It turned out that they were a D-rank mercenary group called the Heat Mercenary Group. Mercenary groups were divided into eight ranks: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, and SS. The promotion of mercenary groups depended on the number of missions completed and the difficulty to apply to a powerful human organization in the Heaven Dream Continent, the Mercenary Union. This time, they had received a mission and needed to find an item in the Magical Beast Forest. It should be a relatively common item in the periphery of the forest. Who knew that after searching for a few days, they still could not find it. Helplessly, everyone could only continue to search deep into the forest. Who knew that they would encounter this pack of magic wolves? It could be said that not only did they not complete the mission, but they also suffered a huge loss. With so many people dying, just the pension alone would be enough to make their small mercenary group go bankrupt.
As for why they were called mixed demons, it was because most of the demons had black hair and colorful eyes, which was extremely rare on this continent. Moreover, their eyes were black, which was even rarer. Besides the oriental people on this continent who had black hair and black eyes, only the mixed demons looked like this. They were the products left after the Great War between Gods and Demons. It could be said that they were hated by everyone on the continent. The Eastern people were also unlucky and fell into an unexpected disaster. The reason was that many mixed-blood demons had no place to escape and had infiltrated the Eastern Empire. As a result, they were finally destroyed by the anger of the people more than 2,000 years ago. The powerful Eastern Empire could not stop the surging crowd. Almost all the human races in the Heaven Dream Continent raised their weapons and attacked the Eastern Empire, which eventually led to the destruction of the Eastern Empire. Until now, countless Eastern tribesmen had become the slaves of the so-called nobles on this continent. Moreover, they were riding such powerful mounts, so they mistakenly thought that they were a group of powerful mixed-blood demons.
Upon hearing this, Long Ao cast a Rain Curse on them to heal their injuries. Suddenly, streams of milky white light shot down from the sky and slowly spread over their bodies, slowly healing their injuries. An hour later, the group of people's injuries had completely recovered. At this time, everyone was no longer as afraid as before. Although the aura emitted by the demonic tigers was still powerful, they were all isolated by Long Ao and could not affect them. The middle-aged man in the lead walked to Long Ao and suddenly knelt down, saying loudly,""You're a good person. I, Butansby, have misunderstood you. Please punish me!”
Long Ao quickly helped him up and frowned.""I'm most afraid of people kneeling for no reason. There's a saying in my hometown that goes 'those who don't know are not sinful'. Since the matter is already in the past, I think we should forget about it! You're a magnanimous man, and I admire your character. Now, you'd better consider what your next step is!”。
"I don't know what to do either. With so many people dead, it seems like our mercenary group won't be able to complete the mission. After we go back, we'll definitely disband. After giving out the compensation to our brothers, we really don't have any extra activity funds.”，Butansby said to Long Ao in a hoarse voice full of regret and shame. His eyes were filled with tears as he looked at his brothers behind him, looking extremely helpless and sad.
"Leader, we all agreed to fight for a world. You said that you would lead us out of this difficult and dangerous place. Have you forgotten? I, Kule, have not forgotten what you once said. Although our brothers have suffered heavy losses today, we can still continue to complete the task and earn money to support hundreds of people in our family. Look at our eyes and determination. Don't give up! Guild Leader!" A muscular man with fiery red hair and a resolute face walked out from behind the crowd. His brown eyes were filled with tears as he knelt in front of Butansby and shouted loudly.
Everyone in the mercenary group also rushed forward and knelt in front of Butansby. They shouted loudly for him to stay and begged him not to leave or disband the mercenary group. Butansby looked at Long Ao helplessly for help. The expression in his eyes had already conveyed his inner thoughts. Obviously, he did not want to disband the mercenary group, but the predicament in front of him was obviously not something he could solve by himself. Long Ao understood that these men were true people, but they were at the end of their rope. If he could help them, he would definitely be able to help them get through the current predicament. However, with Butansby's current state of mind, he still needed someone to remind him. Thinking of this, Long Ao looked at him calmly and said word by word,"If you want to give up on them, I will take back what I said to you just now. A man lives to take responsibility, not to avoid it. I can see your frustration and helplessness from what you said just now, but life still has to go on. You still have to walk down the road ahead step by step. There is a saying in my world that goes,'there will always be a way out when the car comes to the mountain'. You don't have to be too anxious. There will always be a solution to the problem.”，Long Ao spoke in a low tone, deeply touching the man in front of him.
Butansby's eyes gradually recovered from the confusion to the resolution from the beginning. His entire body emitted a strong fighting spirit again. He looked at Long Ao in front of him gratefully and slowly explained the purpose of their mission. It turned out that they were looking for the blood of a relatively common demon hamster creature. It was said that their blood had a miraculous effect on treating a cold disease in people's bodies. Therefore, a noble issued this mission, hoping that someone could help find this blood. He offered a reward of 100 gold coins. These creatures were usually used to staying underground. If they were unlucky and came out to hunt, it would be difficult to easily find their tracks. However, the outer area of the Magical Beast Forest was their main activity area, so there were often people who caught these creatures there. Everyone thought that this mission would be easy to complete, but they did not expect such a change to happen. It was really unexpected. After Long Ao listened to his description, he said, He immediately released his divine sense to search the ground. Not long after, he found a nest of demon gophers a few hundred meters away. They were lying in the hole he had dug, sleeping. Little did they know that danger had unknowingly descended on them.
Long Ao casually made a hand seal, and a few fat gophers emerged from the ground. They then flew in front of Long Ao and floated in the air, struggling with all their might. It was obvious that they were extremely afraid of the environment in front of them. The mercenaries were overjoyed when they saw this. A few agile ones had already grabbed a dagger and each of them grabbed all the gophers to bleed. Soon, a full bottle of rat blood was filled. All the mercenaries looked at Long Ao with gratitude. The help he had given him was deeply engraved in his heart. Some of them even looked at him with a burning admiration. They were obviously shocked by his capture method. At this moment, Butansby walked forward and shouted,"From today onwards, I, Butansby, announce that the benefactor in front of me will always be a friend of our Fire Mercenary Corps. In the future, no matter what requests they have, we must satisfy them unconditionally. Even if we have to go to hell, we will have no regrets! Did you hear that?" After saying this, he turned around and shouted at all the members of the mercenary group.
"I heard it!" The mercenaries shouted. His majestic voice resounded throughout the entire arena, reverberating in the air for a long time.
