Seeing that Jianchen remained silent, the middle-aged man once again tried to entice him, "Little brother Jianchen, you can rest assured regarding the distribution of benefits. Although our Flame Mercenary Group is only a small mercenary group that has only been established a few years ago, the brothers in the group are all true men. We value the friendship between brothers more than money. Once we gain something, we won't mistreat you no matter if you contributed or not."
The middle-aged man did not continue speaking at this point. He had already said everything he needed to say. The rest was up to Jianchen.
Jianchen furrowed his brow in thought for a long while. Many factors flashed through his mind at lightning speed. In the end, he gritted his teeth and a resolute light flashed through his eyes. He said, "Alright, I can join your mercenary group, but I have to make things clear first. I won't be bound by any restrictions in the mercenary group. I have the right to not listen to anyone. If I want to leave the mercenary group in the future, you can't stop me for any reason."
The middle-aged man looked at Jianchen and asked doubtfully, "Little brother Jianchen, don't you want to find out about the strength of our Flame Mercenary Group and whether we have any enemies? You have to know that if our Flame Mercenary Group has a powerful enemy, it will definitely bring you a lot of trouble if you join us. You might even be in danger of losing your life."
Jianchen chuckled and said without a care, "If I'm so cowardly when doing things, how am I supposed to make a name for myself in the world? Since I've decided to join your mercenary group, these factors aren't within the scope of consideration at all."
The middle-aged man laughed heartily, "Good! Good! Good! Little brother Jianchen, I couldn't tell that you're a good man at such a young age. There are no problems with the conditions you just mentioned. We're only a small, mediocre mercenary group anyway. The purpose of our existence is to earn some money. As for the brothers in the group, we won't restrict them at all. They can leave whenever they want. "
"That's great." Jianchen nodded in satisfaction.
The middle-aged man suddenly said, "Oh right, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm called Kendall, and I'm also the leader of the Flame Mercenaries. Little brother Jianchen, if you don't mind, you can call me uncle Kendall. I'm not used to those titles of leader and leader." Kendall chuckled towards the end.
"Alright, then I'll call you Uncle Kendall from now on." Jianchen had a good impression of the middle-aged man in front of him. He was forthright and was a man worth befriending.
After that, Jianchen and Kendall finished their meal and left for the Mercenary Guild to complete the relevant procedures.
The procedures for joining a mercenary group were very simple. They completed the procedures very quickly, and Jianchen officially joined the Flame Mercenaries.
"Jianchen, let's go. I'll take you to our temporary gathering point and introduce you to our other brothers." With that, Kendall led the way and led Jianchen into the Mercenary Guild.
Along the way, Kendall constantly introduced Jianchen to some matters of the Flame Mercenaries, allowing Jianchen to gradually gain a better understanding of the Flame Mercenaries.
The Flame Mercenaries was a small mercenary group that had been established for less than five years. Since the mercenaries had been established, the members of the Flame Mercenaries had basically always hunted magical beasts in the Magical Beast Forest to earn money. They rarely took on mercenary missions. As a result, the Flame Mercenaries were still at the DJ rank when they first registered. They hadn't improved at all.
Including Kendall, there were a total of eight members in the Flame Mercenaries. With the addition of Jianchen today, the number of members had increased from eight to nine.
According to Captain Kendall's introduction, among the nine members, other than him who had the strength of a beginner Saint Master, five of the others had the strength of a Great Saint, while the remaining three were still at the Saint Realm.
At this point, Kendall suddenly slapped his forehead and turned to look at Jianchen. He smiled and said, "Right, little brother Jianchen, I still don't know what kind of strength you possess now." Even though Kendall had already guessed that Jianchen would only possess the strength of a Saint at such a young age, this was only his own guess. He didn't dare to rashly jump to conclusions before he received a definite answer from Jianchen.
Jianchen chuckled and didn't say anything. He directly took out the mercenary badge that represented his identity from his spatial belt. This was the badge that Jianchen had obtained when he first registered. It was a D-rank mercenary badge.
Kendall's expression didn't change in the slightest when he saw the badge's grade. He smiled and said, "Now that our Flame Mercenaries have another Saint, we're even stronger than before. I'm sure it'll be easier for us to hunt magical beasts."
… …
Jianchen followed Kendall for the time it took for a stick of incense to burn before finally arriving in front of a commoner's house made of crushed stones. This commoner's house didn't look very big from the outside. The eaves were already covered in spider webs and the walls had traces of wind and frost left behind by the passage of time. It was clear that this commoner's house had existed in Wake City for many years and no one had taken care of it.
Kendall arrived in front of the door and lightly knocked. Not long after, the wooden door opened and a head with dark skin poked out. This was the face of a youth. From his appearance, he seemed to be around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old. He had a skinny and ordinary face and was the type that could be casually picked out in a crowd.
When the skinny youth saw Kendall, he immediately smiled and said, "Uncle Kendall, I guessed that you'd be back."
Afterwards, Jianchen followed Kendall into the house. The lighting in the house was a bit dim, but that didn't affect Jianchen's vision. Jianchen swept his gaze across the house and took in everything inside.
The interior of the house wasn't very big and the decorations were very simple. Apart from a few mattresses that took up half of the space, there was only a table and a few stools. It could be said that it was very simple and crude. On the mattresses on the floor, a few people were lazily drinking wine with bored expressions. However, when Leader Kendall entered, everyone's attention was focused on Leader Kendall.
"Come come come, brothers, let me introduce you. This is little brother Jianchen. He has just joined our Flame Mercenaries. Little brother Jianchen is the youngest among us, so please take care of him in the future." As soon as he entered the house, Kendall pulled Jianchen aside and loudly introduced him to everyone.
