Chapter 0281: Arrive at the Royal Capital

I guess no one would have thought that the terrifying necromancer would be killed so easily.

Renard nodded tiredly, a very reluctant smile on his face, he now knew that it was necessary to consume his mental power to release the scroll.

When the crowd heard the news of the necromancer's killing, they all cheered, and the golems that had lost the necromancer's control fell to the ground one after another, turning into filthy black water.

However, there was no optimistic expression on Renard's face, although the necromancer was dead, the Lich King, who was the initiator, must have escaped.

He couldn't help but wonder if he would offend some evil and powerful being because of this.

Because there were still many follow-up things to deal with, Count Edward didn't have time to accompany Lei Ye and the others, so after two days of repair, everyone said goodbye and continued to march towards the royal capital.

The rest of the trip went very smoothly, although there were occasional bandits who were not long-sighted to harass, but it was harmless, and all of them were easily resolved, which can be regarded as contributing to the maintenance of law and order in the kingdom.

However, as he got closer and closer to the royal capital, Renard's heart couldn't help but feel worried, and he was naturally not worried about the task of this trip, but wondered: Does Princess Sylvia remember me?

Three days later, they left the confines of Kale County and entered the province of Roseflower, which was now less than eighty kilometers away from the royal capital.

The Rose Province is worthy of being the richest province in the Arthurian Kingdom, the roads are very neat and spacious, and they can already catch up with the provincial roads of the previous life, and the carriage will hardly feel too much bumps when galloping on it,

Everyone was finally able to ride their horses and unleash their enthusiasm to the fullest.

In the evening, Renard arrived at the destination of his trip, King Arthur's capital.

The name of King Arthur's capital is very simple, it is called Arthur's City.

Arthur's City was the largest and most prosperous city in Arthur's kingdom, it was located at the confluence of two rivers, and the suddenly soothing river brought countless freight ships and caravans, as well as abundant products.

The city is home to more than 300,000 residents, or 400,000 if you count the business travelers.

Standing on the bank of the sparkling moat, Arthur's City exudes an inexplicable sense of sacredness at sunset, with tall and strong walls and towering buildings, all full of dreamlike colors.

Unlike the delicate Port of Montreal, it gives Renard the purest spiritual enjoyment, just like when he first saw Stormwind when he first played World of Warcraft.

The main road to Arthur's City is full of traffic and bustling.

There were not only large caravans driving horse-drawn carriages, but also small merchants with porters, and small traders selling directly along the way, and the nobles near the royal capital also dragged their families here to buy what they needed.

Most of the nobles rode in magnificent carriages, because the security near the royal capital was very good, so except for the old servants who drove the carriages, they did not even need to bring guards, of course, it may also be inseparable from their poor lives.

Those who are slightly inferior to the family will ride horses by themselves, and when they meet nobles riding in exquisite carriages, they will try to pretend to be proud, as if they disdain to be in the company of this soft-footed shrimp.

Of course, there were also small aristocrats who were in dire straits, who had no money to buy horses and carriages, and could not even afford ox carts, so they could only walk, occasionally stopping to comment on the surrounding scenery, as if they had come for a walk.

Renard rode along the main road, his posture of hugging forward and back attracted the attention of many people, and the nobles who could travel with escorts must be nobles with real power.

Merchants and hawkers avoided each other, and the little nobles, although they were disdainful, also honestly let go to the side of the road.

The nobles who live in the royal capital, more than ninety percent are empty nobles who do not have fiefs, and their families take advantage of hundreds of acres of land at most, and those who have a little family background may be able to buy a few shops in the royal capital and live by collecting rent, so they dare not argue with the real power nobles at all.

Renard and the others entered King Arthur's capital smoothly in this way, and the city guard at the city gate habitually ignored everyone, and he was not greedy enough to collect the city tax from the nobles with real power.

Passing through the dark doorway, the bustling scene of Arthur's City comes into view.

The city is buzzing with people, peddlers and pawns, and horse-drawn carriages.

The streets are wide and tidy, and the houses are lined up along the wide streets, 80 percent of which are Gothic buildings, as if to tell the story of the city's long history.

Walking through the streets of the city, Renard suddenly felt like he was in medieval Paris, France.

Oroque's face was excited, and he said in a long-lost tone: "Finally home, I haven't been back here for five or six years, it's still the same, nothing has changed." ”

Renard looked at the fat man and asked, "Are you ready to go home?"

Oloch thought for a while, and then nodded: "When the goods are disposed of, I have also earned enough capital, and I will not run the business myself in the future, buy a few shops and be the boss myself, and then take a beautiful rich lady and give birth to a few big fat sons." ”

Perhaps thinking of the better life in the future, a lewd smile slowly appeared on the fat man's face.

Renard was a little speechless, then sighed and said, "Then let's separate." ”

Oloch looked at him in surprise, "Aren't you going to sit at my house?"

Renard shook his head: "I have other more important things to do, and if you plan to live in the royal capital permanently, don't reveal your relationship with me, at least not too closely." ”

The fat man had a blank look on his face: "Why?"

Lei Ye shrugged his shoulders: "Because I may have irreconcilable contradictions with His Majesty the wise and great King next." ”

The blankness on O'Roe's face suddenly turned into surprise, and he stumbled and repeated the question again: "Why?"

Renard took a deep breath, looked at the sky, and said, "Because the sky is about to change." ”

Oloke looked up at the sky, he really didn't understand what Lei Ye was alluding to.

Renard was very torn in his heart, and although he didn't want to have any conflicts with the king, he hated the feeling of being used and abandoned even more.

As soon as the demon appeared, King Ferdinand was not thinking about how to join forces with the lords to fight the demon, but how to take advantage of this demon disaster to obtain huge benefits, and even he, the hero who discovered the demon, became an outcast.

Such a king is a hero, but not a master.

If it doesn't involve his own interests and safety, Renard is actually very willing to make friends with such people.

Because the two have very similar characteristics in their way of doing things, that is, they take the lead in considering their own interests when encountering anything.

This is different from selfishness, because they will never be stingy in helping others when it comes to their own interests.

However, they were destined to be rivals, after all, Ferdinand's purpose was to destroy the demons and the southern nobles at the same time.

Unfortunately, Renard is also a target to be eliminated.
