Chapter 12: The Caravan
Wright naturally caught the caravan, although the speed was much slower than riding Xiao Hei, but at least he would not go the wrong way, not to mention that this way was in a hurry, Wright himself was fine, but the three-headed monster was a little hungry.
Wright had a lot of gold in his hand. spent thousands of gold coins to buy all the goods of two merchants who sold salted fish and southern specialty fruits respectively, so that the sunspot had a delicious meal, and an adult purple-striped black bear had a very amazing amount of food, and most of the three truckloads of salted fish were eaten by the sunspots! Wright felt salty and panicked when he saw it.
Electric and Hairball didn't look down on this salted fish, Wright had to spend money to 'forage' in the caravan to satisfy Electric's appetite, and Hairball's means were even more strange, Wright couldn't think of it, it was a ninth-level demonic beast, and it could actually rely on coquettishness to sell cuteness to beg for food.
With Wright's joining, the large and small merchants and mercenary guards in the caravan are still very welcome, after all, this is a super strong man who can subdue the purple-veined black bear! Even some people who have little knowledge and can't recognize the purple-veined black bear also know the truth that 'a powerful demonic beast may not be large, but a huge demonic beast must be strong'. Such a huge black bear demonic beast must be an eighth-level demonic beast.
The mercenary guards were very happy, such a strong man and the demonic beasts under his command, if it was an enemy, it would naturally be a terrible opponent and could not be defeated. But if it's their own side, then it's much safer, at least those robbers don't dare to come forward to rob when they look at the size of the black bear from a distance. Of course, if they really have the guts, they will probably be shot to death by that big bear!
And most of the merchants are even more pleased that Wright is 'spending a lot of money' in order to fill the belly of the monster, and he has always been willing to spend money on the food and drink of his monster, and he is not short of this little money anyway.
And with some women and children in the caravan, they are generally interested in the fork-tailed civets that are running around and selling cuteness. Although the hairball is the first ninth-level demonic beast, in the hands of its first owner, selling cuteness is the main business. Decades have passed, but the technology is still not rusty. What's more, it is not as tall and majestic as Kuroko, and now the fur ball is only two meters long, and its fur is smooth. The women and children in the caravan were initially afraid of the 'Mighty Warrior's Monster', but soon they played with the 'Big Cat', and every time they were slapped and fed, the furball would squint and deliberately walk past Kuroko. It smells of a variety of delicious foods.
In fact, the hairball also has its own scheming, competing for favor in front of the owner, the peng eagle has no choice, the master raised it is of course closer, but it is no problem to crush a big stupid bear! When a pet still brings its own dry food, it is much better than asking the owner to spend money to feed it.
There was a cheerful air in the caravan, and Wright was in a tent talking to Steward Fez.
Wright and Steward Fez also have a slight friendship, and have dealt with a lot in the homecoming city, and Steward Feth knows the identity of his teacher and gives Wright a lot of services on behalf of the Geer Chamber of Commerce.
"Homecoming City has broken into the Sacred Realm Demonic Beast, and there have been heavy casualties!" Wright was a little surprised, "What about Miss Gabriella?" What's wrong with her! ”
"Deacon Green has long since left Homecoming!" Steward Fez said with a sad face: "It's me, I was almost not eaten by the monster, ninety percent of my property was destroyed, and I was blamed by the above, so now I have to take care of the caravan." "Taking care of the principal's travel to and from the gold caravan is tiring and unsafe, although the chamber of commerce gives a slightly higher reward, but it is far from being as good as the principal's residence in a chamber of commerce, not to mention that the principal's connections in one place are all gone.
Wright looked at the unlucky steward with a smile, "What's the matter, how can you blame you for the siege of the Holy Domain Warcraft?" ”
"When I purchased resources on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce, I bought a bottle of demonic beast blood, and later I learned that it was the blood of the Sanctuary Dragon Clan, and then the Sanctuary Dragon came to the door."
Wright rolled his eyes, although strictly speaking in this matter, the Fez's steward did not have much responsibility, but after all, the involvement was so huge, he was only sent down to take care of the caravan, and did not directly pull it out and execute him, this Geer Chamber of Commerce was enough to take care of him.
"What does the Sanctuary Dragon Clan look like? How did it go back in the end? "Wright is still a little worried about the Sanctuary Demonic Beast's attack on Homecoming City.
"That Sanctuary Dragon Clan has no wings, it should be a 'Tyrannosaurus Rex', it seems to be a little jealous, the damage is not much, and it does not bring a large number of demonic beasts, it is just to break into the Returning City, and then directly attack the station of our Geer Chamber of Commerce, that's it, and more than 2,000 people have died." Steward Fez, who still doesn't seem to have recovered from that incident, seems a little weak. "Back down, it seems that a Sacred Domain powerhouse came forward to let it retreat, but which Sacred Domain powerhouse it is, I don't know!"
Wright thought about it, but digressed the subject and asked Steward Fez about his hometown of Blue Castle.
Sending off the Faith steward, Wright's face was a little uncertain, and when Eliko and Furball arrived in the tent after eating and drinking, they were both startled by Wright's face.
Steward Fez's actual caravan has only been in charge for three months, and this is only his second trip to the Northlands, so he doesn't know much information, like Wright's hometown 'Falling Dragon Castle', Steward Fez doesn't know anything about it.
However, the steward of Fez knew that Viscount Dia Cap, the lord of Fallen Dragon Castle and Wright's distant cousin, had an accident!
About half a year ago, the lord of the Blue Castle, the three-hundred-year-old earl of the Horace family, the Earl of Blue Feng, finally passed away unbearably.
And this old earl, who was very old and had passed all his sons and grandsons, also left a mess, and his two great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson began to compete for the territory and title of Earl of Blue Maple.
In fact, when the old earl fell ill in bed half a year ago, the entire Blue Maple County had become very chaotic. The three members of the Horace family, who were the most likely to inherit the title, began to wrestle with each other. The robbers from all over the country wantonly attacked the traveler caravans and collected their wealth, but the Earl's private army, many city guards in Lanfeng County, were completely unable to go out of the city to clear it. When the Steward of Fez arrived three months ago, he encountered at least three attacks along the way, and this was when the caravan organized by the Gehr Chamber of Commerce was very strong. It wasn't until two months ago that the battle for the earl's succession came to an end, and the entire Lanfeng County calmed down.
Wright took the intelligence file sent by the Steward of Fez and read it carefully.
It is very clearly recorded that Viscount Cap of Fallen Dragon Castle joined the side of Davide Horace among the three heirs more than ten years ago. Two months ago, he entered the Blue Castle with three seventh-level warriors and a sixth-level magician and participated in the civil strife in the Blue Castle!
In the end, the Davide Horace failed, and the last successor to the title of Earl of Horace was Leslie Horace, the youngest of the three heirs. His teacher, a ninth-level Great Magister, made a move at a critical moment and easily suppressed the overall situation.
According to the results announced by the Blue Castle, the 'rebels' have been executed. Of course, this is a big word, according to the information of the Geer Chamber of Commerce, among the five powerhouses on Viscount Cap's side, Viscount Cap himself was killed on the spot, and the sixth-level magician was captured, but because he was a member of the Northland Magician Guild, he would not have to worry about his life if he was not killed on the spot. And the other three seventh-level warriors are nowhere to be found, and they don't know if they were killed by the captives or escaped!
This worries Wright. Viscount Cap, a distant uncle, actually doesn't have much affection for him, and the sixth-level magician may be the Wilmot mage who has some teacher-student friendship with him, but he is fine if he doesn't have to worry about his life. And of the three seventh-level warriors, one should be Captain Lei. And who are the other two?
Wright knew that his father had been at the peak of the sixth level for several years, and he had only started to cultivate his fighting qi after settling in the Falling Dragon Castle, and if his luck was not bad, he might have reached the seventh level. In other words, among the three 'unknown life and death' warriors, there may be his father!
Of course, this is the worst outcome, maybe those strong people are all strong people hired by Viscount Cap, and they have nothing to do with his team members in Fallen Dragon Castle, or maybe his father has escaped although he went to Blue Castle, etc.
"In case my father really has something long and short." There was a faint chill in Wright's eyes, "The Horace family, there is no need to exist anymore!" ”
