Chapter 570: Return to Solan City
The Desert of Death causes the Flying Class to lose its disorienting trait and does not work against the armies of the City of Dusk.
In the early morning of April 8th, when the morning light lit up the sky, the towering walls of Solan City appeared in front of Richard's eyes on the ground level.
At a height of more than 50 meters, it is like a ravine.
Even a giant more than ten meters tall will sigh in sight.
The guards in full-body armor, the various hideous heavy defense weapons, and the towering arrow towers and mage towers behind the city walls all indicate the strength of the city.
But the most eye-catching thing is the Pegasus knights in the sky who are flying neatly, carrying long riding spears, constantly patrolling around.
These level 19 troops are the elite of Solan City.
According to the grapevine, there are also super-level Pegasus air cavalry hidden in Solan City.
Half a year ago, Richard would have had an infinite yearning for these 19-level top troops, eager to have them.
But at the moment, there is no fluctuation in the mood.
Dragonwings, after two months of development, has surpassed three squadrons.
What you can't get is the best, and after you have it, that feeling fades.
The team flew fast, and Richard, as he had done in the past, subconsciously wanted to keep the army in the class depository.
At this moment, the transcendent female warrior who kept Chrissy safe, with scars on her face, drove the skeletal blood dragon under her seat closer.
Said in a respectful tone.
"Lord Richard, when the Grand Duke came, he told you that from now on, you can directly lead the army into Solan City, and there is no need to store troops like everyone else."
"Just fly into the city."
Richard glanced at the other party meaningfully.
"In this way, when I meet His Majesty the Grand Duke Solan, I will thank you personally."
When the transcendent female warrior heard this, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on her face became a little thicker.
If this privilege is given to others, those people will be greatly grateful.
But the person in front of him is different.
The other party accepted it, which means that the other party is not disgusted with this meeting, which is a good start.
As for violating the rules of Solan City. Aren't the rules made to be violated?
This is Solan City, and the order of Grand Duke Solan is the rule!
Richard didn't hesitate to let Jarves get closer to the walls at a faster pace.
The bustling crowd at the city gate soon discovered this undead army that did not belong to Solan City.
Seeing that they dared to fly straight towards the city wall, I felt a little funny inexplicably.
Suddenly, they stopped one by one and watched a good show.
"Good fellow, I've been in Solan City for ten years, and it's the first time I've seen someone dare to rush directly to the city wall with an army, these are only a few people, is it enough to trample and shoot a round of arrows?"
"Yi? Is this a player's army? , whose general is this, so fierce? ”
"No, there are still people who don't understand the rules of Solan City?"
In the eyes of a good show, those undead dragons carrying many soldiers did not stop at all, and flew over the city wall.
Then, under the stunned gaze of everyone, the guards on the city wall not only did not stop them, but gave a military salute.
The Pegasus knights above their heads slowly circled down, escorting around this army.
This movement made the eyes of the aborigines and players watching the excitement below widen, full of incredulity.
Then, the guy actually flew over the city wall??
Solan City's rule forbidding anyone to climb over the walls has changed?
A group of undetermined players immediately asked the soldiers guarding the city gate beside them, and after some taunts and scolding, they had to accept a ridiculous fact.
That player actually took his own army and ran rampant in a city with a transcendent command.
What the fuck is that guy?
Why was the defenders of Solan City given the green light?
Soon, this scene spread throughout Solan City.
Those high-ranking nobles with a lot of eyeliner were shocked when they heard the news.
The information they have is not comparable to that of the residents at the bottom and the players, and the rules of Solan City are set by Grand Duke Solan himself.
Even some time ago, when the prince of the royal family came, he had to abide by it honestly, and even his only daughter had never made an exception.
The person who entered the city could ignore the rules of Solan City, and there was a Pegasus Knight escort, which was definitely approved by Grand Duke Solan.
Then the question is, who has the strength to make a legendary ascetic take the initiative to break the rules he has set?
Suddenly, the mysterious entrant became the focus of attention of all the nobles in Solan City.
Whew~
An entire squadron of skeletal blood dragons slowly descended to the gate of Violet Manor.
The movement here immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
It didn't take long for the news to be transmitted back to the major forces.
The Violet Chamber of Commerce, which was inconspicuous in Solan City, was immediately taken seriously.
They want to know what kind of character can make Grand Duke Solan break the rules.
After flipping down from behind the skeletal blood dragon, the transcendent female warrior immediately took the soldier to take his leave.
Richard didn't talk much nonsense and let them go on their own.
Chrissy stayed on her laurels.
The transcendent didn't say much, and after leaving the girl, she quickly disappeared around the corner of the street.
In Solan City, even if something happens to her transcendent, Chrissy will be fine.
Security is a no-brainer.
Chrissy didn't want to go home so soon, she wasn't wild enough.
Holding Richard's arm, he walked towards Violet Manor.
"Your Excellency Richard, Vile has run the Violet Chamber of Commerce well this time!"
"The sales of black gelatin have increased a lot during this time, and this cheap and heat-relieving food has become famous, and even many chambers of commerce in surrounding cities have taken the initiative to seek cooperation."
"Of course, the most important hero has to be me~ The Violet Chamber of Commerce has developed so well, no one has ever looked for trouble!"
"When you return to the territory, you must convince your father to take me, a great hero, with me, and I will go to the underworld to see"
Richard couldn't help but laugh and cry when he heard these words.
Even if she doesn't care about this little girl with a broken mouth, she can talk to herself all day.
Such a big movement outside had already alarmed the personnel in the manor.
After Richard entered, a large circle of people poured in.
In addition to the familiar silver gnomes and half-feathered people, there are many races that have not been seen before.
Vier, who was surrounded in the center, immediately became brisk when he saw the familiar figure.
After approaching quickly, he saluted with joy.
"Good day, Lord Richard~"
"Good day, Your Highness Chrissy."
Richard looked at this girl whose temperament was obviously mature and stabilized, and he also felt a little emotional.
When Weier was transferred, he was a little worried that the other party would not be able to handle the role.
But in the past six months, the Violet Chamber of Commerce has developed steadily in its hands, and it can often make up for the City of Dusk.
It can be said that it perfectly met his expectations for the establishment of the Violet Chamber of Commerce in the first place.
"Vile, you've worked hard during this time, and your efforts are very important to the territory."
"The city of twilight will not forget your dedication."
Vile's eyes were crooked, and the joy on her face overflowed from the bottom of her heart.
"No, my lord, that's what I'm supposed to do!"
"I want to thank you, without you, I might have been covered in yellow sand and become a dry corpse."
This made Richard even more satisfied.
Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he took out a crystal crystal from the system space.
It was handed to the other party.
Vile subconsciously took it, a little stunned.
"My lord, what is this?"
"Your reward."
"Strengthen the crystal, you can upgrade a skill to super A level."
Before Richard's words fell, Vier's body trembled, clenched the crystal violently, and said in a trembling voice.
"This, this is too valuable, sir."
Richard smiled.
"Your contribution is worth more."
"Use it well, the task of the Violet Chamber of Commerce will be heavier in the future, and it is inseparable from you as the helmsman."
Vile is a B-rank hero, and although her abilities are excellent, there is still a lot of room for improvement.
The other party is also worthy of this strengthening crystal.
Vile looked at Richard's serious gaze, and her eyes quietly reddened.
It is difficult for outsiders to understand her feelings, the other party not only saved her from the desert and saved her life, but also made her unimaginable success in her career.
Now, she's the leader of the Violet Chamber of Commerce!
From a lowly commoner who wandered on the verge of death after being shipwrecked, to now at the helm of a business that is at the helm of a chamber of commerce and can talk to high nobles on an equal footing.
It's not that I can't empathize with the taste.
Chrissy's eyes lit up immediately when she saw the enhancement crystal.
He put his arm around Richard.
"And this kind of treasure?! Your Excellency Richard."
Speaking of revealing a child who is eager to see a toy, but a little afraid to speak to his parents.
Richard couldn't laugh or cry.
Broke the girl's hand, pulled it out of the sharp corners of the little lotus, and pinched her face.
With a wave of his hand, a strengthening crystal appeared in his hand again.
He got a total of three in the last large copy.
One was given to the one-armed blacksmith Sam, so that the opponent's forging talent was raised to super A level, and the remaining two were never given.
Without hesitation, he handed it directly to the little girl.
Chrissy looked at Richard and then at the strengthening crystal in his hand.
My heart trembled inexplicably.
The voice became a little weaker.
"Really, really give it to me?"
Richard laughed.
"You are a great hero, naturally you have to be rewarded, you are my backer in Solan City."
Chrissy stared at Richard for a long time, and after making sure that there was no falsehood in the other party's eyes, the smile on her face became extraordinarily bright.
Shake your head.
"I can't take it, Your Excellency Richard, it's more important to you."
As soon as the words fell, I felt that my hand was wrapped in warmth, and then a cold and hard thing was forcibly stuffed into my palm.
"I'll give it to you, what so much nonsense."
Richard pinched the girl's face again, and then walked briskly to the back room.
"Vile, let the cook prepare breakfast, I was on the road all night last night and haven't eaten yet."
Looking at Richard's back, Chrissy subconsciously turned her head to look at Vile, who was still in place.
Both of them saw the crystal in each other's hands, and then they were a little shy inexplicably.
Chrissy took a deep breath and calmed down.
At this moment, she had a little understanding of why Vile was so loyal to Richard.
Being able to upgrade a skill to super A-level is the first time she has heard of this kind of treasure.
You don't have to think about it to know how precious it is!
But now, it's for her.
I touched the crystal and felt inexplicably satisfied.
After taking a long breath, a little sharpness flashed in his eyes.
The innocent girl's appearance quietly faded at this moment, and was replaced by a serious and resolute face.
Your Excellency Richard, rest assured, no matter what the Empire's higher-ups think of you, Solan City will stand firmly with you.
These words are said by me, Chrissy Solan, a descendant of legends and the sole heir of Solan City.
Even if war is going to start, even if . A river of blood!
Solan City will never turn its back on its friends.
After Richard had eaten breakfast comfortably, he half-leaned back in the fluffy elf chair and listened to Vile's report.
Chrissy knew that the two had something important to discuss, so she didn't bother much, and went to the guest room to make up for sleep with a yawn.
Although I came to meet Grand Duke Solan this time, I was not in a hurry.
That transcendent female warrior must still be reporting and discussing with Grand Duke Solan at this time.
Waiting for Grand Duke Solan to invite him again is the moment when the two sides really meet.
At that time, Grand Duke Solan will be present as the Lord of Solan City and Grand Duke of the Templar Empire.
Richard, on the other hand, spoke to him as Lord of the City of Dusk and Master of the El Plane.
This meeting will determine whether the two sides are friends or foes, and will even affect the relationship between the Templar Empire and the City of Dusk.
Richard thought about this, and he also felt a little emotional.
Before he knew it, he already had the strength that Solan City and even the Templar Empire would have to take seriously.
In the first few invitations, Grand Duke Solan just regarded him as a lord who had a good relationship with his daughter and had good potential.
Although the interval is only a few months, the relationship between the two parties is already very different.
However, Richard didn't talk to Weill about this at this time, he was more concerned about the secret arrangement of the Violet Chamber of Commerce - the intelligence network.
The Violet Chamber of Commerce is not only responsible for economic work, but also the most important thing is to collect intelligence.
Vile is quite serious about the topic.
"The construction of the intelligence network has been rolled out in an all-round way"
"I've bought a lot of slaves who have a talent for this, and after training, they've all come in handy."
"At present, our intelligence network has more than 300 people under the direct jurisdiction of the shadow, lurking in the major information gathering places and valuable chambers of commerce in Solan City."
"There are a total of 20 peripheral intelligence organizations that have been bribed with money, and although the information provided by these is not of high quality, after the information is aggregated, a lot of useful information can still be obtained."
"The Divine Grace Lords you brought back last time, I also specially allocated funds for them to be responsible for coordinating the collection and sorting out the news of the Divine Grace Lords, and at present, the harvest is not small, and the Violet Chamber of Commerce has contributed to several foreign trades."
Richard nodded, the time was too short, and it was not easy for Vile to do this.
"Did the prince sent by the Templar Empire hear the news this time?"
The prince came to Solan City, and although there was no pomp and circumstance, it was not treated as a secret to hide.
Vile's face was a little delicate.
"The prince. Probably a little bit different than we thought. ”
"The other party is the third prince of the Templar Empire, and his mother, a commoner, died when he was ten years old."
"From a humble background and the early death of his mother, this prince was not valued since he was a child. Only this time, it was chosen. ”
At this point, his gaze became solemn.
"The Templar Empire's attitude towards us may be worse than expected."
When the words fell, Richard already faintly smelled the smell of blood coming from the mountain rain.
