Chapter 102: Secret Meeting

When the war between Falkenridge and Stacy was in full swing, Ello, the true ruler of Falkenridge, secretly left the land he already knew.

Of course, he wasn't worried that Falkenridge would be defeated and then Stacy would take the opportunity to threaten him.

Let's not say that Kenridge would fail so quickly when he had a blood transfusion at any cost, and even if he failed, Iroh would have his own way of dealing with the aftermath - but it was certainly not something that a weak person like running away would do.

In fact, he had been invited by a man to attend a secret meeting.

And Iroh believes that this meeting may completely change the situation in the entire Western Continent......

"It's finally here, the city of Droja of the Walla Empire. ”

Half a month later, Iroh, who was in human form, got out of the hired carriage and looked at the city gate not far away and muttered to himself. As a city farther north than Zakiv, Iroh could faintly perceive the change in temperature along the way - from the humid heat characteristic of the southern climate to the dry and cold of the north, which was indeed a bit of an amazing experience.

Yes, the meeting took place in a city in the Vola Empire!

Although the city of Droya is located at the southern tip of the Vola Empire, it is also separated by thousands of kilometers from Falkenridge. And the territory of the Walla Empire is at least twenty times the size of Falkenridge, so it is conceivable where the northernmost part of the Walla Empire is......

In the Vola Empire, this is only a small city, but if it is placed in Falkenridge, it can already be regarded as a first-tier city second only to the royal capital, and in some places it is not even inferior to Zakif. And cities like Droja are not known to be dozens in the territory of the Vola Empire!

The gap between the four empires and the rest of the country is often so obvious.

The obsidian with the effect of destroying demons has been cast into the shell of Droya City, and the walls of more than ten meters high are covered with dried blood, and there are also many traces of beasts and demon birds scratched by their minions, which appear to be scarred, but they have always stood tall.

Advanced magic crystal cannons and improved ultra-long-range magic cannons are placed on the city walls, which are patrolled by soldiers and adventurers who have come to help guard the walls.

There are endless people coming and going at the city gates, and all kinds of intelligent races come and go, dwarves, elves, goblins, halflings, orcs...... It was extremely lively.

Instead of using his favorite gray-clad human boy, Iroh took on the appearance of a half-elf with black hair and black eyes. After all, after the royal capital incident twelve years ago, his appearance was not unknown, and considering the secrecy of this meeting, he decided to change his appearance.

Anyway, for dragons, their appearance when they turn into humanoids can be changed at will.

That is, if she thinks it's necessary, Iroh can even appear as a woman!

Now the appearance of this half-elf is ordinary, but the aura emanating from his body has a faint sense of intimidation, which attracts the attention of the surrounding pedestrians, and there is a look of awe in his eyes.

That's what Iroh hopes to achieve. In the group of adventurers, there is a group of people who either have high strength, or have their own secrets, or have other reasons, in short, they do not accompany others, but choose to act alone.

The danger of the wild in the world of Elohim is known to almost all children, and often those adventurers who dare to act alone must have enough means to protect themselves, at least not too weak. In the same way, they also have a more or less eccentric personality.

- Great strength, eccentric personality, that's exactly what Iroh wants people to think. Along the way, he did use this method to save some trouble.

And this method is undoubtedly effective now, Iroh has not yet paid the entrance fee, and the city gate guards do not even intercept him, and directly politely signal him to enter.

Just kidding, there are not many of those arrogant city gate guards in reality, and the group of adventurers is really a group with extremely huge strength and identity differentiation. You must know that adventurers can also work part-time, maybe the little man you scolded today who seems to be submissive is a legendary powerhouse.

"Sure enough, there are many more people to go out and walk, and the inheritance of memories is just an old-fashioned data transmission after all. ”

Silently sighing in his heart, Iroh began to look around. As he said, although many things are mentioned in the memory of inheritance, knowing and seeing with one's own eyes are often different experiences.

Not far from Droya City is the Asaka Forest, one of the three major elven gathering places in the Western Continent.

However, those elves usually only operate in the deepest part of the forest, and the forest is divided by a magical barrier, so the average adventurer will not strayed into elven territory.

On the periphery of the forest, all kinds of products are quite abundant, and the strength of the demonic beasts is relatively weak, so Droya City has naturally become a good gathering point, and adventurers from other places often come here to replenish - not to mention that the elves love nature, in the world of Elohim, the elves are basically vassals of humans like dwarves and goblins. Who cares about that kind of thing now, except for some particularly stubborn elves?

Therefore, there are many people waiting at the city gate every day, hoping to become a guide or intelligence dealer for the new adventurer team, and then make a small profit.

At this moment, a goblin who looked like he had just come of age rushed up to Eloh, performed a nondescript courtesy, and then squeezed out a flattering smile.

"Let me guess, you want a job?"

Halfway through, Iroh didn't have a murderous intent, but showed a playful smile. Although it didn't fit the dragon's life-and-kill characteristics, he needed to keep a low profile now, and naturally he wouldn't be reckless.

And...... The goblin reminded him of Raja and Rhodes, and though he may not have had a good life, there was still a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Perhaps, we can try to expand the influence of the Yanlong Church here?

The goblin, of course, didn't know that Iroh's thoughts were running away, and he stammered to introduce himself, "Uh, yes, yes...... My name, my name is Elsie, do you need guidance into the city?"

Of course, Iroh knew what Elsie meant, and although she was only here for a meeting, maybe ...... You can start with this city so that you can influence the Walla Empire in the future.

With this in mind, a silver coin slashed through the air in a graceful arc of silver and landed accurately on Elsie's hand

In the western continent, copper, silver, and gold are generally used in three currencies, and the exchange rate is one to one hundred. Under normal circumstances, in a small third-tier city like Droya City, as an ordinary family of three, the monthly expenditure is only a few silver coins.

"Thank you, sir! Look at this generous action, you must be a real big man!"

Elsie, who noticed the appearance of the coin in his hand, suddenly showed joy, and the previous slight uneasiness was quickly replaced by flattery, and he directly entered the state-I have to say, in this race that is famous for seeing the wind and steering the rudder, a goblin who wants to observe words and colors as his life skill is simply handy at flattering others, and he blurts out sycophants without even thinking about it.

“...... It looks like you're coming to this city for the first time, so please allow Elsie to do your best!"

"Alright, that's enough for the praise, let's get started. ”

Iroh had to wave his hand, stopping Elsie from continuing. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have really found it hard to believe that an ordinary-looking, even somewhat restrained goblin would be so engaged once he entered the working state.

But this seems to be an ability that everyone in this race has, and that was the case with the original Raja. It's just that this goblin named Elsie is obviously even more unsatisfactory than Raja, so he has also developed a more sophisticated flattery skill.

"I'm so sorry, please forgive Elsie's nagging, I'm so thrilled to suddenly meet someone as kind and generous as you......"

Elsie grunted in amusement, and the flattery on her face was heavier than enough to make any patron think he was a king, even if he was just an ordinary traveler.

Of course, Elsie was not the only one who planned to act as a guide to enter the city, looking at the silver coin that Elsie quickly put away and the "fat sheep" of Ello, the other people at the city gate showed regret in their eyes, but they had to disperse and wait for the next adventurer again.

This is an unwritten rule in this industry, otherwise there will be chaos.

"Dear lord, where do you like it, and I can introduce it to you?"

Elsie's tone was more respectful and humble, not only because of Elo's generous hand, but also because he could feel that the half-elf in front of him, who was not much different in age from him, was an adventurer who was not weak.

Considering that Iroh is a lone wanderer again, this strength may be overestimated by a few points.

In short, if you touch his moldy head, maybe you will have to say goodbye to this shit life in advance today.

Of course, even if her life is really bad, Elsie doesn't plan to say goodbye in advance - it's almost the idea of every goblin living at the bottom of society.

Moreover, although Iroh has an ordinary face and is young, he has the air of a superior person. Elsie had the privilege of seeing the lord of Droya City from afar, and he felt that the lord who came from a duke's family could not compare with the dignity of Ello.

"It's very likely that this is a young powerhouse in the big family, maybe a member of the royal family of the Vola Empire, who is traveling around the continent. Elsie guessed in her heart.

It's like a young eagle has to go through wind and rain before it can grow into an eagle that fights the sky. This kind of thing is very common, and it is also prevalent on the western continent.

In fact, this is also one of the reasons why the strength of the group of adventurers is so differentiated, maybe a sloppy uncle will become the heir to the throne after tidying up!

All in all, no matter who you despise, don't despise adventurers at will, this is already an unwritten rule in the world of Elohim.

"Let's go to the Lex Inn. ”

Eloh's goal is clear, because the agreed meeting place is a bit special, and he can't go there at any time, so the first thing is to find a place to live first.

In this way, Elsie led the way, giving a detailed account of Droya's situation by the way, but he did not notice that far behind them, a man who seemed to have no features and could never be found again when thrown into the crowd was staring at them.

"Let me try it on behalf of the Lord first, your strength......"

The man muttered under his breath, then blended into the crowd and vanished.
