Chapter 204: Major Events in the Empire


On the ground of the beautiful Hot Springs Gate, stood six cylindrical towers that touched heaven, hundreds of meters in the air.


From where the tower was, however, Fei clearly sensed a kind of stronger magical fluctuation, as if there were several layers of waves gushing out endlessly. Its power was so powerful that it was no less than the magic element effect caused by the full escape of the Five Star Witch. It seemed like the existence of those towers was the reason for the abnormal fluctuation of magic elements.


"Is that the legendary Mage Tower?"


Fei immediately noticed that the six mage towers in the Hot Spring Gate were each located at each hexagon point, and he was already familiar with this kind of location, too, that clearly formed an incredible Magic Array division. It implicitly released a kind of strange transparent charm that trapped the Hot Springs Gate inside. However, the power of the enchantment was too weak to be noticed by most people; perhaps that was why, so far, the gigantic Magic Array still remained hidden.


"So ... the entire city is located in the giant Magic Array that has been built. Even the walls around it are part of it. After the invaders appear, the power of the mage tower, as well as all the mages in the city, can be used to me this Magic Array. After increasing the strength of the enchantment, it might be able to defend itself against those gallant warriors; or even to fight them back. ”


Fei gradually discovered many things.


He suddenly realized that the world was much more complicated than he expected. The fierce competition for survival as well as the accumulated history over thousands of years will only make this world even more fantastic. Fei was already startled by a single wall in the Hot Spring Gate, but it also made him happy with the perfect plan to reconstruct Chambord's defense.


Along with the laughter of Angela and Emma, the entire journey not only shocked Fei, but also opened her eyes.


The Hot Springs Gate was the economic and cultural center of the northern region of the empire. Its population was ten times larger than Chambord's.


As the day was nearing noon, more and more people from various industries such as merchants, artists, mercenaries, and trade caravans all appeared on the street. The crowd makes the street so crowded that you can hear all the sounds of peddling and talking right next to your ears.


Two girls jumped up and down, amazed by the bustling scenery they had never seen before and completely forgotten about the rest of the world. They could only buy the luxury items they saw. When it was around noon, they finally decided to take a break at a pub called the Ivy League. Now Fei realized that his storage ring was almost full.


The Ivy League is a popular pub among the lower classes at Hot Spring Gate. People from various backgrounds wanted to gather there, especially the busy mercenaries. Fei chose such a place with the aim of obtaining some useful clues from those who traveled widely.


Moreover, what surprised Fei even more was the food provided by the pub. This was the first time he had tasted such an incredible meal from another part of the world, not the flavorless food from Chambord. The feeling of being part of a cheerful and boisterous scene reminded Fei of his last life at university, hanging out with a few friends, grabbing as many beers as they wanted at a small, messy restaurant near the university, enjoy youthfulness and fearlessness .


Fei took a sip of the wheat beer and was reminded of the sour, yet soothing, bitter taste as it descended into the throat. Fei took a happy breath, then glanced at the pub.


Most of the men in the pub were mercenaries, wearing old but neat leather clothes. His armor looked like it was heavily polished, making his skin look smooth and shiny. It sounded like thunder as they spoke, sitting together in small groups and laughing out loud. There were also some people who liked to enjoy a beer while waiting for the opportunity to grab the buttocks of the grooved servants, then everyone started laughing again. People have their own groups. If you pay more attention, you can find different types of badges that show their status to others. Although the Hot Water Bath did not allow additional royal troops into the city, these mercenaries looked like an exception. Fei noticed that almost every one of them was carrying weapons.


Compared to those mercenaries in the pub, Fei and the two girls looked completely out of place, not only the way they dressed but also their temperament that appeared unwittingly. From the very beginning when Fei brought Angela and Emma to the pub, some people were looking at them curiously, or rather, they were staring at the two girls. The innocence and beauty of Angela and Emma really refreshes the pub that used to be filled with rudeness and stupidity.


“Hey, beautiful ladies, allow me, Old Man, the opportunity to buy you a drink. ”


"God, I see my charming god. Hahaha, drink. I rarely see a beautiful woman here. ”


Once upon a time, there were some excited and hasty men from afar lifting their steel cups to convey their praises along with laughter.


As for accepting this nice invitation, Angela was not angry. Instead, he chose to be enthusiastic as well as elegant. He would hold the cup with a sweet smile on his face and sip it in response to the laughter of the mercenaries. You can find no influence on him, but only deep elegance.


Fei was surprised to learn that his fiance's taste from birth not only had an influence on animals. Even those rough mercenaries were greatly affected, and they were friendly when they were with him. Fei knew, it was a kindness from the bottom of their hearts. It was an emotion that only people had for their families.


The wooden door was pushed open as Fei chuckled. Two shadows appeared on the door, one tall and the other short.


“Haha, look who's here! Old York, when did you return from the empire? ”


"Haha, I just got back, I can't wait to come here and have a drink with my friends .." The tall one replied as he looked around, looking around, finally heading to Fei's table with the short little guy, said, "Hey young man, can I have a seat here? Elsewhere is full. “


Fei smiled and pushed two wooden chairs towards him, “Please sit down. “


"Thank you, man .." The tall man named York sat down happily.


Fei suddenly felt that things were going dark in front of him, as if a gigantic mountain was standing in front of him. This guy is very strong. Even the barbarians in the Diablo world were inferior to him. He was about thirty or forty years old, but his fiery red beard attracted a lot of attention, making him seem like a brave and forthright man. His colleague, on the other hand, was much thinner with tanned skin tones, but you can still tell that he was quite handsome. Not long after, Fei noticed that this skinny, tanned man looked very shy. Most of the time he was just looking down, but when he raised his head, there was a timid smile, together with white teeth and dimples on his face, it made him look like an amazing young man.


"Hey buddy, get me two big rye beers! Hurry... ”the big man York knocked on the table and shouted, it seems he can't wait for longer.


His voice rumbled like muffled thunder in a pub. However, the other mercenaries were already used to this, and all exploded into laughter. Someone asked in a high tone, "Premium hmmm wheat beer? Old York, looks like you got lucky after going to the empire …"


"Emmm, a little, but just a little. “The big man scratched his head with a smile hanging on his face, not even trying to hide the fact that he did make a lot of money.


"Oh, come on, you gotta get us a drink because you got money in your hands. "Someone shouted.


"Okay friends, drinks for everyone .. I mean, regular rye beer, I can't afford the premium for so many people. "The big man said excitedly without hesitation.


The crowd responded with loud applause and cheering. The pub was full of noise and excitement again.


However, this person did not seem to be too happy about it. No matter how hard he winked at the big man who tried to stop him, he just didn't get a clue at all. So he gave up, and couldn't help but shake his head and stare at the big man with an awkward smile.


Seeing this, Fei started laughing at himself.


Fei had been observing the two people the entire time. They made a pretty strange mercenary group. As he knew, they were definitely not of the best level. That big fellow might be a one-star pinnacle samurai, but the young man might not even be close to a one-star one. However, the strange feeling and sharp sensitivity of someone like Fei who has 【Mode Barbarian】 tells him that this young black man is as innocent as he thought he was. Fei could tell there was some potential danger deep inside the man, and his scent was already familiar to Fei, as if he had found it somewhere before.


"Hey, Old York, tell me about your trip to the empire, anything interesting?" Someone screams at the pub.


"Alright, speaking of the great events in the empire, one of the most attention-grabbing was the military contest among the 250 child states. There were only 10 days left, and 80 or 90 percent of the auxiliary state troops had been stationed outside the empire. Not to mention that ten first-class subsidiary countries already exist. "The great man does not continue the conversation until he has a big drink," All chambers of commerce, private banks, and casinos have set odds and historically high payouts in the market. Many aristocrats and businessmen bet madly on this contest … "


“Stop here, expire now, we all already know about this event. Everyone in the empire knew that only those from first-class child states had a chance of becoming the final winner. “Someone contradicts.


"Then you don't have a clue, I'm afraid it might be different this time. "The great man laughed as he shook his head," I heard that a few days ago among the kings in additional countries, I heard that, there was an incredible young master who appeared out of nowhere going to the contest, who shocked the entire empire by defeating Golden Sun Knight – Chris-Sutton, who was the first to win the contest, one of the top ten Execution Knights of the Imperial Knight Palace, in the battle at the twin pinnacle tower. ”
