The Troublesome Hero Among the Heroes

There is no road in the mountains. If there are more people walking, it becomes a road.

If Charles went forward several hundred meters yesterday afternoon, he would find his way to Granada.

There were some small traps by the roadside that they set up on the way, but today there was nothing to gain, only a pheasant was caught.

On the way, Charles couldn't help but ask Huntington: "The herbs you gather are all poisonous. Is this okay?"

Huntington was stunned. Click, and then just silently shook the head.

Charles can’t say anything when he sees it. What Huntington uses is an uncommon fight poison with poison herbal medicine, which is often used instead of antibiotics to kill pathogenic bacteria in patients.

In terms of antibiotics, Fleming’s research in Xueling Village had been listed as top secret by the Spirit King Court. Now Charles has no way of knowing the progress of the research.

The patient who takes these herbs is competing with the pathogenic bacteria in the body. Whoever is dead depends on whether the patient can kill the pathogenic bacteria before dying.

Moreover, this therapy needs to supplement the patient with sufficient nutrition, but just looking at Huntington’s patched clothes does not seem to be able to provide enough food for the patient.

Just now he discussed with the little girl how much money he could exchange for the extra prey.

Charles asked Huntington again: "Is the sick person your family?"

Huntington was silently nodded.

Charles sighed, and then the bunch of fish "grapes" on his hand hung on Huntington's back basket.

Although the maid elder sister had wiped out all the money that Charles had rewarded by Sophia while mopping the oil, Charles, who knew that eggs could not be put in a basket, had made some preparations early in the morning.

Not to mention that when he first discovered that he was poisoned, he used teleportation to transfer the necklace with the storage ring to a depth of half a meter underground to hide it. He was still in the knife box, throwing knife bag and backpack. Some spare money was scattered in the room.

This string of fish is regarded as Huntington’s reward for bringing himself to the city. Charles is not paying attention to this little money at present.

The adventurer’s world relies on strength to eat. A powerful adventurer who hunts fierce devil beasts can get high rewards, while Huntington can only collect fruits and catch some hares and pheasants. The new breed of prey can only ensure a living.

Huntington and the little girl beside him looked at Charles in surprise, and then the little girl quickly took down the bunch of fish "grapes" and gave them back to Charles.

Huntington said: "Thank you for your kindness, we have no money to pay the fishing tax."

Charles froze for a moment, and he didn't even collect the tax from the leader here. The method is that whoever takes the fish into the city or passes the tax card will be taxed. If the fish is not paid, it is a scam to give the fish to others.

Even if someone reveals the identity of count, he can only reduce taxes, unless the two parties have signed a tax exemption agreement.

Charles can only enter the city with a fish by himself.

They spent more than an hour climbing over a small mountain, and then they came to a big road.

There are a lot of pedestrians on the road, most of them look like sturdy adventurers.

Seeing these people rushing forward, I asked Huntington under curiosity: "Why are so many people going there today?"

Replied: "The city of Granada will hold a tournament at the end of June every three years. These people are all here to compete or watch the game."

Charles thought about nodded, and was considering whether to make money. A little bonus or something.

This kind of competition mainly focuses on martial skill, and the equipment and armor are provided by the organizer.

Alfe used to brag with Charles and Mira that he won a tournament championship when he was 18 years old.

The city of Granada is not small in scale. It is a direct territory of the royal family of Messeta, and it is a Fiefdom noble Genil count from Fiefdom in the vicinity who manages the city.

Charles doesn't understand what Juan thinks, so he trusts the Genil count to such a degree, he is not afraid that he will rebel.

However, Genil count is still a bit level in city management. At this time, there are a lot of people and cars entering and leaving the city gate, so the city gate surrounded a large area with a wooden wall, and the wooden wall looked like The high-speed toll gate has opened several inspection and tax collection channels.

Huntington and the others went to the local people's channel, Charles could only obediently and honestly line up at the foreign adventurer channel.

Charles soon discovered that the adventurers around him were looking at him with foolish eyes.

He knew immediately why this happened.

"Does the fish pay taxes according to the rules?" Charles asked dumbfoundedly to the poker-faced tax officer in front of him. At first, he thought he was paying taxes by weight like other places.

The tax officer is a menopausal aunt. She holds a writing board and parchment for records in her hand. She wears a tax that has no pockets, tight neckline and sleeves, and no buttons on top. Officer uniform.

I don’t know who invented the tax officer’s uniform, which means that they don’t hide the taxes when they collect taxes.

The tax official's aunt glanced at Charles and said, "This is the first time? Then you have eaten the fish and I have not seen it."

Charles shook the head helplessly. , He put the bunch of fish into the tax money basket amidst the laughter of the adventurers behind him, then put the weapons on his body on the scales like the adventurers who entered the city before, and said: "Then I will use them to pay the weapon import tax."

At the same time, he in the heart complains about the wonders of the city’s tax system. The weapon enters the city by collecting the weapon import tax based on weight. This is the first time I have seen it.

Fortunately, real goods are allowed to deduct taxes. The tax official's aunt glanced at the weight on the scale and recorded a sum on the parchment, and then waved Charles to get off.

Of course, these taxes in kind will not be put in the warehouse. There are already people waiting to buy things they are interested in with money. There are also people who specialize in buying food. They are all people in pubs and restaurants.

At this time, the day of the tournament is approaching. There are many people on the street and many soldiers on patrol. The merchants who follow will naturally not miss the opportunity to make money.

In this way, Charles would be miserable. The high-, middle- and low-end hotels were full, and even the stables were full.

Charles originally planned to stay in the Forge Temple church. Because of his relationship with the Pope, the church would not refuse. As a result, it was filled with dwarves who came to do business from all directions. NS.

There are private houses in the residential area that are willing to accept adventurers, but Charles discovered after a round of shopping and found that the "owners" of these "residential houses" are either big elder sisters or soft skin and tender meat. My little brother, he had to run away.

Just when Charles was thinking about setting up a tent outside the city, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him at the same time: "Hey, Charles, why are you here?"
