Chapter 182: Entering and Exiting the Sanctuary (Part II)

The scorching sun shone on the black city walls, and the tightly stacked rocks shimmered with a metallic sheen, giving people an indestructible feeling.

Leon had never seen such a tall, thick fortification, and the defensive walls of the Savage Fortress were divided into two layers, the front being a hundred feet high, and the last one being nearly half as high!

The main wall was a dozen paces wide, could easily accommodate several carriages on top, and there were stone towers at intervals, which was a terrible amount of work.

You must know that ordinary people cannot enter the secret realm of the holy realm, which means that all the buildings are from the hands of samurai, priests and other professionals, I really don't know how much time and effort those who are stronger than Meng spent to build the current magnificent fortress.

There were not many guards stationed on the city walls, and they were all armed and armed and watched vigilantly into the distance, and did not interfere with the two men who came up, Leon and Gucci.

"We can only look here, and we can't enter the main area unless the beast tide comes. The old lion explained in a low voice.

The top of the stone staircase is also sufficient, so that you can see the whole scene around the fortress.

At first, the people in the fortress felt that they were very small, but when they looked at the city wall, they found that the wild fortress was surrounded by a large forest with no end in sight, and the whole fortress was like a lonely boat in the sea, which also seemed small.

This scene is absolutely shocking and awe-inspiring!

"I think when you were on the Radiant Continent, you must have heard a lot of rumors about the secret realm of the holy realm..."Gu Qi said, "Someone must have told you that the four clans of the mainland have conquered the first secret realm and are marching towards the second and third secret realms. ”

"I can tell you, that's bullshit!"

The old lion burst into a foul mouth: "That's just putting gold on his face! Here, don't say that we are Beamon, even those bitch elves, they don't dare to say that they have explored half of the area of the first secret realm, and they can control the same as us, that is, the territory around the fortress!"

For hundreds of years, the four clans of the mainland have relied on the fortress fortifications to carry out a never-ending exploration of the first secret realm of the holy realm, a large number of civilization relics have been discovered, thousands of treasures have been excavated, and countless demonic beasts and monsters have been slaughtered and harvested.

However, the vastness and danger of the Sanctuary are far beyond people's imagination, and in the early spring and early autumn of each year, a terrible tide of beasts will break out in the Sanctuary, and hundreds of thousands, millions of demonic beasts will pour out from the depths of the mountains, forests, swamps, and deserts, launching crazy attacks on the fortress bases of the four clans on the mainland, every year without exception.

The reason why the walls of the Savage Fortress are built so tall and strong, and there are dozens of fortress towers, is not to prevent the invasion of other races, but to attack the beast tide twice a year.

But even with a majestic fortress, hundreds of people die in the beast tide every year, plus the adventurers who usually go missing and die in the wilderness, the quite astonishing losses have made the four continents still not really occupy the first realm of the holy realm.

"Look at those forests," said Gooch, pointing to the large forest in the distance, "that used to be farmland that had been carved out, but when the beast tide came, all of them were destroyed, and the trees that had been cut down and dug up grew again, so that we had no way to use them. ”

The forests of the Sanctuary Secret Realm, like the magical beasts that live in them, have an amazing ability to survive and reproduce, and the repeated exploration of the settlers of the fortress for hundreds of years has all ended in failure, and only the farmland inside the fortress can provide some food for the settlers.

Leon was silent, there was always a gap between rumors and sights, if he hadn't seen it himself, how could he have known the real situation here.

"Brother Leon, you have to remember that your life is the most precious, and nothing can replace it!" said the old lion Zhengse, "There are opportunities and wealth in the Sanctuary, but you must have a life to enjoy it. ”

"Over the decades, I've seen too many young people like you recklessly break into the Great Forest and never come back. ”

"Thank you for your advice, I'll be sure to take it to heart!" Leon smiled and thanked him.

The old lion grinned: "But don't be too afraid, just be careful enough, familiarize yourself with the situation here before exploring slowly, it is best to find a reliable team, you can live like me until now." ”

"Alright, I'll take you to the bar and introduce you to a few useful friends!"

In addition to the tall city walls and the towers of the Fata, the internal layout of the Wild Fortress is not much different from that of ordinary mainland cities, and it is also divided into military camps, residential areas, commercial areas, workshop areas, and so on.

Therefore, there are living facilities in the city, but the number of settlers is not large, far less prosperous and lively than the mainland cities, at least there is no bustling flow of people on the streets.

The bar where Gucci took Leon was located near the city gates, and although it was only noon, the bar called Night Charm was doing very well and was occupied almost everywhere.

The old lion sat down on a stool on one side of the bar, reached out to the bartender who was busy behind the bar, and shouted, "Larsen Bear Boy, bring me two glasses of the best red fruit wine!"

The burly and muscular, hairy bear-born bartender raised his head and looked at Gucci's eyes in surprise: "Old lion, aren't you retired? Why are you here again?"

The old lion sighed and said: "It's not the few losers at home who are making trouble, this time I came to fight for the last handful, no matter whether I gained it or not, I will definitely not come again after I go back!"

"I'm familiar with that," the bartender teased, "You've said it more than once, right?

The old lion patted Leon's shoulder, who was sitting on the side: "Introduce you to a newcomer, Brother Leon, a bear boy who is better than you, he has a treat today, of course I want the best!"

The bartender looked stunned, and Leon couldn't laugh or cry, as if he was here to be the culprit today.

But Leon didn't mind, this old lion who had been mixing in the Sanctuary for decades was definitely a figure worth intersecting with, what was a few glasses of fruit wine?

"Just kidding, just plain fruit wine. Gu Qi smiled: "Although the red fruit wine is delicious, the price is too tricky!"

"No, just two glasses of the best red fruit wine," said Leon.

"Don't, I'm really joking, I can't pit you, this glass of red fruit wine costs two hundred gold coins!" The old lion saw that Leon was serious, and hurriedly dissuaded: "It's not easy to make money here, you can't spend it casually!"

Two hundred gold coins for a glass of wine, that's a lot of money, but it's nothing to Leon.

Recently, Sal Ling is said to be in the gold, he is not rich, he is also rich, and he has a lot of money, and it is really trivial to spend a few hundred gold coins.

But casually throwing out a few hundred gold coins and only buying two glasses of fruit wine, it is inevitably too dazzling to show off the wealth, as a newcomer, such behavior is definitely asking for trouble.

"Two hundred gold coins, is this made of gold?" Leon had no choice but to show a wry smile: "Brother Gucci, next time I make a lot of money, I will definitely invite you to drink good wine!"

"That's right!" the old lion breathed a sigh of relief: "Ordinary fruit wine is fine, and the food is not ordered, I came here when I am full, and the bread here costs two gold coins and a piece!"

Although the Radiant Continent and the Sacred Realm are connected by a teleportation array, the cost of teleportation is extremely high, except for some necessities, most of the materials, including food, weapons, etc., rely on the fortress to be self-sufficient.

The Barbarian Fortress is stationed with 3,000 garrisons all year round, and it will increase to 10,000 before the beast tide comes.

A half-pound piece of rye bread in the restaurants and bars in the fortress costs two gold coins, and the same bread in the Glorious Continent is only three or four copper coins, and the difference is not ordinarily large.

"Meat is cheaper, because there are beasts and monsters in the forest..."Gu Qi drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, and motioned to the bartender to add to him: "It is also very expensive to stay in a hotel, if you plan to practice in the Sanctuary for a long time, it is better to buy a house here, and then buy a woman with lust when you have more money..."

An ambiguous smile appeared on the old lion's face: "When you come back from hunting, someone serves and cooks, and it's very good to warm the bed." ”

"Lustful woman?" Leon was stunned.

"Well, you see that bar girl, they're natives of the First Realm of the Sanctuary...", Gooch gestured with his eyes.

Leon followed his gaze, and sure enough, he saw three or four slender and toned girls in the bar, holding silver plates in their hands and shuttling between the wine tables to deliver drinks and food.

These girls have wheat chestnut skin, long black hair and blue eyes, and although their faces are not very beautiful, they are tall and bumpy, and their thick lips are very surname-like.

The Semu clan is the aboriginal of the first realm of the sacred realm, and it is said that they are the remnants of the ancient civilization in the secret realm, but they live a very primitive life in the big forest, and their tribes are all over the place, but with the arrival of the adventurers of the four tribes on the mainland, the originally peaceful life of the Semu people has been disrupted, especially the appearance of the beast tide has brought them a catastrophe.

"In the first, second, and third realms of the Sanctuary, there are indigenous aborigines, and the Semu people are good at jungle fighting, but their ordinary strength is not strong, and the human race and the elf race often plunder them as slaves, that is, we are equal to them. Gucci said: "In addition to the threat of the beast tide, there are often people who enter the Savage Fortress to seek protection, and there are about 2,000 people in the fortress at present. ”

"They also have to live, the men serve the garrison, the women are more numerous, and they are willing to sell themselves as long as you can afford it. ”
