"A plan that kills two birds with one stone? It's interesting. Let's talk about it." Carlos stared at Zarok who had turned into a human form, trying to get some omens of the future from him.
"I spent a lot of effort to bring the dwarf here from the south of the world. He is on his way to Nangao, and he carries a rare treasure.
"
"Aha! I see it! I see those damn walls burning!"
As the Twister of Fate elaborated, the mists of the future were revealed. Kalos's roar of excitement spread throughout the Tzeentch realm, and hordes of his Tzeentch daemons began to gather.
“Wangxiangguan~It’s a long way to go~I’ll buy wine in a deserted village to soothe my sorrow~”
Of course, Snorri didn't know everything that happened in the Demon Realm of Tzeentch. He led the team on the official road leading to Nangao. Considering that it was already winter, the farther north they went, the more desolate they felt.
The economic center of the Weibei provinces will obviously not be planned at the foot of Changyuan. The capital, Nangao, is mainly a military and industrial town, so naturally it will not be as prosperous as Fuzhou.
The security level of the towns and villages along the way is also very high, and there are no optional entertainment projects. Changyuan can block the large army of northern invaders, but there will always be small groups of fish that slip through the net and infiltrate. And the closer they get to the Chaos Wasteland
, people in Cathay are also more susceptible to erosion.
“What a majestic city!”
As the sun set in the west, Snorri admired as he looked far into the horizon. Nangao, as the western end of Changyuan, is located at the foot of the Sorrow Mountains. Based on the terrain, nine lines of defense called the "Nangao Nine Walls" were built.
With their help, Nangao has never fallen since its completion.
"Brothers! Hurry up, this is the administrative center of Weibei Province, and good wine and food are indispensable!"
"Report! Isn't it the Dwarf King Snorri who's here?"
"good!"
"I am the guard general of Neiqiangdi, and I am here to greet you on Zongji's order!"
"Aha? This place is still several miles away from Nangao City. Is His Highness Biaolong so polite?"
The dwarf king sat on the back of the sheep and raised his eyebrows. It was a good thing to be greeted by someone, but the person who came was obviously not of a high level, and I didn't know what it meant.
"It's Niangen right now. We are doing business with people outside the customs. But for safety's sake, don't go out of town. You need to check when entering and exiting the city. I was sent here to inform you."
The general's speech had a strong northwest accent. Fortunately, this was not a difficulty for Snorri.
"Mutual trading? It seems that the world outside Changyuan is not entirely chaotic. This method is indeed effective in alleviating conflicts."
The time traveler muttered to himself, mutual trade is trade with other countries and races. Compared with free trade, its characteristics are fixed time and official supervision.
"Who are the people who come here to participate in the mutual market? Barbarians?"
"Barbarians are like a general term. They have to be divided into several groups. Besides humans, the hobgoblins on the grassland will also do business with us."
"Hobgoblins, what can they sell? Wargs?"
As a king who is willing to trade, Snorri also knows a thing or two about these guys. They are a variant of those small things in the old world that cannot kill or burn all the small things. They are bigger and stronger, but they are slightly less cunning. Perhaps
This is Brother Mao's attempt to find a balance between goblins and orcs.
They and the ogres of the Mountains of Mourn are both powerful threats to the Tusk Road. Before the sea route was opened, those who wanted to reach Cathay had to go through the Mountains of Mourn or through the grasslands controlled by the Great Goblin Khanate. Compared to
Even if there is a vast grassland, there is still a place to hide in the mountains. If you take a roundabout way, the probability of successfully passing through is higher.
"All kinds of livestock, and some unique resources on the grassland. Those khans need better guys and things that provide fun!"
The general rode his war horse and rode alongside Snorri. While they were talking, the gate of Nangao City was already in sight.
"Country party members, give way! Zong Jidi ordered to join the queue for our dwarf friends!"
In front of the city gate, many merchants and their carriages and horses gathered in line, waiting to enter the city. The general held up the scroll in his hand and cleared a path.
"Walk in front of this magic mirror, it's a routine matter, don't be surprised!"
"Zhao Mo Jian? What is this?"
Looking at a two-person tall mirror placed at the entrance to the city gate, Snorri frowned in confusion.
"The method of making this thing was proposed by an alchemist a few years ago. It can illuminate the demonic energy attached to people or objects!"
"Devil Qi is what Chaos Corrosion is called in Cathay. It is said to be a photo, but in fact it is just mixed with some materials that are sensitive to it."
Snorri thought for a while and figured out that there were many in the old world that had the same effect. The God of Order could produce some, and his own Doomsday Anvil also had the same effect.
"Brother, is this thing's judgment reliable?"
Since the system can display the various levels of corrosion in a location, Snorri has become accustomed to clicking on a new place to determine how vigilant he needs to be for the next action.
But when I opened Nangao City, I saw that the Chaos Corrosion Index was quite high, with Tzeentch Corruption being the main one. If the Zhaomojian placed in the city gate was really working, then it shouldn't be.
"It must be accurate! Since we had this thing, our city defense army has caught a lot of demons trying to sneak into the city, and also confiscated a lot of evil objects." General Pian said with a little pride, in his opinion this
It may be that Snorri has never seen the world.
The dwarf team walked slowly past the magic mirror. Snorri was not in a hurry to enter the city, but walked around the mirror to examine it carefully, trying to see some clues.
"who!"
He suddenly felt a sharp gaze behind him, but he turned around but could not find the source in the crowd.
"What's wrong with you?" Gotrek, as a personal bodyguard, felt something strange about the lord.
"Tsk, let me tell you, brothers, don't relax too much and be careful." Seeing that the team had all passed, Snorri shook his head and said nothing.
"That dwarf, is he Stormhammer Snorri?"
As we walked onto the main road of Nangao City, before we had time to look at the situation on both sides, a group of strangely dressed humans came from the opposite side, and the leader shouted loudly towards us.
"That's right! Who is here, and what do you want to teach me?"
"If you don't change your name when you're working, if you don't change your surname when you sit down, it's the same as Guarjia Hai Lanzhu!"
Taking a closer look, he saw a female general coming. She was quite tall, and her tight belt accentuated her broad shoulders. She wore a strange hairpin, revealing half of her face with wild tattoos; she had a scimitar on her waist and a long bow on her back.
Lieutenant, came straight to Snorri.
"Oh? It's actually this person!"
Snorri knew it by name. This female general was the banner leader of the Manchurian tribe, nicknamed Saibei Sirius, and was ranked fourth as a wild card on the Heavenly Ranking. She was extremely powerful.
