White Dragon Lord

Chapter 253: The Journey of the Viscount Second Son (Part 2)

At night, Xuetaocheng.

The two dream-seeking teenagers were hit **** the first day they came to the land of their dreams.

That is-they may be sleeping on the street tonight~.

Edie Campbell was carrying a baggage, leaning on the white wall with a look of lovelessness.

Beside him is a brightly lit wooden door. The house is very lively. There are human mercenaries screaming and drinking, there are also the peculiar wolf howling of jackals, and even the thunderous laughter of ogres. At the same time , There is also a mixed aroma of ale and food.

The mixed scent penetrated Edie's nose, and the noble young master felt a little hungry.

But when he thought that he might be sleeping on the road tonight like a homeless migrant, he was in no mood to eat. Although he was only the second son of Viscount Campbell, he was also a good food and clothing since he was a child, so he had suffered such grievances.

At this time, Edie's businessman friend walked out of the door with a downcast face.

"It's full here too."

Edie felt that the world was full of malice, but as expected, he stood upright on the wall with both hands, looking anxiously at the bright moon rising in the east.

"Let's go, let's look for it again, there must be some empty rooms."

The merchant Milne wailed and wailed.

"This is already the eighth one, go to you, I can't walk anymore."

Edie's face is serious and serious.

"Trust me, Milne, it's no more than nine."

Milne hammered the wall aside indignantly.

"It's no more than three! My friend! You have said that since the third time! The result is three, four, five, six, seven, and eight all the same."

Edie's face collapsed in an instant.

"Then what do you say? Is it possible that we really have to sleep on the street? It's winter now~!"

"Not as bad as you think."

Milne shook his head and pointed sideways to the bench by the street.

"We can sleep on the benches. I checked when we came. The benches here are installed for no more than two months. They are cleaned every day and they are very clean. We can spread clothes and cover our faces for one night. "

As soon as the words fell, two human beings dressed as long-distance travelers walked past them quickly and took the lead in occupying the two benches on the side of the road.

Edie looked at the two of his kind who had taken out their clothes and spread them on the bench, shrugged, looking at the companion whose mouth twitched in a complicated mood.

"Let's go, looking for a tavern. If there is still no room available, let's find a bench."

"Well, the last one."

Milne felt a little tired and moved weakly.

Gululu~.

Edie glanced at the belly of his businessman friend. Milne was just an ordinary person, without the physical strength of himself as a mid-level warrior.

"Let's eat something here first."

After speaking, Edie walked to the tavern first, and Milne quickly followed.

Before entering the door, Milne looked up at the wooden planks hanging on the tavern door. On the wooden planks were painted an abstract jackal man and a wine glass, as well as a few squiggly characters.

After the lights in the tavern, Milne said these characters.

"Wild wolf and wine."

Milne muttered.

"Sooner or later I will have my own tavern in Xuetao City."

The son of the wealthy businessman was full of resentment towards the tavern at this time.

After Edie stepped over the threshold of the tavern and entered the noisy house, he saw a mahogany bar at first glance. Behind the bar stood a saucy jackal wearing a red checkered vest.

That's right, it's Sao Bao.

If it’s just a red vest, then Edie wouldn’t feel that this jackal was slapped, in addition to the sulky vest, this gray furry jackal had only a bunch of red hair on top of his head, and his ears were still alive. Each wears three golden rings.

The rude laughter of the mercenaries and monsters made the pampered noble young master frown, and he said loudly.

"Boss, bring us..."

Before Edie could finish speaking, the red-haired jackal interrupted him.

"No, the room is full early."

Obviously, the jackals regard Edie, who is carrying a burden, as a lodging passenger. Since the opening of the route, there have been too many humans like this.

Edie was a little embarrassed, not because of the misunderstanding of the jackal, but his misunderstanding. The voice of the jackal was a female voice.

This jackal is actually a female!

After speaking, the female jackal continued to wipe the oak wine glass in her hand, and dried Edie at the door.

Milne's voice sounded behind Edie, resolving the embarrassment.

"Ahem, madam, we just want something to eat."

"That's it."

Only then did the Jackal Boss raise her head, and she had an impression of Milne who had been here once.

"We have fresh sea fish and mussel shells. Of course, if you are not used to seafood, I also have beef and mutton, but the price is a little bit higher."

In order to avoid conflicts during the checkout, the boss lady of the Jackal took the lead to speak clearly.

It's just that Edie looked at the smile of the jackal boss wife, and she felt similar to the profiteer around her.

Businessman--Milne didn't know the "slander" in his friend's heart. He rolled his eyes secretly looking at the gap between the jackal boss's thumb and index finger.

Is that a little bit? ! It is several times more expensive, okay!

The overseas archipelago is rich in seafood, so the price is cheap, but the number of cattle and sheep is scarce, and the price is several times higher than that of the mainland. Even Milne, the son of a wealthy businessman, feels a little distressed to eat.

"No, we are tired of beef and mutton. Here is a grilled sea fish and a plate of braised fresh scallops."

Milne added, looking at the Great Stomach Warrior on the side.

"Twenty more mud turtle eggs, ten steamed buns, and two glasses of ale. Let's just do it for now, and add more if you don't have enough."

Milne ordered the dishes skillfully, and every time he negotiated with the tavern owner, he was responsible for the negotiation. In the course of the negotiations, the shrewd businessman collected a lot of useful information.

For example, the prices of overseas islands, the location of other taverns...

After ordering the food, the two looked into the tavern.

There happened to be an empty table in the corner of the pub, and the two passed through other guests who were joking and came to sit down at the empty table.

Milne put the baggage on the wooden bench, hammering his aching thigh, while Edie looked at the guests at the other tables.

Among these guests, there are not many humans, most of them are monsters such as jackals and murlocs, and there is even an ogre who is holding a wine barrel and drinking on his back.

While waiting for the food, Edie carefully observed the ogre sitting taller than he stood. To deal with these brutal guys, at least five mid-level fighters or one high-level fighter were needed. There is a possibility that the gutter may capsize.

However, Edie was not scared either. Although he had not seen many ogres along the way, there were not too many ogres.

Not long after, the murloc waiter brought the dishes over with the tray.

At this moment, sitting on the solid wood stool, the ogre with a headache and drinking found that the wine barrel was no longer flowing out, so he shook the wine barrel, and then realized that there was no wine, and smashed the empty wine barrel in his hand on the table.

Boom!

A loud noise suppressed all the sounds in the tavern, and the scene fell silent. Milne wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and picked up the spoon that had fallen to the ground.

But the ogre didn't notice the strangeness around it. It wiped out the wine stains on the corners of its mouth and chin with its big hands like a grinding disc, and shouted.

"Little Matchmaker! One more bucket! Hiccup~!"

"Hawk! You **** bastard! What a shout! Frighten my old lady!"

Although the jackal proprietress screamed fiercely, she smiled and asked the kobold bartender to deliver the wine.

Ogre Hawk took over the barrel and continued to swig. The frightened drinker did not dare to trouble an ogre.

Edie opened a clam shell, sucked the delicious clam meat into his mouth, took another sip of ale, and pressed down his heart that was beating violently with fright, and chose patience like other guests.

Afterwards, the two ate their own dinner.

Soon, the bustling atmosphere was restored again in the tavern.

The two of them ate and listened to the conversations of other guests. The tavern was a mixed bag of people, and there were all kinds of people, and they spoke truth after drinking, which is a good place to gather information.

A human mercenary was flushed with drinking, and said mysteriously to his surrounding companions.

"Have you heard? The Forgotten Adventure Group discovered an undersea ruin in Stormwind Bay!"

Human Mercenary B looked disappointed.

"Hey, why am I still thinking about this? I knew the news about you a day ago."

Although Human Mercenary B was disdainful, the corners of his mouth curled up quietly, obviously feeling very proud of his news being one step ahead of others.

"However, most people in the Forgotten Adventure Group can't enter the water, they can only stare at the ruins, hahaha."

Human mercenary C took a sip of ale.

"Hey~, it's a pity that the ruins are on the bottom of the sea. Even if we rush over, we can't even drink the soup."

The murloc's eyes on the side table lit up, obviously having an idea, and the human businessman on the other table grinned and said.

"If you really plan to go to the sea to make a fortune, you can buy underwater breathing potions. There is a master alchemist in our store. As long as you can afford it, hehehe..."

Another mercenary patted the table.

"Come on, Ma Di, your little broken shop, but also the master alchemist, I think it is an alchemy apprentice who was expelled from the academy, hahaha."

Everyone burst into laughter, and the businessman Ma Di, who was exposed to the old bottom, was not annoyed. Instead, he took the opportunity to stand up and solicit business.

"Everyone, everybody, I'm the owner of the Fandora Alchemy Shop in the White Shark District——Madi, everyone can come to me if they need it, and I will rush to this wonderful encounter today. It’s the first time I’ve come to me. I’ll give everyone a 10% discount for shopping in the store."

"Oh! Madi, you bastard! For the sake of new friends, we have thrown our old friends into the pit, you must give us an explanation today!"

"Yes, yes! Give us an explanation!"

Everyone screamed, the businessman Ma Di couldn't stand it, and he quickly urged for mercy.

"Tomorrow, old friends are also 10% off!"

"Hahaha, to our generous boss Madi!"

"Yes, to Boss Madi!"

Seeing the mercenaries raising their glasses to toast, or celebrating the common victory, Milne shook his head, and admired the Maadi boss' methods at the same time.

Ma Di was not angry when he was exposed. Instead, he thought of his own business. This vision, or the thick-skinned skin, made the young Milne feel very admired.

This is one of them.

Second, Madi succeeded in attracting a wave of new customers for him. As for the old customers who feel that he is getting a 10% discount, and taking advantage of it, have they really picked up the advantage?

The answer is of course yes, but this cheap is not as big as they thought. Maadi said that there will only be a discount tomorrow. If mercenaries don't have a mission, they rarely buy expensive alchemy items.

Therefore, Madi’s 10% discount promised that the loss of profit was not much. In addition, this action made Madi’s image in the hearts of the mercenaries instant bonus points. If the mercenaries in the future need alchemical items, the first one will think of this " "Generous" Madi boss.

Even if the mercenaries have a task, and they ran to buy alchemy items tomorrow, Ma Di is not a loss. The initial cost of a store is the most. At this time Ma Di is not well-off, and he may still be burdened with a loan. The mercenary bought the item and Madi returned the funds.

This shows that Ma Di will definitely be a successful businessman.

Milne was holding a wine glass and walked to the wine table of this colleague, intending to get acquainted.

A successful businessman is inseparable from excellent contacts.

Edie's focus is obviously different from that of his business friends, he pays more attention to the news of the ruins.

But he is not one of those reckless mercenaries. He thinks he might really make a fortune in the ruins. Edie has received aristocratic education. He can always see through the situation. On the way he came, he heard the name of the Forgotten Adventures many times. .

Such an adventure group with an official background must be able to contact the murloc seniors. When these idiots who have heard the news and bought a large number of underwater breathing medicines ran over, how would they compete with the murloc masters underwater?

The final result is very likely to be lost.

But this news is not without value to Yidi. There must be senior officials of the Forgotten Adventure Group around the ruins. Such a powerful official adventure group is exactly what Yidi, who has just arrived, is eager to join.

Edie's eyes were shining, thinking about whether to buy some water breathing potions, head to the ruins of Stormwind Bay, and perform well in front of the senior leaders of the Forgotten Adventure Group, and strive to get the appreciation of the senior leaders of the Adventure Group and join the Forgotten Adventure Group.

It's a world of difference between taking the initiative to join and receiving an invitation to join.

For a meal, the two ate very satisfied. They received a lot of information. Just as they were about to get up to check out, the bar counter of the tavern erupted with a sound of a river lion..., a wolf roar.

"What? Not enough money?! Hawke! You **** wanting to go wrong?!"

When the two heard it, they understood what was going on.

Ogre-Hawk has drunk a lot, and he doesn't have enough money to check out.

But it didn't matter to them, the two got up and walked to the bar.

Ogre-Hawk was about to argue with the boss of the jackal, but the boss of the jackal waved impatiently, interrupting the ogre to continue speaking, and it spoke to the two outsiders who were full of food~www.readwn .com~ Two guests from afar, I remember you don’t seem to have a place to live yet, do you? "

"Oh~, yes."

Edie was taken aback for a moment, and then surprised.

"Are there any rooms available?"

"No."

The jackal proprietress spread her hands.

Edie: "..."

"However, I have a way."

The jackal proprietress pointed at the drunken ogre next to them.

"This guy Hawke lives nearby, and his house happens to have a vacant room. If you can pay for it, I think it will be happy to take you in, right? Hawke!"

The drunk ogre-Hawke nodded.

"Yes! There is a guest room in my house."

Letting two people live for one night will not lose a piece of meat, but can save a lot of money for alcohol, which is a fool.

The two looked at each other.

...

Under the bright moonlight, on the white streets of Xuetaocheng.

Edie and Milne, a pair of homeless travelers, followed behind the ogre Hawke. Hawke's huge volume obscured the moonlight, and the shadows engulfed them.

Milne felt like a dream at the moment, he leaned to his companion's ear and said softly.

"So, we are going to board with an ogre?!"

Edie nodded stubbornly, and they agreed to the suggestion of the gnoll boss wife to help the ogre Hawker make up the money.

As for the reason for agreement, both Edie and Milne already knew the fact that the monsters in the overseas islands never eat intelligent creatures.

But even so, the two still feel nervous about this moment.

Humans are boarding at the ogre house!

The businessman-Milne covered his face.

OMG! This world is crazy!
