Josiah really couldn't find any fault with the ghost band cultivated by the Venerated Skeleton.
However, the visitors to this music guild were mainly humans. Normal people couldn't sing in a room with a group of undead alone.
But the leader of the Jefrk Snake mercenary group was an exception.
This group of senior adventurers had probably been to places like the underground cemetery. They must have killed a lot of zombies and ghosts.
"Sir Josiah, what can I do for you?"
A ghost who looked only about ten years old appeared in the dark magic circle. The moment he appeared, sixteen ghosts also appeared beside him.
The inscription given to Josiah by the Venerated Skeleton had the ability to summon from a distance. These ghosts were the ensemble under the Venerated Skeleton, and the leading ghost was the Venerated Skeleton's butler.
The moment the butler greeted Josiah, he raised his head and looked outside the Hall of Silence.
Because he felt an obvious hostility from the group of people outside the Hall of Silence.
"Sir Josiah, if you want to deal with humans, it is more efficient to summon the soul-eater. However, that group of people doesn't seem to be at the level that the soul-eater can deal with."
The butler gently tugged at the white gloves on his hands. His eyes glowed with a scarlet luster, as if he was ready for battle.
"Leader, that group of ghosts."
The mercenaries of the Jefrk Snake mercenary group outside the door also clenched the weapons they carried at this moment.
They could clearly feel that the ghosts that appeared in the Hall of Silence were not at the 'ordinary' level.
"Knight Of The White Thorn! Bring all your musical instruments here! "
Josiah's voice broke the deadlock of everyone present.
Since the door of the Hall of Silence was open now, the Knight Of The White Thorn waiting outside the Hall of Silence heard Josiah's voice. He quickly called the attendants here to move the reserved musical instruments over.
The Music Guild still had a lot of musical instruments. There were basically all the common musical instruments in the world. There was even a special piano placed in the Hall of Silence.
"I summoned you guys in hopes of playing two songs for him. This request shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Josiah pointed at the brawny man standing outside the door.
"Accompaniment? Understood. "
The butler stared into Josiah's eyes for a long time and instantly understood the current situation. He placed one hand behind his back and began to order the spirits to find their own musical instruments.
"Mr. Reyek, the preparations are almost ready. Bring me your music score," Josiah said.
The burly man nodded. Just as he was about to bend down and enter the Soundless Hall, another black-robed member pulled him back.
"Leader, at least half of those 16 spirits have the power to transform into a Lich. They only need to steal one body …"
That member was a necromancer. He instantly recognized how dangerous the specters in the Soundless Hall were.
"This is not a battlefield."
After saying this, Reyek bent down and walked into the Hall of Silence.
The members of the Jefrke Serpent Mercenary Group were extremely nervous at this moment.
"I have a feeling that if these spirits get close to their leader, they will immediately break the window and enter."
Hiri moved closer to Josiah and whispered.
"They are already in contact," Josiah pointed at where the brawny man was.
"Can you show me the music score?"
The butler floated in front of the heavily armored mercenary group leader. It was indeed strange to sing in this outfit.
Reyek handed a sheepskin scroll to the spirit in front of him. His translucent hand firmly grasped the actual scroll and opened it up to take a closer look.
"The Pirate's Song from the Kingdom of Waterfront?" The butler suddenly asked.
Reyek didn't think that this spirit would recognize the origin of the music score. After a short moment of surprise, he gave the spirit a slightly creepy smile.
"It's only a remnant of a chapter. It has long fallen," he said.
"It's a song about the legend of the sirens. This song isn't that difficult."
The butler looked at Josiah. Josiah also brought Hiri directly to the conductor's seat in the Hall of Silence. He took out the raw crystal used for recording and made a hand gesture to the butler.
Everything went according to plan, and the performance of the spirit band was indeed impeccable.
Josiah sat at the side and listened to the song. In the middle of the song, he asked the Knight Of The White Thorn for a piece of paper and a pen to write a musical staff.
The style of this mercenary group leader's song was more like a folk song, but in the folk song, there was a kind of rock and roll feeling. It sounded like an adrenaline rush.
Country rock? For some reason, this word appeared in Josiah's mind.
His performance didn't last long. Two songs took six minutes to pass in one go. There were no flaws in the two performances.
"It's a pity that I don't have an electric guitar on hand." Josiah said as he passed the recorded raw crystal to Reyek.
"An electric guitar?"
He seemed to be in a good mood. Anyone who liked to sing would feel refreshed after singing two songs in a row.
"An instrument that suits your voice. This is a recorded 'record'." Josiah pointed at the pitch-black raw crystal in his palm. "Inject mana into it, and you will be able to hear your previous performance. If you are willing to become a member of the music guild, I can help you mass produce these records and sell them."
This sentence was obviously heard by the mercenary group members behind him. Such an open and aboveboard poaching was indeed disrespectful to them.
However, as the world's top mercenary group, they believed that the income from a hunt would definitely be much more than selling records. Therefore, they were confident that their leader wouldn't …
"Let me think about it," he said seriously as he put away the raw crystal in his hand.
"Also, I hope that you can upload these two songs to the magic net. Of course, I will pay you a certain amount of copyright fees," Josiah said.
"Upload to the magic net?"
"The magic net will release a music 'magic' in the near future. It is similar to the function of Noland's Voice. You will be able to find the songs you want to listen to at any time."
Josiah tried his best to explain in a language that Reyek could understand.
"Sure, this is the rest of the deposit."
Reyek was the type who didn't like to talk nonsense. He took out another bag of gold coins from his armor and prepared to pass it to Josiah.
At this moment, Josiah also passed him a bound music score.
"Music score …"
He used his hands that were twice the size of a normal person to flip through the mini music score. After roughly skimming through the contents, he looked at Josiah with a puzzled expression.
"Consider it a greeting gift. I think these two songs are very suitable for you, but I haven't gathered the conditions to perform them yet. In the future, if you are still interested in being a singer, you can come here anytime."
Josiah once again extended an olive branch to their leader in front of this group of evil mercenaries.
