Chapter 119: Bitchy Skinned Adventurer
Chapter 118 – Bitchy Skin Adventurer
Walking out of the center of the town, Cord, who was in a cold sweat, slowly exhaled a breath, how could he not think that the maid he sent out back then was so powerful, no, it should be terrifying.
It is not pretense, but the mastery of the power and their own ability to brew out of the aura, only those who are really in power of the elite can have a unique temperament, resulting in the conversation just now, Cord was suppressed in all aspects, if not the other side to leave the bottom line, he was afraid that has long been lost in a mess.
At this time, Cod can not help but regret that at first looked away from the eyes, if the other party to stay in the Chamber of Commerce, perhaps the President will not be so passive, after all, talent is rare, the real elite is one in a million.
Of course, Coeur is just a thought, because he knows very well, even if he knew the other side of the talent, the end will not have any change.
Cord picked a store on the street, the location is good, the area is not small, so the money he brought is not enough at all, can only use the goods as collateral, how much to sell have to pay, so this trip is considered to be in vain.
But Cord was satisfied, because the Hai Rui Chamber of Commerce was the only foreign chamber of commerce in the entire territory, he had seized the first opportunity, and that was enough.
Cord left a few fellows here to sell the goods, and then couldn’t wait to return, because his bold move would once again put the chairman in a passive position, but he didn’t believe that the chairman couldn’t see the opportunity contained in this.
The arrival and departure of the Hai Rui Chamber of Commerce was clear to Owen, but he didn’t do anything, not even converting the manpower that the other party had brought.
The transformation of the system is not foolproof, at least not the town center, first the other party must agree to join the territory and recognize his rule, this is the foundation, even if the mouth shouts long live my emperor, the heart still resists, the transformation will not be completed.
Moreover, the smarter the person is, the more difficult it is to convert, because smart people have a lot of thoughts, and it is difficult to completely let go.
At the beginning of the transformation, because the target are serfs, no one will resist to become a farmer who owns land and house, so Owen did not realize this.
Later, when he converted those nomadic tribes and residents of Mara Town, especially when there were merchants inside, Owen realized this problem.
Fortunately, the living conditions in the territory are so good that only a very few people resisted, and this part of the people also became the victims of the construction of the stone wall, doing hard labor until death, even if they regret it is useless.
It is because of this reason that Owen is distressed by the arrival of outsiders, or else come one to convert one, what is there to be afraid of.
Unfortunately, with the gradual warming of the weather, more and more outsiders entered the territory, they were very surprised that there was a town of such size in such a remote place, but they did not care about this, and would not look for the reason, but instead they were very happy, because it meant that they would have a stable place to settle down, and would be able to go to the farther place to explore.
The composition of these outsiders was complicated, scouts, robbers, wanted criminals, adventurers, pioneers, vagabonds, it could be said that even in their veins flowed instability.
But the territory was prepared for this, and Howard, who had been appointed as the city’s defense officer, would take up the mantle.
Since coming to the territory, Howard is like a new spring, will all the family to pick up after the focus on the work, after all, with the territory’s living welfare completely do not need to worry about life, even armor, weapons, horses and servants are ready-made. With sufficient motivation, Howard personally planned the patrol routes, and sufficient strength and strict adherence to the orders of the soldiers can let him free to play, to ensure that there will be no dead ends.
At the same time Howard also appointed his son Hogg as the town’s magistrate, personally leading a team of elite soldiers responsible for the arrest of troublemakers, to give a deterrent.
This year, eighteen-year-old Hogg in the adequate nutrition and strict training under the growth of very strong, not far from the awakening of the fighting spirit has not far away, a hand chained to the hammer with a big shield, the general is really not his opponent, not to mention the side with ten longswords, ten crossbowmen and ten nomadic cavalry, the real fight, even if the tacit understanding of the adventurers squad only to escape.
Moreover, they may not be able to run away, because the nomadic cavalry is not ordinary cavalry, no matter the curved sword, flying axe, short bow, or lasso, they are all sharp weapons to deal with these people.
Leading such a group of elite men, even the most restless people would rationally choose to remain silent after seeing them, including several infamous wanted criminals.
These people committed a crime in the empire, fled to the border of the empire is also restless, after being wanted to finally run to this, would like to relax a little bit and then make a big case, but after seeing the many elite soldiers and cavalry here, decided to temporarily as a good citizen, because once the crime, can not run away from the fight, dead.
The only exception is the adventurers, they are insulated from the word “peace and quiet”, and they are not afraid of danger, on the contrary, the more dangerous they are, the more excited they are, or else they will not be regarded as an unstable factor by the lords of various places.
Even Owen has a headache with adventurers, the degree of fear is even above the dark forces, because except for a few brain-dead who want to destroy the world, most of the dark forces are either seeking money or power, anyway, they can be negotiated, and can even cooperate.
But adventurers can’t, they also like money and power, also dream of a leisurely life after retirement, but getting into trouble is almost their instinct, because their curiosity and adventurous spirit can’t be controlled at all, which can’t be solved by spending money.
Owen had heard Maya say that in the long history, the empire had many crises that destroyed cities and countries, and close to 80% of them were caused by adventurers, and even if they weren’t, they were still related to them, which showed the destructive power of adventurers.
Owen’s capital is not enough for them to cause trouble, otherwise he would not specialize in creating an adventurer’s paradise in Green Shade Town, and use the relics as bait in order to constrain the destructive power of the adventurers to a range.
The fact was just as Owen had guessed, the attention of the adventurers was not placed on the town of Akita.
Akita Town was the name Owen gave to the territorial town, because outside of the town was a large expanse of farmland, and at a glance in the fall, the golden waves of wheat simply made people wonder if this was the barren Northlands, hence the name Akita.
But the rich town of Akita is not the goal of the adventurers, here is too calm, the soldiers are too many, there is no place for adventurers to play a role, and even less quests, so their attention quickly shifted to the Magic Horn Forest, because the entire territory around the empty, the only place that can hide the opportunity is only where.
Of course, although Owen saw Green Shade Town as a bait to lure the adventurers, it wouldn’t be too obvious, otherwise it was hard to guarantee that some adventurers would toss things up again.
To put it bluntly, the adventurers are a group of cheap skin, sent to the mouth of the meat suspicion, have to hit the head broken blood all over the body injury, only smile and take the bloody meat to gnaw, because this is fragrant.
