Chapter 315: Nit City
NET is the largest city near the Gold Coast and the only one without walls.
The reason why Nit City does not have walls is not because it is safe and prosperous, and there is no need to build walls, but because the two major organizations entrenched on the Gold Coast do not allow it.
NEET City sits somewhere between the two organisations and is itself the most geographically located location on the Gold Coast Harbour. The two organizations have fought hundreds of battles for this city. The city changed hands several times and was destroyed three times. However, because the geography is so important, each time it is destroyed, a larger city is built on the ruins.
Later, the two organizations finally could not bear this slow war of attrition, and decided to temporarily put aside the ownership of Nit City, and temporarily transfer it to the joint management of the two organizations, and the two sides divided the streets. In order to prevent the other side from mobilizing troops to capture the city and defend it, the two organizations did not build any walls for the city when they rebuilt the city.
Of course, it cannot be said that the city of Nit itself is unprotected. At least it has more garrisons than any other city, and the garrisons of the two factions are unmatched by other cities.
Of course, in order to maintain the position of NEET City on the entire Gold Coast and even on the entire West Coast of Negan, and in order to attract more merchant ships to dock here, the two organizations coincidentally enacted strict laws in NEET City, and anyone who fought in NEET City, especially in the trading area, for whatever reason, would be arrested by patrols sent by both sides. And the best consequence of being arrested is also to dig in the mine for the rest of your life.
Of course, this law was mainly for the Neganites, and for the foreign caravan members, they had another set of laws. Although hard labour is rarely punished, large fines are inevitable.
As a result, thanks to the joint efforts of the two organizations, NEET City became the safest city on the entire West Coast of Negan. This also attracted more merchant ships to dock here, and the two major organizations naturally made a lot of money. While they were gradually satisfied, they also set their eyes on the other half of the NET city occupied by the other party, thinking about how to get the chassis in the other party's hands into their own hands.
Just when the two major organizations had their own evil intentions and their own little calculations, things suddenly changed.
The arrival of a fleet shatters the noisy and peaceful daily life of the city of Nit. When the white sails painted with golden irises and the tall mage tower were imprinted, the two organizations had already been informed of the situation by the watchtower.
After hearing about the situation, the high-level leaders of the two organizations invariably sent the most elite men and horses of their own organizations to the side of the port wharf, waiting for the other party's warship to dock.
"Collect the sails and drop anchor. With a shout, the huge white sails were slowly lowered, and the huge iron anchor was thrown into the water, and the ship was firmly docked in front of a deep-water trestle, a wooden ladder with handrails was lowered from the ship, and a soldier in white uniform ran down the ladder from the ship, and went straight to the leaders of the two organizations who were waiting in front of the dock.
"The two are the main controllers of NET City, Dais of the Minotaur Alliance and Monica of the Golden Council. Please come aboard with me, our chief has something to say to you. After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for the other party to answer, just turned around and left.
Minotaurs have always been known for their hot tempers, and in the face of such rude behavior of the other party, a minotaur standing behind Days immediately wanted to get angry, but was stopped by Days reaching out. Therefore, just now, he felt a faint but majestic energy fluctuation faintly coming from the ship. Ordinary people may not be able to perceive it, but Dyce, who is standing at the peak of the gold level, understands what this energy fluctuation represents—a legendary powerhouse.
Maybe he is also very dissatisfied in his heart, but when he is facing a legendary powerhouse, then no matter how much dissatisfaction he has, he can only suppress his dissatisfaction in the bottom of his heart, and he must have a smile on his face, otherwise, the opponent's thunder blow is likely to wipe out the organization he worked so hard to create, this is the strength of the legendary powerhouse. It is also a law that countless various organizations, large and small, verify with their own corpses.
Days glanced at Monica, the harpy who was standing not far from him, and found that the other party was also looking towards him, and it seemed that the other party had also noticed the strong energy fluctuations on the ship. The two sides exchanged glances, stared at each other for a moment, and then retracted their gazes as usual.
After turning back to the two most silent and steady guards, Dyce pulled the deputy leader aside and told them that there must be no provocation or dissatisfaction until he returned. After admonishing him, Days and his two guards caught up with the soldier in white uniform.
Monica on the side of the Golden Council did the same, except that the two guards she brought with her, one of them were Night Elves and the other was a Naga.
The leaders of the two organizations followed the soldier up the gangway, down the deck and straight to the interior of the ship, and down the winding passage of the ship's interior to a tall oak door, where the soldier turned to Days and Monica and said, "Only the two of you can enter, and the accompanying guards can only wait here." ”
Days and Monica were not surprised at all, and after a few words of advice to their men, they entered the room at the signal of the soldier.
It was a very large room, and it seemed to exert a constant spatial magic, otherwise such a large room would have had a great impact on the structure of the ship.
Huge crystal chandeliers glow softly, and pure white wool blankets are laid out on the teak floors. If it weren't for the automatic application of a clean-up spell after entering the door, I'm afraid that two lines of pale gray footprints would have been left on the carpet at this time.
On all four walls hung tapestries woven with intricate patterns, and on one side of the wall lay a huge bookshelf filled with various books and scrolls that emitted powerful energy fluctuations.
In the center of the room, two men in robes are playing a board game facing each other. On the small table beside them were fruit bowls filled with this fresh fruit and all kinds of pastries.
If it weren't for the porthole on one side that meant they were on board, it meant that it was in a mage's mansion, and Dais and Monica would have believed it.
While they were arranging the room in large quantities, a purple-robed mage sitting on the left moved one of the pieces in his hand forward two squares, and then said, "General, haha, Master Somla, you lost again." ”
Somla, who was sitting opposite him, reluctantly took off a cloth bag from his body and threw it over, "No, your chess skills are growing really fast, wait for me to grow some next time and I'm coming to you to compete for the winner, now let's do the things in front of us first." ”
"Well," the purple-robed mage sitting across from him turned to look at Dais and Monica, who were standing in the center of the room, with a slight disdain, and then said in a slightly arrogant tone, "You are the actual controllers of Nit City?"
