When everyone saw the person’s face clearly, they gasped.

“It’s the grade B mercenary Philip and Grade B mercenary Osme. They’re both super geniuses.”

Someone in the crowd immediately refuted. “Mike isn’t very old, right? He’s already single-handedly killed a 3-star heaven-tier gold-striped Gray Wolf King and Gray Snake Castle’s master, Carpenter. In my opinion, Mike’s strength isn’t inferior to the two of them. It’s even higher than the two of them.”

Hearing this, everyone put on a look of deep agreement.

Osme was not very happy to hear this, but she also disdained to argue with a random passerby, so she looked at Mike arrogantly and asked, “What kind of price can you offer? Say It.”

Mike shook his head.

Osme frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”

Mike said, “I don’t know the market price, so I leave the right to offer to those who meet the standard and sincerely join me... the people of Dragon Castle.”

Philip laughed loudly and said, “You are indeed an extraordinary person.”

Philip released his heaven-tier 3-star spiritual power, then he said, “My strength has already been proved. Now I want to offer a price. It’s very easy for me to join. It doesn’t matter if I have a monthly payment or not, but I want more resources, and I want to spar with you.”

As soon as he said this, the crowd immediately exploded,

someone said, “He actually wants resources. Usually, they are used to make heaven-tier armor sets. I didn’t expect Philip to ask for more resources. I don’t think Mike will agree.”

Hearing this, Mike also smiled bitterly and said, “That’s fine. However, I will test you for a few months first. If you don’t meet the conditions, I will immediately dismiss you.”

Philip smiled and said, “Deal.”

Seeing that Philip had joined, Osme imitated him and released her heaven-tier 3-star spiritual power. Then, she said, “My price is also very simple. Not only do I want a monthly payment, I also want an annual payment. Every year, I want ten percent of the total value of goods. You must hand it over to me within a year.”

Mike raised his head and said seriously, “One percent.”

Osme’s brows were tightly knitted. She said, “There’s no way you can do business like this. Cutting off nine-tenths of the total value in one go. You clearly do not want me to join.”

Mike shook his head and said, “There’s no way you can do business like this. With your request, you’ve exceeded regular employment value. Moreover, you haven’t proven to me that your ability is worthy of this price. I can’t accept it.”

Osme’s willow-like eyebrows were tightly knitted. She said, “I’m not willing to accept it. How about this? Five percent. I’ve already reduced it by half. That’s enough sincerity. How about it?”

Mike shook his head and said, “No, it’s still not enough sincerity. If you’re really sincere, then let’s make it one-eightieth. How about it? My increase is much greater than your decrease.”

Osme snorted and said, “One-fiftieth, or no deal.”

Mike nodded and said, “Actually, I also think that one-fiftieth is quite reasonable.”

Osme walked to Mike’s side in a huff, and Philip stood beside Mike with a smile on his face.

Mike asked, “Who else will come? As long as the conditions are met, I can take it. As long as the price is right, I can sign a contract with you.”

“I’ll do it.” A thin middle-aged man with a stubble walked over. He released his spiritual power, and it was actually high-level 4-stars, one star higher than both of them.

The man said, “My conditions are very simple. I want the Dragon Blood, and I want the light and dark attributes. Every month, you must provide me with one drop. From the month that you hired me, you have to pay me. I don’t have time to wait for the probation period.”

Mike was stunned for a moment and said, “Okay, but your contract with me can not be the same as the two of them.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The middle-aged man did not wait for Mike to finish and said, “That is not a problem, but you have to show me your sincerity first to show that I am not wasting my time.”

Mike stood up and looked at the man in surprise. He waved at him and walked out of the door. Then, he drew a barrier between Mike and summoned Eve.

Mike looked at the man and said, “This is my Summoned Beast, a heaven-tier magical beast. She has both light and dark elements. She can change its form freely, just enough to meet your requirements.”

When the man saw Eve, his eyes gradually brightened. He was just about to walk up and look at Eve carefully when Mike pulled Eve back into the summoning barrier.

The man looked at Mike with pleading eyes.

Mike said, “If you can sign a contract with me today, you can bring back a year’s worth of compensation today. To be honest, I’m still a little worried because I once signed a contract with another group of people, but most of them betrayed me. Only a small portion of them are still alive, though.”

The man’s Adam’s apple moved as he said, “I can sign a contract with you. I can complete any dangerous mission.”

Mike looked at the man in surprise. In his opinion, he was already taking advantage of the man’s situation. Not only did this man not care, he actually wanted to increase the price himself.

Mike smiled at the man and said, “Can you tell me why you agreed to such an outrageous condition?”

The man frowned, and he said, “Although I don’t want to talk about it, considering that you are my future teammate, I will tell you about it. I’m doing it for my daughter. She has a very strange disease and needs to take the Dragon’s Blood regularly every month. In fact, her mother also died because of it.”

Mike looked at the man again. The man’s face was filled with sorrow.

Mike nodded and said, “I will give you a monthly payment, but it may be less than that of Osme and Philip. Also, you have to sign a lifelong contract with me. If you do... I will take care of your daughter for you.”

The man glanced at Mike and seemed to doubt whether he had heard it wrong.

Mike’s conditions were not harsh. In fact, they could even be considered generous. If his daughter was not sick, he would not have been as generous as Mike.

The man nodded heavily.

Mike smiled and asked, “I still don’t know your name.”

“My name is Bello.”

“My name is Mike.”

Mike led the man into the hall.. The hall had returned to its usual hustle and bustle.
