Chapter 119: Cheers from Dragonfall Town
By the time Edward and Legolas arrived in Dragonfall, the elf was still excited. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As Edward's soulbound minion, he was also able to see the purchase menu and his status bar, and could use Richard's Perceptual Map in Middle-earth. These things are a bit subversive for Legolas.
So, the curious elves were constantly studying the various items in the skill menu, barely saying much along the way.
He also tried to buy a bow that looked good, and was answered that you don't have achievement points and are requesting them from the captain......
Edward glared at him, then nodded no......
"It's amazing...... system, can I get achievement points in the future?" Legolas changed the subject to hide his embarrassment.
"Absolutely. "As a secondary follower, you can also earn achievement points, but a third of them will be given to the captain, and you can also bind three pieces of non-living equipment and have a bound servant." The condition is that this servant must not exceed the elite in rank. ”
Legolas was used to Richard's presence, and he understood the meaning of the battle rank. When Legolas first bound up with Edward, his battle rank was Elite+, and after he learned some skills, he must be promoted to Hero-.
On his journey, Legolas was looking for a profession that suited him, and he saw the profession of a hunter from the world of Azeroth at a glance.
"So Mr. Richard, what I want to ask is, what is a pet in the hunter profession, a servant, or a piece of equipment?"
Richard laughed and said, "That's a good question, although the hunter's pet belongs to the skill skill catch, it is indeed a living form, and he can only be classified as a servant. It takes the power of the plane to carry this lifeform in the Infinity Ring, and it is impossible for you to use this skill to exploit the loopholes. ”
"So I can only have one pet now?" Legolas asked disappointedly, "and once you have a pet, you can't have a servant?"
"That's true for now, but as long as your captain can advance, the Infinity Ring's functionality will be enhanced again, and you can have more pets in the future. ”
"All right, Legolas, my friend, don't be discouraged. Edward smiled and patted Legolas on the shoulder, "Our journey has just begun, and I'm sure it will be even better in the future." ”
"Yes, I think so too. Legolas laughed as well, "Now, let's go see our old friend Bud?"
Dragonfall is now a little different, the once planked bridge has now become a stone bridge, and the town is surrounded by tall walls with several watchtowers and archers.
When Edward and Legolas flew to the Dragonfall gate at the end of the stone bridge, they descended and led Alan to the gate.
The tall outpost-shaped gate was clearly newly built, and the white stone used still emits sunlight, and with the huge dragon head skeleton hanging from the gate, it looks very majestic. The gates have two passages, land and water, and are guarded by dwarves and humans.
It seems that due to the frequent attacks of the orcs recently, there are not many merchants who come to Dragonfall Town, and the people who enter and leave the city gate are also sparse.
"Stand in front! One step further, we're about to attack!" The guards saw the huge Alan, and immediately became vigilant, and began to shout to Edward from a distance, and the archers at the city gate also aimed at Edward and his party with bows.
Edward smiled, raised the star behind him, and made a one-handed sword movement.
"Huh, Captain, why do I feel so familiar with this person?" a dwarf asked the captain of the guard, confused.
"I ...... Quick, quick, blow the horn, and you go and inform Your Majesty Thorin that Edward the Dragon Slayer is here!" the captain of the dwarven guard shouted excitedly at his soldiers.
"Edward the Dragon Slayer!" the guard also shouted, and said in his heart, no wonder it looked so familiar, the statue on the central square of Dragonfall Town looked like this!
The dwarf's loud and low horn sounded, alarming Dragonfall and Ereb in the distance, and then Erebor sounded his horn as well.
Bard, who was already very old, rode out of Dragonfall Town, followed by a middle-aged man.
"Aha! Edward, and Legolas!" Bud's eyes moistened, and he hurriedly jumped off his horse and ran to Edward and Legolas, embracing them.
"You're old, Bud. Edward was also a little impressed, patted Bard on the back, and then looked up and down.
"Yes, I've experienced enough in my life, and it's satisfying to be able to enjoy the last days of my life. Bard didn't ask Edward why he didn't get old, "Birth, old age, sickness and death are the processes we humans must go through, don't feel sorry for me, Edward." ”
Edward was speechless and looked at the middle-aged man who had come out with Bud.
"Remember me? Mr. Edward, I'm Bane. The middle-aged man's eyes were full of wisdom, and his body was very tall and strong, as if he had just finished exercising, and his face was still covered with sweat.
He was dressed in civilian clothes, and on his horse hung a large sword much larger than a normal long sword.
"I almost didn't recognize you, but I didn't expect that brave little boy to be so big now. Edward stepped forward and patted Bane on the shoulder.
"Bane is my pride, he's now the mayor of Dragonfall, and he killed seventeen orcs during the orc attack not long ago!" Bard Sr. laughed, "It's thanks to you, Edward, that he's always admired you, and that's what keeps him motivated to train himself all these years, and even his weapons are similar to yours." ”
"It's my pleasure, Bane. Edward looked at Bane with admiration, "Keep it up and fight for your people and glory!"
"Fight for the people and for glory!" Bane saluted solemnly.
............
Edward and Legolas followed Bard and Bane into Dragonfall, and a large number of Dragonfall citizens came out of the house and watched the legendary dragonslayer with a salute. When Edward and his party walked to the central square, in front of the apparently repaired statue, the crowd around them remembered the enthusiastic cheers.
They felt honored to see the Dragonslayer Warriors who looked exactly like the statue, and they were proud to be the townspeople of Dragonfall Town. The few old men who had witnessed the attack on the town by Smaug and the orcs wept tears of excitement.
"Cheer for our dragon-slaying warriors!" At this time, Thorin and Balin and other dwarves happened to arrive in Dragonfall Town, and after seeing this scene, the dwarven king also felt the same way, and shouted loudly, "I announce that Dragonfall Town will hold a celebration today! ”
The cheers of the populace grew louder as they sincerely thanked the Dwarven King for his protection and support of Dragonfall over the years.
In the midst of this celebration, Edward hugged Thorin and the other dwarves one by one, and Legolas put aside his prejudices and hugged them.
In a festive atmosphere, Edward, Thorin and the others entered the mayor's office and sat down around a round table.
"Edward, it's a pleasure to see you again. Thorin smiled and looked at Bane, "How can you be without wine at this time?"
"Well, well, my majesty, I don't have any wine here, but make an exception. Bane smiled helplessly, and then asked someone to go get the wine.
"Edward, where have you been all these years?"
"Why haven't you changed much? Aren't you human?"
"You look stronger, how the hell do you exercise?"
"Are you married now, do you have children?"
"You ......"
As soon as they heard that they could drink, the dwarves began to ask questions, and there was no room for Edward's answer. When the bottles of wine came up, the bold nature of these dwarves was completely revealed.
"Alright, folks, what shall I say if you ask me that?" said Edward, raising his glass, "Let's not ask anything, let's have a drink first." ”
The dwarves applauded, but after a large glass of wine, the dwarves infected by the festive atmosphere became more active, and only Thorin still maintained the appearance of a king, but did not dissuade him.
Edward did not reveal his whereabouts, and the dwarves asked casually, and no longer bothered with the question.
But as the conversation got closer, the atmosphere at the table began to fall silent.
"Recently, for some unknown reason, the orcs have started to run rampant again, not only in the dark forests, but also in Dragonfall Town, Erebor and Iron Hills, there are reports of orcs appearing. "The people are afraid to leave the town at will, the farmland has been ravaged, the travelers are gradually extinct, the caravan has not been in Dragonfall and Erebor for a long time, and even our goat cavalry patrols are often attacked within the territory. ”
"If this continues, our commercial and material reserves will be dealt a huge blow. ”
"So, I'm here to deal with the rise of the orcs. Edward took out the map and pointed to the location where the Demon Hunter Knights would be stationed, "I will establish a Demon Hunter Knights here, aiming to fight these increasingly rampant orcs and give Middle-earth a safe environment." ”
"I need your help, I need dwarves who are proficient in construction to help me build a fortress here, and at the same time, with Shire, Dongfang Avenue, Mountain Pass, Old Forest Road, Dragonfall Town, and Iron Hills as the center line, I will continue to radiate rangers in all directions, and fight the stragglers of the orcs!"
Thorin and the others looked at the map carefully.
"It's a long line, and you have enough troops?" asked Old Bard.
"It's a long time, but I've already informed Rivendell and the Woodland Kingdom that they will send cavalry to assist us, and I'll also set up a watchtower on this route to deliver the message in the form of beacons to achieve rapid support. Edward said confidently, "As long as the road is smooth, I believe that the wolf cavalry of the orcs will not be the opponent of our Demon Hunter Knights!"
"Very well!Whether it's for justice or the help of friends, we Lone Mountain Dwarves and Iron Hill Dwarves will fully support you!" Thorin agreed without hesitation, "If your battle line and fortress are formed, there will be no more war in our north!"
