"You are their leader?" The giant man in the lead seemed to think that Niwa was too thin, and there was a trace of disdain in his eyes, "Western Wind Tribe? There is only North Wind in this hellish place, where is West Wind?"
Niwa looked at him without giving in, "This is not the whole world, how do you know that there is no west wind blowing elsewhere?"
"It makes sense..." The giant man nodded, then pointed at the knights and asked, "Is this how little people are in your tribe?"
Niwa shook his head and said, "We are just an exploration team, we got lost here."
The giant man laughed, "You're not lying. A tribe can't only be young and strong, and you don't look like homeless wanderers whose homes have been destroyed. But we haven't heard that there are human tribes nearby, except for those insects who have taken refuge in other species. After all, Andreus' wolf cubs are everywhere... If you don't mind, please come to our tribe, and we will entertain you."
Seeing that the hostility temporarily receded from this person, Niwa also nodded and said, "Thank you for your generosity."
The two sides calmed down their hostility for a while, and the giant man began to order his men to pack up the wolf corpses and take back their weapons, which were the spears they used to attack the wolves before, and Niwa also walked back to the crowd on his side.
"That person just said 'Andreus'?" Yula's eyes showed obvious surprise, and she murmured almost to herself, "His pronunciation seems to be very similar to the Gumonde recorded in the clan, could it be ..."
Niwa nodded and said: "It is indeed possible. Both of you should have read my report on exploring the ruins of the Thousand Winds Temple two years ago, right? It's just that this time it's not like the last time... Take it easy, follow them, and then confirm .”
Among the people present, only Yura and Umber are captains, who have the authority to read Niwa's secret report two years ago, and the other Zephyr knights are still at a loss.
Amber couldn't help but shivered, not knowing whether it was from the cold or fear, Yula hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
In that room, the giant man led the crowd to take back the throwing spears, tied the killed giant wolf to a wooden stick and lifted it up, then led Niwa and his party back.
The giant man was very talkative, and he chatted happily with Niwa all the way.
Through this small chat, Niwa knew that this person was the eldest son of their tribal leader, and his name was Eric.Their tribe is the "Wall Guards", military aristocrats responsible for protecting the safety of the royal city. Their main duty is to clean up and mop up the wilderness around the royal city and maintain the safety of the "Wall of Sighs".
In order not to arouse suspicion, Niwa lied that he was called "Dan" and led his men to explore here from the far west.
Soon Eric led the crowd into a canyon.With the cover of the rock wall, the wind and snow here are much smaller, but the wind is more intense, making people blinded by the blowing.
The crowd marched hundreds of meters against the strong wind, and finally came to the edge of the so-called "Wall of Sighs".Seeing this "city wall", the Zephyr knights couldn't help opening their mouths, almost breaking their necks!
This is a wall made of extremely dense wind elements, stretching from the ground to the huge storm in the sky!
Chapter 190 Wind Dragon Ruins?Gale King Capital
The scene in front of me is very familiar to the elite West Wind knights who often go out to work!It's just that the broken wind wall they saw in the past is nothing compared to the miracle in front of them!
"Wind Dragon Ruins?!" Almost everyone shouted.
"What wind dragon ruins? This is my king's residence, Gale King Capital!" Eric said a little unhappy.
Niwa hurriedly explained: "Sorry, this place is somewhat similar to a relic in our hometown. Everyone mistakenly admitted it for a while, and did not intend to offend."
Suddenly, Eric reminded: "Don't talk nonsense after entering the city, my king Gu Ao, I don't know the same level as you, but my king's priests are not so easy to talk about."
"Yes, thanks for the reminder."
Not long after, everyone came to the front of the Wall of Sighs.
Niwa tried to sense the wall, and found that the wind element in it had been compressed to the extreme, and could not accommodate the existence of other elements at all.
In other words, except for the wind element, no matter what kind of elemental power is used to bombard the wall, those elemental particles will be bounced off the moment they touch the wall, and they will not be able to affect it at all!
As for the competition of wind element power... who would dare to play with wind element in front of the Gale Demon God?
This so-called "Wall of Sighs" is simply an iron wall!
Eric came to the Wall of Sighs, took out a coat of arms and held it up high.The coat of arms resonated with the wind wall, and soon a haughty voice came from inside the wall.
"Eric, who are they?"
Eric replied respectfully: "Master Storm Priest, this is a homeless person we rescued during our patrol, and I hope to be protected by my king."
The haughty voice said without any hesitation, "My king is kind and willing to protect all human beings, but after entering the Wall of Sighs, you are not allowed to leave without my king's permission. Are you willing to abide by it?"
The Zephyr knights all looked at Niwa.Niyu nodded slightly, and then raised his voice: "Follow the king's will!"
"In that case, come in!"
The haughty voice ceased to sound, and a whirlpool-like door appeared on the wind wall.
Under the leadership of Eric, the crowd walked tens of meters against the strong wind that could almost blow people away, and finally passed through the Wall of Sighs and entered a windless area.
As soon as they passed through this wind wall, everyone felt the temperature rise rapidly, as if they ran from the mountainside of Longji Snow Mountain to the Blue Wind Highland.The almost frozen West Wind knights breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got the mood to look around.
Inside the Wall of Sighs is a huge valley, the land is flat, the houses look like houses, and the breeze is gentle, but there is a huge storm eye above the head, and the blue sky, white clouds, sun, moon and stars are completely invisible, making it impossible to judge the time.
"How do you judge the time? Is it day or night?" Yula couldn't help asking.
"During the day, the priests will use magic mirrors to bring in sunlight from the king's tower to provide light for the crops, so it is night now." Eric replied.
"What time is it at night?"
"We don't care about time. Anyway, when it gets dark, most people will choose to go home and rest. Fuel is expensive, but it can't be wasted on lighting, and spar lamps can only be collected by wall guards who need to go out."
Not long after, Eric, holding the spar lamp high, led the crowd to a village.
Most of the buildings in this village are made of stone, low and strong, only a few barn and sundries storehouses use wooden structures and thatched roofs.
Niwa observed the traces on these buildings, and asked casually, "Do you often have strong winds here?"
"Not very often, after all, the king rarely inspects border tribes like us. If you enter the center of the king's city, you will understand what is called Gale City." Eric grinned.
At this moment, several warriors also dressed in leather came out of the bushes on the side of the road, and the leader asked loudly, "Is that Eric?"
"it's me!"
Eric held up the spar lamp and approached him, and hugged him lightly, "Paul, are you on duty today?"
"Hmm. Is this... another outsider?"
"Yeah...huh?"
Eric suddenly remembered something, raised the spar lamp and moved closer to Niwa and the others, taking a closer look at the armor and coat of arms on Yura and Umber.
In the snowstorm earlier, everyone was wrapped tightly in thick cloth cloaks, and it was only now that these details were revealed.
"You...do you still have a group of companions?"
Everyone was still in a daze, but Niwa was the first to react, and quickly asked, "Are there two of them wearing similar coats of arms?"
"Well, that's right."
"Among them is a blonde girl about her height, wearing a strange costume, accompanied by a flying pet?"
"The previous ones are correct, but there are no flying pets."
Having said that, everyone understands.It turns out that the missing team has also come here!
"They are indeed our companions, and they got separated from us." Niwa said seriously.
"We rescued them from outside the wall two days ago... Just in time, I'll take you to meet them."
In this way, under the leadership of Eric, Niwa and others found the missing team in the big house in the corner of the village. There were 25 people, and only a few people were slightly injured.
Meeting old friends in a foreign land, one can imagine how excited everyone was, even Heinz Lawrence looked at Yula with eager eyes.
Yula couldn't help but took two steps forward, stopped after seeing that Heinz was not injured, and complained in a low voice: "It's really troublesome, don't you know the consequences of your sudden disappearance? The Knights almost died. You will be treated as a prison break!"
Heinz looked a little older than two years ago, but his mental state recovered well, and his aristocratic demeanor was well maintained.
Hearing Yula's complaint, he snorted softly and said, "Nobles won't take back their freedom in a dishonorable way, either by defeating the enemy or paying a ransom. That little girl from the Gurnhild family doesn't even remember that. ?"
Yula hugged her chest and sneered, "It's all like this, and I'm still clinging to those messy dogmas."
Heinz stared back angrily, "Those are the bricks and tiles that shape the honor of nobles. If you can't abide by these etiquettes, how is it different from those humble commoners? Have you forgotten all the education you have received since childhood? Don't forget, you're a Lawrence too!"
Seeing the two staring at each other like fighting cocks, the crowd didn't know how to persuade them, but Eric scratched his head suddenly and interrupted: "Sorry, I didn't catch you just now. You said 'Lawrence'? This is your family's surname ?"
Heinz raised his chin slightly, "Yes, this is an ancient surname with a history of thousands of years."
"Uh... so powerful... After all, my surname is Lawrence too... Hehe, of course we are definitely not relatives..."
"What?!" Yura's voice suddenly became sharp.
Chapter 191 Lawrence the Waller
After some communication, Eric left the big room in a daze.
Afterwards, everyone who was told the truth by Niwa dislocated their jaws one after another.
Heinz was the worst, dislocated twice.
The first time was when I learned that everyone traveled through more than 2600 years for some reason, and ran to the ruins of the wind dragon before the establishment of New Mond, which is the site of the gale demon god Dekarapian.The second time was when they learned that Eric Lawrence, who saved them, was most likely his ancestor for an unknown number of generations.
After learning this, Niwa also deliberately looked at Eric carefully.
Not to mention, after taking off the heavy fur hat and sweeping the snow and beard from his beard and eyebrows, Eric's appearance is actually quite good.
The chisel-like facial lines, blue pupils, and long pale golden hair, the basic requirements can be scored at least 80 points, that is, the hair and beard are not taken care of, if you can call a reliable teacher Tony to help clean up, you probably won’t lose To Chris Hemsworth (Marvel Thor).
With such good genes, it is no wonder that a descendant with a supermodel body and face like Yula can be born.
From Eric's mouth, everyone learned some basic information about the capital of Gale Wind.
The lonely king of the tower, Dekarapian, the demon god of the gale, is a very lonely demon god, who plays autistic style. He basically never leaves his storm tower that goes straight to the sky, and only maintains the wall of sighs for a fixed period of time.
The Gale King is basically not allowed to enter and not to leave. The only people who can freely enter and exit the Wall of Sighs are the seven tribes responsible for guarding the border, that is, the tribes called "Wall Guards".These tribes need to go in and out of the Wall of Sighs from time to time to disperse the monsters and enemies approaching the capital, and to bring back logs to the capital for residents to use. Their status in the capital of Gale Wind is equivalent to military nobles.
Leaving the border area guarded by the wall guards and continuing to the center of the valley, you can see a large flat field.Most of the people of the High Tower King lived and multiplied in this area, and lived on agriculture.
Going further into the center of the valley is the urban area of Gale King Capital, which is the Central King City.Residents engaged in handicraft industries built settlements around the Storm Tower, and the buildings here are all made of solid granite to resist the strong wind erosion from the Storm Tower.
The storm priests who are responsible for assisting the lonely king of the tower to rule the people live in the area closest to the storm tower. They are the only human beings who are allowed to enter the storm tower. They are the bridge between ordinary people and gods, and their status is the most noble.
All in all, this is a rather primitive ruling structure, a four-level structure of priests-military nobles-urban handicraftsmen-peasants, and a circular habitat layout.
While everyone was discussing the current situation, Niwa found Ying, "You are the blond traveler who posted missing person notices everywhere? I heard that you have a flying pet, where is it?"
Ying didn't seem to be very good at chatting, so she thought for a while before answering: "Pimeng, she passed out."
"Huh? Can you explain it carefully?"
Ying showed a worried look, "We entered the forest, and Paimon suddenly said that she felt something was wrong and asked me to leave immediately, but I had a mission, so I didn't agree. Then we suddenly appeared in the ice and snow, and since then Paimon has been in a coma..."
"Can you take me to see her?"
"Ah."
After some inspections, Niwa confirmed that Paimon should be fine, as if he had fallen asleep.As for what caused this situation, he had some guesses, but he was not sure.
"In that case, with her included, all 26 missing persons have been found. Next, let us think about how to go back to Mond through 2600 years from here." Niwa smiled at Ying Stretching out his hand, he said, "By the way, my name is Niwa, and I am the current Mond Dongfeng Guardian."
Ying hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out her hand and shook him lightly, "I've heard of you."
"I believe your reputation will spread more widely than mine soon." Niwa said politely.
Ying tilted her head, looking puzzled.
----------
Silent all night.
Early the next morning, everyone found that the light outside the window gradually became brighter.When I went out to look, I saw that in the middle of the distant valley, the top of the storm tower was shining like the sun.
Niwa, who had seen the Dainichi Mikoto, did not react to this. After all, it was just sunlight reflected by a magic lens, and the technical content could not be compared with the completely artificial Dainichi Mikoto.But others were quite surprised by this, after all, there was nothing in Mond that could be called a man-made wonder except for the statue of the wind god.
Many old aristocratic reform-through-labor prisoners even muttered in private, why did the old Mond people start a rebellion against the lonely king of the tower?Compared with the current level of technology displayed in the capital of Gale King, Mond today can be said to be a step backward!
Soon after dawn, the handsome Eric came to the big house where everyone lived.
"The patriarch wants to see your leader." Eric looked around the crowd, "Can any of you speak for everyone?"
Niwa took the initiative to stand up, and Heinz just wanted to object when Yura pushed him back to his seat.
Eric nodded slightly upon seeing this, "Then please follow me."
Under the light of the morning, the grass and trees are still covered with dew, but the villagers of this village have already carried their farm tools and walked to the distant fields.
As wall guards, the Lawrence tribe lived a half-farming, half-hunting life. The wall guard squads could get prey from outside the wall from time to time, but the main source of food was the fields.
Niwa deliberately walked into the farmland beside the road to carefully check the growth of the crops, and concluded that the yield must not be as high as after 2600.
Under Eric's leadership, Niwa walked all the way into the center of the village.Judging from the number of visible houses and the number of laborers, there are about 3000 people living in this village belonging to the Lawrence tribe.
Niwa's heart moved slightly, and he asked tentatively, "Eric, how much land and population does the Lawrence tribe have?"
"Is this...the reclaimed land is about 3000 mu. I'm not very clear about the population, maybe [-] to [-] people?"
Niwa asked again: "How many people are there in the Gale King Capital?"
Eric shook his head and said, "I'm just the captain of the Wall Guard, so I don't know much about this issue. But since I became a Wall Guard, there have been at least two or three thousand human wanderers taken in by our tribe alone, right?"
