Surviving The Fourth Natural Disaster Chapter 971: The waterdeep gangster targeted by the dragon
Waterdeep has been strictly managed since it was tossed once by the drow.
However, the city guards who have been corrupted for too long have made the seemingly tight defenses almost useless... The ones who can block the outside are at most low-level adventurers who are reluctant to use money to find a way.
Neverwinter was bombed, Luskan was very demanding, and Aglaia couldn't get in... These people could only try to come to Waterdeep to find job opportunities.
Unfortunately, the price they need to pay to enter Waterdeep is too high for them to bear.
Yes, for these waterdeep city guards who are accustomed to their palms upward, the result of the lords' repeated orders and five requests for strict defense is that the original 50 copper entry fee has become 50 silver coins.
If it's a half-elf, it'll cost 1 gold...they think half-elves are drow spies.
Of course, that's on the surface, even though everyone knows they're farting...but all they need is an excuse to take money, right?
Half-elves make money much easier than humans.
But half-elves aren't stupid.
There is no problem with the faction, so naturally I will go to Aglaia and Luskan to ask for a living... There are indeed many merchant ships in Waterdeep City, but there are also many Aglaia and Luskan!
There are no more magical ships flying in from the gates of the planes, and Waterdeep's largest piece of trade revenue has been cut off for a long time.
As for the assassins and thieves who fall into the shadows, they don't even plan to pay for 50 coppers.
With such a big waterdeep city and such a long port line, who can't find a space to enter?
Waterdeep has no mystery locks.
In the end, only the bottom-level adventurers were stopped outside the city gate.
So when Edna came to the outskirts of Waterdeep with her people and the tail behind her, what she saw was a big dirty market.
No matter how arrogant the guards of Waterdeep City are, they can't ask their citizens to stay out of the gate... If the entry fee is paid to the people of the city, there is no possibility of keeping it secret.
Although in fact their bosses basically know about it.
There are these high-level members who can receive the money, and they still get the largest share, but the pot people will not carry it.
Although the masked lords of Waterdeep turn a blind eye to many things, as long as the citizens really use their unique ways to report on these hidden identities and secretly control the lords of Waterdeep, they will also come forward Solve the problem.
Then the adventurers outside found that it was okay if they didn't enter the city. At most, it would be more troublesome to eat and live, and they had to go to the wilderness to gather and hunt... But as the number of people increased, let alone selling vegetables and firewood Yes, there are even chefs and singers.
The singers at the bottom were very happy to discover a new market, so they quickly set up a big tent.
As their tents are set up, the people who are attached to their lives and make 1 or 2 bucks of rotten rice also show up.
Afterwards, people surrounded the colorful tents, built wooden sheds in circles, and even had a few mud houses... It is estimated that some people have begun to collect protection fees.
Only this type of person needs a permanent residence.
Except for the bad smell, this market is already quite large.
"Is Waterdeep looking for **** smell by myself?" The "Old Sanda King" who sat on Elvia with Edna blurted out.
As a big boss who participated in the battle of the **** pit, she really remembers this smell and will never forget it... The smell here is almost the same as what she smelled when her sensory nerves were lowered to a lower level.
Also, they are still standing on the road with a certain distance... The smell in the market can be imagined.
"They are still eating inside!" An undead couldn't help shouting... The management of Black Rose is really sensitive to this aspect.
It seems that even if there is a way to isolate those smells, they know where they've been shopping.
Edna smiled slightly... Sanda Wang usually likes to go shopping with snacks and drinks, but yesterday he was empty-handed and had no interest in going to the snack bar at all.
"Toril, can't we dig a hole far away? It has to be anywhere..." The 'Old Sanda King' couldn't help saying 'evil~' halfway through, "Forget it, let's hurry up Let's go!"
"Aren't the lords of Waterdeep very shrewd?" Leonard, who was following the white dragon, suddenly said, "How could no one notice such an obvious shadow?"
Nasr, who had to walk alone beside the white dragon's tail because he was ostracized by Quesenta's colleagues, smiled and said, "They are in charge~ Without the support of Waterdeep City, who would dare to charge the protection fee so blatantly. That's a house! Whether it's a tent or a wooden shed, this kind of thing that can be given up at any time is never a big deal.
But mud houses, for any city in Toril, are taxable. "
Edna gave the market a cold look: "Let's go into town! Waterdeep is a lot of fun! If there's no big deal, we'll leave in two days."
'Old Sanda King' raised his hand and patted Edna on the back: "If you really want to leave, don't say such unfortunate words."
"Because I don't care~" Edna said with a smile, "It's good if something happened, it just opened our eyes.
Isn't there the mighty Mystra elector Kyleben! I would love to see what he does!
It would be a shame if nothing happened~"
'Old Sanda King' looked at his little friends one by one, and couldn't help laughing: "You are really afraid that nothing will happen~
Yes, it's not Aglaia anyway, it doesn't matter if it blows up. "
Leonard said in a low voice: "Still don't bomb... that's a little dangerous for us too! Huh? Why do you look at me like that?"
The corners of Edna's mouth twitched slightly: "Because we never make assumptions about ourselves, understand?"
The half-elf mage stared blankly at the group of people who were dissatisfied with him...even the Nasr from the Shar family looked at him with a strange look...why?
Josani, squatting on top of Elvia's head, covered her eyes with her beautiful big butterfly wings. She really didn't want to see her friend's innocent and stupid appearance... On a path related to fate, she dared to Say what if about your future?
The last such person should be Ke Lanwo?
Their famous collection of Destiny Slates, all the way to the road of destruction in the middle of his non-stop if... To be honest, Cyric can only turn his face with the male and female at that time, the dragon When chatting here, I admire the guy's patience.
Not only have to sacrifice their own interests, but also have to listen to the famous crow's mouth and look to the future.
Sometimes it makes people wonder if the Slate of Destiny is a roadblock set up according to his ideas.
So no one in the giant dragon thinks it's strange that Kelanwo will be brought back to be the **** of death... This kind of guy who has suffered heavy casualties with just a few words is really very, very suitable!
In an eerie silence, Edna's team made their way to the gates of Waterdeep... unhindered, and no one stepped forward to pay any entry fee.
Don't say that the lords of Waterdeep City have made repeated orders a few days ago. Don't make irresponsible remarks about such a large adventure team with a wizard. Even the tall White Dragon Queen is enough to make these guys retreat. .
Toril, no matter how stupid, would reach out and ask the dragon for the city fee.
Even if it could be the backdrop for a famous dragon slaying war, anyone who dares to collect money should die.
Elvia strutted into the gate of Waterdeep City... Of course she wanted to come before, but with the nickname of "Mage Killer", she would definitely have trouble entering the city controlled by the magic tower.
The White Dragon Queen has a cunning and rationality that is very rare in the white dragon family, and basically does not do anything to embarrass herself.
I didn't expect that one day I would be able to swagger into this commercial capital, Elvia was really proud.
However, walking on the famous Sword Street, Bai Long felt disappointed: "This... how can it not be as good as Aglaia?"
"Didn't you say that the drow was invaded some time ago? How could it be rebuilt so quickly, and there is no archmage who can build a house in Waterdeep without beckoning." Edna said indifferently, " However, if you look at the number of various stores, Waterdeep definitely has more variety than Aglaia.
However, if you look at the beauty of the architecture, how could this place compare to Aglaia?
Lord Hill's handwriting has always been relatively large, and even the materials for those dwellings are normally used by big businessmen.
Not to mention his own shopping street, as you can see, the estates of the great nobles are not that good. "
Elvia flapped her wings, ignoring the frantic dodging and angry and dissatisfied eyes of those who saw her on both sides, and said a little depressed: "Then only the famous Waterdeep gangsters are left, I hope they It can open my eyes."
Edna was stunned for a moment before she said: "You don't think that the kind of guy who specializes in blackmailing the poor and making a fortune in the slums is rich?
It's probably worth more money if you get it all done than if you take on an undead hire quest. "
Alvia won't give up so much, she's still heard a lot of legends: "Maybe there is some treasure that will make these guys with no eyes to throw them in the warehouse as garbage!
Let's try it out, shall we? "
Then she twisted her long neck back, her big eyes full of longing: "Sanda King, what do you think?"
"Although I don't think there's anything else~IndoMTL.com~Old Sanda King' said calmly, "It wasn't too many years ago that the gangsters in Waterdeep were swept away by the undead!
It's okay if you want to play, but according to our tradition, you have to have a good reason to take action against other city forces. "
Alvia hesitated for a while, then turned sharply to look at the relaxed white-clothed mage following behind: "Then... Mr. Xue Lao... Mr. Xue Yunfeng? Can you do me a favor?
I really want to experience the real adventure story! "
'Xue Yunfeng' can of course hear what the white dragon wants to call him, but looking at the pastor Lolita sitting on the dragon's back, he can only nod his head while twitching his lips: "I I will pay attention and call you when I have a chance."
