42. Rescue the caravan
The three of them sat on the beast cart, Mo Fei drove the beast cart leisurely, and the three of them enjoyed the scenery along the way. When it was almost dark, I finally saw a small city in front of me.
"Brother, is this a city in your territory?"
"Of course it is, we haven't been long to get to this place, it must be a city in my territory, let's go in for one night, and then we'll be on our way tomorrow. ”
"Okay. "Okay. Vivien and Eileen replied in unison.
The three of them were still sitting in the car, and when they entered the city, the guards guarding the door did not recognize the emblem on the chest of Mo Fei and the others, and interrogated Mo Fei and the others for a long time. It wasn't until Mo Fei casually cast a buff spell that he was able to prove his identity as a mage and was allowed to enter the city. It seems that what Mo Fei said to the officials of those territories that day had an effect, and the checks of these guards were obviously much stricter.
Although the streets are still the same size, the city is noticeably cleaner and tidier. After finding a hotel and settling in, Murphy took Vivien and Irene around the town.
"I heard that our small city is going to be expanded, and my uncle is working in the city guards, and when they were transferred to the city guard mansion to do things, they heard those adults discussing!"
"Really, what did they say?"
"I heard those adults say that next year our small city will be doubled, and now this city will become an inner city by then, and the wall of the outer city will be built more than ten meters high!"
"So tall?"
"Yes, I heard from those lords, it was the lord's request. ”
............
The three of them came all the way, and all they heard were these discussions. It seems that those officials are starting to have ideas, and they used to just think of ways to make money, and they didn't know that they could get more money after they built up and expanded the place.
"It seems that you have a talent for governing the territory, and now the officials of these cities are so obedient to your orders. Vivien complimented.
"Now they are still afraid of the threat of force in the City of Death, and they are afraid that if they don't do their best, I will trouble them. It would be nice if one day they didn't need to be supervised, but spontaneously made suggestions for the construction of the city. Mo Fei shook his head and said.
However, Mo Fei was already very satisfied with this effect, and the three of them walked around the small town for a long time, and it was getting dark. The three of them returned to the hotel, asked the boss for some food and drink, and sat down in the corner.
"Brother, let's go tomorrow! it's too small to have much fun. ”
"What do you think is fun?"
"Let's go to the Wyvern Empire, there should be fun there, the people over there are very easy to get along with, and their warriors are all riding Wyverns, I really want to see it." ”
"Well, let's go to the Imperial Capital first, your sister Vivien hasn't been back to see her parents for a long time. Let's go home with you, Sister Vivien. Then go to the Wyvern Empire to meet the dragon knights. "For Vivien, Murphy has always felt indebted to her. For her own sake, Vivien chose to leave her father and queen mother. Accompany yourself to the distant city of the dead. So this time, Mo Fei decided to accompany Vivien on a trip.
"Wow, wow, wow! Last time I was caught by the hateful slave owner, I haven't even visited Longyan City properly!"
After making a decision, Mo Fei was not in a hurry to see the cities in his territory now. After they have built it with their hearts, they should look at it for themselves, and it should be another scene.
To Mo Fei's surprise, less than a month after he left. The leader of the caravan came to the city of death.
"What can you tell him, he is our vice-lord. The guard who had come in with the leader of the caravan to find Elder Auf said to him.
"That's right. The leader of the horse gang didn't even bother to take a sip of water, and said: "I know that what I did was not in accordance with the rules of the city lord, so I didn't dare to come to the city lord for help before, but now they have arrested my wife, two sons and a daughter, I have no choice but to come to the city lord for help." ”
"Speak slowly, we will definitely help you if we can. When Elder Auf heard that his wife and children had been arrested, his heart was filled with anger. What can't you do? For other people's wives and children, this matter is solved.
"That's right. After breathing a sigh of relief, the leader of the caravan said: "Not long ago, our caravan received a commission from a merchant to help him transport a batch of goods to Fedok City, and he gave us 500,000 gold coins for freight, and the only requirement is to safely transport the goods to Fedok City. I promised him, but when the wagon passed by Prince Gree's domain to rest, our men were knocked unconscious, and in one night all the goods were gone. I went to the owner and told him about it. apologized to him and promised to pay him double the price according to the rules, but he ......"
"What did he say?" asked Elder Auf.
"He said that there were ten high-grade fire-type demon cores in it, worth 60 million, and he asked me to pay him 120 million for the goods. ”
"Did he say he had these cores in it?"
"No, he just said it was a batch of spices. ”
"Then what happened, how did they take your wife and children?"
"Of course, I did not agree to their unreasonable demands, but only promised to compensate them for the price of a cart of spices. But they didn't agree, and they cursed, so I had them kicked out, and a few days later, when I went out of town to count the goods, they attacked my house and ......"
Speaking of this, the leader of the horse gang couldn't help crying, "I led people to find them and let them go, they not only laughed at me, but they couldn't even protect my wife and children, and injured all the people I took with me." They later sent someone to tell me that they would transfer my horse gang to them if they had no money to pay, and they released my wife and children. I found out they were coming for my caravan. ”
"I know, you go back first, and tomorrow, I can tell you how to do it. "When Elder Auf heard this, he knew what was going on, and there were still people using this trick in these years.
"Then please ask the deputy city lord to help, and in the future, if you can use our horse gang, you can ask for it. ”
Seeing off the sad leader of the caravan, Kane said, "Elder, if you want to use me, just say what you want." ”
Kane was also on the side just now, and he was also angry after hearing it.
"That's it, let's send a night killer to check first, it's best to save people, but at least find out who they are, dare to come to our territory to make trouble, we must not let them go. The city lord is not here, so let's not cool the hearts of these people who have just taken refuge in us. “
"The Night Killer is there in that city, just inform them. How could they not know about such a big movement of these people?"
As soon as Kane finished speaking, he saw the guard walk in with an elf.
Elder Auf recognized the elf as one of the leaders of the assassination team, and hurriedly said to the guards, "You're out on your way." ”
"I've seen the Deputy City Lord. ”
"You're welcome, are you here for something important?" The original assassination team scattered in various towns and cities of the empire stayed in the local area after completing the task of assassinating the slave owner, engaged in underground intelligence work, and could not directly contact the main city without urgency. The person in charge of the original assassination team ran back in person, so there should be something urgent.
"That's right, Lord Deputy City Lord, that matter is all under our control, Lord Vice City Lord don't worry. Our strength is too small and there are too many people on the other side, we can't save people. I sent my brothers in the group to keep an eye on them, and we knew exactly where they were kept. ”
"Great, why don't you make such a big move and don't reciprocate. Elder Auf realized Mo Fei's intention in not letting them return to the city after they assassinated the slave master, but hiding them on the spot.
"How many of them are there?" Kane asked.
"Earlier, they dressed up as merchants, and only four people came, but since the other day, there have been about 300 people gathered around them, in a large village in the west of the city, and people are also locked inside. ”
"Kane ......"
"I'll just take three hundred cavalry, and besides, go to the Elven Queen, and ask her to give a few people and let the captain take them to save people, and then we can do it. ”
"Are all our old people back? Won't you just call them?" said the elven team leader.
"That's your queen, and the future mother of our city lord, although it was originally our people, but now Her Majesty is in charge, so I have to ask her no matter what. Auf laughed.
At that moment, ten elven masters came from the elven queen, and the elven team leader first led them to rescue people at night, and then Kane went to level them.
After training, all the warriors of the City of Death were accustomed to night fighting, and in order not to let the opponent escape this time, Kane transferred two hundred more knights before leaving.
