Chapter 638: A Farce in Front of the City Gate
"This is the ancient city of Sain?" Chen Jing looked at the magnificent city wall in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Unlike the Norton Imperial City, Shining Star City, and Elven King City they had seen before, the walls of this city were covered with large and small scars. The number of scars is a clear indication of how violently the city has been attacked. But even in this case, the walls of the city still stand.
In this seemingly peaceful era, these scars are like medals on the body of veterans, telling of those difficult years.
"Is there some great story about this city?" Su Wanyue asked.
"That's right, this city was not a city in the beginning, but a fortress, and the name of the fortress is Sain. It was once a fortress that never collapsed in the midst of a thousand years of holy war, and it was also the last barrier for the dwarves. Lingyun stood in front of the ancient city of Thane and said softly. In this place, three dwarf kings were buried, and even one of the strongest dwarf kings in history, was also sacrificed in this place. At that time, the dwarf king was not just a dwarf king of the hills, but the king of the entire dwarf clan, who could urge the existence of the two major artifacts of the rock and the heaven-splitting at the same time. As for the dwarven warriors who died in this place, there are countless of them. ”
"I heard Avril talk about the dwarf race, and once mentioned a dwarf king who once made the lord of the demon world not hesitate to sneak attack, could it be that one?" Chen Jing asked.
"That's right, it's him." Ling Yun nodded, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the city wall, "Look! ”
Chen Jing and the others looked in the direction of Ling Yun's fingers, and couldn't help but gasp. Where Ling Yun's fingers swiped were the deepest scars on the city wall, these scars almost ran through the entire city wall, and there was a momentum that completely tore the city wall apart.
"These traces are the traces left by the battle between the dwarf king and the lord of the demon realm at that time. Maybe you can't believe it, at that time, this city wall was also an artifact, an artifact that was almost impossible to appear and was forged by chance. But after that battle, the artifact pattern in the wall was completely destroyed, and it became an ordinary wall. Ling Yun said.
"Is that an exaggeration? The entire wall has become an artifact, which is impossible. Chen Jing said in disbelief.
"This wall also became an artifact by chance. However, it is also the lowest level of the artifact, otherwise it would not have been completely destroyed because of the peak battle between the Dwarf King and the Lord of the Demon Realm. Ling Yun said. Alright, that's all for history, let's go into town! ”
"Entrance fee, one gold coin per person!"
When Ling Yun and the others walked to the city gate, several soldiers with spears stopped in front of them with a smile.
Ling Yun glanced at them and frowned slightly: "When did this soldier defending the ancient city of Sain become this virtue?" ”
The rest of the people can enter the ancient city of Seon at will, but a few of them were stopped, could it be that these guys are planning to find fault?
"Beck, what are you guys doing?" Just as a few ruffians walked in front of Ling Yun, a loud shout suddenly rang out.
Ling Yun raised his eyebrows, and following the prestige, a man with a spear in his hand and bright armor on his body was striding in their direction.
"Ham, you guy, let me be nosy!"
Seeing this soldier striding over, the ruffians who blocked Ling Yun couldn't help but shrink a little, obviously quite jealous of this person. But then they hardened again, apparently relying on something.
"Beck, don't think that you can do whatever you want with the support of a brother-in-law of the city defense chief with the strength of the Holy Domain!" The soldier walked up to Baker and pointed his spear at them.
"What do you mean, Ham?" Looking at the glittering tip of the gun, Baker's forehead couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"It's nothing, it's just that the lord of the city has an order, if anyone finds any soldier who dares to illegally ask for an entry fee at the city gate, he can be arrested immediately, and there is also a bounty to receive! Beck, even if there is a city defense chief behind you, in front of the city lord, you are just as vulnerable! Ham said with a sneer.
"City Lord, he has only been in office for a few days, how dare he ......" Beck, who heard this, his back was wet with sweat.
"Naturally, we don't have to worry about this kind of big thing, but I know now, and my wine money for tonight has already been settled!" The spear in Ham's hand shook, easily knocking down all the people in front of Ling Yun.
"Ham, you're just a fifth-order little warrior, aren't you afraid of my brother-in-law's revenge if you do this?" Beck, who was beaten to the ground, asked angrily.
"Your brother-in-law's revenge, joke! Your brother-in-law, it's hard to protect himself now, where do you have the energy to take revenge on my little character! Ham sneered, took out the rope and tied the men up tightly, and carried them in his hands.
"I'm sorry to have frightened a few people, but for this matter, our city lord will definitely give a satisfactory answer to each one. Now I'm going to send them for interrogation, and they're leaving. Ham bowed slightly to Ling Yun and the others, and then left with a few of them.
"It's a really interesting place, I didn't think we would see such a good show when we first came here." Chen Jing looked at Ling Yun with an inexplicable smile.
"Actually, I also want to know what kind of good things are still in this city." Ling Yun nodded and said.
"Now should be the time for the power of the old and new city lords to alternate, and I remember that this time period is also the time when several princesses and princes of the empire are fighting fiercely for that position. This time, the power of the ancient city of Sain is alternate, and maybe there is their shadow in it. Su Wanyue said with a frown. Ling Yun, I remember you once said that when we went to the Morning Light Forest before, there were those Crown Princes' people staring at us, and now that we have reappeared, what is the possibility that those people are staring at us? ”
"It's very likely, after all, we have entered their sights, and in order to get that position, they can do anything, even if it is to break their heads." Ling Yun said with a frown.
"The person who is secretly peeping at us has appeared again!" Chen Jing frowned and looked in the direction inside the city gate.
"What are you afraid of, the soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth. If they really want to do something, we're not vegetarians! Ling Yun snorted coldly and strode into the ancient city of Sein.
