Haroon

Harun has an idea. He takes the road to Mt. Inge. There, the crew is focused on training, avoiding the chaos.

Harun summoned the mercenary commanders and briefed them on the outcome of the meeting later and asked for their opinions when he arrived at the barracks of the mountain with the fastest skill.

"Commander, shouldn't we secure a castle too?"

"That's right. Let's get a proper base this time."

Myrus leaps out in a glare, as Taniella says.

Harun was delighted to hear their reactions when he thought of the inner stone and the Manasik Mine three days away, but he also had to hear the opinions of the other crew members. Siege Wars are battles with many casualties.

Harun looks at the rest of the crew.

"I agree. The stronghold north of the Hookran Mountains is too small for our increasingly large mercenaries. Even if it is not a mining castle, there will be many comforts for our mercenaries when they take the castle."

Tino shines his eyes. Apparently, the crew was all thinking that. Everyone agreed to the reason.

"We have the Wind Merchant Guild, so it would be better to have a place with easy access than a castle in the mine."

When Donnes mentioned the top of the Storm Guild, everyone realized that occupying the castle would play a significant role in the future growth of the Storm Mercenaries and the Merchant Guild.

"What do you think of Sir Dylan?"

Only Dylan remains silent. You must have some idea.

"That's not a bad comment. The Devil Mountains will be clearer in the future than the village of Calflan adjacent to Fuchran, and this side has a much better location. The only thing I'm concerned about is the management and defense of the castle. As mercenaries, we have to move around from time to time, but we don't know if we can handle it properly."

The faces of the excited crew became a little more serious just then. Since it is a kind of freedom that is outside the control of the three empires, it is not something you can rest assured that you have won the castle once. It is possible for other forces to overtake the castle at any time.

"Hmmm! If I'm wrong, I might as well give you a dog." "

It's because the expression is a bit dramatic. Myrus is not wrong. If many mercenaries leave the castle after accepting a large quest, there is no way to defend them.

I couldn't help but overhear the people who were talking just now.

"…… Commander!"

Remi. He hesitates, but he seems to have a good idea.

"Tell me."

"Why don't we relocate our Akas instead of the Imperial settlers after we take the castle?" "

"The Aka?"

"Yes. I spoke with Tantun Village through Essen, and they're gathering the Akas to the safest Node Village on the Terrain because of the horses. That number is already close to 1,000, and the warriors alone are over 300, and the ammunition from each Node is suffering from a problem with food supply or residence."

Harun's eyes glow. The Akas, who have been hunting wild horses for generations, have the strength to defend themselves even if they leave because of the quest. With a solid wall more than 5 meters, they will be able to defeat any invader, as well as the demons.

"That's a good idea, boss. If the Akas take the castle, not only will we be able to carry out our quests with confidence, but we will also be able to supply our best and most reliable personnel. It's a good way to use it right now, and it's a good way to do it for the future. If you raise young Aka Warriors properly, you will become a great mercenary."

Taniella agreed with me immediately.

"Our gale mercenaries don't have to be masters of the castle. You can become the owner of the Aka. We just have to be friends with the Aka and help each other out."

"I feel the same way, commander. This is a mountain tribe, including the original Aka. We can stay as friends."

Myrus and Dylan also raise their hands, not thinking for long, that's a good idea.

'Yes! We don't have to be the masters of the castle. If the inhabitants of the castle are Aka, the castle should be theirs.'

"Good, then we'll do that."

At Harun's words, the Aka crew does not scream, but smiles brightly. As long as there is a fortress like this castle or Matsurut when you come here, the Aka won't have to live a hard life. The elders of the tribe were reluctant to build a solid pile, saying they would have to go to the land of abundance where the Ten Thousand Year Kingdom would one day arise, but times have changed. Legends are just legends.

"Commander, where are my angels? Our tribe is similar to the Akas. A group of refugees are gathering in a nearby village during the day."

"The same is true of our Burka situation."

Thor and Titan cautiously complain about Harun's decision right away. Taking the Aka alone takes two other tribes. However, it is not easy for them to handle one castle with their own power. I've heard reports of Darkness' power going into each castle increasing rapidly.

"Captain, I'd rather take three. Look, right next to the center of Mats Plain, there are four castles that are very far away, with no mines and no farming. They're on point, but they don't have any other revenue streams, so other forces certainly don't stand a chance. Of course, the Darkness is not going to be strong."

Henny points to the inside of the mountains, some distance from Tantun Village. They are useless castles, unless they are a mountain tribe that lives on the hunt, as she said.

Harun confirmed that the place was, sadly, three or four days' walk from the stone and lit up his eyes. We already know the location of the Manassik Mine from the Tacals he rescued, but the castles he pointed out are surrounding it.

The crew's opinions are as if they were peering into their insides, and their fists are clenched secretly.

"These four castles are located on the road to Matsu Plain. It's not a place where precious goods can be found or farmed, but it's the perfect place for our mountain tribes to live."

Remido empowers Heny. I don't know if I've seen it in person, but according to the information gathered, the other castles have been built to house up to 5,000 people. That's enough for all the nearby Akas to live together.

Harun looks at the three tortures and Tio's face one at a time. They were all nodding.

"Very well. Let's take three of these four castles. We don't have enough power on our own, so we'll have to mobilize all the nearby mountain tribes. So let's come up with a detailed plan. Dion!"

"Yes, commander."

"Lead the rest of the crew to the perimeter immediately."

"I won't be able to overhear a rat."

Dion places his crew in the element. With more than 100 men on the move, the gap is tight, forming an impenetrable iron barrier.

As everyone expected, Fort Matsurut soon became saturated. Many foreigners came to see the announcement of the three empires on the broadcast.

"All the large guilds made by the estramorwn have arrived. Thanks to you, our Information Guild is generating enormous amounts of information."

Every day, Hersh comes to Harun, who looks a little tired, but smiles because he's been carrying a bag of gold coins for a long time. The Imperial Intelligence Guild had detailed maps of the castle that mainly occupied the mines with the help of Harun.

"The castles in the mines must be popular, right?"

"Of course. Moreover, if you take the castles, you will be given control of them in the New Theon Empire and the Mino Empire, along with their nobility for at least five years, and everyone will be watching you."

"How about north of the Devil Mountains?"

"The castles to the Pyrin Empire are not very popular. If there are castles on Mats Plain with good farmland, they're in rough places and have little to gain, so I don't think there's any power there."

It was as I thought.

"What are the expected outcomes of the Civil War?"

An Imperial Intelligence Guild would have already simulated it.

"It will be difficult at first, but if time passes, the estramorwn will take the castle. If you can harness the support of the Horse Towers and Temples and the potential for resurrection, you have plenty of possibilities."

Despite the lack of strong numbers, pushing it to 10,000 guild members won't be easy to stop even if Darkness has the most powerful force. Moreover, most of them have read the hunting grounds and have increased their average level a lot.

"What about the others?"

"New forces have become at the forefront of mercenaries and nobles of the Old Teron Empire. It is also fascinating to be able to exercise control with an independent tax administration, but it is also fascinating to be free from the political influence of the three empires."

"I see."

Horses are the dominance. In other words, this is your chance to be king. Although the kingdom is small, of course. However, the Devil Mountains are vast, and with their abilities they can expand as much as they want. There were many plains within the Devil Mountains that could be farmed. It's just that it has not been developed.

In this way, Harun's mission is half successful.

'The rest is now to the three empires, the steeple and the temple.'

Of the 72 castles, Forty-two are among the foreigners and the people of Beyond. There are forty-five castles in total if you add three locations where the mercenaries want to attack. Twenty-two castles, built deep in the mountains, and built and built, have been agreed to be dealt with by three empires, a tower, and a temple.

Harun was determined to do his best to locate the Imperial second client, Darkness' stronghold, if only three castles were to be taken down.

We're almost done with the fort. I met Evelyn in secret and traded information as I had discussed earlier. I also collected all the money for one quest. Pacochu Horse Tower paid for the quest with scrolls and other magical items.

I didn't meet the mercenaries I expected, but I didn't have time to wait any longer.

Now I was thinking of moving quickly with the smallest number of people. The free wizards Taniella and Mirus have not arrived yet, but there is no time to wait for them. Instead, I've instructed them to communicate when they arrive.

'Let's get this over with and get back to reality.'

Important things are also waiting for you in reality. We need to get rid of the dead bunker. Less than a month is left in real time until the day the duck proposed.

Harun recalls yesterday's meeting with the Head of the household. The place where I went to change after seeing the private note was a gorgeous room on the second floor of the inn with the restaurant.

Haebaru was a handsome middle-aged man with a strong body. He came here pretending to be a merchant of the Mino Empire. He greets Harun with a beautiful girl who looks like a secretary.

"You are the famous Hurricane Mercenary Harun."

Just like this, I instinctively felt the pressure to punish people with salutations. His face is relaxed, his attitude is refined, and his eyes sparkle as strongly as those of Chabel Tiger.

Harun's refusal is unknown to him, and he starts talking without a greeting, just like Haebaru.

"I heard you are the Chief Executive Officer of Kowon Union."

The expression of Harun, who has no affection for himself, subtly twitched his face.

"I hear he owes you a great debt. For now, thank you."

It's not right to just nod your head while thanking you for your words. Harun's eyebrows twitch in the typical image of Noble, whose authority has doubled to the bone marrow.

"Well, I'll give you a heads-up."

In Harun's cold response, the sun-barrow's face shifts slightly, pulling his torso forward and straightening up.

"Excuse me for doing this. I never thought I'd owe you anything. I thought you were just saying...."

It also changes the way you talk. Either Yerim does not receive the faith of the Haebaru or he has tested Harun.

"Never mind. The world is different, so the relationship won't last long."

Was Harun's cynical reaction unexpected? Havaru looks sorry.

"No. I've been so overwhelmed by the situation at Union lately that I've been chased out of here because I haven't been able to listen to my son properly. Do we know what happened?"

Havaru has finally shown some respect, but Harun still doesn't like it.

"That's all you need to hear later from Yeem, and let's hear the reason why you asked to meet me here."

"Invited reasoning? Oh, come on! I came out without knowing..."

Harun makes a real impression. I don't know if Yerim made a mistake or if he was so busy as to say with his mouth that he didn't have time to hear it, but he only came out because he had a promise.

"I heard from my acquaintance in my world that it was noisy about drugs, and I guess that's what happened."

"How do you do that?"

"So, did you agree to reduce the barrier to Section E?"

"……"

At Harun's successive words, his pupils widen and his face stiffens. Interest was baffled at how he knew highly confidential information that no one yet knew.

"Let's start this conversation knowing that I have that much information."

"……"

"Did you hear that you're taking on a request?"

The woman who accompanied him in her late twenties opened her mouth instead of opening her mouth. She was a woman with outstanding beauty, no matter where she was.

"I thought you were an executive secretary, but you were Yeem's sister?"

I tried to say it because the facial contours of the force were similar.

"That's right. I'm a trainee of the year."

"As you may know, I am Harun of the gale mercenaries. Now you're saying the right thing."

Harun smiles bitterly and unravels his hard face. There was one thought that passed through his mind.

'You're the one who's acting against you. If you're strong, then you're weak.'

It was not easy to say, but sometimes there are those who are like this. At least they have confidence in themselves. And it is his judgment that many of these people deserve it.

"To be precise, I didn't say I would accept the request, I said I would. But the matter was too big for him to be responsible for, so he asked me to meet with the person behind him."

"What's the big deal? Aren't you overly confident that you're not one of us?"

Unlike her bright face, her cold eyes were shining bright.

"Isn't it a big deal if you have information about the Dead Bunker that Darkness operates in secret and the mines that Human Guard operates? This is a different reaction from what Yerim said, so we're wasting our time. Well, if you're not interested, I'm out."

Harun makes sure they're not ready to talk to him, and then gets up without hesitation. If it's really important information, I'll get right to it, but at least the two of them didn't seem to think so until he grabbed the door hook and left.

Harun opened the door and thought he had done nothing, but he was relieved to see how Kowon Union had lived for a long time. It was comforting because the average resident had even had a short but conversational conversation with important people he didn't see in his lifetime.

As Harun steps down the stairs, you hear an urgent sound.

"Wait!"

"Hold on!"

The sea bass and the apprentice rush out screaming. Because of this, the eyes of those who filled the hallway on the second floor and the first floor were drawn to them, but they hurriedly rushed in and grabbed Harun's armor sleeve.

"I don't think I have anything else to say."

"No, I do! We must talk!"

"That's right. We heard it out of the blue for a while."

They dragged Harun back to his room. Harun pretends he can't win. He goes back to his room as they lead him.

The trainer steps back into the room and whispers something to the warrior standing by the door. When the warrior called to the first floor, the fighters who were occupying both tables of the guests moved quickly and sealed the doors, as well as taking the highest level of vigilance throughout the building.

"My sincerest apologies!"

The seashells and trainers who came into the room bowed down and apologized to Harun.

"Hmm! I don't know if that's an apology, but I'll take it. Have a seat."

The two of them had difficulty recognizing Harun's long hair covering a large part of his face, but they were able to spread their stiff faces as they did not feel the anticipated amount of discomfort in his voice.

"Is it true that our Surin, or Yerim, commissioned the commander to do so?"

The gentle seating exercises seemed to be the most curious. Harun seems to know what a sea trainer usually treats preemptive force in her tone. Even if it wasn't, it was guessable even with the first impression I experienced.

'You've been treated as a child with less iron.'

After thinking that and realizing it? I wanted to establish some dignity for him. People are not easy to change, but I wanted to show them that they can.

"Yes. I'm afraid of using Temples to raise power, so I've been entrusted with the information my father entrusted to me." "

"…… Are you sure?"

The sea training was still an unbelievable face, but a glimmer of joy came to mind. I felt very happy that he was giving up and trying hard. Similar emotions were evoked in the eyes of the Sea Baru.

"I have acquaintances who know great information about your world, as I mentioned earlier. Information held by an individual is fragmented, but it becomes useful once collected and verified. I took the liberty of contacting you with the information they have on their own, because they have no way to contact you or gain proper recognition."

"I trust you. How much information do we have before we make the deal?"

Now the sun-barrow was just watching. It was hard to guess Harun's association with a long hair covering most of his face, but judging by his serious voice, he seemed determined to leave his mind to his daughter rather than to deal with him who seemed to be in his late 20s or older.

"I have detailed information about the location of the Dead Bunker, its defenses, its defenses, and its command system. It also has information about three mines controlled by Human Guard and the location of an underground base with Refining facilities. Well, there's information about GG's entire organization, but at that point, the GPC should be able to tell us a little bit about it."

"…… Phew!"

"Ha!"

The sea bass and the training were already quite surprised, but Harun's words shocked me again. I didn't know they even knew the name of the organization they belonged to. I was shocked before, so I was able to quickly overcome it and take a long sigh to regain my composure.

"I want to know the commission my brother made to the commander and the price he promised."

Clever girl, too. I knew the basics of negotiation.

"All information about the Darkness and GG was targeted. I originally asked you to take on Darkness here in the world, but you know, I imagined the power and power of Darkness, so we can't do it with our mercenaries' abilities alone. I haven't made any promises yet. He said he didn't have the authority to promise you this much information. Instead of arranging a meeting with your powerful people."

"I see. I'll believe you now. In fact, I was very surprised when I didn't expect anyone here to hear such information."

"... Harun."

Havaru recalled the name Harun and recalled the words of his son.

- Father, Harun said that there are storm troopers and Harun in our world who are stationed outside Union. His squadron has enough power to wipe out the Heaven Company. We need to get them in before anyone else does. They're mercenaries, so you can use them as much as you want if you promise to pay them the right price.

I forced Beyond to do what he didn't want to do, and he told me he was a mercenary for some weird shit, and that's the right information. I don't know how his pride drove him to heaven to make out with such a handsome figure, but in the meantime he has not revealed his worth, so he is the proudest son of our sun! '

She has not much desire for her selfishness, and has been thinking about whether Surin, who lives in her own world, can lead the sun.

"This one thing is gonna get us in the ground!" '

Even if an iron banker opens a shield, once you know its location, you can take care of it. To do this, we have been training special forces to operate outside the Union for a long time and upgrading existing weapons.

'Huh-huh-huh! Just by getting this information, we can strengthen our central family position within the GPC.'

Even if Saga swords to defeat her family, even though she has taken control of the military, she will now give up her false greed.

"I want all three."

It was a word of sea training that I had been thinking about for a while.

"Hmm! I don't know if you know this, but the information I trade is of the utmost value."

"It doesn't matter."

Harun's gaze turned toward Haebaru, either by sea training or by looking at him with such an answer. The sea bass nods without delay. The general information about GG is well known to them, but it is not accurate and therefore cross-validation is needed. If they hadn't avoided extinction of their lower tissues due to the recent drug epidemic, Semillon, they wouldn't even know about it.

"Fine. Let me start with the price. Five grains, four square kilometers, 100,000 tons of flour, 100,000 tons of rice..."

Harun merely recites to me what Bell and Ari had asked for. It contained numerous specialty materials and foods, including five-fold graphene, which could not be produced on site or was rarely in stock, and various raw materials and minerals.

At some point, Harun's hand trembles as he writes down what he says. The sheep were transferred, but the content was surprising. The special materials that only Kowon Union could produce, as well as the types and quantities that he wanted, were more than he could have imagined.

"…… 500 liters of acacton, that's all."

"Hooray! Where are you going to set up a new Union?"

The amount of food could last more than 10,000 people for a decade, and advanced machinery and special materials could build enormous bases, even if not Union.

The most valuable of these were quintuple graphene and microsilicone. Both graphene and silicon are important materials for semiconductor and solar power and have the best electron mobility, physical strength and thermal conductivity of materials known to date, but currently only Cowon Union has the technology to produce them.

"I'm afraid I have no idea what's going on. All they have to do is tie up the pieces of information they've gathered together, put together what they want, and make a deal with you."

"Well……."

There are many different types, but there is no connection. The number of acquaintances Harun knew seemed to be very large. By the way, the decision was made because there are too many missing facilities to build a base for 10,000 people to live in.

'Anyway, great forestry. I don't know how our Surin got to know this guy, but we've got no chance.'

"Those things are their share. I'll tell you my reward."

"Go ahead."

"1,000 bottles of potions of each grade, 1,000 scrolls related to attacks and moves, 10 elemental and spirit stones, and 1 million gold in cash."

The nervous face of the sea training loosened a bit. That was as much money as it could be procured from the GPC rooted in the world. The price of reality was so great that I was nervous, but what Harun wanted was to get a lot of potions that were not too difficult.

The rehearsal kept my mouth shut and gave my father his attention. Having not enough money, but because Kowon Union has insufficient physical material, he had to borrow the strength of the other unions, he decided to accept it.

"As long as the information is clear, we'll accept it."

The sea bass leaves without leaving it to the trainees.

"Very well. For the sake of trust, I'll give you half the information."

Harun gave me the video storage he had prepared. It was detailed with footage from the dead bunker that Pat photographed on the Hawk and satellite, as well as information inside the base obtained from Forge. The important part was edited, but the value could be clearly seen by those who knew the content.

Havaru and the seawater drill checked the video and audio of the video machine without breathing properly.

"Holy shit!"

"Once the important parts are filled, we'll be able to eliminate GG's top secret facility, the hidden power of the Dead Bunker, as well as the weak middle organization from Union! Plus, if you know where the mines are controlled by the Human Guard, you won't be able to open your hands to them much later. '

The two women could see the joy they were building on each other's faces.

Harun gives you the coordinates that Azman gave you in advance of where to pick up the goods.

"It's a waste power plant in Section F...."

As soon as he heard the coordinates, he realized where it was. The waste power plant was at the very edge of the barrier. Her and the eyes of the Sea Baru flutter sharply.

If it is, his acquaintances are inside Kowon Union? '

Those who thought they knew everything about Kowon Union except GG and HG couldn't help but revise the idea.

Do you think there's another force unexposed? '

I had such doubts for a moment, but Harun did not give me time to deepen the doubts.

"If you put things in there, one of my acquaintances will hand over a chip with detailed information. All you have to do is clear a five-kilometer radius of the waste power plant."

Even though it's in the barrier, there's nothing around because of the radiation spill. I don't know how he was going to take the goods, but information was important for now.

"Very well. I will have everything I've asked for by the 24th of this month ready."

The sea breeze was the moonlight of position tracking devices among the goods. Even the fact that people who didn't know this kind of advanced information were in Kowon Union made me sick.
