Lord of War

After a safe night, when the sky began to turn pale, Xiao En and the others also woke up.

The condition of Vinia and Marton is still not ideal, but Cecilia and Rena, who are human beings, have basically recovered, at least not affecting the actual combat power too much. Of course, there will definitely not be too intense battles in the short term, and the small-scale harassment will not have a big impact on Sean and the others. Sean is quite confident about this.

So for the next short journey, Xiao En, who knew that he would definitely not encounter any trouble, decided to speed up his actions, so he finally arrived at the first small town on the return journey of this trip, Harkons, near the evening.

This is a small town with a population of less than a hundred people.

In fact, as one of the supply towns on the final journey to the capital of Ryan, Hakons could not have so few people no matter how he thought about it.

But in fact, this small town is not only sparsely populated, but also has relatively poor resources. The flow of people going to the capital of Lane is not very willing to stay in this small town even if it takes a few days to detour.

The main reason for this result is the exclusivity of Harkonstown.

This is a very independent town. The residents of the town claim to be the survivors of Haakons. The so-called Haakons is actually the name of a fierce general who followed the first King of Lane back then.

The founding history of Ryan is no different from the founding history of many kingdoms and empires on the Miracle Continent. They were all established in the form of tribes. Hacons and the first King of Ryan are two different clans from the same tribe. When the first King of Lion decided to embark on this road of hegemony, Haakons led his clan to join the In the king's camp, he became the most trusted guard and general of King Ryan.

But it is a pity that during those chaotic years of war, Hakons died in a war covering the retreat of King Ryan. It is said that Hakons' clan suffered a near-destruction blow at that time, and the entire clan ended up with only a dozen or so. people survived. And after they healed their injuries, Ryan had already established a country. Even the guards around King Ryan had changed several times. However, in order to thank Haakons, King Ryan specially circled a piece of land as Haakons. Clan territory.

However, in the years that followed, the territory of the Harkons clan was invaded to varying degrees, and since the third King of Ryan, there has long been no incense with the Harkons clan, so it was almost a dukedom. The territory of the city has become a small town like it is today. If it weren't for the charter issued by the first King of Lane, maybe this small town named Haakons would be demolished and rebuilt.

It is precisely because of such years of tempering that the townspeople of Harkons Town have strong vigilance and exclusiveness towards other people in Ryan. Basically, except for the necessary material transactions, the residents of Harkons Town will not have any contact with the outside world, and any major celebrations of the Kingdom of Lane have nothing to do with them, they will only celebrate the festivals that belong to the people of Harkons .

In fact, if Harkons Town is a country-they have their own festivals, laws, guards, tax rates, and all government affairs and military appointments in the entire town, they don't even need to hand over to Ryan The town tax is not under the jurisdiction of any lord or noble, and even the privilege of the nobles of Ryan is invalid in the town of Harkons. In fact, this kind of behavior is an impermissible provocation for the nobles of Lane, but because Hakons Town has a franchise issued by the first King of Lane, there is no way to do anything against it—of course , no nobleman is willing to be the first bird to rectify Harkons.

Anyway, the townspeople of Harkons Town are only a few hundred people, even if everyone can fight, it is not a threat to Ryan. Therefore, the nobles of Ryan adopted another method to deal with the town of Harkons, which was to adopt a policy similar to the economic blockade, but such a policy was feasible for the caravans unique to those lords, but for The caravans of the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance and those adventurers and mercenaries who pass here for supplies and rest are meaningless.

And when Sean and the others headed from the void to the capital of Ryan, they also didn't pass through this small town in order to save some unnecessary troubles. But this time, because of Hela's plan, Xiao En and the others will rest in this small town and continue on the road the next day.

In fact, Sean wouldn't want to be in the town if he had the choice.

When the team entered the town, Sean and the others felt the hostile gazes from the townspeople of Harkons.

In fact, outsiders who usually enter the town of Haakons will not feel such obvious hostile gazes. At most, these townspeople are only maintaining a certain degree of vigilance against all outsiders. It's just that although the team of Xiao En and others is not huge, they have existences that these townspeople can't usually see. One or two elves and a ground dragon, these are naturally dangerous in the eyes of Hakons townspeople. synonymous with.

So the townspeople are hostile to Xiao En and others, Xiao En is naturally understandable. Similarly, he feels that he actually needs to bear about half of the responsibility. After all, he has a professional punishment effect of "mercenary", and Hakons, who is so exclusive, naturally does not like the so-called mercenary. However, even though Sean had expected this kind of thing, he still felt a little helpless when it actually happened. It was just that before Sean could clarify the customs of this town, as the two elves who are most sensitive to the outside world, they felt helpless. They have already made the same aggressive reaction in tandem and at the same time.

Vinia's hands were already resting on the dagger at his waist.

Marton's left hand rested lightly on the longbow at the front of the saddle, and his right hand seemed to be casually placed on the quiver tail feather on the right side of the saddle.

Even Rui Na clenched the Flaming Spear in her hands, Fragmented Kong.

Such a move naturally made the Hakons townspeople look even more unhappy, and many townspeople also touched their own weapons.

As a completely independent town, Hakon's customs and habits are very different from those of the outside world. Almost all Harkons children begin formal militarized training at the age of six. This series includes mounted combat, foot combat and a series of militarized projects related to it. It was jointly formulated by Hacons, and it was once a training program for the elite Royal Guards Corps.

Therefore, although there are only a few hundred residents in the small town of Harkons, no matter men, women or children, they are all elite soldiers who become cavalry when mounted and infantry when dismounted. Based on the evaluation of the players in the game at the beginning, if the remnants of Hakons were gathered together, the combat effectiveness of their legion would probably be between level 4 and level 5. The only pity is that the number of people is too small, and local battle conflicts It may be very powerful, but once it rises to the legion-level large-scale battle, these Hakons survivors will have no advantage.

But for so many years, the town of Harkons is still alive and well. No matter what the nobles of Ryan think, it has not been demolished and rebuilt. Therefore, players speculate that this town may have at least one sanctuary powerhouse or several high-ranking gold powerhouses sit in town. Judging from Sean's experience of living in Ryan's world for several years, he feels that the probability of the latter is obviously higher, because if he is a strong man in the sanctuary, then it is impossible for Ryan to let those nobles invade Haakons survivors soil of.

And Sean didn't want to stay in the town of Harkons, mainly because he didn't want to cause any conflicts and contradictions here.

"My lord." As a senior and exclusive butler for nobles, Hampson could naturally feel those hostile gazes.

"Everyone don't need to be nervous." Sean said softly, and at the same time waved his hand to signal Vinia and others not to move. It's just us, so they won't kick us out as long as we don't cause trouble."

Xiao En's words made Reina and the others relax a little bit, but as a strong person, they are still extremely sensitive to this kind of hostile sight, which makes them a little uncomfortable. It's just that the residents of Harkons Town didn't react too aggressively when they saw Sean and the others, so naturally they wouldn't really look for trouble. The aura it exudes is also different from that of ordinary adventurer teams.

The two sides passed each other in this delicate atmosphere: the Hakons remnants continued to be busy with their own affairs, while Sean and the others continued to move towards the south of the town.

There is the only inn in the entire town of Harkons.

This inn called "Wind of Remembrance" was not opened by the townspeople of Harkons, but by a couple of outsiders.

In fact, this couple plays a vital role here in the small town of Harkons, and they are the only link between the small town of Harkons and the outside world. Almost all the foreign goods trade in the town of Harkons is purchased through this couple, and the same things they sell are also sold here by this couple, so naturally, all adventurers and mercenaries come to After arriving in this small town, it is also here to replenish and rest.

According to the original setting of the game, after leaving Harkons Town, there are a total of three leveling points, covering three different monster spawning areas ranging from level 20 to level 50. Moreover, Hakons also has a large number of tasks here, but they are prestige-limited tasks-that is to say, Hakons' reputation system must be activated before he can receive various tasks from Hakons town. kind of task.

Based on the fact that more things are worse than less troubles, and the task rewards are basically only applicable to the players of the lower silver and the next stage, so Sean has no idea of ​​​​invigorating Hakon's reputation, so he Directly ask Hampson to negotiate with the owner of the "Wind of Remembrance" inn.

The value of a housekeeper comes in handy at such times.

The interior of Sean's carriage has been transformed into a bed, and Cefanio is lying in it at this time. Cecilia is usually responsible for taking care of Sefanio, and occasionally Rena will take over. As for Vinia and Marton, they are only in charge of vigilance. Even if they stayed in the hotel at this time, Sean and the others only had two rooms, one for Cecilia and one for Hampson, but he asked that no one near the stables be allowed to approach, and he could pay for seven rooms. fee.

Regarding Sean's request, the owner of this hotel was actually quite incomprehensible, but it didn't hinder anyone, or it was just a matter of little effort, so the owner of the hotel didn't make things difficult for Sean and others. people. Of course, in Xiao En's view, the Black Stone should be a major factor. After all, it is not a common thing to run dragons in the hinterland of Ryan King's Capital, and most people probably won't know that it is a dragon. Earth Dragon.

However, just as Sean and the others were busy rectifying the situation around the stable, there was a sudden messy noise in the hotel, as if there was some quarrel, and then Sean heard Hamp Sen groaned in pain.
