White Dragon Lord

At night, Xuetao City.

The first day the two dream-chasing teenagers came to the land of dreams, they suffered a serious blow.

That is—they might be sleeping on the streets tonight~.

Edie Campbell leaned against the white wall with a burden on his back.

Beside him is a brightly lit wooden door, and the house is very lively, with the cries of human mercenaries punching and drinking, the peculiar wolf howls of gnolls, and even the thunderous laughter of ogres. , there is also a mixed aroma of ale and food.

The mixed fragrance penetrated into Edie's nose, and the noble young master felt a little hungry.

But when he thought that he might have to sleep on the road like a homeless refugee tonight, he was in no mood to eat. Although he was only the second son of Viscount Campbell, he had also eaten in fine clothes since he was a child, so he had suffered such grievances.

At this moment, Idi's businessman friend walked out of the door with a downcast face.

"It's full here too."

Edie felt that the world was full of malice, but as expected, he put his hands on the wall, stood upright, and looked at the bright moon rising in the east in distress.

"Let's go, let's look again, there must be some empty rooms."

Merchant Milne mourned and wailed.

"This is the eighth one. I'm going to you. I can't walk anymore."

Edie's expression was serious and serious.

"Trust me, Milne, it's nothing but nine."

Milne angrily hammered the wall beside the hammer.

"It's only three! My friend! You've said that since the third time! Three, four, five, six, seven, eight are the same."

Edie's face fell instantly.

"Then what do you say? Is it possible that we really want to sleep on the street? It's winter now~!"

"It's not as bad as you think."

Milne shook his head and pointed sideways to a bench by the street.

"We can sleep on the benches, I checked when we came, the benches here have been installed for no more than two months, and they are cleaned every day, very clean, we can spread our clothes and cover our faces for the night. "

As soon as the words fell, two human beings who were also carrying a burden and dressed for a long journey walked past them quickly, and took the lead in occupying the two benches by the roadside.

Edie looked at the two of the same kind who took out the clothes and spread them on the bench, shrugged, and looked at the companion whose mouth was twitching with mixed feelings.

"Come on, I'm looking for a pub. If there's still no room available, let's find a bench."

"Okay, the last one."

Milne felt a little tired and moved powerlessly.

Gollum~.

Edie glanced at the stomach of his businessman friend. Milne was just an ordinary person, and he did not have the physical strength as a middle-level warrior.

"Let's have something to eat here first."

After speaking, Edie walked towards the tavern first, and Milne quickly followed.

Before entering the door, Milne looked up at the wooden board hanging on the door of the tavern. On the wooden board were painted an abstract jackal, a wine glass, and a few large curved characters.

Following the lights in the tavern, Milne read these big words.

"Wolf and wine."

Milne thought to herself.

"Sooner or later I will have my own tavern in Xuetao City."

The son of a wealthy businessman was full of resentment towards the tavern at this time.

After Edie stepped over the threshold of the tavern and entered the noisy room, the first thing he saw was a mahogany bar. Behind the bar stood a saucy gnoll wearing a red checkered vest.

That's right, it's a bag.

If it was just a red vest, then Edie wouldn't think that this gnoll was a slut. In addition to the arrogant vest, this gnoll was covered in gray hair, only with a bunch of red hair on the top of his head and ears. Each with three golden rings.

The rude laughter of the mercenaries and monsters made the pampered aristocratic young master frown, and he said loudly.

"Boss, bring us here..."

Before Edie could finish speaking, the red-haired gnoll interrupted him.

"Gone,

The room was full early. "

Obviously, the gnolls took Edie, who was carrying a burden, as a lodging passenger. Since the opening of the airline, there have been too many human beings like this.

Edie was a little embarrassed, not because of the gnoll's misunderstanding, but his misunderstanding, the gnoll's voice was a female voice.

This gnoll is actually a mother!

After speaking, the female gnoll continued to wipe the oak wine glass in her hand and left Edie to hang out at the door.

Milne's voice sounded behind Edie, defusing the awkward scene.

"Cough, cough, lady boss, we just want to find something to eat."

"That's it."

Only then did the gnoll proprietress raise her head, and she had a little impression of Milne who had come here once.

"We have fresh sea fish and mussel shells. Of course, if you are not used to seafood, I also have beef and mutton, but the price is a little higher."

In order to avoid conflicts at checkout, the gnoll proprietress took the lead in making it clear.

It's just that Edie looked at the smile of the gnoll proprietress, and no matter how he looked at it, he felt similar to the profiteer beside him.

Businessman - Milne didn't know the "slander" in his friend's heart. He looked at the gap between the thumb and index finger of the gnoll proprietress, and rolled his eyes secretly.

Is that a little bit? ! It is several times more expensive, okay!

The overseas archipelago is rich in seafood, so the price is cheap, and the number of cattle and sheep is scarce, and the price is several times higher than the mainland. Even the son of a wealthy businessman like Milne is a little distressed.

"No, we're tired of beef and mutton. Let's have a grilled sea fish and a plate of braised fresh scallops."

Milne looked at the giant stomach warrior beside him and added.

"Twenty mud turtle eggs, ten steamed buns, and two glasses of ale. Let's just leave it alone for now, it's not enough to add more."

Milne finished ordering the dishes skillfully, and every time he negotiated with the tavern owner, he was the one who took the lead. During the negotiation, the shrewd businessman collected a lot of useful information.

For example, the prices of overseas islands, the location of other taverns….

After ordering, the two looked into the tavern.

There happened to be an empty table in the corner of the tavern, and the two passed through the other guests who were laughing loudly and came to the empty table to sit down.

Milne put the burden on the wooden bench and hammered his aching thighs, while Edie looked at the guests at the other tables.

Among these guests, there are not many human beings, most of them are monsters like gnolls and murlocs, and there is even an ogre who is holding a wine barrel and drinking on his back.

While waiting for the food, Edie carefully observed the ogre who was sitting taller than he was standing. To deal with these amazing brute force guys, at least five intermediate warriors, or one high-level warrior, were needed. There is a possibility that the gutter capsizes.

However, Idi is not afraid. Along the way, although he has seen not many ogres, there are not many, and it is not surprising that they are common.

It didn't take long for the fish-man waiter to bring the dishes over with a tray.

At this time, sitting on the solid wood stool, the ogre who was drinking with his head raised his head found that the wine barrel was out of water, shook the wine barrel, and then realized that there was no more wine, and slammed the empty wine barrel in his hand on the table.

Boom!

A loud noise overwhelmed all the voices in the tavern, and the scene suddenly fell silent. Milne wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and picked up the spoon that fell to the ground in fright.

But the ogre didn't notice the strangeness around it, and it used its big grinding-disc-like hand to wipe away the wine stains on the corners of its mouth and chin, and shouted.

"Little matchmaker! Another bucket! Hiccup~!"

"Hawk! You damn bastard! What a roar! Scare the old lady!"

Although the jackal proprietress screamed fiercely, she called the kobold bartender to bring the wine with a smile on her face.

Ogre Hawk took over the barrel and continued drinking, and the frightened drinker did not dare to trouble an ogre.

Edie opened a clam shell, sucked the delicious clam meat into his mouth, took another sip of ale, and suppressed his frightened heart beating violently. Like the other guests, he chose to endure.

Afterwards, the two had their own dinner.

Soon, the pub resumed its lively atmosphere.

The two listened to the conversations of other guests while eating. The tavern was a mixed bag, with all kinds of people, and it was a good place to gather intelligence after drinking.

A human mercenary armor blushed, and said mysteriously to the surrounding companions.

"Have you heard? The Forgotten Adventure Group discovered an underwater ruin in Stormwind Bay!"

Human Mercenary B looked disappointed.

"Hey, I thought what was going on, I knew about your news a day ago."

Although the second human mercenary was disdainful, the corners of his mouth were quietly raised, and he was obviously very proud that his news was one step ahead of others.

"However, most people in the Forgotten Adventure Group can't go into the water, they can only stare at the ruins, hahaha."

The human mercenary C took a swig of ale.

"Hey~, unfortunately, the ruins are on the bottom of the sea. Even if we rush over, we can't even drink a sip of soup."

The murloc's eyes lit up at the table next to him, obviously having an idea, and the human businessman at the other table said with a smile.

"If you really plan to go into the sea to make a fortune, you can buy underwater breathing medicine. There is an alchemist in my shop, as long as you can afford the price, hee hee..."

Another mercenary slapped the table.

"Come on, Maddie, just your little shabby shop and an alchemist. I think it's an alchemy apprentice who was kicked out of the academy, hahaha."

The crowd burst into laughter, and the businessman who was exposed to his old bottom—Madi was not annoyed, but instead took the opportunity to stand up to solicit business.

"Everyone, everyone, I'm the owner of the Fandora alchemy shop in the White Shark block - Madi, you can come to me if you need anything, just for this wonderful encounter today, anyone who comes to me for the first time I'll give you a 10% discount for shopping in the store."

"Oh! Maddie, you bastard! For the sake of new friends, you have left us old friends in the ditch, and you must give us an explanation today!"

"Yes, yes! Give us an explanation!"

Everyone was booing one after another, and the businessman Ma Di couldn't resist, and quickly apologized.

"Tomorrow, old friends are also 10% off!"

"Hahaha, a toast to our generous Maddie boss!"

"Yes, to Boss Maddie!"

Looking at the mercenaries toasting their glasses, or celebrating the common victory, Milne shook his head, and at the same time admired the tactics of this Maddie boss.

Maddie wasn't angry when he was exposed. Instead, he thought of his own business. Young Milne was very impressed by his open-mindedness, or his thick-skinned face.

This is one of them.

Second, Maddy's move has successfully attracted a wave of new customers for himself. As for the old customers who feel that they get a 10% discount and take advantage of it, have they really found a bargain?

The answer is of course yes, but the cheapness is not as big as they imagined. Ma Di said that there is only a discount tomorrow. If the mercenaries have no tasks, they seldom buy expensive alchemy items.

Therefore, Ma Di's 10% discount promise not to lose much profit. In addition, this move makes Ma Di's image in the hearts of the mercenaries instantly increase. If the mercenaries need alchemy items in the future, they will be the first to think of this " Generous" Maddy boss.

Even if the mercenaries have a mission and go to buy alchemy items tomorrow, Ma Di is not a loss. The initial investment cost of a shop is the most. The mercenary bought the item and Maddy got the money back.

It can be seen that Madi will definitely be a successful businessman.

Milne held the wine glass and walked to the wine table of this fellow, intending to get acquainted.

A successful businessman is inseparable from excellent contacts.

Edie's focus is obviously different from that of his businessman friends. He pays more attention to the news of the ruins.

But he is not one of those reckless mercenaries. He thinks that he may really make a fortune in the ruins. Edie has received aristocratic education, and he can always see through the situation. On the way here, he has heard many times about the name of the Forgotten Adventure Group. .

Such an adventure group with an official background must be able to contact the top murlocs. When these idiots who heard the news and bought a large number of underwater breathing medicines ran over, how would they compete with the murloc masters underwater?

The end result is very likely to be lost.

But this news is not without value to Idi. There must be a high-level Forgotten Adventure Group around the ruins in charge. Such a powerful official adventure group is exactly what Idi, who has just arrived, is eager to join.

Edie's eyes sparkled, thinking about whether to buy some underwater breathing medicine, go to the ruins of Stormwind Bay, and perform well in front of the top officials of the Forgotten Adventure Group, win the appreciation of the top officials of the Adventure Group, and join the Forgotten Adventure Group.

There is a world of difference between actively joining and receiving an invitation to join.

After a meal, the two were very satisfied. They got a lot of information. Just when they were about to get up to check out, the bar of the tavern broke out with a lion in the east..., a wolf roar.

"What? Not enough money?! Hawke! You bastard want to repay your debts?!"

As soon as the two heard it, they understood what was going on.

Ogre - Hawke drank a lot and didn't have enough money to settle the bill.

But it was none of their business, and the two got up and walked to the bar.

Ogre-Hawk was about to explain something to the gnoll proprietress, but the gnoll proprietress waved her hand impatiently, interrupting the ogre to continue speaking, and it opened the mouth to the two outsiders who were full of food and drink.

"Two guests from afar, I remember that you don't seem to have a place to live, do you?"

"Oh~, yes."

Edie was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise.

"Is there any room available?"

"No."

The jackal proprietress spread her hands.

Eddie: "..."

"However, I have a way."

The gnoll proprietress pointed to the drunken ogre beside the two.

"This guy Hawke lives nearby, and his house happens to have a spare room. If you can help him pay for his drinks, I think he will be happy to take you in, don't you think? Hawke!"

The drunken ogre - Hawke nodded.

"That's right! I have a guest room in my house."

Let the two live for one night, and they will not lose a piece of meat, but can save a fortune on wine, and a fool would not be willing.

The two stared at each other.

...

Under the bright moonlight, on the white Xuetao City Street.

A pair of homeless travelers, Edie and Milne, followed behind the ogre, Hawk. Hawk's huge volume blocked the moonlight, and the shadow shrouded them both.

Milne felt like a dream at the moment, he leaned into his companion's ear and said softly.

"So, we're going to live in an ogre's house?!"

Edie nodded sullenly, they agreed with the advice of the gnoll proprietress and helped the ogre-Hawk to make up for the drink.

As for the reason for agreeing, both Edie and Milne already knew the fact that the monsters in the overseas islands never eat intelligent creatures.

But even so, the two still felt nervous at this moment.

Humans take shelter in an ogre's house!

Merchant - Milne covered his face.

Omg! The world is so crazy!
