"Have you heard? A group of foreign adventurers have already arrived in our city, and the lord of the city is personally receiving them! ”

One of the soldiers of the squad standing at the gate of the city was humane to the surroundings.

"Really? Who do you listen to? A group of soldiers next to him suddenly became interested, and these days there was a lot of uproar about foreign adventurers, and unlike the panic in the hearts of ordinary residents, the soldiers were more curious and expectant.

Now that they are in a catastrophe, they are equivalent to the survivors of the lonely city in the last days, and they are more eager to have compatriots in other places to survive, after all.... No one really wants the end times to come.

"When I went to fetch you food just now, I heard that people were talking about it, saying that this time the foreign adventurers will openly meet with the city lord, and everyone is allowed to watch, if you have any questions, you can ask them in person!"

"Shall I go to the real one?" The soldier next to him was first excited, and then puzzled: "No, I've been on duty here since the early hours of the morning, why don't I know that there are outsiders?" From which gate did you enter? ”

There are only two gates in Gondolin, and now they are located at the gate facing the empire, and it is rumored that this adventurer is a human force, so it is impossible to come from the side of the Black Rock Plain, right?

"I heard that our mage has researched the magic passage that links to other cities, and foreign adventurers came through there!"

"And this kind of thing?" The soldier suddenly became excited, his face was full of surprise, but he didn't doubt it in his heart, after all, these mages brought by Lord Isabel had already done too many miraculous things.

The cultivation of artificial land, the transportation of equipment and food out of thin air, and the near-resurrection of the dead have all brought new hope to a crumbling city!

"In that position? I'm on duty and I'm going to see ......"

"I said that I asked you to go and see it later, and I came back to tell us about the situation, and I heard that the address is in the city lord's special trial square....."

"Okay, okay, I'll go when that black bear guy comes and changes my class!!"

-------------------------------------------------

"Welcome, adventurers from afar!" On the other side of the square, the crowd was almost completely surrounded at this time, and both the soldiers on the periphery and the residents in the city were very curious about these so-called outsiders, and even those orcs came to join in the excitement.

As a condition for giving priority to the selection of shops, Xiao Cabbage and the others must cooperate to do a wave of show, at this time, Xiao Cabbage and the others have done arcane makeup, and their appearance and dress are very close to the locals of the Gangwu Empire.

In order to be more realistic, the Liver Emperor and others also made some mutated makeup.

"You're welcome, Lord Duke!" The little cabbage crookedly performed a noble salute, the flower spirit temperament is already very good, although after makeup, but the temperament is difficult to drown, resulting in the little cabbage although the action is extremely unprofessional, but it feels full of manners, even some nobles nodded secretly, thinking that this must be a young lady raised in a high-ranking aristocratic family.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the new heir of Southern Dorenkel: Miss Marquis Korinsting, this time our new food and weapons and equipment from Gondolin are provided by this lord, let us welcome her with great respect..."

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers and civilians on the field were stunned for a moment, and then burst into thunderous applause and cheers!!

These days, the new food has completely said goodbye to the fear of famine before, and those foods not only solve the problem of food and clothing, but also let them, the low-level people, have the privilege of tasting the delicious taste of the world, feeling that anything cooked is better than those aristocratic steaks!

The people at the bottom are relatively simple, whoever solves their food and clothing problem is a god, Isabel is also because the prestige of that batch of food has almost reached the highest point of the historical city lord, and now knowing that those foods are actually provided by outsiders in front of them, everyone suddenly has a considerable affection for the little cabbage, an outsider!

However, some high-level nobles are a little puzzled, the south is extravagant, but they have never heard of the wonderful agricultural products of Gondolin over there, they have always thought that those things are researched by the mages, and there are also those weapons and equipment, which can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, and its workmanship is not inferior to the epic suit created by the top dwarf masters.

Nowadays, most of the dwarven craftsmen are concentrated in the north, and they have never heard of a city with such superb forging skills in the south, at least they have not heard of any high-level dwarven masters in Dorenkel, and such a large amount is obviously not something that one or two dwarf masters can create!

But these two doubts are not the focus of their concern now, they are now more concerned with another thing.

"My lord, what do you mean, there are still a large number of survivors in the southern cities like us?"

"Yes!!" Isabel nodded: "The infection in the south is relatively small, there is enough time to resist, and most of the main army of the empire has successfully retreated to the south, cheer everyone, we still have many compatriots in all corners, this disaster is not so terrible, one day we will regain the lost ground and completely defeat this natural disaster!" ”

Although Isabel looked unserious at this time, the content of these words still had an uplifting effect, and all the people immediately cheered!

When those old city lord forces in the secret heard that there were other survivor city forces, they all immediately glanced at each other, and felt that they could move something from other aspects, and they didn't have to continue to fight with women who were so powerful now....

After all, they don't want to face Isabel with such a sharp wrist if they can....

"Your Excellency..... Now that they can come, that... That I.... Can we go south? In the crowd, a former southern businessman asked excitedly.

After hearing that there are many surviving cities in the south, he desperately wants to go back, wanting to know if his family is safe.

"Not for now....." Isabel shook her head.

As soon as these words came out, the scene suddenly froze, and the faces of the people who were originally going to continue cheering suddenly froze.

Isabel explained unhurriedly: "The magic passage is expensive and requires a large number of arcane crystals, and until a low-cost passage is developed, it does not support the teleportation of ordinary people for the time being. ”

Don't support ordinary people? When everyone heard this, they immediately looked at each other, and said secretly: What do you mean by the city lord? Could it be that this is the aristocratic passage where the people have retreated?

"My lord, who do you mean by not being ordinary?" A bear soldier asked angrily.

"Rich man!" Isabel said bluntly: "For the time being, this passage only supports people who can provide a large number of arcane crystals, and I can't do anything about this, after all, our city is not rich in this thing, and I can't win the opportunity for everyone to go to the south." ”

"This ....." everyone looked at each other, and the adult's blunt explanation made many people dispel their doubts, at this time Isabel has a very high prestige, and there is no one who dares to make trouble unreasonably, as long as the explanation is reasonable, everyone will not make trouble, but although the explanation is reasonable, everyone still has an inexplicable sense of grievance, and the enthusiasm just now suddenly dissipated a lot.

"But don't be discouraged, what I said is only temporary!" Seeing that everyone was in a low mood, Isabel smiled and explained: "These adults who have spent a lot of money to come to us are not here to travel, they are here to help us establish a channel of hope!" ”

Hope channel?

This word made everyone look at Isabel with a hint of anticipation, who had turned into a hairball.

"Yes, Hope Passage!" Isabel smiled: "In addition to them, there will be a steady stream of lords with soldiers, who are here to help explore and clear a passage of hope to the south, in the process, we will continue to recover the former city, and will restore the glory of the former Imperial Road!" ”

"Sweep the passages? This ....." Everyone suddenly looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while, go out and face those mutated monsters? Are these southerners crazy? When did it become so kind?

"Of course.... I also encourage our soldiers to get involved! Isabel laughed.

When everyone heard this, their faces twitched, and those bears who were usually hot-tempered were silent one by one at this time, obviously no one present would be willing to face those mutated monsters....

Isabel had expected this scene, but she was not in a hurry, she knew that the people here did not want to face mutant creatures, and this kind of thing could not be coerced, so she could only lure and guide her.....

So she continued: "The current adults will rent the shops here and provide goods for everyone, such as this lord will provide fine handmade cloth and ready-made tailor's clothes, this lord will provide fine leather goods, and some food, salt, sugar, cotton and other daily necessities that we do not have here, and of course there will be some other things, spices, jewelry, and even some unexpected magical items will appear, and our former trade market in Gondolin will be reproduced because of the arrival of these adults!" ”

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this, now there is a shortage of clothes in the city, and the quilts are completely insufficient, and those salt, sugar, and leather products are also in short supply.

But then there were doubts again, and one of the nobles was curious: "But my lord, you just said that these are trading goods, what do we exchange them for?" Previous gold coins? ”

Obviously, now that the Gondolin has completely lost its trade function, and the former currency has been basically deserted, now that the food is evenly distributed, although everyone can eat enough, there is no surplus food to exchange for supplies, how can they trade these foreign goods?

"That's what I'm calling you all here for!" Isabel said solemnly: "Here, I will announce the future centimeter system of Gondolin, and please convey the system announced today to the compatriots who did not show up, and then I will also show the announcement to the audience!" ”

Centimeter system?

"Yes!" Isabel said solemnly: "In the future, everyone's participation in farming, foresting, including soldiers standing guard will not be free, I will reward a certain centimeter according to everyone's contribution, and these centimeters can be used to trade items, I will roughly ..... the details below."
