readx;? There was no pressure on the way, and it was very easy to walk, and the weather had entered late autumn, and the people of Aogucheng should have put on heavy autumn clothes to resist the cold air from the direction of the sunset grassland. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info But in the south of the mainland, the weather is only a little autumn in the morning and evening, and the day is still hot, especially at noon when the sun is shining.

In addition to the weather, the cultural customs along the way are also more and more different from the north, the animals and plants in the wilderness, the crops in the fields, the people's food, the residents' buildings, clothing and language are all different from the north, especially in some small places on the way, the language used by the local villagers does not know what they are saying if they don't listen carefully.

In the group, except for Shelly, everyone else arrived at such a southerly location for the first time, so during the journey, while experiencing the cultural customs of the southern country, while enjoying the completely different exotic scenery along the way, everyone felt that the trip was worthwhile.

It was the first time for Miranda to see so many new things, and every day she excitedly followed the little swallow out of the nest, and asked this and that around Shelly's side, either by chasing wild things in the field with magic, or by picking a large number of wild flowers, weaving them into a wreath and giving one to everyone, and forcing them to wear them on their heads, and even Berego and Fresnel, who had been acting cold, received one, and to everyone's surprise, they actually accepted the little girl's gift, and put it on their heads seriously. The two of them were originally handsome men and beautiful women, and with garlands, they were even more handsome and abnormal. And the little girl also greatly alleviated the confrontation and embarrassment between each other through this action, and gradually the two sides began to communicate with each other, Fresnel even took the initiative to instruct Miranda how to make the garland more beautiful, and Berego also taught Harvey how to find some delicious wild vegetables to come back and cook vegetable soup. Shelly and the three mercenaries stared wide-eyed, they couldn't understand how two people who were obviously swordsmen had such an interest in life, only Alan looked at all this with a thoughtful look.

Passing through Higg and further south, there are small countries in the south, because they both belong to the vassal states of the Holy See, so the management on the border is very very loose, and the group did not even have a mercenary mission book, only paid a few gold coins, and easily entered the Nanye country, one of the countries adjacent to Higg, among the small countries in the south.

After entering the southern wilderness country, the terrain became complicated, and the dense forests and water networks were dense, and the speed of the group had to be reduced because they had to wade through the water frequently.

Based on experience, Shelly decided to abandon the horse and board the ship. They sold their sycophants nearby, then bought a small boat, and continued south along a river that originated in the swamps of the western part of the continent, guided by Bergo and Fresnel. There was no need for a boatman, Alan only needed to cough, and the boat would automatically start taxiing in the predetermined direction, and it would travel fast and steadily.

As they went deeper into the southern wilderness, Berego and Fresnel, who had always been relatively relaxed, gradually began to show nervous expressions when they arrived here, and they would often gather together and mumble something quietly, and sometimes, at night on the shore, when the moon came out, they would run to a high place, not knowing what to do.

For this situation, although Alan is the captain of this trip, it is inconvenient to ask, but he knows in his heart that they should be getting closer and closer to the target person at this time, and what the two people are doing may be to confirm the specific location of the searched person through some special methods or to get in touch with each other. Because every time they go through something like this, their route may be re-corrected the next day.

Like Alan, everyone knows that the goal is getting closer, and the relaxed mood begins to gradually converge, only Miranda has no heart and lungs, and runs from the bow to the stern every day, bored to death, so he takes the fish in the river to vent his anger, and often casts lightning magic in the area where the fish gather, so that the fish jump on the water, and Alan is constantly pointing her skills in casting spells.

Berego and Fresnel, who were sitting in the cabin, looked at Allen and Miranda, the master and apprentice, with expressions of idiocy.

The master uses magic to drive the boat, and the apprentice uses magic electric fish, this pair of masters and apprentices is really the best!

The boat first went south, then turned southeast, and as it went deeper into the southern wilderness, the scenery on both sides changed again, the dense forests gradually became sparse, and large areas of grain fields began to appear, and then densely populated villages and towns, and there were more boats on the river, boats came and went, oars were staggered, and finally a huge city appeared at the end of the view, and that was the destination in front of Allen, Pooh City.

The ship drove all the way to the dock on the side of the city gate, and Alan stood on the bow of the ship and looked around, and the whole dock was a busy scene, full of ships loading and unloading goods, shouting merchants, slaves carrying goods with bare backbones, and tax collectors in charge of counting goods.

"If this mission goes well, we may be able to sell a few boatloads of grain back to Aogucheng on the return trip, and we will definitely make a lot of money. ”

At this time, it was the rice harvest season in the south, and when Allen saw the mountains of grain piled up on the shore, he thought of the refugees from Tiesong Town who were in urgent need of food, and not only sighed.

"The owner of the magic weapon store who is making a lot of money every day wants to sell food to make money, and he will be laughed at when he says it. ”

Shelly joked from the sidelines.

"Isn't the boss who earns a lot of money also a mercenary? ”

Alan smiled bitterly.

Alan and his party abandoned the boat and went ashore and followed the flow of people to prepare to enter the city, Pooh City is the second largest city in the southern wilderness country after the capital, with a permanent population of more than 400,000 in the city, and the scale is more than that of the ancient city of Ao.

The location of Pooh City is surrounded by land of fish and rice, and the people live a prosperous life. To the east is the Congo Mountain, the southern roof of the mainland, along the Congo Mountain all the way east is the Papal States, to the south is other small countries in the south, and to the north is the direct to Hig, because the river is like weaving, so it has always been an important water trade route, especially when the relationship between Hig and the Holy See is tense, it is to assume the main trade role.

Perhaps because there was no war for many years, the defense of Pooh City was very lax, not only could there be no soldiers patrolling on the city walls, but even at the city gate, there were only three or five guards standing guard there listlessly, basically turning a blind eye to the people who came and went, neither checking their identity nor collecting tolls, and everyone could enter and exit almost at will as long as they did not make trouble.

Alan and his party swaggered into the city with the flow of people, although the scene along the way was as prosperous as the ancient city of Ao, but everything was relatively more orderly and orderly, not as noisy and chaotic as the ancient city of Aogu. However, the road is relatively narrow compared to both the megalithic city and the ancient city of Aoku, and the buildings on both sides are different from the stone or concrete buildings in the north, most of which are mainly wooden buildings, and most of them are multi-storey small buildings.
