Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 1081: Stupid

? There are two rows of oranges planted in front of the Golden Orange Tavern, which is very suitable for the occasion. www*xshuotxt/com It's just that there are no oranges now, only dark green branches and leaves. It was afternoon, but music and voices were already coming from the tavern, and it sounded very lively. After several renovations, the tavern was expanded into the main building in front, a row of houses in the back, and a yard. The main building is used as a tavern and is divided into two floors. The row of rooms at the back is also in the nature of a hotel, which is used for the rest of the drinkers and also provides some special services.

When Allen pushed open the door of the tavern and walked in, he could smell the air filled with alcohol, wheat fragrance woman's perfume and other strange smells. He frowned and picked a seat by the window. There was a drunken man there, but he occupied a large table, so the bartender spread him out, and Regis gave him a gold coin for this. Ask the bartender to bring smoked fish and vegetables in orange wine, and the rest is his tip.

The bartender left happily, after all, there are not many generous guests.

It's just that the actions of Alan and the others attracted the attention of several men nearby, especially the beauty of Lucy and Laura made them breathe heavily. However, considering the blood that Laura left on the table and the sword that Regis placed on the table, reason finally overwhelmed the impulse and continued to bury his head in drinking.

The guests in the tavern talked loudly, and there was a burst of knowing laughter from time to time. No matter what town you're in, a tavern is always a good place to ask for news. Allen didn't plan to inquire about any news, but from the conversations of the drinkers, he could somewhat hear the latest important news from the empire.

Among them, two news are most interesting.

One is the crown prince of the royal family; the other is the Shadow Principality gathering troops from the north and the south.

It is no secret that the royal family is now the heir, and this town is not far from the emperor, so it is only natural to receive news. Moreover, there is a lot of news from Olisga, such as the secret wrestling between the three princes, Emperor Tangleo's comments on the princes, and even the factions behind the princes. These major events have become a topic of conversation in the tavern, and even these drinkers know more than Allen.

As for how much of this information is true and how much is false, it is impossible to know.

However, it seems that from the ministers of the imperial capital to the ordinary people, the second prince Julian is generally not treated. After all, it seems that Lian's mother came from an ordinary background, even though the second prince has a teacher who was the former prime minister. But Naibert was also from a commoner background, and most of the friends he made were people from the same background. The most deadly thing is that the second prince's family lacks the force to hold the scene. It is said that they suffered a big loss in the wrestling with the first prince Haosen not long ago because of this.

On the contrary, the eldest prince Howson and the fourth prince Seves are powerful in force. With the support of the Imperial Department behind Hao Sen, there are many strong men in the army to serve him, with strong force, he ranks first among the three princes. As for the fourth prince, Serves did not have many powerful people around him, but he had an uncle who was ranked among the ten holy ones, and he was extremely tough in terms of force.

In comparison of the two,

Julian, the second prince, has nothing to commend him except for his good at dancing from his teacher Naibert. Although the prince has great insights in military strategy, he was even praised by Tangliou. But the lack of real strong men under his command is an unavoidable fatal injury.

As for the actions of the Shadow Principality, it even affected the hearts of ordinary people. After all, the crown prince battle is too far away from them. It is a game of the emperor's grandson and nobles. Which one becomes the crown prince has little impact on the common people. At least the empire will not be affected in any way until the crown prince sits on the throne. But the Shadow Principality is different. Looking at the history of the Balegon Empire, it is not difficult for the empire and the Shadow Principality to have a war every few decades. This has become the historical norm, but the scale of the war is slightly different.

The hatred between humans and alien races spread with the continuation of the blood. Every once in a while, either the humans marched westward, or the army of the Shadow Principality came eastward. But this time, it is obvious that the Shadow Principality intends to take the initiative to attack. It is no secret that the troops of the foreign races gather in the north and the south, but it is quite surprising that the foreign races intend to open two fronts this time.

Even civilians who don't care about the military know the truth that the weak gather to be strong. The military power of the Shadow Principality does not have an absolute advantage, and the outcome with the Emperor Group is only a 50-50 split. Now divide the battle line into two sides, even if the Emperor Corps has to divide its troops for this purpose, but the Emperor still has a geographical advantage, and the Shadow Principality's move gives people a sense of unwiseness.

This news also made Allen feel uncomfortable.

As early as when he was in the mountain city, he already knew that the Shadow Principality had plans to attack the north from the south, but the plan of those foreign races who wanted to occupy the mountain city and then quietly invade the southern border was destroyed by him. But now, instead of retreating, the foreign races have assembled their troops. This is not good news for Allen, whose territory is in the southern border and next to the border. Once the war broke out, his territory would definitely be implicated. Even if the emperor arrived, but the war happened in his territory, the result could be imagined.

Fortunately, Ark Port and Iron Spear Ridge have now become a family, and there is a war in the south, and Huo Yi has to deal with it no matter what. With the Marquis of Iron Spear, the losses in the war may be reduced by one or two.

At this time, another person entered the tavern door.

The traveler in a black cloak walked into the tavern in a hurry. When he pulled down his hat, his long, slender silver hair attracted the attention of the people in the tavern. Some men even whistled at him and laughed maliciously. The silver-haired man remained expressionless, and sat down at the long table at the bar and said calmly, "Give me a glass of orange wine with ice."

When the bartender put a glass of iced fruit wine in front of his eyes, there was a series of shouts and curses in the tavern, and then a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman staggered out and fell at the feet of the silver-haired traveler. The man bent down and gently pulled her up, and the pretty woman said "thank you". A few tall and thick men came out from behind and grabbed her by the hair and cursed, "Bitch, where are you going?"

They pulled the woman's hair and walked towards the back of the tavern. The woman screamed, and finally cried helplessly to the silver-haired traveler: "Help me, sir. Please, don't let them hurt me... Ah!"

She was punched in the stomach and couldn't even speak. One of the men with a bushy chest said to the travelers on the bar: "Don't mind your own business."

The black-clothed traveler snorted, drank the orange wine in the glass, put down a few silver coins, and got up to walk to the back of the tavern. The bartender stopped him and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't bother with this kind of thing."

"But you are not me." The traveler in black said indifferently.

The bartender shrugged and let go. The figure of the man disappeared at the back door of the tavern, and he rolled his eyes: "Another idiot."

Allen narrowed his eyes and stood up. Lucy said, "What are you going to do?"

"Go mind your own business."

"That gentleman's intentions are good, but you don't think he has a long lesson to teach, but the bartender has already reminded him."

"You have to know that there are not many idiots like this now. And sometimes, people need such an idiot, and I just don't want him to be disappointed in the world." Allen said lightly.

The back door of the tavern was pushed open by the traveler in black, and a corridor led to the small courtyard behind the door. Several men dragged the woman to the other side of the corridor, and the traveler in black shouted, "Hey, let her go!"

The men really let her go, and a few of them laughed grimly, and the man at the head said: "This gentleman who upholds justice is so brave, I guess he will pay a few gold coins for this chick, lest we take this The chick is screwed."

The woman crawled and ran from the ground, came behind the traveler in black and cried, "Please, don't let them hurt you. I will repay you. You can do whatever you want me to do, just don't let them take me away." .”

A man with a dagger exposed at his waist said, "That's right, this bitch has a good oral job, or she can lick you comfortably, but the premise is that you have to pay the money she owes us."

"How much does she owe you?" the traveler in black asked.

"Not much, just ten gold coins."

"Okay, I'll give you money." The traveler put his hand into his arms, and suddenly the woman behind him screamed. He turned around and saw a young man standing behind him, holding the woman's arm with one hand, and there was a dagger in the woman's hand.

Allen said lightly: "You were fooled, they are actually a gang. If you hand over the money, this lady will stab you. There was something painted on the dagger, maybe it was a drug, I guess they didn't You have the guts to commit murder near the imperial capital. But if you are knocked out, your belongings will definitely be stripped off, and then you will be thrown into the cold street, am I right?"

He exerted a little force, the woman screamed, and the dagger fell to the ground with a bang. There is some abnormal color on the edge of the blade, it really is smeared with medicine. The traveler in black sighed, as if he was very disappointed in the woman. Alan pulled her, passed the black-clothed traveler, pushed the woman towards the men and said, "You go, I don't want to cause trouble, I just pretend nothing happened today."

Then turned around, but the clothes traveler pointed behind him. Catching the sound of the fast approaching wind in his ears, Allen sneered, and slammed straight back into the arms of the man who wanted to hug him from behind. Immediately there was a sound of broken bones, and the man flew out in response, screaming continuously. Allen turned around and said, "I don't want to cause trouble, but it doesn't mean I'm afraid of trouble."

When he and the black-clothed traveler returned to the tavern, the men in the corridor were all lying on the ground, and everyone had broken bones and bruises. They couldn't recover after a few months of recuperation. When he came to the bar, the traveler in black said to Allen, "Thank you, how about I buy you a drink?"

"No need, I've already had some drinks just now, and now I feel a little drunk." Alan smiled and said, "Be careful next time, you are a good person, but in this world, bad people rule, so it's always right to be careful."

"Thank you for your suggestion, sir." The black-clothed traveler nodded.
