Seth crossed his legs and leaned on the chair very ungracefully. He didn't care about such nonsense as being elegant, as long as he sat comfortably. He held a golden wine glass in his hand, which was a gift of fine wine from His Royal Highness Crown Prince Yawen.
Old Mark was looking down at the chessboard in front of him in deep thought. Seth's move just now put old Mark into danger immediately.
This kind of chess is unique to Roland Continent and is similar to the chess game popular in the Bright Empire. Chess is not the same. There is quite a bit of war between the walking rules. One of them is a playboy with great knowledge, and the other is a disciple of the great Dandong sage. Naturally, the killing was evenly matched.
Miaosi stood aside, but she had no intention of watching the game between the two.
In fact, Miao Si was quite dissatisfied. These dissatisfactions were mainly directed at the careless playboy in front of him.
Just to protect such a playboy, I stayed and was unable to go to sea with Roddy! In the past few days in the palace, Seth looked extremely relaxed, playing chess, reading, drinking, admiring flowers and the moon every day, and his life was extremely comfortable. But he stayed aside. Acted as a bodyguard.
In fact, Roddy had another reason for letting Miao Si stay - this playboy might run away at some point. If Miao Si and Roddy really go on an expedition together, maybe the building will be empty when they come back!
I finally met this guy, but I can't let him run away again! No matter what, we must get him back to listen to Miss Nicole!
Seeing Seth standing there with his legs crossed in an inconspicuous manner, Miaosi couldn't help but sigh.
The princess comes more frequently these days. Miaosi is extremely annoyed. In order to deceive others, Seth simply kept dressing up in women's clothing. At this moment, he looked like a lady. But he lay on the chair with his legs spread so carelessly.
Miaosi couldn't help but snorted coldly, and whispered: "Okay! Seth, sit tighter for me!"
Seth rolled his eyes and said calmly: "What's wrong? Are you finally getting a little impatient?"
Miaosi was speechless, but her hands were already shrunk in her sleeves.
After all, Seth didn't dare to really make this woman angry. Based on his understanding of women, Seth knew very well that once a woman gets angry, she can do anything.
He calmly sat upright, but still deliberately sighed: "Miss Miaosi, to be honest. I actually feel sorry for it... I know my character very well... Well, in fact, when I was at home, The guards around me are always driven crazy by me."
After saying this, Old Mark had already made a move of his own, and then he raised his head and said calmly: "Set. Concentrate on playing chess. If you anger the Black Veil Saint, I will not protect you. After this game After playing chess, you can eat.”
Seth sighed deliberately, glanced at Miaosi quickly, and said loudly: "What a pity. I'm afraid some people may not be able to eat."
Miaosi narrowed her eyes, and her tone was a bit cold: "What did you say?"
Probably sensing Miaosi's anger and a hint of danger in it, Seth immediately slapped her. He laughed and said: "No! Nothing! I said Roddy is very safe! With his strength, no one on this continent can threaten his safety, so I think we can all eat in peace." Go to sleep and don’t think about anything. Maybe he’s eating a lot of food now, so what’s there to worry about?”
Miaosi finally couldn't bear it anymore, so she raised her hand and threw a fireball out of her hand. Fortunately, Old Mark was very skilled. In a hurry, he picked up Seth's collar and lifted him aside with a bang. The chessboard and their chairs were smashed to pieces in the fireball.
Angry sparks flashed in Miaosi's eyes, but then a thought suddenly flashed in her mind. She suppressed the anger in her heart and said coldly: "Okay, now you should learn how to speak! Let's eat! After eating, … Hey, I’ll put on your makeup!”
Seth stared blankly at the smashed chessboard in front of him, and suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, okay! Old Mark, let's eat! I have a very good appetite today, so I must eat more! Haha, the worse other people's appetites are, the more I The happier I feel!”
Old Mark shook his head helplessly and sighed in his heart: "Rody, Roddy, I hope you come back soon. These two little guys are driving my old man crazy!"
****
While the three guys in Sauron's capital were making a fuss, Rody himself was already sitting on the beach on the coast of the dwarf island nation, eating grilled fish.
A hole was dug in the sand, a bonfire was lit, and a stand was built with a few branches. A few fish caught from the sea were cleaned and threaded on the branches. Under the roasting of the campfire, there is a slight fragrance.
Roddy caught the fish, but it was Nidis who prepared the dinner herself. What Roddy didn't expect was that Nidis looked so pampered, but she was very skillful when doing these things.
Rody took a piece of grilled fish handed over by Nidis and took a bite. He immediately felt that it was so delicious that he couldn't help but praise it. Nidis. She glanced at him charmingly and said with a smile: "Do you think I am a woman who doesn't understand anything? I have been alone since I was a child, so I have to learn to take care of myself."
Rody sighed and said nothing.
Nidis' simple words made Roddy vaguely think of something in his heart. Roddy himself was orphaned as a teenager. Before meeting people like Nicosette, she had always taken care of herself. What Nidis said seemed simple, but how difficult the process was was something that no one else could understand. Moreover, her identity was the same as Luo's. Dee is different. Although Roddy lives a difficult life alone. But at least she was safe, and Nidis seemed to have some hatred between the vampires. It would be even more difficult to survive while avoiding being hunted. Nidis' simple and careless words, but she didn't know that they aroused Rody's thoughts.
It was already morning now, the sea breeze was blowing gently, and there was already a faint morning light far above the sea.
Both of them were a little hungry, so they stopped talking and finished the food in front of them.
Roddy eats a lot. Seeing that she still had more to eat after eating, Nidis suddenly smiled slightly. He unexpectedly took out another raw fish from behind.
The fish had been cleaned by Nidis, but she didn't know when she secretly put it aside. Nidis smiled and borrowed the Dragon Curse Scimitar from Rody.
After Nidis put the fish away, she started cutting with the scimitar in her hand, cutting off a piece of fish meat in a matter of seconds. Cut into a dozen thin slices. Then he spread it on a piece of kelp picked from the sea and handed it to Rody with a smile.
Roddy seemed a little curious and smiled: "What? Can this be eaten?"
Nidis smiled and said: "Simple is a bit simpler. Although there are no other seasonings here, it is still okay to eat like this."
Rody gently picked up a piece of fish and put it in his mouth. The fish meat, which was originally thought to be jerky, felt strangely delicious in my mouth. It almost melts in your mouth. Rody felt slightly surprised and couldn't help but let out a "yi" sound.
Nidis smiled and said, "How about it? This is the way I learned from the dwarves. Although it's not quite authentic, it shouldn't be too bad."
Rody ate the first piece so happily that he couldn't help but put two pieces into his mouth. Although it still has a bit of fishy smell of raw fish, the delicious taste has covered up the faint fishy smell. Roddy ate happily and ate all the dozen fish fillets in a moment.
Seeing that Nidis hadn't tasted it yet, Rody's face turned red and he whispered: "What is this? I have never heard that raw fish can have such a delicious taste."
Nidis smiled softly and said: "When you came back from fishing in the sea just now, didn't you notice that the fish you brought back were different? The fish I grilled just now are just ordinary sea fish, but the fish I left here specially The fish is different. If I remember correctly, it is a kind of fish that is suitable for slicing. "
Rody smiled bitterly and said: "I don't notice any difference in these fish." After a pause, Rody smiled again: "You haven't eaten it yet. Give me the knife and I will cut it up."
Nidis didn't object and just handed the fish and knife to Roddy. Rody briefly recalled Nidis's action of cutting the fish just now, and in a moment he dismembered the fish and cut it into more than a dozen pieces and placed them in front of him.
Nidis just looked at Roddy with a pair of smiling eyes and did not eat.
Rody was startled and asked curiously: "What? Did I cut it wrong?"
Nidis shook her head: "You are right to cut the fish. With your ability, you naturally remember the action of cutting the fish very clearly... But, if it is so simple and you have learned it, this unique delicacy of the dwarves What else is strange?”
Nidis stretched out two slender fingers to twist a thin piece of fish, and said with a smile: "Look, although you cut it well, the size is still different. There are many ways to cut fish. What I just used was a thin cutting method. In addition, there are also flat cutting methods, flat cutting methods, line cutting methods, snake belly methods... Your knife skills are enough to fight the Paladin, but you have to cut off the authentic ones. The sashimi is still far away.”
Roddy didn't believe it, so he grabbed a piece of fish and put it in his mouth, but he only took two bites before spitting it out. Nidis pursed her lips and smiled: "Don't you know that fish have spines? The one I cut for you just now There is something special about a piece of meat. You messed up everything so much that you got all the fish bones and fish bones in... "
The two of them laughed and laughed for a while, and the original barrier gradually faded away.
After resting at the beach for a while, the two finally got up and walked inland.
Although the naval battle at night was some distance away from the coast, in the quiet night, the roaring and explosions at sea had already reached the shore. Originally, there were some small dwarf villages on the seaside. Hearing the sound of fighting on the sea, the residents were frightened and left far away.
After walking for a while, the two came across an abandoned village. I found a random house and picked up some clothes. Nidis finally no longer had to expose her legs that could tempt men to commit crimes.
She put on her clothes and breathed a sigh of relief. Although she didn't mind exposing her body in front of Roddy, the temperature at the beach was very cold at night and in the morning. She was wearing thin clothes, and although she didn't say it, she was already so cold that she couldn't bear it.
The two of them were not in a hurry and rested in the village for half a day. At night, those people who had been frightened by the fighting finally came back one after another.
Roddy then met the legendary dwarves for the first time.
The appearance of these dwarves is not much different from that of other races of humans. Most people look like ordinary people.
According to legend, the dwarves are all short and stocky guys. Regardless of gender, they all have thick beards, their voices are as thick as bells, and they have bad tempers and weird tempers.
But I saw these dwarf people. But he seems to be an ordinary human being at all. The only difference is that these people are indeed shorter than ordinary humans.
Most of the men here are much shorter than Rody. Rody's stature is considered tall among ordinary people, and the tallest man here is only as close as Rody's chest. Most men are only about 1.6 meters tall.
These people saw Rody and Nidis alone, and they all looked unfriendly at first. Especially those men, their eyes lit up when they saw Nidis, and they looked vaguely malicious.
Looking at the crowd gradually surrounding him, Rody originally wanted to communicate with them. However, Nidis gently pulled Roddy and whispered: "Don't say too much. You don't understand their language... Besides, these dwarf guys are greedy and cruel by nature. They like to bully the weak and fear the strong. Be more cruel. , they are afraid of you. If you are gentle, they will bully you!"
Rody didn't believe it at first, but he saw that several guys had picked up knives and other weapons and gathered around, and some people started shouting. Rody had no choice but to sigh.
I saw Rody suddenly moving. His body rushed into the crowd in an instant like lightning. He immediately heard several dwarf guys screaming and the weapons in their hands flew into the sky. Then Rody had already carried the two guys back to Nidis. beside. With his size. Holding the two dwarves in his hands was like carrying two chickens.
Nidis put on a fierce look on her face, spoke loudly with a look that Rody couldn't understand, and then pointed at Rody.
Roddy watched Nidis wink at him and understood, so he tried his best to put on a fierce look. Although he didn't pretend to be anything like it, his skill just now was so amazing that he hit seven or eight people in an instant. Coupled with his tall stature, the dwarves all showed a bit of fear. I couldn't help but took a few steps back.
Nidis murmured a few words, then pointed at the two dwarves in Rody's hands, and deliberately raised her palms to scratch her neck hard.
The dwarves who were watching screamed in fear, and then fell to the ground.
At night, the largest house in the village was given up to Rodinidis and the two of them, and these dwarves took out food from home and sent it over.
Two beautiful women were sent to serve Roddy. The two women who were sent had flattering smiles on their faces, and they were even more docile and obedient, without any appearance of being forced. A slightly older dwarf stood in front of Rody and spoke. Listening to the jabbering words, Rody couldn't understand a word, but Nidis kept talking to him next to him.
The expression on the dwarf's face became more and more respectful, but when Rody looked at the expression on his face, he still felt a faint strange feeling. It seemed that behind this respectful expression, there was some ferocity and ferocity hidden.
Seeing that Rody seemed a little impatient, Nidis waved the dwarf out. However, Rody pushed away the two women who were fanning him and beating his legs and drove them out.
"What's wrong? Why are you so cold-faced again?" Nidis seemed to be laughing secretly.
Rody sighed: "I just feel that these dwarves are too spineless. I just beat a few of them a little, and they were scared to death. Men are like this, and women are like this too. They accept everything without any sense of resistance. This way How can a spineless race survive to this day?”
Nidis seemed to smile. He said calmly: "You only see this side of them, but you don't see the other side!"
She sighed, and then continued: "Dwarves are the most cunning in nature. When facing a strong enemy, knowing that they are outmatched, they simply act submissive, like slaves, and even sacrifice themselves. All women can... in order to continue to survive! But they have never been really submissive in their hearts. They are like a bad wolf, watching you all the time. Once they find an opportunity, they are sure to defeat you. They will suddenly bite you! Don’t look at how respectful they are to us now. They have no way to deal with us for the time being. Once..."
"Oh?" Rody was a little strange.
"Of course!" Nidis snorted, and then continued: "Speaking of cruelty, there is no race more cruel than them in this world. If you hadn't taken action just now to establish your power and have the strength to shock them, I'm afraid we two Now...well, you will be brutally killed, and I...hum, you will understand it just by looking at the way those men look at me."
When she said the last sentence, Nidis seemed to blush a little and coughed slightly. Then he continued: "Don't doubt it. The dwarves were famous for their ferocity in the past. The Kingdom of Gordon has suffered a lot of losses. The Kingdom of Gordon is geographically superior, and their sea fleets often have to pass through in the inland sea. The territorial waters of the dwarves are often robbed. Generally, pirates will not kill people if they rob the goods. But if they encounter a dwarf warship at sea, not only the goods will be robbed, but also the people will be killed. If you die, a woman will..."
"Deal with this kind of enemy. Unless you have absolute strength to suppress it, otherwise, you will just wait to be bullied!" Nidis sighed: "I have lived in the dwarf tribe for several years, and I still have some feelings for them. Understood. The dwarves' rule of survival is: to bully enemies who are weaker than themselves, to simply show weakness and obey, but they are always looking for opportunities! If you are deceived by their appearance, be prepared to be bitten by them in the future!”
Rody frowned: "Then it seems that this race is a bit scary."
Nidis sighed: "Isn't it? During the war between the dwarves and Roland, the Teutonic Army of Roland once conquered a dwarf city. At that time, almost all the conquered dwarf cities They completely surrendered and obeyed, even sacrificing their wives and women to survive! All the Teutonic troops believed that they could no longer pose any threat to themselves in the face of such obedient people. Known as the hometown of knights, it is the birthplace of chivalry in the Roland continent. Their army also maintained the spirit of chivalry and did not abuse the local dwarf residents. However, after the armistice agreement came out, the temple ordered the army to retreat and no longer attack the dwarves. The Teutonic army was the last to evacuate the dwarf island country, but was ambushed by the dwarves! "
Rody frowned: "Ambush after the armistice? Aren't the dwarves afraid of another war?"
"Huh, the dwarves are certainly confident. I heard they have something that the temple is very afraid of." Nidis. He sneered a few times and said lightly: "The Teutonic army never expected that the seemingly submissive dwarves could turn their backs overnight. An army of five thousand people was ambushed and defeated, and three thousand people were captured! Later, all those prisoners were They were brutally executed by the dwarves, without even giving the Teutonic Kingdom a chance to redeem their prisoners of war! Moreover, the Teutonic Kingdom was the only landlocked country in the Roland continent, and their land was not surrounded by the sea. There is no navy, so the dwarves are not afraid of the Teutons’ revenge!”
Rody sighed: "What happened next? The temple didn't come forward to vent its anger on the Teutonic Kingdom? I heard that the Teutonic Kingdom was the most firmly on the side of the temple. Even this time, the temple was torn apart from many countries in Roland Continent. Face, the Teutonic Kingdom did not join our alliance, but firmly stood on the side of the temple. "
Nidis smiled slightly: "So what? The dwarves will be weak when they should be weak. But when they should be tough, they will definitely be tough to the end! Since they know that the other party cannot do anything to them, of course they will not admit their mistake. So that matter was dropped.”
Seeing Rody's speechless look, Nidis smiled and said: "The most interesting thing is not yet here... The dwarves later declared themselves the victorious nation, and in the historical records of the dwarfs, they declared that war... The dwarves won. What the record says is that after a bloody and tenacious struggle by the dwarf army, they finally defeated the Roland continental coalition army and drove it out of their territory... As for how they had to compromise in the first place, if they attacked the opponent after the truce, they would naturally Not a word was mentioned.”
****
Rody and Nidis discussed it again the next day. Rody wanted to find a boat and go directly back to Sauron. However, although the surrounding area is along the coast, most of the boats that can be found are small fishing boats. If such fishing boats encounter big winds and waves, they will naturally be unable to sail. Moreover, Rody himself is really an amateur at operating sea control ships.
With his strength, although he can fly freely. But a strong man in the field is not a god after all. If he can fly across the entire strait by his own ability, that is something he cannot do. Even with the rod of Moses, I can walk around in the sea at will...
Nidis suddenly smiled and said, "You are just looking for excuses when you give so many reasons!"
"What?" Rody was stunned for a moment.
Nidis smiled slightly: "With your strength, if you want to go back, there are a hundred ways. But you are giving yourself so many excuses now. It's just that you don't want to go back immediately, right?"
Roddy was speechless.
Nidis's eyes suddenly lit up and she whispered: "You said that King Sauron asked you to help them get something from the dwarves. I think that although you may not be willing to help them do this, but in your own heart You are also very curious, right? I guess you must be very interested in the thing that can threaten the temple... I guessed it right
Rody thought for a while and smiled: "You are indeed very smart, and you can guess my thoughts so accurately. Yes, I am really curious. What magical thing does the dwarves have in their hands that can make the temple like this? of fear.”
Nidis rolled her eyes and continued to smile: "Well, that's right. Not only are you curious, but you are probably thinking at this moment: If I get this thing, it might be of great benefit. Maybe I can threaten the temple. Anyway. He will always be the enemy of the temple in the future, so it would be good to have one more bargaining chip in his hand..." At this point, Nidis looked at Roddy with a smile in her eyes.
Rody sighed: "Okay, okay. You are just the roundworm in my stomach, so that's alright."
Nidis frowned with her crescent-shaped eyebrows and said dissatisfied: "You are not allowed to describe me as such a disgusting thing!"
Now that I have made up my mind, I am not in a hurry to go back immediately. The two of them were determined to go inland to the dwarves.
But before leaving, another small episode happened.
In the morning, a group of dwarves returned to the village with a prisoner tied up.
The old man looked exhausted, his clothes were all soaked, and his beard and hair were weakly stuck to his face. Rody couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw it.
This man is actually a Sith Master!
The dignified top magician of the Roland Continent Magic Association was actually tied up like a dog. And it seemed that he had been robbed. The magic auxiliary rings originally carried by the magician had been put on the fingers of the two dwarves. Even the staff inlaid with magic gems had been removed by a The dwarves took it in their hands as trophies.
Some other dwarves also had greedy and satisfied smiles on their faces, and they had obviously received a lot of benefits. This is not surprising. As a magician, he must carry a lot of magic gems with him. Those gems are very important to magic. To a master, it is a precious magic material, but to an ordinary person, it is an attractive wealth and money.
Sith drooped his eyelids feebly. Roddy looked at the embarrassed appearance of the old man in front of him and couldn't help but sigh. He asked Nidis to stop the dwarves and let Sith go.
After helping the old magician up, Rody couldn't help but sigh: "Master Sith, why are you here?"
Sis finally opened his eyes, looked at Roddy in front of him, smiled bitterly, and then slowly said: "In the battle at sea, I ran out of mana, and the warship sank in the end. I floated to the shore along with the sea water. Okay. It’s easy to see someone who wanted to call for help, but was somehow tied up here.”
Rody held back his laughter and said: "With your strength, you are no less than a Paladin. How did you end up in this situation?"
The old magician had a rare expression of anger on his face. He gritted his teeth and said: "You boy, we have worked so hard to create a situation. Although we have expired your term, we have not treated you badly from the beginning to the end! You actually walked away! No matter how strong I am, I can withstand a A fleet? Those dwarves spotted the royal flag on the flagship and rushed towards our ship! If I hadn't jumped into the sea in time, I might have been captured by now!"
Having said this, the old magician sighed: "I've been seasick at sea for so many days. My health was not good to begin with. If it had been on normal days, huh..."
Roddy sighed. Although he didn't know the pain of seasickness, he had experienced it when he first went to sea as an envoy to Roland Continent. He originally had strong warriors under his command, but when he got seasick. I kept vomiting every day and couldn't eat or drink. After two or three days like this, even an iron man couldn't stand it. No matter how strong a warrior is, there will be those who can't even hold the sword in the end.
At this moment, the old magician's strength is obviously greatly reduced.
Nidis asked the dwarves to release the old magician. And ordered them to return the looted items to the Sith. Although he is not happy in his heart - after all, as the top magician of Roland Continent, Sith has a lot of good things! But in the face of a strong man like Roddy, he could only hand it over obediently.
Changed clothes. After resting for half a day, the old magician finally regained a little strength. He had already vomited out the seawater he had filled his stomach with. Hearing that Rody decided to go to the interior of the dwarves, Sith seemed a little excited, but then Roddy blocked him back with a sentence: "I'm just curious and want to take a look. Don't expect me to help." You go get that thing!”
The three of them stayed in the village for another day, and another day passed before setting off on the road.
There are no horses in the village, so the three of them can only walk. Fortunately, Roddy had read the map when he was at sea. I know that if I walk deeper for half a day, I can find a slightly larger town. It’s not too late to look for horses to travel anywhere.
However, less than an hour after the three of them set out on the road, they encountered a group of dwarf rangers. Those soldiers were actually coming towards Roddy and others.
It turned out that although the dwarves in those villages were obedient on the surface, they had secretly sent people to the inland towns to report the news. These soldiers came to capture Rody and others.
Facing more than thirty cavalry, Roddy easily defeated them all. They grabbed a few war horses to travel, which saved the three of them from the hardship of walking.
After walking for half a day, we arrived at the slightly larger town.
The towns of the dwarves are not much different from the towns Rody saw on the Roland continent. The only difference is that the legendary superb skills of the dwarves in making weapons are indeed true. Even in such a small town, there are several weapons shops. Rody took a casual stroll and found a few pretty good swords. It seemed that the reputation of the dwarves for making weapons was well-deserved.
The three of them walked on the street for a while, because their appearance and figure were so different from the locals that they attracted many people's attention. Moreover, now that the Sauron Kingdom's army has landed in the south, and news of the war has spread, Roddy and the three of them do not look like dwarves at first glance, and they have attracted a lot of malicious looks.
Sith was already prepared. Before coming, according to the plan, in order to cooperate with Rody's actions in the dwarves, Sith had prepared some things.
He took out two magic gems and gave them to Roddy and Nidis. He chanted a spell and changed their appearance.
These are two magic gems used to perform "transformation". In order to save the consumption of magic power, Sith did not make too many changes to the appearance of the two people. They only shortened their bodies a bit, and after simple makeup, they looked like two men and women from the dwarf tribe.
As for the Sith himself, he was originally a strong man with superb magic. He cast a transformation spell on his own and basically got it done.
The only fly in the ointment is that Sith did not consider an "extra" person like Nidis. The two magical transformation gems were originally prepared for himself and Rody. Now give a piece to Nidis. He can only rely on his own magic power to change his appearance. This consumed a lot of his mana in vain.
After spending money to buy a carriage and hiring two dwarf drivers, the three of them headed for a city in the interior.
Originally, the three of them jumped into the sea and came to the shore. Not to mention money, they didn't even have a copper coin. Of course Rody didn't have any money on him, let alone Nidis. When he escaped, he was dragged away by Rody before he even had time to put on his clothes. Although the old magician had prepared some funds for activities, he did not bring them out in the rush.
In the end, he decided to hit Sith, and sold some of his magic gems in this small town in exchange for some gold coins commonly used in the dwarf kingdom. As for the old magician's heart, he was obsessed with those extremely precious pieces of top-quality magic. How painful the gem is is out of Roddy's consideration.
The destination of the three people is a medium-sized city of the dwarves, named Kawato. This is the second largest city of the Yaki Kingdom of the dwarves. Because it is located in the middle of a basin between two mountains and rivers in the island country, it means It is the "gateway to mountains and rivers". Hence the name.
Along the way, we encountered the mobilization of many armies, and those armies were all heading south. Obviously, the frontal attack of the Sauron Kingdom's army put a lot of pressure on the dwarves. The news is that the Kingdom of Sauron collapsed in the past few days! Because King Sauron had done sufficient intelligence work and took advantage of the sneak attack. They encountered almost no decent resistance and defeated several armies of the dwarves!
This also caused some trouble for Rody and others. The further back they went, the more stringent the inspections on the road became. It seemed that they were on guard against a spy sneaking in.
After spending money to bribe the officers guarding the city gate in Kawado City, the three of them were able to enter the city smoothly.
The second city of the dwarves is indeed very prosperous. There were many pedestrians coming and going on the street, but it could be seen that there was a hint of nervousness before the war. Many pedestrians were carrying large and small bags of daily necessities home. There are also frequent patrols of soldiers on the street.
Roddy was in a very relaxed mood. Just casually watching the scenery on the roadside. The architectural style of the dwarves is completely different from that of Roland. Perhaps because it is located in an island country and is often hit by typhoons, the buildings here are not tall, and most of them are short ground-floor buildings. Many of the people walking on the streets of the dwarves were men wearing swords and weapons. These people deliberately opened their clothes on their chests, with fierce expressions on their faces, and ran rampant on the street. Some even carried a wine bottle in their hands. . His face was full of drunkenness.
These people often walk in groups, and others stay far away. Even the patrolling soldiers rarely provoke these guys.
Nidis explained: These are a kind of people unique to the dwarf kingdom, warriors. Because the dwarves have great talent in making weapons, there are many civilian weapons in circulation. These warriors are often desperadoes who practice martial arts. After being bribed by some powerful nobles, he acted as a personal thug. The high-ranking nobles of the dwarf tribe often take pride in whoever adopts the most warriors. Once a war breaks out, these people can be immediately added to the army as a fighting force. Moreover, the dwarf warrior class is very complicated, and there are many desperate criminals mixed in, because as long as you take refuge with a powerful master and become a warrior, even the crimes you committed in the past will be forgiven.
Therefore, these warriors have become a unique class of the dwarves, equivalent to the knights of the Roland continent. They are supported by their own masters, have no worries about food and drink, and often make trouble in the streets. As long as it doesn't cause too much trouble, the patrolling soldiers often ignore it because they are afraid of offending the masters behind them.
"So... where are those people?" Rody pointed to some people squatting on the ground on the street. Those people also wore weapons and seemed to be dressed like warriors, but their clothes and demeanor seemed a little downcast.
"Those are the dilapidated samurai." Nidis sighed: "They are also commonly known as the ronin samurai. That is, after the collapse of some nobles, some of the samurai who were originally supported by their subordinates lost their backers and had to live on the streets to find new buyers. Don't look at how depressed they are now. As soon as they find a new master, they will immediately become more domineering, each one more fierce than the other. "
Roddy suddenly rolled his eyes a few times and whispered to the old magician: "How much money do you have left on you?"
Sith felt a chill in his heart and immediately asked on guard: "What do you want to do?"
Rody smiled slightly: "I was thinking it would be fun to buy a few warriors to play with..."
