Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 983:  Agent

The Dark Land falls between the trading capital of Sadin and Iron Spear Ridge. There are only a few ways to reach the two places. One passes through the dark land, pays the poll tax, and is usually not embarrassed by the bandits in the fierce land. The two are going through the borders of business, and the business way bypasses the dark places, but it takes a few more days. The third method is waterway, but the waterway is not available all year round, and the port and docks are limited, and it often takes more detours than the commercial road. If it is a short-distance business trip, rarely choose water.

So for most caravans, the only choices are the first two methods. The vast majority of people choose to go through the Dark Land, even though there is a poll tax and there are risks. But Shangdao may not be a good choice. When the border business passes through different territories, it also needs to pay customs duties to the local lords. Tariffs in some territories are not cheaper than dark places, or even higher.

The only guarantee is that there will be no bandits on the business road.

The Dark Place is one of the three most fierce places in the empire, and thieves are one of the reasons. But after all, the reason why this dark world can exist to this day is because of the imperial inaction. With the strength of the Balkan Empire, any army can be used to smooth out the dark place. This is a truth that cannot be more simple. However, until now, the dark place still exists, so many people can't figure it out.

In fact, after the imperial inaction, what is involved is the long-standing power structure of this human empire. Several elite divisions of the Balkan Empire are guarded at the frontiers or border gates. The military affairs are busy, and they will not move to other places. So in a place like the Dark Land, if you want to wipe out the thieves in it, you will inevitably use the army of the nearby lord, which will become a local affair.

In this way, a lot of maneuverable space is given to the interested person. After all, the imperial royal family's control over lords everywhere is limited, and the empire can only intervene forcibly unless the lords have major dereliction of duty like the black twilight collar. It is not difficult to imagine why the former imperial prime minister Nebot's policy of depriving the troops of various territories was introduced, and it was strongly opposed by the whole country. The reason lies here. If the policy of cutting the army is implemented, the interests of the lords in various places will suffer a huge blow, and the empire's control over the lords will be strengthened as never before, no longer the loose structure of the present.

The dark place is under the power structure of the empire, ∵←style_txt; has been preserved through the manipulation of some big figures. Naturally, this place has also become an important tool for those big men to seek private wealth.

In the dark land, there is a so-called agent. These agents usually serve the big figures, convey their meanings, and communicate with the band of thieves in the dark land, playing the role of supporting shafts.

Meggis is one of the many agents in the Darklands, and he is also the man who brought an important turning point in Joey's life.

If it hadn't been for Meggis, there would be no such thing as Joey the Undead in the Dark Land. At that time, Joey was in his prime, and the Wolf Warriors were only a second-rate bandit with dozens of murderers, and Joey hadn't even broken through the twentieth level. Had it not been for that sunny afternoon, he had promised to cooperate with Meggis, he would not have received a steady stream of support. The big man behind Meggis gave him equipment, horses, and vital things.

Source Crystal Stone!

It was an item made by a royal alchemist, and the recipe came from an ancient technology that had been lost. The source crystal stone can provide the user with a large amount of non-attribute source power, so as to instantly fill up the source power required for a level or even several level gaps. Usually this kind of marketable and priceless thing is only used by the children of the royal family and the rich and powerful, let alone people like Joey get a crystal stone, they have never heard of it.

It is with the funding of the boss behind Megis that Joey can break through the 20th mark in one fell swoop, and the wolf can also grow rapidly. In the end, in just ten years, Joey became the number one powerhouse in the Dark Land, and Wolf Warriors became one of the big four.

It is no exaggeration to say that everything that Joey and Wolf Warriors now have is based on Meggis and the big man behind the representative.

Meggis has rarely come to the dark places in recent years, so as soon as Gang passed through, Joey became a little more nervous for no reason. This agent will be here now, and something must have happened.

In a hall of the Temple of the Undead, Joey met Meggis. He is still the same, wearing a fur cape that is not expensive but warm enough. Even at this moment when winter has passed, Meggis, who has lived in the north, still can't take off his thick winter clothes, which seems to have become a habit of him. Joey was even in a daze. When he first met Meggis, he was a handsome middle-aged man. But now, he is already an old man in sixties. And because there is no source of power, he is much older than Joey.

His head was covered with cream, and his handsome face was already wrinkled. Bend down and leaned on crutches, Megis was too old to walk.

Joey breathed out a depressed breath and greeted him with open arms: "Mr. Meggis, my dear friend, why are you here at this time."

Meggis grinned and showed two rows of yellow teeth: "I want to see you again while I'm not dead. Joey, you are the biggest gain in my life. After this meeting, the next time, we can only see you in hell. Up."

Joey embraced the old man's shoulders enthusiastically, and said to Gunn on one side: "Go and prepare the best wine for me. Tonight, we are going to prepare the grandest dinner for the everlasting friend of Wolf Warriors, Mr. Meggis."

Meggis did not stop, because it was the courtesy he deserved.

After Gang En went down, the old man put away his smile and said, "I can smell the fishy smell and the smell of herbs. Why, your old thing is hurt? Who hurt you?"

"It's just a small matter."

Meggis shook his head: "Even if you and someone bought it back~www.readwn.com~, there wouldn't be any smell of herbs on your body. Now you need herbs for healing, Joey, we are all old."

Joey was silent.

Meggis slapped haha ​​and said, "Follow it, even the big figures in the Ten Saints, but they live longer than us, they will be old and die. We have no feelings." He used The crutches nodded Joey's chest and said, "This time, apart from seeing you the old guy for the last time, that adult still has a message for you."

Joey squinted his eyes. "My lord hasn't spoken for years."

"After all, this time the matter is important." Meggis shrugged, "Otherwise, I don't have to crawl out of the coffin and run like this." Then the agent lowered his voice and said, "My lord wants you to kill someone. At all costs, even if your wolves are wiped out, you must strive to kill this person in the dark land."

"What!" Joey shook his whole body and exclaimed in exclamation.
