Chapter 498: Rushing to Strength (4)

Phocles is one of the eight Lords of the Skyrim Province.

(The nine major cities in the sky, except for 'Xueman', all rely on the border, so they are called the 'Eight Great Territories'.) )

It is located in the southern part of the province and has a warm and comfortable climate. It is the city with the highest vegetation coverage in the sky, and it is also the best place to escape the cold in the long cold winter of the skyline.

But here's one downside: there are so many cemeteries!

Of course, it may be a bit of a mistake to say 'bad' bluntly. After all, much of the reason it has grown to the size it is today is due in large part to these cemeteries.

Centuries ago, Fogres was just a place name. At that time, there were no lords or inhabitants here. There is just a lush woods and a colony of animals that live here. However, in the short centuries it has been affected by numerous wars.

As more people die, more and more graves increase!

The more graves there are, the more monuments there are!

Gradually, grave keepers and inns began to appear. And the four words 'Fogrys' have gradually become famous. Later, it simply became a symbol of the "Hero's Mausoleum" and became a place where many nobles and lords wanted to be buried.

At that time, Phocles was in his prime, and no one would find anything wrong with these cold tombstones. But now, it has clearly said goodbye to its glory, and it is the kind that has been said goodbye for a long time.

Therefore, before deciding to go to Fogrys, Wang Yifan did not consider the problem of 'not being able to find a place to stay'. That's not supposed to be a problem in an out-of-season town like Phocles, is it?

But the reality is...

"I'm sorry, traveler, but our hotel is full..."

"I'm sorry, little brother, but the only room in my house has been rented out by my wife."

"Outlander, don't look at it, I don't have any vacancies here!"

"Hiccup~ Aha, sorry sorry, what did you just ask me... Oh, empty room, hehe, empty room that surely... Not anymore! ”

"I'm sorry..."

"Nope..."

After asking three hotels and six private houses in a row, Wang Yifan heard that the answers were all negative.

Turning around, he couldn't help but look at the empty trunk of the city and was stunned: What do you mean? Am I in the wrong season? Or have the people of this ancient world begun to live a clear life? One avenue, two rows of buildings, and there is not a single empty room. Is this still Frankris?

The afterglow swept over the Phocles guard at the end of the road, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and shook his head and said, "It's not right! Supposedly, the city is full of people who can live, and there should be many people on the road. But this..."

The breeze was gentle, and two dead leaves flew and tumbled, hitting his feet.

He blinked, "yes, there shouldn't be only guards and grass clippings on this road." Hmm~ Not normal! Could it be that my tracks have been exposed, causing all the members of the Dark Brotherhood to squat at the same time? ”

"Woo woo, no way! If that's the case, then they can do it halfway, so why bother to attack and do more? He shook his head to himself, turned silently, and walked in the direction of the north of the city.

"Forget it~ I'd better find a place to settle down first."

……

Half a day later, the Cracktooth Fortress, about a few miles away from Phocles, became Wang Yifan's temporary camp. It wasn't a whim or a fluke. Instead, the choice was a deliberate one.

Why?

For one, it's not far from the Dark Brotherhood's lair. If a member of the team is out, he can ambush him as soon as possible.

Second, the software facilities here are relatively complete, in addition to the necessary bedrooms and kitchens, there are also 'entertainment items' such as forges, workbenches, leather racks, whetstones, etc.

Third, there is a group of orcs available for temporary dispatch. Belch... Of course, only if you succeed in convincing them to accept you.

To sum up these three points, Wang Yifan naturally does not need to think about other (places) anymore.

At noon, Wang Yifan was outputting the salmon steak on the table and said to the other side: "What I just said... Do you understand? ”

At this time, he was sitting in the second-floor dining room of the Cracktooth Fortress, facing five orcs covered in hemp rope.

One of them said aggrievedly: "Don't underestimate people! Although we are orcs, we still have this understanding. Isn't it just to accompany you in the play, what's so difficult about this? ”

"Shh

Wang Yifan raised his eyebrows to one side and teased: "Since you are so smart, why didn't you choose to run away just now." If you choose to escape, you might be better off than you are now! ”

The orc was full of white hair, his face was painted with a horizontal red color, and his mouth was full of turned fangs, so he turned his head and said: "The home on which I live has been invaded, how can I, as the leader of this home, choose to escape!" ”

As he spoke, he seemed to feel uncomfortable again, raised his head and glared at Wang Yifan, "What do you think we orcs do?!" ”

Wang Yifan slowed down his movements, and said as a matter of course: "Orcs! Otherwise, what else can it be? ”

The old orc listened to it for a moment, and Xu consciously asked a stupid question, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Hmph! Today I am not as good as others, and I have nothing to say. You asked us to act with you, and I agreed. But when you're done with things, what do we get? ”

Wang Yifan groaned: "This... I didn't think about it. Well, I can promise you that when I'm done dealing with my own affairs, I won't leave your men alone, how about it? ”

The old orc was furious and struggled, "Damn Nord pig, is this what you call justice and fairness?" No! If that's the case, I'd rather choose to be desperate! Come on, you have what it takes to let me go! I'm going to show you what 'true anger' is! ”

Wang Yifan leaned back slightly, holding the dinner plate in one hand and the wine bottle in the other, avoiding the other party's spit.

After a while, he seemed to think of something because of the other party's white hair and white beard, and pouted: "I know that I can't beat you and you're not honest, with your IQ, it's no wonder that you can only stay on the border for the rest of your life." ”

The old orc originally had some scruples, but when he heard this, he couldn't control it at the moment: "You... Yes!!! Let me go! If you have a kind, let me go! I'm going to kill you, let me kill you!! Yes!!! ”

For orcs, Wang Yifan actually doesn't hate them. But perhaps it's because the orcs of this world have an innate hatred for the human race. That's why he's a little rebellious.

For example, he was thinking about 'how to help these orcs', but what he said was something else.

"Shout, if you shout out your throat, no one will save you."
