Chapter 279 Lookout Point City
If it were placed in a legendary story.
Lindsay's journey across the world as she sets out alone is definitely worthy of some space.
But it is.
Even if Lindsay has achieved such a miracle as killing the dragon beast.
But when he was about to enter Cape Lookout City under the leadership of Han Sike, he was faced with a major problem - money.
Lindsay looked at her luggage.
There are 127 rough copper coins and 2 rough silver coins.
One silver coin can be exchanged for 20 copper coins. Depending on the region and social conditions, there will be very drastic changes.
If you do the conversion...
A copper coin can buy a small loaf of bread to several loaves, converted into modern currency...
Lindsay was quickly stunned by herself.
In Anweil Village, a child like him had almost no right to spend money; in the Death Church on the hidden border, due to the local closed environment and actual conditions, at most he could only help Hongyue purchase some supplies.
"So, how much money do I have?"
Han Sike noticed Lindsay's confusion, and his eyes became subtle:
"Lindsay, you don't have any money?"
Lindsay's answer stumbled a bit at first.
But he changed his mind from an adventurer back to a normal person, and soon came up with an idea:
"I... must be the kind of person who has no money. But the situation is not too bad. I have some things in my bag that I can sell for property."
Han Sike didn't see any luggage on Lindsay.
He thought Lindsay was quite embarrassed, so he took the initiative and suggested:
"I can lend you some money."
"However, Lindsay, self-reliance is something everyone has to bear. I will only lend you the first month's accommodation and food expenses. During this period, you have to think of a way to take care of yourself."
Lindsay quickly shook her head:
"I really brought a lot of things with me, and life is definitely not a problem. As for housing... By the way! I know a little bit about carpentry, and I can build a house as long as there is a piece of land. In Cape Lookout City, you can build your own house ?"
Seeing Lindsay's firm attitude, Han Sike nodded and replied:
"Of course, but I still need to report the construction land to you."
"You are an awakened person and enjoy privileges in this regard. If you only use it for living, you don't have to pay the cost of buying the land."
The two continued to move forward on horseback, and the road gradually appeared in the forest.
As you walk in with the sound of horse hooves, the first thing you see is a tall tree wall. Materials were sourced locally from the forest and over the years have almost blended in with the lush surrounding vegetation.
Looking from afar, it is a green city hidden in the forest!
At the entrance under the city wall, some humans carrying baskets and bows and arrows were lined up in an orderly manner. They were carrying either fresh berries or captured prey, waiting to enter the city.
Looking towards other directions in the forest, people were returning one after another.
The disturbance in the forest prevents them from working outside.
But Lindsay's attention was drawn to another place entirely.
In addition to humans, there is a short humanoid creature covered with white hair at the city gate.
They look like rabbits, wear clothing, and even have tools on their hands.
Many humans are still talking to them!
"What species is this?"
Lindsay's eyes widened.
Human beings are the absolute leaders of this universe.
But in addition, there are also other intelligent species that are different from humans, and Lindsay has also seen records in books.
But I saw this kind of creature living among humans with my own eyes.
It was really Lindsay’s first experience!
Hansike explained to Lindsay:
"This is the Chaluo tribe."
"Their ancestors were saved by wizards in a huge crisis, so they have a high opinion of humans. But you'd better not bring up topics about body size with them, they are very sensitive to this."
Lindsay nodded in understanding.
As a law knight, Han Sike plays an important role in the city.
When the horse-riding Law Knight appeared at the gate of Cape Lookout City, most people looked at him with admiration.
The team lined up and even took the initiative to avoid the road to let the Law Knights pass first.
Lindsay reacted immediately.
The Knights of the Law, or the Awakened, enjoy privileges...
Han Sike had explained it to him before when discussing where to live and buy land.
But look at the eyes of these ordinary people and the rabbit-like Chaluo people.
Regardless of other places, or other awakened people.
At least the residents of Cape Lookout City are not jealous of the privileges of the Law Knights, but respect them from the bottom of their hearts.
If the law is recognized.
Then those who protect the law will naturally enjoy this honor.
Lindsay mused.
As Han Sike enters the city, a new architectural style from the forest comes to mind.
The city of Cape Lookout is built in the forest.
Almost all buildings here are made of wood.
Some houses also have intricate patterns engraved on their surfaces as carvings, showing the craftsmen's skill and the owner's aesthetic preferences, or indicating the building's actual function.
These buildings are staggered in height and blend into the surrounding natural landscape.
Neat wooden bridges and walkways connect the entire city as a whole, and the sound of wind and bird song echo around.
There is harmony in the air.
And it’s different from being shrouded in huge trees that block the sky and sun in the forest.
In the area where the city is built, tall trees are cut down in an orderly manner, and landscape trees are easy to preserve.
The sun shines down smoothly.
Compared with the scenery in the woods before, the city seems particularly bright, and even people's mood will unconsciously become better.
The city hall is located in the southeast corner of Lookout Point City.
The Law Knight still enjoys privileges here. He took Lindsay directly into it and started to register the land.
A surprised voice sounded in the hall:
"Lord Hansike!"
The Law Knight replied softly:
"I will do a land registration here, you just do your own things."
The literacy rate of people in this universe is quite low, and the staff of the city hall is very busy.
Hansike came to the front desk with ease.
He picked up a piece of turf paper and helped Lindsay write.
"Name, Lindsay... By the way, I haven't asked you about your awakened occupation?"
"Uh... game player."
"Game player? This is quite rare." The Law Knight nodded slightly, "How old are you?"
"1... What month is it now?"
"Today is March 18th."
"Then I am 19 years old now."
"So young? When I was your age, I was still patrolling the streets of the City of Law."
"By the way, Lindsay, do you have a wife?"
"I'm still single."
"Such a young awakener is very popular, you kid should be ready."
When registering the information, Hansike was very talkative.
But Lindsay managed it.
The two took the drafted deed and went to the land owned by Lindsay.
Because of the wizard's previous instructions, Hansike took the initiative to place Lindsay's residence near the wizard's residence.
This is the northeast of Lookout City.
A piece of land was vacant next to a small bridge, and there was a well not far away, making life quite convenient.
Looking up, you can see a huge tree, and a watchtower is built spirally around the trunk.
Lindsay is looking at the scenery in front of him.
In the street in the distance, a cargo carriage is coming towards this side.
Then, a figure with long purple hair jumped off the car and first performed a merchant's etiquette to Hansike:
"Lord Hansike, good afternoon."
Hansike raised his eyebrows:
"Eline?"
"I remember you are not active in the commercial street in the south?"
The girl showed a shrewd smile:
"The market prospects are not good recently, so I plan to adjust my business and move to another place to live as a rest."
As she answered, the girl's eyes drifted to Lindsay on the side.
She took two steps to Lindsay, opened her left hand outward, covered her chest with her right hand, bent down gently, and showed her beautiful body curves:
"Of course, the actual reason is still you, sir."
"Lord Quite thinks that Mr. Lindsay should need some help, so let me buy a house here for the time being, so that I can contact you at any time."
