Poetry of Iron (20)

"Why is that?" I said.

"Most of the tasks of the Human Adventurers' Guild are to escort and hunt beasts. Because the orcs who fought against humans generally attacked in groups, and the target was also the army and the imperial city rarely attacked the village. And the adventurer's guild of the elves has the most tasks of rescuing the villages invaded by the demons and the captured elves, because the demons are relatively scattered and like to sneak attack and plunder in groups and evacuate after capturing the captives. Therefore, as an adventurer in Moon City, the tasks they take on are often life-threatening, and if you are not careful, you will die quickly. ”

I listened to Han Dong's words all the way, and arrived at the foot of Moon City before dark.

This and the Imperial City are completely different appearances, and the Imperial City is built of stone bricks. And Moon City is actually made of huge green vines, which has more spirituality than the Imperial City.

After looking at the two cities for more than ten years, you won't feel any difference when you look at them from a distance. Only when you get close will you notice the difference, the elven soldiers stood in a row, full of bows and arrows, opened the city gate slightly, and shouted to us: "Dear adventurers, please show a little bare skin to prove that you are not demons." ”

Han Dong rolled up his sleeves and raised his hands, his hands were raised high with his skin exposed, and he said to me, "Do as I do." ”

"Why is that?" I said.

"Demons are almost no different from humans and elves, and the adventurer's mask obscures the only recognizable part. It is obviously not possible to let the adventurer take off the mask, then the only difference is the skin color. Both humans and elves are normal meat colors, with the most difference being yellowish or white. And the demons are different, either purple or black and purple. Because in the past, there were also demons who disguised adventurers to enter Moon City, with the purpose of attacking the royal family and nobles of Moon City. ”

I followed Han Dong's example and flipped over part of my armor, revealing my arms and lifting them up.

The bow and arrow were slowly lowered, and the gate was fully opened.

Han Dong put down his hand and led me into Moon City, and after the gate was opened, the scene inside was completely different from that of the Imperial City.

The ground was full of extended vines, and the soldiers on the side walked over and looked at Han Dong and me, and said, "Diamond-level and green agate-level adventurers? You don't look like you're from Moon City, are you?"

Han Dong took out the parchment and said, "Deliver the order of Princess Xueji, the new ruler of the Imperial City, and come to Moon City to deliver important news." ”

The soldier nodded his head and said, "So is this your first time in Moon City?" In the middle of the Moon City, the World Tree Tree Cave is the main hall. ”

Han Dong waved his hand and led me to the so-called World Tree, and the merchants on the side of the road all directly found a blanket and threw it on the ground, and then put the goods to be sold on it and began to sell.

Merchants sit on the floor, while passing customers are skillfully half-squatting to pick what they want to buy.

Every few tens of meters, there is a fountain surrounded by vines, and the clear water sprays from above and disappears into the depression of the vines below.

Some elves sat directly on the vines, holding the flowing water in their hands and drinking freely.

"Can you drink those? I'm so thirsty. I said.

"That's Moon Spring, one of the elven treasures. Of course I can drink it, but... Han Dong whispered.

As soon as Han Dong said that I could drink it, I walked to the nearest Moon Spring, and the elves who were originally on the side saw me and immediately moved a few meters away to observe that I didn't dare to approach.

I tried to reach out and take a sip of the spring water, and the water felt cold. I took a puff from under the mask and had a sweet feeling.
