Chapter 040: Shadow
It is a fairly densely populated city, surrounded by thick and ancient walls. The pass above the city walls is somewhat broken, and the surface is mottled with the marks of a large number of sword swings, which seems to prove the city's war-torn history.
Historical records record that it was once the capital of the Mir Empire. After the collapse of the Mir Empire, the princes of this continent fought for decades!
"It's really magnificent!" Looking at the majestic, tough and simple city walls in front of him, Favian couldn't help but praise sincerely, after all, this is an era of quite backward technology, and the city in front of him can be described as the limit of mortals.
Favian was now served by a nobleman dressed in gold threads, and his blond hair was flowing loosely. Armed with a black sword, the scabbard is made of extremely precious exotic animal skins. From the inside out, it exudes a noble and elegant temperament.
"Heh, what a handsome aristocratic boy!" said some of the civilians who were entering the city in their hearts when they saw Favian's arrival.
Ignoring the crowd around him, Favian walked straight to the entrance of the main road of the city gate, where the nobles entered the city, and the commoners and merchants could only take the small passages on either side.
"The traveling children of the Desen family, please enter the city. "The guards at the city gate have obviously seen too much of this kind of little nobleman who goes out. It is not very respectful to face Favian, but there is no rudeness.
Favian calmly accepted the inspected coat of arms, put it in his arms, and strode into the political center of the kingdom - the capital of Tuxter!
Any nobleman recognized by the kingdom did not need an entrance fee to enter the outer city of Tuxter.
And the coat of arms was naturally imitated by Favian under the guidance of the Heavenly Dao, his red fire attribute life energy was no joke, and it was naturally not a problem to melt gold and break iron, which was why he started to enter the city when the sky was about to darken.
Between commoners and nobles, Favian finally decided to perform in his true colors, so that it is not easy to be flawed, after all, his temperament is not suitable for disguise as a commoner.
After entering the city, it was prosperous, and a large number of civilians and servants on the auxiliary roads came and went in various shops one after another. However, there are few people on the wide main road, which is a special passage for nobles with titles.
Favian soon saw some wagons in a clearing not far from the city, and many merchants were foaming at the mouth of the city discussing the price. Of course, there were also a few traveling nobles like Favian.
After choosing a seemingly loyal and honest groom, Favien walked straight over.
"To the liveliest tavern in the inner city, the kind that can stay. Favian walked up to him and pulled out the noble coat of arms in his arms.
"Sir, can you see two silver coins, one of which is the entrance fee to the inner city!" the groom seemed to have received a similar order, and soon quoted a more reasonable price.
Don't look at the unusual bustle here, it's just an outer city located in the capital. Most of them were small aristocrats and merchants, commoners. And this place was still more than ten miles away from the inner city, and with his current disguised state, he didn't want to walk through it step by step.
"Okay, let's go now. Favian took out two silver coins from his bosom, handed them to the coachman along with the coat of arms in his hand, and went straight into the carriage.
The coachman was very skilled at placing the coat of arms in the upper right corner of the carriage, otherwise he would not have been able to drive on the main road.
Syllable!
With the sound of a whip, the carriage slowly began to move after Favian felt the carriage shake for a moment.
"I don't know if the book is correct, I hope it's true, otherwise it's really a bit of trouble. Favian, inside the carriage, thought with his eyes closed.
After passing through about three or four rather lively neighborhoods, the carriage finally came to the inner city gate.
"A silver coin!" As soon as the guards finished speaking, the groom skillfully jumped out of the car, took out a silver coin with a smile, and handed it over.
Not long after the carriage moved again, it stopped at the door of a brightly lit tavern, from which a lively noise could be heard.
"Sir, the Green Forest Tavern has arrived, and it meets your requirements. The coachman knocked on the carriage and said to Favian inside.
"Alton, come on, come on, come onγγγ β
"Cheries!Did you too many girls last nightγγγ β
Favian, who had just walked into the tavern, saw two strong men wrestling their wrists, and the shouts and cheering voices of many people around him were overwhelming, making him frown.
Judging by the situation, Arton is the burly man with thick eyebrows and square face, and his appearance is extremely powerful. was in a fairly obvious upper hand, and the shouts and cheers around him seemed to give him more motivation, and he pressed Cheris's hand down step by step.
And although Cheres on the opposite side was surprisingly big, sitting there like a small piece of city wall, but at this time, his face was flushed.
Boom!
"Haha! Cherys, it looks like I'm going to give you the money for today's drink!" Arton shouted as he slammed Cheris's wrist down on the table, stood up, waved his right hand of victory, and shouted. Ignoring his embarrassed face after his defeat...
At this moment, a woman in a burgundy dress slowly walked down from the second floor of the tavern, and when she appeared, the entire tavern was instantly silent.
Wow!wow!
"Arton, it's not a good habit to lie to people. The woman's crisp and numb voice came from the staircase.
Most of the men in the tavern looked at her with heat and lust in their eyes.
The owner of the Green Forest Tavern, Olana, is a beautiful woman who resounded throughout the capital of the kingdom, and no nobles of Tustany did not bow down to her enchanting charm, but after the disappearance of an earl who used means to get her, no one dared to offend her again.
"What Olena-sama said is that not next time. Arton scratched his head in embarrassment, he didn't expect Olena to know about his hidden strength.
After saying this, the woman in the burgundy dress did not care about the reaction of everyone in the tavern in the slightest, but instead fell on Favian, who was standing in the doorway, and writhed her plump and delicate body towards him.
"Sir looks very strange, is it the first time you have come to my Green Forest Tavern? The seductive woman walked up to Favian and chuckled.
He is really a charming goblin, and it will not be easy to protect himself in the quagmire of the capital.
"A rose full of barbs. Favi said in peace.
"Just a passerby who wanted to come in and have a glass of blue Bloody Mary. Favian stared at the seductive woman's eyes tightly, but his mouth was unhurried and unhurried.
"Heavenly Dao, call up her data for me. Fa Wei secretly commanded to the Heavenly Dao.
"Character: Olena
Rank: Wizard Apprentice of the Second Class
Bloodline: Human (100%)
Talents: None
Exercise: Unknown botanical meditation method
Strength: 2.1 Dexterity: 2.2 Constitution: 2.4 Spirit: 4.7
Status: Healthy!"
"Heh, it's actually a second-class wizard apprentice, it seems that he has found the right place. Favi thought to himself.
There was no shortage of people in the tavern who had pointed ears and turned their faces away at the request of him, as if they had never seen him before.
"Yo, my honorable guest, the blue Bloody Mary can be tasted in the inner chamber. A pair of big eyes that were fascinated blinked twice in surprise, the blue Bloody Mary is the most expensive "wine" here, and it is rare to order this kind of "wine" when you come.
"Everyone, have fun, it's half off today!" said the extremely charming woman with a smile as she stretched out her white arm and waved it gently.
The people in the tavern instantly boiled, excitedly cheering the name of the charming woman, and some even threw the hats on their heads!
Seeing everyone's reaction, the charming woman laughed and ignored it, but led Favion through the curtain behind the tavern counter and into a labyrinthine hallway, which was still quite dim despite the many oil lamps on both sides of the corridor.
"It seems to be facing down. It didn't take a few steps before Favian sensed that the place he was going to should be underground.
At this time, the charming woman walked in front of Favian, I don't know if it was intentional, her round and straight buttocks writhed rhythmically, as if she was intentionally tempting Favian behind.
"A strange fragrance has been detected around, and it has a psychedelic effect on the rank below the Grand Knight. Tiandao's voice responded in a timely manner.
Favian didn't say anything, just looked at the charming woman with a little indifference. If the other party is a little unruly, he doesn't mind turning it upside down.
Fortunately, after walking a certain distance, after noticing that there was no effect on Favian, Olena put away those small movements, and soon led Favian to his destination, which seemed to be a dark hut with no light in it.
Knock! Knock!!
"Come in. An old voice came from inside the house.
"Teacher, there's a guest who wants blue-level intelligence. After leading Favian into the house, the charming woman said respectfully.
By the light of the oil lamp outside the door, Favian could see the face of the old man in front of him clearly.
It was a gray-haired old man, his face wrinkled like a ravine, but his hands holding the glass test tube did not tremble, and his eyes were staring at it intently, not caring at all about Favian's arrival.
"Heavenly Dao, test his data. Favian sensed an aura stronger than Eve in him.
"Character: Unknown?
Rank: (Pseudo)Level 1 Wizard
Bloodline: 3% unknown plant-based bloodline
Talents: Unknown?
Exercise: Unknown botanical meditation method
Strength: 8.1 Dexterity: 7.3 Constitution: 8.5 Spirit: 11.7
Status: Poisoned!"
Favian's eyes froze, and the old man in front of him was actually in a state of poisoning.
"Why a (pseudo)first-level wizard?" Seeing that the old man ignored his arrival and was still doing his own thing, he knew that now was not the time to ask questions.
And the posture of the charming woman is the same as after entering the door, still so respectful, without the slightest change.
"According to my tests, this person should have taken a special potion to forcibly break the wizard's bottleneck, and the toxins in his body seem to have been produced as a result. Judging by the wizarding books recorded, a regular wizard would form a natural stance, which is a symbol of a formal wizard, and he obviously did not. Tiandao explained lightly in his mind, his tone full of mockery, "There is no room for promotion for this kind of person. β
"It's no wonder that shadows can spread all over this continent, and a branch has the combat power of a pseudo-first-level wizard. How strong the headquarters should be!" Favian's heart was filled with a sense of urgency, and the appearance of this old man shattered the trace of arrogance that he had just broken through the Black Iron Knight.
