Chapter 56: Snow Rock City and Deville
"Kordak, hurry up, you'll be in Snow Rock City for another hour. Vera turned around and waved excitedly, she was wearing a red coat with fiery red hair, which looked beautiful in the pure white snowfield.
"It's simple, you carry two backpacks and luggage for me to take a look!" Cordak grumbled with a sad face, unlike Vera, who wrapped himself thick and warm, several buckles of his leather armor had been loosened, faintly revealing most of his strong chest, and his arms were not warmed by any clothes, completely exposed to the cold wind of more than ten degrees below zero.
Although the human body will be greatly strengthened under the tempering of the fighting spirit, and it has good resistance to high temperature and cold, low temperature will still cause a large loss of energy, so appropriate warmth measures are still necessary.
And the reason why Kordak is this appearance is completely because of the heat, walking in the snow with two huge backpacks on his back is an out-and-out physical work, so that in this ice and snow, Kordak actually has a feeling of sweating like rain, according to Regner's words, the boss has sweated more than urine these days.
"Okay, well, I know you're tired, I'll carry it. Vera looked at the sweaty Kordak and took the initiative to take her backpack. But the weight of more than a hundred catties on the body really doesn't feel very good.
"Anne is the most comfortable. Vera looked with some envy at the space pocket around Annelot's waist.
The Space Pocket is a kind of space magic equipment that can hold a lot of items without changing its weight and volume.
Annelot's space pocket does not carry a lot of space, only about two cubic meters, but even this kind of lowest-level space pocket with the smallest carrying space can be sold for 3,000 gold coins in the store, which is a luxury that they can't afford to buy in the eyes of mercenaries like them.
"Hey, don't be envious, if it weren't for Anne Lot's help us with some of the burden, we would have carried more things. Kordaq was startled and quickly changed the subject, as he saw that Vera's eyes had changed when she looked at the space pocket, and it was the only one she had seen when she was facing the commodity.
"Huhu, that's a good point, it's all the two of you who share the burden, why do I have to carry all my stuff by myself?" Regna's outfit was as cool as Kordak's. Because of his small stature, his backpack was almost higher than his head, and the huge backpack and thin body felt incongruous no matter how you looked at it.
"Hehe, that's up to you. Cordak patted Regner's shoulder with a lewd look and whispered: "I didn't expect you kid to really have that thief's guts, you dare to peek at these two women taking a bath, you are about to become my boss!"
"Again, I declare that I didn't peek well, I really just went out to scout and came back feeling thirsty and ran to the lake to get a sip or two of water, who would have thought that they were taking a shower there and didn't inform me that they weren't?" Regnar retorted with a serious face.
He was telling the truth, but in retrospect, there was still a feeling of blood in Annelot's smooth back, and if it hadn't been for the scream that followed from Vera, he believed it would have been one of the few perfect images he would have remembered for the rest of his life.
"Hehe, it doesn't matter if Vera believes it or not, the point is that you see whether Anne Lott believes it or not, anyway, she's thrown all your luggage out since then. Kordak said meaningfully.
Regner secretly glanced at Anne Lot, who was walking in front, and Anne Lot, who was wearing a pure white cotton robe, with short ice blue hair and a delicate face, and a beautiful temperament that did not eat the fireworks of the world. Anne Lot's face was a faint pink at this time, and she didn't know if it was because of the low temperature or because she heard the conversation between the two men.
"Why, if you have the ability, tell Anne Lot, and ask her to help you get some. Kordak said with a smirk.
She ...... She's almost full of it, so I can carry it myself without anyone else's help. Regner said hesitantly.
Since that time, Anne Lot's attitude to Regner has always been ignored, and Regner has come over several times to admit his mistake and improve the relationship, but Anne Lot's hard back has been pushed back. So he didn't dare to be bored anymore, but he still showed his kindness to Annelot at the first opportunity when he thought he was at a loss, which caused a lot of eyes from Cordak and Vera.
......
An hour later, Kordaq and the others had arrived at Snow Rock City, the southernmost city of humans in the Eastern Continent.
It is said that Snow Rock Castle was only a small town in the eastern continent a hundred years ago, but due to its proximity to the frozen snow-capped mountains, many adventurers used it as a transit point. Over time, the originally inconspicuous small town has become one of the nine major cities in the human world.
Because of the fact that he was away from home, Kordaq didn't want to go through too much trouble, and wanted to rent four beds in the lobby of the hotel for a few nights.
But Vera said that she didn't want to live with a group of stinky men, so she kept yelling. And although Anne Lot on the side didn't say much, she knew with her ass that such a delicate beautiful girl mage would not want to live with a group of savage and rude warriors.
And Regner also uncharacteristically did not stand on the side of Kordak, and also insisted on the high room.
In the end, Kordaq had no choice but to compromise and lead everyone to find a room. But winter is always the busiest season in Snow Rock City, and finding four rooms is no less difficult than finding a snow hare in the snow from a distance of 500 meters.
In the end, the four of them found only three rooms in an expensive hotel.
"My big feet are already hungry and thirsty!" said Kordak, with a fierce look in his eyes and a hint of hideousness at the corners of his mouth.
"Boss, if you don't wash your feet tonight, I'd rather sleep in the hallway!" Regna's tone was a little tragic, but unusually resolute.
"Hmph, then you can sleep. Cordak did not hesitate, without Regner's support, Kordak would not have to pay an extra ten gold coins for accommodation, so now in his eyes, this kid looks extremely hateful, and naturally he will not "show mercy".
"Okay, okay, this is a nice place, we'll stay here. Don't be afraid, little Lei, if Kordak can't accommodate you, you can come and sleep with your sister. Vera threw an olive branch in time.
"Okay, no problem, I'm not going to go there, boss!" Regna didn't hesitate to choose to apostatize, with a smooth and delicate white leg like Vera to hug, who would be happy to smell Cordak's stinky feet?
"You think it's beautiful!, honestly, live with Lao Tzu!" Cordak said without saying a word, and dragged Regner back to his room.
......
"And we're going the day after tomorrow?" Vera cut off a small piece of rabbit meat and chewed it carefully, the roasted snow rabbit was the hotel's signature dish, but the price of two gold coins each made Cordak think that Vera was chewing her own meat.
"The day after tomorrow, tomorrow we will buy some more necessities, and then set off when everything is ready, after all, this time we have to go deep into the frozen snow mountain, the more prepared the better. Cordak said as he snatched a rabbit leg from Regner and ate it.
"Good evening, everyone, my young master has something I want to talk to you about, I wonder if you can give you a face?" said a man with a long beard as he suddenly walked over and pointed to the center of the hall.
Kordak followed the man's direction, and saw a handsome young man about twenty years old, dressed in an expensive robe, sitting at the table and looking at it. When Vera noticed him, the man smiled what he thought was charming.
"I'm very sorry, we're not interested. Kordak coldly refused.
This kind of thing has happened to him before, although Vera is only average in appearance, but her long fiery red hair and explosive figure can easily arouse a man's desire. According to their experience, ninety percent of the guys who came to strike up a conversation in the tavern were attracted to Vera and wanted to take advantage of it, for which he and Selenos duo were
Got into a lot of fights with others in the tavern.
"Our young master is the son of the president of the Deville Chamber of Commerce, please give me a face. The man frowned and continued.
"I don't know what the Deville Chamber of Commerce is, we're going to continue with dinner now, please don't bother us again. Kordak's face darkened, and he felt that there was another fight to be fought tonight.
"Don't be ignorant. The man lowered his voice and began to emit a surprising aura from his body.
Kordak's heart sank, and the aura emanating from the man's body was stronger than him.
Kordak didn't expect this guy to be so difficult this time, but that didn't mean he would back down. Although Vera never officially admitted anything to Kordak, he had treated her as his own woman a few years ago, and no man would be intimidated at this time. So Kordaq snorted coldly and said, "Get out of here!"
"So are you really planning to be embarrassed?" The man narrowed his eyes slightly, and his slowly rising fighting spirit blew his hair up slightly.
"What's the matter, Cook, don't these friends want to show their faces?" the young man had come here at some point.
Cook hurriedly dispersed his fighting spirit, bowed slightly and said, "Young Master Deville, not only did they refuse your request, but they also used to speak disrespectfully to the Deville Chamber of Commerce. ”
"So you guys look down on our Deville Chamber of Commerce?" Deville frowned a little displeasurely, he was just attracted by Vera's temperament, and wanted to invite them over for a drink or two, but he didn't expect these mercenaries to just be unappreciative, and even made disrespectful remarks.
"What the Deville Chamber of Commerce is, we don't need to know. Annelot's cold voice rang out.
The table of the four of Kordak was against the wall, and the dim candle flame could hardly illuminate the corners of the hall, so neither Cook nor Deville paid much attention to the girl sitting in the darkest corner, and now listening to her, the two of them turned their attention to her.
Deville's eyes lit up when he moved his gaze to Annelot, and just as he was about to say something, Annelot's eyes flashed: "Please leave, we have nothing to talk about." ”
Deville's face turned a little pale, but he quickly calmed down again, smiled reluctantly at Annelot, and said, "In that case, we bothered you, sorry, Cook, let's go." ”
After leaving, Cook asked with some puzzlement, "Young Master, why are you leaving?"
"That blue-haired girl isn't very easy to mess with. We still have things to do, so it's better not to make a fuss. DeVille shook his head.
Cook was a little surprised in his heart, Deville himself was a twelfth-level mage, could it be that the girl was even more terrifying than the young master?
But he had no doubt about Deville's words, this young man was the most dazzling genius in the family, not only did he have the magical talent recognized by Snow Rock City, but he was also wise and decisive, and he was almost a perfect person if he removed the shortcomings such as pride and lust.
Cook has followed Deville for so many years, and since the young master has decided so, there must be a reason for him. So when Deville said to leave, he left without saying a word.
"Deville, the heir of the Deville family, lustful, a genius of water magic, a twelfth-level mage, a member of the Arcane Eyes, a member of the Middle Chamber of Commerce, a ...... of the middle family in Snow Rock City" Anne Lot stared at Deville's back, and a piece of information flashed through her mind.
