To the north of the Slime Basin and the Kingdom of Hohen is the Kalmar Alliance.

Not long after the end of the war with the demons more than 300 years ago, when the human forces were reshuffled, the Hohen Kingdom, which was the first to recover, wanted to go north to occupy new lands, which made the nobles who originally planned to fight there quickly unite to form the Kalmar Alliance to resist the invaders from the south.

The bond between the two countries was thus concluded, and until now, whether in the adventurer industry or in the knowledge city, the people of both countries can lose to anyone but not to each other.

It's just that there is a place in the middle of the border between the two countries that no one wants, and it ends up being as borderlands as the Slime Basin.

In the center of the land is a volcano about the size of Mt. Fuji, and the largest kobold community in the world lives on the top and around the foot of the volcano, hence the name Mt. Koto.

At the foot of Mt. Dog's Head there are many huge gaps through which you can enter the caves where magma flows underground.

The scorching magma and poisonous gases caused the average person to die after entering the cave not long after, and only the strongest could enter it after adequate preparation.

This cave complex known as the "Lava Hell" is extremely rich in fire elementals, which will diffuse and affect the volcano and the surrounding creatures.

At the same time, the lava hell produces extremely high-quality fire crystals due to the rich fire element.

In order to obtain the fire magic crystal here, in addition to dealing with the extremely harsh environment in the lava hell, the kobolds and other demonic beasts on the mountain that have mutated because of long-term living in places with strong fire elements are also a big threat to adventurers.

Similarly, the mutated monsters, magic plants, and the occasional inferior fire crystals picked up by kobolds on the ground represented a huge resource.

It's not that the Hohen Kingdom and the Kalmar Alliance don't want to occupy this place, but when one side has action, the other side will inevitably drag its feet, and the two sides have consumed a lot of manpower and material resources for nearly a hundred years without achieving anything.

In the end, both sides simply gave up their claim to the place and instead sent adventurers to reap the benefits.

A few kilometers from the largest entrance to the lava hell is a small village where adventurers and merchants settle down, where adventurers sell their harvest to merchants and then save the money or spend it on wine.

As soon as the sun was sinking into the sky, a young adventurer in shabby clothes pushed open the door of the tavern, and several adventurers sitting near the gate were startled at the sight of the comer.

The right half of the adventurer's face was handsome, but the left half of his face had three scars that ran from his forehead to his cheeks.

After the experienced adventurers saw it, they all sighed that this guy's luck was good, and the claws of this monster were a little deeper, and his left eye would be blind.

The Scarface adventurer looked at the tavern hall and saw that it was full, and there were people at every table.

He soon noticed that there was only one man sitting at a small table, a young man of about twenty years of age, with hair as short as he had shaved not long ago, dressed in white cotton clothes, a long sword, and a strip wrapped in cloth on the table beside him.

What is most concerning is that his calm demeanor is beyond his corresponding age.

The scar-faced adventurer steadied himself, stepped forward and said respectfully to the short-haired young man in a slightly Bischberg Kingdom accent: "This big brother, can I share a table with you, I'll leave as soon as I'm done eating, soon." ”

The short-haired young man wanted to refuse, but after hearing a country voice that he hadn't heard for years, he said in a deep and magnetic voice, "Yes." ”

"Thank you so much!" Scarface Adventurer thanked and sat down diagonally across from the short-haired young man, then beckoned the waiter to ask for a stew and a few dough cakes, and took out the copper plate and paid for it a little distressedly.

After ordering the dish, the scar-faced adventurer noticed that the short-haired young man was looking at him, and after a moment the short-haired young man asked, "Isn't rice cheaper than bread?"

The Scarface adventurer was a little embarrassed and said, "I've been here for a while, but I'm still not used to eating rice. ”

The short-haired young man asked again, "Are you from Bischberg?"

This time he used the accent of the Kingdom of Bischberg.

The scar-faced adventurer was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh, big brother, you are also from Bischberg?

"My name is Gu Mingdi Sanxian, I don't know what the eldest brother is called?"

"Alan. The short-haired young man replied.

He then asked, "Listen to the accent, are you from Messina or Catania?"

Gu Mingdi Sanxian replied a little cautiously: "I live in the south of Catania. ”

At this time, Alan suddenly asked, "Does Lady Valon still lose her hair?" ”

Gu Mingdi Sanxian said in surprise: "The wife of the old man of Walong is not a red ......"

He couldn't say anything more than that, and a cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He begged for mercy and whispered to Allen, who was smiling but not smiling, "Big brother, don't say anything, now we don't do that kind of business." ”

Alan asked a little curiously, "What else can you do if you don't be a bandit, do you grow flowers?"

Gu Mingdi Sanxian said "hehe" twice and said, "We will start raising sheep now." ”

"Thanks to Her Royal Highness Linda, wool is now sold, and sheep raising is a good business. ”

Alan asked again, "Then why don't you raise sheep and run out?"

Gu Mingdi Sanxian said a little embarrassed: "Big brother, you understand us, and I won't hide it from you." It's not easy for us to find a daughter-in-law, the girls around us are still afraid of us, and the girls in the mountains are too familiar to start, so I came all the way here to find a daughter-in-law to go back. ”

Alan looked at Gu Mingdi Sanxian with disdain, and said, "And she found out what you did before, and you can't run home because the road is too far, right?"

At this time, the waiter girl brought the dinner of Gu Mingdi Sanxian, and he took this opportunity to hide his embarrassment.

Gu Mingdi Sanxian pulled the dinner at a very fast speed, and Alan frowned and said, "Don't worry, you can slow down." ”

As soon as Gu Mingdi Sanxian nodded, a very nice female voice came from the side.

"Long time no see, Alan. ”

Walked was a young girl in a dress, and a small yark slightly obscured her beautiful features.

"Ah, sister-in-law is here! Gu Mingdi Sanxian hurriedly left with the bowl of stewed meat and the plate of bread, and a table happened to be empty not far away.

If he doesn't leave, he can't do it, and it won't be easy for him to be recognized by this girl as the "prosperous wealth" of the year.
