I Become a Landlady in the Game World-Chapter 805 - 393: Hope Village Is Being Promoted to a Town (Part 4)
After all, they are now people of Hope Village.
As for calling Wolf a Viscount, it was merely out of respect for the dead.
Sure enough, Bayer’s topic instantly caught their attention.
"Did... did Viscount Wolf escape?" Basel was the first to ask.
In fact, when Nicholas returned, they had wanted to ask.
But due to the special circumstances, they didn’t have the courage.
They had a vague feeling that their Lord’s situation wasn’t looking good.
However, when they asked Nicholas, he kept his mouth shut and said nothing, making them even more afraid to ask further.
Now with Bayer speaking up, they seized the chance.
At this moment, captains like Worley and Norris were also looking eagerly.
They now had no feelings for Wolf, but they were considering Wolf’s background.
To be a lord of an aggressive territory, he couldn’t possibly have no background, and that magic array he used on them in the end was a deadly weapon too.
They were really worried whether, in Hope Village, this person might make a comeback, or send someone secretly to kill them.
Considering the other’s vengeful nature, the possibility was high.
Therefore, they were actually pondering whether to leave Hope Village for a stronger territory. After all, with so many territories, the other wouldn’t be able to find them.
But Bayer’s words instantly drew their attention away.
If Wolf had died, they would be safe, and Hope Village being a powerful territory, staying here wasn’t out of the question.
"Since our village chief and Lord Long went together, it’s surely resolved. Apart from Nicholas, there were no survivors." Bayer said confidently.
Since the Lord had gone, and had taken Lord Long, he believed there wouldn’t be any survivors.
As his words fell, everyone’s gaze immediately turned to Nicholas.
Under their gaze, Nicholas solemnly nodded.
Just obliterated, truly.
He was shaken to the point that even though he had returned, he dared not easily speak out, otherwise, how would he answer for it?
With Nicholas’s response, several pairs of eyes showed a mix of surprise and delight.
Wolf was dead, truly dead!
The great burden in their hearts completely lifted.
No one would come to settle scores with them, and even if they did, it would be with Hope Village.
Bayer watched as they seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "So, what plans do you have next? Continuing as soldiers or forming a team of professionals?"
With Bayer’s words, Basel and the others immediately realized his true intent, he was here to recruit them.
They couldn’t help but be tempted.
They had grown accustomed to military life, and if asked to become mercenaries, they certainly wouldn’t be accustomed to it. But if they continued as soldiers, not every territory would accept outsiders; even if accepted, not every territory treats outsider soldiers well.
As for Hope Village, willing to save their territory, how could it possibly fall short?
Previously, they just considered the possibility that Hope Village wouldn’t take them as soldiers, given they used to be enemies.
But now, with Bayer extending an olive branch, it was hard not to be tempted.
"To become soldiers of Hope Village, are there any conditions? And will the treatment be the same for all soldiers?" Basel asked.
The weapons and equipment provided to Hope Village’s soldiers had them envious during the battle! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
After all, from this aspect alone, it was clear how much Hope Village values its soldiers, and if they could become part of it, why not?
"As long as you are soldiers within the territory, the treatment is naturally the same. Even if you are not soldiers, if you go to battle for the territory, you can receive equipment, but non-soldiers must return the equipment to the territory after the battle, or you can buy it at a low price." Bayer gave a simple introduction.
With his introduction, Basel’s group’s eyes brightened a bit.
"How can we become soldiers then?" They didn’t think such good welfare would come without conditions.
"Our territory’s requirements for soldiers, firstly, is contribution; over 500 contribution points to the territory allows one to apply. After a basic investigation, you would enter the recruit camp, then undergo a period of training. Qualified individuals stay while the unqualified are eliminated; there’s rarely elimination. During training, the basic benefits of soldiers are provided. Additionally, soldier promotion is very transparent, based on contribution; once sufficient, you can apply for promotion... Moreover, after becoming a soldier, you can have four days off each month. If injured due to missions, the territory will take responsibility; if sick, a certain proportion of nutritional fee will be provided. If disabled, the territory will arrange a job position and ensure the soldier’s life. If a soldier dies, the territory will also take care of their family, exempting children’s tuition fees, and providing living subsidies to parents or spouse..."
