Soul Echo

Riding on horseback with the map spread out in front of him, Zhong Ye held the Compass in his hand, feeling a little embarrassed.

It stands to reason that he can go all the way to Northwest to get to Constantinople, and the map also shows various territories and regions, but he seems to be going astray...

It may be because the map is not real-time, and every road is not marked... It should not be your own problem!

But he obviously walked along the main road, how could he go wrong?

Looking at the map for a while, Zhong Ye sighed, looking up ahead.

The undulating mountain range is like a giant dragon crawling on the ground, and each towering tree is its scales. Zhong Ye rode a horse and walked on the 'ant road' beside the giant dragon , this silk-like slender trail twists and turns as the mountain range goes.

This road, formed by rolling over by vehicles and trampling by horseshoes, is the 'line of life' connecting the south-eastern and north-eastern provinces of Etrul, or the Lower Orient and the Upper Orient. .

Two mountain ranges cut off the land communication between the two eastern provinces of Etruscan. There are only three land roads connecting the two provinces. These three roads are called by the Etruscans' The thread of life' means the thread that holds the life of the kingdom together.

It is precisely because of these three land roads that it is difficult for foreign enemies to invade Etrul. Once someone chooses to invade a certain of the two provinces, as long as the three roads are blocked, even if the province can be captured, Also unable to continue the offensive, instead, Etrul could send troops from three land routes and could also transport troops from the Mediterranean.

To take Etrull from the east, you need to take two eastern provinces at the same time, but no country, past or present, has this kind of power.

It stands to reason that Zhong Ye should take the road named 'Lachesis' in the middle of the map, but now he has come to 'Kloto'.

This road is closer to the Mediterranean Sea. In the past, when Etrul was invaded, they would reorganize the army and hoard goods here, and then defeat the enemy and win the victory.

From here to Constantinople, the journey is long, and it will take more time to go back.

The eastern province of Etrull has not been invaded for more than 100 years, because the situation in West Asia has been corrupted and chaotic for more than 60 years.

Therefore, there are also several more towns along the three 'lines of life'.

On the map, there is a seaside town called 'The Reef' ahead, and when you get there, it is not far from the exit of 'Cloto'.

The workhorse was not fast, and stopped for a while at noon, so that when the afternoon was approaching evening, Zhong Ye arrived at Reef Town.

It's just that the town is a little strange. There seems to be a gloomy cloud covering the sky of the town, and many people's faces are filled with sorrow.

Zhong Ye's newly acquired qualities played a very strong role here, even if people seemed to have no energy, he was willing to answer when he inquired about small town taverns and hotels.

The town is small, with only one hotel, located on the edge of the pier.

Therefore, the first thing the men in the town do after returning from fishing at sea is often not to go home, but to have a drink in this hotel that also serves as a pub.

However, when Zhong Ye brought a horse to the front of the hotel, he found that it was already full of people.

The backyard of the hotel has long been filled with goods, so that the goods of the latecomers have been piled up in the carriage, parked on the street, and need to be guarded at night.

There is a wharf next to the hotel. There are a large number of fishing boats moored in the wharf, and it seems that no one goes out to sea to fish.

Before getting close to the hotel, Zhong Ye could smell the smell of horse dung. Even if there was a sea breeze blowing, the strong smell could not be dispelled.

Zhong Ye frowned, it seems, 'Kloto' is blocked, otherwise there would not be so many merchants stagnant here, just don't know why.

Landslide? Or is the monster blocking the way? But it looks like it should be something that can hopefully be resolved in a short time.

Seeing someone leading the horse, a person sitting outside the hotel stood up, but was quickly pulled by the person beside him, and his companion raised his chin, motioning him to look over.

"Sir, do you want to find a place to stay?"

A young woman with bright makeup came up to meet Zhong Ye, stretched out her hand and took Zhong Ye's arm, "The hotel has already It's full, if you don't mind, you can stay at my house, you just need to pay some money."

Zhong Ye glanced at the woman, and then at the man sitting in front of the hotel. those people.

They look like residents of this town, but they have no intention of taking this woman's 'business' because he looks kind? Or is it because of this woman's extraordinary means?

Zhong Ye thought for a while, and took out a Silver Coin under the woman's hopeful gaze, "stay for one night, help me prepare food for tonight and tomorrow morning, as long as I can, by the way, I want to know What happened to 'Clotto'."

The woman's eyes lit up, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to grab the Silver Coin, "Thank you, thank you!"

She took the Silver Coin Put it in a close place, and drag Zhong Ye towards his home.

While walking on the road, the woman and Zhong Ye talked about what happened in front of 'Kloto'.

"I heard them say that there was a white troll in front, a caravan went there, only a few people came back alive, the mercenaries hired by the caravan were not the troll at all. The opponent."

Sure enough, the monster was blocking the way...

"Where's the army?" Zhong Ye asked, "Even if your town only has the power to protect yourself, didn't your mayor contact Ke? The army of Fort Loto?"

The town of Reef is not far from Fort Croto in the Upper East Province.

"There should be..."

The woman thought for a while and said unsure: "A month ago, little Cuito and old Cuito left the town for a while, I I heard from other people in the town that they were here to ask for help."

At this time, the woman suddenly remembered something, "That's right! The army did come, they didn't enter the town, they just sent someone to tell the town. With a long voice, 'Kloto has got through', but I don't know why, and now it's blocked again."

Zhong Ye looked thoughtful and nodded, it seems that he still has to go to that hotel tonight .

…………

Ding!

A Silver Coin bounced from Zhong Ye's hand, flashing rays of light under the light.

"Can someone tell me what happened in front of Reef Town?"

The flash of Silver Coin drew the attention of many people, including the Inn Boss.

"The troll, it's the white troll." The inn Boss sighed with a pipe in his mouth, "It was chased away by the army before, but now it's back... It seems to have something to do with it. Low intelligence, the army couldn't fight it at all, and it fled before meeting it."

Zhong Ye flicked the Silver Coin towards the Boss, and the old-fashioned middle age person caught it.

"Is that white troll very difficult to deal with?"

Boss shook the head, "I haven't seen it, but you can ask them," pointing to the hotel In the corner, "they teamed up to investigate a few days ago, maybe they know something."

After a moment's pause, the Boss held up the Silver Coin and asked, "Do you need wine? The wine money is included in it. ."

Zhong Ye astonished, nodded with a smile, "A few glasses."

Then, Zhong Ye carried a plate with a few glasses of wine on it, and walked to the corner .

Walking to the table where the few people were sitting around, Zhong Ye hooked up a chair with his legs and put the wine on the table, "I want to know the information about that white troll."

Before several adventurers could speak, they saw him pressing a Silver Coin under his fingers and pushing it to the center of the wine table.

"Who can tell me who it belongs to."

Adventurers were not in a hurry, they looked at each other, one of them looked towards Zhong Ye and asked: "Do you want to What are you going to do? Kill that monster?"

Zhong Ye didn't touch the wine that Zhong Ye brought, just looked at him and waited for his answer.

"If possible, I would like to try."

In order to get better attributes when leveling up, Zhong Ye must hunt down all kinds of powerful monsters.

And at the beginning, he would become an internal beta player of "Soul Echo", but also to sharpen himself and make himself stronger.

"If you can persevere after listening to our story..." The adventurer sighed who spoke, recounted what he had seen and heard a few days ago.

…………

When Zhong Ye returned to the temporary residence, he found the woman leaning against the door frame, her head little by little.

Hearing the footsteps, she hurriedly stood up and said hello in a low voice: "Sir, you're back..."

Zhong Ye nods, bypassing her and pushing the door into the room, but didn't 't expect she actually followed in.

Looking back in doubt, "What are you doing following up?"

"Ah?" "Sir, you don't need to..."

Zhong Ye slightly startled, sighing and shaking his head, "No need, go to rest early, I might get up early tomorrow."

With that, he let the woman out and closed the door.

…the damn time.
