Chapter 416: Sand City
Those angry mercenaries smashed around the blood tiger's stall with weapons, although there were many of them, but the number of mercenaries who smashed was much worse, and the result was not only the stall was smashed. People haven't choked enough.
The young man told Xia Xinghan about the matter, and Xia Xinghan went to see the excitement. Standing on the periphery of the crowd and watching those people, Xia Xinghan still applauded from time to time. Jiufeng said curiously, "Did you know in advance that they would do this?"
"Haven't you heard that wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, and dogs travel thousands of miles to eat? As long as you understand what kind of person your opponent is, it is not difficult to predict his next move. Now add some problems to them, and in a few days, we will leave tomorrow, let him rack his brains here to break the game!"
"You're doing this to distract them, aren't you?"
"That's right, give them a little bit of fun, and we'll take care of our own business, we really don't have much time right now. When they rack their brains, there will be professional people to deal with them, and when the time comes, they will slowly play here for the sake of this little benefit! The profit in the town is only a few million taels of silver a year, we just want them to be uncomfortable, and we don't need to care about the rest, and there are no large weapons here, after all, the number of mercenaries is still very limited, and we don't want to be like the army. At most, you can get orders from a few larger mercenary groups here, and those people from Martial God Harbor will not order here on a large scale, they will choose to order in Martial God Harbor, the first is safety, and the second is cheap. The third is that there are many more styles than here. After Xia Xinghan analyzed it, he pinched Jiufeng's face and said, "Okay, let's go!"
Xia Xinghan set up a game to stay, and then slipped with oil on the soles of his feet......
Xia Xinghan took the picture and hurriedly left the town, this hand is really good enough, Luo Ning only knew that Xia Xinghan ran away after being notified, as for Nie Qing is still studying how to deal with Xia Xinghan......
Luo Ning looked at Xia Xinghan's handwritten letter, he shook his head slightly and said: "This kid is full of heart, this is to give you a climax, as long as you fall in and face him, he will run away! You have to play here slowly, you won't notice it at all!"
"So what do we do?"
"The hall master asked us to come over to support Xia Xinghan, if that's the case, we don't have to do anything just stay and play with them for a few days, until we leave normally, the people transferred by Xia Xinghan will be there soon, Nie Qing is still squatting at home to study how to make money, Xia Xinghan has already run away, and he won't give you a chance at all!"
The Yuyuan Desert is the most dangerous desert in the entire Eternal Continent, and although this desert is not the largest, it is definitely the most dangerous, and there is no one. The road of this desert is full of moving sand dunes, and there are sand jackals everywhere, and this desert is hot and dry, the whole area is deserted, and there is no trace of human beings standing in the desert sand dunes that can not be seen at all.
Xia Xinghan and Jiufeng walked in the desert for three days before they arrived at the secret realm in the middle of the desert, that is, Shakara City. Shakara is not big, just an earthen city, and the only difference between here and the outside is that there is a water source. Generally speaking, mercenaries will leave Shakara before the sandstorm comes, Shakara is not a safe place, when Xia Xinghan came to Shakara, he found that most of the houses here were buried under the sand, and the people in Shakara City were cleaning the sand on the ground...... However, when Xia Xinghan came to an ancient relic building in the center of the city, he found that he had misunderstood!
Shakara is not a city on the ground, but a huge underground city, there is a water source deep underground in the city, after entering from the entrance, Xia Xinghan finally understood why this city has been here for so long, those things on the ground are just a small corner of the city, the real city is underground, through the long corridor underground, Xia Xinghan contacted and walked four or five ramps, he saw a giant underground city. There is a fundamental difference between the cities outside this city, and that is that this is a subhuman city.
There are not many humans here, and subhumans can be seen everywhere, and lizardmen are the most numerous. Moreover, the clothes of the people here are also in the style of the Western Regions, many of them wear headscarves, Xia Xinghan and Jiufeng are not treated particularly here at all because they use the appearance of elves.
The city has a special requirement, that is, humans cannot stay in Shakara during a sandstorm, they believe that humans staying in Shakara to escape the storm will be cursed, and it is easy to not survive this storm. Shakara is a home built by the Ya people, so Xia Xinghan appeared here at this time, and there was no trace of human beings at all, and the people here were also very friendly to them.
Elves are the dominant race in the Western Regions, and the relationship between elves and subhumans is also very good, although elves generally seem arrogant, but these elves are very rich. Xia Xinghan walked on the street, and many people would enthusiastically promote their products. Xia Xinghan found that it was really right to use the identity of an elf, because here the subhumans seemed to have some privileges. In Shakara, humans are mostly on the ground, and subhumans can enter the dungeon at will.
Humans also have passages outside, but there is an essential difference between the two passages, subhumans can directly go down through the three floors, while humans need to pass through the first three layers to reach the level of Yaren entrance. The deeper you go in the dungeon, the more good things you can see, the passage outside Shakara City is used by humans, so the cleaning of the passage is handled by humans themselves, and subhumans will also participate in the work, but people can still enter the dungeon to hunt without stopping. They then took the materials to the ground to trade with the humans, and Shakara was almost a subhuman city anyway. The customs and habits here are different from those outside.
It costs a lot to enter the outer dungeon, but the entrance to the underground is not so high, and you can hire some experienced veterans to enter, the sub-people of Shakara cherish their city very much, because Shakara is the last city of the sub-people, in the Zhongzhou continent, although there are sub-people everywhere, but the only sub-human city is Shakara. In the Eternal Continent, the living conditions of the sub-humans have not been very good, especially the humans in the Western Regions have shown stronger aggression, and the humans and the sub-humans have often waged wars, and they have never stopped.
Therefore, the attitude of subhumans towards humans has always been bad. Especially in the Eastern Regions, it is almost a forbidden place for subhumans......
Of course, this matter has disappeared in the Changyang Empire, and the first rule set by the Changyang Empire is to abolish human trafficking and prohibit the buying and selling of subhumans. Violators will be beheaded in the most serious cases. So the situation in the Eastern Regions has also begun to improve.
But on the whole, the living conditions of subhumans are really not very good!
After Xia Xinghan and the others came in, they met a person who recommended himself as a tour guide, and he took Xia Xinghan and Jiufeng to the most lively place in Shakara: Mercenary Square.
There is the only mercenary guild in Shakara in this square, and this guild is also responsible for the defense of Shakara, once there is an outside intruder, they will issue a conquest order, let all the mercenaries fight the enemy, and then the enemy's corpse will become a proof of their payment.
"The two adults are here to hunt for treasure in the dungeon?"
"Well, yes. We are from the Eastern Regions. ”
After Xia Xinghan finished speaking, the tour guide said in surprise: "My God! You actually came over in the Eastern Regions, didn't you eat Asians there?"
"Hehe, there may have been, but there was a special accident on the southern coast, the Changyang Empire was established, and they issued a public decree strictly prohibiting the persecution of the sub-people, and many of our companions joined the army there. We also want this area to be more and more, so we do our best to protect the royal power there. ”
"It's incredible, there is a royal family in the Eastern Regions who is willing to protect the subhumans, that country must not be too big, right?"
"Fortunately, it's the third largest country in the world, right? It's a little smaller than the Triumphant Empire in the Western Regions. But the number of troops should be the largest country, because the subhuman groups joined, and the total number of troops exceeded five million. ”
