Lu Yu declined invitations to slay dragons from several waves of adventurers. This group of people who joined in the fun even had black iron and fine steel. He didn’t know where they got the courage. They felt that dragon slaying was something they could get involved in.

thing?

Is it possible that people here have the understanding that no matter what kind of monster they face, everyone should not be afraid and quickly gather together to participate in the grand event?

After asking for directions, Lu Yu finally arrived at the city of Kais mentioned by the adventurer.

Kais City belongs to the Grand Empire, and is more tolerant of foreign races than the Kingdom of Yas.

Lu Yu walked on the street with the mist demon and Lulutis. Both pedestrians and guards took a few curious glances. No one made a fuss at all. This combination seemed to be a good choice for the locals.

Commonplace.

A group of cavalry galloped past the main road of the town. Following their orders, some lazy city guards became vigilant. From time to time, people wearing robes and suspected of being magicians climbed onto the city wall.

There were people on both sides of the road who were familiar with the cavalry captain. He asked confusedly: "Don't you have a day off today?"

The cavalry captain did not hide anything from the people around him: "In the wild just now, a large number of adventurers witnessed the appearance of a giant dragon. In order to prevent the dragon from attacking the town, the lord has sent a large number of magicians to monitor suspicious magic fluctuations."

Lu Yu estimated that if it could be concealed, the lord would definitely want to hide it. However, there were too many witnesses in the wild, so he couldn't kill all the adventurers, right?

Sure enough, after the cavalry in the city announced the news of the dragon's appearance, they began to comfort everyone.

"Our lord was once a gold-level adventurer. With him in charge, the dragon will never come back."

"A large number of fourth-level magicians gather together in the city, and even giant dragons are afraid of their magic power."

"The well-trained cavalry has taken the initiative to attack, and they will drive the dragon out of the borders of the Grand Empire!"

Despite the inexplicable self-confidence of this group of people, this response was very swift.

However, Lu Yu still wasn't quite sure.

How did this group of people come to believe that mithril gold can deal with dragons?

Have they really killed a dragon with such strength before?

The people seemed to be easy to fool, and with a series of words, they who were originally gathered on the main road began to disperse and continue to do their own things.

Lu Yu, who had sharp ears, actually heard an old man next to him tucking his clothes, sighing and complaining softly.

"There are murderers in the king, but it has been a whole winter, and no one has been caught. Now there is a dragon coming to Kais City, saying it can slay dragons... I don't think so."

"It turns out it's not easy to fool, I'm just numb." Lu Yu thought.

They have no hope in the abilities of the guards and knights, but even so, what can they do?

You have to live even if the dragon comes, and you have to live even if it doesn't come. Instead of worrying about the dragon that doesn't know when it will come to attack the town, it is better to worry about tomorrow's rations.

Sigrid, who left the team, is back.

Just now, she went to various shops and taverns to observe the local people's trading methods and amounts. After inquiring, she found that gold was circulating in the Grand Empire. Although the amount was not large, they did mint gold coins.

"Do you understand their currency exchange system clearly?"

"It's clear as day."

Lu Yu gave a thumbs up: "Then let's melt the pure silver cakes Andrew gave us and exchange them for currency. Don't exchange too much, it's probably enough for us to buy two horses."

With Yasi's experience as a foundation, Lu Yu only trusted the royal capital when exchanging money. After all, it was the closest to the center of power and had fewer tricks than the border towns.

Sigrid left again. She was already very skilled at doing these things in Yas.

Lu Yu did not plan to stay in Kaisi City. After Sigrid came back with the exchanged coins, they immediately bought horses and planned to continue moving forward.

Just as they passed through Kais City and arrived at the North City Gate, a sharp bird song sounded.

The soldiers who heard the sound quickly closed the city gate. Two magicians appeared under the city gate and opened the magic circle on the city gate.

The people waiting to leave the city were dumbfounded. They did not understand what was happening.

"The lord has ordered that a giant dragon attacked a village by the sea. All the people and livestock in the village were devoured. For the safety of everyone, and to avoid huge losses caused by the dragon's attack on the city, the city gates are temporarily closed. We hope that the residents of the city will work together.

, facing the possible coming dragon disaster."

Hearing this, all the people who were planning to leave the city looked at each other, and after a while, everyone became angry.

This announcement can fool a fool.

For everyone's safety, this is obviously to force everyone to help defend his territory.

As a border town by the sea, Case City has a large floating population. Adventurers, businessmen, and information dealers gather together. Everyone comes here for money. Who would bleed for other people's territory?

If something happens to you, I will run away. If you are fine, I will come back and continue to make money. This is the normal state.

This new lord obviously doesn't think so. He has just taken office. He has only made money in the territory for a few days, and he has not fully enjoyed his rights. If his territory is destroyed by the dragon, then he will be humiliated among the nobles.

Already.

Guards, knights, and magicians gathered in front of the city gate, constantly persuading adventurers, merchants, and ordinary people who were preparing to leave the city to return to the city.

Among the crowd happened to be Oakley, who had sold his prey and was about to run away.

His speed is already fast enough, but he really underestimated the shamelessness of the new lord. He is obviously shameless, what can you do?

Depressed, he knew that there was no possibility of discussion on the matter, so he could only turn back angrily with the crowd.

Lu Yu originally wanted to use the trick he had used in Yas to bluff people, continue to play the role of the Marquis of Seris, and let the guards in front of him let him go.

But thinking that I was new here, I just had to restrain myself.

And he was not in a hurry. After all, Lu Yu knew very well that the dragon attacking the village was completely false.

Even if Huo Gu was really hungry, he wouldn't worry about the pitiful amount of meat on a person's body.

The lord made up this incident just to make everyone feel a sense of crisis and be forced to stand with him and fight against the dragon.

But the problem is... you are making such a big fuss just to compete with the air.

This time Huo Gu was probably racing on the sea, and all he could think about was his warm little nest in the valley.

There is no explanation for this, so the lord can only be worried for a while. When he realizes that the dragon really has no idea about his territory, everything will return to normal.

After finding a tavern to stay in, Lu Yu planned to get two rooms, where he would live with Lulutis, while the mist demon would live with Sigrid.

The tavern owner asked the mist demon's race with great interest. After hearing the mist demon introduce himself, he smiled and wrote it down on a board.

"You just came to the border town, right? This is your tuition. You can find someone to sell this kind of information for money."

From these words, Lu Yu could know that there were no similar people of the Mist Demon nearby, and the people here didn't even know about the Mist Demon.

The boss glanced at Lulutis and continued to ask: "I can pay for your information."

"You can't sell this for money, because she is my summon."

The boss said oh and touched his chin: "What a strange summoned object. Is there anything special about it?"

"Then please bring the money to buy it."

The boss praised Lu Yu for quickly adapting to the rhythm of the border town of Kais.

After Sigrid and the others went upstairs, Lu Yu, who was alone, bought a drink from the boss, but he didn't drink it.

The wine he drank in Asta tasted bitter, astringent and sour, so now that he saw the drinkers drinking heavily, he admired their taste.

Some information can only be obtained by paying a fee, and drinks are the voucher.

The boss smiled and asked: "What do you want to know?"

"I want to find an information dealer who has rich information channels and is relatively reputable to inquire about the matter."

"It depends on how sincere you are. Even if they know some information, they won't sell it at will."

Lu Yu thought about it for a while, and when he was about to ask more questions, a pair of big hands put on his shoulders.

"If you don't want to drink, then let's drink."

As he said that, the other party pushed Lu Yu hard from the chair and fell to the ground.

Suddenly, Lu Yu was completely unprepared. He didn't see this uninvited guy clearly until he fell to the ground.

After the dark-skinned man pushed Lu Yu down and occupied his seat, he also picked up the wine Lu Yu ordered and drank it all in one gulp, burping in front of Lu Yu.

The big man showed off his strong muscles, then pulled open his collar, letting Lu Yu see the numerous stab wounds there, and finally threw out a Mithril adventurer logo.

The other party's intention is very obvious, I am like this, what can you do to me, are you capable of dealing with me?

The other people in the tavern drank at the sudden farce, laughing playfully, not trying to stop or encourage it, but just watching silently.

Regular patrons of several nearby taverns had seen Jonah bullying the weak. Because of his frequent appearance and his dark appearance, he was simply called Black Jonah.

Black Jonah is a well-known gangster in this area. He is not a sideways person among Mithril adventurers. His eyes are not blind, and he is always easy to deal with the people he provokes.

This time he chose to take advantage of Lu Yu, who looked relatively thin.

Lu Yu was still slightly fat when he traveled through the world. He could barely survive starvation by following the white wolf in the forest, but his weight also dropped drastically.

Although Lu Yu's physical condition improved after Lulutis appeared and he was not as thin as before, he did look like a little chicken compared to these fierce men who fought with monsters all day long.

The more densely populated the place is with adventurers, the more frequent bullying of the weak will occur.

The adventurers in Black Shield City have a common enemy after all. In Case City, everyone comes here to make money. Since you can get money by killing monsters and extorting money, why should I go all out?

"Don't the guards care?" Lu Yu asked.
