Game of the World Tree Chapter 272: The elves are quite pitiful (two-in-one)

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of the World Tree game!

A young nobleman pretending to be a caravan?

Thinking of this, the thin guard's eyes changed again.

At this time, he noticed more...

Professional!

The oldest of these seems to be in his twenties, while the youngest looks more like a teenager...

Everyone is a professional!

The thin guard himself is not a professional, he is just a trainee soldier.

But years of experience have given him a pair of extremely sophisticated eyes.

These young people did not hide their aura at all.

If you observe carefully, you will find that their strength is extremely terrifying!

Their aura is even stronger than that of the strongest hunters in Ximu Town...

The strongest hunter in Ximu Town had already reached the middle level of black iron a few years ago.

This means that this group of young people... are probably at least at the peak of Black Iron's mid-level strength, and maybe it's possible for Black Iron to reach the top.

However, the hunter in Ximu Town is fifty years old this year, but these young people are so young...

At this age, with such strong strength, do we still need to doubt their identity?

Noble!

Definitely a noble!

Only aristocrats can cultivate such outstanding young professionals!

Unlike ordinary civilians, human nobles have mastered most of the extraordinary powers and most of the resources.

They don't need to run for a living, they just need to grow up step by step and master the power of the family.

For this reason, for those young nobles, everything about common people is novel.

Occasionally, some nobles who like novelty will do things that common people cannot understand...

It is entirely possible to pretend to be a caravan in the winter!

After all...it is said that there is no cold winter or snow in the southern Kingdom of Iris.

Every winter, many Aris nobles go to the Holy Maniah Empire in the north to watch the snow...

Of course, many nobles in the Holy Mania Empire also go to the warm south for vacation in winter.

The two countries have been at peace for decades, and their attitudes towards each other are not as hostile as they were a hundred years ago. People-to-people exchanges are quite rich...

Thinking of this, the thin guard's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Young nobleman!

If you please them, even if they leak a little bit from your fingers, you will get rich!

And if you let the other party have a good time, maybe the whole town will benefit!

You know, as a southwest border town, it is not as prosperous as the eastern border, and there is always the risk of being harassed by orcs. Ximu Town has always been quite poor.

Soon, the thin guard thought about what to do.

As if he had not discovered the identity of the other party, he began to dryly cough twice according to the previous routine, and said in a deep voice:

"Who are you?"

Coming!

The players were refreshed.

Having already learned some strategies from Nightingale in advance, they knew that this was a normal conversation when encountering a smuggling caravan in Border Town.

Everyone subconsciously looked at Li Mu, and Li Mu gave everyone a reassuring look, then smiled and said to the guard:

"We are a caravan from the south. I am the Chamber of Commerce President Rimu. I want to take advantage of this winter to go to the north to sell some goods..."

If nothing else happens, the next step is to ask for bribes.

After asking for a bribe, the other party should help them get a pass to the empire.

Li Mu thought in his heart.

These are what the nightingale said.

It is said that the NPC boss, before returning to the Elf Forest, often pretended to be a human or "cargo" and wandered around in various smuggling caravans to save his fellow elves...

Caravans and mercenary groups are the best ways to form an organized organization and sneak into human society.

However, compared to mercenary groups, which are subject to strict inspections, caravans have more freedom.

And...it's more convenient to "do business".

As expected, after listening to Li Mu’s words, the thin guard showed a smile:

"It turns out to be a caravan! You still need to run business in winter, but it is quite hard. Come to the town and have a rest. It is getting late. After the rest, I will report to the mayor and give you the empire's business Team Pass."

After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation...

Huh?

Aren’t you going to ask more about the origin?

Li Mu was slightly startled.

This set up went so well that it made him hold back all the rhetoric and explanations he had prepared...

"How are you? Do you want to rest? It's getting late. Let's go to the town to have a look and feel what the human world in this game is like. By the way, I want to know how far away Maple Leaf City is."

Li Mu asked in the chat channel.

This town is still too small.

Even from the outside, it looks like a larger village.

Of course, even a human village is enough to make players curious.

But if possible, Li Mu still wants to take the players deeper and reach the final destination - Maple Leaf City!

According to the returning Elf NPC, Maple Leaf City is the most prosperous city on the southwest border.

Prosperity means resources and opportunities...

Not to mention, as the former capital of the elves, there must be hidden plots!

The players looked at each other and nodded.

"It's quite late. I've been walking for so many days and I'm exhausted."

"Hey, it's mainly because it's too far and I haven't gained experience yet. I regret going out to explore."

"Don't worry! When we get to the destination, maybe we can make everything back in one go."

"I'm also very curious about this village."

"Then take a rest. You are tired after walking for a day. This game is too hardcore..."

"Second the proposal..."

In the team chat channel, players sent messages one after another.

Seeing that the players had unified their opinions, Li Mu smiled at the thin guard:

"That's hard work."

The thin guard breathed a sigh of relief, and then enthusiastically led the players into Ximu Town.

The houses made of black wood and bluestone are lined up in rows. The white snow covers the houses with a layer of silver frost. The lingering smoke slowly rises from the chimney on the roof, carrying a trace of alluring fragrance...

The players walked in the town and looked at everything around them curiously.

Ximu Town is not big, and its population is very limited, only a thousand people.

More than two hundred players poured in, instantly making the already small town seem crowded.

While the players were admiring the scenery of the town, pairs of curious eyes were also observing the caravan entering the town through the windows.

From time to time, children ran out of the house, cheered after the caravan, and were scolded by the guards.

After the caravan was stationed, many villagers immediately came out of their homes and approached the caravan out of curiosity. They took out some hunting skins or some specialties from the town and asked about the transaction. thing.

Now that the show has been made, the players have already prepared the complete set.

In response to these enthusiastic villagers, players also took out the severely overproduced food in the Elf Forest from the trucks and traded with the villagers.

Of course, Ximu Town is too poor, and even the players can’t stand the things these humans have come up with.

However, they don't need these villagers' things.

Well, I still accepted some specialties.

However, what they need more... is information.

"Is there anything interesting happening in the territory? Or are there any legends or relics?"

Holding the food given by the players and listening to their questions, the short and fat guard was slightly startled.

"That's right, it's our first time to come to the empire, so... we've always been very curious about the famous Maple Leaf Territory. Moreover, it's our first time to open a trade route. These goods can be considered a meeting gift."

"So...we are willing to use these interesting rumors and news to trade goods, but...it must be true."

Li Mu smiled.

Now, the most indispensable thing in the Elf Forest is food.

With magic and a good growing environment, the food in the Elf Forest has already been overrun...

What the players brought this time were actually failed products from breeding experiments, some of the worst-looking products.

However, the products produced by the Forest of Elves are products produced by the Forest of Elves after all. Even the worst food is many times better than what the villagers usually see.

Looking at the plump and satisfying pieces of Iris potatoes in the bag, as well as the tempting wheat aroma, the skinny guard’s eyes went straight...

Noble!

These young men are definitely nobles and have not run away!

Powerful and well-equipped...

And such good food can be given away to others. I just want to hear some interesting news, probably because I want to take risks or something...

In addition to those young and arrogant nobles, who else would do such a thing of prodigalism? !

It is said that this kind of aristocratic young lady, who is like the pride of heaven, likes nothing more than the pursuit of excitement!

Of course, at a certain moment, he also doubted whether these young professionals might be spies or something...

But he quickly rejected it.

How is that possible?

If they were really official spies from the Kingdom of Aires, there was no way they would let a group of nobles do such a thing!

These inexperienced young children may be deceived out of their pants if they go to Maple Leaf City.

The thin guard secretly shook his head.

Of course, he will not remind the other party of this.

Nobles are not good people, and he has never been very fond of nobles.

There are various signs that this is definitely a group of young nobles who are full and want to have fun!

Hey...this is the way the world is.

Many civilians can't even afford food, but the nobles live a life of drunkenness and dreams.

Of course, if you don't take advantage of something, you're an asshole.

Since these nobles plan to exchange goods for interesting news, the thin guard is naturally willing to do so.

Thinking of this, he quickly racked his brains and spit out all the news he knew that might be of interest to these young people:

"There are some! Interesting things... I know a lot!"

"Well, I don't know what happened recently. In the entire Maple Leaf Territory, many professionals have broken through the bottleneck that they have had for many years. It is said that the bottleneck of the lord who has been stuck in the golden middle has also been loosened..."

"Relics? There are so many ruins in Maple Leaf Territory! They are all left over from the Silver Age and belong to the elves, but many of them have been explored by adventurers..."

"However, it is rumored that there is a hidden ruin in Maple Leaf City that no one can open. Every full moon night, various strange phenomena will occur in Maple Leaf City..."

"However, it is just a legend..."

"Well... there's one more thing! The annual Maple Leaf City auction is about to start. I heard that this time the city lord destroyed an underground stronghold and captured many elves. They should all belong to 'Oak' Hand'organized..."

"And I also heard that the lord also invited nobles from all over the country to participate in the auction..."

Elves?

The players looked at each other thoughtfully.

"Oak Hands?"

Xianmiao noticed a new word and looked curious.

"Well...it is an underground resistance organization hidden in the empire. It is said that its members are elves and half-elves, as well as some humans who are sympathetic to the elves."

“With the goal of rescuing the captured elves, they have been active in various cities in the empire...”

The thin guard explained.

At this point, he sighed slightly:

"To say that these elves... are really miserable. Not only are they hiding here and there, but they have to be captured. Maybe... this is their fate. Who made them look so good-looking..."

"I was lucky enough to see the legendary elf once. You don't know, but it is really beautiful... good-looking, how should I put it... like an angel... no wonder it is liked by others."

"However, when I saw him that time, he was in a cage. Hey, he was actually quite pitiful."

"Hey...think about it, which race wants to be caught, but...who makes them so popular with the nobles? They have long lifespans, good looks, and magical physiques. I heard that those nobles What I like most is raising such intelligent creatures..."

"Keeping an elf in captivity can benefit the entire family for hundreds of years..."

"Let me tell you, these elves are too kind. Hey... they are obviously such a kind and powerful race, but they ended up like this. It is also embarrassing."

"Maybe, in this world, you can only survive if you are cruel."

"Just like the great nobles of the empire, one is more greedy than the other, and one is more cruel than the other. The more powerful they are, the more so. None of them are good things!"

The thin guard sighed angrily as he spoke.

But soon, he realized that he seemed to have said too much...

Moreover, because the atmosphere of the exchange was so good, he couldn't hold back and even complained about the nobles!

Above is the Lord of Eternity!

He actually complained about the nobles in front of them!

The thin guard broke into a cold sweat, quickly stopped talking, and then looked at the players cautiously.

However, what surprised him was that these young nobles were not angry.

On the contrary... after listening to his words, they showed expressions of interest and eagerness to try.

"When is this auction...specifically?"

Li Mu asked with interest.

The others also looked at the thin guard expectantly.

The fiery gaze made him shiver subconsciously.

They are indeed nobles... These guys can't walk when they hear the elves.

The thin guard secretly shook his head.

……

The thin guard communicated with the players, then left happily holding a few bags of food.

The other villagers also followed the same example and exchanged the various information they knew for goods from the players.

However, the simplicity of these villagers is somewhat beyond the players' expectations.

Although the players said they exchanged information for goods, many villagers still kept the things they had originally planned to trade after collecting the food...

Either eggs, or animal skins, or some small objects, or some game...

In their words, that is:

"Master, these grains of yours are all high-end goods, the kind that are rare in Maple Leaf City..."

"These things of yours are so precious. You can find out what we are talking about by asking a little bit..."

"We have already taken advantage of it. Although we don't have much in hand, in exchange for it, we can feel more at ease."

"The Lord of Eternity is above, may the true God be with you forever..."

This really surprised the players.

Not all humans in this game are villains!

These villagers are pretty good.

After the transaction, the villagers enthusiastically brought out all kinds of delicious food to entertain these generous strangers.

After the whole town was busy for several hours, it gradually became quiet...

After the last villager left, the players gathered in the temporary camp. They sat together in twos and threes, seemingly resting, but in fact they entered the chat channel and began to discuss the next plan...

"What do you think?"

Li Mu asked in the chat channel.

"How else can I watch it? It's worth it! I got all the important information in one go, and the hidden plot is definitely gone! Find the ruins, save the elves, and do some business on the way!"

Demacia said excitedly.

"Then... let's take a rest and go to Maple Leaf City early tomorrow morning! What do you think? Can the online time be adjusted?"

【Read books and get cash】Follow the vx public account【Book Friends Base Camp】~IndoMTL.com~ and you can also get cash!

Li Mu asked again.

"Yes!"

"No problem!"

The players rubbed their hands in anticipation.

"But... we have to find a guide, we can't just run around like headless flies."

Sauteed tomatoes with tomatoes said.

"Don't worry about this. I heard from the skinny guard that he is going to Maple Leaf City tomorrow."

Xiao Xianmiao interrupted him and said.

After speaking, her expression became a little weird:

"By the way...I just went for a walk around the town. Guess who I saw?"
