Chapter 50: The City Lord's Embrace

After glancing at Monte, Rocky asked, "If you were to train the Guard Corps of Thunderhawk City, how long do you think it would take before the Guard Corps is capable of actual combat?"

"My Lord, I…"

Caught off guard by the sudden question, Monte was at a loss for words and simply stood there stupefied.

However, Rocky did not press him and soon looked around before walking over to the service counter in the hall to purchase a task receiver.

The Mercenary Guild's task receiver was indeed a very convenient gadget, not only could it check task information anytime and anywhere, but it also allowed for constant contact with the Guild to complete the handover of tasks. The only issue was that it was not cheap; a palm-sized receiver cost a whopping five hundred gold coins, which really made Rocky wince.

But despite the pain, Rocky still bought one, believing that the investment of five hundred gold coins would definitely bring him a return several times over.
