Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1051: Frostwind City

Arkham returned to the General's Mansion, and after returning from the Strana Bridge, he went to business first. Indeed, the team of knights who protected Austin were relieved of their duties in the Bear Armor Army. He did not neglect this matter because of Allen's departure. It's just that these people were incorporated into his mansion guard system later, the knight changed his identity, and everything else remained the same.

Enter the square and hand over the foal to the guards to take it away. Arkham walked into the main building alone, and turned to Austin's room. There was no accident, just stepped into the corridor, and heard the sound of falling things in the son's room, as well as the screams of several women. Arkham pushed away the room, and Austin was pushing a maid on a chair and rushing wildly. There were debris and fragments of furniture on the floor, and the two maids next to him were packing their things while covering their hands.

Seeing Arkham come in, Austin not only didn't stop, but his movements became more intense, and the maid who was originally quite pretty now had a distorted expression. Arkham walked over without saying a word, just stretched out his big hand and grabbed Austin's hair and threw it back forcefully. The ball-like Austin immediately fell a few meters away, knocked over a table, and didn't get up for a long time.

The general clapped his hands lightly, and said in a deep voice, "You all go out."

The two maids hurriedly helped up the companion who was unable to walk, and the three of them should not leave this room. After they left, Austin began to cry. His bruised cheeks hadn't faded away, and now there were fresh wounds. At first it was just sobbing, and gradually the fat man started crying like a child: "You hit me! You promised that mother would take care of me, but now, I was hurt by that white-haired boy. Instead of teaching him a lesson, you also hit me!"

"You know what! I'm saving you!" Arkham snorted coldly: "It's okay for others, but you shouldn't provoke him. If you know that a powerful earl is killed by him, I think you will I won't be so reckless to touch his woman."

Austin raised his head, tears and snot mixed together on his face, he still shouted: "What is the count of strength, you can kill as many as you want with your eyes closed!"

"Shut up! If you're not my son, I'll shave off the fat on your body inch by inch with just this sentence!" Arkham finally roared: "I told you earlier, you are in Moser It’s okay for Orli to mess around. After all, in this city, I can still say a few words to you. Even if you have no brains to mess with someone you can’t mess with, I will watch you and don’t mess with you. But when you go outside, you have to give me a little peace of mind. There are not many generals in the empire, but there are also many. Even Marshal Rodeck doesn’t allow his son to mess around outside, let alone you, I’m just a mere one General Zhenjiang. Of course, Rodke's son is much better than you, and he won't forget who he is when he sees a woman like you."

"Then what do you think I can do!" Austin howled: "I don't have your fighting talent, and that's all my achievements. Do you think I like this? But if I don't find something to do, I will go crazy Yeah! Every day I wake up, I hear people whispering behind my back. They'll say, look, that fat pig is General Arkham's son. Hey, the tiger father gave birth to a dog son,

No no no, a pig to be exact! a pig! "

Arkham sighed, knelt down and hugged Austin and said, "I never asked you to reach

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) I am the same height, even more than me. "

"I know, but others don't pay attention to it. Just like the white-haired boy on the Golden Bridge, I only see contempt in his eyes. There are many people like him!"

"Don't worry, no one can look down on my son. Neither can the Viscount, but in that situation, I can only do that. I hope you can understand my dear Austin." Arkham patted his son on the shoulder and narrowed his eyes. He narrowed his eyes and said, "As for that lord, don't worry. He gave us father and son so much embarrassment, and it's unjustifiable to have nothing in return."

Four days later, Allen saw Frostwind City.

This is the first ten-thousand-level city seen in the Northland. Frostwind City is adjacent to the Cold Ridge Mountains, and the city is built on the gentle slope at the foot of one of the mountains. Across a river meandering from the northwest highlands, you can see a farmland. Now is the important season of spring plowing. The farmers of Frostwind City led the river into the irrigated fields and planted new seedlings, making the farmland in front of Frostwind City full of greenery.

The gray and white city walls of Frostwind City are tall and short, one after another, unfolding continuously according to the mountain. The city has a long history. From a distance, you can see the ancient statues on the temples, altars and assembly squares scattered on the hillside. On the square at the top of Frostwind City, there is still an old poplar planted. It is said that the tree was planted by the pioneers of Frostwind City back then. Up to now, the aspen tree has become a symbol of the city.

Because it is close to the Coldridge Mountains, in winter, the icy wind will blow from the depths of the mountains, whizzing past Frostwind City. Here you can hear the sound of the north wind whistling all winter, which is also the origin of the name of Frostwind City. And it was the last city to enter the Coldridge Mountains, so it played an important role as a supply point.

Allen and the others came here in spring, and if they came across the winter snow, they would be able to see the white makeup of the buildings in the city. As for now, after the snow has been cleared, the buildings of this ancient city are seen from a distance as dark and light blocks of overlapping gray and black colors, which are far less stunning than those seen in winter.

Caravans pay taxes and enter the city.

After finding a hotel to stay in, Edward and Sean went to collect supplies for the caravan, while Fares hired a guide in the city. There are many branches of mountain paths in the Coldridge Mountains, and the large and small mountain paths form a complex network like a spider's web. Only those experienced guides in Frostwind City know which way to go to pass the mountains, which has also become a problem in the city. One of the characteristic industries.

As for Allen, he led Lucy and Regis to a prestigious tavern. The highland black goat, which is unique to Frostwind City, is a well-known delicacy. The goat is skinned and the meat is cooked with onions, black pepper, cooking wine and several other ingredients. It is a famous delicacy in Frostwind City. The tavern that Allen and the others walked into is famous for making goat meat.

A few people walked into the tavern, and the people in the tavern glanced at them, who were obviously outsiders, and didn't care. After all, people come and go in Frostwind City, and the residents of the city are used to seeing strangers. What's more, in the tavern, there are also a few tables that are obviously merchants from other places, which can be roughly distinguished from the clothing. They found a table near the window, and after Alan ordered mutton, wine and other side dishes, he said to Lucy and Adele: "I heard that the meat here is only delicious if it is caught by hand. You can eat it later." to try

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) Try. "

The two girls frowned, apparently this kind of rude eating was unique in their lives. Laura, however, had the expression that should have been on her face, and said: "You have too many processes in food processing. In our tribe, the prey caught from the mountains are all peeled and roasted meat, and then sprinkled with salt before eating. After being grilled and smoked by the fire, the roasted meat with a faint fragrance of wood is the most delicious."

Allen laughed: "The roast lamb here will probably suit your appetite. After drinking a few glasses of fine wine, everyone can die here tonight."

Regis snorted, "I want juice." Since the incident in Moser last time, the boy has already had a lot of shadows about alcohol, and now he doesn't drink it even if he is killed. Soon the food and wine were served, and the roast mutton ordered by Allen was indeed served on a large plate. The mutton was mixed with many spices, and it had an unusually seductive color under the light. To the relief of the two girls, Lucy, after years of continuous improvement, the tavern has finally prepared a few more cutlery for the guests to take care of those guests who cannot change their habits.

When a few people started to eat and drink, the door of the tavern opened again, and three men walked in. They all wore hooded cloaks that are commonly seen in business travelers, wrapping their bodies tightly. However, the three people under the cloak were a bit bloated, and they kept making metal knocking sounds as they walked. It is not difficult to speculate that they are all wearing armor under the cloak, and it is a relatively heavy type. This is relatively rare in caravans. As we all know, for the convenience of travel, caravan guards are basically equipped with light armor.

When they entered the door, they looked at Alan's table. Alan raised his head, and the first man nodded slightly, and walked to the corner of the tavern with the two behind.

Regis looked back at them and said, "These people have been following us for the first two days."

Allen nodded and said, "It's the beginning of spring, and there are many people traveling from south to north on the commercial road. Maybe they are just going north. Don't worry, Edward has asked people to keep an eye on them. If there is any change, I will immediately Know."

Regis then lowered his head and began to eat.

When they returned to the hotel in the evening, Fares brought a guide to meet Allen. The guide is not young and has gray hair, but he is full of energy. Most men in the north are physically strong, especially in places like Frostwind City. Although this old man is old, he can walk vigorously, so there is no need to worry about taking care of him on the way. When he saw Alan, he bowed and said, "Ian is willing to serve you, my lord."

Fares added beside him: "Papa Ian is one of the most experienced guides in the city. Papa has made hundreds of trips to and from the Coldridge Mountains."

"To be exact, it's 127 times. To me, every plant and tree in that mountain range is as familiar as my own back garden." Father Ian raised his head and said proudly.

Allen smiled, took out a money bag and put it in the old man's hand: "This is a deposit, and I will pay the rest of the money after I leave the mountains."

Ian weighed the money pouch with his hands, and then roughly estimated how much money was in it. Knowing that the deposit was about 20% higher than normal, he immediately had a good impression of Alan's straightforwardness and generosity. He patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me, my lord."

ps: Pay off the debt today and continue to explode!
