Chapter 34: Lord of Severn
Word has spread about the Fire and Water Alliance's invasion of Spite, the Land of Winds, which has made the situation on Edel's border tense as well.
The number of rogues is growing, some are becoming more and more crazy, while others are becoming more and more cautious.
In the early plan of Samuel's adventure team, the possibility of being attacked by the rogues was taken into account, and naturally they had already made very thorough preparations.
But in fact, it was not until they entered the Windy Country, and even the mighty city of Severn in the wilderness was in sight, that the attack never happened again.
The Fire Fox, an old gang that is not even a third-rate gang, has become the only unlucky guy, and the other gangs have long been far away when they see that the situation is not good.
"Everything went well. ”
When he came to Severn City, Vice Captain Vincent's face finally showed a smile, and Pastor Samuel also quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, their hearts are not as calm as they seem.
By now, Samuel had torn open the letter left to him by the Judge Chief, and realized that the goal of their trip was not to be a rare mineral, but to retrieve a spies planted in the Temple in the Land of Winds, who were now under the protection of Lord Severn.
It is said to be asylum, but everyone understands that this is actually another kind of house arrest. According to the request of the Judge, the spy had a very important secret in his hands, and even if they couldn't bring such a big living person back to the temple, they had to bring back the information in the other party's hands.
"Whew-"
Samuel exhaled a long breath and said to Vincent, "Let's go, go into the city." ”
Although the Severn City Lord now knew of their arrival, no one came to greet them for secrecy, and they entered the city as ordinary caravanserais.
Now that the flames of war have risen, even the city of Severn, far away in the southernmost part of the Land of Winds, is rife with tension.
When the group finally entered the city of Severn after a tedious inspection, Jerry's first feeling was very surprised.
When he entered the city, he was inspected so carefully, and the soldiers guarding the city stared at them as if they were going to eat people, and he thought that the city must be in a depression. But as a result, he didn't see any imminent war at all, and this border city, which can be called a port, is still prosperous.
Jerry was curious about the different customs of the Land of the Wind, the difference in architectural styles was already very obvious, compared with the solemn buildings that Edel was used to, the style here was more cheerful and bright, and the architectural colors were far from being as black and white as Edel's.
This is also reflected in the attire of the people of the Wind Country, with the exception of some adventurers and guards, the robes that Edel commonly wears have become a rarity in Severn, and their clothing styles are varied and the materials used are ......
"Uh...... That's a lot of savings. ”
When a woman wearing a crop top shirt and white jade legs exposed under a short skirt walked past Jerry, he felt that his eyes were a little unsure of where to put them.
Especially when the woman seemed to see his embarrassment and deliberately threw a wink at him, Jerry finally felt for the first time what the phrase "wind girl bewitching" meant.
Before today, he always thought that Edel's girl was cheerful and bold, but compared to the world-famous bewitching girl, that cheerfulness was nothing, and people had already reached the level of openness......
"Tsk, the Land of the Wind is really extraordinary, look at her little ass...... Tsk......"
Hicks, who was walking beside Jerry, squinted his eyes and swallowed his saliva, his eyes kept chasing the smiling woman until the other party was far away, and when he turned his head, he saw Jerry looking at him strangely.
Hicks was already relatively old in the team, and judging from the fact that he was still a second-level warrior at his age, he had almost no hope of advancing to a higher level in the future, let alone transcending the rank to become a defender.
Perhaps it is precisely because of the hopelessness of improving the level that he is also the most comfortable one in this team, without too many expectations, and he doesn't even care about the mission rewards, it is completely like going abroad to play.
Hicks glared at Jerry and said, "What are you looking at? You little virgin doesn't know what I'm talking about, do you?"
“......”
Jerry was speechless, Hicks suddenly smiled, and poked Jerry: "I said you kid won't really be a virgin, right?"
Jerry rolled his eyes, he had the heart to refute, but there was really no fucking way to refute it.
I saw Hicks roll his eyes, and said to Jerry in a suppressed voice: "Ha, I said yes." But blessed are you, boy, and I tell you, it's not for nothing that this Spinch is called a man's paradise. The girl here is as enthusiastic as fire, not at all as delicate as our girl from Edel. If you kid has a crush on someone, go up and tease ...... By the way, do you know what it means to flirt?"
Jerry said countless things in his heart, he really wanted to say to this uncle, I know why I want to flirt with my sister when I don't have you, but he really can't explain it.
But to say that Edel's girl is delicate...... But he beged to differ.
I can't defend those I don't know, but as far as the ones he knows, from Claudes to Lisa, to the saint Catherine, which of them can be described as delicate.
It's just that after being teased by a beautiful girl again, Jerry found that Hicks's words were not unreasonable, and he was bold enough to rush up to ask his name and take the initiative to leave him an address.
After a while, Hicks, the middle-aged uncle, looked at the dozen or so small notes in Jerry's hand, with a look of grievance, a very kind of hatred for injustice, and muttered vigorously:
"No, don't girls like you more now? Last time I came to Severn City, the little cat said that a man like me was the most likable......
Without waiting for Jerry to say anything, another second-level soldier who had a good relationship with Hicks laughed: "I said Hicks, when was the last time you came to Severn City, ten years ago? Haha. ”
Hicks slapped his head hard, and forced the old face full of vicissitudes to look like he woke up from a dream: "Uncle him, you're right!"
Suddenly, he complained again, tugging at his messy beard and lamenting that the years are unforgiving, and at the same time turned his head and said to Jerry very seriously: "Little Harry, you have to seize the opportunity, you still have a good face in the current good years, you have to be on it, but don't be like Lao Tzu and me, no one can look down on me now...... Huh, boy, you can give me all the notes, although I have no good looks, but I don't necessarily can't meet the right eye!"
Jerry was a little moved by this one at first, and he didn't say a few words to this person before he started to go down, and said in his heart that you are not only faceless, but you have clearly evolved to the realm of facelessness.
But as a great man who does not exist in this world said, helping others is the foundation of happiness, and what he himself does not have time to think about can make others happy temporarily, so why not do it.
Jerry very tastelessly stuffed the hearts of those girls into Hicks's hands, and the rough-faced and warm-hearted man quickly and carefully put it away, and his attitude towards Jerry instantly rose to the level of a brother in life and death.
In fact, Jerry also has to thank Hicks, if it weren't for the fire fox attack that distracted him first, and the uncle's unreasonable self-acquaintance, he might not have been able to break free from the huge blow.
But now that he has seen it, why can't he do what others can't do!
If magic is really the same as magic, and it really has to be performed with faith and divine grace, then how can there be two different names, isn't that superfluous?
Besides, didn't people think that it was impossible to possess a stream of magic without the unique training of the priests, and he had mastered it himself.
So what's the reason why he can't practice magic that doesn't require divine grace to perform? What reason does he have to give up because of such a small twist?
Of course not!
If there really is no magic other than charism in this world, then he should create that kind of magic himself......
No one knows what kind of shock and change Jerry's angry words in such a small border city will bring to the world.
And even at this time, he himself didn't know either.
The party settled down in a hotel that had been arranged long ago, and the owner behind this inn was none other than the city lord of Severn, who now looked to be only in his thirties, and now stood in front of Samuel, escorted by four masters.
Meeting with the lord of the city, Samuel could not have brought the entire party with him, except for Vincent, only Robben was with him.
As for Jerry, he is not qualified to participate in such a meeting, either in terms of seniority or strength, not to mention that Samuel has been trying to prevent Jerry and Rob from appearing in the same place.
"What do you say, he's dead, and his bags have been snatched away?"
Samuel suddenly changed color and shouted out in a gaffe, and the face of the city lord of Severn immediately darkened, and two of the four masters around him stepped forward half a step.
"Level 5 Warrior!"
Samuel and Vincent gasped at the same time, they didn't expect that the city lord of such a small city would have two fifth-level warriors as guards.
A warrior of this level is no different from an ordinary person at all without actively showing his fighting spirit, and Samuel does not dare to investigate rashly.
The two of them are already like this, and it is conceivable that the other two will not be weak. And with these four people by the side of the city lord of Severn, it is impossible for them to use force even if they want to.
Samuel suppressed the anger in his heart, nodded slightly, and said, "I'm sorry, Lord City, but I lost my temper. But I have to worry about the Lord of the City to tell me why that man died, and where my companion's bag is now. ”
Severn's face changed as quickly as turning a book, and in a blink of an eye, he was smiling again, and said to Samuel: "It's easy to say, in fact, I really have a little bit of an eyebrow about this matter, but I'm afraid I really need to rely on the power of Captain Samuel." ”
