Chapter 340: Outpost

"The regimental commander, it is an orc, there are twenty horsemen in total. ”

The scout was shocked.

"Bring all the horses over, build defenses, and prepare for battle. ”

Anthony pulled out a soul mount badge to instill magical energy, released a velociraptor and then rolled over and rode on, leaping away to meet the cavalry.

"Hey, I didn't expect our head to be a fashion-conscious guy, Ferrari's mass-produced velociraptor mount, priced at one million gold marks. ”

Dongba was envious and quipped.

Although it is a mass-produced product, it does not have any attack power, but it is a soul mount, as long as the magic energy is enough, the rider can hold it, and there is no problem at all in running for two hundred miles in one go, which is a good choice for escaping.

It was a group of werewolf bandits, who rode Texas red wolves, wore leather armor and red masks, and stopped a hundred meters away.

The two sides were negotiating, and as if to exert pressure, the bandits drew their scimitars and roared at Anthony.

The regimental commander was unmoved, and made a gesture, and the middle-aged knight immediately blessed the team with an aura, and the three archers also wound up and aimed at them.

The mage took out his staff and began to chant incantations, ready to intimidate the shot.

Although the bandits were all cavalrymen with good sprinting power, they were too single in class and thought that they would be shot from a distance before they could disperse the group, so they gave up the attack and quickly left to find the next small team.

"Fortunately, if there is a fight, we will have to reduce our personnel again. Dongba wiped a cold sweat, the werewolf cavalry's tenacity and ferocious fighting style had always been famous, and no one wanted to run into them.

"Go ahead!"

Anthony secretly breathed a sigh of relief, surviving in the secret realm, he really didn't dare to be careless for a second.

The team arrived at the outpost in the afternoon, more than two hours later than expected, much to Anthony's displeasure. But he couldn't help it, there was actually an adventurer in the team who was bitten by a cobra, and if it weren't for the antidote, he would have become the first unlucky guy to be a non-combat attrition.

"Disband, you guys go and get acquainted with the base, there is a grocery store on the east side. If you lack something, you can buy it, and if you can't buy it, you can go to the logistics team of those large mercenary groups, as long as they pay for it, they can get everything. ”

Anthony stretched and walked down North Street, "There's the lodging area up ahead, and our camp is there. Don't go any further, and remember to return before 7pm. ”

"Commander, when are you leaving?" asked the bearded man.

"Tomorrow morning at 5 o'clock, while the weather is not hot, if anyone does not arrive on time, the team will not wait. "Anthony is going to get some sleep and recuperate for the next strategy.

"Let's go, let's go to the market. ”

Dongba put his arm around Downton's shoulders. A man with a pointed chin also approached, the same archer who had reached out to help shoot the vulture.

"What's there to go about? I have plenty of supplies. Downton refused, desperate to find a quiet place to find out what was going on with the Ancient Grimoire.

"Lord Knight, you don't understand this, the journey just now is dangerous enough, right? Therefore, after some adventuring groups come in, they will not go out easily, unless the members of the group are too badly damaged and need to be replenished. Or get enough of it. The scumbag man came over and accosted him with a flattering face.

"Go, go, go!" "Go, go!" "Go, go, You can find good things. ”

"Don't go. "Downton knows how many pounds and taels he has, without Homer, his knowledge is pitiful, and it is a joke to want to find a treasure.

"Not only this, but also all kinds of potions, ores, and corpses of demonic beasts are bought and sold, from which you can roughly deduce the types of demonic beasts in the lava secret realm, and understand what needs to be paid attention to. The scumbag interjected, after all, he was a judge level, he had been to places before, and he had a lot of experience.

"Let's go, it's not a small delay. ”

Dongba and Downton left with their pointed chins, and the scumbag gave his daughter a look and asked her to follow quickly and serve Downton.

The outpost is square, the main street is 200 meters long, and according to the unwritten rules of the adventure world, it is generally divided by a north-south axis, and the base is divided into four areas.

The western area is generally a trade area, and at the same time has the functions of a blacksmith shop, a pharmacy, a weapon shop, etc., which is convenient for adventurers to organize their equipment, the northern area is a accommodation area, and the southern area is a warehouse area, where the materials consigned by major mercenary groups and large adventure groups will be handed over, and the eastern area is generally reserved for sub-human habitation.

In this period of increasingly serious ethnic conflicts, even if the country where the secret realm is located is not to maximize profits, it is impossible to keep sub-humans out, otherwise it will inevitably cause war, after all, no one is willing to give up the benefits of the secret realm, so the country can only open up exclusive living quarters for them in the base.

Of course, the sub-human race can build another outpost, but it will be time-consuming, laborious and costly, not to mention, it will delay the attack on the secret realm, even if they are unwilling, they have to admit that in this continent where humans occupy the mainstream, human commerce and trade will always be the most prosperous.

"How can there be ordinary people? aren't they afraid of death?" Downton found that the base was very noisy, especially in front of the blacksmith shop and the potion shop, and there were even long queues, but the most surprising thing to him was the merchants and blacksmiths, who were obviously not magicians.

Weishenme said that a secret realm is the basis for the rise of a country, because the derivative benefits it brings are too great. The scumbag man hurriedly replied, "Carrying and escorting supplies, repairing armor, selling goods, etc., these tasks will definitely not be done by the demons, and can only be handed over to the civilians, what are the commoners? They are poor people who are not well fed and clothed and bear heavy taxes, what is the danger of death? As long as they can make money, they will go out of everything." ”

"Indeed, as the secret realm continues to explore, there will be more and more outposts, do you calculate, how many work positions can this provide?" Dongba patted Downton on the shoulder, "It's still the early stage of the strategy, it's too dangerous, wait until two or three months later, the nearby demonic beasts will be cleared, and the route from the base to the dimensional rift will be completely safe, and even prostitutes will come in wave after wave to make money." ”

It is worthy of the lava secret realm, and the things sold are more or less with the fire element, and Downton turned around, but he didn't find anything valuable.

The adventurers are not stupid, the ones they take out and trade are ordinary goods, and those unrecognizable items found in the secret ruins must be brought back to find professionals for identification.

"You guys play, I'll go back and rest. ”

This time Downton refused with an iron heart.

"I'll help you lead the horse!" the scumbag man was earnest.

The base is too small, there are too many adventurers, and things are scarce, so the house in the North District is very expensive, and it costs three hundred gold coins for one night.

Anthony was reluctant to spend the money, so he set up a large tent outside the North District, and there were many more adventure teams like him.

"The wall of the base is only one and a half meters, if you really have trouble, there is no difference between the inside and the outside, the only benefit is that it is more private. ”

The deputy head of the regiment was wearing a regular uniform, and the neckline was untied, revealing a piece of wheat-colored milk ~ meat.

Anthony sat on the blanket, clasped his feet in one hand and a glass full of juice in the other, and poured it into his mouth.

"Whew, it's so cool. Anthony let out a long breath and scolded again, "A glass of juice with a few copper plates outside, it sells for twenty silver coins here, it's so dark, those merchants are just in the eyes of money." ”

That being said, adventurers will not treat themselves badly if they should eat and drink, after all, no one knows if they will survive tomorrow, and instead of dying with money, it will be a little extravagant.

"Commander, I'm not used to living in a tent, can I go and rent a room?" Tang Zheng made an excuse, the tent was so thin, if he studied the Magic Codex, he would definitely be noticed, and if the rental house was suitable, he was also going to set up a teleportation array, of course, before Homer recovered, there was no need to think about it.

"Go ahead, but remember to come back at eight o'clock in the evening for a combat meeting. When Downton left, Anthony shook his head, "The boy is like this, he can't endure hardship." ”

"Is he a third-order war? How do I feel that his attack power can catch up with the fifth-order level?" Rebecca pinched her collar with her fingers, constantly tugging and fanning the wind.

"Anyway, I found a treasure, by the way, if you're okay, don't talk to Downton? Looking at his spending money, he seems to be a local tyrant, if you hook up with him, you won't have to take such a hard risk in the future." Anthony teased his companion.

Rebecca glanced at Anthony, she understood what the head of the group meant, in fact, she had some heart, although Downton was a little younger, but he was very handsome, and he still seemed to be a chick.

"I'm Dibolo, this kid is really rich, and he actually rents a house. "The scumbag man was squatting on the streets of the North End, thinking about where to get some money and buy some expedition supplies, when he saw Downton walk out of the property management bureau with a key.

Juliet's gaze followed Downton's back until he disappeared behind the door, reluctant to take it back.

"You go to him, no matter what you do, you will get me back a thousand gold coins today, not two thousand!" The scumbag man spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm and stared at his wife.

Milia's body shook, her face was full of disbelief, she thought that her husband was just angry when he said that she would be a prostitute, but she didn't expect him to do this.

"You are also a demon, and you have also raided the secret realm, so you also know that without supplies, we are doomed. The scumbag gritted his teeth, "We don't have a choice." ”

"But......" Miria's self-esteem made it difficult for her to accept this kind of thing, although she had done all the menial jobs before, but she had never sold her body.

"We're at a dead end, and if we can't turn over this time, not only the two of us will die, but Juliet will also die. The scumbag sneered, "You say, apart from your body, what hole cards do we have? Yes, there is also a daughter's body." ”

"Don't hurt Juliet, I'll go. Miria roared like a wounded she-beast. (To be continued......)
