Chapter 458: Arrival
Although the losses were extremely heavy, and most of the manpower was lost, after cleaning up the battlefield, the blackhorned rhinoceros caravan continued to embark on the road to Blackpool City. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Originally, after a bitter battle and the loss of most of the strength, the caravan's situation was the most dangerous. You know, the smuggling channel is like a grassland where the jungle eats the strong. A caravan is badly damaged, like a strong beast being wounded, not only other lions, cheetahs will pounce on them with the smell of blood, but other small forces like jackals and mustaches will continue to come and harass until the beast is completely down, and then devoured by other beasts.
In this case, the option of insurance is to give up most of the goods directly, follow lightly, and quickly return to the town. Only in this way will it be possible to avoid the ensuing attacks and killings.
However, after a slight hesitation, Caselo did not choose to retreat, but chose to move on. On the one hand, if we retreat now, we will be wasting the qualifications for this smuggling transaction. Not only did they completely lose the opportunity to recoup their losses, but if they wanted to re-engage in the smuggling trade, they would need to buy a new pass, which would be costly and could even lead to the bankruptcy of the caravan.
On the contrary, if he can successfully reach Blackpool City this time, he can make an amazing profit by barely losing too many goods. Even if some of these proceeds need to be distributed to Luo Sheng, the remaining proceeds are still enough for Casero to buy enough goods and hire enough guards to complete the return trade. And as long as he can return to the town of Youbao safely, the profits from the two smuggling will be enough for Cascello to rebuild the black-horned rhinoceros caravan, and even grow the team a little bigger.
On the other hand, Casero dared to move forward because Rasson and Verla, two amazingly powerful masters, did not leave after the battle, but chose to stay in the team.
Through his previous battle with the Crocodile Thieves, Cacello has seen the strength of Rason and Vera with his own eyes. Especially the mysterious Luo Sheng, whose strength is far better than that of the mage Hill of the previous team. With such a master in charge, coupled with the status of the elite of Vera Blackpool City, it is enough to deter and resist the risks in the next journey and ensure the safety of the caravan. Even if a powerful force like the Crocodile Tooth Thieves attacked, the caravan side would have a chance to win.
So even though he knew that according to his previous promise, he would give a large amount of income to Luo Sheng after arriving in Blackpool City, but Cacello still chose to follow Luo Sheng and Vera to act together, and regarded the two as guests. Especially for the elite of Vera, the city of Blackpool, Caselo has almost reached the level of 'kneeling and licking'.
For Caselo's hospitality, neither Rason nor Verla had any excuses, but accepted it very calmly. In the Dark Regions, strength is the measure of most things. With the strength of the two of them, in front of the black-horned rhinoceros caravan whose strength was greatly lost and needed shelter, they were fully qualified to enjoy this hospitality.
However, neither of them cared too much about Cancelo's wooing. Luo Sheng didn't look down on Cacello's small situation at all. Move with the caravan, just for convenience. And Vera even looked down on smugglers like Caselo, who relied on the dark elves for food. Although he is polite on the face, in fact, he has no intention of having an in-depth exchange with Cacello and getting closer to him.
Of course, Verla's disdain for Casero does not mean that he is also indifferent to Rason. In fact, after sharing the spoils left by Blake amicably, Verla has shown great 'closeness' to Luo Sheng and is happy to 'make friends' with Luo Sheng. Even if it weren't for the poor conditions on the road, and Luo Sheng didn't have the heart to be romantic, the two might have rolled the sheets together. After all, the dark elves are extremely open in this regard, especially Vera is from the nightingale, has been professionally trained, and is good at serving people in Israel. After Rasheng showed enough strength and value, Vera didn't mind having some intimate relationship with Rasen.
And even if it didn't develop to the level of 'intimacy', Vera quickly got closer to Rason. In just a few days, the two have developed from a strange temporary comrade-in-arms relationship to a close friend who 'talks about everything'. In addition to the origin and purpose that Luo Sheng tried to keep secret, Vera obtained all the information that Luo Sheng was willing to let her know. In another way, he completed the task of collecting information about Luo Sheng.
Of course, when the two sides were in close communication, Luo Sheng also obtained quite a lot of information from Verla. Although Vera, like Luo Sheng, is what should be said and what should not be said, what Luo Sheng needs to know now is only some internal intelligence of the dark elves that does not need to be too confidential, but needs to be more detailed, and these things, Vera does not need to be kept secret.
So on the whole, Luo Sheng and Vera actually do the same thing, on the surface, they are hot, but in fact, they are both exchanging some ordinary information for each other's intelligence while keeping the real secret. It's just that because Luo Sheng has the advantage of having memories of his previous life, he got a little cheaper.
In this constant exchange between the two, the Black Horned Rhino Caravan marched towards Blackpool City day by day. Maybe it's because of Caselo's luck, maybe it's because Blake's head is a deterrent enough. Anyway, since the battle with the Crocodile Tooth Thieves, the journey behind the Black Horned Rhino Caravan has gone quite smoothly.
During the journey of more than ten days, although he encountered an interception by a large thief group, the other party belonged to a more disciplined team, relying on Luo Sheng's strength and Vera's face, the other party just took three carts of ordinary goods and gave up the interception. As for the other small forces, after being killed by Cacello with thunder, they basically didn't dare to come up again. Therefore, when they finally arrived in the sphere of influence of Blackpool City, the cargo loss of the entire caravan was only about 10%, which was smaller than every loss in the past.
After entering the sphere of influence of Blackpool City, the area around the trade route began to become densely populated. As the seventh largest city of the Dark Elves, Blackpool City not only has an astonishing scale of the main body of the city, but also has a fairly wide radiation range. Relying on its great power, Blackpool City firmly ruled this area that was no smaller than the average dukedom. Humans, grey dwarves, dark elves, and even lizardmen, kobolds, and other races are either mixed or sub-clans live in this area.
"It's finally time to arrive in Blackpool City!"
