297 It’s better to be sad than to be hurt
"Mountain?"
Wutong was stunned for a moment and said in confusion: "Are there no players with mounts in Fairhaven City?"
"Of course there are players with mounts! Players who work in various knights can get a mount in the organization of their Knights, but they are not very good-grade. Wild knights who don't want to join the Knights will of course have no mounts. If you want to spend money to buy or catch them yourself."
July Liuhuo wiped his sweat and muttered, "But the problem is that I have spent money to buy it, and I have to learn riding skills before I can ride it, otherwise I will be unable to get along with my own eggs. If I catch it myself, I not only have to learn riding, but also to learn domestication, and after learning domestication, I also have to buy tools to grab mounts... Can that wild knight afford it at this stage? Not to mention being a hard-working person like us."
As he said that, he pointed silently ais: "Old A originally planned to be a Paladin, but when he went to inquire, raising a knight was more expensive than raising ten warriors. In order to make money, he first took the mage he thought he could make money, and the result..."
Wutong sweated for a while and was about to comfort the poor Ais, but suddenly realized that Ais's eyes seemed to have been empty and focal-free from the beginning. He strangely reached out and shook his hand in front of him, but he didn't react!?
"Uh, by the way, Lao A, you just took a bite and made it into a mushy way. How does it smell like it is swollen? It smells very fragrant?" Qiu Yue Liuhuo asked curiously.
Ais's European-style man's handsome face twitched, and his deep facial features seemed deeper and deeper. His cheeks twitched, as if he had been brought up by July Liuhuo. A hint of sadness appeared in his eyes. He glanced at the little loli not far away. After his lips twitched, he gently spit out two weak words: "It means you will die if you eat."
The sycamore is sweating next to it!
The little loli was also very depressed. When she was lifted by July Liuhuo, she immediately let out a "wow~" sound, and used two small fists to pound her eyes and burst into tears: "Xiaoxiao's stove! Wuwu~ Xiaoxiao's stove is no fun~! The pot is no fun! Wow!"
When they mentioned this, Wutong felt a pain in pain. At least it was only 500 gold coins to buy that set of wine props, so they lost it. This time they suffered heavy losses.
"Okay OK! Xiaoxiao won't cry! Brother will buy it for you again... No! My brother will take Xiaoxiao to snatch the stove and pot from those bad guys! OK?"
Wutong quickly coaxed the little loli and said with a smile and sobbing: "Really?"
"real!"
The little loli sucked her nose and waved her fist angrily: "Xiaoxiao wants to knock those big bad silver away!"
"Drive..."
Everyone remembered the wanderer who was knocked away before, and they felt chills together and were beaten away by a big lollipop with a smile. It was definitely not a wonderful thing.
The exhausted people returned to Fairhaven City with heavy steps, and first went to the Adventure Guild to hand over a large number of fragmented hunting tasks. Then they sent people to summon the soldiers who were resurrected in the major temples and were still in the weak stage.
Originally, they had a group of captives who could be taken back. If they could be brought back, they could also be sent to the slave market to sell them to the slave traders for some pocket money. Unfortunately, when they ran away, the unlucky captives of captives still could not escape and died. They swept through the thick trunks by the barbarians, and half of them died. The remaining half were also trampled by them, and they all burst like fish bubbles...
For the barbarian who is an average height of 2.23 meters, it is not too difficult to stomp a dog-headed man who is less than one meter tall as a fish bubble. What Wutong feels sorry for is not the dog-headed slave, but the shackles of 15 gold coins.
After the victims who were shaking while walking came to meet up, Wutong saw that the players in the apprentice service were left on the group, and her teeth were itchy. If we say that the most heavy losses were probably his employer. Although the more than 20 people who died had lost some equipment, some of them were enchanted by the players and applied valuable equipment "soul energy binding", they still reborn with them.
However, the heavy wooden shields, short bows and battle axes distributed to these meat shields cannon fodders were all lost. More than twenty sets, how much does it cost!?
Now, it was not only the little loli's hatred for snatching the furnace, but also Wutong's hatred for losing money. Wutong felt that he was irreconcilable with those savage robbers, and sooner or later he would go to seek revenge on them.
As soon as he walked out of the Adventurers Guild, Wutong suddenly discovered that they were surrounded!
"Dear Master, Lord Lange, the leader of our "Wild Jackal", would like to invite you to our stronghold for dinner, hoping you can enjoy the scenery." An NPC wanderer wearing a full set of black light leather armor bent down slightly at Wutong with a smile.
Wutong was stunned, the NPC wanderer looked for him? What does it mean?
"Boss, don't go! They are the NPC violent gang nearby..." A warrior who was familiar with the surrounding environment of Mercenary Street and the Adventure Guild lowered his voice to remind Wutong.
NPC's violent gang? In other words, are these guys black in NPC?
Wutong sweated for a while, looked at the other party in confusion, and found that this guy was not a pure [wanderer], but a branch of the [wanderer] profession: [thief]!
[Thieves], [assassin], [killer], [scout]... etc., these are sub-branches under the profession of [wanderers], but they are collectively called [wanderers] and belong to different types of [wanderers].
It is a bit difficult to explain the career system clearly. If Wutong had not seen an introduction to career distinction in a book, she would probably not be able to distinguish the identity of the thief in front of her through the details.
However, he was limited to seeing that the other party was a thief and could not tell which kind of thief the other party was. According to speculation, this regional small gang would not have any too advanced branches. This guy is a [thief]!
Facing a thief who knows the [stealing technique] and can turn your things into his things without realizing it, Wutong vigilantly improves his perception to prevent something on his body from disappearing by accident. She frowned and looked at him and said, "I don't know you, and I have no interest in having supper with your leader. Stay away from me!"
"No, no, Master, you don't seem to understand what I mean!"
The thief laughed in a lewd way: "I am not asking for your opinion, but informing you of the wishes of our leader Lord Lange."
As he said that, a group of big-sleeved and round-waisted guys stood up from the crowd around them, including players and indigenous people, and the players also knew each other... The wanderer leader and his men who were knocked away by Xiaoxiao before seemed to have not given up. They were originally just for revenge, but now, it is probably for the things in Wutong's backpack. This is the side effect of "showing off wealth".
At present, players do not have the ability to establish their own officially recognized organizations, but it does not prevent them from joining the indigenous people, that is, the organizations established by NPCs. However, this does not prevent them from joining the indigenous people's organizations to obtain identity and asylum.
However, with the current level of players, there are not many powerful Aboriginal organizations that will recruit them. At most, they will join some small groups with no more than 50 members of the Aboriginal.
"Do you want to do something with us here?"
The players were not worried about it, Wutong glanced at the indigenous people, all of whom were big and round waists... Among them, there were some orcs, these green-faced and fanged guys, and their intelligence were not even smarter than the savages who robbed them before.
Rather than saying that these orcs are humans, they are human-shaped beasts. With their IQ, they can only proudly say that they are much smarter than their relatives orcs, at least they know how to speak the common terms of humans.
Perhaps the players and adventurers around discovered the confrontation between the two gangs, once again showed their gossip nature, quickly gathered, began to watch, and glanced at the soy sauce crowds who were surrounded by water. Wutong sweated for a while. Now, even if they wanted to run, they seemed to be unable to escape.
"Master, I don't think there is anything wrong with you and your minions here, but that's not my intention!"
The thief showed a sarcastic smile that made people want to hit him: "Don't you think that at such a close distance, it is not so beneficial to you and your mage friends? Or do you think that if you delay time, there will be law enforcement officers to protect the rights of your nobles? In just one second, just one second, I can open many bleeding holes on you. If you are confident in your spell casting speed, you might as well try to reject my invitation."
His gloomy triangular eyes swept the two little lolittle beside Wutong and sneered: "As a gentleman, I don't want to show such a rude side in front of two beautiful ladies."
This guy seemed to have told a cold joke that only the indigenous people understood. Many of his subordinates and the indigenous people watching around him laughed.
Wutong's expression began to cool down when he threatened this guy. To be honest, he was in a very bad mood now. This was quite rare for him with a gentle personality. The members of the Canghai Branch who were hiding behind these aboriginals made him very unhappy. These guys were like boogers, stuck to their fingers, and could not be moved away no matter how hard they were.
"There are no law enforcement officers in the Boss, Mercenary Street, and most areas of Fairhaven Outside City..."
It was still the warrior who carefully reminded his boss. He realized that the boss did not seem to be very familiar with the rules of Fairhaven City. Not only him, but also the other mages did not seem to know very well.
"He's right."
The female priest Ling Yue Shuangxue, holding the metal scepter in her hand, stood beside Wutong: "Ferhaven City is not as orderly as you think. The law is limited to the inner city of Antian. Therefore, in the outer city of Ferhaven, it is either a slum area with no laws at all, or a civilian area that no one cares about as long as it does not commit crimes on the main passage, and it is an 'autonomous area' near Mercenary Street."
"autonomous region?"
Wutong turned her head curiously and looked at the beautiful side face of the beautiful female priest who was a little violent.
"The large guild area where the Mercenary Guild and Adventure Guild is not under the jurisdiction of Fairhaven City. As long as there is no large-scale rebellion, there will be no law enforcement officers. Here, the Mercenary Guild and other major guilds are responsible for maintaining order. Here, they have a saying, "A problem that can be solved with fists is not a problem. As long as you do not destroy the surrounding shops and some public facilities, and do not cause chaos, no one will punish you even if you kill the other party."
翎月霜雪微微兴奋的轻舔了一下丰润的红唇,很认真的询问道:“我们要揍他们么?”
Wutong Han nodded: "So OK, it seems I have to go with them."
He turned his head and said to the mages and soldiers behind him, "You all stay here, I'll go with them."
Everyone was stunned, especially the four barrier warriors. Before the employer disbanded them, their responsibilities must be fulfilled. So the barrier warrior in the lead was about to object, but Wutong said toughly: "This is an order, warrior! I have something to do, and I am just about to talk to the leader of this gentleman... Just protect this little girl."
Wutong's tone made everyone stunned, because Wutong, who always spoke very gently and friendly, had some dangerous aura in his tone, which made them involuntarily obey Wutong's orders.
"Very good, please, Master, please bring your precious backpack with you!" Seeing that the threat was effective, the thief smiled proudly and bowed slightly, "Gentlemanly": "Please come with me, go here."
Feeling Xiaoxiao beside him gently pulling his robe, Wutong lowered her head and smiled: "Be good, be with her sisters, I'll be back soon."
As he said that, he handed Xiaoxiao's little hand to Ling Yue Shuangxue's hand, and was surrounded by a group of orc thugs and walked towards an alley on the mercenary street. The leader of the wanderer from Canghai Branch followed with his subordinates with a wicked smile.
The mages looked at each other. After Wutong left, everyone couldn't help but look at the July Liuhuo, who was the host of the dormitory building No. 44, which made him feel helpless and scratched the back of his head. He said with a dazed glance: "Why don't we follow?"
"I think we should ask for help from the head of the Mercenary Guild, Mr. Taylor!"
Ling Yue Shuangxue shook her head and said, "After all, this has involved the NPC gang, not just our players' business. As a partner of "The No. 44 Secret Corps", the Mercenary Guild is obliged to protect the safety of its partners?"
Even though that's what it means, everyone knows how could a behemoth like the Mercenary Guild pay too much attention to a small player group?
However, just as they were hesitating, in the direction where Wutong and the others left, a violent explosion suddenly came from somewhere in the alley, followed by a cloud of dust that filled the building when it collapsed.
Under the cover of the dust cloud, a trembling blood light surged into the sky, and a viscous and strong aura of evil swept across the sky in an instant. The people on the entire Mercenary Street even heard a terrifying evil laughter in a sense of almost suffocating oppression. It seemed that something was tearing open the space and crawling out from a mysterious level!!!
This terrible feeling came and went quickly. As the sudden shutter made people think that they had just had hallucinations, but the mushroom-shaped smoke rising deep in the alley was still spreading!
After July Liuhuo and the others looked at each other, they suddenly ran away together and ran away!
After being stunned, a large number of players were also screaming excitedly, and then they went into the alley, trying to follow up to see what was going on and make such a big noise. However, faster than them, the major guilds in the guild area quickly rushed out of groups of figures that could make whistling sounds when they ran, and passed the player group almost like flying eaves and walls, and rushed to the place first.
However, they were not the first to arrive at the scene, because at the end of the alley, where the smoke and clouds rose, there were ripples in the space, and one mage after another appeared. With their waves, an invisible wall stunted the surroundings, and even a [dark technique] formed a dark and dull black curtain, covering the surroundings, so that no one could see what was happening inside.
July Liuhuo and the others looked at each other, and couldn't help but sweat as if they were raining. It seemed to be getting bigger now!?
......
Wutong followed the thieves to the so-called "Jackal of the Wild", and was surrounded by two tall orcs holding him, as if to prevent him from running away or doing something. Behind these orc thugs were the players of Canghai Branch. They blocked the alley tightly. Even if Wutong regrets it now and wants to run away, she can't get out of the cracks.
The stronghold of "The Jackal of the Wild" is just an inconspicuous low and dilapidated building. A small team like them with less than 50 main personnel cannot have a very gorgeous stronghold. However, it is already quite powerful to own such a property in the city of Fairhaven, where every inch of land is valuable. After all, an organization cannot have only one stronghold, and the rabbit knows three caves.
He ignored the crowds gathered outside the stronghold, either sitting on the ground or standing against the wall, smiling maliciously, and staring at his members of the "Wild Jackal" with timid eyes. Wutong stepped into the hut.
In the dark room, a man was hiding in the darkness. He looked at Wutong who was walking in with a flickering eyes and smiled proudly: "Dear Master, I heard that you have done something very cruel to our members of "The Jackal of the Wild". Maybe I should claim some compensation from you to make up for the children's losses? You must know that although you have a noble status, this identity is not enough to make you do whatever you want in Fairhaven City. If you do not apologize and comfort the children's injured young hearts, they will be sad..."
"Sad? Yes! Sadness is better than hurting the body."
Wutong nodded: "And...not only will they be unhappy, but I am also very angry!"
