Chapter 450: The Warrior on the Human Head Tower

Chapter 450 The Warrior on the Human Head Tower

The sunshine of an April day is not as hot as an August day, nor is it as soft and sunny as the beginning of January, and such good weather always makes people feel happy.

It's a pity that it can only be an April day in the past, but now as long as you look up and see the hole in the sky, many people always feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts, and it seems that even the sunshine that brought light and warmth to the world in the past has been stained with a hint of golden green - exactly the same color as the light and mist lingering on the edge of the giant hole in the sky!

However, the citizens of the Holy City of Lyra do not have this kind of sorrow, the Black Tide has just ended, and now the territory is moving towards prosperity step by step under the leadership of the Black Tide Terminator, Viscount Black Wind! Living under the protection of such a heroic lord, they feel honored and reassured!

"It's a nice day!" said Customer A to Customer B at the Kuroshio no Tavern.

The Kuroshio Relic Tavern is located in the southwest corner of the Eagle Claw District of Tianqin Holy City, some distance from the most prosperous Tianqin Avenue, which is already a relatively remote corner. In fact, not long after the Kuroshio Relic was in business, the owner of the tavern, Lady Emma, was said to have been rescued by the Lyra Patrol during the Kuroshio, and after the Kuroshio ended, Emma settled in the Holy City of Lyra, and took over the property and opened the tavern. In honor of Kuroshio, Emma named the tavern the Kuroshio Relic, which also means to express her gratitude for surviving Kuroshio.

The name Kuroshio Relic seems to resonate with others, so although Kuroshio Relic has only been open for a long time, its business is really good. Of course, according to some gossip, a considerable part of this is due to the beauty of the female boss, Lady Emma, and even a down-and-out troubadour even listed Lady Emma as one of the top ten beauties in the holy city of Lyra in his latest work!

Although the book is called a guide, it is actually more accurate to describe it as a "pickle girl guide", and most of the content in it is a description of a series of beauties listed in the book, among which the top ten most eye-catching beauties include Viscountess Mavis, former Queen Davies of Abidjan, sheriff Marguerite, tax collector Shalang, captain of the Lyra Patrol Bonnie, Emma, the owner of the Kuroshio Relic Tavern, and four others.

However, because the book involves dignitaries such as the Viscountess Mavis and the former Queen Davies of Abidjan, the portrayal is very pale and profane, and it does not contain any blasphemous words, which shows that the bard named Elsie is still quite clever, otherwise it would not only be his work that would have been a river crab, but he himself would have been imprisoned, or beaten to death by the angry citizens of the Holy City of Lyra!

Of course, it is also possible that the troubadour Elsie never met the esteemed ladies of Mavis and Davis at all.

However, in the part about the tavern hostess, Mrs. Emma, Elsie can be said to portray Emma vividly, although there are no erotic words, but it makes a sexy, beautiful, celibate, and charming young woman jump on the page!

It is also because of the book that the Kuroshio Relic Tavern and the female proprietor Lady Emma became famous, and even a book was a hit, making the originally down-and-out bard Elsie famous, which was not expected by both parties! It is said that now Elsie has successfully escaped the embarrassing situation of not having enough to eat, and even plans to buy a property in the Holy City of Lyra, and settle down in this beautiful city from now on!

However, because of the Kuroshio, many people realize that the originally beautiful and peaceful countryside or small city will be the first place to suffer in the event of an emergency such as the Kuroshio army!

This idea soon triggered a series of chain reactions, the most obvious of which was that the price of houses in all cities in the Dawn Valley was rising, and even some areas had risen to an unbelievable price!

However, in this housing price storm, the lords of various countries who have benefited the most are undoubtedly the lords of various countries - although the owners of the houses in the city have the right to live, the land still belongs to the lords after all!

According to the gossip that accompanied the caravans and troubadours from all over the world, some lords even forcibly withdrew the deeds of some of the landlords under some false pretenses, and then, under the deliberate control, the house prices in those parts of the country rose significantly more than in other areas!

But regardless of other regions, this did not happen in the Holy City of Lyra, or even in the entire Starfog Valley - as early as the beginning of discovering that housing prices were quietly rising, the commercial officer Owen reported these situations to Leqi, and then after discussions with the tax officer Shalang, the administrator Akiwin and others, a series of decrees were soon issued.

These laws and regulations include the regulation of housing prices, real estate transactions, and so on, to control housing prices within a reasonable range, and to throw those unscrupulous businessmen who maliciously raise housing prices into the prison of the Holy City of Tianqin! However, there are also many strict regulations on the purchase of new real estate, so as to avoid the influx of too many foreign population, which will then have an adverse impact on the security and humanities of the territory.

These decrees eventually won the praise of many citizens, who did not get the same increase in intangible assets as they did in other places, but unless they had to move out of the Holy City of Lyra, the price of housing did not make much difference to them. As for moving from the Holy City of Lyra to another region, most of the people in the city had no idea of doing so!

"It's a rare good weather!" customer B chimed in.

"The weather is good, but on the way from home just now, I saw a lot of unfamiliar faces! I even tripped over a lazy man when I saw a ghost!" At this time, customer C, who had just sat down, grabbed the cold mead and poured it, and complained with a complaining face.

"It's not normal to have unfamiliar faces, since the end of the Kuroshio, many people have poured into the city almost every day! If it weren't for the Viscount's timely countermeasures, I estimate that even my family's old attic, which has been passed down for four generations, would have been forcibly demolished by those black-hearted chambers of commerce!" Hearing this, Customer A said disapprerovingly. Customer B also nodded slightly, obviously thinking that Customer C was making a bit of a fuss.

"You know what a fart!" seemed to be in a hurry, and customer C poured three glasses of cold mead in a row before he breathed a sigh of relief.

Customer C's rudeness made Customer A, who was meticulous about taking care of his body, subconsciously frown, but he and Customer C had also known each other for many years, although he really couldn't get used to the other party's rudeness, but over the years, he had also learned to be tolerant.

And customer C is obviously the kind of nervous, but cheerful and free type, he also knows that customer A is a little picky about the words and deeds of others, remembering the sentence that he unconsciously exploded just now, he immediately slapped his head and said: "Oh, sorry, I was not careful, I burst into foul language!"

Customer C is undoubtedly very proud in terms of making friends, and judging from the clothes of the three people, it is indeed that Customer C is more gorgeous.

"That's decided!" Customer B immediately clapped his hands and said, he would never refuse such a good thing! As for Customer A, although he did not say anything, his expression was much more relaxed, and he obviously acquiesced to Customer C's proposal to treat him.

"What did you mean by that?" Seeing that the little contradiction between the two old friends had disappeared, customer B asked customer C curiously.

"As I said, there are a lot of new faces in the city! Of course, I wouldn't make a fuss if it were just fresh faces, but the problem is that most of those people are armed on their backs! They have scars on their faces, huge vicious dogs, and they have iron hooked arms, and they look like pirates...... Of the five holy spirits, even one of them just glanced at me inadvertently, and it made me fall into an ice cave, almost not scared to pee!" Thinking of the cold eyes of the man he had seen earlier, the customer couldn't help but shiver violently, and it was not until he poured twice the cold mead again that he seemed a little calmer.

"That sounds weird to you. Customer A nodded thoughtfully.

"I know why!" said a customer at a nearby table.

When customer C saw the other party looking at him with a smile, his eyes rolled, and he immediately said proudly: "How about that brother come and sit together?"

"Haha, then I'll thank you!" Seeing that the expected purpose was achieved, customer Ding was suddenly overjoyed and moved to the table where customer C and the three people were.

Customer Ding unceremoniously ate several pieces of grilled lamb chops, a large plate full of roasted green onions, and poured several glasses of mead before exhaling comfortably. Seeing that customer A was dissatisfied, customer B and customer C looked at him expectantly, customer Ding said with a little embarrassment: "I'm sorry, the food in this tavern is really good, but the price is a bit expensive, and I finally made up my mind to come once!

Customer Ding's confession won the favor of several people, including customer A, and his face softened - he, a descendant of a wealthy businessman in decline, has always been picky about making friends, but he will not have any bad feelings for a straightforward person like customer Ding......

"Brother, I said you better tell us quickly, why there are so many strange powerhouses in the city all of a sudden!" Seeing that customer Ding didn't go to the road for a long time, customer C couldn't help urging, obviously, in addition to being arrogant, customer C is still an anxious child.

"All of this is most likely due to the recruitment order issued by the lord!" said customer Ding, at the urging of customer C.

"Recruitment order?" rarely goes out, most of the time customer A who is immersed in painting obviously has never heard of this thing, and customer C also looks a little dazed.

"I really remember when you say that!" said Customer B, who suddenly clasped his hands together and said excitedly, "That's a poster released almost three months ago when Lord Lord and Mrs. Mavis were engaged!"

"Poster?!" Hearing what Customer B said, Customer C also remembered a lot of things, and he said excitedly, "It's the drawing paper with the portrait of the lord and the big title 'I need you' written on it? I also had one in my collection at the time! Tsk, not to mention anything else, the poster is also quite expressive, although it is not as handsome as the lord himself, but at least I have to throw those bullshit troubadours and the like out of a big street! If I had a daughter, I would have to marry her to the lord!"

"Well, with the way you look, what a beautiful daughter do you expect to give birth to?, so even if you do have a daughter, it's strange that you can be favored by the lord!" Customer B immediately expressed disdain.

"That's right," customer C didn't get angry, but groped his head in a sneer, "There are not many handsome, powerful, and talented men like Lord Lord, even in the entire Dawn Valley!

The others didn't think that customer C was slapping on the back at all, and they all nodded approvingly.

"Tell me what the hell is going on with that poster. Seeing a few people getting farther and farther away, customer A couldn't help but speak.

"That poster is a recruitment order, and it is open to the entire Blanca continent - no matter what race you are or what country you belong to, as long as you have extraordinary talents and can be favored by the lord, you can be directly promoted to the commander of the Black Wind Knights! Tsk, that's a thousand-commander, and he is also the commander of the knights! It is said that the newly formed knights of the viscount are organized according to the strictest standards - all knights must be third-order, and regular knights must be above the fourth order!" said the customer with envy. And the surrounding drinkers who were attracted by the conversation of several people all nodded in agreement.

"Is it too hasty to be promoted directly to the commander of a thousand soldiers?" In this regard, customer A disagreed.

"What can we people figure out?!" Seeing that customer A actually questioned the lord's decree, customer C, who had always been easy to talk, immediately looked at him dissatisfied, and many of them had almost the same expressions - it can be seen that because of the end of the Kuroshio, Leqi has undoubtedly won the hearts of the people!

Of course, there are some people like customer A who are skeptical, but when customer A is angry, these people do not dare to show their thoughts on their faces.

"Look, there are a lot of heads piled up on Tianqin Avenue, and they are all piled up into a human head tower, it's really scary!" At this time, everyone suddenly heard someone shouting outside the tavern.

And with this shouting, many drinkers in the tavern even forgot to pay the bill, and ran directly to Tianqin Avenue, wanting to see what the so-called Human Head Tower was all about!

At this time, there were countless people gathered inside and outside the Tianqin Avenue, and in the center of the small circle of these people besieging the city, there were many balls the size of pineapples;

However, because all these heads were powdered with stone, there was no bloody scene such as blood flowing sideways! Looking at this five-story human head tower with at least hundreds of human heads, the vast majority of people present will not have a peaceful sleep in the next month!

What's even more amazing is that at the top of this human head tower, there is a warrior sitting leisurely with a large knife on his shoulder and a hideous scar on his face - obviously, this human head tower is the masterpiece of this warrior!

"Get out of the way, Lord Lord!" was the moment when someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
