Chapter 182: The Slums

Along the way, it is rare to see mages infected, and even the parts of the infected petrification are very small, and they can be concealed with a little concealment.

The atmosphere in Gale Winds was very strange, and the people passing by wrapped themselves tightly, even the nobles rarely showed up in the carriage, and even when they came out, they only showed their eyes.

The stone demon's curse first changes in the body, and then penetrates into the soul and completely transforms into a stone man, which takes time.

Stormwind is built around a massive domed mountain range that looks like a whirling hurricane from afar.

The outermost part is the most populous slum, also known as the slave district, where slaves who have been resold from various places are housed and selected before being sent to the interior of Stormwind, which is the most active area for slave traders, and occasionally some nobles can be seen picking slaves.

Passing through the slums is the civilian area, where selected and qualified humans live.

Civilians mostly work in workshops or shops, and the population is equally large, connected to the slums, but very different.

Civilian areas are much cleaner than slums.

On the edge of the commoner area was a three-meter-high wall, also known as the women's wall, and through the women's wall was the low-ranking aristocratic quarter.

The aristocratic hierarchy is strict, there are five kinds of titles of dukes and uncles, and the earl lives in the low-end aristocratic area, and Lao Li's current status as a lord can barely enter.

The inner floors are areas where the nobles can only live, with tall walls, professional knights and mages, and a variety of cutting-edge magical weapons.

The only person who can settle here is the status of the earl, and the ordinary nobles can only barely count as servants here, and each nobleman here has a fief in the Gale Kingdom and has an independent army.

And in the high-ranking aristocratic package, it is Gale Castle.

Occupy the top of the Storm Mountains, controlled by the Gale Winds, and home to the Storm Magic Legion and the Royal Legion, and the Hurricane Mages are located in Gale Castle.

The hierarchy is strict, and it is never allowed to cross half a point.

The two hobbit dwarves were leaning against the wall and moaning, and there was a stink-sized wound on their left leg that was constantly leaking pus, and they should not survive for more than a few days.

Hobbit dwarves are not dwarves, except that they are very low and resemble dwarves, as they are called.

They don't have dwarven beards, they don't drink so much, they are better at tidying up the house or tending the flowers, they like to be careful with their budgets, and they are the best housekeepers.

"Let's look at the disease!", Li Zhenshu threw two coppers.

"Master, a couple of sneaky men are following up!", reminds Francis, who likes to judge friend and foe in a cluttered environment.

Lao Li is like a regular customer spinning in the alley, unconsciously detouring into a dead end.

A dozen young men laughed, two strong Doug dogheads tied to chains, "Hand over the golden hooves in your pockets, don't hide from me that I can smell them." ”

"Golden hoofs also smell?", Li Zhen laughed.

"Less nonsense!", the two kobolds rushed up, and the kobolds froze in place before they could get close to Li Zhenshu.

Lao Li ** on top of each other's heads, and two dog-headed skeletons stood up from the corpses.

"Law... Mage?", a dozen young people were a little scared, this was not an ordinary mage but an evil necromancer, it was too late to escape, Morel floated over, and the soul had disappeared.

Without a skeleton, Lao Li is not honest, especially now that he has entered the current Gale City alone.

"What are you doing?", the tall figures of a group of armed soldiers blocked the light of the alley, glanced at the dead corpses on the ground, and their eyes fell directly on Li Zhenshu, "Killed?"

Li Zhen nodded tremblingly, hung the lord's badge on his left chest, and several soldiers were stunned and retreated without speaking.

The lord is also a nobleman!

Francis quacked, he was not convinced to cheapen Morel.

But the souls of these gangsters are too low-level, the devil needs the most extreme soul, and his magic jar is not a garbage heap.

Morel sucks the soul unscrupulously, she is never picky, the more the soul swallows, the stronger the ability, and she follows Li Zhenshu like a little maid with a smile.

A skeleton rises from the corpse and disappears into the brass key.

There was nothing left in the dark alleys but the stinking blood.

An old Pige man groaned under his breath on the side of the road, one arm hanging on one side, broken.

"Let's go to the doctor!", a shiny silver coin was thrown on the other party, and Lao Li casually walked towards the small alley next to him.

The smell of blood in the air can never control the smell of ghetto greed, and no one will notice the disappearance of ordinary creatures under this hotbed of sin.

Morel needs to eat, and Lao Li also needs to prepare some skeletons for himself.

Li Zhen walked leisurely down the street, and in the derivative space, the stone farmer was placing a skeleton on the grass.

From morning to now, there are almost hundreds.

"It's still too slow!", relying on these small means to accumulate skeletons, I really didn't know that it was going to be the Year of the Monkey, and I unconsciously wandered around to a carpenter's workshop, maybe the business was not good, and it was very quiet inside.

There were scattered pieces of wood on the ground, a freshly processed wooden table in the middle, and in the distance there was a wood that had not yet been built, and two pigs were sleeping in the corner.

Grunting, the other party's stomach screamed, so that Morel couldn't help but laugh out loud.

In the middle of the hall, a human was counting the copper in his hand, and Morel's laughter startled the other party, and he hurriedly put away the silver coins.

"What are you doing, breaking into the workshop, I'm calling the guards. However, when he saw the lord logo on Lao Li's chest, his tone instantly softened, "I didn't expect the nobleman to arrive, it was my mistake!", and hurriedly gave himself a few mouths after speaking.

"Stop fanning!", Li Zhen waved his hand and placed a shining golden hoof on the table, "Do you know what this is?"

The old man laughed and said, "Golden Hoof! Who doesn't know this thing!"

"What business do you do?"

"Processing some wood, making some tables and chairs, and by the way, making some wood weapons, these days I have been fighting, my business is not good. The old man covered the money bag tightly, and the nobles were worse than those ruffians.

"Take these things, buy me a piece of barbecue, bring me a pot of the best wine, and find a groom to feed my old horse. Li Zhenshu pointed to the two Pigs at the door, "Let the two of them eat a little more, and I am upset when they listen to it." ”

"Yes, yes!", the old man smiled shrewdly, and ran straight out with the golden hooves in his arms.

"He's not going to buy anything!", Francis whispered, "he's seen a fat man, and he's seen the golden hoof, which is beyond my scrutiny, and I'll go with him." ”

"Forget it!", Li Zhenshu stopped the other party, don't look at the poor in the slums, the poorer the place, the more cunning.

The old carpenter came back half an hour, bringing with him a roast lamb, a bottle of good rum wine, a halfling, and a bundle of grass.

I bought some low-quality barley and woke up the two Pigs.

Not a single silver coin could be used in a set, so the old man respectfully poured a cup of hot water and cut the lamb slices himself, with an extremely respectful attitude.

Li Zhenshude quietly enjoyed everything, the water was not right, it didn't look like poison when you tasted it carefully, but it was a little familiar.

After drinking a glass of water, the old man sat on the table and smiled, "Do you know what you just drank?"

Lao Li shook his head.

"The powder scraped off the stone man!", the old man said triumphantly, "you are now cursed by the stone demon, as long as I shout, the soldiers outside will rush in, I only have three golden hooves, you must have them." ”

Li Zhen obediently put the three golden hooves on the table, "Do you still need it?"

"You still have?"

One after the other, ten of them, each one full of solid color.

The old carpenter stared dryly, completely attracted by the gold, and put his head into his pocket, shouting, "There are stone demon infected!"

Two burly soldiers rushed in, carrying long swords and approaching Li Zhenshu, "Follow us!"

"Why?"

"You've been cursed by the Stone Devil!"

"Me?", Li Zhen stood up and turned around, safe and sound, on the contrary, the old carpenter's legs creaked upwards and quickly spread to the entire body.

The two warriors were far away, knowing that the faster the petrification, the greater the curse.

I wanted to extort a small fortune, but now the real stone demon curse has appeared.

"The effect of the stone demon powder is so powerful?", Lao Li was still a little shocked, and kept retreating, and the two soldiers turned around and ran directly.

Morel smiled and stepped forward and directly devoured this greedy soul.

Li Zhen trembled and had another undead.

Looking at the two Pigs at the door who were crazy about devouring inferior barley, I felt a little unbearable, Pigs were originally known for being fat and lazy, but now they are as thin as a normal human being.

Such low-quality barley is generally fed to horses.

"Feed your things to the horses!", Li Zhen smiled bitterly, "These are yours!"

Roast sheep?

The two Pigs stared wide-eyed, and that's what they could enjoy?

"Not yet!", reprimanded the Black Crow, who had not yet found a tricky soul, but Morel was satisfied.

The two Pigs may be really hungry, and no matter how the crow can speak, they rushed over to pick up the whole roast sheep and nibble it, and swept Lao Li's wine, which was not polite at all.

"Tell me, how can you get some corpses without even noticing?"
