Chapter 130: Quest World Prologue
Xiongguan City is built according to the mountain, the length and width are all 100 miles, the side facing the central hinterland is 80 zhang high, and the side facing the Warcraft Mountain Range is 100 zhang high, the runes on it are all over, flashing faint luster from time to time, it is obviously an unknown defensive formation, standing under the city, Ye Wushuang is as small as an ant, and he doesn't need to try to know how strong the city wall is, anyway, he can't break it anyway.
The city gate in front of him is more than ten zhang wide and thirty zhang high, like a huge mouth that selects people and devours, and the city and the mountain are integrated as a whole, as if it has existed since ancient times, Ye Wushuang is very suspicious that the person who built this city is flying at a high altitude to overlook the design, otherwise how can it be so harmonious, stabilized his mind and walked towards the city defense army.
The entrance was divided into two places by the city guards, one side was wide for caravans and soldiers to pass through, and the other side was very narrow for only one person to pass, and there was a square table behind several sergeants guarding the door, a middle-aged clerk with a beard sat behind the table and was in charge of recording, and next to him stood a capable young man, who held a palm-sized translucent white spar and swung it at the pedestrians whenever the clerk asked pedestrians, which was ...... Lie detectors?
Probably because the workload was too great and he was a little tired, the middle-aged man didn't even raise his head when it was Ye Wushuang's turn to step forward, and asked while writing: "Name, where do you come from, can there be a way to clear the customs, what is the matter with Xiongguan City?"
"Ye Wushuang, ranger, city defense. Ye Wushuang only uttered three words.
When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately raised his head with a smile on his face: "Young man, you have ambition! Ye Wushuang is right, your information has been entered, come, wear the identification bracelet, and you can have free food and accommodation in Xiongguan City in the future, now you need to go to the military camp in the city to do an ability test, and then decide where to go, follow the signs on the road, and you will be able to reach the military camp soon." โ
Ye Wushuang nodded and took a purple bracelet and put it on, this thing is very elastic and should not be easy to damage, he heard on the way that Xiongguan City is very welcome to young people who take the initiative to participate in the city defense, after all, who doesn't want the cannon fodder for nothing, but there are still many people who come to participate in the city defense, because it is not only the beasts that come to attack the city, but also the monsters and orcs, and the materials on the monsters are very useful, and they can refine armor, Weapons and elixirs, orcs also have a lot of good things, usually if you want to get these benefits, you have to venture deep into the Warcraft Mountains, now as long as you help defend the city, you can get the reward of materials, and you can also go out of the city to pick up items between the wars, and you can also get the heavy reward of the empire after the end of the city, money, knighthood, fields, Not to mention the beauties, there are also high-level martial arts and magic books, and even a place to study at the Imperial Academy, which is a good thing to climb to the sky, and many young people also hope to become famous in the first battle, so in the eyes of ordinary people, this death is also a good experience.
The buildings in Xiongguan City are magnificent, dozens of zhang high halls and watchtowers abound, twelve hundred-zhang high magic towers stand majestically, you can see it from afar, the military camps all over the city erect all kinds of flags, pedestrians everywhere are in a hurry but orderly, at this time the whole city is a soldier, there are almost no old and weak women and children, there are tens of millions of regular troops, the atmosphere is tense and high-spirited, people are enthusiastic, and they can't wait for the moment of fierce battle to come early.
The streets are bustling with people of all colors, white-skinned, yellow-skinned, The dark-skinned, as well as the elves with long and slender figures, light green skin, and dark green plant patterns on their foreheads, and the dwarves who are extremely short but have broad shoulders and thick muscles and knots, their height is about one meter two at most, and they all have beards that are tied to their hair, and most of them carry large axes with blades of more than one meter and five meters on their backs, at least four or five hundred catties, and when they walk up, they look around majesticly, as if they are giants, except for elves, no one dares to approach them within three feet.
Ye Wushuang saw it interestingly, and then he was attracted by the rows of shops on the street. Weapon shops, armor shops, jewelry stores, magic goods stores, bookstores, grocery stores, etc., thought about the new world should start with goods, see what people use most often, and what is the price level, if you come across useful things, you can exchange some, anyway, the things here can be brought back to the real world, he randomly picked a shop and walked in.
This is a weapons shop, as the so-called don't look at it and don't know, I was startled when I saw it, there were only two knives and three swords in the spacious and bright store, and the others were all firearms, and the long guns and short guns were all on the shelves, making Ye Wushuang think that he had returned to Sag's arsenal! How can this gun be fired? Can it be fired?
The shopkeeper of the weapons shop was a shrewd middle-aged man, and he could naturally see that this new customer was a rookie who had never seen the world, and as soon as he entered the door, he was surprised that the weapon shop had no swords, bows and axes, only firearms, but seeing that he seemed to have used firearms in his posture with a gun, he greeted him with great interest and asked: "May I ask you, sir, I don't know which firearm you like? These are all from the goblin master's masterpieces." โ
Ye Wushuang didn't want to go around the bend with him, and he didn't know how many days he could stay in the copy world, time was very precious, "Why do you only have firearms here instead of selling swords, bows and axes?"
Sure enough, the shopkeeper did not answer directly, but asked a question: "You should be the first time to Xiongguan City, right?"
"Yes, I'm a ranger, and it's my first time here. โ
"It's no wonder, it's the first time you came, you don't know the situation here, I'm different from other weapon shops here, I only sell firearms, because this is Xiongguan City, you have to deal with the beasts attacking the city, those weapons can't go far, every time the beasts attack the city is overwhelming, no one can hold a sword to stop the beast tide, even the sword master can't, so the people here use long-range weapons. โ
Ye Wushuang suddenly realized: "I see! But this gun is not even far from rifling? I think it will hit a dozen feet at most." โ
"Chambered ...... I don't know what you're talking about, it's probably your hometown term, right? My gun is the work of the goblin master, although it is also gunpowder excitation, but the bottom of the gun is embedded with the impact array specially developed by the goblin clan, the bullet can be as far as a hundred zhang, the hitting area is three zhang in a radius, the power is weaker, can not break the scale armor of the general beast, but the effect of ten thousand guns is different, of course, the common problem of this gun is that you have to change the barrel after a hundred shots, I can't lie to you, so you want to buy a gun in addition to full of lead bullets, iron bullets and gunpowder, at least you have to buy three barrels, how about it, you are new to it, I will give you a cheaper, how about the gunpowder delivery๏ผโ
I'll just say, a gun without rifling barrel can shoot a few shots! Sure enough, the service life is very short, but the impact circle is very interesting, why don't you learn it? If you teach them the principle of rifling yourself...... He shook his head, he came to the copy world to do a mission, not to change history, it is reasonable to be a strong individual in the siege war, but if the balance of the battle is subverted, the human race crushes the orcs, I'm afraid it's not a good thing, the human high-level here is also very scheming, first unite the weak to expel the strong, and then rule the world again, if the orcs are really exterminated, then the other races will not be better, everything can not be done, just like the grassland kills all the wolves, mice and rabbits will become disasters, grabbing forage and grain, starving cattle and sheep, and finally forcing the herdsmen into a desperate situation, you still don't stretch your hand too long, like in the novel, tampering with history at every turn to create a new situation for the future of mankind is too.
He smiled gently: "Thank you for the introduction, but I'm a magician, it's not convenient to use these, goodbye!"
"Oh! it turned out to be the honorable Mr. Magician, it's okay, thank you for coming!" the shopkeeper politely sent him out of the weapons shop.
The armor store should be the same, so I won't go, what does the jewelry store sell? It won't be a monopoly on women's products, why do so many men go in?
