The spring sun was warm, and Rapoll was as vibrant as ever. Due to its location in the middle of the continent, the city became a necessary place for caravans to supply and rest, and although the number of caravans heading to the east was greatly reduced due to the new decree, the city of Rapoll was still bustling with people at the gates.

The wagons of the caravan lined up, waiting to enter the city for inspection, and the big merchants also got out of the carriages, stretching their stiff bodies, and by the way, they were close to the people around them, exchanging information, and maybe they could find new business opportunities.

"The city lord of Rapoll is really comfortable, occupying the center of the continent, even if he lies at home all day and does nothing, he can become rich in the world just by collecting tolls, right?" a big businessman couldn't help but complain.

"Yes, like us, we can't make a lot of money even if we are tired and tired, and we have to worry about running into bandits. ”

"The bandits are just gone, at most they are ruined and destroyed. If you run into a demon, it's a dead end. ”

"Speaking of which, haven't you noticed that the security in the Torruz area has been much better lately? I haven't met a single bandit along the way, let alone a demon. A young man said suddenly.

Several other big businessmen laughed when they heard this, and said to the man, "You're a novice, right?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then said shyly: "Will it really be seen? I am deliberately pretending to be very old." ”

"It has nothing to do with your behavior. If you are a veteran, you will definitely not be able to ask the question just now. Now the businessmen who run this line know that the Torruz area can be said to be the best place for security in the whole continent!"

"Why is that?" asked the young man curiously.

"Because of the lord of Rapoll, of course. The big businessman who complained at the beginning said, "Although I said a joke before, I have great respect for the castle lord. Unlike other pleasure-seekers, the latter spent all his tax revenues on people's livelihoods, not only ordering the City Guard to patrol the Torruz area, exterminating the bandits, but also building a road between the towns and villages leading to Rapoll. Didn't you notice that there was a smooth gravel road all the way?"

The young man was very surprised when he heard this: "Do you mean that those roads were built by the lord of Rapoll? Even if it is the lowest stone road, the cost of such a calculation is astronomical." ”

"Who's to say it's not, that's why the entry tax is ridiculously high. Another big businessman couldn't help but complain.

"But who let the family occupy this treasure of feng shui? Besides, although it costs a lot of money, it is also a lot safer, and the new road has also increased the speed of traffic, and if you do the math carefully, the profit will increase." ”

"It is precisely because of this that everyone will be willing to pay. ”

The big merchants began to talk nonsense, and the young man before asked puzzledly: "It's okay to talk about the bandits, but why do the demons seem to have disappeared? I heard that those people charge a very high fee, and a commission will cost a small town several years of savings, even if the city lord has money, he can't afford this kind of expense, right?"

"You don't even know this?" The big businessmen were stunned: "Which small place are you from?"

"I'm from the South, and I'm here to buy wine for Lord Luciella in La Poule. The young man replied honestly.

"Is it the Southern Lord's purchasing officer? But wasn't the previous purchasing officer York? Why didn't he come, was he sick?"

"Well, it's true that I'm having some health problems, and I probably won't be able to work for Lord Luciella in the future. "The young man wiped the sweat from his head, and the guts of that unlucky boy of York were eaten clean by Lord Luciella, so it should be considered a 'problem' with his body.

"Poor fellow, may he recover soon!"

There should be little chance of recovery in this life, and the corpses are buried under Lord Luciella's courtyard as flower fertilizer, and they have long been cold. The young man laughed dryly and resumed the previous topic: "Senior, the question about demons ......"

"Oh, you said that. Rapoll didn't ask for a big sword, they used their own team!"

"Your own team?"

"Silver-Eyed Slayer!" said the great merchant with a wistful look, "Although she is a woman, she is the embodiment of strength and beauty, a messenger sent to the world by the twin goddesses, and an elegant and noble flower of judgment!"

As soon as the merchant's words fell, he heard a female voice say coldly: "Hmph, what a flower of judgment, it's just a bunch of shameful traitors!"

"Hey, don't slander the beliefs in other people's hearts!" The big businessman was still angry and wanted to find someone to theorize, but when he turned his head and saw the person who spoke, he sat on the ground in fright: "Big, big sword!?"

The person who spoke was blonde and silver-eyed, wearing light armor, it was a great sword, and there was more than one, and behind her, there were three expressionless big swords!

"Four great swords?"

"Why is Greatsword here?"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way! If you are touched by them, you will be unlucky for a lifetime!"

In a panic, the crowd instantly moved out of the way, hiding on both sides and looking at the four great swords in the middle of the road with frightened eyes.

"Hey, that's really unpleasant. A short-haired sword pouted and said, "Obviously the counterfeiter is highly respected, but we genuine goods should be treated like this?"

A big sword with long straight hair said expressionlessly: "Luo Yalu, you have too much nonsense. Hurry up and get things done and don't care about things that don't matter. ”

"Oops, I was trained by Sister Inriri. The great sword, known as Royalu, stuck out his tongue and grimaced.

Another big wavy curly-haired sword gloated and said: "It is precisely because of your rough personality that you will always be NO.4." ”

"What are you kidding, I've always been No.3, right? Luo Yalu immediately blew up: "Sophia, you are NO.4, don't be mistaken this time!"

Sophia smiled slightly: "It's really arrogant, Sister Luo Yalu, do you want to compete here?"

Luo Yalu raised his eyebrows, and said without showing weakness: "Welcome, I'm tired of the battle of tongues for a long time!"

Seeing that the battle between the two was about to break out, the last short man with a big sword with a wide forehead stood between the two. Her face was childish, but her tone was very resolute: "Two or two seniors, there should be no dispute between companions, please be sure to focus on the task! And, moreover, according to the latest adjustment, the ranking of the two of you has dropped in turn, even if it is a competition, you should also compete for NO.4 and NO.5!"

The corners of Luo Yalu's and Sophia's mouths twitched when they heard this, and they said angrily in unison: "You guy, did you come to laugh at us on purpose?"

"Huh?" The broad-foreheaded sword waved his hand repeatedly: "Why are you suddenly angry? Even if you two are ranked lower than me, I won't laugh at you for it." After all, you are my seniors, and I can't be rude!"

"Alas......" the long-haired sword Ineri sighed, "Fisna, if you can, can you please not speak easily?"

"Okay, okay!" Fisna with a wide forehead nodded: "I don't know why, but if it was an order from Innelli's senior, I would have listened to it." Even if you don't rank as high as mine, you are the captain appointed by the deputies. ”

"Poof!" Luo Yalu couldn't hold back her laughter, she patted Fisna on the shoulder and said, "I really don't know if you're pretending or really stupid, you can say something angry inadvertently." ”

Fisna: ? (⊙_⊙)

Sophia also spread her hands and said: "Such a naïve guy can become NO.2, is it true that we are old?"

Fisna: (°ー°〃)!

Ineri raised her forehead and said, "What a group of headache guys, let's go, finish the task early!"

"OK!" Luo Yalu smiled and looked in the direction of the city gate: "But that one is really rampant, doesn't he hide his demonic aura at all?"

Sophia shrugged: "This is also something that can't be helped, who let us crusade target the smiling Denisha? As the strongest NO.1, people have a reason to be rampant!"

"You're right. Luo Yalu said: "As long as I think of that woman, my hands and feet will tremble, I don't know how much stronger she has become after such a long time?"

"No matter how strong you are, you must kill the target!" Innelli said in a deep voice, "Let's go, don't make our old friend wait." ”

"Yes!"

The four big swords had serious expressions, and walked towards the city gate step by step under the frightened eyes of everyone, exuding a cold and resolute aura all over their bodies, which made people awe-inspiring. The metal boots collided with the bluestone floor with a thumping sound, as if stepping on everyone's heart, making the atmosphere extremely solemn for a while.

And then......

With a click, the soldiers guarding the door set up their spears to block the four people, and a team leader pointed to the long line outside: "...... Let's get in line. ”

Four Great Swords: "......"
