Tom now finally understood why the group of linen men just now were just the lowest commoners, but they dared to contradict nobles like Constantino, and even threatened the latter.
Co-authored by The Lainmondi family has lost control of the Scaled City, but Tom still doesn't understand what Herodotus is doing with so many rabble.
Fighting a war is not just based on which side has more people. Guys like this who rush into the battlefield wearing single clothes and holding farm tools without training, even if the number is ten times that of the regular army on the opposite side, will only be killed in the end.
Son.
However, Tom, a two-year-old Christian, couldn't figure out the internal struggle within the Silver Moon Church, so he didn't think about it.
He entered the Scaled City just to save people. After getting the pass, he said goodbye to Constantino.
Before leaving, Constantino warned Tom repeatedly, asking them not to cause trouble in the city, and the captain of the Black Dog Guard naturally agreed to it.
After Constantino left, Tom planned to find a place to stay.
I didn't expect that such a simple thing would lead to trouble again.
Because the new troops have been carrying out trials and robberies all over the city, almost all the shops in the city are closed, and the hotels are of course no exception.
Tom and others searched most of the city, but couldn't find a place for them to stay.
Although the soldiers of the Black Dog Guard don't mind sleeping directly on the roadside, the comfort is second to none. The key is that considering the current atmosphere in the city, it is not safe to do so.
Maybe I'll run into those new troops who are trying to steal the spotlight.
Tom looked at Redio and found that the latter was also looking at him. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised in a sneer, "Captain Jerry wouldn't ask Merlin for help for such a thing, would he?"
Tom was not angry, but said to Redio, "If I can find a place to sleep before dark, then you will be my servant for three days.
"I have always had a wish since I was a child. I want a arrogant noble to be my servant. Although you are no longer a noble, you are still quite arrogant, so I think I can make do with it.
of."
"Let's bet. If you can't find it, then you can be my servant and carry the urinal for me."
"fair enough."
After talking, Tom continued to lead the team forward and walked two more streets. This time, he finally encountered an open shop.
The laughter and the singing of minstrels could be heard from a distance.
"It seems I'm lucky." Tom smiled.
Redio's face looked a little gloomy. He looked up at the sign on the door, Cyclops Tavern, and was about to walk in.
Unexpectedly, I was stopped by two sturdy twin guards at the door, "Hey, kid, the pub is closed today."
As soon as the guard finished speaking, the door of the tavern was pushed open, and a drunken bearded man stumbled out.
Regardless of the fact that there were so many people outside, he directly showed his little brother, making it easier on the roadside.
"You don't call this opening the door?" Redio's face became even more gloomy.
"That's right, so what?" The guard on the left patted the battle ax on his waist and grinned.
At this time, Tom came over and threw a silver coin, "Are you from the Red Wolf Mercenary Group?"
The guard on the left took the money and put away the joking look on his face, "The Red Wolf Mercenary Group was disbanded six years ago."
"I know, because of what happened to the Graton family. It's a pity. Wolf Claw is a good leader, but he trusts those nobles too much."
"The nobles can't be trusted." The guard on the left echoed, and then asked, "My friend, which mercenary group are you from?"
His tone was much more polite than before.
"I'm Tom, everyone calls me Funny Tom. I don't have a fixed mercenary group, but I have cooperated with many mercenary groups."
"Are you Tom, that funny Tom?" the guard on the left widened his eyes like bells in surprise.

"No offense, but everyone talks about you, the one who talks about you..."
"I don't have much hair left, right?" Tom shook his black hair, "Fortunately, there are still miracles in this world, and this time the miracle happened to happen to me.
"
"This is incredible." The guard on the left exclaimed, while the guard on the right nodded although he still didn't speak.
He also stretched out his head in front of Tom, and looked at it carefully several times, as if he wanted to see some flaws in it, but now every strand of the hair on Tom's head was genuine.
Tom even took the initiative to push up his bangs to show him the scalp underneath.
"You have to change your nickname." The guard on the left said, and at the same time opened the door of the tavern behind him.
Tom left a few lizard warriors watching the carriage, while he took Redio and the others inside.
"Why did they let you in but not me?" Redio asked.
"Obviously, this is a mercenary tavern, which is why the new soldiers dare not come here to cause trouble." Tom said.
"You once worked as a mercenary, and you were quite famous?"
"Well... there are indeed many people who have heard of my name." Tom rubbed his nose and said to the waitress on the side, "Bring me five glasses of ale, and I also want six guest rooms."
"The ale will be here soon, but the rooms are already full."
"Then do you know where else in the city we can take weary travelers?" Tom tossed out another silver coin as a tip.
"Go to the lame Gif, he can arrange a place for you."
"Where is Cripple Giff?"
The waitress pursed her lips in one direction and said, "That's the one by the wall who is guessing coins with others."
"Thank you very much."
Tom then walked over to Giff, who had just guessed heads or tails wrongly, lost a lot of money, and was sulking.
After hearing Tom explain his purpose, he said directly, "Six rooms, one gold lion a day."
"You're robbing, my friend."
"No, this is a very fair price." Lame Giver said, "You and your people don't look like you are a cheap person, and you definitely don't have good intentions when you come to Scaled City at this time.
"But don't worry, I don't have any objections to this, and I don't care what you plan to do. Not only that, I can also ensure that you are protected from the harassment of the New Army scum outside. One gold lion a day, the price is very reasonable."
"How do I know you're not lying to us?" Redio said calmly.
The lame Giff stretched out his hand and ordered another glass of ale, "Reputation is the most important thing in our business. You can ask around in the tavern to see if I, Giff, have ever betrayed any of my customers."
"You are also a local, right? Are you really not worried about what bad things we do in the city?" Redio was still doubtful.
Giver sneered, "You are from outside the city, haven't you seen what's happening here? I don't think this city can get worse than it is now."
