The Legend of the 498 Dynasty
A long, long time ago, when the Nordrian dynasty was at its peak, almost all the eastern seas of the continent were under their rule, and the endless seas were almost all their territory, and according to legend, their men were as powerful as the sea, and their women were as beautiful and elegant as pearls, their dynasties amassed endless wealth like the sea, and their royal families had artifacts and treasures that were coveted by the powerful. When the dynasty fell, many royal families fled to the sea with their possessions, and then disappeared from sight with the stormy winds, no one knew what the final fate of this prosperous dynasty was, and no one knew where they had hidden their treasures, and they had tried to find the whereabouts of these treasures, but they all ended up in vain.
On the historical trajectory of the Free Continent, only the name of this ethnic group has been left - the Nolans.
"While most of these rumors aren't as rosy as these descriptions suggest, ...... The story based on this country is quite true. ”
On the way back, Lao Zhou, whose expression was much more relaxed, explained with a smile: "Many players from Freedom City have already turned around the well-known ruins nearby, and some of these ruins do mention traces of this lost kingdom......"
"Then why hasn't its existence been confirmed yet?"
"Because of the time of birth in this country."
Carrying a large package of frying pans, he replied lightly: "According to the history of the development of the Free Continent, if such a kingdom really exists, it should be after the birth of the Tania tribe and even the establishment of the Duchy of Elnefia, but the time mentioned in this legend ...... There is no place to be able to get on the number. ”
"There's no place for the right number?" Duan Qingmo rubbed his chin: "What do you mean...... Isn't there a corresponding history? ”
"The closer we get to the present record, the clearer it is that both the process and the method become, and after the establishment of the principality, almost all the east of the free continent was under the rule of the Free City."
It seemed that there was finally a hint of meaning that matched his name, and Mr. Zhou Xue talked about his knowledge with great interest: "But according to all the records, including the Free City, we have never found a story about this Nordrian dynasty, let alone the official library, and we have never heard of even the wild history of the folk alleys......"
"This ...... Does it count as a problem? The Snow Spirit Phantom Ice on the side asked in a low voice, "This dynasty existed before the establishment of the principality...... Isn't that a very obvious result? ”
"Before the establishment of the Duchy, the entire continent was under the control of the Frey Empire." Without waiting for Lao Zhou to speak, Duan Qing took the lead in answering: "And before that...... It is the world of the Magic Empire, and according to the character of those two empires, it is simply impossible to establish such a prosperous dynasty under their noses. ”
"There is no record of it if it is near, and it is impossible to go far...... In the long history of the Free Continent, there is no time period about this dynasty. Teacher Zhou Xue coughed his throat, and then summed it up: "It is really difficult to confirm the authenticity of this dynasty, so the story about that dynasty ...... Everyone usually listens to it and forgets it when they look back. ”
"So...... The information of the pirate just now is also not credible, right? ”
"God knows, anyway, this kind of news is sold around the city every day."
Tian Xingjian, who was carrying another package, followed the back of the team, and replied with a wink: "At the beginning, there were many players who regarded it as a treasure and went to find the treasure place in their mouth every day, and then ...... You know, no matter how precious the information is, it is impossible for anyone to recognize its preciousness after the bad street. ”
"How do I remember someone who was clamoring to find the treasure of the sea in the first place?"
"Well, that's all in the past! Who else would believe any of this now? ”
"But that doesn't justify you from killing someone, right? They finally told you a detailed address......"
"Address? Do you dare to go to that address? Maybe it's not a treasure trove at all, but a pirate's lair! ”
"Honestly...... If it's really the pirates' lair, we're not going to be lost. ”
Ignoring the routine quarrel that the two of them started again, Teacher Zhou Xue, who was walking in front, whispered to Duan Qing: "Let's not talk about what exactly is there, just rely on the identity of a pirate...... This information can add a lot of points. ”
"Oh? Why? ”
"Legend has it that the Nordic dynasty did not fall at all, but became pirates after fleeing to the sea." Teacher Zhou Xue continued to explain: "Although this is also one of the rumors, this possibility is also extremely high, otherwise these pirate gangs with no foundation are ...... I simply don't have the skills to survive to this day. ”
"Pirates are also human beings, and naturally they should have their own homeland." Duan Qing said peacefully: "But that hometown is a deceased dynasty...... That's a bit too much. ”
"There are thousands of pirates entrenched in the eastern seas, and it is impossible for all of them to come out of that legendary dynasty." Teacher Zhou Xue nodded: "But ...... Some of them are descendants of that royal family, which is very likely. ”
"Hmm......"
"In short, since it is the inheritance of a certain dynasty and a treasure hidden in the sea, it is better to listen to the news of a pirate than to listen to the news of the tavern owners in the Free City." Teacher Zhou Xue smiled euphemistically, and at the same time pointed to the outline of a certain city in front of them: "As for the legend that everyone has heard...... Anyway, everyone is an adventurer, and their job is to be adventurous, right? ”
That is to say...... Are you going to go to that location to have a look? ”
"What, Brother Aoyama doesn't want to go?"
Under the sun, Duan Qing, who was walking at the front of the team, glanced at the woman next to him, and then met Teacher Zhou Xue's eyes: "We...... We still have our own mission in the Free City, so ......"
“…… It's okay, it's okay, we're not in a hurry to set off anyway. ”
Lao Zhou, the leader of the team, paused slightly, and then smiled and pointed to the scimitar on his waist: "There are enough things seized this time, enough for us to spend in the city for a while......"
"You've got a good knife, we haven't changed shotguns yet." Tian Xingjian, who was on the side, immediately heard it and said, "Don't prevaricate with the reason that the weapon was broken, how can that thing be sold for hundreds of gold coins......"
"It's better than spending a few thousand gold coins to buy the best equipment in your mouth." Lao Zhou unceremoniously counterattacked: "After going back, no one is allowed to run away with the money!" This rusty sword from last time was enough to blow our minds, and I don't want to receive any more surprises......"
"Do I rely on you ignorant people to see this power added? Do you see any special effects? No matter how bad it is...... It's better than a shovel in a pan, right? ”
", it's obviously the strength of labor and management."
"Nonsense! It's obviously my strength! ”
"And how many people did you just kill?"
"Five...... No, no, six! ”
"Hah, that's not much more than me, Brother Rust Flow?"
"Damn, no, no, no, I want to duel with you, carrying a handful of old farm things in the field all day long, and I dare to drag them to the sky?"
"Are you sure? What do you ask if you lose? How about two Walter tuna? ”
The two players in the back put down their packages one after another, drew their weapons and prepared to attack, ignoring the equipment and loot they had picked up from the battlefield and now rolled to the ground, along with Lao Zhou's dissuasion. Duan Qing, who was walking in front, also had to stop his steps, looking with interest at the upcoming duel between the two players, but the figure in the black cloak leaned towards his side at this time, and at the same time pulled the brim of his hat: "...... Are we really not going to go to that hidden spot to have a look? ”
"Eldest sister, we're here for business." Duan Qing replied helplessly: "Even if you go, you have to wait until the problem of meeting the city lord this time is resolved, right?" ”
"That's your business, not mine." Xue Lingbing pouted and replied, "Say it again...... Haven't we been beaten out? ”
"So who do you think we are failing......"
Whispering this sentence, Duan Qing changed the topic again before the murderous aura was about to cover his body: "Then you can't just give up, right?" Without this trick, we can think of other tricks, but we can also find a place to squat and wait for news from the merchant, who has collected our entire fleet of wealth, so we can't do nothing, right? ”
“…… We can give it a try while we wait for news. The woman was silent for a moment, then continued to whisper, "A team of people...... You can't just wait here, can you? ”
“…… Did you know I have a team? Duan Qing squinted at each other: "We have been out for a day, and they may not know where to find us if they have already run out!" If anything, if anything, should be ...... Not. ”
"Are you supposed to ...... Don't want to go back at all, do you? Looking at the eyes hidden under the hood, Duan Qing suddenly had an epiphany: "You still want to take me with you?" ”
“…… Where, where. ”
The eyes flickered for a moment, and then disappeared with the movement of the other party's bowed head: "I...... I just thought that this legend might have something to do with my mission......"
"Your mission?" So Duan Qing was surprised: "What other tasks do you have?" ”
"Ever since I took over Shirley's legacy, this mission has never gone away." Xue Lingphantom Ice replied in a low voice: "There are many kinds of tests for Shirley, and I have only completed two of them so far, in the previous introduction, that female warrior of the Norsr tribe has also been to various places on the continent and has had various experiences, although I don't know what the effect of walking through these footprints is for me, but ......"
"It's better to try than not to try, right?" Duan Qing pressed his forehead helplessly: "So what? What do you think the legend of this pirate in front of you has to do with your legacy? ”
"Probably...... Maybe ......" The woman's voice was hesitant for a while: "Maybe they were originally a family, isn't that royal family called the Nolans, and there is a word that coincides with the Norsr people......"
“…… Alas, Mo is not Shi Lezhi. ”
Yang Tian sighed for a while, Duan Qing finally took down the hand covering his face: "Okay, I will consider this 'coincidence' task, since we have all climbed the mountain to the sky, there is nothing wrong with going to the sea...... However, these things will be talked about until we go back, and it is better to take these three people with us, after all, it is a rumor that everyone worked hard together, and it doesn't seem to be such a real thing to leave people without saying a word......"
"Maybe they'll leave us behind and go find that place on their own." The cloak woman whispered, "Don't think too well of others. ”
"Come on, you don't live by legends."
Glancing towards Teacher Zhou Xue, where the three of them were still entangled, Duan Qing turned his head indifferently: "If they really went to explore that location privately, and then really found endless treasures......
"I'll just consider myself unlucky, okay?"
*************************
The task of finding the end of the sea was unexpectedly put aside by everyone, because they had just returned to the edge of the city, and the first thing they needed to solve was their own security - according to Lao Zhou's words, the Freedom City was surrounded by enemies that were more ferocious than the pirates, most of them were gangsters and gangs from this area, and a small number of players who imitated them and wanted to make a fortune through this means. These enemies usually like to guard the various passages into the free city, using pit abduction, coercion and inducement to obtain the property of passers-by, and over time, they even fight to occupy a good "pit", and even divide many territories like the inner city of the city. As an old fritter who has lived in this city for a long time, Mr. Zhou Xue naturally knows the strength and distribution of these territories well, but in the eyes of the other party, these players who have returned from the jungle and carried two full bags of loot are also the most oily and watery targets, and they are also the best targets.
With the consent of everyone, the five people immediately launched a vigorous plan to enter the city, but as soon as this battle plan began, Lao Zhou, as the leader, found a trace of abnormality: "No, why is no one ...... at that intersection?"
"What's wrong?"
"It's a stronghold, and it's usually occupied."
Pointing to a few temporary shacks next to the road, Teacher Zhou Xue whispered: "If it is a murderous person like the Sanlian Gang, we will generally choose to walk around, if someone like the Qingzhu Gang has the upper hand, we can consider spending a little money to go directly, but now no one ......"
"Could it be that someone is ambushing there?"
"I don't know, but it's generally impossible."
After walking a few steps towards the shacks, the pan that made sure that there was no one around wondered, "Strange ......"
"Did something happen?" He looked around here: "Or is the sun coming out in the west?" ”
The sound of horses' hooves interrupted the thinking of several people, and at the same time drove all five people to the side of the road, and several horsemen on horseback immediately passed in front of them with anxious faces: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”
"Urgent military intelligence! Death to those who obstruct it! ”
