Chapter 703: A Familiar Encounter (Ask for a Recommendation Ticket!Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
Where did that Eternal Scales come from?"
After meeting Green in Emerald Wood City, representatives of several chambers of commerce hurried back to the inn. The president of the Todd Chamber of Commerce invited the two of them to his room and asked them questions.
"I heard that it's a new Chamber of Commerce," a president who knew him well thought for a moment and replied, "It's just that so far our commercial spies haven't figured out what their Chamber of Commerce is running?"
When it comes to commercial espionage, Todd and the other president all know that this old fellow has always liked to use rooms. The two chambers of commerce usually want to launch a new product, and maybe before they know it as presidents, the product description is on each other's desks.
However, such a powerful business intelligence system has not even found out what a "small chamber of commerce" that has just appeared is doing, which is enough to attract their attention.
Because there are only two possibilities for such a result: first, the scales of the Eternal Order are really "sprouting", or it is simply the newly established grass platform team, so the commercial spies have not sent back any useful information, and second, the chamber of commerce has a background beyond their imagination, and has been operating a trade that ordinary people have no way of knowing.
Given the situation in the audience room today—the presidents of the three chambers of commerce could only stand to speak to Mayor Green, and the president of the Scales of Eternal Order actually had a seat next to Green—they were more inclined to the second possibility.
"All in all, we are halfway through our mission, and the City-State Alliance has made it clear that it wants to fight the Emperor's monster army. Speaking of this, the Todd president paused, "As for the war machines that Dwarf Island wants from those city-states, as far as the current situation is concerned, the other city-states should have the same attitude as Grimm - they will definitely not give it." This is also understandable. After all, two birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in hand. The most reassuring thing is to hold the weapon in your own hand. ”
The other two presidents agreed with Todd. As merchants, even with the support of the Gnome Islands and the large amount of trade between the various city-states, they still have no way to influence the ruler's thoughts on certain issues. Fortunately, the situation is not bad now. Gnome Island didn't give them a death order either, and they were able to do it halfway through the mission.
Chatting and chatting, because they were still businessmen after all, their topic quickly shifted to various businesses. Dealing with the emperor is just their sideline, and this time they came to Emerald Wood City, and the three chambers of commerce did not forget to do some business.
The president, as an envoy, lived in a post house in the mountain city. However, most of the caravan guards were still stationed at the foot of the mountain. And the more than 6,000 caravan guards finished setting up their camp, and immediately stepped up to repair a trade market.
In addition to bringing the baggage required by the soldiers, the three caravans also brought in a lot of goods that were in demand. At this moment when the monster army is overwhelmed and the people are panicking, the "war toys" they brought from Dwarf Island are not short of sales at all.
"Put the best bear traps behind the door, and those monsters won't be able to get into your door......"
"Holy water that has been blessed by the dwarf gods can be used to wash the face every morning and evening to ward off evil spirits......
"Quick Escape Shoes, even if you are surrounded by monsters, you can escape from Ascension ...... immediately"
In the middle of a broad-leaved woodland, there was a lot of shouts for merchandise, and the salesmen from the three chambers of commerce were all working hard to sell their goods. And the object of their shouting is the residents from Emerald Wood City, as well as the refugees from Soft Maple City who have recently settled here, of course, only those who have a small amount of money.
Old Poppy walked through the bazaar, he had just wanted to buy some grain for his new "North Wind Tavern" to use for brewing, but now he had several more eye-catching protective equipment in his hand. After experiencing big scenes such as monsters besieging the city and retreating from Soft Maple City overnight, the tavern owner has long been no longer optimistic. In order to keep his new property, he would rather spend a little more.
There are many others who have the same thoughts as him—the rich men of Soft Maple City, many of whom are now throwing a lot of money around this bazaar, buying back some "some and nothing" things, so that they can feel at ease.
"It's actually kind of useful. Unlike before in Avernath, the old ghost women sold fakes. ”
With nothing to do, Naru and Blue took advantage of the spell props given by Snead to cover their bodies and wander around the camp. Naru bought a pair of "quick-acting escape shoes", dismantled them, and said to his brother: "There are two springs in the insole, and they all seem to have been spelled. As long as the latch is pulled, the sole of the shoe can eject an ordinary person at least seven or eight meters away. ”
"Literally, all the things sold here are not false propaganda, at least. Blue bought a sparkling drink, saying that it was something that had been made from wheat blessed by the dwarf gods, ground into flour, made into bread, and then fermented. The ogre gourmand sipped his drink and agreed with his brother, "This drink is indeed quite satisfying as they say." ”
In the huge forest market, two ogre brothers disguised as ordinary people walked and watched, buying some gadgets from time to time, looking like two normal tourists.
Just as they had finished their walk around and were about to leave the market and return to Emerald Wood City, Blue suddenly felt something.
He opened the food box he was carrying behind him—even if he was a normal person in disguise City, he hadn't given up the habit of carrying his treasure with him—and took out a small jar from it, dipped his fingers in a little mustard paste inside, and then quickly wiped it on the tip of his tongue.
The penetrating thrill quickly spread to his facial features. Under his deliberate guidance, this extraordinarily "transparent" stimulation quickly reached his eyes. Blue's eyes moistened, but no tears flowed, because these tears formed a set of lenses under the impetus of the magic, providing him with a sense equivalent to "eagle eye".
Blue raised his head and looked up at the sky, "It looks like something is falling in the sky, like a needle...... No, no, like a column falling towards the center of Emerald Wood City," the ogre gourmet's brow.
This scene was no stranger to him, and since the birth of the Leviathan creature, Quest had adopted more than one "staff strike" tactic. But now that they are attacking Emerald Wood City, they don't seem to have any benefit at all?
Wait, Blue suddenly thought of something, and he looked up again and narrowed his eyes. As the cylinder fell, it got closer and closer to the ground, and Blue finally saw what the "dot" he had just glimpsed at the top of the cylinder was.
"Eat bones!" He's copying our tactics!"
