The world may be different, but people always have the same surname.

There has never been love and hate for no reason, nor has there been loyalty at no cost, and a group of bear hammers such as Rock Hammer are obedient to Leon, not because he is born with the spirit of a king, but by relying on his own strength, contributions to the tribe, and sincere and attentive actions, etc.

Therefore, in his attitude towards the follower of Akram, Leon held the same principle, giving enough benefits and hope for the future in exchange for the least loyalty during the journey, rather than forcing the other through the contract signed by the two parties in unequal circumstances.

This is also one of the means to control the subordinates, of course, Leon hopes that he has as many talents as possible like Akram, but it must be in the case of you and me, otherwise it is better not to.

Undoubtedly, his magnanimity touched the young magician so deeply that he did not know how to answer.

"It's still a long way, you can think about it slowly, my promise will always work!" Leon smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Brother Lei, wait for me!"

Suddenly, there was an urgent shout from behind.

Leon, Rock Hammer and the others were stunned for a moment, and they all looked back.

I saw that the bushes dozens of meters away behind were shaking violently, and a figure rushed out of it, and it was a fire hammer.

The little bear hammer carried a bow and arrows on his back, and a beast skin bag in his hand, and ran all the way panting, and when he saw Leon, he said loudly: "Brother Lei, I want to go to Tormond City with you!"

This guy actually followed Leon's team all the way!

"Nonsense!" Leon frowned, and said with a straight face: "Go back to the tribe quickly, I won't take you to the Kingdom of Beamon!"

"But the Elder has agreed!" Bear Hammer cried out with his head tilted, "If you don't take me, I'll always follow you!"

Leon couldn't laugh or cry, it is estimated that Elder Munstein was also pestered by him before agreeing, and with his surname, he would really do such a thing.

"Forget it, since the elder agrees, you can go with you!" Leon said solemnly, "But you must obey my orders, if you mess around, I would rather go back to the tribe than take you with me!"

"Yay!" the bear hammer jumped three feet high, and climbed onto the back of a gray camel with his hands and feet.

Since Leon's party was disguised as a small caravan, in addition to each person having a mount, there were several gray camels loaded with goods that were actually supplies on the road, and it was not a problem to bring a fire hammer.

"When you get to the vicinity of Blackstone, I'll buy you a cloak, and you must honestly not reveal your identity along the way!" Leon shook his head helplessly.

For this bear hammer, Leon has always been more fond of it, so he did not insist on opposing it, and it is a good thing to let him go with him to meet the world.

Through the sparse woods, you can vaguely see the vast plain ahead, which belongs to the territory of the human race.

"Boss, I've thought about it..."When the group was about to walk out of the forest, Akran suddenly said: "No matter what choice I make in the future, this time I will definitely do my best to help you complete the journey!"

"That's the best!" Leon grinned, his gaze off into the distance.

Although the road ahead is full of ups and downs and dangers, as long as you have hope and goals in your heart, then you have nothing to fear!

.........

The clear sky was as blue and pure as if it had been washed, and because the snow had just fallen, the snow on the plains had not yet completely melted, and there was mottled and bare earth everywhere, white, green, yellow, and black in a variety of colors, and from a distance it looked like a huge palette.

The roaring of the Nucang River swells east from one side of the plain, creating large swamps on both sides of the riverbank, and although it is winter, many egrets and waterfowl can still be seen flying and dancing in the swamps, searching for food.

On a barely paved road, a caravan hurried by.

Leon and the others had been away from the Wuthering Forest for four days, and after a night and a long journey, they were not far from Farriel City.

The farther east we went, the closer we got to the Terran settlements, the villages and towns on the plains gradually increased, and the roads were lined with neatly spaced wheat fields.

The wheat has long been harvested, and the piles of wheat stacks are an eternal sight on the winter plains, and the little black shadows in the distance are scattered farmhouses, which have a rustic atmosphere.

In order to avoid trouble and the danger of revealing their identities, Leon and the others camped in the wilderness, and the wind and food and sleeping in the open were quite arduous along the way.

"Beyond that hill, you can see the city of Fariel!" Akram exclaimed, pointing to a rolling hilly area not far away.

The magician was born on the outskirts of Farir City and grew up in Farir City, but when he saw that he was about to return to the city, there was no excitement on his face, and his brown eyes were full of complicated looks.

Everyone couldn't help but pick up speed, and it didn't take long to cross the hills.

A majestic city immediately appeared in front of everyone's eyes, standing on the plain, on the south bank of the Nucang River, protected by long walls, and you could clearly see the towering buildings in the city, and the long, pointed pavilions and roofs were dense like a forest!

One of the most striking is a tall gray-and-white tower in the center of the city.

"That's the magic tower of the Mage Academy in Fariel City, I used to study there..."Akran said lightly, "It is precisely because of this magic tower that Lord Samuel can firmly grasp a territory larger than the earl's fiefdom. ”

Viscount Samuel is the lord of Farir, and the Salvic family belongs to the local magnate of the Otto Kingdom, holding a vast territory from Farrier City to Wuthering Forest, including Blackstone.

Now Leon knows a lot about the situation on this continent, the nobility of the human race is divided into seven levels: duke, marquis, earl, viscount, baron, lord and knight, and the nobles who have the territory are usually hereditary titles, and the hereditary viscount can barely be among the upper nobles, but such a large territory is rarely owned even by hereditary earls.

Leon heard from Akram that the Salvic family once had a marquis, but was defeated in the power struggle of the kingdom, but the territory was still retained.

And now their situation is not very good, after all, this large and rich territory is very eye-catching, and the nobles who have no territory in the royal capital of the Otto Kingdom are very popular.

Leon doesn't care about the Salvic family, who control the Farir territory, but if they want to cross the Nucang River, they must use the ferry boat at the pier on the northern outskirts of Farir City, so it is necessary to understand the local situation.

"My idea is that we will rent a place to stay near the northern suburbs, where there are a lot of houses for caravans. Akram said to Leon, "Then the two of us will go into the city and hire a reliable guide from the mercenary guild, and if it goes well, we will be able to cross the Nucang River tomorrow morning." ”

"Okay, you are most familiar with the situation here, and you can arrange everything!" Leon nodded.

Since Leon chooses to believe in Aklan, of course, he unconditionally supports the arrangement he made.

The city of Faril is not isolated on the plains, except for the north, it is surrounded by numerous villages, estates and even small towns on the east, south and west, divided by large roads and alleys that are like spider webs.

According to Akrán, there are more than 100,000 long-term residents living in the city and suburbs of Farir, and the number of merchants, mercenary adventurers, and wanderers who come and go is simply incalculable, and this is the core essence of the entire Farrir Territory.

Although it is winter, there are not many pedestrian caravans on the road, especially the road leading to the northern suburbs of the wharf, which is very lively, with long caravans and groups of mercenaries everywhere, and the strong popularity makes this place full of vitality.

So, Leon's small team did not attract anyone's attention at all, and adventurers with cloaks abounded.

Leon noticed that heavily armed cavalry patrolled back and forth along the road, and these lightly armored cavalrymen were all in tall and proud shape, riding tall horses majestically.

The pedestrian caravans on the road all consciously gave way when they saw the cavalry.

"This is the patrol cavalry of the garrison of Farir City, and the mercenaries are desperate not to clash with them, otherwise the consequences will be serious. Akram whispered to Leon, his eyes full of fear.

"Have you suffered their losses?" Leon was a little curious.

Akram smiled bitterly and didn't answer, but his expression was telling.

The team entered the dock area, and the Nucang River was ahead.

The raging river in the forest and mountains has become much gentler here, and there are many boats on the open river, and the dark brown sails and white masts on each side make a unique picture.

Many merchant ships docked at the docks, sailors and workers busily carried goods,

The docklands are huge, and Leon is full of shops and warehouses as far as the eye can see, and there is a large market not far away.

"Hey, Venerable Mage, do you need accommodation or hire a ship, we have the best inns and merchant ships that are ready to help!"

Several people who looked like snakes surrounded them and greeted them very enthusiastically: "And the girl, the beautiful girl!"

"Go away, we've got a reservation!" Akram said coldly, without minus.

Hearing Akram's pure Farir accent, several of the Ground Snakes immediately flinched and turned to find someone else.

"These people are basically liars, and believing in them is no different from believing in the devil...", Akran said disdainfully, "That's why I'm going to the mercenary guild to find a guide." ”
