Chapter 574 (1/2)
Colinburg is across the river from the northern part of the forest of elves.
Since the divine kingdom of the world tree came into being, there have been many more ferrymen in collinburgh, and they have been rowing with ambitious adventurers to the other side of the river to earn some extra money.
After the warrior ATOS decided to go to the forest of the elves, he and Hercules, the orc, went on a boat with other adventurers.
The upper reaches of the weimur River are much narrower than the wide lower reaches, and ferries can go back and forth in less than 20 minutes.
On this side of the river is a simple wharf, which seems to have been built temporarily.
On the dock, there are more adventurers.
These are people who are attracted by the remains of the gods, from all races, but most of them are human beings.
The strength of these adventurers is uneven, but the weakest are also black iron ranks, and there are many silver professionals rarely seen in towns.
It can be seen that the attraction of the remains of gods is quite great for adventurers.
Moreover, these adventurers even set up a simple wooden stronghold on this Bank of the river, and even saw the high walls and some patrolling mercenaries.
And as soon as the rowing boat in front of her came to the shore, a proud looking mercenary stepped forward to collect gold from the people on board.
”That's the wolf mercenary regiment. This stronghold was set up by them. It's also for the convenience of all those who want to enter the spirit ruins and take risks, but All the adventurers who enter this stronghold are required to pay five pounds for protection. ”
The boatman explained to his guests.
Many of the new adventurers were in a fury.
”Five pounds, why not take them?”
Someone couldn't help saying.
Maybe five pounds is not enough for a senior adventurer to spend one time in the casino, but that price is equivalent to half a year's income of an imperial civilian family.
”I can't help it. It's a rule of the wolf mercenary regiment. All people who enter the stronghold must obey. They are the largest mercenary group in the north of the Empire. There are several mercenaries in the golden rank alone. Unless you can show enough strength, otherwise You can only listen to them honestly. ”
The boatman shook his head.
”No, we'll change places.”
Said one indignantly.
”That's it
Other adventurers followed.
The boatman reluctantly replied:
”ladies and gentlemen, I advise you to pay the gold pounds honestly, which is also for your good.”
The adventurers are more angry:
”what? Is the wolf mercenary regiment so arrogant? It has something to do with the candidates in the North! ”
”If we don't enter the stronghold, will the wolf mercenary force us?”
”Yes! If we don't enter their strongholds, we can still go to the remains of the gods
The adventurers were angry, while the boatman sighed and explained:
”yes, but if there is no shelter from the stronghold of the wolf mercenary regiment, you adults may not be able to escape the pursuit of the elves...”
”Elves Chase? ”
The adventurers looked at each other.
”That's right. Since we are all aiming at the remains of the gods, we should all know which God this relic belongs to That's the God the elves once served. So These elves are not soft on the adventurers who come here... ”
Said the boatman.
”The spirit of the forest of elves Is that terrible? ”
Asked the adventurer incredulously.
The boatman nodded:
”of course, you adults don't know. Now adventurers who often go back and forth to the remains of the gods have even reached a consensus. In the ruins and forests, it is not terrible to encounter demons or high-level Warcraft, but if you encounter fairies You have to be careful. ”
”If you run into the elves and you can't kill them all at once, then wait for them to chase them crazy...”
”You should have heard about the origin of these elves, these guys It's really crazy to hunt down people without stopping. ”
”If you can't get to the stronghold in time, unless you have the strength of gold rank, otherwise you will regret it...”
After listening to the boatman's words, the new adventurers on board looked at each other, while the boatman pointed to the adventurer's stronghold in front of him and continued:
”Hey, adults, although this stronghold is so perfect, it is actually the fifth stronghold of the wolf mercenary regiment. The first four were originally located in the forest closer to the spirit relics, but they were all destroyed by the elves. ”
”fortunately, the elves don't know the location of this stronghold, and it's close to the river, and the wolf mercenary regiment also has a lot of spare ships. If it's really besieged by the elves, it's easy to evacuate.”
As the adventurers listened, their expressions became more and more dignified.”Elves, are they strong?”
Someone asked with a serious look.
”They are not strong or not, but How to say that, if you really meet adults, you will know that they are a group of lunatics... ”
Said the boatman.
”Well, here we are. I wish you all the treasures in the remains of the gods.”
The wolves came up, and the mercenaries came ashore.
There was a stir among the adventurers, but in the end they paid the pounds honestly.
No way, they found that the wolf mercenary regiment, even the mercenaries who collected gold pounds, were in the top position of silver, and they had no silver median in this ship
At least That's what most adventurers on board think.
The men on the boat went down one by one, and soon it was the turn of ATOS and Hercules.
And when it was their turn to pay, Hagrid, the orc, lit up his breath with a sneer.
The mercenary's face changed greatly.
Fortunately, Hercules just lit it up and put it away.
Immediately the mercenary stood respectfully aside, not to mention charging, but to let the two get off the ship.
Hagrid sneered, and then accompanied Athos into the stronghold.
The strong are privileged everywhere.
There are more adventurers in the stronghold.
Not only that, they even saw a lot of stalls of the chamber of Commerce, selling various materials for exploring the remains of gods.
Many of these chambers of Commerce came from all over the Empire, but there were others of other races and forces.
Atos even saw a dark dwarf's stall called Amway's
I don't know how these guys from the underground come here to trade.
Of course, after only a few eyes, they no longer pay attention to it. They just pass by this stronghold, and their ultimate goal is to go to the nearby spirit city of winterfall.
Hercules has got the map drawn by the adventurer from the black market in advance, which has marked the general location of winterfall city. They just need to go directly.
However, just as they passed through the stronghold of the wolf mercenary regiment, they were stopped by a mercenary soldier who came in a hurry:
”wait a minute, sir. Are you going to go to the relics of the gods?”
It was a soldier in heavy armor, and his strength reached the top of gold.
”What can I do for you?”
Atos did not answer directly.
The soldier hesitated for a moment. First, he made a non-standard imperial Etiquette:
