Brother 45 Serya
Xius got a high-level magic item to make it, and he was in a good mood, and the fatigue and boredom along the way were reduced a lot.
The journey to the final destination of Theseus, the city of Celia, was not easy, and the road was so desolate that there was no human settlement.
Hughes hurried until the seventh day, when he finally saw some people occasionally on the way.
They were all businessmen who went to different places, and Xius also took money to supplement a lot of things on these convoys, and some of them had bad thoughts about Xius, seeing that Xius was generous, he was ready to kill Xius and take the money, but all of them were killed by Xius, and the corpses were thrown in the middle of the road, as for who was unlucky, it depends on luck.
Xius is not disgusted with killing, as long as others have bad thoughts about him, then he has a reason to act.
Compared to other wizards, Hughes felt that he was not bad, at least he did not kill innocents indiscriminately.
One of the rules for Xius to see the Shadow Ring is that human experiments cannot be carried out, but Xius disdains this rule, the rules are just decorations, and the dean of the Shadow Ring is not the same as catching ordinary people to sacrifice!
People have always been afraid of wizards.
There are also some rules among wizards that large-scale witchcraft cannot be used in crowded places, or some kind of experimentation may be carried out so as not to cause rejection by ordinary people.
Although wizards look down on ordinary people, it is the group of ordinary people who constantly injects fresh blood into the group of wizards, so most wizards follow the rules.
"It's almost there!" After a long journey of almost half a month, Theseus reached the outskirts of the city of Seria.
After more than ten days of travel, Xius and the horse he rode were rarely tired, and Xius did not dare to travel overnight, because he was afraid that the horse would be tired.
Xius led the horse and looked at the surrounding environment, the terrain here was no longer suitable for riding a horse, so he had no choice but to lead it.
Seria City looks good, there are acres of fields planted on the periphery alone, and the crops in the fields are also just sprouting, and a piece of green is full of vitality.
At the edge of the castle, there was a huge windmill mill, which was larger than a house.
Originally, Xius planned to make a detour, but found a river that could reduce the distance by a lot, and Xius first tried the depth of the water, just to his knees.
The river was still very cold in the spring, and when Hughes took off his shoes and went in, he felt a chill and kept drilling into his body.
The river was not too wide, about eight or nine meters, and Xius pulled the horse that was reluctant to go into the water and crossed the river quickly.
Looking at the city in front of him, Xius wanted to quickly find a shop to rest and rest, as for believing it or something.
Theseus led the horse and prepared to enter the city, the walls of Seria City were very tall, and the buildings inside could not be seen outside, and there were still many marks of scratching on the walls, and there were two patrol teams patrolling in different directions.
"There should have been wars here before. Hughes thought to himself as he looked at the still obvious traces.
"Stop, who's it!" Approaching the gate, Theseus was stopped by the soldiers defending the city with their spears in their hands.
"A businessman, go into town and talk about something. Hughes smiled and introduced himself unhurriedly.
"Well, you need to pay a copper coin to enter the city, and that's true for anyone. The soldier looked at Hughes, and then at the horse that Hughes was holding in his heart, and he didn't feel embarrassed, and there was no bloody incident.
"Here you go!" Theseus dropped a copper coin into the soldier's hand.
"You can go in, but don't go out and walk around at night, Celia City hasn't been very safe lately, many young people have disappeared in the middle of the night, and we are also investigating this matter, so don't come out at night, others will be arrested by our patrol team." The soldier took the copper coin and admonished Hughes.
"Okay, thank you!" said Theseus, smiling, pulling his horse and walking into the city.
When he entered the city, he found that everything in the city was completely different from the kind of thriving development he saw outside the city.
Xius led the horse and walked on the loess street, the people on both sides of the road, looking at the eyes of Xius, were both envious and greedy, Xius and their eyes met, and quickly avoided Xius's sight in fear.
Hughes had been looking at Serya's tall walls from the outside before, and he couldn't have imagined that the environment inside would be so bad.
The road of loess, a gust of wind came, and dust came in his face, and Xius had to block it with his robe.
The people of Seria City also looked yellow and thin, as if they fell when the wind blew.
The clothes are also made of different colors of pudding.
There were only a few vendors hanging livestock meat on the road, and many people were staring at the few pieces of meat hanging on them, eager to rush over and grab them.
For a while, Xius was a little disappointed in Seria City, dirty, messy, and poor, this is how Xius felt.
"Well, let's go and deliver the letter yourself!" Theseus had planned to find a shop to rest well, but now it seemed that it was better to go and deliver the letter directly.
"Do you know Dave Ryan?" Wizard Matt only told Hughes the name of the person who received the letter, and Hughes didn't know who this Dave Ryan was, so he could only ask passers-by with the mentality of giving it a try.
The passers-by who were stopped by Hughes were startled, and they were relieved to see that Xius had no malice.
"Dave Ryan, are you looking for the city lord?" looked at Hughes blankly.
"Huh?" Xius didn't expect that the person he pulled casually really knew, this Dave was still a city lord.
"Very well, tell me how to find him. ”
"Follow this road, just walk all the way to it. The man didn't think much of it, and just showed Xius the way.
Hughes led the horse and walked briskly down the road to the City Lord's Mansion.
In a few moments, they were at the place where the man had pointed out to Hughes.
"Stop, who's who?" The soldier at the door saw Hughes approaching and hurriedly stopped.
"I'm going to see your lord, and you'll just tell Matt Joy to find someone to deliver him a letter. Hughes took the letter out of his backpack.
"This," the soldier looked at the letter in Hughes's hand and did not reach for it, and then looked at Hughes, and felt that he had not come to make trouble, so he prepared to report it.
"You wait for me here first, I'll go and inform the city lord!" The soldier's tone was also polite, if the other party really knew the city lord, he couldn't afford to offend.
Xius was not in a hurry, and stood outside the door honestly waiting for the soldiers to come out.
After a while, the soldier walked out with a pot-bellied man, and the clothes on his body looked gorgeous with stitches and threads.
"This should be Dave!" Hughes looked at the people who walked over, and then at the attitude of the soldiers next to him, and already had a guess in his heart.
"It's really a disappointment. As soon as Dave saw Hughes, a light lit up in his eyes.
Hurriedly stepped forward to gasp and say hello to Hughes, it seems that this trot is not suitable for a city lord.
Hughes followed Dave all the way to the hall, and Hughes also gave him the letter that Wizard Matt had given him.
Hughes sat and drank the black tea handed by his servant, waiting for Dave to finish the letter.
"Alas, this matter of theses will trouble you!" Dave said to Hughes after reading it, putting it down, and turning to it.
"Huh?" said Hugh, who didn't understand what Dave meant.
"You also saw Hughes just now, the people in the city are not living very well, this Seria City was not like this, there was a beast tide here three months ago, most of the things were destroyed, and they are being rebuilt. Dave took a sip of tea and continued.
"Originally, it was all good, and I don't know what's wrong, someone has been missing recently, and you shouldn't have heard of it when you walked in the city. ”
Theseus nodded, along the way, he had indeed heard a lot about the people who had disappeared in the city recently.
"I also sent a lot of people to look for it, but they didn't find anything, many people in the city have left, and the people are panicking, and there is no choice but to ask your teacher for help. Dave slumped in his chair, he had just experienced this kind of thing after the beast tide had happened, and there was a lot of pressure on this city lord.
"You didn't ask the Holy See for help?" Theseus was a little strange, and it stands to reason that Dave should have reported this kind of thing as soon as possible.
"Don't mention it, the current Holy See doesn't have money to call them at all, even if it is reported, it will be delayed again and again, and this Seria City can't support it for so long. Dave's face was painful, and he could tell that he had put a lot of effort into the city.
