Chapter 214 A city of more than 100,000 people, Merkmaar (4 more!)
Merkmaar is a city in the Duchy of Bernard Marr.
Located in the southwestern region of the entire principality.
There are more than 100,000 residents living in Merkmaar.
It can be said to be quite a large city.
It is also the X Church, the key control area.
Most of the clergy there are valiant warriors.
and……
And the Adventurers Guild.
"Adventurers Guild?" Xu Fan became a little interested in this so-called Adventurers Guild after listening to Ryan's introduction to Merkmaar.
Of course……
The population base of more than 100,000 people can be said to be a very exaggerated figure within the territory of the Principality.
But if it is compared with the Yan Kingdom on the Blue Star.
That's a little tricky.
It was just an ordinary town in the Yan Kingdom, with hundreds of thousands of people gathered.
In order to solve the housing problem of these people.
Buildings are getting higher and higher.
Dozens of high-rises are emerging one after another.
"Yes, you can understand it as a kind of mercenary, X Church will regularly release some tasks."
"These adventurers can choose to accept these tasks according to their own strength."
"After successful completion, you will get a certain reward."
"Because Merkmaar is located on the edge of the principality, it is often harassed by thieves and beasts."
"At this time, it's time for the adventurer to appear."
Lane explained.
Logically speaking, crusade against thieves and the work of beasts should be the responsibility of the X Church.
It's just that the Principality of Bernard Mare has always had no shortage of brave loners.
Even if no one asks them.
They will also use their sense of justice to deal with those beasts and wicked people.
"Church X also saw the psychology of these people, so they established a guild for them and called them adventurers."
"And the friends I'm talking about are adventurers living in Merkmaar."
The thought of seeing these friends brought excitement on Ryan's face.
It is not difficult to see that he has an excellent relationship with these friends of his.
A group of people traveled through the desert.
Xu Fan and Ryan were at the front of the team.
In the middle is the square formed by the two-legged sheep girl, and Carlotta.
Xia Yi and the female snow wolf were at the back.
But in fact, Xu Fan spread out the domineering look, and he could sense the breath of life within a hundred meters around him.
In addition, the sight of the desert area is very wide.
Basically no problem.
As for those beasts hidden under the sand.
After feeling the powerful aura of the female snow wolf, they avoided them one after another.
Xu Fan nodded slightly, listening to Ryan tell about his friendship with these adventurers.
"I met them on an investigative mission."
"The captain's name is Yinlu. He is a very interesting uncle who is good at swordsmanship. There is also a young man about my age named Agen. He has excellent eyesight and can see the situation 50 meters away in the dark."
"There is also a girl named A Xue, who is two years younger than me and is proficient in archery."
While speaking, Ryan made a deliberate action to draw a bow.
"Within a hundred paces, the arrows will not be missed."
but……
When talking about these four members, Ryan showed a disgusted expression.
"It's that person, I don't like it at all."
"that person?"
"Well, her name is Lynn, she's a magician, always... Forget it, not to mention her." Ryan shook his head and chose to change the subject.
Speaking of Yinlu and others.
At the first meeting, he did not have a good impression of these people.
Because of the remuneration given by the X Church, many people came to be confused, resulting in more and more half-assed adventurers.
They are often incompetent, but often complacent.
Sitting in a tavern and exaggerating their experience is their favorite thing to do.
So when he met Yinlu and others during the investigation mission, Ryan directly persuaded them to go back.
But who knows, Yinlu not only did not obey his persuasion, but continued to go deep into the jungle.
"At that time, several villagers who went up the mountain to collect medicine disappeared, and the Knights of the Holy Light handed over the investigation task to me."
"And they were entrusted by a little girl to help find her father who went up the mountain but didn't go back."
"After investigation, it was found that all the villagers were brutally killed by a brown bear."
Lane paused for a moment.
The brown bear stood more than five meters tall.
Muscles are like rocks.
Even if it is his own sword, it is difficult to hurt the opponent.
Forced by the opponent's strength.
Ryan had to accept Yinlu's suggestion and deal with the big guy together.
In the end, A Xue shot the brown bear blind with one arrow.
Create opportunities for them to tackle the brown bears.
"I learned the truth after that. They didn't accept such a dangerous mission for reward, but wanted to find his father for that girl."
"Unfortunately, not every story can have a happy ending."
Speaking of this, Ryan's eyes couldn't help but dim, and a helpless smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
but……
Because of this experience, he gradually became familiar with Yinlu and others.
And the reason why these people will embark on the road of adventurers.
It's because of Ash.
"Her mother has a rare disease that can be treated with medication."
"But the price of medicinal materials is high."
"It's simply not affordable for the average family."
"That's why she takes on missions that are dangerous but can be exchanged for money."
"Yinlu heard her story in the tavern and formed a team with her."
"All the rewards will be used to buy medicinal materials."
After that, although Ryan returned to the capital of the Principality, the connection with them has never been broken.
So Ryan thought, if it was Yinlu and the others.
Will definitely help myself.
Provide clothing and a place to rest for more than two hundred two-legged sheep.
"He is indeed a very kind person." Xu Fan nodded slightly, feeling that Yinlu and the others were indeed trustworthy people.
Also a great adventurer.
would love to...
Meet these guys.
After leaving the oasis, Xu Fan and his party were not far from the Merkmaar area.
If not to take into account the physical strength of the two-legged sheep.
In half a day at most, Xu Fan will be able to reach Merkmaar.
"Okay, let's take a rest here first." Ryan suddenly stopped, and then made a gesture to the two-legged sheep girls.
Although the sky has begun to get dark, there is still some time before it becomes dark.
This time swagger into the city.
It will definitely attract the attention of Church X In order to avoid unnecessary battles, Ryan felt that it was better to let the two-legged sheep rest first.
It is better to go to Merkmaer by yourself, find Yinlu to gather clothes, come back to disguise their identities, and then enter the Merkmaer area.
Xu Fan felt that there was no problem with Lane's plan.
Besides, after walking for a day, everyone was very hungry.
Xu Fan simply took out all the food in the marching bag and shared it with the two-legged sheep.
but……
Just when Ryan was about to take the first step, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
Hands drooping naturally, walking aimlessly.
The whole person gives a feeling of unease.
Like the walking dead!
