Chapter 10: Ron Town
The six men stopped breathing when Hulk arrived, their injuries already life-threatening, all supported by faith and will.
Kevin didn't leave the survivors with time to be sentimental, ordering: "Hurry up and bury their bodies and set off in five minutes." ”
The smell of blood in the camp was very strong, and if more wolves were to be drawn, with the current injuries of the people, it would inevitably cause more casualties.
He squatted down and used his remaining right hand to dig out the soil continuously, his face calm, but his heart rolled like a tidal wave.
He's only been around for a few days, and it's impossible to say how much sadness the death of these six people has caused him, even though they died protecting Kevin.
But the lame old White and the adventurous Biller, these fresh lives came to an abrupt end, but he was greatly shocked.
"If I had knight-level strength, or became a wizard, how could I almost be killed by the wolves? Strength, strength, everything is because my strength is not enough!"
Most of Kevin's previous life was peaceful and peaceful, and he had to fight with wild beasts hand-to-hand, and the thirst for power in his heart was infinitely magnified at this moment.
Miss Esther wept and refused to go. Randall interrupted his thoughts and said in a deep voice.
He was immediately disgusted, this kind of aristocratic child who grew up in a greenhouse, thinking that he was the center of the world. It's okay to be arrogant and domineering at times, but now I don't know how to advance or retreat, it's really like a pig.
He walked briskly to the carriage, and as soon as he stepped onto the plank, he heard Esther's cry.
"If I don't come out with you, I'm still in the castle, how could this happen? ”
Kevin pulled Esther out of the corner and pinched her cheek, increasing the force of his hand, forcing Esther's eyes to look at him.
Say word by word: "Shut up! Your life was saved by us, and if you want to die, I'll throw you out of the car right now." ”
Blood dripped from his face down his hair onto Esther's clothes, and he was horrified with the heat that had not yet dissipated.
Esther stayed where she was and stopped crying, stunned and overwhelmed.
People do do do some disqualified things after receiving a huge mental shock, but Kevin is not in the mood to persuade her at all, this way is rough but effective.
Stepping out of the carriage, the Hulk in the camp had returned, and he had returned to his normal appearance, carrying a huge wolf head in his hand, which was the same wolf that attacked them.
The crowd worked together to bury the bodies of the six, and Kevin sprinkled some yellow powder on the mound, carefully remembering their names, and did not stop again.
.........
Three days later, the convoy left the Vine steppe.
The mountains in the distance are majestic and straight, reaching into the sky, and in the deep sea of clouds, you can vaguely see the glaciers hanging above the peaks and mountains, and the vast air is blowing in your face.
The town of Ron is located at the beginning of the Cold Mountain Gorge and to the east of the Carstur Mountains, and if the Rasmus continent is compared to a house, then the Carstur Mountains are the roof of the houses.
Whether it is a wizard, a bloodliner, or a bird, in the process of climbing this mountain, they will encounter an impassable barrier.
Legend has it that Mount Kaztur is a pillar that supports heaven and earth, and the height of the mountain is the height of the sky, and Rhea, one of the founding gods, lives on the top of the mountain and overlooks all the people of Rasmus.
Kevin has reservations about whether Rasmus has gods or not, after all, all his insights come from books, and the accounts of books can also be false.
Endless hills have replaced the same grasslands. Affected by the cold snap in the cold mountain valley, the temperature is low, and the plants are mostly coniferous, even though it is summer, Kevin has put on a cotton coat.
He lay on his back on the bed, sighing at the strength of his blood. In addition to the left arm and thigh, some of the wounds have granulation tissue at the bottom and edges, and some have even scabbed over, which will heal in a few days.
Kevin tried to make a fist with the five fingers of his left hand, but the palm of his hand was unusually stiff, and he tried several times without success, and his mood became low.
Randall tells him that only the healing spells performed by a formal wizard can restore Tesuji completely.
Five or six paths converged to form the avenue leading to Rontown, along which caravans traveled and came.
The wagons were loaded with all sorts of animal skins, spices, weapons, and other goods, and the merchants who were familiar with each other would talk to each other through the wagons, apparently often passing this trade route.
The town of Ron is already ahead, and the ten-meter-high city wall is built along the mountain, which is imposing, and the town is crowded with people, and the clamor of the people is coming and going. Due to its strategic location, Ron Town is very commercially developed and is about the same size as a medium-sized city.
Kevin had already instructed the convoy to remove the family badge and flag, and the bright silver armor on the sergeants and horses was put in the carriage, disguised as ordinary mercenary escorts, and with the current state of the convoy, it was best not to cause unnecessary trouble.
On the way, Randall indirectly reminded him that Louis, the lord of Ron Town, was an extremely greedy man with unpredictable hearts, and Kevin had speculated about others with the most vicious mentality.
The Kingdom of Turin was not so much a feudal system as a city-state, with the central government unable to centralize power at the local level, and the lords acting in their own territories as they could.
Randall took twenty-eight silver coins out of his money bag and gave them to the guards at the gates.
Lewis made it possible for non-natives to pay a silver coin equal to the number of heads of the town to enter Ron Town, which he relied on to support a thousand-strong guard.
A short soldier at the door looked down at the convoy and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Our mercenary group has been tasked with escorting our employer through the cold mountains and valleys. Randall said as he handed the silver coin to the soldier.
The soldier took the silver coin, circled the convoy twice, and said in a strange manner: "There are so many horses, but you have to pay thirty more silver coins to get in." ”
Thirty silver coins can meet the expenses of an ordinary family of four for two months, and an old horse is only twenty silver coins, which is clearly extortion.
"You!"
"What are you doing, this is Ron Town, do you want to break the rules of Lord Louis's system?" the soldier jumped to his feet, his voice loud, like a lizard jumping up and down.
Before Randall could get angry, a calm voice came from the carriage
"Since it is Lord Louis's rules, it is natural to abide by them, and this money will be added to the reward for the mission when I arrive at my destination. ”
Randall had to pull out thirty silver coins and throw them over.
The soldier took the money satisfied: "Okay, okay, you guys go in." ”
