Yichen takes us to a bar with no signboard and no other advertisements outside, and as we descend the staircase that is level with the street level to the limestone doors, we can hear the constant noise coming from inside. Yichen knocked on the black iron knocker cast into a serpentine shape, and a small panel slipped open in the middle of the door, and a pair of eyes stared outward, and then disappeared. The entrance opened.

The room far from the entrance has a sweet, mild, intoxicating aromatic smell. At the bar, several male Dark Elves are playing and drinking. Four dark elves play chess on a square table, and the chess pieces are carved into the mistress, the shaman, the sorcerer, the warrior, the ogre slave warrior. Other men happily threw daggers at targets hanging on the wall. A musician plays the harp on a small platform by the western wall. There is also the rattling of dice, the rustling and slapping of cards, and the sound of coins scraping the table as lucky gamblers collect their loot.

"Is it human? The first time I saw a human in Demon Blade City. I looked at the human musicians on the platform in amazement. Oh, it's the NPC slave in this Shadow and Viper bar. Human slaves are very precious and are generally not kept out to avoid injury. Yichen pulled me and led us to the corner to sit down.

The bounty hunter banged on the table to summon the goblin slaves, and the three of them asked for a clear, turquoise, spicy sparkling wine, and I just wanted water.

He explained to his brother, "He never drank alcohol." He flattered me and persuaded me, "It's okay to drink a little in the game." ”

I refused: "No, I don't like the smell of alcohol, and I don't want to have my judgment compromised, even if it's just in the game." ”

Yichen also smiled: "Let him be, don't be reluctant." Then he said to me, "You're still the same." ”

"You're familiar with things here," I asked eagerly, "and it has something to do with the fact that you don't belong to a family?" ”

"It's really hard to say, I warn you!" Yichen blamed the problem on the commandment.

"Ahem," he said, pretending to clear his throat, "I said that I was new to ......the game," and knocked me on the head: "Less nonsense!" ”

"We originally had a family," replied the commandment, honestly, "but it was destroyed." ”

"Extinguished?"

"Yichen and I used to be in a small family, and it didn't take long for another family to attack, killing all the nobles, and the captured civilians and other things belonged to the attacking family. The two of us just happened to sneak out shopping, and we became unaffiliated families. ”

"Well, my original clan was also attacked, I was killed at the time, and the clan's exclusive temple was destroyed. I was resurrected in the temple of the Demon Blade City Academy, and after the resurrection, the family has been destroyed, and I am a family without a family. The bounty hunter chimed in.

"Hey, how could the Dark Elf clan attack each other?"

"You know that families are hierarchical according to strength, and dark elves often fight for status and rank. The family ranking is fixed, and if you want to move up the ranking, you must have a vacant position in the previous family ranking, and the later families will advance one place in order. Therefore, wars between families are usually started by low-ranking families, and the purpose can be for profit or to expand their power, but generally to improve their ranking. "The detailed explanation still has to be Yichen.

"Although I've been fighting martial arts towers for a long time, and I've been on patrol recently, why haven't I heard of anything like this at all?"

"The Iron Law of the Dark Elves: What can't be proven is that it never happened. Therefore, the family that was destroyed will be considered to have never appeared at all, the key is to destroy the door, that is, to cut down all the nobles of the attacked family, I heard that if an attack fails, the attacked family still has a residual noble, and you can ask the ruling council to take action, then the family that did it will be eliminated. However, until now, only some of the small families at the bottom of the ranking have attacked each other a few times, and they have all succeeded. It's not surprising that you don't know. ”

"I see, how are you doing now?"

"Actually, we can choose to rejoin a family and start from the lowest." Yichen picked up the wine glass and took a sip, keeping his mouth shut, wanting to sell Guanzi.

"Hehe, we've joined the Gem Mercenary Regiment." Jie hurriedly spoke, glaring at Yichen.

"The Gem Mercenary Group is the only mercenary organization in Demon Blade City, and it is allowed by Demon Blade City to take missions in the city, as well as outside the city. Several of us are not of high rank, we all work in Demon Blade City, and we have been in the market for a long time, so we are relatively well-informed here. The mercenary group consists of more than 200 male members who have no family affiliation, mainly warriors, rangers, and thieves, and few mages. Yichen snatched it back and said, "There are more than 200 dark elves, which are comparable to the NPC combat power of a medium-sized family, and there are still very few players in the mercenary group, and the future development will be very broad." ”

"The most important thing is that there are no nobles in the mercenary group, the boss of the mercenary group is a man, and we don't have to bow to women and nobles in the mercenary group like we do in the family! Why don't you join us? Yichen tempted me.

"I have a family member, how can I join the mercenary group?" I question.

"Uh......"

"Maybe I can buy you?" The commandment was moved.

"Damn! I'm not a slave. Besides, you're rich, aren't you? ”

"Oops~~~ actually looks down on us! Brethren, take things out and open his eyes! ”

Yichen and Jiejie took out two thin sticks and a few scrolls and placed them on the table, and the bounty hunter untied the matching sword.

"Hmph, I'll show you what treasures we have!" The nostrils of the commandment puffed out.

"These two wands, each of which can hold 50 magic missiles, cost a total of 1,500 gold coins; Fireball, Evasion Detection, Protective Elemental Damage, Level 3 Summoning Monsters, Acceleration and Stealth Orbs, a total of 6 Level 3 spell scrolls cost 2250 gold. We can't use the third-level spell scrolls now, and the first-level and second-level scrolls we bought before have already been used, so let's not talk about it. There was also ......" commandment and took out a thick spell book from his bag.

"Although the blank spell book is only worth 15 gold coins, but my book records all the mage spells from level zero to level two, and every time I copy a new spell to the spell book, it will consume a scroll of this spell, so now my book is more than 7,000 gold coins, and although Yichen's spell book is not as much as I remember, it is also worth more than 6,000 gold coins. And ......" commandment went to his backpack again.

"Come on, don't be wordy about the other bits and pieces." The bounty hunter interrupted the commandment impatiently. "Look at me, the full cuirass on my body is only a bargain worth 200 gold coins, it's awesome here......" he put his sword in front of me.
