Chapter Six Drainage Full
One thousand three hundred and twenty people.
Roger looked at it several times, and after he was sure that he was absolutely not dazzled, he finally threw the report in his hand on the table weakly. He suddenly had a headache and frowned. Ajiani, who was standing next to him, gently rubbed his temples.
"Damn, why are these adventurers as many as locusts? We only burned four of them four days ago, but another four hundred came in the past few days!"
Ajiani gently poked Roger's face with her fingernails and said, "But they have become much more honest recently! No one dares to cause trouble."
Roger said tiredly: "Ajani, this is the real terrible thing. Now the adventurers who come to Dresden are getting higher and higher. As long as there is a small thing and a reason, a silent volcano will burst out. We are sitting on the crater now!"
Ajiani said, "But this is not a way to prevent them like this! You are so tired, let alone those from the Legal Affairs Office. Greedy adventurers will not be afraid of death, and they will definitely not be willing to leave the Principal of Alay. The sisters of the 'Dark Side of the Moon' said that if they go out now, adventurers will follow behind. Although no one dares to really take action so far, it seems that it is only a matter of time! Adults, the wise man of the Elf tribe once said that when the flood comes, the best way is not to build a long embankment before the flood, but to guide it to the sea. Since we cannot stop adventurers from coming to the Principal of Alay, then we should retreat to the Central Mountains. Life in the human kingdom is really not suitable for elves."
Something suddenly flashed in Roger's mind and immediately jumped up, which scared Ajiani.
"Wait a minute! What did you just say? Don't stop the flood, but introduce it into the sea...ahha! I understand!"
Roger hugged Ajiani, kissed her heavily, and rubbed her chest and buttocks hard with both hands. Before she could react, Roger had already gone out like a whirlwind, leaving only the red and untidy Ajiani in the house. She had not yet figured out what had happened!
The ancient Dresden has now become a huge adventurer transfer station. A group of adventurers came here to chase the elves, rested and inquire about the news, and then quietly left the ancient city and dived towards the central mountain range in the southeast. Although there are hundreds of elves in Dresden, the strength of the "Dark Side of the Moon" shows that no adventurer would be stupid enough to fight against the army, not to mention that this is the elf guard of a bloodthirsty magician.
No one knows how strong Roger's magic is, but he easily killed a strong warrior with the most basic magic missile, which was enough to make all adventurers frightened. Moreover, he didn't need to chant spells or use any magic props. Dozens of magic missiles fell like pouring rain. How can people resist it?
The two highest level magicians among the adventurers were also present that day. After seeing this scene, they looked pale and said only one sentence: "He is not a human! This is a ability that only the devil has!"
Seventeen-year-old Martha has been in Dresden for almost a week. She came here with her brother's adventure team, hoping that the elves can fulfill their dream of becoming famous and wealthy. Martha is very proud of his brother, a level 10 swordsman, and deeply trusts the abilities of her companions. This seven-person adventure team has successfully completed many tasks in the past year!
But now the atmosphere in the entire tavern is very depressing, and from time to time, adventurers will whisper the curse of the court magician dressed as the devil and his elf guard. They have become nightmare for all adventurers!
The famous Feige combination among adventurers has been completed. Feige, who survived by chance, and another warrior was approaching the verge of madness and was drunk every day in the tavern. But no one would laugh at Feige. Fengdie was light and paced, the flying wheel saw and gentle killing were deeply engraved in the hearts of every adventurer. Adventurers knew that if they stood in Feige's position, they would not be able to escape the fate of death. If Roger had not shocked Fengdie and Ajiani, Feige would not have the chance to lie in the tavern to get drunk.
Martha sighed. She and her friends had seen fully armed elves on the streets of Dresden more than once.
These elves are not the kind, gentle and beautiful elves she imagined. Their faces are indeed unique to elves, but they are all expressionless. Even if there are only five elves guards on the road, Martha's brother dare not come forward to challenge them. Martha knew that this was not cowardice, and even she had to feel the fierce murderous aura on these elves, let alone other people. People with this cold feeling and fierce murderous aura have always been the opponents that adventurers are most reluctant to provoke.
Later, Martha learned that there was a name for the Elf Guard, the Dark Side of the Moon. When she heard this name, her young heart suddenly thrustled.
This tavern is only ordinary in Dresden. But now there are too many adventurers, and even the most ordinary ale has increased by three times. With the demon wizard and his elf guards, the adventurer cannot play elves at will, so he has to stay in the tavern without doing anything. There are a few painful moans in the dull pub at any time. Martha knows that these wounded are adventurers who have just returned from the Central Mountains.
Not long ago, the demon wizard suddenly mobilized the Snow Bear Knight and the Elf Guard to block the two levels leading to the Central Mountains. All adventurers were only allowed to go out of the mountain and not enter the mountain. The angry adventurers quickly gathered more than 500 people, and opposite them were the 300-man Duomo army and the troops of the Dark Side of the Moon. Finally, someone lost his mind and began to attack the Elf Guard. Just like a barrel of fire yao was ignited, all adventurers were controlled by anger and greed. They roared and rushed towards the Elf Guard, trying to defeat the Dark Side of the Moon in one fell swoop. Elf with superb martial arts was a sky-high price!
This small-scale conflict ended with the adventurer's defeat. On the way to charge, more than 200 adventurers were shot and killed. The power of a hundred elite elves archers' salvo shooting is definitely not comparable to that of human archers. The most fatal blow to adventurers' confidence is the elves' arrows.
The arrows that roared and shining with bright blue light were so beautiful, but they had a fatal murderous intent. Many of the long arrows only shot on the adventurers' arms or thighs, and some even wiped out a small wound. However, all the adventurers injured by the arrow had difficulty breathing and were weak all over, and slowly fell down.
"God! The arrows of these elves are poisonous!" Shocking sounds one after another, and the morale of the adventurer who was still charging in the rain of arrows suddenly fell to a low point.
Has anyone ever heard that elves who have always believed in the light also use poisonous arrows? And it is such a fierce and violent poison! Rogue was once again confirmed as a devil. If it weren't for the demon, how could he turn the kind and peaceful elves into such a terrifying war machine?
At this time, naturally no one would remember what methods the adventurers used to search for elves over the past thousand years.
Fengdie's huge wheel saw once again shocked the adventurer's nerves. Her flying figure has become the spokesperson for the god of death. The huge wheel saw can easily cut off slightly smaller weapons. This time she did not wear a covered helmet. All adventurers were shocked when they saw Fengdie's peerless appearance. In this moment of silence, the wheel saw shining with green light would gently kiss their throats.
Behind her, ten elves guardians led two hundred snow bear knights to fight with the adventurers in close combat. The defense line they formed firmly blocked the adventurers, and the deadly arrows flew past the knights' bodies, shooting down the adventurers who were fighting with them one by one.
The battle was short. After spending more than four hundred lives, only more than one hundred adventurers fled back to Dresden in a panic. Fortunately, the demon wizard's subordinates had no intention of chasing. It seemed that the order they received was just to block the passage to the central mountains.
This path was blocked, and if you want to sneak into the central mountain range, adventurers would have to walk nearly a hundred kilometers more. In the snowy northern country, adventurers would have to bring a lot of supplies. If you go such a long way, the risk would undoubtedly be much greater.
But this battle clearly made the adventurers realize that their strength was still quite different from that of regular army, especially the Dark Side of the Moon. The adventurers who stayed in Dresden are not willing to give up. They are still waiting for opportunities and waiting for the chance to be single, although this opportunity is really slim.
Seeing that many powerful adventurers were injured, Martha couldn't help but be glad that her brother's team didn't have time to catch up with the battle, otherwise, she wouldn't dare to think about whether she could have the chance to come back alive.
While Martha was thinking about it, a big man ran into the tavern excitedly, and he shouted: "Hey! There is a great news! That demon magician has changed his mind! The rumored hunter certificate these days is actually true! The time of issuance is very evil, it is said to be..."
Another middle-aged swordsman jumped up, hurriedly covered his mouth, and looked around nervously. Everyone in the tavern stared at him. He barely smiled, greeted the team members, and hurriedly left the tavern.
At this moment, everyone was no longer in the mood to drink and whispered to each other. Many adventurers even checked out and left, so they went outside to inquire about the news.
"Brother, what is the hunter certificate?" Martha asked curiously.
"I heard that adventure groups holding hunter certificates will be allowed to enter the Central Mountains and be able to replenish supplies on Rogue's territory. I thought it was a rumor two days ago, but now it seems that it is true!" Martha's brother replied.
Martha suddenly felt a little uneasy and said timidly: "Brother, do you think this is a trap? Maybe there are some vicious monsters waiting for us in the Central Mountains! Brother, these elves are much more powerful than we think, so let's go back!"
The brother hesitated for a moment and finally said, "What Martha said makes sense. We should be more careful. However, if there is a hunter certificate, it is better to have one than nothing! I don't want to conflict with those elves armed to the teeth! Now, go out first to see if the hunter certificate is real."
It turns out there is a hunter certificate.
The certificate is issued at the Legal Affairs Department, and for the first time twenty hunter certificates were issued, each certificate allowed the holder to take ten entourages into the Central Mountains through the Elf Guards. The conditions for obtaining the certificate are surprisingly simple, just one hundred gold coins, first served, valid for two months.
There is also an exploration mission issued at the same time as the certificate. It is said that the great magician of the palace, Roger, has a huge and incomplete map of the Central Mountains. All adventurers who enter the Central Mountains have to draw the terrain they pass by. If the map of an adventure team fills the gap in Roger's map, they will receive a reward of one thousand gold coins and the choice to become a member of the official Knights in the Principal of Are.
One hundred gold coins are not a decimal, but most adventurers can afford the money. Although many people are worried about whether there will be any traps behind this, more adventurers are more willing to seize the opportunity in front of them. How can you take risks without any risks? As a result, twenty hunter certificates were snatched up and the adventure team that did not get them regretted that they should not hesitate and missed the opportunity.
The day after the official issuance of the hunter certificate, several teams of anxious adventurers set out. One day earlier, one day earlier, one day earlier, one day later, one day later, the secrets of the elves were discovered. As for how to transport the captured elves out of the Principality of Alay, that was something that only needs to be worried about in the future.
But two days later, even more shocking news came.
There are actually dragons appearing in the central mountain range!
The news was brought back by an adventure team called "Forest Silver Wolf". They entered the Central Mountains very early to explore, when Rogge had not blocked the Central Mountains. They had been in the Central Mountains for nearly a month, but they had nothing to find. Just as they were desperate and ready to return, the dragon appeared.
It was a gray afternoon, and a giant dragon flew over the "Forest Silver Wolf"! Its huge body was more than ten meters long, and its wings spread out to cover the sun! Its dragon power was surprisingly vast, and even the "Forest Silver Wolf" felt the majesty that shocked the soul!
The ‘Forest Silver Wolves’ hide, fearing that the dragon will discover its whereabouts. They will not even imagine the honor of the dragon slayer.
But the dragon's flying posture was very strange, slowly and shaking. Suddenly, a backpack slid down from the dragon's back and fell not far from the "Forest Silver Wolf". The backpack cracked a hole, and it was filled with gold and silver utensils and jewelry! The "Forest Silver Wolf" couldn't believe his good luck. They actually met a giant dragon moving!
The dragon hovered over the forest, looking for its lost treasure. But it flew hard and clumsy. After a few hovers, it still did not find the place where the backpack fell. Finally, it screamed unwillingly and flew towards the depths of the central mountain range.
The wealth in the backpack was so huge that it surprised the "Forest Silver Wolf"! Jewelry and gold and silver themselves accounted for only about half of the value. The exquisite craftsmanship and long-standing era also added huge value to this batch of jewelry. God knows how many years the dragon has been collecting this batch of treasures!
The "Forest Silver Wolf" who suddenly gained a surprise fortune hurriedly left the Central Mountains but was stopped on the blockade. To their surprise, they were not subject to any difficulties, but were told that after the blockade, they would no longer be allowed to enter the Central Mountains without a hunter certificate. In this way, the "Forest Silver Wolf" brought their harvest back to Dresden. They showed some of the trophys, including a quaint purple gold crown.
After hearing the news, Grand Duke Carlos immediately sent someone to buy the crown at a high price.
The suddenly rich "Forest Silver Wolf" was determined to end their adventure career, find a quiet place, and live a rich life. Amid the envious or jealous eyes of countless adventurers, the eight "Forest Silver Wolf" adventurers left Dresden. Now they had too much money, so they paid a lot of money to hire a hundred snow bear knights to protect their safety until they left the Principal of Alay.
With the emergence of the "Forest Silver Wolf", another gossip began to circulate among adventurers. It is said that Roger and his Elf Guard severely injured an ancient dragon not long ago, and now they are asked to search for the terrain of the Central Mountains in order to capture the dragon.
The giant dragon.
No adventurer dares to provoke a giant dragon, but when this dragon carries a large number of treasures, a small group of high-level adventurers will want to try their luck. If this moving dragon is seriously injured, it will be a moving gold mountain!
Martha's brother was as excited as a child these two days! His luck was incredibly good, and he actually ranked a hunter certificate! One hunter certificate could pass ten people, while their adventure team had only seven. So three high-level adventurers temporarily joined their adventure team at the cost of 500 gold coins per person.
Martha was also very excited. The Central Mountains were seducing her young heart. Dragons, adventures, wealth, elves, heroes, these were enough to make any girl crazy. Everything was ready, and tomorrow, Martha and her friends were about to set off!
It was late at night and they came out of the tavern. Everyone felt a little drunk, and even Martha drank several glasses of strong wine.
When passing a dark alley, Martha suddenly felt uneasy. Dozens of masked men in black stood on the roofs and walls on both sides, and more than ten crossbow arrows with cold light aimed at them. Before they could react, sharp arrows flew over like rain!
The shouts of killing came from all sides, and I don't know how many people surrounded them. But Martha could see that these people were also adventurers. She was confused and scared, but still calm. She raised her wand and wanted to use the most skillful fireball technique to save her companions. However, the spell had just chanted two syllables, and was interrupted by a dagger that penetrated into her back.
Before falling down, the last scene that came into Martha's eyes was a hand, holding the hunter certificate in this hand, and the certificate was still dripping blood. It was her brother's blood...
Roger, dressed in a nightgown, was sitting on his comfortable lounge chair, while savoring red wine while gazing at Dresden in the night through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. This ancient city is not peaceful every night now, and there are always shouts of killing, fire or magical flowing flames that cut through the peace of the night.
Another fire lit up in the distance, and I wonder how many adventurers would fall in this battle. Roger calculated proudly, as if he saw the scene of hunter certificates surrounding him, and the adventurers were fighting each other. According to the numbers reported by the Legal Affairs Office, since the issuance of hunter certificates, the number of adventurers has been decreasing almost every day. The adventure teams that received the certificates are trying their best to rush to the blockade line so as not to be intercepted by other adventurers. More adventure teams have moved the battlefield for hunter certificates from Dresden to front of the blockade line.
The dark side of the moon only recognizes certificates but not people. Even if they kill people in front of them, they just pretend that they have not seen anything.
One kilometer outside the blockade line is the default boundary of the Dark Side of the Moon. Entering this line means that you are protected by the Dark Side of the Moon and can successfully cross the Blockade line. Countless battles and killings are taking place outside this line. Even the Snow Bear Knight felt a little reluctant, but the elves on the Dark Side of the Moon faced all this calmly.
Roger looked at the night view and couldn't help but calculate. "When everyone who got the hunter certificate passed the blockade, it's time to issue the second batch of certificates. Well, only ten copies of the second batch will be issued. We can't let the adventurers who stay in Dresden be idle! It seems that the price can also be mentioned, and 500 gold coins should not be a problem."
He drank the wine in his glass and planned how to get more adventurers to get in: "Maybe the second batch of certificates should be issued secretly. Adventurers cannot know which team got the hunter certificate so that they could suspect each other and fight each other. As long as the fight starts, hatred will keep the blood flowing. It is time to add two hundred moons of the dark side killer to the blockade line, and we must dispel all their fantasies of breaking through the blockade line by force. Well, we must put more baits and give them some sweetness.
The wounded dragon that moved the head is not big enough. Well, many people still dare not provoke dragons. An ancient tomb full of wealth? This idea is good, but I don’t know if Feng Yue is willing to lend me some more subordinates. The open-pit sand mine is also good, and there are adventurers ruins. Ah, there are enough baits! They should be able to divert their eyes from the elves. If adventurers want to gain wealth, they can’t afford to provoke the dark side of the moon, so they can only rob the hunter certificate. You kill and grab it! The more people die, the better!"
As soon as Ajiani got out of the bath, she casually put on a nightgown. The overflowing spring guang looked extremely attractive against her pretty face and slender ears.
She came to Roger slowly, kneaded his shoulders with her hands, and chuckled, "Are you thinking about something harmful to others again?"
Roger smiled and said, "Didn't this idea be given to me? Hehe, since we can't stop adventurers, let's make a small hole for them. After thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge, most people will be squeezed down. Can those adventurers who cross the bridge still escape my palms? Haha!"
Roger said as he touched Ajiani's bathrobe and touched her thighs. She let out a low voice and begged for mercy: "Sir, you weren't... just now... just now... I can't stand it anymore! Do I want me to call other sisters in?"
Roger kissed her lips hard and smiled, "You gave me such a good idea, how could I not comfort you well! This is the benefit you deserve!" As he said that, he picked up Ajiani horizontally and walked towards the bedroom.
A Jiani's protest voice kept coming: "Sir! Why did I come up with this idea? I just reposted the ancient wisdom of the elves... This is obviously you...ah!"
Dresden suddenly became a nightmare city for adventurers. In order to compete for the hunter certificate, even during the day, adventurers would have fired from time to time. The second batch of ten hunter certificates were released secretly, and no one knew which adventurer team these ten certificates were sent to. Therefore, the southeast direction of Dresden was closely monitored by adventurers who did not obtain the certificate. Any adventurer team trying to advance to the blockade line will continue to be tested by ambush, assassination and siege.
Originally, visionary people among adventurers had found that the situation was wrong, and the battle between adventurers began to lose control. At first, it was a fight for the certificates, but later, more and more adventurers made enemies, and more revenge for brothers and sisters and friends were gradually increasing. Several high-level adventurers wanted to set up a temporary union to coordinate the allocation of hunter certificates. But suddenly two teams of adventurers returned from the Central Mountains.
They discovered an ancient tomb of the undead. Because the undead inside was too powerful, they were forced to cooperate and successfully broke through the first floor of the tomb. At the entrance of the second floor, the extremely powerful undead instantly took the lives of the two people in the team. The two adventurers teams escaped in a hurry. But the harvest from the first floor is initially estimated to be more than 50,000 gold coins. It is enough for this group of adventurers to retire.
The huge wealth and new adventure location instantly ignited the adventurer's greedy desire. No matter how powerful the undead is, it is much weaker than the ancient dragon. Few people want to touch the dragon's wealth, but many adventurers still have this confidence in plundering an ancient tomb with rich treasures.
According to Roger's plan, adventurers will die first in order to compete for the certificate, and then in the central mountains. However, those who return from adventure will be hunted by the robbers who have harvested from them on their way back to their hometown.
As long as the killing begins, it will be passed down from generation to generation in the form of hatred.
Chapter completed!
