White Dragon Lord - Chapter 260

[Chapter 251 The Journey of the Viscount’s Second Son (Part 1)]

Edie was wearing a fur coat, sitting on a cart full of goods, and looked back at the city of Red River, which was getting farther and farther. The road also gradually became potholed, and the bumps made Edie’s butt panic.

“My friend, how do you feel about leaving the castle for a long trip?”

Edie heard the friend behind him – Milne Green’s half-concerned, half-joking voice, scratching his curly hair in distress.

“To be honest, this doesn’t feel very good.”

After speaking, Edie pointed to the herbal goods under his buttocks. The herbs that the Green family hoarded in the early summer had already become like twigs under the scorching summer sun. It was hard and gave off an unpleasant medicinal smell.

“If you imagine yourself sitting on a pile of gold coins, your feeling will be very different.” The

two looked at each other and laughed. These special herbs produced in the summer of the Horn Kingdom can be sold in the winter when everything is silent. The price was nearly twice as high as that in summer. If Milne did what Milne had done, and shipped these herbs to the neighboring country, the Kingdom of Paphoran, the price would have doubled more than tenfold.

This is Milne’s way of making money.

“Seriously, Milne, how about going to the overseas archipelago with me? With your brain and my strength, sooner or later, you will be able to make a career out of it.”

Hearing this, Milne hesitated, and Edie’s proposal was very It is tempting, but going to an unfamiliar environment to work hard is far less comfortable than the family-run Red River City for decades. Moreover, the most important thing is that the outer islands are a different kind of territory.

“My friend, the overseas archipelago is full of monsters like ogres and gnolls. When I think of living in the same city as these monsters, I…”

Milne shrugged.

“You know, I’m worried that I’ll be a bone in the pot once I sleep.”

Milne looked around the caravan. The caravan spent a lot of money to hire those mercenaries that smelled of alcohol and stench. After entering the wilderness, they showed their due professional qualities. Their calloused hands were always in the dark. Around the hilt of the sword, sharp eyes are always alert to the withered grass on both sides of the road.

The wilds of Nordhill are not peaceful.

The radiation circle around the urban civilization is good to say that the city’s rulers organize manpower every year to cruise around the city to clean up these monsters that seem to emerge from the soil.

Once far from the city,

Then you have to rely on the sharp sword in your hand, or the protection of the goddess of luck. If the sword in your hand is not sharp enough, or is favored by the goddess of bad luck, it is very likely that it will become a pile of indescribable pickled things the next day. .

Edie nodded, understanding Milne’s thoughts.

“My dear friend, your worries are correct, but according to what my father told me, the overseas archipelago is a place of order, where monsters don’t eat people, emmm… How can I explain it to you?

” Di frowned and thought for a moment, then said.

“For example, in Cassos, a city where humans and monsters live together, let alone cannibalism, there is no urination in the streets, not only in the noble district, but in the entire city.”

“No. Maybe!”

Milne was slightly surprised.

“Even if it’s a human city like Red River City, it can’t avoid those drunks and poor people excreting in the streets.”

If someone else said this, Milne would definitely sneer, but this sentence came from Edie Campbell’s mouth. Then Milne had to think about it carefully.

Edie’s full name is Edie Campbell, he is the second son of Viscount Campbell of Red River City, and Viscount Campbell is one of the highest-ranking people in Red River City. The circle is not comparable to this commoner of Milne.

Moreover, Milne knew that his friend from childhood to adulthood would not lie in the name of his beloved father.

Seeing that Milne was still hesitating, Edie said.

“It’s true, and my father’s news came from the Duke of Uldum. The Duke of Uldum’s family has trade relations with the Overseas Islands, and I heard that they have their own shops in Sokas.

” Here, Milne’s eyes are shining. The Duke of Uldum is the top noble of Horn Kingdom. If this news comes from him, it is very credible.

“Well, I’ll have to think about it…”

Edie nodded. After all, Milne is not himself. Edie has an excellent brother who is destined to inherit his father’s title, while Milne was born in a wealthy businessman’s family in Red River City. Although he also has two brothers, Milne is equally good. If you work hard, you will have the opportunity to inherit the family business.

In this way, Edie Campbell, the second son of the nobleman of Red River City, took a friend to the caravan of the Paphran Kingdom and started his own trip to the overseas islands.

…

A month later, friends Edie Campbell and Milne Green from the Horn Kingdom arrived at Victoria Harbour in the Paphran Kingdom.

Milne Green couldn’t resist the temptation to make a fortune in a newly opened area. After the goods were processed in the Kingdom of Pavlan, he sent the caravan’s steward to go back by himself. He brought the money for the goods and came to Victoria with his friends. port.

They will start their fortunes by taking ships from Victoria Harbour to the overseas islands.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the white clouds and shines on the ancient houses of the thousand-year-old city of Victoria Harbour, awakening the sleeping people. Most of them will repeat the experience of yesterday, while a few will embark on an unfamiliar journey.

The second son of the nobleman, Edie, walked out of the tavern where he stayed, stretched out under the rays of the rising sun, and the two sheathed long swords hanging on the belt collided, making a crisp sound of metal colliding.

The breath of the sea, which was carried by the moist sea breeze, poured into Edie’s nose, making Edie’s drowsy brain a little more awake.

Thinking of stepping on the boat today, Edie had some insomnia last night.

“Oh~, @#￥%…&*! This tavern owner is a vampire! He asked us 5 silver coins for only three days!”

Behind Idi, his businessman friend walked out of the tavern cursing and heard Edie couldn’t help but stunned for the cost of these three days.

The countries of Nordhill use the same currency minting standard, 1 gold coin = 10 silver coins = 1000 copper coins.

In Honghe City, 5 silver coins are enough to make the average civilian family live happily for half a month, but in Victoria Harbour, they can only live for three days, and it is also based on the situation that neither of them have a big meal.

But it wasn’t his money anyway, Edie smiled and comforted.

“Don’t complain, it would be nice to find a place to live.”

Before arriving at Victoria Harbour, the two secretly thought they were the fastest group of people, but they didn’t expect too many people to have the same idea as them.

In Victoria Harbour, people heading to the overseas islands were so overwhelmed that they could only buy tickets for three days later and had to be ripped off by pub owners.

“It’s too expensive? Go out! There are a lot of people lining up.”

Milne remembered the look of the tavern owner three days ago. Rolled his eyes.

“Oh~, it’s not your money anyway, is it?!”

“Hee hee hee, yes, I didn’t expect that I was disguised so well, but you still found me.”

Milne looked at the hippie smiling Edie and suddenly felt good Want to punch up.

Forget it, can’t beat it.

Milne glanced at the two long swords on Edie’s waist. Seven days ago, these two swords cut off the head of a gnoll and saved his life.

Because of this, he took the initiative to bear the cost of these days.

After some frolic, the two casually bought some breakfast on the street and hurried to the port. The pub they stayed in was a little far from the port, and they were fortunate to be a little far away from the port, so that they would not find a place to live on the street.

The two walked quickly across the muddy streets and came to the famous Victoria Harbour, where they saw a brand-new huge three-masted sailboat in the distance.

Seeing the blue-bottomed four-dragon-ring flag flying on the boat, the two knew that their target had been found.

There was already a long queue in front of the boat, and the two quickly stepped forward and lined up behind the crowd. When it was their turn, the two handed over two tickets that smelled of ink.

The sturdy human sailor compared the number on the ticket with the name of the ship written on the ticket, and let the two get on the boat.

Seeing the large characters on the boat, Milne couldn’t help but read them out.

“Sea Wolf.”

Through the wooden board on the side of the ship, the two walked onto the deck of the Sea Wolf.

Milne suddenly saw the terrifying figure with the captain’s hat beside the rudder, and understood why the ship was called the Sea Wolf.

Because the captain of this ship is a gnoll!

Milne remembered the feeling of being sprayed with the stench of blood, and couldn’t help shivering.

Edie was also attracted by the tall voice. Compared with the two wild gnolls he killed a few days ago, the gnoll in front of him was much more majestic and mighty. The hair that stands like a steel needle can’t hide the outline of the strong muscles under the hair, giving people a feeling of real oppression.

There was a gleaming machete on the belt around its waist, but looking at the sharp minions, Edie felt that this gnoll might not need a machete to deal with him.

Edie couldn’t help sighing in his heart, he killed the two gnolls by himself, compared to the one in front of him, he could only be called a gnoll.

But fortunately, Edie was not worried that the captain would attack him. The gnoll captain was sitting on the side of the ship, bragging with several sailors holding wine bottles. There were aliens and humans in the sailors. Around them, there were also surrounding With several people in different clothes, Edie judged that these were passengers, just like him.

Due to the distance and the peculiar accent of the gnoll captain’s common language, Edie couldn’t hear what they were saying, and only heard a few words such as Kumlinge and demonized beast. A gnoll is telling the story of his battle with a demonic beast.

Edie couldn’t help being curious and walked towards the crowd.

“Edie?!”

“It’s okay! Come and have a look, you can also learn about the overseas islands in advance.”

Seeing his companion walking over, Milne bit his head and followed.

The addition of the two newcomers did not attract the attention of the onlookers. The gnoll captain glanced at the two at random and continued to tell his story.

Sure enough, what the gnoll captain told was that it followed the white dragon lord to open up the wasteland of Kumlinge’s battle experience.

Suddenly, the gnoll captain, who was drinking a little bit, threw the empty wine bottle back in his hand and jumped off the side of the boat, startling everyone who was fascinated.

Afterwards, the gnoll captain ripped open his light blue vest, revealing a sturdy chest with hair, the heart of the sturdy chest, and the abdominal muscles of the abdomen, with four thick pink scars sloping downwards.

“Wow!”

Everyone couldn’t help but marvel at the terrifying scars. Even if they didn’t see it with their own eyes, they could imagine how terrifying the size of an animal that could cause such thick scratches.

The crowd’s astonishment greatly satisfied the vanity of the gnoll captain, who patted his chest triumphantly.

“Did you see it! This is the 5-meter-long enchanted lion’s memorial to Lao Tzu, and it almost killed Lao Tzu! Hiccup~, but luckily, Lord Gulgaru was present, and it exploded with a single stick. The lion’s head, hiccup~, but I also gave it a savage knife.” The

gnoll captain did not forget to boast of his credit.

A spectator raised a question, and the gnoll captain’s already loud voice increased a bit.

“Ah! You ask me who Lord Gul’garu is?! You idiot! Hiccup~, Lord Gul’garu, the head of the Skull Smash Ogre, doesn’t even know?!”

“What! You are from the most western part of the continent! Well, I forgive you, after all, you have crossed the entire continent, hiccup~, Lord Gulgaru is a rare double-headed ogre! Powerful assistant, if you are fortunate enough to see it, you will definitely be impressed by its majestic figure.”

Listening to the inexplicable admiration in the slightly drunken voice of the gnoll captain, everyone couldn’t help but admire it .

Lord Gulgaru became curious, after all, someone who can be admired by a thirteenth-level high-ranking warrior, oh no, is an ogre, and must be extraordinary.

At this moment, a murloc sailor came over.

“Captain! It’s time! It’s time to sail!”

“What?! So fast! Damn it! The old problem of bragging when drinking alcohol has been reincarnated, delaying the business.” The

gnoll captain hammered himself a little groggy in annoyance. brain.

“My head is a little uncomfortable, let the second mate take my post, hiccup~.”

After instructing the murloc sailor to inform the second mate, the gnoll waved his hand to its audience.

“Everyone, you will be staying on the Sea Wolf for three and a half days. You will have the opportunity to drink and chat again. I have to rest for a while, hiccup~.”

The Gnoll captain, who had not had enough fun, walked towards the cabin with a slight sway. go.

The onlookers dispersed.

Edie pinched his chin and watched with interest the back of Captain Gnoll entering the cabin.

“It’s interesting, a strong gnoll who likes to drink and brag, Milne, it seems that our journey will not be too boring.” On the

side, Milne also forgot his fear of monsters and nodded in agreement.
