Boimbru is a very delicate town, which is now delicate and neat, and at the same time has a gradual sense of age on top of the architectural style, which is incompatible with the rugged grandeur of the northern peoples. From the Dark Ages to the establishment of the Pender Empire, scholars who have been exiled or wandered to this snow-covered wilderness for four hundred years are strict not only with themselves, but also with their dwellings. They gave the rudiments of Boynbru, as did the name – in Old Pandis, Boynbru means "white dwelling place of knowledge". It's hard to imagine that these crepe scholars, and the followers who followed them—the forerunners of today's famous Black Spear Knights—would be among the first to fight against the Misty Mountain Tribe. The Misty Mountains army may have invaded this delicate town more often than Sarion and the Empire had fought on the plains of Callindern, and of course, they were crushed under the walls almost every time. After the lords of the North broke away from Sarion and founded Ravenston, Gregory I realized the value of the scholars who lived in the frontier lands and founded the Royal Academy around them. His eldest son, Gregory II, who later ascended the throne, was the first graduate of the academy. At this point, Boimbru established himself as the absolute academic center of the North. Before the establishment of the Dragon Knight Academy in Ryan, the Royal Academy of Poimbru had always been the best choice for the children of the nobility.

Kia had only seen a sketch of Boynbrough's city in books, and it was the only one from fifty years ago, and he could still see Boinbru's delicate appearance. And now the Boinbru in front of him was clearly very different from the brittle and yellowed page, and the urn outside the city gate was as hideous as a garrison beast. Fifty years ago, there was no such term as "urn city", but it was the scholars of the Royal Academy who first introduced this type of fortification into the military concept, and made drastic changes to Boynbru - arching a semi-elliptical arc outside the continuous city walls, and then erecting a strict pheasant moat, which could further expand the range of the shooter's attack and provide effective cover. No well-trained commander would allow his troops to rush into the Urn City, or they would be greeted with a devastating blow of three hundred and sixty degrees without any dead ends—something that had taken the Misty Mountain people nearly a decade to realize.

Eshu stood beside Kia and looked up at the Ice Cliff Banner fluttering at the head of the city. Under the banner, Sir Ranmarok looked coldly at the two young men: "Tell me what you mean!" ”

"We are Ravenston's mercenaries, and we have come to Poimbro on the orders of Viscount Ivanles." Essho shouted.

"Pass!" Ranmaroke did not let his guard down.

Esher glanced at Wren: "What pass?" ”

"This." Wren untied a token from his waist and tossed it to Estheus, "Livingston issues a pass for mercenaries, and in times of war, mercenaries need to show this to get permission to enter and exit. ”

"It seems that the situation is not optimistic." Kia whispered, "Poynbrough entered martial law so early. ”

"It's good that you're not late." Eshur held the token alof. After seeing the flying ravens inscribed on the token, Ranmarok nodded and made a gesture: "Let them in!" ”

The gates rumbled in front of Estheus, and the group entered, passing through three gates in quick succession before entering the outer city of Boimbru. At this time, Kia noticed that in addition to the outer urn city built on the outside of the city wall, Boinbru also adopted a triple ship-shaped inner urn city on the inside, further extending the depth of attack and defense. He was suddenly glad that Poynbru's remote and treacherous geography had prevented Sarion from using it as a stepping stone to attack Livingston. With the existing scale of war on the Pander Continent, only one outer urn city is enough to cope with the siege of a group army of 10,000 people, and the scale of the multi-ship inner urn city can theoretically be five times or even larger than that of the outer urn city, but except for the ability to reproduce and its strong Misty Mountain tribes, there is no known ethnic group that can organize an army of sixty or seventy thousand people every year. Out of habit, Kia subconsciously regarded Poimbru as an imaginary enemy, but he soon discovered that the city's defenses were completely outside of the military system he had studied, and any known siege methods were difficult to understand. Until they entered the outer city, Kea couldn't think of an effective way of fighting.

Ranmaroke stood at the exit of the last urn and waited for them. He was faintly disappointed in his heart, and waited for half a month before waiting for a small force of less than thirty people - they were not even regular troops. Although the ability to traverse the snowy area that has swallowed up many search and rescue troops can prove that this mercenary force has a few brushes, but rather than the strong but limited living combat power, Ranmarok prefers to see a baggage force full of supplies. "What's going on along the way? Why isn't there any other team coming but you? What's the news on Ryan's side? He asked.

"The raiding forces of the Misty Mountains have completely blockaded the eastern region." Esher said.

"The rabble? Just by them? Ranmarok frowned and glared at Esher, "Then how did you cross the Vaal Snowfield?" ”

"We've routed a raiding squad." "Leading them was a man in a white wolf's skin. ”

"We robbed him of his white wolf skin, so we didn't get attacked again for the rest of the journey." "But the white wolf skin ......," he duly added, "but the white wolf skin," he hesitated, but decided to tell the truth, "and was taken away by our captives as they fled." ”

"White wolf skin ......" as if someone had punched him hard, Ranmarok's face twisted violently, and gloomy dark clouds surged deep in his eyes. That man is the honorary guardian of the Omenwolf Wolves. Being able to defeat the raiding team led by him, and knowing the traditions of the natives of the Misty Mountains, you have some skills and knowledge. ”

A soldier hurried over and whispered a few words in Ranmarok's ear. Ranmarok was furious: "Tell him, no way! ”

"Lao Tzu is going out of the city today, you can't stop me!" A neutral male voice came from afar, with a thick Sarion accent. Kea's voice was familiar for a moment, and he tried to remember if he had ever spoken to its owner. But his thoughts were interrupted by Ranmaroke's louder voice: "Lao Tzu doesn't have the ability to stop you from leaving the city, but he still has the ability to lock you up in the urn city!" Boinbru is not the place for you to do whatever you want! ”

"Grass, aren't you just worried about letting me out, and you, the military commander, can't explain to the below?" The man said contemptuously, "When did Ranmaroch also become a victim of bureaucracy?" As he spoke, he had already come to the front of everyone, and after seeing the face of the person who came, Kea's heart "chuckled": Kenrico! How did he end up here?
