Chapter 3: The Frontier
If the Empire is to contend with dangerous beasts that often invade the country near the frontier, it is important to prepare weapons in advance, and if you see a merchant like Erhes who can bring rare minerals, he will definitely welcome it to enter the country and sell it.
"Please stretch out your hand, we are going to implant a 'mark' on your arm, which is a proof that you can enter the customs, and at the same time, this mark can also detect the identity given to you by the empire when you enter the customs. In your case, the identity of the entry is a merchant, and the merchant is different from the ordinary traveler, who can enter the area related to the industry, and enter the area, and can have more purchasing power than the ordinary tourist. If a merchant is clever enough, he can buy good things at a low price, and then resell them to ordinary travelers to make a profit on the price difference. ”
"Thank you for the explanation, I'll just study the details. ”
"Well, let's go up and register our identities as well. ”
The checkpoints at the Imperial Pass are usually checked by two checkpoints, and the identification and other formalities are also carried out at this time, while the other checkpoints are on standby nearby, guarding the entry team to avoid illegal things such as smuggling. Some of those guards will have "hounds" around them, and those are ghost wolves, which have been tamed by humans and obey the orders of humans. The ghost wolf is quite large, and its body can reach the height of an average adult when it stands upright. They are extremely aggressive, good at team combat, and combined with their stealth advantage, they can also be quite threatening against people who break the rules and try to resist arrest, or large beasts.
There are quite a lot of people in the queue to enter the customs right now. In terms of numbers, there are not as many "trading cities" as those on the periphery of the empire, but they are still quite impressive. These people usually come to the empire for the sake of the empire's beasts. The Empire is a world-famous country that sells improved beasts, and in such a special era, this product is quite popular, and the types of beasts produced in the states of the empire vary. The purpose of this is to hope that each state can allow the circulation of resources through trade and other means, and the empire will establish its own characteristics in each state, so that the masses can attract foreigners in need to visit the place to do business because of the uniqueness of the state.
The trading cities on the southeastern frontier of the empire are known for their variety of goods, and this sword state is famous for selling beasts used as weapons.
Erheth's companions, Lightning and the Relict Lizard, played the role of Erhes's merchant assistant when they entered the Sword State. Their appearance is easy to attract attention in the human world, but because this is in the inland region where there are many mews and beasts, the masses are not surprised. But Erhes still wants his friends to keep a low profile, so he asks them to wear big shawls and hats, so as not to make themselves different and expose themselves too much in front of the crowd.
Erhers motioned for her companions to follow the sentry's instructions to register their identities, reminding them that the soldiers were harmless and did not need to be on guard. Those soldiers would inject them with the Beast, a Beast called the ID Beast. Lightning may not know what it is, but the Relic Lizard should have knowledge of that, because the original owner of its body was originally a resident of the Empire, and the Relic Lizard also acquired that knowledge when he acquired his body.
