Langsburg, or Langs Fortress, is the city closest to the exit of the underground passage we chose.
The Fortress of Lens, located on the Chil Highlands, is obviously located in the interior of the United Kingdom of Ming Dynasty, but it is one of the few fortified cities in the country.
The thick mixed brick wall is both beautiful and solid under the design of the master architect. The imaginary enemy of the city wall, which is ten meters high and three meters thick, is the giant race at the beginning. The long moat is full of hungry piranhas.
The reason? They have a good neighbor. The entrance to the underground world is open, and anyone can enter and exit.
The plundering attacks of underground orcs named Season, and the traditional trials of dark elf raiders hunting surface elves in the middle of the night. Black dragons and red dragons accidentally fly out from the underground passages to enjoy the autumn breeze for a change, and wizards and necromancers who sneak out to find experimental subjects are looking for
Sacrificial demons and evil god worshipers. Well, even I think the exile and hostility of the inhabitants of the underworld are not entirely unreasonable.
At least in the underground passage alone, we encountered three dark elf raids and two orc patrols. The latter saluted and left directly when they saw Cassio, while the former were stunned for a moment when they saw the gray elves, and then changed without hesitation.
Having achieved the target of the trial hunting, they pounced towards us.
Well, I had just finished forming the team, and I planned to do some training and run-in, to see the strength of the newcomers, but when Casio's bone bow was raised and the Golden Arrow was called for a round, someone shouted "Golden Bow"
In the name of this, the dark elves immediately retreated.
Of course, Casio's heroic appearance while bending a bow and shooting arrows is indeed impressive, and it is completely different from the confused Anria. But when I found a certain beast king hunter drooling at Casio with green eyes, I felt silently for this centaur.
The hero became worried.
"Golden primary level? If you are less than thirty, that is to say, you are just considered an adult among centaurs. It is indeed good, but it is still a little worse than the beast king and half-dragon at the golden peak, especially that guy is definitely for the purpose
The unscrupulous type. The more outstanding you are, the more dangerous you are."
I wanted to remind the centaur, but Beifeng chatted and laughed with it along the way, which made me not know how to start.
If you only look at the appearance of Bei Feng, he is tall and burly, with a simple face, which gives people a good impression. However, his deep and strong voice is always slow and gentle, and his conversation is both funny and knowledgeable, and he is quite mature.
The flavor of elders and philosophers.
Well, precisely because he looks good and is eloquent, there are so many victims and the harm to society is so great.
And this loyal big brother image, appropriate and implicit kindness, sincere smile, especially his appetite for Casio, who seems indifferent but is actually full of worries about the future, and most importantly, the way the young centaur speaks is followed by the tragic wind, and soon...
, after the initial trial, and with the hard work of Bei Feng, the two started talking and laughing.
Diana couldn't stand it anymore, so she kindly went over to remind him, but she was so clumsy that she didn't say a few words, and instead was driven away by the sad atmosphere.
"Smart creatures are so shallow. They are used to judging life based on its race and appearance. Yes, I am a half-dragon with black dragon blood, but anyone who is familiar with me knows that I love life and small animals extremely.
Yes, I am ugly, but anyone who knows me well knows that I am also very gentle."
Well, his injured eyes seemed to have been greatly wronged, as if Diana was a racist bad person, and in the end, under Casio's rather angry glare, the kind-hearted Diana still couldn't say those disgusting filthy deeds.
, could only shake his head and retreat.
"Sister, you are so troublesome. That centaur boy will know about it in two days."
"But by then, it's already too late!"
"Pfft!" Sure enough, the more innocent a person is, the richer his association ability is. Hearing this "too late", the others immediately laughed, and then looked at the famous golden bow with playful eyes, especially his lower half.
God's vest.
"Young man, I don't know how sad the wind is. I will sing the song "The Flowers in the Back Garden" the next day.
Well, I don’t know who made a crooked poem. The funny tone and lyrics made everyone laugh. Well, in the face of Diana’s questioning look of “How could you do this?”, at least I wouldn’t admit it.
My moment of inspiration.
The rather arrogant Casio paid no attention to anyone after joining the team. He even pretended not to hear the polite greetings from Kross. Along the way, he even called others by race, "Hey, that goblin" and "Hey, that fat human."
, has easily offended many people.
So, seeing the sad wind aiming at him, no one except the kind-hearted Diana had any intention of telling him off, and were happy to see his jokes.
Next, except for another joint sniper attack by dark elves near the exit, the journey went smoothly.
But then after walking into the underground world, bathing in the familiar yet unfamiliar warm sunshine, looking at the vast blue sky, and the vast land with no end in sight, even I was quite excited.
The Roland Holy Sword at its waist also resonated slightly, seeming to express its impatient mood, and the direction it hoped to go was naturally the north of the continent.
"Donglan Principality? A descendant of Lan? I want to try his quality. If he cannot meet my requirements, it will be an insult to this glorious name."
He shook his head and put aside his unnecessary thoughts for the time being. Looking back, he found that the conditions of his caravan companions were not very good.
Momo, who used to be extremely energetic, slumped on the ground with his eyes closed, while Diana, with a pale face, lowered her body and half-kneeled, muttering words as if praying.
"It won't fall up, it won't fall up."
When I got closer, I realized that she was actually talking to herself. Immediately, I burst out laughing.
This is not a rare problem. Even on the surface, if miners have been underground for a long time, if they come out and look up at the sky, they will suddenly see the boundless sky from the narrow hole, and they will feel as if they will be snatched away by the sky at any time.
The illusion of falling sky.
This is an almost instinctive illusion of living things. Experienced miners will get better after a while, but for the dark elves who have stayed in the underground world all their lives, it is not that easy to deal with.
They were born in the underground world and have become accustomed to being above the clouds and still having dark rock walls. They are even more accustomed to the first light of dawn being brought by the glowing moss on the rock walls.
When the seemingly natural top of the rock wall suddenly disappears, it is like the human beings living on the surface suddenly lose the sun and the blue sky. Even if the rationale knows that everything is fine, extreme physical and mental discomfort is inevitable.
As far as I know, this instinctive reaction, nicknamed "open area phobia", takes at least several months to overcome, and there are many people who never overcome it in their lives.
The gray elf, who was already a little afraid of light, was in the worst condition, so he asked them to rest on the carriage. But Casio, even though his hooves were trembling slightly, still pretended to be calm and tried to stand upright.
As for Silver Hook, Hoyle and those old guys have been to the surface world countless times. The same goes for those guys from the legal department. They are already laughing and joking about what to do.
As for Green, who must have been on the ground for the first time, he couldn't see his expression with such thick armor and bird-wing helmet, but judging from the fact that he kept groping for the grenade on his waist, he wasn't doing well either, and he was now heading toward the explosion.
Things need a sense of security.
Why, there is one person missing? Well, I have deliberately ignored it, and you still want to mention him, which is asking for death.
"Are you okay? Why don't you go to the carriage and rest for a while."
"No, no need. I'm fine."
Looking at the others who looked indifferent, how could the stubborn young man admit defeat in front of everyone, even if it was Big Brother Beifeng's sincere greetings out of concern.
"Well, buddy, lend me a hand, I'm a little dizzy."
The black half-dragon suddenly sat on the ground and leaned on Cassio's horse. Cassio was stunned for a moment, then understood, and a smile appeared on his cold and arrogant face.
"Okay, if that's the case, let me just lean on you."
So, the proud centaur prince also bent his hooves, sat down like a war horse, and let the sad wind rest on one side of his abdomen.
Gradually, sitting on the ground, having support, feeling the body temperature of his companions, and feeling the solid ground, the young centaur prince's beating heart slowed down, and his "phobia of open areas" was greatly improved.
Then, Prince Centaur, who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, finally melted the iceberg and smiled gratefully.
"Thank you. Brother Beifeng."
"Thank me for whatever I did, I should be the one thanking you."
"Haha. Brother, you are so kind."
"You haven't seen the wonderful things about me yet. You will have the opportunity in the future."
While chatting, the centaur and the half-dragon leaned together, their hands "accidentally" touched and then quickly separated. The scene was so erotic that it was impossible to look directly at it.
The terrifying scene in front of me made me rub my head and secretly made up my mind to find an uninhabited corner as soon as possible to bury the sad wind alive, so as not to continue to pollute my eyes.
Judging from the people nearby who were gnashing their teeth or making vomiting gestures, there were quite a few people who held this idea. If it weren't for the fact that this young ace shooter wasn't really weak, he might have already put it into action.
Langsburg was not far from the exit of the underground city, and we arrived just before sunset. But when we arrived, as soon as we approached the city gate, we encountered new troubles.
"That one over there, take off your helmet for inspection. Whose slave is that half-dragon? Can he bite? Does he have an epidemic prevention certificate?"
Immediately, when he heard that Big Brother was regarded as an animal, the impulsive Casio was touching his bow, planning to kill the guard directly according to his usual habit, but I quickly stopped him. I didn't want to just come to the human kingdom.
Become a wanted criminal.
In fact, what the guard said makes sense. If it weren't for the presence of the Holy Knight in our group, I'm afraid he would have shouted for people to besiege us from the moment he saw the half-dragon.
The created race of half-dragons is somewhat special. They are two different things from the dragonborn born from mixed blood.
Although they have their own ethnic group and culture, they are indeed unnatural products. In the chaotic ancient times, the colorful evil dragon god Tiamat and the evil wizard created them and used them to serve the evil (leaning towards chaos).
There are colorful dragons (red dragon, black dragon, blue dragon, etc.), and Sad Wind himself is a half-dragon with black dragon blood.
In contrast, the relatively kind-hearted metal dragons (gold dragons, silver dragons, etc. who are inclined to order) have no good impressions of these half-dragons at all. Due to the natural suppression of their blood, most half-dragons are still obsessed with dragons to this day.
Servants, such as the Dragon City that Xiao Hong is building as the new Dragon Queen, has countless half-dragon servants.
This is also the reason why Bei Feng was able to gain Casio's approval with those words before, because in many places, even if they have outstanding talents and good individual combat capabilities, half-dragons have indeed been discriminated against because of their destined life as servants.
Of course, in the chaotic underground world, black dragons and red dragons are easy to die in battle, so their servants and their descendants can easily be killed. This is probably where the most half-dragons are killed.
Therefore, in the eyes of humans, the black half-dragon is equal to the minions of the giant dragon, and now that there is a paladin in this team, it is a logical inference that this half-dragon is just a slave or trophy of a certain mage.
"I am the slave of this centaur."
"Thank you, little brother. It's okay. I've seen this kind of vulgar people a lot. Don't be like him.
Beifeng grabbed the impulsive Casio and whispered in his ear. It seemed that he didn't want to embarrass the other person. Beifeng also took the initiative to admit that he was the other person's slave. Immediately, Casio was inexplicably moved.
Immediately, when the eyes of the two men faced each other, lightning flashed, all friendship was in the eye contact, no unnecessary words were needed, and in the eyes of bystanders, this scene once again became unbearable to witness.
"Ugh! Momo is going to vomit, Momo is really going to vomit!"
At this moment, I was seriously thinking about whether it was feasible to leave them alone and let them fend for themselves and find an archer myself.
Well, after solving the problem here, another problem occurred over there. Green insisted not to take off his helmet, so the guards naturally refused to let him go. However, their dispute attracted more guards. When these city guards used
As the ballistas on the city wall slowly adjusted their targets with wary eyes on us, I knew this was not going to work.
"Detection**!"
As a result of this one-ring magic, when the holy light falls, the villain, or the holder of the power of chaos, will be dyed red.
In an instant, the black half-dragon glowed red, while the bodies of the others glowed faintly white.
"This officer, look at the brilliance on his body. He is also a kind-hearted citizen of order. It's just that my brother is highly burned and looks ugly under the armor. I'm afraid of scaring others, so I haven't dared to uncover it."
I apparently held the guard's hand to explain, but with a flick of my wrist, a small money bag slipped into the guard's sleeve.
"Can you do me a favor? It's for Beyana (the goddess of wealth)'s sake."
This was not the first time that the young guard with a pockmarked face had accepted a bribe. He looked around and found that no one was paying attention, so he shook his sleeves again. The sound of metal collision was heard inside, which showed that the weight was not light.
He immediately nodded with satisfaction.
"Go in. Don't cause trouble."
But when our motorcade entered, Heloise's voice rang in our ears.
"That bag is not light. How much did it cost? This is not your habit."
"Guess."
"I guess it's all copper coins, so it's only 30 copper coins at most, but for the guards, it's not too little."
"5 gold coins."
"How is it possible! You, a stingy guy, will actually suffer a loss!!"
"Haha, I made a lot of money before this trip, this little money is nothing."
"No, it's not about money, it's about your character that you will never suffer a loss! Is it 5 gold coins? Is it a flower elf magic gold coin that will dissipate overnight?"
"That thing is worth a hundred times more than ordinary gold coins. In order to prevent the other party from taking advantage, wouldn't it be a huge loss if I paid so much?"
"No, based on what I know about you, as long as you are happy and make others unhappy, you are willing to pay no matter how much you have to do. Hey, don't be pretentious, teacher, I'm so curious."
"Then just be curious."
While I lamented that this stupid sight really understood me deeply, I had no intention of revealing the answer.
According to my understanding of her, this familiar called the Omniscient has an endless thirst for knowledge and secrets. Once curiosity arises, it will definitely get to the bottom of it. Otherwise, it will be unable to sleep all night. So,
I can take the opportunity to achieve my goals.
"Hey, hey, don't be like this, I'll be thinking about it all night again tonight. Otherwise, I promise to teach you ice magic, and teach you ice magic that even a magic idiot can use. You should say it now, right?"
Well, sure enough, I gave in instantly and my destination was reached.
I am still too weak now, even if it is just a little bit stronger, it would be good. In this state, I can actually use necromancy magic and ice magic. I am also a master of necromancy magic, but if I am labeled as a necromancer because of this, it will
If he becomes a wanted criminal directly, his status is over.
Therefore, although they belong to the chaos side, elemental magic, which human mages on the order side must also practice, became the only choice.
However, my knowledge of ice magic is still at the stage of gathering magic power to blast away. But there is a master of all magic beside me, so naturally I asked her for advice.
"Bah, let me teach you this unscrupulous woman, and get killed again? I'm dreaming!"
Well, if I use the magic pet contract to suppress her, she will indeed teach, but if I make a mistake on purpose, it will be enough for me to finish the game at the critical moment.
But I'm not in a hurry at all. She understands me and I understand her. In fact, as long as we find the right method, this Banshee King is easy to deal with. We just need to wait patiently for an opportunity, an opportunity to arouse the other party's curiosity.
As expected, within a week of the rant, she took the bait.
I smiled when I looked at the kitten who couldn't even break through the skin of Titan's torso when I scratched my neck hard.
"Okay, the answer is revealed. It's indeed 5 gold coins. Didn't my two 10-gold black iron long swords break up with Momo's sparring session? So, I put the fragments in a bag, which is considered waste.
Take advantage of it. However, it was indeed worth 5 gold coins once and is now worth 5 gold coins."
The workmanship of that long sword is poor, and the labor cost is completely negligible. The material cost is basically the same as the price of the sword, but I won't be bored to rebuild a black iron sword.
"Impossible, when did you prepare it?"
"I'm ready on the road. Over the years, as long as the performance is in place, this trick has never failed."
Yes, I had known for a long time that there would be problems when we entered the city. The bag of fragments had been prepared on the way, and I had even rehearsed the lines of bribery and the action of giving money.
"Asshole! How dare you catch me! Boy, just wait for me."
The sudden shouting from behind made me shake my head.
"Hey, even this line has not changed. It really lacks new ideas."
"Aren't you afraid that he will lead a team to cause trouble for you?"
"It's okay for a small soldier to take advantage of the situation. It's really strange that he can incite his colleagues to seek personal revenge."
"If he slanders you as a spy, can't he call for help? Isn't that how knight novels are written? This is a classic routine."
I glanced at Heloise sympathetically. After reading too many routine knight novels, she would become mentally retarded. With such intelligence, she is still called an omniscient person.
"Then first we need to explain why he let the spy in. Moreover, if it turns out that we are not the spy, but he just falsely reported military information for revenge, this little soldier will lose his head."
"As expected of my wife, she is really cunning."
"Thanks for the compliment, but please call him experienced."
The master and apprentice looked at each other, feeling a sudden sympathy for each other, but behind the scenes, Momo, who saw this scene, suddenly pulled Diana's sleeve.
"Look at Luo Lan, he looks at the cat with a strange expression. He almost treats it as a human being. Is he also the same kind as Bei Feng? Didn't he touch the eldest sister's head that night?"
Ever since Diana, who was extremely annoyed by Momo, revealed that she was still a girl, Momo had been making various malicious assumptions about Roland.
"Shut up! Don't mention that night!" Thinking of everyone's weird looks after that day, Diana sighed helplessly.
"Recently, my luck has been really bad. I have simply offended the God of Misfortune."
Not long after, this complaint reached my ears, and I immediately laughed happily.
"You didn't offend the god of misfortune, but the aura of the god of plague. Haha, I found another person who is less lucky than me. Hello, unlucky Lightning Rod No. 3, let's get along well." (To be continued.)
