Chapter 1364: Azure Flying Bird
Chapter 1364: Azure Flying Bird
As Zasso struggled to digest Alan's message, another group of people walked over. The leader was a ball-like Baltic, and he could be said to have imitated a human noble in his attire. Not to mention wearing a tall hat, he was also wearing a white tuxedo. Every finger on his hand was wearing a golden ring. That walking stick was basically made of gold. The Baltic looked like a walking mole, especially the two big moles that rolled out of his upper lip, and if a few more long beards were glued to him, it would be a living mole.
Seeing Alan from afar, he put on a brilliant smile. He even trotted over and grabbed Alan's arm. He said excitedly, "Today is really a good day in the Great Wasteland. With Lord Alan, the Great Wasteland is bound to be even more lively. We can eat together with Lord Alan."
Alan looked at Zasso, who took Fatty's hand without a trace and patted him on the shoulder. "This is Mr. Gary. Mr. Gary is one of the best merchants in our wasteland. Remember when Mr. Gary first came to the wasteland, he claimed that there was nothing he couldn't buy but something we couldn't think of."
"Oh, does Mr. Gary sell airships?"
"Of course, not to mention airships, even I have starships to sell. Of course, the price is not cheap. But if you want it, I will definitely give you a discount." Big Fatty's eyes widened.
Alan nodded and said, "Then it's settled."
Gary was stunned, "Your Excellency really wants it. Then you have to tell me when I can get it ready."
"There's no hurry. We'll talk about this later. I won't buy the starship for now, but I'm in urgent need of food. I need food for 100,000 people. I wonder if Mr. Gary can get it."
Gary was both shocked and delighted. He was shocked that Alan wanted to buy rations for 100,000 people. This clearly showed that the army outside the city had other actions, not to put on a show. He patted his chest and said, "Yes, yes, not to mention a hundred thousand. If you need it, I can take out food for three hundred thousand people. If you need more, you'll need time to prepare it."
"No, give me a ration of 100,000 people first. It will require at least a month's worth of rations. Please talk to my butler for details." Alan pushed Grace out.
When Gary saw that Grace was blind, he was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, regardless of whether the old butler could see his "sincere" smile. After a few words of courtesy, they went straight to the point. Alan and Zasso walked away. With Alice's full support, there was at least no need for Alan to worry about the use of the army.
At this moment, a burly figure crashed into Allen's eyes. When he saw this person clearly, Allen was obviously stunned. Because he never thought that this person would appear here, the man also glanced at Alan and shouted, "What, can't I just come here?"
It was a woman, a burly woman. She appeared out of place at the party, for when Alan had known her, she had been in and out of the restaurant of the hotel in Green Town. She was Lim, the owner of the Green Town Hotel. However, she had changed into a bloated dress and even had some makeup on her face. She didn't know how Hubble would feel when he saw it, but Ellen was shocked beyond words.
Also shocked was Zha Suo. He couldn't figure out how this woman had the qualifications to give the current communist lord of the wasteland such a'horizontal 'glance. Ignoring Zasuo's shock, Alan made a gesture. The former tactfully walked away and stopped a group of guests heading towards him, so as to give Alan and the other two space to talk. '"Let me guess, Lim, which organization are you in charge of?" Allen's astonishment had faded away when he saw the two figures standing next to each other, and he smiled, "Let me guess. Lim, which organization are you in charge of?"
'"I was the deputy captain of the mercenary group, the Azure Flying Bird. Originally, I had arranged for the captain to recruit some decent fellows in Green Light Town. I didn't expect that there weren't many of them, but I was able to catch a big shot like Lord Alan. Even the captain said that I was lucky." '"The Guild Leader should have come by himself this time, but that bastard said it was easier for me to get along with you, so he sent me here. If I had known better, I would have put on this damn outfit. I wouldn't have come even if I had been beaten to death," Lim said as he tugged at his gown.
Alan suppressed his laughter. The dress was indeed not suitable for a sturdy woman like Lim. It was estimated that the armor was more suitable for her.
Lim let out a long sigh and then said in a deep voice, "I won't talk nonsense, Lord Alan. We Blue Birds hope to have a chance to work with you. As long as you need it, I can provide you with a thousand brave Gatu warriors at any time. As long as you give them enough money, those fellows won't frown even if you want them to die."
"How can a thousand be enough?" '"If I want to recruit mercenaries from you, I have to start at least 5,000. Otherwise, it won't work. Can you Blue Birds accept such a list?" Ellen put the glass on the table beside him.
Lim was still hesitating when a shrill voice shouted, "Yes! Why not?"
Then, a Bar woman came over. She was much more feminine than Lim. She had white hair and dark skin, and there was a mole at the corner of her left eye. Wearing a low-chest gown, the two nephrite jades on his chest almost jumped out, and the waves were so turbulent that it was a spectacular sight. Seeing her, Lim's face darkened as he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Milina, if you don't say that you can't come, what's going on now?"
The woman called Mirina smiled. Although she was much thinner than Lim, she stretched out her hand and pulled Lim, who was two and a half of her size, to the side. "Sister, I'm afraid you won't be able to get along well. Don't worry about following me. Look, if I hadn't arrived in time, I think you would have rejected this lord."
Lim swept away her hand and said, "There are quite a few of us Blue Birds, but we only have about 5,000 people. If you agree, then we don't have to do anything else?"
"Then it depends on what the lord can afford." Milina glanced at Alan ambiguously.
Allen shrugged, "As long as your mercenaries are of good quality, the price is not a problem. But even if you want to hire them, it will take at least a month."
"Our qualities are not bad, especially mine." Milina circled around Alan and whispered, "If Your Excellency tried me, I won't regret it. Oh right, I'm the captain of the Azure Bird."
'"Don't mind, Lord Alan. Our Guild Leader is just an idiot. I hope he didn't scare you. Anyway, if you want 5,000 people, Azure Bird can give it to you. If you want to see the goods, you can contact me at any time. As for the details of the cooperation, I think we can talk about it later. I won't disturb you now."
Then she dragged Milina away, who still didn't forget to give Alan a big glance and complain to Lim endlessly.
The corner of Alan's mouth twitched. He suddenly narrowed his eyes and said, "I don't like strangers standing behind me. It would be bad if I misunderstood them."
A figure flashed out of a pillar behind him. It was also a woman. However, her figure was smaller than Mirina's. She was less than 1.6 meters tall. Her black hair was trimmed to her shoulders. She wore a short one-piece dress that was off-the-shoulder. Her chest was not as spectacular as Mirina's. She chuckled and said apologetically, "Your professional habits have made adults laugh."
"Who are you?"
'"Melody, assassinate the vice president of the Black Heart Guild. I couldn't help but follow the leader of the Blue Bird Guild. Lord Alan, although we aren't as crowded as the Blue Bird Guild, we can provide some services that the Blue Bird Guild can't provide you."
"For example?"
"Assassins or dead men, if you can afford it, I can also serve you." The petite woman blinked her eyes, evidently speaking in a pun.
"What's the difference between an assassin and a corpse?" Ellen knitted his eyebrows with a headache.
"Of course there is. If an assassin fails to hit the target, he will flee for thousands of kilometers. After the mission cannot be completed, we will still make a contract to compensate you accordingly. As for the dead, they will never stop until their goal is achieved. They can do anything to complete the mission, even if they die together, they will still complete the mission."
"Sounds good. Black heart, right? I remember."
Melody flipped his hand and a heart-shaped crystal appeared in his palm. "If you need it, please break this crystal at any time. I will be there immediately. To show my sincerity, I promise that Lord Alan will only charge you half for the first service. Also, there is a message."
"What news?"
"The Shadow Army branch in Demonic Shadow Empire was the one who attacked you at the gate. The Shadow Army is led by Hidden Demon Ramo and specializes in intelligence and assassination of VIPs. Don't ask me where their branch is because I don't know. Even if I do, I can't tell you." Melody retreated, smiling as he took his leave.
Alan had seen quite a few people during the night. Compradors, union chairmen, organization leaders, etc. This also depicted a complicated structure of power in the Great Wasteland. Bone King Zasuo and the others were just big shots on the surface. Beneath them, there were even mercenary groups like Milina and Melody, assassinating guilds, and other organizations. These people were either allies, secretly competing, or even enemies.
Thinking about it, the two empires of Demonic Shadow Empire and Dobia would probably not be so calm. In places where Autarchs could not see, there would always be other characters active. After the banquet, Alan still got on the land car and returned to his residence. Looking at the street outside the car window, he suddenly whispered, "This is really an interesting place."
"I don't think so." Said Trisley, looking out of the window and saying, "I've seen too much of it. I'm starting to miss home."
Then, as if she knew that she had made a mistake, she turned her face away. Looking at her expression, Alan knew that she was unwilling to mention the so-called home, so he swallowed the question that was about to come to his mouth.
