Netheril Glory Chapter 14: Konora City
Konora is located in the border area of the Kingdom of Camos, but its west is surrounded by mountains, and the east is a small wilderness of EGMA (that is, the wilderness that Punk passes through), and there are canals flowing through it. Transportation and freight transportation are very convenient. It can be said that its geographical location is offensive and retreatable, so it is an uncompromising strategic place. Although the territory of the Kingdom of Camos is barren, there has been no war for many years, but in recent years However, the relationship with the Kingdom of Dylan is tense, and the south of Konora is the junction with the Kingdom of Dylan, so the city of Konola has many more garrisons.
Punk and Kane walked towards the city gate. A huge dark red flag hung directly above the gate. The flag was decorated with a rather abstract griffon. The flag fluttered in the wind and looked very imposing. . The 20-meter-high city wall is made of large pieces of granite, and there are still many deep scratches left by the sharp weapon attack, along with the corner wall stone bricks, a thick history Breath came.
At the city gate, some people and businessmen entering and exiting are waiting in line to check the soldiers. The soldiers are all round and very rude. They ask for bribes from the people entering the city unabashedly. The old man was pushed to the ground because the bribe of "paying" failed to satisfy the guard. The guard kicked the old man's leg with a curse.
And there is a smaller side door next to the main entrance of the city wall, where it seems to be for nobles and professionals alone. Compared to the noise and noise of the door, the side door looks much cleaner, and the ordinary poor people leave there Far away, there was only one old man dressed in fighter sitting on a wooden chair, who seemed to be the gatekeeper of the side door. Punk made a rough perception and found that the old man who was drinking in a small mouth was an apprentice level around Level-1. fighter. In terms of age, it belongs to the type of hopeless promotion.
"Lao Tzu doesn't want to line up here for a long time. Now I want to hurry into the city to find a place to have a meal, and go in there as soon as possible. The old man must not be afraid to stop." Kane stretched his waist and pointed to the side door.
Punk actually had the same idea in his heart, so he took the staff and walked to the side door.
The old man at the gate saw a man dressed as a mage and a man dressed as a knight came up and quickly stood up and took out a piece of parchment from his arms. Then he raised his head and drank some wine, standing in the middle of the gate.
After seeing this scene, Punk's face was gloomy. Looking at the old man's posture, he wanted to order a "benefit fee". But Punk now has only five gold coins on his body. The cost is too high, but it can be said that it is very rare for Punk who wants to learn knowledge as soon as possible. He is not wasted in the "benefit fee" inexplicably.
"If the old man asks the old man for money, the old man shoots him and fires!" Kane next to him has an indignant expression. He has almost no money, and the long journey of a week has turned this impatient guy into an active volcano. Now that he sees his destination, he will be punished. Greedy guards stopped, in exchange for anyone would have the urge to beat people.
Punk doesn't think it will be troubled. After all, he and Kane are both level 4 professionals (upgrade is still fast), it is unwise to offend two level 4 professionals for a little money. An old fried dough stick fighter should understand this.
Sure enough, the old man did not reach out and ask for money like the soldiers at the gate. He just asked Punk and Kane to register their occupations and levels, and did not even ask for their names. When they saw Punk and Kane who were about fifteen When he was a Level 4 professional, the old man dropped the parchment in shock.
Seeing the old man’s "unbelievable" expression, Kane proudly released his apprentice-level peak and strode into the city gate, and deliberately made his armor framed, regardless of Punk contempt Eyes.
Entering the city, a picture of the city with medieval characteristics is displayed in front of Punk.
As a "military city", in order to facilitate the deployment of the army, Konora is paved with gravel. In the tender season of humid air, there are small moss growing on the side of the gravel. This is Conola City has added a lot of green. The city gate is facing a market. Many shops are written with popular names in large letters, usually the name of the owner is added to the items sold, such as the Sibaco coat shop, the Gu Ge fresh meat shop, etc. Many businessmen who haven’t rented a shop also set up stalls on the roadside to sell their goods to everyone passing by. Although the distribution of various shops is chaotic, it gives people a thriving feeling.
"I said buddy, what's the next plan", Kane patted Punk's shoulder with his hand, a pair of "iron buddies" who said nothing, but Punk escaped in a wrong step, "you What are your plans?" Punk didn't answer, he asked Kane instead.
"I~, I’m going to the Adventurer’s Union to start my risk-taking career as a super-class great Kane Knight", and after he finished, he turned and walked to the lively food vendor~IndoMTL.com ~But now~Laozi has to eat a big meal first, and just treat yourself~".
"Then, bye" Punk finished, turned and walked to another relatively deserted street.
"Bye~~" After Kane waved his hand without looking back, he began to happily bargain with the vendor.
————————The dividing line————————
Punk is actually very happy about parting ways with Kane, because although Kane looks out of touch on the surface, he seems to be carefree and "sunny", but in fact he is a smart and cold-blooded person, Punk It’s still pretty accurate in looking at people, especially Kane, who is very similar to himself. Although working with this kind of person doesn’t have to worry about this teammate’s stupidity, cooperation is absolutely guaranteed in terms of efficiency, but in the process of cooperation But I have to guard against each other, otherwise, as long as there are enough interests, the last second is the two brothers who live together and die together. The next second will definitely pull out the knife and pierce the other’s heart, so Punk is more willing to be with the good camp. Human cooperation, after all, as long as the hypocrisy is shown, there is no need to worry about being stabbed behind teammates. At the critical moment, those "Justice Warriors" will also come to "sacrifice for justice", which can be said to be the best quality meat shield.
Punk is now heading straight to a very iconic building, which has a high spire and the building materials are really “blue bricks and blue tiles”. The house is the Master’s Union. One of the countless branch clubs on the roof has a nine-petal fuchsia flower printed on the banner on the roof, which is the symbol of the Master’s Union-the flower of the Victoria, although I don’t know why the Master’s Union wants to cover this branch. Make it green, but the conspicuous fluctuations in magic still allow Punk to be determined a few miles away-this is the mage union.
