Conora is located in the border area of the Kingdom of Camos, but to the west is surrounded by mountains, and to the east is the small wasteland of Aegma (the wasteland that punk passes), and there is a canal flowing through it, which is very convenient for transportation and freight. It can be said that its geographical location is to attack and retreat and defend, so it is an absolute strategic location. Although the Kingdom of Camos is located in a barren area and has not had war for many years, it has been tense in relations with the Kingdom of Dylan in recent years. The south side of Conora is the junction with the Kingdom of Dylan, so Conora has also had many more garrisons.
Punk and Kane walked towards the city gate together. A huge crimson flag was hung directly above the city gate. The flag was decorated with an abstract griffin. The flag fluttered in the wind and looked very imposing. The twenty-meter-high city wall is made of large pieces of granite, and there are many deep scratches caused by attacks by sharp weapons. Combined with the angular stone bricks of the city wall, a strong historical atmosphere comes to the face.
At the city gate, some people and merchants were lined up to wait for the soldiers to inspect. The soldiers were all big and round and very rude. They asked for bribes from those entering the city without any concealment. An old man in a shabby dress was pushed to the ground because the bribes he “paid” failed to satisfy the guards. The guard even scolded and kicked the old man in the leg.
Next to the main entrance of the city wall, there is a smaller side door, which seems to be for the nobles and professionals to enter and exit. Compared with the noisy and noisy gate, the side door seems much cleaner. Ordinary poor people are far away from there. There is only an old man dressed in a warrior sitting on a wooden chair. He looks like the gatekeeper of the side door. Punk roughly made some sense and found that the old man who was drinking in small sips was an apprentice warrior of about one level. Judging from age, it belongs to the type of promotion with no hope.
“I don’t want to queue here for half a day. Now I want to go to the city to find a big place to have a meal, and hurry up and go in from there. That old man must have no courage to stop him.” Kane stretched and pointed to the side door.
Punk actually had this idea in his mind, so he walked towards the side door with his staff.
The old man in the door saw a man dressed in a mage and a man dressed in a knight coming over, and quickly stood up and took out a piece of parchment from his arms. He raised his head and took a sip of wine, and stood in the middle of the gate.
Seeing this scene, Punk’s face turned gloomy. It seemed that the old man wanted to have a “benefit fee”, but Punk now only has five gold coins. Although one gold coin is already half a year for ordinary families, it can be said that it is extremely rare for Punk who wants to learn knowledge as soon as possible. He does not waste it inexplicably on the “benefit fee”.
“If that old man asks me for money, I will shoot him and then run away”! Kane next to him looked even more angry. He had enough money.It was almost gone, and the long journey of a week turned this impatient guy into an active volcano. Now that I saw the destination but was about to be stopped by the greedy guard, anyone would have the urge to beat someone up.
Punk doesn’t feel that he will be troubled. After all, he and Kane are both Level 4 professionals (the early upgrade is still very fast), so it is unwise to offend two Level 4 professionals for a little money. An old fry warrior should understand this.
Sure enough, the old man did not ask for money like a soldier at the gate. He just asked Punk and Kane to register his profession and level, and did not even ask for his name. When he saw that Punk and Kane, who were about fifteen years old, were actually level 4 professions, the old man was shocked and dropped the parchment to the ground.
