Quixote and Sancho: They were really eye-opening today.

Ellington, who was originally thought to be extremely poor and almost everyone was yellow-skinned, has changed dramatically in just one year.

Not only are the dirty, narrow dirt streets gone, but the low, shady little houses have been torn down in favor of wide, flat black roads and a variety of new houses with distinct and distinctive styles.

If that wasn't enough, then Gitchote felt that the dwarves and gnomes he had witnessed would probably be one of the most important discoveries of the trip.

Although dwarves are occasionally seen in the human realm, they are usually the guests of some big man and a master blacksmith, so dwarves are nothing.

But the dwarf race, thanks to the propaganda of the goblins, has no good image in the rumors of mankind.

Dirty, vulgar, stupid......

In order to despise the gnomes, the goblins use almost all the negative words that can be used in their propaganda, which also leads to many humans who have never seen a dwarf with a very bad impression of the gnomes.

That's why when Quixote saw the team of dwarves, gnomes, and humans, he was so shocked.

"That's why I said, the strength of alloy No. 2 is still not enough, and the mixing ratio of pure gold needs to be increased."

What is the dwarf talking about? Alloy? Adamantite?

"If you increase the proportion of fine gold, the high-quality and inexpensive characteristics of universal alloy will disappear, and the paver is not a weapon, why do you need such a high strength, put away your set!"

How dare this dwarf reprimand that dwarf? I must be dazzled, right?

"Two masters, no matter what...... The question of compensation is always indispensable, right? ”

Edgar smiled wryly. Sandwiched between Brian and Nokia, his identity can only be a peacemaker.

So Brian and Nokia looked at Guicote with a brush: "Lose money!" ”

…… After finally losing money and regaining his freedom. Quixote couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Captain Quixote, this Ellington is very strange!"

Sancho whispered: "Dwarves, gnomes, and humans can actually live in harmony, doesn't it mean that most of the dwarves and dwarves have returned to the depths of the mountains in order to avoid conflict with humans?" ”

"That's true, but you can't organize them out."

Quixote shook his head, though he felt bad about what had just happened, but now he was in a happier mood.

"Captain Quixote?"

"Sancho. And you, don't look at me like that, use your brains! ”

Quixote looked at them with a look of hatred: "Think about it. Ellington: There are dwarves and gnomes here! What does this mean? This shows that the rumors that Ellington was doing business with the elves are probably true! ”

"That is—"

Sancho's eyes lit up: "Elven clan, really appeared!?" ”

"Probably."

Quixote lowered his voice: "Don't talk nonsense here, in case someone hears us, we will be in trouble." Stay in Ellington today. Tomorrow we'll have a day off and see if I can find out anything about the elves. ”

Sancho laughed: "Of course it's okay! ”

The group came to the only inn in Ellington Town, which was the Oak Heart Tavern of Old Tom and Aunt Fanny.

When he saw Old Tom, Quixote breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately the owner of the tavern had not changed.

"Whew...... Did you find it, it's so cool inside the tavern! ”

"Really!"

"Don't talk too much."

Quixote scolded, then called out to the boss: "Boss, come to seven rooms!" ”

"Yo. This guest looks a little familiar, did he come last year? ”

Ellington doesn't have a handful of people all year round. So old Tom remembered what Quixote looked like, and Gicote was not surprised.

Seeing so many customers, he couldn't stop smiling: "How many days will you stay?" ”

"Two days."

"Okay, it's fourteen gold coins in total, please pay first."

Guicorde, who was digging out his wallet, froze there: "Sorry, how much?" ”

"Fourteen gold coins."

"Boss, are you kidding me!?"

Quixote was furious: "When I came here last year, a double room was only ten silver coins a night!" How come it has risen tenfold in just one year!? ”

"The standard is different, our tavern room has just recently ...... The renovation has been upgraded...... That's what you say, right? ”

Aunt Fanny nodded, and then Old Tom said with a smile: "Under the leadership of the wise lord, our Ellington is very different from before, believe me, after you stay, you will find that the price of a gold coin for one night is really worth it." ”

Despite Quixote's grievances, this was the only place Ellington could live.

"Sancho, lend me gold!"

Sancho looked incredulous: "Captain!?" ”

"Look at what, look!"

Guicote scolded with a black face: "Just fined, I paid all the money!" Where are the gold coins! ”

"But we don't have much ......"

"Less nonsense! Let's get it together! ”

Fourteen people, you cheated me, I dug you, and it was not easy for me to reluctantly scrape together twelve gold coins and two hundred silver coins, which can be regarded as squeezing out the house money.

Old Tom handed them the room key with a smile on his face: "Guests, it's still the same as on the second floor, I'm a little busy, please take care of yourself." ”

As soon as they turned around, they heard old Tom continue to laugh and say: "By the way, guests, now our dinner standard is several grades, ten silver coins, fifty silver coins, and one gold coin, because the number of guests is relatively large, so please let me know in advance what grade you want to eat, so I can let the kitchen prepare." ”

"Dinner ...... for a Gold Coin"

Quixote took a breath of cold air, is this still the poor and white Ellington!?

"Oh, it seems that our guests are very interested in our new special pepper series, and your lord will thank you for your support when he knows about it. This is where we get people to start preparing the materials. ”

Old Tom took Quixote's exclamation as an option, and went to prepare with his eyebrows fluttering.

“――”

Quixote opened his mouth, and he was too embarrassed to stop old Tom.

Facing the resentful gaze of the players. Quixote was annoyed: "Look at what I'm doing! Don't blame me! He took it out of context—"

"Vice-Captain Sancho, let's pay for dinner separately......"

"I think so too."

"Bastard! Can you bear to forsake me!? ”

"But who made you so reckless before, captain, that we lost thousands of gold coins at once......

"It's like, if we hadn't destroyed that magic paver, we wouldn't be so poor......"

"Damn! Don't forget, we did it together! And that's what I did! You don't want to make any money, do you!? ”

As soon as Quixote said this, the fellows shut up.

"Go back and get some rest, and then go outside to gather intelligence. That's it, disbanded! ”

After saying that, Quixote took the lead and went back to his room. Sancho smiled wryly and followed.

"Captain, it's easy for you to make them - Captain?"

"Sancho ......"

Frozen in front, Quixote's voice was a little dry: "I roughly understand why this room needs a gold coin for one night." ”

Sancho stepped forward to see it, and was stunned.

The rooms in this tavern are very different from the rooms in other places that I remember. The room was clean and tidy. The white sheets and bedding on the single bed were spotless, and a faint refreshing smell wafted through the room, reminiscent of the hot-selling mint hydrosol.

There were many strange things in the room, which Quixote did not recognize, but he could feel that these things were not simple, and it was probably the reason why the accommodation was so expensive.

"What's that?"

Sancho saw a small notebook on the table, picked it up and rolled it a few times. Then he handed it to Guicote with a little embarrassment on his face: "Forget that I can't read......"

Gicote briefly glanced at the book. He couldn't help but inhale the cold air, if it weren't for his little brother beside him, he would have wanted to turn around and run away - he was afraid that living here would break things!

What are those things?

Hanging on the wall is an expensive magic wall-mounted air conditioner! Feel free to adjust the temperature in the room! Even on a hot summer day, it can be very refreshing! It's because of this thing in the hall just now that it's so cool!

Hanging from the ceiling is an expensive magic crystal lamp! Illumination can be provided without lighting candles at night, the patent of the aristocracy and the rich! Here, too, they can enjoy that treatment!

On the table next to it is a magic kettle! You can boil water at any time to drink, no need to go to the kitchen to ask for hot water!

In the small cubicle next to it, the white and delicate ceramic sink is unbearable to touch, and there is another pool of water, which is so clean that they are not even able to see the adventurers.

But when Guicote read it, his face was red and white, and he thought it was a miniature well for storing water.

It was actually a ceramic toilet used to go to the toilet!

There is also a magic water heater hanging on the wall of the bathroom, so you can enjoy hot water at any time......

Oh, my God! The gods are above!

After reading the instructions in the notebook, and walking around the room, both Quixote and Sancho were dumbfounded.

Is this really Ellington?

This can't be Alinks, right? Or is it the City of Silver?

How could a tiny Ellington have so many magic props? And it's not seen in the Lord's Palace, it's just a tavern with a bad appearance!

Even the tavern can use these expensive magic items, but what about the rest of the people here?

What about the lords here?

Isn't their life more exaggerated? More incredible?

Gicote couldn't have imagined!

At the beginning, he also told his teammates that Ellington was a poor place that couldn't even afford to eat, and he also prepared them to endure hardships, but the reality slapped him hard.

Ellington poor?

So what are they?

Wandering beggars?

"Captain......

Sancho swallowed, "I'm more and more skeptical that we've fallen for some evil illusion...... Is this really the Ellington you are talking about? Are they hillbillies or are we hillbillies......"

Sancho was about to cry: "These things may not be seen even in the Grand Duke of Matany." ”

"This is, of course, Ellington! I won't be wrong! ”

Quixote took a deep breath: "It's just that in this year, Ellington has changed beyond everyone's imagination...... And also. ”

Gicote glared at Sancho fiercely: "Outside, don't mention the name of the adult!" ”

Sancho's face changed slightly: "Yes! (To be continued.) )
