Chapter 41 The City of Mines

Riding a griffon, Jenna traveled through the sky and crossed wild mountains.

The airflow at high altitude quickly took away the heat from the surface of the body. She wrapped herself tightly in the thick leather jacket, and occasionally some snowflakes fell from the dressing room. The hands holding the reins were already red from the cold, and even wearing gloves still could not stop it.

In the biting cold wind, only the magic power flowing from the extraordinary core emitted a slight amount of heat to prevent the fingers and body from being completely frozen.

It's a pity that the heat emitted by this kind of magic power is still a drop in the bucket. Today's Jena is only War Sequence 2 Wild Wind Swordsman (Excellent Black Iron Level). She was extremely weak after just changing the sequence, and she was not in the same state as she was at the end of last year.

Sequence of War 2 Wild Wind Swordsman, this job is not powerful and does not have many additional abilities. Of course, the difficulty of promotion is also low. It is usually the choice of mercenaries or extraordinary people in remote areas. The reason why Jina chose this is because

It was also because I was influenced by what I learned at home when I was a child.

She originally wanted to make the transition and study in school for a period of time before choosing an extraordinary job agency that she was suitable for and good at. Unfortunately, she encountered an unexpected situation and had to interrupt her plan.

After flying for a day and a night, covering thousands of kilometers, with the help of this griffon, she passed through the obstacles of the Sigh Mountains and finally saw the scenery of her hometown, a country surrounded by mountains and lakes.

The flapping wings lifted up the fallen leaves in the woods, and the griffin slowly landed.

Jenna turned down from above, took out the food prepared in advance, fed the big guy, and then touched its neck.

"Thanks a lot."

This grey-maned and white-feathered gryphon looked at the girl in front of him, pecked at the food that was handed to him, and after eating, chirped, then fluttered its wings and disappeared into the sky, and it would return to Emenas on its own.

Rubbing her stiff face, Jenna endured the physical fatigue and walked towards the mountain path towards her hometown.

----

"What?"

After returning to her home, she only saw a locked empty fortress. Her father and several brothers were not there, which made her scream in surprise.

"Oh, it's Miss Jena. Didn't you go to school?" asked a halberd-wielding guard stationed nearby.

"I heard there was unrest in Black Rock, so I rushed back."

"I see, but the leader has taken many brothers to Fengyan City in the west, and our coalition forces from the Halberd Sect are attacking that place."

"But didn't father say he wouldn't join a certain faction?" Jenna was a little confused. She had only been away for less than two months, so why did everything change?

"The situation does not allow it. Frost Rose intervenes, and the strength of the Halberd Sect is getting stronger and stronger. If we don't join, we will become its enemies, so we can only join the team. After joining the team, we were immediately transferred by the commander of the sect.

Went over there to join the siege army."

"Is there any danger?" Jenna asked.

"I don't know." The guard shook his head.

Jenna had no choice but to ask some people around her.

Their family has lived in this small mountain town for generations, and they are considered a small local wealthy family. They have their own small castle. Although it is not big, it is not bad. It is well-known in the local area, so it is embraced by some captains who also go out to work as mercenaries.

Become a leader.

Unfortunately, this place is located in a remote place, and the information is not very well-informed. No one knows what the current battle situation is on the front line, and Jena has no choice but to simply rest for a day and head to the west of the principality again the next day.

----------

Clancy, County Need.

Lorraine Hill's convoy continued to drive, and they arrived at the city where the mine accident was located. There are now many people gathered here. Some are extraordinary people recruited from the local area by Clancia, and some are adventurers attracted by the bounty.

In fact, those giant worms are not very powerful in combat, but they are mainly underground, making it difficult to find and kill them. Ordinary people cannot defeat them. After the extraordinary ones arrive, they run away again, which is a headache.

After the motorcade stopped, the people accompanying the team skillfully went to various places to record and inspect the local conditions, and recorded them into forms. Lorraine Hill also put on a slightly plain coat and walked into the street to watch.

Next four weeks.

"This incident of Warcraft causing trouble has been going on for almost two months. If this continues, our output this year will drop significantly, and we will lose a lot of money." Several miner leaders were talking aside.

"Yes, we finally put up the structure this year. There have been a lot less mine accidents. I didn't expect so many strange monsters to appear. No one has seen them before."

"The rewards offered by local officials are getting higher and higher, but no one can solve it."

"I heard that the 'Red Claw' from the east is very powerful. How about inviting him here?"

"It is said that the Crancia official also sent someone to inquire, but the person said that he wanted to protect the local village and could not leave at will, and he did not seem to be interested in money."

"It's really rare. Is he very powerful?"

"It's very powerful. It's said to be a Sequence 5, but sometimes it can compete with some Sequence 6 monsters, so the mountainous area to the east is much more stable now."

"It's a pity that people like this stay in that remote place."

"But if you want it, others can't force it."

....

As the people dispersed, Lorraine Hill moved forward again. This was the second time she had heard of that special transcendent. Was his nickname 'Red Claw'? It felt a bit like a job introduction for the devil sequence.

.

Then she shook her head again and went to the side of the street, looking at the scattered shops.

Compared with inland cities, there are a lot of ore debris scattered on the streets here, apparently from the hauling carriages. The architectural style of the entire city also reveals a dark gray color with few bright colors.

Many residents in the city are miners, and there are relatively few other occupations. In order to withstand the dirt when mining, the clothes they wear are mostly black, gray, navy blue, etc., and there are few bright colors.

Most of the shops sold in the shops here are practical tools, wear-resistant clothing, etc. There are basically no luxury goods.

People's lives are also quite simple. Mining, eating and drinking, resting, and mining are basically the same cycle. In the past, they were like this in the West Wind. Now that Crancia rules the country, although they have more time than before, there is no need to

It’s so hard, but mining, a job that depends on survival, still cannot be abandoned.

Although it is a bit tiring and dangerous, in this remote city, what other options are there?

After some inspections, Lorraine Hill returned to her place of residence. She decided to fly to the east alone tomorrow to check out the area. As for the caravan, they would be temporarily stationed in the city without having to cross the mountains and walk through the narrow paths.

The mountain road there is steep and not suitable for horse-drawn carriages.

I hope to find the person nicknamed "Red Claw". If my guess is correct, he should be the boy in the girl's memory.
