CHAPTER XIV
(Chapter 2 arrives!) Ask for collection, ask for tickets, ask for tickets, ~~~~~~)
In the year 1143 of the Dawn calendar, on the fifteenth day of the second month of the scorching season, he was in the mansion of the lord of the city in the county town of Dakshire, on the border of the province of Pursai, the kingdom of Sayre, on the border with the kingdom of Taran.
In a small living room in the city lord's mansion, the two of them sat on a chair and talked to a middle-aged man dressed as a butler.
"It turned out to be someone from the Scarlet Canyon Hurricane Legion, no wonder you have to travel so far from the Taran Kingdom to the Scarlet Canyon, it's really disrespectful! Please rest assured, I will inform the Earl immediately of the proof you need, and the result should be available soon," the middle-aged butler who was standing in the living room and was in charge of greeting the Tamon Knight and Rhodes was very surprised but enthusiastic after hearing the Tamon Knight's intention, and said that it should not be a big problem.
"Thank you very much"
After hearing the words of this middle-aged butler who served as a junior butler (Note 1) of the Earl of Kuman in the county town of Darkshire, the Tammon Knight was very grateful.
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
About an hour later, Rhodes and the Tamon Knight returned to the hotel where their group stayed in Dak City with the certificate issued by the City Lord's Mansion.
"Young Master Rhodes, with the proof Wen Jiàn, we can go directly to the Scarlet Canyon next!"
In his single room, the knight of Tamon, who was wearing a knight's uniform and only wearing a sword, put away the certificate issued by the city lord's mansion just now, and said to Rhodes who came in and was about to discuss the follow-up.
"That's right! But the situation is really smooth."
Listening to the words of the Tamon Knight, Rhodes nodded in agreement and looked a little touched.
Compared with the difficulty and time consumed by ordinary people of the Celestial Empire to go abroad for visas that Rhodes had seen in his previous life, the subordinate of the Count of Guman in the Pusai Province of the Sail Kingdom was indeed fast enough, and he almost handled it quickly after taking the relevant certificates of the Taran Kingdom and the tokens of the Hurricane Legion presented by Rod and Tamon.
Of course, Rhodes, who arrived in Duckshire yesterday, understands the reason behind this quick efficiency!
Soon after the Dawn War, when humans became the overlords of the continent, the northern kingdoms of humans, who were not yet the current kingdoms of Taran, Cell, and other countries, faced the invasion of the orc empire that had recovered slightly.
In the twelve battles for the Scarlet Canyon, in the first three battles for the Scarlet Canyon, almost all of the northern human defenders who were divided for some reason were defeated by the orc empire that gathered great strength. As a result, after the Orc Empire army successfully invaded from the Scarlet Canyon, the entire northern human countries were also unlucky!
After the invasion of the Orc Empire, which has a deep blood feud with humans, of course, it can't be the style of the Celestial Empire that goes to wars in foreign countries and treats foreigners as its own - there is no in this magical world where people pay attention to the preciousness of life, let alone this kind of bloody war between different races.
Under the ravages of the Orc Empire's army, the human countries in the north at that time could be said to have suffered countless casualties, if it weren't for the full support of other human countries who knew the situation, it is estimated that the Orc Empire would have returned to the center of the continent by now!
However, after the first three battles for the Scarlet Canyon, the northern human beings who did not have the concept of a tragic war suffered heavy casualties, and the reshuffle of various forces and countries was also a common thing.
After learning a lesson, the humans won the fourth and fifth battles for the Scarlet Canyon, but the victories of the Orc Empire in the sixth and eighth battles for the Scarlet Canyon made the three major northern human kingdoms become historical terms at that time. After the eighth battle for the Scarlet Canyon, there is the current pattern of the Five Kingdoms of the North!
It was only after the eighth battle for the Scarlet Canyon that the five northern kingdoms of the human race joined forces in a real sense, and each country invested its main army and strong men in the bloody canyon. Therefore, the relationship between the five northern countries is also quite close, and the nobles of the five northern countries can be unimpeded after remarks among the five countries. And Tamon Knight and Rhodes were able to do things so quickly this time, thanks to the Hurricane Legion token in Rhodes' hand!
As the main legion of the Taran Kingdom to assist the Sail Kingdom in garrisoning the Scarlet Canyon, the Hurricane Legion enjoys the same treatment as the main army of its own country in the Pur Kingdom, and there is absolutely no possibility of discrimination. And as Rhodes and Tamon, who went to the Scarlet Canyon to join the Hurricane Legion, it is understandable that they will be taken care of!
- People come and join the garrison legions in the Scarlet Canyon to help your country defend against the Orc Empire, and of course such "good people" will be well taken care of.
If it weren't for the fact that Rhodes was too young and didn't have much reputation in the Sail Kingdom, maybe even the Earl of Guman in the county would have met him, instead of just asking people to help quickly handle the relevant certificates.
Of course, this qiē information only flashed in Rhodes's mind, and he did not say it to the Tamon Knight.
"Well, it's really smooth," Listening to Rod's words, the Tamon Knight, who didn't know much about it, nodded in agreement. But when the Tamon knight thought of something, his expression, which was originally good, changed slightly, and then he said to Rhodes with some caution: "Young Master Rhodes, if we go to the Scarlet Canyon next, we will need to pass through at least the two provinces of the Sail Kingdom, should we still find a caravan to go together?"
After experiencing the slow snail-like caravan of the Farro province and being easily targeted by wild monsters and beasts, the Tamon Knight said that he really didn't want to partner with the caravan anymore.
Anyway, it is very good for Rhodes and Tamon to act alone, and if dozens of heavily armed cavalry escort a few carriages, not only is it fast, but those bandits, monsters, and ferocious beasts in the wilderness are difficult to express interest in this kind of hard bones with small gains and big pays, as long as they have a little IQ.
However, the Tamon Knight himself did not immediately make up his mind on this issue, and still consulted Rhodes first.
"Do what you want, Knight Tamon!"
Rod did not answer this question directly, but directly pushed it to the Tamon knight to deal with it himself.
Anyway, for Rod, it doesn't matter if he is going fast or slower now, he is more concerned about the spying operations that have begun to be carried out in the spiritual coordinate points and the game space of the gods that have been spread out in the Sail Kingdom.
As for going to the Scarlet Canyon with the caravan or waiting for someone to go to the Scarlet Canyon yourself? This kind of question is important
"Yes, Master Rod!"
After getting Rod's approval, the Tamon Knight was very excited. After a few more pleasantries, Rhodes left the Tammon Knight's room and returned directly to his room.
"The Sail Kingdom is a good development goal!" After returning to his room, Rhodes, who was lying on the bed, did not enter the game space of the gods, but sat on the bed and thought.
The current spiritual coordinate points of the gods game space have covered the provincial capitals, county towns, and small cities in the five provinces of the Talan Kingdom, and the first eight batches of nearly 50,000 contractors absorbed are being digested.
However, compared to the Sail Kingdom, the number and area of the Taran Kingdom are significantly smaller.
The county town of Darkshire on the border of the Kingdom of Sayre alone has a population of almost 200,000, which is almost double the population of the county of the same level in the Kingdom of Taran. And according to the exploration of the game space of the gods and the intelligence gathered, the comprehensive national strength of the Sail Kingdom is the first among the five northern kingdoms!
The largest land in China of the five northern countries is the Arctic Kingdom and the Kaman Kingdom near the extreme north, the most populous is the Litt Kingdom bordering the Shenghui Empire and most of the land area is in the plains, and the Talan Kingdom is the kind of population and land area that are at the level of the middle, middle and lower reaches of the five northern countries, at most the fourth or fifth concept.
However, among the five northern countries, the Sail Kingdom, which ranks third in terms of land area, not only has a fertile plain similar to the Litt Kingdom, but also is close to the Scarlet Canyon, a place that faces the danger of the Orc Empire, making the Sail Kingdom extremely concerned about force!
Since the founding of the kingdom, the Sail Kingdom has invested a large amount of revenue in military spending every year, and the major nobles and royal families in the Sail Kingdom have set the first standard of their heirs as the level of force or strategy.
In this case, there is no shortage of opportunities for actual combat at all (go directly to the Scarlet Canyon, there are many opponents on the side of the Orc Empire), and the probability of the middle and lower level powerhouses is much more than that of the Talan Kingdom.
- Anyway, in the Kingdom of Taran, Rhodes can't see people of the Bronze Warrior rank guarding the city gates!
"Let's wait! Let's talk about it in the Scarlet Canyon" After thinking for a while, Rhodes put away the thought in his mind for the time being. After all, he will soon arrive at his destination, Scarlet Canyon, and Rhodes is not in a hurry for the time being, and he doesn't even carry out the idea of the newly recruited contractor, but plans to wait for himself to arrive at Scarlet Canyon!
――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
On the fourth day after entering Dak County, Putu Province of the Sail Kingdom, with the help of the low-level butler of the City Lord's Mansion, the Tamon Knight finally found a guide who was willing to take them to the next province at the cost of a hundred gold coins of the Sail Kingdom.
With the help of this guide and the simple map of Putu Province in their hands, the Tamon Knights and Rhodes embarked on the last half of the journey to the Scarlet Canyon!
(Note 1: Similar to a middle manager who manages a certain aspect, he is not the kind of personal butler of the earl.) )
