Earth’s Greatest Magus

Chapter 1491 Mercenaries



The beautiful lady led them to a seat with a direct view of a large open field. Their reason for being here was revealed a few moments later when two packs of wolves entered the premises, each consisting of fifteen half-bloods warriors.

Each pack was led by three magus-level figures, two New Moon and one Crescent Moon stage realm, who was the pack leader.

With a glance at their appearance, Emery could tell these people were fighters to be reckoned with. Their demeanor and mannerism, coupled with the aura they emanated, clearly showed they were all veteran warriors.

Without even waiting for their response, the lady gestured to these people to start sparring. Each pack quickly sent out one person, they immediately charged and came to blows with one another.

It was a clear display of the strength they were capable of.

Emery saw the first to spar were saint-level warriors. However, being half-bloods, the transformation bestowed by their bloodline managed to make their spar much more interesting than expected.

The spar was as brutal as a real fight could be, but before the two of them got too gravely injured, the leader of the pack intervened and sent out another person, at which point another exciting spar ensued.

The demonstration went on like this until it was finally time for a spar between the magus-level individuals from the two groups.

When the magus stepped onto the field, Emery and Annara were presented with a completely different level of combat, where they got to see not only the wolf's overwhelming physical abilities due to their transformation, but also their skills within the realm of magic.

"Hopefully what they've shown is to your liking, Sir." The lady said with a smile after the last pair of magus ended their fight.

Both of them were still playing their roles, Emery stayed silent and with just a glance, Annara turned to her saying, "Is this really the best you have? I'm sure you have a better one than this."

Hearing those words, the lady replied apologetically. "I apologize, they are indeed only our second tier mercenaries. As for the reasons why we can't show you our first tier, they are not available at the moment."

"I thought you said you had a lot of mercenaries," Annara said quickly, raising her eyebrows as she stared at her and asked, "Are these really the standard of the Corvin faction?"

Not receiving a decent answer from the lady. Annara came to a thought, she took out a leather bag and showed its content to the other party. "If you think we don't have what it takes to pay for them, This is five million spirit stones. More will come if my master likes what he sees."

The spirit stones Annara showed were none other than the fund given by the Ouroboros Queen to buy the Ancient Wolf Blood. Emery was pretty sure they weren't allowed to spend it all on things like hiring mercenaries, hence the red-haired girl's daring words must have been a bluff on her part.

There was no doubt that five million spirit stones was a huge amount of money. However, the lady didn't seem impressed by it. She surprisingly looked toward Emery and said, "Sir, Are you perhaps looking for a pack to join the Royal Hunt?"

Emery turned to the lady saying, "Yes, that's indeed the case. How do you know?"

Still with her professional smile, the lady said, "During such time, it's actually not difficult. After all, you weren't the first to come to our establishment for the same reason."

As it turned out, there had been quite a few young masters from certain factions who had asked for the same request. Thanks to the recent news that there would be a special reward for the champion of this year's Royal Hunt, the lady believed that more would come this year.

Despite their half-blood origin, these young masters usually hailed from a human-dominated planet, hence they didn't have many wolf packs they could depend on this kind of matter.

"Unfortunately, Sir, the hiring fee for this particular event, is double the usual."

Saying those words, the lady took out a cube showing a price list catered specifically for hiring wolf half-blood mercenaries for the event. Both Emery and Annara were quite startled when they saw the numbers written.

[Third-tier, one magus team: 1,000,000]

[Second-tier, three magus team: 3,000,000]

[First-tier, all-magus team: 10, 000,000]

Apparently, the reason for the increase in price was not because of high demand, but rather because of the event itself, more specifically the length of the event and the need for the mercenaries to enter into a blood pact.

However, Annara didn't back down from her bluff and before Emery could say anything, she went ahead and said she wanted to see a first tier mercenary regardless of the cost.

Unfortunately, the lady still refused her offer.

"The truth is our young master is also planning to join in on the event, that's why we can't show you our first tier mercenaries. He has reserved all of them for his training," the lady said in an apologetic tone.

Before Annara could say something they would regret, Emery stepped in and made a decision. "Then we will not use your services this time. Thank you for your time."

After hearing that Jason would join the Royal Hunt, even if money was not an issue, Emery would not trust a wolf pack of the Corvin to become part of his team. One thing he regretted a little was that he couldn't see firsthand the strength of Corvin's first tier pack.

"We're leaving now."

Even though Emery had told her they could go on their own, the woman kept up her professionalism and accompanied him out of the place. As they once again walked past the Red Pagoda, Emery suddenly picked up a subtle female voice, singing inside the place and stopped in his tracks.

His abrupt stop and gaze at the building caught the attention of the two women next to him. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟el.c𝚘𝚖

Annara was genuinely surprised Emery even considered entering the place. On the other hand, the lady picked up the clue and swiftly invited him to visit the establishment.

Hearing the female voice once again, Emery nodded to the offer. "Show me the way."

"Seriously, what's going on? What's the plan here?" Annara whispered, confusion evident in her voice.

Emery casually replied, "The voice, I think I know her."
