Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Hunter
Hunter!
The image that flashed in Sean's mind was another girl in the archaeological team, the girl who often walked with Lucille, what was her name......
Gwen.
When she was introduced, she said that she was a hunter trap master, and the title of trap master was still called by Lucille.
"Are they all bounty hunters?"
"It's only partial. Frelia said.
"Then how can it be called the city of hunters, the hunters I know are like the Amansha people in the northwest. Sean looked at the other party and suddenly noticed that Frelia was in a state of [surprise!].
"Do you know the ?!! of the Amansha people"
"Yes. Alas~ Although I haven't been out of town before, it doesn't mean that I don't know anything. β
"That's right. As long as we are willing to understand that no matter how far away the news can reach every corner of the world, this is the most convenient and terrible trait of human beings as a social life. Halfway through the conversation, Frelia seemed to start thinking again.
There was still some time before the afternoon, and Sean always asked the other party as much as he could about some news from all over the world.
Because everyone has a different level of contact...... Luke is able to give himself the wisdom of an urban scholar, the coachman is the skill of survival for ordinary people, and witches like Igonia and Lucille belong to the realm of magic.
But the woman in front of her is the leader of a wizarding organization, and she has access to not only the upper echelons of the nobility, but also the little-known secrets of this world.
"And what is the difference between this city of hunters and the Amansha people?" Sean continued.
"They were the same!"
"Huh?" looked at each other curiously.
"The people of the western highlands live in a cold place all year round, and in that environment they also create a way of survival. In the western countries you will hardly see wizards and warriors and so on, many of them are hunters. β
"What's the difference?" in Sean's mind, hunters are the kind of people who carry bows and arrows, and maybe a pet, occasionally assisted by a trap.
"The Amansha people are a fighting people. β
I have heard many people say this, and some people say that the Edak people are also a people who are good at fighting. Sean said with a smile.
The Amanshahs are not easy to distinguish, but the Aedaks are too distinctive......
It is the kind of people who are tall and strong, and one thigh is the thickness of two arms of ordinary people. Sean had always thought that Frelia was part of the Edak blood, but she was fairer.
"You'll find out when you actually see how they fight one day, and they're good at using all kinds of props. Whether it is knives and guns, gunpowder, bombs, hidden weapons, poisons, etc., sometimes even a handful of sand and a rotten egg can be used as a weapon of attack. The western highlands are barren but there are many wild animals, and the bad weather makes them have to learn to use whatever tools they have around them. β
Playing cards out of common sense sounds like a good fit for your taste.
"Then they also live in the west, does it have anything to do with the Bifeng City we're going to?"
"In the early years, the city of Koga was not fully established...... The city was the largest city in the southern part of the empire, and it was the time when some of the Amansha people migrated to live in the vicinity, and it was at that time that many hunters appeared in the city. β
It turned out to be someone who had migrated.
Sean suddenly remembered Gwen at that time, maybe the other party was in a similar situation.
Didn't they all say that they came from the north at that time? And now I happen to go to the north......
The airship drove all day, until it was stopped by a nearby rest area in the evening, on the grounds that there were still many people in front of it who were being inspected and could only wait in this place.
Looking at the more than a dozen airships lined up in front of him, it is already late in the evening, if he can't line up, he won't be able to fly at night, so he can only wait for tomorrow before he can enter the city.
From a distance, Sean could see the white minaret building on the high mountain, like a sign, and behind it should be the so-called Peak City.
"How long will that take?" Frelia asked the soldiers standing guard in the rest area.
Only a soldier has the ability to force so many airships to stop!
The soldier looked at Frelia for a moment...... The eyes couldn't help but stare at the other party's seductive body.
The bearded soldier was much bolder than the one in the morning, and it had already caused Frelia to be [dissatisfied!].
"Wait, when the time comes, I'll call you, aren't there still people waiting over there? The soldier said, pointing to the opposite place.
"Let me pass, and I'll make it clear to your captain then. β
Although angry, Frelia still showed her bearing as an organization leader.
The impressive momentum made the soldiers standing guard a little nervous......
Sean has seen Frelia fight, and the battle mage almost never retreats, and this kind of tough style is probably no match even for ordinary generals.
"You...... Who are you, wait and go, don't make a mess. β
Despite a bunch of negativity on his head, he never gives in.
"Presumptuous! You're not qualified to talk to me. β
The wand slammed the ground hard......
Boom~
It's like a shock wave, and you can feel the ground shaking.
γDeterrence~γ
Sean noticed a skill display on top of Frelia's head, and then pulled out a special medal from his waist and placed it in front of the soldier.
"See clearly, will you let me pass?"
"Let's, let'...... Quick, let this airship pass first, what are you doing in a daze!" With an expression of disbelief and a state of [frightened!], he hurriedly called for the other soldiers around him to give way.
It turns out that this woman has special permissions.
Also, after all, it was the Earl's serious illness that invited him to be able to move. And didn't His Royal Highness let her go back to report to work in person? It's normal to have a little special treatment.
Under the gaze of everyone's [surprised!] and [curious!], Sean followed Frelia to continue to fly in the airspace of the special release......
"Sean, there could be a lot of people later, let's try to be as fast as possible. You follow me...... I'll take you somewhere. β
"Hmm. The answer is simple.
The closer they got to the city, the other party's [anxiety!] state that had been put down was reactivated.
Walk through the steeple towers that rise......
A large area in the middle of a mountain surrounded on three sides has a large area with architectural clusters.
This city is very different from Koga City, it is actually a fortress-type city built in the middle of the mountain...... Starting with the wall at the bottom of the mountain, it is built layer after layer.
From a distance, it looks like a giant castle made of white rocks.
