Chapter 523 524. Small tasks

The chicken at home is lost, the wife is having an affair and needs to find the adulterer, the goods are shipwrecked and need to be salvaged. Are these all tasks like this?

Lan En stood in front of a statue of Hermes that was four to five meters high even with the base, holding his chin with **** and muttering to himself.

Hung from the base of this statue of Hermes is a tablet with a commission from a nearby commissioned person.

Hermes is the **** of commerce and roads. When people need mercenaries, they will always hang a task card under the Hermes statue around the settlement.

Looking for a powerful secret organization in a large city with a population of close to 300,000 people is not feasible by relying on one's own strength alone.

This is also one of the reasons why Lan En wants to help Fu Bai.

Now it is the direction of his own efforts: by completing tasks, he connects with people who have power or connections in the city of Athens, and uses their power to investigate the religion.

In the absence of a middleman, it should be a good first contact strategy to do something for politicians and big businessmen in Athens.

However, the invisible class barriers still frustrate Lan En, because it seems that those with status do not write down their needs on a writing board with the common people.

Lane tilted his head and shrugged, letting Mentos write down all the tasks on this writing board.

Since it is not easy to get online with others, he cannot waste his time.

Whether it is for income reasons or to accumulate tasks and gain fame, he is ready to be active as a mercenary for a while first.

It would be even more worthy of celebration if someone from the divine religion could take the initiative to come over during this process.

Reject usury, the person who issued this task is very close to us, sir. And it seems that we can provoke some prestigious enemies, and the enemys prestige will become our reputation.

Mentos analyzed it slowly.

Lane agreed and began to follow Mentos's path.

In addition to the fishermen's area, Athens's municipal facilities are very good, not to mention various large sculptures. They also used a large amount of pure white marble to pave the steps, as well as build flower beds and pools.

Even a small amount of ground is no longer made of loess, but is paved with marble.

Lan even dared not think about how much stone these Athenians dug out.

But there is no doubt that by forming the Delian League, Athens sucked a lot of blood from its allies to build its own city.

Hello, Petulus?

In the temple of Hephaestus, which has many marble columns, Lan found the person who issued the mission.

An Athenian wearing a linen skirt.

He has a small mustache on his chin and does not look like he has done any heavy work. He should be an Athenian citizen.

But his coarse linen clothes still showed his poor economic situation.

At this time, the client blinked blankly and looked at the tall, muscular and beautiful silver-haired man in front of him.

Ah, ah! Yes! I am Petulus.

Lan has become somewhat accustomed to this kind of attention, especially after his bones have further developed, and he will be very conspicuous wherever he goes.

So the demon hunter just curled his lips and continued: "I am a mercenary, and you entrusted me with a mission? Can you tell me in detail?"

At any rate, the need for the mission defeated curiosity and surprise. The man stumbled and told Lan En about the mission.

There is nothing surprising.

An Athenian citizen borrowed money at usury. His income was not good, and he thought he had repaid his share, so he planned to refuse to repay the remaining drachma.

But the gangsters are not politicians who need votes. They don't care whether the debtors are Athenian citizens.

So in order to protect his health and property from the debt collectors, Petulus was looking for mercenaries.

The asking price was twenty drachmas, which was much less than what he had to pay back to the gangster. It was a good deal.

This price is enough to buy a suckling pig in Athens, which is a lot of money.

"Okay, gangster." Lan En nodded indifferently, "It's not difficult to pass, but I can't follow you for several days just for this little money. Do you have an agreed place and time with them?"

"I won't waste your time, mercenary!" Petulus said quickly, "We have already made an appointment, just go to a warehouse in the port now!" Generally speaking, it is normal for the task issuer to boss around the mercenaries. , but Petulus felt inexplicably today that he was the one who should be nervous in the conversation.

Then hurry up, sir. My schedule is quite full today.

Lan En actually wanted to clear all the tasks on that writing board within one day.

The two walked across the city of Athens and arrived at a warehouse in the port area.

Before he could get closer, Lan En's straight brows frowned slightly.

They dont look like they are collecting debts or beating people, they look more like they want to kill you.

Several gangsters were sitting in front of the warehouse door, and a few breathing sounds were captured by Lan En from inside the warehouse.

Their equipment can basically match the one-eyed men on Kefalonia.

But the one-eyed man in Kefalonia could almost be considered a ruler, whereas here they are really just gangsters.

It can only be said that when the wealth of Athens circulated, it also fattened these hyenas in the darkness.

Listening to Lan En's words, Petulus swallowed nervously.

No, thats not necessarily the case, right? In this case, Ill go up and talk first.

There was a pleading expression on his face. This was because he was a little afraid that Lan En would see something was wrong and break the contract.

But before the Athenian citizen could finish speaking.

Bang!

Lan En kicked up a palm-sized piece of wood with his feet, and the light touch made him feel just right. So just wave your hand! That palm-sized piece of wood hit a gangster on the side of his face!

The light wood created a wave effect on the man's face, and a big tooth flew out of his lip.

It doesnt matter if they want to kill someone.

Amidst the blank stares of the other group of people, Lan En moved his wrist and walked over. He wasn't ready to draw the knife.

Just hit it hard.

Originally, he was just going to beat these people up, but now, he was going to break a few bones.

Those words are light and airy.

The difference between a group of armed thugs who "want to kill" or "want to hit someone" is like whether a puppy "wants to bark" or "wants to bite" in Lan En's mouth.

The thugs poured out of the warehouse and looked at Lan En who was walking slowly. They swallowed and pulled out the daggers at their waists, spears and shields on their backs.

Petulus spent the next three minutes watching these ferocious gangsters throwing their equipment far away, as if he never wanted to pick it up again in his life.

Because when Lan En was beating them, he would keep beating them if he didn't put down his weapon.

So after a while, these thugs became completely smart.

There are wounded everywhere, and both hands are empty.

Pain is the best teacher.

Lann dusted off the non-existent dust on his hands, walked up to Petulus, and spread out to him.

This guy was stunned for a while, and then he quickly took out the drachma from the wallet on his belt.

Lan Ens big hands clenched, making the sound of coins rubbing against each other.

It took a total of half an hour to complete a small task. This efficiency is not bad.

The witcher nodded at his efficiency.

But when Lan En was about to follow the route planned by Mentos and head to the next client.

He suddenly looked towards the other side of the warehouse.

In his hearing, there was the sound of well-trained footsteps over there.
