Susan looked at Erwin with a faint look in her eyes, and there was no expression on her face, but her appearance made Erwin's scalp tingle.

"Haha, actually, it's not a problem, it's a big deal to treat it as a free tour, right?"

“…………！”

Resisting the urge to shoot this bastard with an arrow, Susan sighed and asked helplessly, "So what are we going to do now?" ”

"Let's take a look at the situation first, and then find a chance to get out of here." Erwin replied as he walked to the window by the wall and peered through the glass.

Outside, a straight street with rudimentary stone paving, flanked by undulating houses, and at the end of the street you can see a section of high walls.

Erwin leaned against the window and looked at it for a moment, it was noon, but the streets were very cold, and only occasionally one or two armed figures hurried by.

Susan also walked to the window and looked out, and at the same time opened her mouth to ask Erwin: "You said that this place is called Dagger City, which is the border city of North Sunderland, which country is North Sunderland?" ”

"The country closest to the northwest of the Northern Great 6, on the border between the Northern 6 and the Black Eagle Grassland, is the descendant of Conrad, the King of Silver."

Erwin replied briefly, but he didn't say anything about the more detailed aspects of North Sunderland.

For example, long before the Titan Holy See incorporated the Black Eagle Grassland into its sphere of influence, the border of North Sunderland has been very unstable, and the Black Barbarians who migrated from the depths of the Black Eagle Grassland over the Great Snow Mountain have been invading this huge human kingdom

For this reason, North Sunderland had to scatter the country's elite wolf legions along the entire border, and nearly 100,000 soldiers turned border cities into military fortresses, specially used to resist the invasion and raiding of the black barbarians.

And Dagger City is the one that deserves the brunt.

This border city, which looks like a dagger from a bird's-eye view from above, is subject to more than thirty black barbarian invasions every year.

The city, which once had a population of more than 30,000, has long since become a purely military fortress, so not only are there no nobles, but there are also very few civilians, the most common being mercenaries and many smugglers from all over North Sunderland.

Erwin heard Susan gasp slightly, this girl who has never left the border of the Kingdom of Gaston since she was a child can be regarded as a trip to the far away gate this time, from the South 6 to the North 6 at once.

This is almost unimaginable for many civilians who have never left a village or town in their lives, and even experienced mercenaries and adventurers can at most travel from one city to another nearby city, an experience that would allow them to brag in a tavern for hours every night.

"Let's go, let's go outside and take a look at the situation first." Erwin glanced back at Susan.

The girl nodded, but there was still some nervousness in her expression, and her fingers were stirring the corners of her clothes uneasily, although Susan was able to calmly face the dangerous monsters in the Shadow Mountains, but at this time she still showed the weak side of a woman in a foreign country.

"It's okay, just follow me, North Sunderland's language may be a little different from Gaston, you try not to speak." Erwin patted Susan on the shoulder, gave her a reassuring smile, and then turned and walked towards the door.

Susan took a deep breath, reached out and patted her face, then followed Erwin's side.

The two walked to the closed door, Erwin reached out and pulled the door open, with a creak, a lot of dust fell on the old door, a ray of sunlight shone through the dust, Erwin and Susan narrowed their eyes, and walked out of the church door in the sunlight.

Outside the gate was a square forecourt with a small dry cistern in the middle, a fence covered with moss and vines, and half of the wooden gate.

Outside the courtyard is a horizontal street, intersecting with the street that Erwin saw from the window inside the church.

Erwin and Susan walked out of the courtyard together, and immediately felt a completely different aura.

First of all, it was dilapidated, and many of the buildings were dilapidated to the point of being unusable - because of the perennial war, the nobles and commoners of Dagger City had long since run out, leaving only the garrison army and a small number of people who did not want to leave, so that a large number of houses were vacant, and the church that Erwin and Susan had teleported to had been abandoned by the congregants many years ago.

In addition to the dilapidation, there seemed to be a smell of gunsmoke in the air, and in many places you could see the traces of the battle and the scorched black of the flames, and through the towering pointed roofs, you could see the smoke billowing up into the sky from the rest of the city.

"Nima, it's not the right time." Erwin cursed, and led Susan down the street to the south.

What I saw along the way showed that Dagger City had just experienced a baptism of war, and there were broken and scattered weapons and armor everywhere on the ground, and a severed arm not far away made Susan's expression look terrified, and dark red blood flowed on the ground, and after coagulation, it turned into a pitch black mass, attracting countless buzzing flies to watch and eat.

Erwin's face was also very unsightly, he was not interested in the bleak images left behind by the war, and all he wanted was to get out of this place as soon as possible.

At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing thin leather armor and carrying a long sword and shield came out of the alley next to the street, and his face was tired and bloody.

The man looked to be in his thirties, like a mercenary, staring blankly at the ground as he walked towards Erwin and the others.

Erwin's nerves suddenly tensed, what he wanted most was to leave Dagger City without being seen by anyone, but this was obviously unlikely, and if he deliberately avoided it, it would only be more suspicious if he was revealed, so Erwin could only leave as naturally as possible, and prayed that Dagger City after the war would not notice his and Susan's two faces, otherwise it was very likely that he would be arrested as a spy.

When the middle-aged man heard the footsteps approaching, he subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Erwin and Susan, and then lowered his head again.

Erwin quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the middle-aged man suddenly raised his head and stared at the two, frowning and said, "Where did you come from?" Why haven't I seen you? ”

Erwin and Susan were both nervous, and Susan subconsciously clenched her winged bow, but she couldn't quite understand what the other was saying - the man spoke Portland, and as Erwin said, it was quite different from Portland in the south.

Erwin could hear it clearly, he looked at the man, countless thoughts turned in his heart for a moment, and finally gave up the idea of knocking the other party unconscious, but slowly replied: "We just came from outside, did there be a fight here yesterday?" ”

"Outside? Where? The middle-aged man didn't answer Erwin's question, but continued to ask.

Erwin lowered his face at the right time, and at the same time frowned, showing the displeasure of a young man who was not respected, and then he said impatiently in a low voice: "From the town of Kodoria, why are you asking this?" ”

The middle-aged man exhaled, the town of Kodoria was not far from Dagger, and the young people there did like to venture to the border city.

Glancing at Erwin with a slanted eye, he had seen a lot of young people who didn't know how important they were.

"If you just came, you don't know the rules, go to the army to report, otherwise the soldiers will show up, and they won't care if you are new or not."

Erwin nodded, although the middle-aged man's attitude was old-fashioned, but he didn't talk nonsense - in wartime, mercenaries or adventurers who were not recruited by the army to enter the battlefield without permission need to report to the army. Failure to do so means that the soldier has the right to treat anyone who carries a weapon on the battlefield as a spy.

"Yesterday the city was broken!" The middle-aged man sighed, his eyes became blank again, as if he remembered the bloody and bitter battle that made him feel palpitations yesterday, "Those black barbarians broke the city and killed them, we followed the army to entangle them in the city, occupied the territory and drove them out again and again, and then they were rushed in again......"

Erwin chatted with the middle-aged man, and although Susan, who was standing next to her, couldn't understand what they were saying, it seemed that the middle-aged man was no longer wary of the two, which made her secretly relieved.

After a while, the middle-aged man waved his hand at Erwin, then glanced at Susan, smiled and said something to Erwin, and turned to leave.

"What did he say?" Susan asked curiously.

Erwin smiled and said, "He said your little girlfriend is pretty too. ”

Susan's face immediately turned red, she glared at Erwin, and said dissatisfiedly, "What nonsense are you talking about!" But no matter how you look at it, her tone is a little more shy than angry.

After the middle-aged man's episode, Erwin was relieved, but he didn't plan to report to the army now, but took Susan directly to the city gate, and it was imperative to leave Dagger City as soon as possible.

On the other hand, what Erwin didn't know was that the middle-aged man who had left them had just crossed a street when he encountered a group of heavily armed soldiers.

"Osborne, where are you damn slackers, hurry up and get those fools running around in the city, you need help at the city walls."

A man who looked like a non-commissioned officer shouted at Osborne.

"Hey, don't say that, sir, we're on the same front now, but it's only temporary, we're not soldiers under your command, don't use your shit rules to restrain us."

Osborne rolled his eyes at the non-commissioned officer, "I just chatted with the two new ones who came in the morning for a while, and it was very good. Don't always count on us mercenaries for support, it's time to consider replenishing reserves from nearby towns. ”

The non-commissioned officer was still listening to Osborne's words with a smile, but at this time he was stunned and asked, "New in the morning?" Where did you come from? ”

"Coming from Cordoria, the young people over there often run here, you shouldn't waste ......"

Osborne was about to say something, when he saw the non-commissioned officer's eyes instantly sharpen like a sword blade, and roared at him: "We have been closed since last night, and the gates have not been opened until now, who else can come in from the outside, you damn fool!"
