Sword Sorcery - Chapter 334
[Chapter 332 Hometown]
“What’s the matter, guest?” The
bald boss was stared at for a while, and asked Aaron in a prompt tone: “Is there any problem?”
“No, it’s fine.” Aaron closed his eyes and said calmly: ” Cooper’s Land is a good place, the former Viscount Cooper, the tax is about 20% lower than that of Viscount Steve, and the life of the commoners is good.” The
bald boss was stunned for a moment, completely not expecting the ‘noble’ in front of him. Young master’, he actually knows the local taxation clearly, this time, the bald boss’s doubts are more intense –
“Excuse me, where are you from…” The
bald boss considered his tone for a while , Carefully inquire about the origin of the other party.
Hearing this, the soldiers nearby could not help but prick up their ears. They were also full of curiosity and inquiry about this noble young master who was guarded by a beautiful beauty.
You must know that a knight at the peak/quasi-peak level can be subdued, and it is still such a beautiful and young beautiful girl knight. The power behind this noble young master is definitely not low.
At least a noble force above the ‘Grand Duke’ (grand duke who owns an independent duchy)!
This is the real reason why the soldiers in the hall did not dare to act rashly.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t even be able to pass the first level of that girl’s guard!
You must know that their captains are only formal knights, and they will definitely not be able to beat the other party’s maiden guards, not to mention that they are a group of ordinary soldiers who are not even quasi knights.
Aaron felt the attention of others, and the envy, contempt, jealousy and other emotions contained in it, but he didn’t care about it, and responded with a smile: “I am…”
” A former local.”
“Pfft….hahaha….hahahaha!”
The soldiers next to him immediately burst into laughter, as if they had heard the most absurd joke. This time, the bald boss couldn’t help shaking his head: “Young master, don’t joke with me, even if you say that you are from the past. The Chino royal family, I will choose to believe you.”
“But, you actually said that you are a local…” The
bald boss was full of tears and laughter: “This statement is a bit outrageous,
I have never heard of it.
I have never heard that the local is the son of a great nobleman—you must be the son of a great nobleman. Because even Earl Bell cannot recruit a powerful female knight above the quasi-peak level, not to mention, you have the power to bring Came out with a female guard to play field battle…”
After speaking, the bald boss made a ‘you know’ expression, obviously not believing Aaron’s words.
“Okay, your observation skills are really sharp.”
Aaron showed helplessness. He told a lot of lies in his usual days, and it was rare to tell the truth once, but no one wanted to believe him… …
Aaron was only a young city guard back then, and he wore a helmet for most of his duty time. There were not many acquaintances who knew him in Dolong Town. In addition to the population loss caused by the war, it is no wonder that no one knew him. recognized him.
“We won’t mention this topic.”
Seeing that he had almost chatted with the bald boss, Aaron finally asked a real question: “Boss, since you are from Cooperland, when you came to Doron Town all the way, you also passed by Cooper Castle, right?”
Cooper Castle is located in Cooper’s territory, very close to Leo’s territory.
When Aaron and Steve and his party fled the war, in order to avoid the main border of the Karas Empire, they deliberately took a detour to the Cooper territory, which was equivalent to walking a zigzag journey.
If you don’t take a detour, it’s like Aaron walking all the way from the port of Corvo, he will first arrive at Doron Town, and then the real target, Cooper Castle – the mysterious place where he got the ‘vertical pupil’.
Aaron talked so much to the bald boss to find out about Cooper’s Castle.
Unexpectedly, the bald boss shook his head and denied Aaron’s guess –
“No, I didn’t pass by Cooper Castle……”
A look of doubt appeared on the bald boss’s face: “Cooper Castle’s The surrounding area was blocked by Earl Bell, and any pedestrians had to choose a detour, so I made a long detour before I finally came to Doron Town.”
“Count Bell ordered the blockade of Cooper Castle?” Aaron frowned lightly. He picked it lightly and asked: “Do you know the specific reason for the blockade?” The
bald boss shook his head: “I don’t know, after Earl Bell accepted the Cooper Land, he immediately ordered the blockade of the surrounding area of Cooper Castle, prohibiting Anyone approaching – the specific reason for the blockade is not known to me.”
Obviously, the bald boss is just an ordinary person and does not know the real reason why Earl Bell blocked the castle.
“So it is.”
Aaron understood the meaning of the bald boss: “After Earl Bell got the Cooper territory, he chose to block the former Cooper Castle for unknown reasons…”
Ya Lun stretched out his hand and tapped the table, recalling what Derek said about “The Secret of the Forest” when he was in the Vincentian Empire –
“The fog incident recorded in the “Secret of the Forest” happened around seventeen Eight years ago.”
“At that time, when I was a young man, when I heard this rumor with my own ears, I couldn’t help but have a thought of ‘I want to go to the forest to try my luck’ – hey, I was at that time. He
is also a teenager.”
When Derek spoke, his tone was full of emotion: “Fortunately, there were not many foggy forests on the Moon Lun Continent at that time, not every place had fog rumors, and even some countries. There has never been a fog of forest.”
“The same is true of the Vincentian Empire. There was no fog of forest in that month.”
“However, at the beginning, I was very interested in the forest fog, and I collected some information privately. It is said that several races that appeared in the fog seemed to be looking for something.”
“Of course, I don’t know what they are looking for. A thing, it may be an item, it may be a living thing, and it may be more than a quantity of things…”
“In short, this is the information I know.”
Duo Duo Aaron
continued to beat on the table, trying to recall Derek’s words, vaguely feeling that he had caught some clues, but unfortunately, this ‘thought’ did not allow him to glimpse history. The whole picture.
At this time, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Aaron is like a small animal ‘peeping at the leopard’, still in a hazy state of cognition about the true face of the whole incident…………
“It looks like I have to prepare to leave tomorrow.”
Aaron drank the hot butterbeer in one gulp and touched the hot sweat on his forehead. Just as he was about to go upstairs to take a bath, the But there was a loud noise –
“Damn, the quality of the wine girl in this broken town is inferior, and the plaster and dye of Lao Tzu are all covered by rolling the sheets!”
(PS: plaster and common dye are the more popular makeup in the Middle Ages. Supplies, commonly seen in lower-class women.)
With the sound of swearing, a burly man came downstairs, and the next moment, he and Aaron met eyes –
“Bruce (Aaron)?!”
The two exclaimed at the same time.
