Chapter 912: The Slave Market
In this regard, Li Ran shook his head and said: "This is not the case, about the Sunset Mountains, before we went, we also asked other people, they said similar to Nailuoren, maybe the city we went to is a bit remote, and the people inside know less about the Sunset Mountains, plus we are new to the city, maybe some locals don't want to tell us."
"Then can you still teleport to the last big city and then teleport to another place?" Wu Tongtong said with some worry. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, even Li Ran was a little depressed and said: "The teleportation array leading to the desert area at the last station is a one-way teleportation, and I suspect that it is likely to be a random teleportation, so for now we can only take one step at a time."
I didn't expect it to be so troublesome just after taking the first step, and at this time, all the teammates couldn't help but feel worried about their next trip, especially when they learned that they had been deceived out of the city by several people asking for directions in the past few days, and wanted to rob them outside, the teammates showed even more surprise.
Fortunately, they all knew that Li Ran had almost brought their best warriors now for this trip to the Sunset Mountains, plus the titles of the five of them, the number of troops that could be summoned was by no means something that ordinary thieves could rob.
At this moment, Li Ran spoke again: "Don't look at it, we can still go offline to talk to you now, it may not work after a while."
Hearing Li Ran say this, all teammates, including Zhao Lanlan, couldn't help but ask curiously.
At this time, Qian Hui said the reason, it turned out that although they didn't know how to go to the Sunset Mountains, but through the introduction and experiment with the local sand people, the desert where they are now, including the places they may have to go in the future, and even some places in the Sunset Mountain Range, are very likely to be cursed places, except for the danger, it has no impact on other people, but as players, they can't go offline inside, so even after the offline rest, their characters are still inside, and they must be protected by other people.
"In this way, don't you have to take turns going online, otherwise it will be too dangerous" Hearing this, Zhou Xun and the others couldn't help but gasp and said.
At this time, Li Ran sighed lightly and said: "It seems that the preparation is still insufficient, I would have brought more people if I knew it, fortunately, the guards I brought can delegate action, otherwise it will be really troublesome."
After chatting for a while, everyone left the lounge, and the next morning, Li Ran and his teammates went online one after another, opened the window of the inn and saw that there was a piece of yellow sand everywhere they looked, and by asking a sandman girl, they learned that there was a sandstorm last night.
"Didn't you see it, the sandstorm blew so hard last night, I heard that many people didn't come back outside, if it wasn't for the city lord to put up a windproof curtain in time, our small city might be over" It seems that this sand girl is also a person with a sharp mouth, seeing that these people ordered a lot of food, she also said with a smile on the side.
In this regard, Tang Shijiao smiled and said: "It seems that you city lord are really willing, although this place is not big, but it will cost a lot of magic crystals to set up such a large magic windproof screen."
At this time, the sand girl said with a smile: "I see that you are from afar, although our city is small, but it used to be a ruin, the magic windproof screen is left in ancient times, and its practical use is not the magic crystal at all, but the original crystal, which happens to be our specialty here."
Although Li Ran and the others had never heard of this kind of spadro, there were many strange things in the third world, and they didn't care too much about it, but they were a little curious about the structure of this magic windproof screen, which could be operated without a magic crystal, but thinking that this must also be the secret of this city lord, they didn't want to explore it too much.
So next, while eating the specialties here, they asked the sand girl some questions, and the little girl saw that the other party gave a lot of tips, and she also answered all questions in 1510.
"The sunset mountain range you are talking about can't be the Chicamis Mountain, I heard the adventuring group on the road say that thousands of kilometers away to the north, at the end of the desert, there is a Chicamis Mountain, even if it is riding on the huge Yalu Eagle and flying in the highest sky, it is impossible to see the edge at a glance" Hearing Li Ran and the others asking, the little girl in white thought about it and suddenly spoke.
"Mount Chicamis?" Li Ran muttered to himself with some curiosity.
At this time, the little girl also hurriedly said: "Chicamis is our dialect here, and it means the place where the red wheel falls."
Hearing the little girl's words, knowing that Chilun was the name of the third rising sun in the sky for the people of the Sand Clan, Li Ran and the others couldn't help but look at each other, and confirmed from each other's eyes that this Chicamis Mountain might be the Sunset Mountain they were looking for, but what the people here saw was only one of the peaks, so they called it Chicamis Mountain.
With this clue, they finally determined their goal, and after receiving some tips, the Sand girl also kindly reminded: "You won't go there, then you have to be careful, I heard that it is very dangerous there, and this road alone is dangerous, you have to pass through several forbidden places, and there are several ranger camps." I've only heard those adventurers say once or twice, and very few of them make it back alive."
Li Ran and the others also smiled at this, and left here after asking her some more things.
From the mouth of the Sand Clan girl just now, Li Ran and the others had already learned that they had mentioned the name of the adventure group in the Sunset Mountains in this inn before, and what they were going to now was the slave market in this city, because in this city, all the mercenary groups and adventure group headquarters were located here, and if they could, Li Ran also wanted to hire one or two people to lead the way.
Although the desert and the snowy region are at two extremes, they are both extremely harsh places, and it is difficult for Li Ran and them to find the right path without the locals leading the way.
And the so-called mercenary groups and adventurers here, in fact, have another identity, that is, horse thieves and marauders, in addition to digging ruins everywhere for gold coins, they are usually hired by the client to complete some tasks similar to escorting, but once they feel that it is profitable, they are also very likely to put the butcher's knife on the head of the client, not to mention meeting other teams that are usually not in harmony in the field, so the slave market here is not short of previous adventurers and mercenaries.
I don't know if it's too far away from the Empire, but everyone here with some status, although they can also recruit guards, is more accustomed to calling them slaves, including non-humanoid creatures.
As soon as they arrived here, the unique smell of Shamin and some of the unique residents here made Li Ran and the others frown slightly, but fortunately, they were not pampered people in the past few days, including Qian Hui and Phantom Bingnan, who also quickly adapted, staring at a pair of big eyes, curiously looking at the noisy crowd and all kinds of strange creatures around them.
On the whole, there are still the most sand people here, these humans who have lived in this desert since their ancestors, although they are used to calling themselves sand people, but they look exactly the same as ordinary humans, but their body seems to be thinner, and their skin is rougher, but there is no shortage of strong people.
And the reason why they are accustomed to distinguishing themselves from ordinary alien Terrans is actually more due to their pride, because they believe that they have a stronger body than ordinary Terrans, not to mention their thin stature, but they have surprising explosive power, which can be fully reflected in those desert rangers.
Although these desert rangers, except for the mounts under them, the equipment on their bodies is relatively simple, but they are powerful explosive. Coupled with their giant scimitar that has been soaked into sand gold and made with a unique process, they can easily split even the armor of Terran heavy warriors.
Of course, in addition to these Sand warriors, who account for the largest number of them, there are many people of other races here, including half-orcs and some barbarian warriors who are accustomed to deserts, as well as desert giants that can rarely be seen in other places, and some strange inhabitants like gerbils and hedgehogs.
To be honest, except for the few desert giants, these sand warriors and those barbarian warriors who are accustomed to the desert are not very powerful compared to the guards led by Li Ran, and after watching it for a long time, the most powerful ones are only at the level of top-level warriors.
But Li Ran will never underestimate them because of this, you must know that this is a desert, these desert people have a unique advantage, if it is in the desert outside the city, even if it is a top-level Terran warrior, it will not necessarily be the opponent of a high-level Sandman warrior here.
In addition to looking at the scenery and environment along the way, Li Ran and the others were attracted by the strange creatures imprisoned in the magic cages on the street.
The ferocious and swift sand wolf, the desert giant scorpion as strong as a fierce lion, the giant poisonous worm as strange as a stone, the dormant pseudo-monster like a mess of mud, and even the desert dragon beast whose strength has reached the super level and seems harmless, but in fact has an extremely violent temper, all opened the eyes of Li Ran and the others.
In addition to these, Li Ran and the others also saw the slaves and monsters who were being sold on the high platform, including the monsters in these cages they had seen before, and there were many Sand warriors, including the powerful Sand Lizard Cavalry and Desert Giants, all of which were sold here, and the most of them were those young Sand Tribesmen girls dressed in white.
After walking around for a while, Li Ran and the others found the adventurer hall that the little girl said in the inn before, and after inquiring, after learning that the adventurer team that the little girl said was no longer in the city, through the service staff here, Tang Zhi stepped forward and issued a commissioned task to hire a guide.
