Chapter 215 This Is a Bad Start
so happy? Are mercenaries in this world so popular, or is the situation in Greenthorn City really difficult to this extent? Du You was a little confused, but went in anyway.
After getting closer, Du You found out that the soldiers in Greenthorn City seem to be many, but in fact they are not very strong.
This point is far from the other outer world, the world of natural disaster behemoths. Most of the soldiers here are only level 1, and they have just entered the category of formal professional entry.
There are even some that don't even have a rank. Are they obviously ordinary people?
Here, a level 2 person can be the captain of a team, and a level 3 person is more like a leader of a large army. I don't know if it's just Greenthorn City or the whole world.
If this is the case in the entire Outer Territory world, then Du You must take a good measure of the real strength of this world.
"Come in, come in quickly, our Green Thorn City is relatively small, and there is no branch of the mercenary association, so we can't give you quest points, but we can use other things as compensation."
A guy who looked like an official, bowed his body slightly, and said with a smile like a dog's leg.
"It doesn't matter, I just want to walk around anyway." Du You didn't say much. He came to the new world and just came into contact with the human beings in this world. Du You didn't want to expose anything because he talked too much.
And Du You's cold demeanor really made the other party even more humble.
Soon, a wretched old man walked over under the guard of others. This person is only level 1, but if he has a level, he is no longer an ordinary person in this city.
Du You sighed in his heart, these wastes are not as good as the goblins in the Goblin Forest. At least the larger tribes in the Goblin Forest, their leaders are still level 6.
No wonder the panel will give itself the task of exterminating the robbers, or three waves. It seems that the strength of the robbers here is really not very good. This is what poverty has become.
Walking into Greenthorn City, Du You can understand it better. Many of the civilians here are naked, with yellow faces and thin skin. There was not a single beggar along the way.
Du You knew that this was not because of the good governance here, but on the contrary, because there was no way for the beggars to live here.
Everyone can't get enough to eat by themselves, so where is there any extra food for those beggars.
"Hello, I'm the city owner of Greenthorn City, and your Excellency is a mage?"
It turns out that this little old man is still the city lord here, so he doesn't know how he became the city lord.
Du You didn't hide it either, and said directly, "I am a magician." To the outside world, Du You always introduced himself as a magician. Even when facing the natives, Du You didn't change.
"Magic Master? What kind of profession is this?" The city owner looked strange.
The official who brought Du You said in a low voice: "Is it a classification of mages? I heard that various occupations in big cities have specific classifications, and there are no small places."
The city lord thought for a while, and then said, "So will your Excellency use spells?"
Du You waved a magic bullet into the sky, and he has not used this basic magic bullet for a long time.
"It's really magic. It seems that Your Excellency is indeed a noble mage. It's really great that you can help us, and we can get through the current crisis this time." The city owner actually didn't hide his situation at all. Aren't you afraid that you would take advantage of the danger and use this opportunity to make a big bid?
But then Du You understood that even if he wanted the lion to open his mouth, he couldn't help it, because the city was already so poor, what good things could he get. And because he is a professional, the wealth of this world is useless to him.
"Can you explain the problem you encountered?" Du You said directly.
The city owner didn't hide it, he spoke directly, and several officials next to him added a few words from time to time to explain the situation here.
It turned out that Qingthorn City was just a very inconspicuous small city in the Shenyan Empire, on the edge of the edge. Even this place does not know whether it can be regarded as the territory of the Empire, because this place is too remote.
The officials of the empire were reluctant to come, and Qingthorn City only thought that it was the territory of the Shenyan Empire, and it was a nominal existence. Without officials and soldiers sent by the empire, they could only form a militia team by themselves, and the city lord was also elected.
It's really too democratic, Du You thought to himself.
For a long time, Qingthorn City was self-sufficient. They had some land above the cliff, and they could grow some food and barely survive. Usually also organize hunting to improve life.
The goblins in the goblin forest won't leave the forest easily, so as long as they don't go deep into the goblin forest, there is not much danger. This remote and desolate place, even if there are no soldiers guarding, no one will come to occupy it.
But this year is not good, the south is dry and it rains very little.
There was no way to transport water up the cliff, and as a result, the only water flow became smaller and smaller. Du You looked at the size ratio of the water flow to the surrounding pools, and it was indeed a lot dry. Because there is less water, there is less food.
But for some unknown reason, many robbers suddenly appeared in the vicinity this year, so that even if they wanted to go out to buy some food, they couldn't do it, and now they are trapped here.
Originally, Greenthorn City was ready to give it a go and make a bloody path. But Du You suddenly appeared at this time, which made them see another hope. After all, in the Divine Flame Empire, a mage is a very noble existence. Especially in a small place like them, the mages are about to be myths.
Just listening to their words made Du You depressed. There is nothing here, let alone what I need, I am afraid I can't even get what I don't need.
"Forget it, let's finish the main quest, and then I'll leave. By the way, let's get to know the situation of the Divine Flame Empire." Du You made up his mind and wouldn't stay here for too long.
In such a poor place, even if a task is given, I am afraid that I will not be able to get a very good task reward. They are also border cities. Why is your Greenthorn City so much worse than border achievements? This is a complete world.
"Okay, let's talk about the robbers, I need to know their location." Hearing Du You's words, the eyes of the officials around who had been complaining all the time suddenly lit up.
