Chapter Thirty-Eight: The First Entry into Hill City
"This is Hill City?"
Morin stood in the carriage and looked out at the behemoth that stood on the ground like a giant beast in front of him, the city of Hill. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It's not like the earthen fence of quicksand castle, which is only a few meters high, and it's not like the walls of Olympic Sailing City, which collapses with a bang. The walls of Hill City are more than 10 meters high, like a continuous hill, which is majestic.
It is undeniable that the scale of Hill City can be ranked among the many miraculous ancient cities of the ancient civilization era of the earth.
Even if you can't be the imperial capital of a dynasty, you can be a landlord city.
But in the mage world, this is just a viscount's private city.
How big the mage world is, Morin doesn't know. But just in the northeast of the continent where the Oran Kingdom was located, there were hundreds of thousands of countries about the same size as the Oran Kingdom.
Viscounts, in the Kingdom of Oran alone, there are more than a hundred!
The gates of Hill City were wide open, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians entering and entering. There are civilians walking with their heads bowed on both sides, caravans of carriages like long dragons, nobles surrounded by hundreds of high-profile servants, and unruly mercenaries carrying big swords and wearing leather armor.......
To the north of the quicksand castle is a huge glacier vein, where there is a frozen land, frozen all year round, and snow-capped mountains stand. It is a forbidden area for human life and a paradise for Warcraft.
Warcraft is a ferocious creature to ordinary people, devouring living people. But for mages, Warcraft is a valuable asset. The fur of the monster can be used as a robe, the claws and horns can be used as magic equipment, and even its flesh and blood contain abundant magical power, which can enhance people's physique and magic power. What's more, the Demon Beast has a Demon Core, which is a natural block of magical energy, and it is endless, unlike the Demon Crystal Vein, which takes an extremely long time to generate.
Therefore, there is an endless stream of mercenaries and adventurers who enter and exit the glacier vein to risk hunting and killing Warcraft, and Hill City is the largest Warcraft material trading market in the north of the Orlan Kingdom. As the so-called goose plucked its feathers, the Hilliton family, which occupies Hill City, collects more than one million gold coins in taxes every year.
The strength of the Olympic sail family is good, but compared to financial resources, it is much worse than the Hilliton family.
"How about we take Hill City?" Morin asked as he looked at Hill City, squinting slightly, and suddenly opened his mouth to the groom.
The groom was covered in cold sweat, and the baron was really too bold. And he stood at the gate of the city of Hill, and said that he would take the city of Hill, and he was not afraid of being heard.
Naturally, the groom is not a real groom, but a soldier in a quicksand castle. Mo Lin didn't care about his cold sweat performance, he pondered for a moment, didn't know what he was thinking, and asked, "Is my quicksand castle army in place?"
Since leaving the territory, he has taken a horseman with him on the surface, and he has been riding slowly in a carriage towards Hill City. Secretly, he came with 10,000 sword and shield soldiers and 3,000 cavalry from quicksand castle.
Naturally, the army marched by day and night. I didn't dare to take the main road, only took the remote path, so it took a lot of time.
Merlin swaggered in a carriage, attracting the attention of most of the Scouts of the Hilliton family, covering the march of the army.
"Ten thousand sword and shield soldiers, three thousand cavalry have moved in place. Lurking outside the city of Hill City, as soon as they hear the signal of Lord Morin, they will immediately attack!"
As soon as he heard the news of the quicksand castle army, the soldier who played the groom was very emotional and said passionately.
Morin nodded slightly, glanced at Hill City, and waved his big hand: "Then let's go into the city, let's meet Viscount Hilliton, and the other barons......"
The ornate carriage came slowly to the gates of Hill City, where Ruth, the steward of the Hilliton family, was waiting with people. It also shows that the Hilliton family has always controlled Morin's whereabouts.
"Lord Morin!" Steward Ruth bowed slightly in front of the carriage.
Morin stood up from the carriage, glanced at Ruth's butler, and nodded slightly: "Lead the way!"
Butler Ruth nodded, and led dozens of soldiers to turn over and mount, open the way in front, and enter Hill City.
"He's Baron Maureen Galio, Lord of the Sand Castle?"
"Sure enough, as young as the legend says!"
"Hehe, young is young, but this Baron Morin is a big demon who really kills people without blinking, Ao Fan City was taken away by him, all the men of the Ao Fan family were beheaded by him on the spot, and all the women were demoted to female slaves by him and given to those untouchable subordinates!"
"Tsk, noble lady, noble lady, it's good to be Baron Morin's subordinate, and I want to taste those tender noble ladies and noble ladies.....
"Hmph, if you are not afraid of death, you can go! Nobles can be humiliated at will? Even down-and-out nobles are not something that we untouchables can touch. Maureen Galio has committed a taboo against the nobles, and he will definitely live for long!"
“......”
At the gate of the city, many civilians, nobles, mercenaries, mercenaries and merchants who saw Morin's carriage discussed a lot, and looked at Morin with curiosity.
The sound of gossip naturally reached Mo Lin's ears. Suddenly found that he had unknowingly become a big celebrity, and his fame had also spread to the city of Hill.
And he also discovered that among the commoners, he had a good reputation, and many people had the intention of following him and becoming his subordinates. However, in the eyes of those nobles and powerful people, he became a great demon who killed people without blinking, and his reputation was very bad.
Worse is worse!
Anyway, Morin can't pee in the same pot with these nobles!
On the contrary, those commoners who were exploited by the nobles were the forces he really relied on, and as for those nobles, they were all the enemies he wanted to take!
.......
The carriage was led all the way to the castle of the Hilliton family, and under the guidance of Ruth's butler, he stepped straight into the main castle building and came to a large conference room.
When I opened the door of the conference room, I was surprised to find that it was full of people, and everyone in this land was a famous person.
More than a dozen barons had all arrived, and they looked at Merlin coldly, and they could feel their malicious gaze from a distance.
Sitting in the chief position was a personable old nobleman, who was none other than the owner of the place, Viscount Hilliton.
Merlin was placed in the last position, and as soon as he sat down, everyone looked at him. I didn't even bother to do the surface work, and looked at him one by one and sneered.
If you are an ordinary person, you have to be frightened to the point of weakness when you are scrutinized by so many barons with malicious eyes. Morin was like a spring breeze, smiling, polite, and couldn't find the slightest mistake in etiquette.
"Baron Morin has arrived, so let's start our meeting!"
As soon as the door closed, Viscount Hilliton coughed lightly and spoke. He nodded to the grand butler Weiss standing behind him, and without him opening his mouth, his grand butler Weiss nodded slightly, and then stepped forward, looked at Merlin with a smile, and made a gesture: "Barons, this is our youngest baron in Hill City, the lord of quicksand castle, Morin Galio!"
Brush Brush Brush!
More than a dozen barons, their eyes swept towards Morin, and everyone sneered, as if they had seen a large piece of fat, and they were about to go under the knife.
