Not counting the garden area north of the river, Walter Harbour is not very large. In addition, the situation was urgent, and the group did not delay for half a minute on the road. It didn't take long for Barrett to appear in his field of vision, a different building from the one he had traveled along the way.

The administrative district is the area most often seen by dignitaries and dignitaries in Port Volter, in addition to the garden area. Naturally, the qiē here is very different from the civilian area and the dock area. Whether it is buildings, roads or roadside services, all reflect the dignity of the aristocracy.

What's more, the port 'town' of Walter has enjoyed peace for almost a hundred years. Not to mention that it has not experienced any baptism of war, even pirates rarely come to visit here.

With the continuous increase of the successive generations of "Golden Thorn Bird" viscounts and those vacation nobles, even if it is not a foothold, it also reveals a full of comfort and leisure. The most typical proof of this is the low enclosure that surrounds the borough, a wall that is a man tall and seems to be able to be climbed silently at any moment by the nimble wanderer. Even if it is a common admit, it is not difficult to climb the wall without the help of tools.

At the same time, the marble dome tiles on the top of the wall, which are as delicate as the carved balustrades of the courtyard, and the winding reliefs on the wall like vines, are full of the artistic mood of those empty and leisurely aristocrats.

Even in the darkness of the night, the qiē in front of you can still produce rich light and shadow effects and virtual and real changes in the moonlight. Barrett knew that if he waited until the dark sunlight illuminated the world, he would probably give people another unique artistic expression.

Barrett shook his head at the sight in front of him: "Pretty is beautiful, but as a wall." It's just too substandard. ”

The main job of the wall is to separate the inside and the outside. Protect the safety of the owner within the walls. As for the retouching effect, art form and so on, they are all dispensable details. But the wall in front of me is the best embodiment of putting the cart before the horse.

"That's what Lord Viscount said. But he couldn't resist the meaning of the big people who wanted to come. I also have to spend a lot of money every year on this useless thing. Captain Warburton, who was leading the way, sighed and said.

From Captain Warburton's words, Barrett could sense the large amount of money associated with pleasure. It seems to be a way for the Etasia Kingdom to consume the strength of the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird".

In a sense, it's a bit like the Middle Ages. A so-called "attendance account" system in Pacific island countries. The most fundamental idea of this system is to consume as much as possible the financial resources of the feudal princes.

It's just that there he ordered the princes everywhere to send their sons and wives to the capital as hostages, and at the same time the lord himself had to go back and forth on the road. The more important princes must have a certain guard of honor when they travel, which cannot be reduced or sloppy, and the more powerful the princes, the more exaggerated the size and pomp of their honor guards.

Here, however, the lords below are forced to invest heavily in art, in the form of subjective feelings. Let them be poor and luxurious for the sake of the so-called aristocratic decency. and not spend limited resources on strengthening themselves.

It can be said that as long as any lord with ideals (ambitions) and ambitions, if not hated this kind of behavior, at least from the bottom of his heart. In a sense, this has become a battleground between lords and vassals.

Barrett didn't think he was alone in the smart man who could hear this from Captain Warburton's words. Faced with this strange situation, he inevitably muttered in his heart: 'This kind of contradiction between nobles seems to be inconvenient to declare!' Although I know Mr. Warburton, you may have an extraordinary relationship with Viscount Christol of the Golden Thorn Bird in private. But don't you think there's anything wrong with such an obvious behavior? ’

At the same time, Barrett remembered the new Boram Castle he had seen in the city of Poitou. And the old butler Craigna's vague statement that said half left and half left.

Combined with Captain Warburton's blunt words, Barrett connected Craig's unspeakable, helpless, and undesirable words. The clouds that had been blinding him seemed to be blown away by a fresh wind, and he was truly aware of the undercurrents beneath the calm waters of the Norhan Kingdom.

'Alas! It seems that after a few months of real life, my original political sensitivity seems to have been weakened a lot! Speaking of this, Barrett shook his head helplessly, "Maybe it's because the Norhan Kingdom in my heart is still the Norhan Kingdom more than 2oo years ago!" After a country has temporarily lost an external threat, it is bound to spend its experience on infighting......

Barrett, whose guess seemed to be getting closer and closer to the truth, immediately became preoccupied. I walked into the special entrance to the administrative area as if I was following the flow. Step through the pillars, foreheads, and eaves with sharp and angular grooves, roll killing, and other round carvings, bas-relief marble doors. Barrett finally saw the borough in its entirety. The architecture here is full of vitality and admiration for beauty – the quality of the materials and the colors of the shapes and colours, as well as the art of painting and sculpture contained in the building itself, are immensely impressive.

But in the open space between the buildings, the ragged refugees and the poor. But it completely wiped out the artistic atmosphere that might have existed in the original zài. These poor people, who are close to each other, look as black and oppressive as the dirt in the winter countryside. At the same time, there was a disgusting stench.

Awakened by the stench of his world, Barrett looked around warily for a moment. Later, he praised it as if nothing happened: "It seems that most of the residents of the slum are here." The Viscount is really interested in these civilians under his protection! ”

"That's right! Not just registered residents of civilian areas. There are still a lot of refugees from the docks! Captain Warburton touched his ear as he spoke, "But it's not easy to manage so many people in the borough!" When I first came in, it was to deal with those malicious troublemakers, and it took a lot of effort on our security team and the Viscount's direct guard. ”

"Malicious troublemakers? I can imagine in this chaotic situation. The disaster caused by the guy who wants to take advantage of the fire. "Say so on your lips. But Barrett had another thought in his heart: 'Among the guys who are accused. There will be some robbers, but I think it's more members of the thieves' guild! From the previous words, it can be seen that the Viscount of "Golden Thorn Bird" seems to have been building momentum for himself all along! Then this crisis, as much as possible to consume the uncontrollable factors in his territory, I am afraid that it is his best choice at the moment. ’

While Barrett was thinking, the Warburton captain in front immediately asked, "Mr. Boreham." I now formally invite you to participate in a possible battle for the defense of the Borough of Volta. ”

"Since I faced this monster one-on-one before, and now that I have so many comrades-in-arms, do you think it is possible for me to escape with my tail between my legs?" Barrett asked rhetorically, raising an eyebrow.

The player receives a mini-area quest: "Pokulug's Horror Nightmare: Walter's Last Bastion." The system prompt "The system will release the ...... according to the player's table after the mission is over" sounded in Barrett's ears.

"Then from now on we are comrades-in-arms. Wait a minute, I'll give you a better defense zone. Speaking of this, Captain Warburton was a little embarrassed, "Originally, Mr. Boreham, you had just experienced such a battle, and this kind of thing should not be bothered to you anymore." However, the current manpower in the administrative district is really short, can you temporarily help to take care of the current law and order? ”

"I guess that's fine. Do I look so fragile?" Barrett asked with a smile. In his opinion, since he has already arrived at the other party's territory, he should take on some of the work he can! Maintaining a relatively good relationship with the authorities is very necessary for mercenaries and adventurers who are out and about.

"Then I'll leave it to you here." Captain Warburton immediately shook Barrett's hands and said, "Alas! Most of the men in the prime of life have been organized to strengthen the walls of the district. Most of the people who stayed here were the elderly, women and children. We are worried that in the previous cleanup, there will be fish that have slipped through the net. If no one is watching, something might really happen. ”

Barrett smiled and shrugged, "I'll do my best." It's just hope that those fish slip through the net. Don't be tougher than the previous monsters. ”

"Nope! Absolutely not! Those guys definitely can't compete with the monsters before them. Captain Warburton muttered, "I wish I never saw an ugly monster again tonight." Otherwise, eighty percent of the administrative districts are ......"

"Sir, I think your wish is about to be frustrated. Based on our previous experience. There are a lot of disgusting monsters. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from the side of the two. Barrett turned his head excitedly, and immediately saw a familiar face - Rielly.

Barrett, who saw his companion, immediately said excitedly, "Oh my God! It's great to see you guys. Looks like the big guys are getting out of those damn fishmen......"

Then Barrett began to speak incoherently: "You must not know what happened to me before. Damn the fish-men, the Storm Lord, and the Storm Wizard. The two clickers crackled and grabbed out of the shopping street outside the hotel......"

"We've seen that. There is a nice 'observation deck' on the second floor of the Fortune Inn. We had a great show tonight! ”。

"You're interested!" Barrett, who glared at his employer, sighed for his previous wolf bèi cousin: "But in that case, if you rush to help, I think it will be even more troublesome." ”

"Although I know Barrett, you're telling the truth. But why do I always feel the urge to punch you in the face now! ”

"What nonsense are you telling the truth!" Even Lalu, who had been silent, couldn't help but complain.

Barrett pressed down and touched Lalu's head: "You guys I just said don't include you cats!" Ela can still help if you show your strength. ”

Lalu, who pushed Barrett's palm away, glared at him angrily: "Don't use this method of coaxing children, you know that I am already an adult." ”

"I didn't expect you and your teammates to meet here, Mr. Boreham." Captain Warburton was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Forget it! I won't bother you with the reunion. I'll arrange someone else to take care of the security work here. ”

Of course, Captain Warburton wasn't so polite to everyone in the borough. However, in his opinion, judging by Barrett's previous appearance. can afford such a courtesy.

Barrett also understands the kindness of Captain Warburton. But he knew better if he had enjoyed the privilege in advance now. I'm afraid that I will leave a bad impression on the other party: "No need to find someone anymore!" Since my companions are here, the security of this area will be accepted by us for the time being! With such a group of people here, I don't think there will be anyone who is not afraid of death to come to find trouble. ”

Captain Warburton's face immediately smiled: "Then I'll leave it to you." ”

"This gentleman forgot to tell you, wait a minute, the enemy who attacked here is probably the kind of monster you discussed earlier. There are a lot more of those guys than there were the fishmen in the beginning. They were the headquarters of several large chambers of commerce in the docklands. ”。

"Are you sure you're telling the truth?" Captain Warburton's face changed.

"Damn! I will report this to the Viscount immediately. Oh my God, how could this be......"

Before he could finish speaking, Captain Warburton ran all the way and disappeared from the player's field of vision. It seems that he went to his own commander to report the sudden situation.

"A monster horde that is larger than the number of fishmen." Barrett touched his chin and looked at his companion with some dissatisfaction: "If that's the case, you should choose to stay in place with the guards in the Rich Years Hotel." A breakout operation like this is just too risky. ”

"How do you know we didn't hold on to the spot.".

Barrett, who seemed to think of something, widened his eyes: "Is it because you are here because ......?"

Before Barrett could finish speaking, "That's right! We have just been resurrected from the temple now. Fortunately, the resurrection stone was used in the city. Otherwise, I don't know how long I'll be waiting! ”

, and then said: "Several of us committed suicide on our own initiative later, but there is no problem. But the noodles were caught by the monster at that time. So there's no way to recover it for the time being. ”

"You're saying the noodles were eaten by that four-petaled monster." As he spoke, Barrett couldn't help but shudder.

Rielly touched her already goosebumpy arm, "Even if it wasn't eaten, I think it would be pretty much the same." Anyway, he can't get out of the temple right now. ”

To be consumed by that disgusting monster is a feast for the senses that is full of impact for everyone. It's just that not everyone can afford that kind of surprise. Obviously, the halfling wanderer in the team didn't look like he could step out of the shadows for a short time.

After meeting his teammates, Barrett had a lot of questions in his mind. But now he can only pick up the most important question: "What is going on?" According to the security team, as an industry under the name of the goddess of wealth and commerce, the garrison strength of the Rich Years Hotel should not be bad! ”

"The garrison of the hostel is not bad. But there are too many of those monsters. Moreover, the toxins on their claws and sharp teeth are not something that ordinary antidotes can fight. Rielly let out a sigh of relief.

"Consumed alive by toxin?" Barrett frowned.

"Yes! Whether it's bloodletting, pulling out poison, if it's an herb or an antidote. None of them seemed to be able to do anything against that toxin. ”

Just as the forgetful jì were exchanging the information they had obtained. Immediately, a bell rang from the center of the borough - the lookout on the tower had already appeared, and the enemy was about to be killed.

The armed forces of the districts were quickly organized by the authorities. Barrett and his party were placed on the defensive line in the southwest, waiting for the monster to come.

With the sound outside, the footsteps of the miscellaneous outside the fence got closer and closer. There were also bursts of muffled chants within the walls. The borough is not only the administrative center of Port Volta, but also the religious center of Port Volta. Walter, who could not afford to build a religious district. The temples of the various churches are located here.

High priest in a distant temple. The courage of the warrior is being evoked on the altar. He stretched out his arm and swept around. The light shining on the altar is that of Viscount Christol, the "Golden Thorn Bird", standing on the tower of the town hall. Boost the morale of the defenders below with a shiny magic cloak – the Cloak of Advanced Courage will immulate all comrades within a mile radius from fear and fuel their inner fighting instincts.

A tall dragon man wearing a robe emblazoned with the insignia of a platinum dragon god tossed pale yellow feathers into the air. Beneath the glittering feathers, everyone heard a dragon roar that only they could understand, coming from afar, and their skin was now covered with a layer of platinum luster—this was the blessing of Bahamut, with the help of the power of the platinum dragon god, the defenders were protected from the scales of ancient dragons.

Expensive magic scrolls are stirred up. The magic aura at night is simply dazzling.

Then there was a loud noise, and the already sturdy wall was smashed down by the monster. All kinds of stones and slabs fell to the ground.

Suddenly, long golden serpents rising from the top of the temple scurried around the battlefield. They devour monsters mercilessly. The tumbling torches lit with the wails of these ugly lost people.

Intense sublime energy poured into the monster's body at this moment. Eventually, it erupted from their orifices, reducing the entire monster to ashes.

The ensuing confrontation began, and the blue-white brilliant weapon lightly broke through the chaotic barrier on the monster's body. The two warring sides are on the same starting line at this moment.

With the targeted enchantment, Barrett can be said to be like a fish in water at this time! The power of the earth allowed him to smash the monster's bones with ease. The power of the spirit allows him to easily find the flaws in the other party's actions...... He wielded his axe and smashed it into the monster in front of him

Usually the dwarves are short in size and siblings, with great strength, but dexterity but not enough, and the weapons they use are heavy short soldiers such as giant axes and war hammers, and the charge in formation on the flat ground is naturally indomitable. But at the moment, it is not flexible enough to move around in this narrow place.

However, the tall 'dwarf' in front of him directly showed his amazing strength to the world. Each of his attacks was capable of cutting off at least a portion of the monsters' limbs. In a matter of seconds, he was left with a ring of stumps. It's an amazing feat. It boosted the morale of the surrounding aborigines.

If in reality it is the hero who gives courage to mortals, and courage that makes mortals become heroes. In this world, then, the hero is the creator of history. Those who become heroes are extraordinary even before they become famous.

Because in reality, the gap in strength between people is generally not very large, and it is difficult for the so-called boxing champion to deal with ten adult men at the same time. The most brilliant psychic can probably play small tricks such as breaking the soup spoon and hypnosis.

But in this world, a warrior with high martial arts skills can completely defeat a hundred, and a wise mage can go to heaven and earth and move mountains and seas. Knights born of war have even performed the feat of God Slayer. Success or failure of the rise and fall is often really maintained on one or two people. Most of the rest are just cannon fodder.
