Medieval Aurora: The Rise of the Dragon

Chapter 63
"As the only province bordering the sea in the empire, Nordland was not actually part of the empire in the earliest days.

It was not until the Emperor Sigismund II the Conqueror, an Elector from Aviland, included Sylvania and Nordland within the empire's territory.In any case, Nordland has now become one of the twelve major provinces of the empire and has the qualifications to be an elector.

And the complex history of this land is an epic chapter worthy of a special book.Even though this area occupies a long part of our journey, I still need to learn more about the people and blood here before I can write these words that can prove that I have been here.

First of all, knowing the ancestry of the Nordlanders is the beginning of understanding their customs.

The invasion of the Tuttgen tribe once put the ancestors of the Nordlanders into a very miserable situation.They were almost driven away and forced to migrate northward on a large scale. In addition, the continuous attacks of the Norscans who took root in the North further deepened the suffering of these people.

But I have to say that this also contributed to the tough and barbaric traits of the Nord leaders, everything is for survival.

It is now widely believed in the rest of the Empire that the Nordlanders are half Norscan, which is an interesting anecdote.And I conducted some targeted research on this. After experiments (the process is blacked out), it turns out that those rumors are not groundless. The blood of the Nord leaders is mixed with Norsca, Tuttgen, and Gatun. partial lineage.

Most Nordlanders see this fact as a shame, so try not to mention it when communicating with them.

In addition, in the process of getting along with these Nordland residents, I made an interesting discovery.

These northerners seem to have an almost paranoid love for stories. I think this is why the most sought-after storytellers in the empire are from Nordland. Of course, this is why it took me so long to read Research those things that are out there in the area.

I think you all remember my job as a storyteller, right?
My first feeling after coming here is that I am in the middle of the noisiest group of people in the whole empire.Of course, according to my own experience, the Nordlanders are also the most honest group of residents. To be precise, they are as honest as a nail smashed into a metal block.Inflexible, tactless and lacking in common sense.

According to previous prejudices, Nordlanders are vulgar and thoughtless, and some people don't even trust their own daughters and sheep at home, especially the group of local merchants, it is simply amazing-they never bargain!
"Bloodline determines character." I'm afraid it's the most appropriate to describe them. In short, they have the strongest warriors in the entire empire, but they are also the rudest group of barbarians.
To sum up, it is for this reason that the Nordlanders are called "people who are not quite like us" in other regions.Because of this, the Nordlanders' redoubled loyalty to the Empire and Ulric the White Wolf is so remarkable.It is undeniable that the Nordlanders will always be the group of people most loyal to the empire. "

Lin Qi gently closed the book, the title of this travel note was written on the cover of the book

- "Someone Not Like Us" by the storyteller from Middenheim, Kleinson.

This is a traveler who has a lot of fame in the empire.

However, although the contents of the book are fascinating, Lin Qi still only read the preface of the book and did not choose to read any further.An accident just happened made him lose the desire to continue reading.

He looked at his bed, the soft and warm quilts seemed to have been ravaged by wild animals and turned into a mess of tattered waste cloth strips.

To be exact, except for the clean area of ​​the table, the whole room has become a mess.

Lin Qi was a little helpless, but he couldn't take any measures against the instigator of this scene. After all, the ice witch's piercing eyes before she left were colder than her magic.

Of course no one can expect a lady who has been rejected twice to look good on the person who rejected her.

After the ugly deeds of the Sharaf family were thoroughly exposed, the level of corruption in the whole city shocked the Ice and Snow King Court.Therefore, the magic tower in the city of Erengrad - House of Frost needs a really experienced ice witch to preside over the overall situation.

And Evelyn, who just finished dealing with the chaotic rift in Eastern State, became a temporary choice, so she was transferred to this port city.

After deciding to leave, Lin Qi thought that he would never meet her again.

When he first came to this world, Evelyn was the first friend he met, earlier than when he became acquainted with Hydera.

Perhaps it is because there are more common languages ​​among the spellcasters, and the strangers have obtained a basic understanding of the world from their friends. Because of this, Lin Qi has always regarded witches as a witch in a certain sense. teacher.

It never occurred to him that the stories and ideas he shared with Evelyn, which were completely different from what other people usually talked about, would have an impact on this witch who had been training and studying in the royal court for many years.After suppressing his emotions all the year round, after losing the functions that can help him absorb hormones, it also blunted Lin Qi's sense of love.

No matter where the emotion came from, it has been rejected by Longzi now.When she left, Lin Qi couldn't fathom what kind of mental journey it was, but he recognized the lady's anger.

"Maybe I should think about where to stay tonight." Gathering his scattered thoughts, Lin Qi didn't indulge in the emotions brought by the Ice Witch. He focused on the present moment and was ready to take action immediately.

When he went down the stairs, Lin Qi was surprised to find that the guests of the Bear Tavern seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time.

The drinkers hissed loudly at the Orientals, which was the men in the Northland mocking Lin Qi's behavior of rejecting the beautiful women who came to their door.

Lin Qi suddenly felt a burst of joy, so he threw out his small bag, and the burlap bag hit the counter with a loud clatter.

Immediately afterwards, Longzi's words brought the atmosphere to its climax, "Drink whatever you want today, I will pay for it."

"Oh oh oh oh oh!" A mercenary stepped on his stool, immediately drank the beer in his glass, and then shouted to the surrounding crowd: "I'll say it! It's the problem of that fierce woman!"

The mercenary's words caused a burst of laughter, and people immediately forgot about the episode just now in front of the free drinks, and some even tried to touch Lin Qi's shoulder with a glass.

While everyone was not paying attention, the tavern owner quietly used his little finger to open the string at the mouth of the pocket, and there were two golden female czarinas mixed in the silvery light in the pocket.

Oh, God, after he weighed the weight of the bag, he covered his heart. At this moment, he even felt that he could stand behind the counter for another three days and three nights.The chubby middle-aged man slammed vats of beer on the counter, "Drunkards! Give me a hard drink! Hit me! Be mad! I'm going to drown you here today!"

Amidst the howling of ghosts and wolves, Lin Qi pushed open the door and walked towards the Bretonnia area.
