Chapter 5: Jimenez

"Please pay two gold coins to enter the city, my lord. ”

At the gate, a guard blocks Phil's path.

Phil was stunned for a moment, and touched his body in embarrassment, he didn't expect that there was such a rule, he saw that the carriage came in just now and didn't collect money from them.

He was now penniless, let alone two gold coins.

"I'm sorry, but I lost all my gold during the experience. ”

Phil shook his head in mock regret, his voice hoarse and low.

If you can't get into Brell Town, you'll have to think of another way.

"My lord, I'm afraid you can't enter the city, that's the rule of the Jimenez family. ”

The guard shook his head in embarrassment.

"If we let you in like this, I'll be burned at the stake. ”

"Can't you be more tolerant of a brave adventurer who is starving and almost dies in the wilderness?

Hearing this, Phil raised his voice and feigned anger.

He realized that he was wearing the captain's armor, and the captain was very strong, and even though he was in disarray, the guards were still so respectful to him, and it was likely that this armor represented something.

He had to try this way to see if the guards would give in.

The guards are really very embarrassed, on the one hand, the Jimenez family, if they violate their rules, their fate will not be good, on the other hand, the glorious swordsman who has just returned from training, if he is really forced to hurry, it is very likely that he will directly kill himself at the city gate, and no one can save himself.

This tall swordsman was covered in blood, he was a head taller than himself, he was looking down at himself, and there was even murderous intent in his eyes, which was not easy to mess with.

The guards were like ants on a hot pot, so anxious that they were about to cry.

At this moment, a voice came-

"Hey, Ruka boy, I'll take care of it, you step down. ”

What a lifesaver!

The guard, Ruka, who had negotiated with Phil, breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped aside.

A skinny guard about thirty years old with a beard stepped forward with a smile.

He took a water bag from his waist and gestured to Phil, taking a quick sip.

"I see your lips are chapped, and you must have been very thirsty all the way, so if you don't dislike it, please drink this. ”

With that, he handed over the water bag.

Phil took the hydration bag and didn't speak.

Seeing that Phil didn't mean to drink water, the skinny guard smiled and continued.

"Drink, please, it doesn't mean anything other than to pay tribute to your bravery and tenacity. ”

Phil looked at the water bag in his hand, and then at the thin guard in front of him who was only up to his abdomen with a sincere face, and without hesitation, he raised his head and drank it.

The feeling of cool water pouring into my throat is even more comfortable than when I open my eyes and see the gray world when I am born.

I don't remember drinking water as such a refreshing thing.

Memories are just fragments of memories pieced together by extremely powerful human beings, only those dazzling spells, hideous and terrifying beasts, magnificent palaces, and strong hatred and despair for this world.

Phil felt that none of this was enough to put the water in his throat at this moment.

Even if he has such great power, he has never cared about the kindness of the world to him, such as breathing, drinking water, and enjoying the sun, is he pathetic or pitiful?

Phil drank the water from the water bag and thought silently to himself.

The skinny guard saw that Phil had finished drinking the water and was not talking again, and that he had just reached his abdomen and kept looking up at him, and he coughed lightly to relieve his embarrassment.

"So, what's your name?"

The skinny guard asked with a smile back.

Phil came to his senses.

"Phil, Phil Blackson. ”

He returned the hydration bag to the skinny guard, staring into the guard's eyes and said solemnly.

"Thank you very much. ”

The guard took a half-step back, hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand.

"It's just a gesture. I'm supposed to be a lot older than you, so I'll just call you Phil, my name is Bugatio Jimenez, you can call me Lao Bu. ”

Phil nodded lightly to indicate that he understood.

Bugatio kept smiling, as if there was only one expression on his face.

"Why don't we go into the city and talk about something?"

He made a "please" gesture to Phil and continued.

"I take the liberty of inviting you into town, but there is still a request to ask what you mean. ”

Phil raised his guard, he didn't know what medicine was sold in Bugatio's gourd. His body was not afraid of toxins, and his memory emphasized this, and he could drink the water that Bugatio gave him with confidence and boldness.

The bag of water just now really won his favor, and he originally wanted to enter the city, but Phil couldn't refuse.

And being cautious is not the same as cowering. If you want to really get stronger, how can you be timid?

"It's my pleasure, old cloth. ”

Phil smiled appropriately.

Bugatio's smile seemed to be a little brighter when he heard Phil's answer.

He tapped the ring on the index finger of his right hand, and two gold coins appeared out of thin air on his left hand.

He beckoned Ruka to come over, handed the two gold coins to Ruka, turned his head and smiled at Phil.

"Of course, we can't afford to follow our rules. ”

Phil's brows jumped, not because Bugatio followed the rules, he knew that Bugatio was performing just five days after he was born, and he didn't hand over two gold coins in the carriage just now, and he didn't see any guards jump out to ask for two gold coins.

What he really noticed was the red crystal ring on Bugatio's finger.

In the Misty Forest, he noticed that the captain had the exact ring in his hand, and he didn't care if he thought it was just an ornament. He was still wondering where the Captain had put all the harvest they had come to the Misty Forest, and he hadn't seen anyone with a backpack. It's just that he didn't think much about it when he was attracted by the freeze-frame hourglass, and he didn't notice whether the other members of the team had this ring or not, and the captain's ring was very likely to have the same function as Bugatio's current ring, storing items.

Phil's expression became strange.

Thinking of this, if he had taken off the captain's ring at that time, how could he be in such a situation now.

Bugatio didn't see the change in Phil's expression, after all, the height difference between the two was really a bit big.

The heavy wooden door rubbed against the ground and made a feeble scream.

Once again, the three guards pushed open the gate.

It is an arched passage with a larger wooden door in front and a smaller wooden door closed.

Bugatio motioned for the three guards to close the door, then trotted over to the small wooden door, slowly pushing it open.

Sunlight shone into the passage through a small wooden door, casting a long rectangular light shadow on the floor of the passage.

Bugatio turned around, straightened his arms behind his back, and said to Phil.

"Welcome to the town of Breer. ”

After speaking, he made another "please" gesture.

Phil's concentration was so focused that he never let his guard down.

Phil walked over to the wooden door.

"Thank you very much. ”

He said again.

Brell appeared in front of him in the town.

The main road is paved with gray stones, about ten meters wide, and there are two paths against the city wall, only seven or eight meters wide, which disappear at the corner of the city wall.

The avenue is lined with all sorts of shops, and not many people walk around the town these days.

The houses are all of a uniform style, made of blue-black stone bricks, not very high, and there is no moss at the corners, indicating that they are often cared for, and the roof made of orange tiles has a large angle, but it does not seem strange.

Phil looked at the layout of the town with a blank face, but the first time he actually saw the town, he was not at peace inside.

"This street is Nanshan Street, the busiest street in town. ”

Bugatio pointed to his feet and introduced to Phil.

"Look at that, at the end of Nanshan Street, there is a sculpture, which is the sculpture of the first mayor, it is at the entrance of Miracle Square, and you can enter Miracle Square after passing the mayor's sculpture. ”

Bugatio pointed into the distance again and continued with a smile.

"To tell you the truth, I know all the Glory Swordsmen in the town, and I also know the candidates who are about to advance to the Glory Swordsmen. But this is the first time I've met you, so you must have been lost here from another city, right? ”

"We in the town of Brell have always been very friendly and peaceful, and have always been very welcoming to powerful people. ”

He didn't give Phil time to speak, and Bugatio finally pointed to a tower.

"The clock tower on the west side of the Place de l'Miracle, yes, that's the tower, that's the Jimenista, right there, where I'm going to take you, the most luxurious mansion in town. ”

"We are Jimenez House. ”
