Langsburg, or the Fortress of Langs, is the closest city to our chosen underpass exit.
The Langs Fortress, located on the Chil Heights, is clearly located in the interior of the Ming Dynasty United Kingdom, but it is one of the few fortified cities in the country.
The thick mixed brick wall is beautiful and solid under the design of the architect. The imaginary enemy of the ten-meter-high and three-meter-thick city wall is the giant race at the beginning, and the long moat is full of hungry piranhas.
reason? They have a good neighbor, the entrance to the underworld is open, and anyone can get in and out.
Seasonal plundering raids of underground orcs, the traditional trials of dark elves raiding teams to hunt surface elves in the middle of the night, black dragons and red dragons occasionally fly out from underground passages to fight the autumn wind to change their tastes, and wizards and necromancers who slip out to find experimental objects, look for Sacrificial demons, worshipers of evil gods... well, even I don't think it's completely unreasonable for the inhabitants of the underworld to be banished and hostile.
At least in the underground passage, we encountered three dark elf raiding teams and two orc patrols. The latter saw Casio saluting and walked away, while the former saw the gray elf for a while, and then changed it without hesitation. Aiming at the target of the trial hunting, he rushed towards us.
Well, I had just finished forming the team, and I was going to do some training to see the strength of the newcomers, but when Casio's bone bow was raised, and the golden arrows were called for a round, someone shouted "Golden Bow" The name of the dark elves immediately retreated.
Of course, Casio's valiant appearance of bowing and archery is really amazing, and it's completely different from the confused Anlia, but I found that a certain Beastmaster hunter was drooling at Casio with green eyes, so let me silently support this centaur The hero is worried.
"Golden Elementary? If it's less than thirty, that is to say, it's not bad to be considered an adult among centaurs, but it's still a little worse than the beastmaster half-dragon who is at the peak of gold, especially that guy is definitely for the purpose. Unscrupulous type. The better you perform, the more dangerous you are."
I had the heart to remind this centaur, but along the way Beifeng talked and laughed with him, which left me not knowing how to start.
The Beifeng guy only looked at his appearance, he was tall and burly, with a simple face, which gave people a good feeling, but his deep and strong voice was always slow and gentle, and his conversations were witty and well-informed, quite mature. The smell of elders and philosophers.
Well, it is precisely because he looks good and his eloquence is good, that there are so many victims and the social harm is so great.
And the image of this loyal big brother, appropriate and subtle kindness, sincere smile, especially for Casio, who seems indifferent but is actually full of worries about the future, the most important thing is that Beifeng follows the way of the young centaur, and soon , After the initial temptation, under the hard work of Beifeng, the two became chatting and laughing.
Diana couldn't stand it any longer, so she kindly went over to remind him, but she didn't say a word because of her stupid mouth, but was turned back by a sad atmosphere.
"Intelligent creatures are so shallow, they are used to making judgments based on the race and appearance of life, yes, I am a half-dragon with the blood of a black dragon, but those who are familiar with me know that I am extremely fond of life and small animals. Yes, I'm ugly, but those who know me know that I'm also very gentle."
Well, his hurt eyes seemed to be greatly wronged, as if Diana was a racist villain, and in Casio's rather annoyed glare, in the end, the kind-hearted Diana was still unable to say those disgusting filth. , can only shake his head and retreat.
"Eldest sister, you are very troublesome, and the centaur boy will know in two days."
"But, by then, it's too late!"
"Pfft!" Sure enough, the more innocent people are, the richer their ability to associate. When they heard this "late", the others laughed immediately, and then looked at the famous golden bow with playful eyes, especially the one on his lower body. vest.
"I don't know how sad the wind is, so I will sing the backyard flower the next day."
Well, I don't know who made a crooked poem, funny tone and lyrics that made everyone laugh, well, in the face of Diana's "how can you do this" questioning eyes, at least I won't admit it My momentary inspiration.
The rather arrogant Casio didn't pay attention to anyone after he entered the team. He even pretended not to hear the polite greeting from Kroos. Along the way, he used his race to call others "Hey, that goblin" and "Hey, that fat human". , has easily offended many people.
So, seeing Beifeng aiming at him, except for the kind-hearted Diana, everyone didn't mean to break it, and they were happy to see his jokes.
And then, except for another joint sniper kill by the dark elves near the exit, the journey went smoothly.
But after walking into the underground world, I was bathed in the familiar and unfamiliar warm sunlight, looking at the vast blue sky, the vast land that could not see the end, and even me, I was quite excited.
The Roland Sacred Sword at his waist also resonated slightly, as if to lightly describe its impatient mood, and the direction it hopes to go is naturally the north of the continent.
"The Principality of Donglan? The descendants of Lan? I'm going to try his fineness. If I can't meet my requirements, I'll insult this glorious name..."
Shaking his head, he threw aside the extra thoughts temporarily, and looked back, only to find that the conditions of the caravan companions were not very good.
Momo, who used to be outrageous in spirit, sat on the ground with his eyes closed, while Diana also knelt down with a pale face, chanting words in her mouth, as if she was praying.
"It won't fall, it won't fall."
When I got closer, I realized that she was actually talking to herself. Immediately, I burst into laughter.
This is not a rare problem. Even on the surface, miners have been underground for a long time. If they come out and look up at the sky, if they see the boundless sky from a narrow hole, they will feel as if they will be caught by the sky at any time. The illusion of falling from the sky.
This is an almost instinctive illusion of creatures. The experienced miners will be fine after a while, but for the dark elves who have stayed in the underground world all their lives, it is not so easy to deal with.
They were born in the underground world, they are used to being above the clouds, there are still black rock walls, and they are more accustomed to the first light in the morning being brought by the luminous moss on the rock walls.
When the seemingly natural top of the rock wall suddenly disappeared, it was as if the human beings living on the surface suddenly lost the sun and blue sky. Even if the rationale knew that it was fine, extreme physical and mental discomfort was inevitable.
As far as I know, this instinctive reaction, dubbed "open-zone phobia," takes at least a few months to overcome, and it's not uncommon for a lifetime to overcome it.
The gray elves, who were already a little photophobic, were in the worst condition, so they went straight to the carriage to rest, and that Casio, even though his hoofs were shaking slightly, still pretended to be calm and tried to stand up straight.
As for those old fritters like Silver Hook and Hoyle, I don't know how many times they've been on the surface world, and the same goes for the guys in the law department.
As for Green, who was supposed to be on the ground for the first time, with such thick armor and bird-wing helmet, he couldn't see his expression at all, but judging from the fact that he kept fumbling for the grenade around his waist, he was not feeling well, and now he is going to explode. Things need a sense of security.
What, there is one less person? Well, I have deliberately ignored it, you still have to mention him, this is your own death.
"Are you okay, or else, go to the carriage to rest for a while."
"No, no need. I'm fine."
Looking at the other people who were ignoring, even the sincere greetings from Big Brother Beifeng out of concern, how could the stubborn young people admit defeat in front of everyone.
"Then, buddy, lend me a hand, I'm a little dizzy."
The black half-dragon man suddenly sat on the ground and leaned against Casio's belly, while Casio was stunned for a moment, then understood, and his indifferent and arrogant face also brought a smile.
"Well, since that's the case, then let you lean on it."
So, the proud centaur prince also let his four hooves bend down, sat down like a war horse, and let Beifeng lean on his abdomen.
Gradually, sitting on the ground, with support, feeling the body temperature of his companions, and feeling the solid ground, the young centaur prince's beating heart also slowed down, and his "open area phobia" was greatly improved.
Then, the cold-hearted prince finally melted the iceberg and smiled gratefully.
"Thank you. Brother Beifeng."
"Thank you for what I do, it should be me thanking you."
"Haha. Brother, you are so kind."
"You haven't seen a really good place in me, and there will be opportunities in the future."
While chatting, the centaur and the half-dragon were leaning against each other, and their hands "accidentally" touched and then quickly separated.
The terrifying scene in front of me made me rub my head and secretly made up my mind that I must find a no-man's corner to bury Sad Wind alive as soon as possible, so as not to continue polluting my eyes.
And judging from everyone who was gnashing their teeth or doing vomiting, there are not a few people who hold this idea. If it is not for the fact that this young ace shooter is not weak, I am afraid that he has already put it into action.
Langsburg was not far from the exit of the dungeon, arrived just before sunset, and when we got to where we were, just approaching the city gate, but encountered new troubles.
"That one over there, take off his helmet for inspection. Whose slave is that half-dragon man? Will he bite? Do you have an epidemic prevention certificate?"
Immediately, when he heard that the big brother was regarded as an animal, the impulsive Casio was touching the bow, intending to kill the guard directly according to his old habit, but I stopped him quickly, I didn't want to just come to the human kingdom and become a The wanted.
In fact, the guard's statement is also justified. If it hadn't been for our party to have Paladins, I'm afraid, the moment he saw the half-dragon man, he would have shouted and besieged us.
Half-dragons are a special race of creatures. They are different from the dragonborn born of mixed blood.
Although they have their own ethnic groups and cultures, they are indeed unnatural products. In the chaotic ancient times, the colorful evil dragon god Tiamat and evil wizards created them, and used them to serve the evil (chaos inclined) colored dragons ( Red Dragon, Black Dragon, Blue Dragon, etc.), and Beifeng himself is a half-dragon with the blood of a black dragon.
On the other hand, the relatively kind metal dragons (golden dragons, silver dragons, etc. that tend to order) have no good feelings for these half-dragons at all. Due to the natural suppression of blood, most half-dragons are still evil dragons. Servants, for example, as the new Dragon Queen, in the Dragon City that Xiaohong is building, there are countless half-dragon servants.
This is also the reason why Beifeng was able to use that set of words to gain Casio's approval, because in many places, even if the talent is excellent and the individual combat power is not bad, because of the fate of the servants, the half-dragon people have indeed been discriminated against.
Of course, in the chaotic underground world, black dragons and red dragons are also easy to die in battle, so their servants and their descendants can easily gain freedom, and there are probably the most free half-dragon people.
Therefore, in the eyes of humans, the black half-dragon is equal to the minions of the evil dragon, and now there are paladins in this team, so this half-dragon is just a slave or trophy of a certain mage, which is a logical inference.
"I am the slave of the centaur."
"Thank you little brother, it's okay, I've seen this kind of layman a lot, don't know him in general."
Beifeng grabbed the impulsive Casio and whispered in his ear, and it seemed to avoid embarrassing the other party. Beifeng also took the initiative to admit that he was the other party's slave. Immediately, Casio was inexplicably moved.
Immediately, when the eyes of the two men were facing each other, the electric light was shining, and all the affection was in the eye contact, and the extra words were unnecessary, and in the eyes of bystanders, this scene became unbearable to witness again.
"Ouch! Momo is going to vomit, Momo is really going to vomit!"
At this moment, I was seriously thinking about throwing them away and letting them fend for themselves. Is it feasible to find an archer by myself.
Well, after this side was resolved, there was another problem there. Green insisted not to take off his helmet, and the guards naturally refused to let them go. However, their quarrel attracted more guards. When these city guards used Watching us with vigilant eyes, when the ballista on the city wall was slowly adjusting its target, I knew it would not go on like this.
"Detect evil!"
The effect of this one-ring magic, the holy light falls, the villain, or the holder of the power of chaos, will be dyed red.
In an instant, the black half-dragon man glowed red, while the others had a faint white light on their bodies.
"Master officer, look at the brilliance on his body, and he is also a kind and orderly citizen. It's just that my brother is highly burned, and the appearance under the armor is ugly. I am afraid to scare others, so I have not dared to open it."
I clearly grasped the guard's hand to explain, but with a flick of my wrist, a small purse slipped into the other's sleeve.
"Do me a favor? Look at Beyana (Goddess of Wealth)'s face."
It was not the first time that the pock-faced young guard had accepted bribes. He looked left and right and found that no one was paying attention, so he shook his sleeves again, and the sound of metal slamming was heard inside. Immediately nodded with satisfaction.
"Come in. Don't make trouble."
And when our team entered, Heloise's voice rang in my ears.
"That bag is not light, how much did it cost? It's not your habit."
"Guess."
"I guess it's all copper coins, so at most 30 copper coins, but for the guards, it's not too much."
"5 gold coins."
"How is that possible! You scumbag will lose out!!"
"Hehe, I made a lot of money before this trip. What is this little money?"
"No, it's not about money, it's about your character that will never suffer! Is it 5 gold coins? Is it the magic gold coins of the flower spirit that will dissipate overnight?"
"That thing is a hundred times more valuable than ordinary gold coins. In order to prevent the other party from taking advantage of it, wouldn't I lose a lot if I pay so much?"
"No, according to what I know about you, as long as you are happy yourself and make others unhappy, you are willing to pay no matter how much you pay. Hey, don't be rude, teacher, I'm so curious."
"Then just be curious."
While lamenting that this stupid sight really knows me deeply, I don't plan to reveal the mystery.
From what I know of her, this familiar called the Omniscient has an endless thirst for knowledge and secrets. Once curiosity arises, it will definitely go to the bottom, otherwise, it will be sleepless all night, then, I can take the opportunity to achieve my goals.
"Hey, don't be like this, I'll be thinking about it again tonight. Otherwise, I promise to teach you ice magic, and teach you ice magic that this magic idiot can use. You should say it now."
Well, sure enough, I gave in in an instant, and my destination was reached.
I am still too weak now, even if it is only a little stronger, it is good, and I can actually use undead magic and ice magic in this state. I am also a master of undead magic, but if I am labeled as a necromancer because of this, I will If you directly become a wanted criminal, this identity is over.
Therefore, although it belongs to the chaos side, the elemental magic that the human mages on the order side must also practice, becomes the only choice.
However, my knowledge of ice magic is still at the stage of gathering magic power and blasting past, and there is a magic master of all departments by my side, so I naturally asked her for advice.
"Bah, let the old lady teach you this unworthy disciple and get killed again? Dreaming!"
Well, if you use the magic pet contract to suppress her, she will indeed teach her, but if you deliberately miss a little bit, it will be enough for me to finish the game at the critical moment.
But I'm not in a hurry at all. She knows me, and I know her. In fact, as long as you find a way, this Banshee King is easy to deal with, just waiting patiently for an opportunity, an opportunity to arouse the other party's curiosity.
Sure enough, after Kyogen didn't release it for a week, she was hooked.
Seeing the kitten scratching my neck, but unable to break through the skin of the Titan's torso, I laughed.
"Okay, the answer is revealed. It is indeed 5 gold coins. Didn't my two black iron long swords with 10 gold coins interrupt the duel training with Momo? So, I put the pieces in which bag, it is considered waste. Use it. However, it used to be 5 gp, and it's worth 5 gp now."
That long sword is of poor quality, the manual cost is completely negligible, the material cost and the price of the sword are basically the same, but I will not be bored to rebuild a black iron sword.
"Impossible, when did you prepare it!"
"I'm ready on the way. For many years, as long as the performance is in place, this trick has never failed."
Yes, I knew for a long time that there would be problems when we entered the city, the bag fragments were already prepared on the way, and even the lines of bribery and the action of giving money were rehearsed.
"Bastard! How dare you grab me! Boy, wait for me."
The sudden shouting from behind made me shake my head even more.
"Hey, even this line hasn't changed, it's really lacking in novelty."
"You are not afraid that he will lead the team to trouble you."
"It's okay for a soldier to take a card. It's really strange that he can call his colleagues to seek personal revenge."
"If he slanders you as a spy, can't he be called a helper? Isn't that how knight novels are written? This is a classic routine."
I glanced at Heloise sympathetically. After reading too many Routine-style knight novels, I would really be brain-dead. With this intelligence, I am also known as the omniscient.
"Then first, I have to explain why he let the spies come in, and if it is found that we are not spies, but he is just falsely reporting military intelligence for revenge, this soldier is going to lose his head."
"As expected of my disciple, he's really cunning and cunning."
"Thanks for the compliment, but please call him experienced."
The master and apprentice looked at each other and felt a sense of sympathy for each other, but behind Momo, who saw this scene, suddenly pulled Diana's sleeve.
"Which Luo Lan do you look at? He looks at the cat so strangely that he treats it like a human being. Could it be that he is also the same kind of Beifeng, didn't he touch the eldest sister's head that night?"
Since Diana, who was so annoyed by Momo, showed that she was still a young girl, Momo kept making various malicious speculations about Roland.
"Shut up! Don't mention that night!" Diana sighed helplessly after thinking of the strange eyes everyone looked at after that day.
"Recently, luck is really bad, it's just offending the god of misfortune."
It wasn't long before the complaint reached my ears, and I immediately laughed happily.
"You didn't offend the god of misfortune, but the halo of the god of plague. Haha, I found another one with lower luck than me. Hello, unlucky Lightning Rod No. 3, let's get along well."
