    Chapter 150 Recruitment and employment, in the name of justice

    When the door of the reception room was pushed open and a young man dressed as a magician walked slowly into the room, even the people in Xianyun Yehe couldn't help but stand up to show respect.

    "Everyone, please take a seat. There is no need to be so outspoken." Sebastian pressed his hands and took the lead in taking a seat at the host's table.  After everyone sat down in their respective seats, he continued, "I have heard about your actions in Taxaros, and I am quite satisfied that you were able to successfully prevent the conspiracy of the Scourge Cult. As for what was agreed beforehand,  Don¡¯t worry about the reward, I will pay it to you right away.¡±

    "About this, Mr. Sebastian, we are extremely ashamed." The young paladin with blond hair and silver armor stood up straight and looked at the young man with a somewhat embarrassed look. "I have heard about it from Mr. Tanis.  Because of this mission, your territory was harassed by the druids for no reason a while ago. That¡¯s why I rushed to see you. If you need the assistance of our Golden Scale, we are ready to go at any time."

    "My benefactor of Versetti, your virtue makes me sincerely admire you." You are worthy of being the legendary paladin who represents justice and kindness. When Zefas said this, Sebastian looked at him.  There was no selfish desire in his eyes, only the endless determination to fight against the evil in the world, "But, that is not your fault. Bewitched by the extreme goals that you think are lofty, the madmen of the Scourge Cult have long been defeated.  It makes sense.¡±

    "Yes, you are right. Just for the sake of what they call balance, they keep trying to plunge this continent into the chaos of war. Those people are all lunatics!" The young man's words obviously resonated with the young paladin.  He couldn't help but said, "It's a pity that my abilities are limited. Otherwise, I will definitely eradicate this heresy as much as possible."

    "In that case" Sebastian mused, "I have killed several people who came to harass my territory this time, but I think that in the near future, there will definitely be more crazy cultists coming.  My trouble. Although I am not afraid, it is impossible to give up the research of magic and leave the master tower for a long time to guard the territory. As a result, the power around my young lord is somewhat insufficient. "

    Zephas nodded.  As an adventure team, it is absolutely impossible not to have its own source of information. He is obviously not ignorant about the ambiguous relationship between the young magician in front of him and the beautiful baron's daughter.

    "If you are willing, in order to protect innocent people and fight against the evil Cult of Scourge together." Sebastian said what the temple usually promotes. He always puts himself on the moral high ground first.  It's not wrong, "I hope to cooperate with you for a long time. What do you think of my proposal?"

    The members of the Golden Balance team looked at each other, and their long-standing tacit understanding gave them an idea of ??each other's decisions.

    "Originally, our Golden Scale, as an adventure team, was not willing to stay in the same place for a long time like mercenaries." As the captain and spokesman, Zefas thought for a moment and said, "But for what you are facing this time,  Enemies, we also have inseparable responsibilities. Please forgive me for asking directly, Mr. Sebastian, how long do you plan to hire us for?"

    "Tentatively five years. What do you think?" Sebastian stretched out his right hand and spread his fingers. "Among the five of you, most members have a longer life span than humans. Five years is not enough for you.  This is an unacceptable time period. When the five-year contract expires, we will discuss whether to renew the contract based on the satisfaction of both of us. God's Grace, what do you think?"

    After making eye contact again, Zefas nodded and said: "We accept your proposal, Mr. Sebastian, and the Golden Scale Team is willing to serve you wholeheartedly. However, we still have a small request.  , I hope you can be satisfied.¡±

    ¡°Obviously, young magicians are not the only smart people in this world.  I'm afraid the people from Golden Scale had already discussed it carefully before they came. Otherwise, even if he was the captain, Zefas would not be able to make such a decision so readily.

    "Oh? Please tell me." Sebastian was also a little curious about what kind of request the other party would make.

    "You are a talented magician." Zefas complimented and casually said, "So, we hope that part of the reward can be paid with an appropriate amount of magic items. Of course, we are also very aware of the value of magic items.  , even if we need to pay some money, it doesn¡¯t matter.¡±

    "That's it" Sebastian frowned and thought for a long time under the expectant eyes of everyone before nodding resolutely, "Okay, I have confidence in your abilities. In order to show  My sincerity, I will choose to give priority to magic items??'s.  In addition, if your work in the future can satisfy me, in my spare time, I will also be willing to customize some equipment for you at market prices.  "

    "Is this true?" Not only Zefas, but also the handsome half-elf guy who had been sitting next to him with an expressionless expression was a little moved.  You must know that there are very few magic items on the market in the Akaron continent, and most magicians are never willing to compromise their magic power to produce these tools in large quantities unless necessary.  How can a magical weapon obtained by luck occasionally be as good as a specially customized one?  In the battle between life and death, even a slight difference is of great significance.

    "I will never go back on the promise I made." Sebastian said with a slight smile.

    "Thank you for your generosity, Mr. Sebastian." Zefas bowed deeply, "Then, from now on, the five of us will be at your disposal at any time."

    "Very good, I believe you will not regret the decision you made today." Sebastian clapped his hands gently and said with a smile, "Now, as a reward for your previous mission and as a manifestation of my sincerity, please  Accept this small gift from me.¡±

    While the robe was flipping, the young man's hand had already taken out something from the dimensional bag at his waist.  Although he tried hard to look dignified and not squinting, the eyes of several people present unconsciously drifted towards the young man's hands.

    This is a small brown cloth bag, inconspicuous, not much different from an ordinary money bag.  The bag was dry and shriveled, and it didn't look like it contained anything.  But Zefas and the others knew very well that their employer would never come up with an ordinary bag.

    "This" Zefas hesitated and asked in a low voice, "Is the reward you plan to give us a dimensional bag?"

    Although the Dimensional Bag is undoubtedly a very practical magic item, its value may not necessarily be for those adventurers who do everything possible to improve their chances of survival and who are on the verge of life and death every moment.  It is comparable to a magical weapon with intuitive effects, especially for those ascetics who do not pay attention to external objects and do not like to carry too many things with them.

    "No, it is not a dimensional bag, but a defective summoning magic bag." Sebastian waved his hand and explained, "I bought it accidentally. If it is auctioned, the market price will be  It¡¯s about six thousand gold coins. Although it is slightly inferior to the standard version, it is still quite effective. Once a week, you can take out the small pom pom in the bag and throw it on the ground, and it will transform into a ferocious large animal¡ª  -Such as lions, tigers, bears, etc., obey your orders, the time limit is ten minutes. And interestingly, although they look like animals in appearance, the beasts they transform cannot be pacified by the Druid's animal soothing technique.  Impact. If used properly, it may be 200% effective."

    "So that's it." Zefas nodded, without any further shirk, he picked up the magic bag and put it away carefully, "In that case, we will accept it, thank you."

    "You're welcome, you all deserve this." Sebastian said with a smile, "Then, if it is convenient for you, please transfer to Miss Isabel later. There is a sum of brandy when you come back this time.  The business needs to be done, and the amount is quite large, so I could use your help. Mr. Arati, the Wamborn family's martial arts master, will properly arrange your tasks." I noticed that the man opposite me couldn't help but swing his short legs.  The kender lady showed a trace of disapproval, and the boy raised his lips and added maliciously, "Ah, by the way, Mr. Arati is a very powerful warrior. If you are interested, you can also  You can compete with him and gain some combat experience, I believe it will benefit both parties."

    "If there is a chance." The young paladin raised his head, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.  This excitement is not cruel and belligerent, but simply a desire for a superior opponent and a challenge to surpass oneself.

    "ThatMr. Magician" The dwarf old Ducan, who had been sitting on the sofa without saying a word, finally couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, what is the brandy you are talking about  ? Old Dukan, I have lived for more than two hundred years and have drunk countless kinds of wine. How come I have never heard of this kind of wine?"

    "Because it has only appeared recently. Ah, I happen to have a few bottles around me. If you don't mind, you can try it. In the coming year, the production scale will be gradually expanded, and this wine will be my territory for some time to come.  Mainly for trade. There may be some short-sighted guys peeking, so please be mentally prepared." Sebastian greeted warmly.

    As if there were invisible servants serving me, the glasses in the cupboard flew down lightly.On the table in front of the five people, the cork in the glass bottle popped up on its own, and then the wine glasses were filled one by one.

    "It smells so good!" Old Duken grabbed the wine glass, took a deep breath, trembled all over, and praised loudly, and then drank it all without hesitation.  The next second, the old dwarf's bearded face turned red instantly, and his mouth opened wide, "Ha¡ª¡ª!!! Good wine! Rioux's beard is really good wine!"

    This drunken look caused the teammates around him to frown, but in front of his employer, they were too embarrassed to scold him in a too formal way.  But when the rich aroma of the wine gradually spread and the mellow taste danced on the tip of the tongue, only a few people understood why the old dwarf acted so exaggeratedly.

    "The elves' minced fruit wine is nothing more than that!" Even half-elf Gru, who always had a straight face, couldn't help but pour himself a few more cups.  The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves for a while.
