Cloud City.

Ten kilometers from Cloud City, Khrag spotted the watchtower.

Each tower is manned by two or three people, and there are fireworks signals inside the tower.

Herag bypassed these towers, and with his means, it was almost impossible for these ordinary people to detect him.

He deliberately went around and adjusted his direction.

Originally, it came from the west of Cloud City, but after a little detour, it became from the southeast of Cloud City.

Because the area west of Cloud City is controlled by the expedition, coming from this direction will inevitably arouse suspicion and add a lot of trouble.

Herag's current appearance is thin, his body is relatively thin, and his appearance is mediocre and unnoticeable.

A tall wall has been built outside Cloud City, and at a glance this wall is known to have been newly built in recent years, and there are a lot of blood stains on the wall.

There is also a wall within the city wall, and the inner wall is lower, which looks a little old.

The original wall of Cloud City no longer has any defensive capabilities, at least it is useless for monsters, so this wall was built later.

On the city walls, there are people patrolling at all times.

From the moment he first appeared, Herag was noticed by the archers on the city walls.

When he came to the gates, he was allowed to enter the city after some cross-examination.

As soon as Herag entered the city, he felt an atmosphere of solemnity, and few people talked and laughed on the streets.

Most of the people had sad faces, and the streets were mostly full of adventurers with weapons, and some scars could be seen on these adventurers.

Herag can see from some of these people's unintentional actions that these people have rich combat experience.

Cloud City is a frontier, and the adventurers here must have dealt with monsters a lot.

Herag carried an ordinary long sword at his waist, and his face was expressionless, and he looked like no one could enter.

He inquired around and found a caravan bound for Tarres County.

Tarres County is a city northeast of the Kingdom of Norn, which is a city in the Kingdom of Norn that is relatively close to the Valley of the Strange.

Herag was going to follow the caravan and not use the elemental flight in these places.

Although he is now a second-level wizard, he does not think that he is invincible in the world.

The natives of the elven plane alone have third-level strength elves and spellcasters, and if they use elemental flight to rush away very ostentatiously, the end may be very miserable.

"What strength do you have?" Ferry, the caravan's escort captain, asked.

Ferrie is a great knight and an experienced adventurer.

There are more than twenty people in his adventure group, although the number is not large, but the strength is very strong, there are more than a dozen knight-level people alone.

Many caravans wanted to hire them, and they were offered at very high prices.

Ferry doesn't take on all kinds of jobs either, he is cautious by nature and tries not to take on tasks that are too risky.

He thinks that money has a life to earn, and it has to be spent to spend it.

Over the years, I have seen many powerful adventurers, who originally had a bright future, but buried their future for high profits.

Having seen many of these things, Ferrie rarely took on dangerous missions.

That's why he's active in the Cloud City area, which is a little safer and has a lot of rewarding missions than the border.

Herag said, "Great Knight." ”

"Oh?" Ferrie was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the thin man in front of him was actually a big knight.

Seeing Ferry's suspicious expression, Herag stomped the ground, and a dull loud noise came out, and some cracks immediately appeared in the ground.

This is the simplest and most direct way to show strength.

Ferrie looked at this scene and his brows jumped, this power was very terrifying.

Even if he can't do it to this extent, Herag's strength naturally goes without saying.

"Very good, what's the name of the brother?" Ferry asked.

"Ruak." Herag made a name.

Ferrie nodded: "Welcome to your joining, I will repeat the task again, escorting the caravan to Tales County, it will take about two months, and the reward is one hundred gold coins, is there a problem?" ”

"No problem." Herag nodded.

Two hundred gold coins is already a very good reward.

This is also because the world is too chaotic and manpower is scarce, so the price of adventurers has also risen.

This is also the reason why many adventurers know that Cloud City is close to the border, and they still come here to beg for a living, all to make money.

After the two settled, Ferry took Herag to meet his employer, the caravan's owner, Torre.

Torre was a rough man who looked like he was five big and three thick, and he carried a broad sword behind his back.

He looked like an adventurer far more than a businessman.

When Herag got closer, he realized that this Torre was also a great knight.

It seems that there are no simple people who can make a living near the border, and they can't be mixed here for long without two brushes in their hands.

"I've just seen it, it's very good, you are welcome to join, you can tell me at any time if you have any requirements, and you can also cooperate for a long time in the future." Torre nodded in satisfaction, he had seen the scene just now.

Herag nodded, not saying more.

His expression was always very cold, as if he was not good at words.

Just like when Ferry raised a question just now, Herag did not speak, but directly proved his strength with his actions.

Torre and Ferry were not surprised by Herag's behavior, as many adventurers do, and do not like to deal with people.

It is not surprising that such a powerful knight has such a performance, if there is strength, then there is arrogant capital.

Two days later, the caravan officially departed.

In the past two days, Herag has learned that although the castle of the expedition has not been built here, it does not mean that there are no monster activities here.

On the contrary, the monsters here are very frequent, and the monsters summoned by the expedition team have basically come here.

Because there is basically no one on the other side of the border, they either run away or die, and the monsters can only wander meaninglessly there.

As a result, the remaining half of the territory of the Norn Kingdom is still very dangerous, and monsters often attack the city.

Especially in cities close to the border, monster attacks can be said to be commonplace.

For caravans running around in the wilderness, it was even more dangerous.

There are also walls in the city as fortifications, and in the wild, you will have to face the attack of monsters.

In this case, powerful adventurers are even more scarce.

Over the years, adventurers have been screened layer by layer like a big wave of sand, and those who can survive until now are adventurers with good strength. (End of chapter)
