There were too many people in line and the queue moved very slowly. Lu Yuan was secretly anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
This is the territory of the half-dragons, and he does not believe that force can solve the problem.
Just when Lu Yuan was anxious, a quarrel broke out ahead.
Lu Yuan looked over and saw two groups of half-dragon soldiers holding out their halberds, blocking the way forward. Opposite them were two human lords with hundreds of soldiers.
"Why don't you let us in? We've been waiting in line for so long!"
"Brother, we are in a real emergency, please be accommodating."
The two human lords both looked anxious.
But the half-dragon captain had no intention of listening to their explanation, "Human, this is Thorn City. You have too many troops. In order to prevent you from being spies who want to destroy the city, you must pay a deposit.
"
"Your asking price is too high. Five hundred soul crystals per person. I am only a second- and third-level soldier, and the recruitment price is not that high!"
"Yes, your price is too high. Lords and heroes actually want 1,000 soul crystals. How can we afford it?"
The two human lords argued loudly.
"This is your problem, not mine. If you don't have money, then leave. You are not welcome here!" The half-dragon captain pointed his spear coldly and made a dull sound.
The two human lords were still talking, but the half-dragon soldiers had already grabbed their weapons and were approaching them. It seemed that they wanted to expel them directly.
The two human lords are anxious. Looking at this posture, they are not willing to agree.
Just as the two sides were about to take action, a voice came.
"etc!"
Lu Yuan slowly walked out of the crowd and walked forward.
The two human lords suddenly looked happy, but the half-dragon captain frowned.
"Humans, do you want to take action? This is Thorn City, Lord Bartlett's territory. You should understand your situation!" The half-dragon captain's voice was cold.
"I have no intention of taking action, Your Excellency." Lu Yuan's voice was calm and steady.
When the two human lords heard this, they immediately looked disappointed.
The half-dragon captain said directly: "Then human being, go back to where you belong!"
Lu Yuan did not flinch at all, looking directly at the other party, "I mean, I am responsible for their expenses."
Then he turned to the team behind him and said, "In addition, any human lords who want to go to Fengxi Castle can come together, and I will pay all the expenses."
After his words fell, the people in the queue suddenly started talking.
Several human lords who were still in the team had their eyes firmly fixed on him.
"Human, are you telling the truth?" The half-dragon captain stared at him with his yellow vertical pupils.
"Of course it's true." Lu Yuan took out a money bag and swayed it, which was filled with soul crystals.
Lu Yuan opened his pocket, and the bright gems inside immediately dazzled the half-dragon captain's eyes.
"Okay, I can let them in, as long as you pay enough deposit." The half-dragon captain's eyes were burning, but his hand directly grabbed the money bag.
But Lu Yuan took it back in advance, and then met the other party's eager and unkind eyes.
A sincere smile bloomed on Lu Yuan's face, "Wait a minute, in order to avoid you trouble, I think it's better if I pay the share of those human lords together, so you can save yourself trouble, how about that?"
"Of course, you have a great idea!" The half-dragon captain's voice sounded dry due to excitement.
A rough calculation here shows that there are more than 700 soldiers, which is three to four hundred thousand dollars. He has never seen such money in his life!
If you leave even a little bit of this money, it will be enough for him to live for several years!
He was naturally excited, so how could he refuse Lu Yuan's proposal?
"What are you still waiting for? Hurry up and register this gentleman!" the half-dragon captain shouted immediately, and then looked at Lu Yuan, his expression had changed 180 degrees.
Some lords in the team witnessed so many soul crystals and immediately stared at Lu Yuan with greedy eyes. If this was not the Thorn City, the city of the half-dragon Bartlett Black Claw, they would probably take action directly.
"Okay, any of you who want to go to Fengxi Castle, please come out." Lu Yuan shouted.
Immediately, three human lords emerged from the crowd, and they led about two hundred soldiers.
Then, the soldiers of Jueyun Leader also came out, and several heroes guarded Lu Yuan, blocking everyone's prying eyes.
Seeing Lu Yuan's troops and heroes, a large number of people's eyes immediately shrank.
These were high-level troops at first glance, and the aura of heroes was even more powerful. When deliberately stimulated, they were overwhelmed and breathless. They instantly understood the gap between the two sides and did not dare to make any further decisions.
But some lords who consider themselves powerful, or people who are blinded by money, are still ready to take action.
"Brother, thank you so much this time! My name is Deng Huan, and this is Zheng Gu." The lord standing next to him introduced Lu Yuan with gratitude.
Lu Yuan waved his hand, "My name is Lu Yuan, everyone is doing it for the human race, there is nothing I can't thank you for!"
"Haha, what Brother Lu said is right. I, Lou Junyuan, have remembered this favor. After the alien race is wiped out this time, I will treat you to a drink!" The other three human lords also came forward. Their leader was a middle-aged man.
Wearing a bachelor's robe and looking elegant.
The half-dragon soldiers received the captain's order and quickly counted the number of people and the soul crystals they should pay.
A total of more than 360,000 soul crystals are needed.
Although Lu Yuan had previously promised to pay all the money for them, they still had to pay part of it themselves after their repeated requests.
Lu Yuan spent about 280,000 yuan.
Lu Yuan also learned the identities of several of them during the conversation.
Deng Huan and Zheng Gu are good friends. They were both lords who came to the battlefield of all races last year. They started on the Black Swamp.
It's just that it's always in the fringe area, and it's just average.
Lou Junyuan has been in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races for five years, and his territory has risen to level four. However, he has established a cooperative relationship with the Barbarians in the Hammerfell Ruins by relying on trade.
The other two people who followed him were only second-level lords, and they were only looked after by Lou Junyuan because of their status as humans.
Lu Yuan and several others paid a deposit and were allowed to enter the city, but the half-dragon captain still told them not to cause trouble in the city, otherwise they would be hunted down by the guards.
Lu Yuan and the others naturally agreed. Their time was tight and they had no time to waste time on such matters.
But what they didn't see was that immediately after they left, several people crowded in front of the half-dragon captain, whispered a few words, and handed over some things.
The half-dragon captain waved his hand and let them in.
But after they entered, they spread out and quickly went to various parts of the city.
