Summon of The Sword novel Chapter 1564

The blade of the Guardian Sword was as snow white as ever without a trace of blood, even though it had just killed so many mercenaries.

It terrified the mercenary leader even more.

After some hesitation, the mercenary leader finally said, "My name is Asa. I'm the leader of stray mercenary regiments around here. I have dozens of men under me. Crosac's Blackbeard came to me two weeks ago and offered me money to get him Ronald's head. I had no choice but to agree... Blackbeard is the leader of Crosac's fixed mercenary regiments. I couldn't say no!"

Stray mercenary regiments referred to mercenary regiments that traveled around and received various jobs and deployments to earn a living.

Fixed mercenary regiments usually referred to mercenary organizations rooted in a city and received various commissions and assignments from within the city or provide the city protection.

Stray mercenary regiments had fewer members, with most ranging from a few to a few dozen. Few regiments exceeded a hundred people.

Fixed mercenary regiments were different. Fixed mercenary regiments were not much different from regular soldier regiments. Besides, stray mercenary regiments were no match for fixed mercenary regiments. Fixed mercenary regiments had 300 to 1,000 members!

Hearing the word "Blackbeard", Ronald quickly climbed out from under the car.

"I know, I know. Blackbeard is the leader of the Black Gold Flower Mercenary Regiment, one of Crosac's three major fixed mercenary regiments. Blackbeard is powerful and on good terms with Crosac."

After hearing Ronald's statement, Sean asked, "Do you have a problem with Blackbeard?"

"No, I've never seen him!"

Ronald quickly shook his head.

Ronald wondered why Blackbeard had hired such a stray mercenary regiment to intercept and kill him since he had never met or talked to Blackbeard before.

It was strange.

Sean mused for a moment before saying, "Looks like the situation in the City-State Union is more complicated than I expected..."

After a pause, Sean looked back at the mercenary leader, Asa, and asked, "What else do you know?"

"I... I really don't know anything else."
