find out by staying nearby," Sol directly said.
Beastn are not so easily hidden in Human Territory.
Especially that Tiger-man he had clashed with— he thought—he would definitely not forget.
He truly suffered a great loss before a Beastman for the first ti.
"Hmm, seems like we still need so ti. You can go back first! I’ll notify you if there’s any news," Master Xiner said directly.
He looked at them for quite a while; thinking that nothing significant would change shortly, he was too lazy to keep entertaining them.
"Yes," acknowledged Sol, understanding this rationale; he quickly nodded.
As for the paynt, he would ensure it was sent after returning ho.
Hiring Master Xiner cost a pretty penny, and he had been prepared for that.
Even if the cost was high, he was willing to pay for it; sotis it was all about securing that sense of victory.
Following that, Sol left with Bridges and Philip.
Once they left, the two prominent individuals, who had been background figures, finally dared to speak.
Given their status in Delisha City, if not for Sol’s reputation, they wouldn’t have managed to visit Master Xiner.
"If we find that territory where the Beastn are," Bridges couldn’t help but speak, "what can we do upon arriving there? Can we make them return the Beastn to us?"
It was not possible, as they knew.
This made their venture sowhat insignificant in scope.
If they were another rcenary Team, it might be different, but the other side was backed by a territory.
"Just a small territory; even if we can’t make them return the Beastn, they must give us an explanation," said Sol without hesitation, "And aren’t you curious? What kind of territory could make those Beastn do such things? I don’t believe you’re unaware that it was all spontaneous."
Sol had read so much on that Magic Scroll and had pieced the entire process together.
Perhaps their opponents hadn’t planned to "rob" them initially. But since their team discovered them and even blocked their way to Human Territory, they had devised a plan on the spur of the mont and robbed them directly.
Although he hated to admit it, for that group of Beastn to have devised such a comprehensive plan in such a short ti using the conditions available was genuinely impressive.
Bridges and Philip realized this too. It was because they realized it that they felt even more ashad.
Still, they shalessly said, "If it weren’t for our unawareness of their target being the Human Territory, they wouldn’t have had such an easy ti succeeding..."
As they spoke, they finally admitted reluctantly, "Alright! We are indeed a bit curious."
"So, let’s wait for the news!" Sol spoke, "Besides, since they are sheltering Beastn, when the ti cos, we’ll just capture another batch of Beastn and take them to their territory. Let’s see what they plan to do."
The two nodded.
After they left Master Xiner’s estate, they directly returned to their team’s activity center.
The rcenaries were all waiting for news, especially those who had been completely robbed.
For them, their losses were truly imnse.
It felt like they couldn’t recover at once.
And what concerned them even more were the discussions among the surrounding rcenary teams.
Especially those from other directions and other missions, who had co to enjoy the spectacle after hearing about the trendous failure of these three rcenary teams’ joint action.
And among them were so teams that had a bit of a rough history with them.
"I thought it was fake news when I heard it, but it turned out to be true, I can’t believe they all would et with failure, it’s unbelievable!"
"I heard they caught over two hundred Beastn this ti, I saw a team saw them swaggering past not long ago!"
"Who knew who made them suffer such a huge loss?"
"Not clear, but it’s definitely not from our territory’s rcenary teams."
"Of course, who dares to rob Sol."
"It must be soone from another territory, anyway, Sol has already sought Master Sinier, and Master Sinier’s Magic Beast Group has been deployed, finding that person is just a matter of ti."
"That team really didn’t think this through!"
"But, Sol and his companions were moving with not three teams but several hundred people this ti, and they still got robbed, the strength of the other party must not be underestimated!"
"So who exactly was it?"
"..."
The voices of discussion kept reaching the ears of the rcenaries inside.
They all fell silent.
They were too embarrassed to say that they had been counter-robbed by the Beastn! Saying it out loud would be humiliating!
No! They absolutely couldn’t let anyone find out!
The many rcenaries exchanged glances, reaching a consensus.
It was during this bustling discussion that Sol and his two companions appeared.
As soon as they appeared, the people surrounding their team’s activity center instantly dispersed.
Watching the excitent and making cool remarks was fine, but being rembered by the opposition was absolutely not.
Sol watched this scene, and couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
He felt that, unless there was an even more explosive news in the next few days, he was really going to be the talk of the town for a long ti!
Quickly, Sol and his companions entered the building, then closed the door.
The rcenaries inside instantly shuddered and all stared at Sol and his two companions.
How did it go?
Where did that group of Beastn run off to?
"They indeed headed towards Human Territory, they’re quite a distance from here, we can’t pinpoint their location yet, but I’ll notify you all once we have news. Rember to keep this matter strictly confidential, don’t leak any information, as for the rcenaries who suffered losses this ti, I’ll increase your mission count, also, the rcenary Team will lend equipnt and weapons until you buy new ones, any questions?" Sol said, looking around, observing their expressions.
Everyone had no objections; those who had been robbed were even more pleased with this compensation.
With more missions, they could earn a lot back.
Most of the rcenaries carried only a part of their net worth for missions, not all of it, so it was still acceptable.
So, the crowd replied, "It’s okay, we’ll listen to you, Captain."
After confirming there were no problems, Sol nodded slightly, "Then it’s settled, rest today, and continue with missions tomorrow, rest assured! We won’t just swallow this loss."
Those Beastn, just you wait!
anwhile, O’Neill sneezed violently, then rubbed his nose, "Not sure who is thinking of !"
Lucas kept quiet; the impact of Hope Village residents on them was indeed profound.
But if soone was indeed concerned about them, it must be that group of rcenary teams!
Now it was just unknown what the Lord would think after Pauli reported back that they "rescued" a group of Beastn.
