Chapter 61: The Landlord's Ambition

With the addition of this escort team, the original plan to detour through the Silver Pine Forest naturally did not need to be carried out, and everyone directly chose to cross the Hillbride Hills, so that they could reach Dalaran more quickly.

Song Zheng naturally couldn't ask for this, he had always been worried that he would encounter the attack of syndicate thieves and the Church of the Curse again on the road, and if he could make a point to reach Dalaran, then he would be in a safe state as soon as possible.

Song Zheng originally wanted to talk to those knights, but those guys just hurried away without saying a word, or looked around vigilantly, which made him quite speechless, and could only place his affection on the scenery along the way.

However, there is nothing alluring about the Hillbride Hills, and along the way there are farms in addition to dense forests, which have taken humans hundreds of years to carve out from the claws of many wild beasts, and are the source of life for many people in southern Lordaeron.

Today, the people of the area are still working hard, and every year they open up some new fields in the wilderness to further expand the cultivated area.

In this way, the entire human kingdom continued to expand year by year, from the Araso Empire, which was originally limited to the Arathi Highlands, to the entire eastern continent.

On the whole, the power of mankind has been constantly rising, of course, at the cost of the original Arathso Empire, which was divided into seven different kingdoms due to excessive expansion and internal contradictions, and these kingdoms still have deep contradictions with each other.

At night, for the sake of safety, the group did not rush, but chose to rest and spend the night on a large farm.

Because of Gianna's status, their group naturally received good preferential treatment.

Through the conversation with the farmers on the farm, Song Zheng also learned some information about these farms.

The farm in front of me alone has nearly 500 farmers, and they have used these farmers to form a patrol team of nearly 200 people, not only to deal with the invasion of wild beasts, but also to defend against all kinds of thieves.

The most important building on the farm is the granary, which is made of huge stones, which can be used as a fortress in addition to storing grain, and if the farm is attacked, everyone will gather in the granary to defend it.

Therefore, the whole farm actually has a good combat power.

Song Zheng asked about some cultivation conditions, and found that the cultivation level of these farms was actually not high, and they were still in a very primitive and rough farming stage, and they didn't even know how to apply fertilizer, and the output of grain was also limited.

"I don't know if I can use those agricultural technologies on the earth in this world......" Song Zheng secretly thought, although he didn't know much about agriculture, but some basic principles were still very clear.

If you have the opportunity in the future, you can become a farmer, and then enjoy some landlord fun, and maybe even subvert the agricultural level of this world.

However, as soon as he thought of the next undead catastrophe crisis and the cataclysm launched by Deathwing, Song Zheng suddenly lost interest in agriculture...... In this world where the crisis of extinction can break out at every turn, being a landlord is not a good choice, and you may go bankrupt at any time.

By the time it was dark, the team had already set off, and along the way, I don't know if the deterrent power of these guards was too strong, or if it was the luck of their own group, when they spent several days through the Hillbride Hills, they did not encounter any thieves, but once encountered wolves while crossing the jungle.

However, in front of these fierce guards, the number of nearly a hundred hungry wolves was slaughtered before they could hold out for ten minutes, and there were only more than a dozen guards who did it, Song Zheng followed behind desperately trying to make up for the knife, but unfortunately because these guys killed too quickly, he only had the experience of three wolves.

After a few days, the terrain ahead had flattened, and the Black Forest, which stretched for hundreds of miles at every turn, was becoming less and less common, and villages began to appear on the roadside, and the number of pedestrians on the road began to increase.

"Okay, the front already belongs to Dalaran's territory, so it's relatively safe." Gianna breathed a sigh of relief, apparently also worried about another attack on the road.

"This is where Dalaran belongs?" Song Zheng couldn't help but be very surprised by this.

He originally thought that Dalaran was just a city, but now it seems that the territory of the Dalaran Kingdom is quite vast.

"Yes, but the small village here may not have any obvious border signs, and when you get to the town ahead, there will be a violet sign of Dalaran." Gianna laughed.

Maybe it was getting closer and closer to Dalaran, Song Zheng even saw the figure of the mage in the small village on the side of the road, and even the farmers looked a little more elegant, and in that relatively large town, there were several shops selling magic goods, and the prices were far cheaper than those in Nanhai Town.

Because of the momentum of Song Zheng and his party, soon a patrol team came forward to investigate.

However, as soon as Gianna handed out a badge from the carriage, the patrolling soldiers immediately bowed and saluted, and then quickly avoided the side.

Another day passed, and when they had crossed a hill, the scene before them was clear.

Ahead is a vast desert plain, and at the end of the field of vision, a towering tower plunges into the sky, like a brilliant jewel in the sunlight, refracting dazzling light from time to time.

There are also a large number of beautiful towers around it, which emit all kinds of brilliant light in the sun, and like stars and moons, they surround the tallest and most magnificent tower in the center.

And beneath these towers are white buildings, scattered like pearls on the plains.

"It's beautiful!" Song Zheng couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration on horseback.

The city of Dalaran is indeed the most dazzling jewel of the human kingdom, and the buildings alone are already beautiful, so it is no wonder that the adventurers who travel around have a special admiration for the city of Dalaran.

"You can only see the beauty of the city here, and you will only feel its prosperity when you enter it, and as long as you have been in this city, you will never want to leave." Gianna and Bridget had also come out of the carriage and looked out with joy at the city of Dalaran in the distance.

"Eleven days ......" Song Zheng muttered to himself in his heart, this is the time it took to reach Dalaran from Nanhai Town, and everyone is still riding horses.

If you walk, you will have to walk for a month or two......
