The next day, after having breakfast, Boom and Rikka immediately put away the Wonder House, got up and walked towards the morning light. They no longer paid attention to the nomadic tribe, because both Boom and Rikka could easily kill the other party in an instant. Along the way, mercenary groups several times the size of Ogu City passed by. Most of them wore leather armor or chain armor like Rikka, but their weapons were mostly rapiers.
This has been a habit of the Xisai people for thousands of years. The world can call it an insult to war, or it can be regarded as an extension of artistic flavor.
And compared to the indifference and isolation of the royal city, at least the two of them felt very friendly here. Either a young mercenary threw a rose to Rikka, or Boom had a small piece of black bread in his hand.
The two looked at each other and smiled bitterly. If these people knew about the inventory in the Rikka Dimension, they would definitely not be so generous. They would even draw their swords, showing greed.
Boom did not eat the small piece of black bread, nor did he allow Rikka to smell the roses. The devil knows the reason why the other party behaved like this, and pure goodwill should never be trusted.
"Brother Stinky, can you turn the fireball into a flower?" Although Rikka's face was full of displeasure, her hands were always attached to the two meteorite swords.
"I can't do it now. It requires at least the strength of a high-level magician or above. Do you like fireballs?" Boom shook his head and replied helplessly.
"I don't like it! It looks ugly, and it's so dangerous. People can get hurt." Rikka said and looked around again.
The afternoon sun warmed the entire Golden Halberd Plain, and the half-meter-high nightshade grass swayed in the wind, as if welcoming the arrival of Boom and Rikka.
At this time, the two of them were standing outside Newk City, looking at this behemoth while feeling the constant noise it made.
Although war is cruel, it has nothing to do with ordinary people most of the time. The contradiction between the Principality of Xisai and the Royal City is well known to everyone, but it is like clouds and birds in the sky. They have no other choice but to accept each other.
However, as a border town bordering the Royal City, the thickness of its city wall is extremely exaggerated. Moreover, the city wall of the Principality of Cisse is world-famous and has the reputation of "the wall that does not fall down".
The city wall of Newk City is about fifteen meters high, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, with a base of ten meters and a top level of five meters. The whole is connected by four turrets, and there are three battlements between each turret. These twelve battlements are wider and taller than the city wall. Their bottoms are all square, while the parts above the city wall are round.
Installed within it are the defenses that gave King Fernando of Augusta such a headache. Therefore, he purchased magic cannons from the Goblins only after paying countless painful prices.
No one knows where these things called "wild donkey crossbows" come from, at least most ordinary people have no idea about it.
The ammunition used in these things is a special heavy arrow. The diameter is as thick as an adult's thigh, and the arrow feathers are not animal tail hairs, but iron sheets as thick as a little finger.
And its arrows, after being improved by several generations of Grand Dukes of Cisse, are extremely destructive. Those barbs can easily shatter the knight's tower shield, and even ignore the defensive shields of high-level magicians and below.
In addition, it is less affected by wind speed in the air and its energy decays slowly. Therefore, after the arrow is charged with the powerful torsion of the crossbow machine, its range and accuracy are often guaranteed.
On the other hand, no matter which city in the Principality of Xisai, there is no so-called principal army camp. Their residence is within the wide city wall, which is not only ready for defense at any time, but also the safest place.
Boom stood outside Newk City, as if he was being watched by countless eyes at this moment. As for the huge arrows protruding from the battlements, they were like the God of Death picking out the undead.
The entry into the city went surprisingly smoothly, and the two of them didn't even use the prepared words. Boom stuffed the gold coins in his hands into the storage bag. At this time, he was no longer an orphan in the royal city, but transformed into a
Beginner Magician.
"Brother, where should we go next? Is there a black market or slum area here?" Rikka asked in a low voice while looking around.
"Let's take a stroll first. When we first arrive here, we have to be careful." Boom stood on the street, constantly scanning the crowd, or all unknown dangers.
Immediately, the two of them walked forward with the flow of people. Although Boom's eyes were focused, his ears were stretched out, trying to listen to the conversations around him.
As for Rikka, her mouth has already been filled with countless snacks. There are also bamboo baskets on her arms, which contain small paper bags.
"Are you sure you are not the reincarnation of a pig?" Boom took a bunch of roasted venison and asked dumbfounded.
"Brother is a pig. They say that when you are in the country, do as the Romans do and blend in! Do you understand blending in?" Rikka touched her greasy hands to Boom and immediately replied.
"I don't understand, but it's getting late now. Let's decide where to stay tonight." Boom picked up Rikka and turned around and walked not far away.
This hotel is the largest and most expensive in Newk City. Boom and Rikka chose to stay here for safety reasons.
And food is provided all day long. Although the taste may not be very good, it can minimize the number of times you go out.
Rikka looked at Boom speechlessly. She came here to play, so how could she be willing to stay in the hotel all day long, even though she could get along with her brother day and night.
Boom, as if he didn't see it, pulled Rikka into the hotel. The two were immediately led to the front desk by the attendant, and after paying two gold coins, they received a key.
But just as Boom and Rikka were about to walk up to the second floor, a sudden burst of curses rang in their ears. The black wood staff and the meteorite sword were instantly pulled out, but they stopped in the air again.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then put away their weapons. They saw two muscular men standing outside the hotel door, exhaling fragrance at each other.
"Why don't you donate your eyes if they are useless? I can't even see it for a big man like me. Are the holes in my face a result of anger?" The strong man on the left shook his chest muscles and reprimanded loudly.
"Did you eat shit? You have such a stinky mouth! If your legs and feet are not good, just lie down at home and don't come out to block the way." The strong man on the right heard this and replied unceremoniously.
Immediately, the two struggled with each other. Boom and Rikka watched indifferently, while the people around them started shouting. Even the city guards who were attracted by the noise joined in.
"Are private fights allowed here?" Boom turned to look at the attendant and asked in a low voice.
"Haha, this is the first time you two have come to the Principality of Xisai. Our place is so open. As long as you don't use fighting spirit or magic power, no one will care about such small things."
The attendant smiled and replied that he didn't know how many foreigners like Boom and Rikka he would receive every year. Therefore, he had no intention of questioning them.
Boom immediately ordered some more food, and after he ordered the person to deliver it to the room, he pulled Rikka up to the second floor. In the sunset, Boom looked into the distance through the glass window, and Rikka also took out his favorite
Eat white sugar cake.
The two have officially settled in Newk City. Although they don't have their own residence yet, they have been able to escape from the black jail incident completely.
