Act 62 Chablis

The late summer breeze has a hint of sweetness, and it makes you slightly drunk under the warm sun, August is over, and October is approaching.

The young man stretched out his hand to the clear blue sky, his five fingers covering his vision, allowing the soft sunlight to flow through his fingers, and the light changed and was extraordinarily beautiful. Then he sighed and lowered his hand, and the verdant hills of Chablis around him came back into view: the air was dry and pleasant, and the weather was sunny and pleasant.

It's just that the dark green that has spread all over the mountains since midsummer has faded a corner, and the leaves of trees such as ginkgo, metasequoia and plane trees have begun to take on a light yellow layer at the earliest, while the fragrant trees in the forest are dyed a pale red, and the mottled colors are like oil paint flowing into the color palette, blending together to produce a natural beauty that makes people feel excited.

He sat on horseback, one hand grasping the reins, staring not far away at a gray-white cliff that stood out in the sun, a river confluence at the bottom of the mountain, and a roof with red tiles. It's Chablis. Chablis was hardly known in the past games, and Brando only knew that it was located in the central region of Jean Denel, where it was inhabited by a small minority of the Eru, one by one.

There is a dense forest in the north of the town, and the ruins of the former silver elves are hidden under the cascading canopy, called the ruins of Balogan-St. Gelles, which used to be an open temple of the silver elves, and the silver atrium is built in the middle of the dense forest, one by one connected with a holy white arcade, which is in line with the mysterious and majestic beauty of this racial philosophy.

However, back in the year of the Shadow Dragon, the elves had left the area for unknown reasons, and the temple had been abandoned, and it was now inhabited by a group of lizardmen bandits, if Brando remembered correctly. In the past, there was no background in this area, and the reason players traveled to the ruins of the Silver Elf Temple was to plunder the riches of the Lizardmen bandits. Of course, the game designers gave them a more high-sounding reason, probably for the sake of eliminating harm for the people.

This made Brando laugh. Players never need excuses, but game designers have to find ways to make their worlds self-consistent, so they have to help these games ▲Locust's find 5 reasons that seem as reasonable as possible. It's just that aside from the plot party, it's a thankless affair in the first place.

But now his mind had changed, and he found that the backgrounds he had not known before were now foggy.

Brando had never been to Chablis before, because there were no less than a hundred copies of the ruins of Balogan-Santa Gelles in the past in the Golan and Elson region alone, and players could not afford to venture to other provinces when they were low-level, and the designer's idea was also biased in this direction.

However, as a veteran player, he had heard more or less rumors about these areas: the ruins of the temple of Balogan-St. Gelles, which was entrenched in Chablis, where the lizardmen bandits, or the weathered mausoleum of Levistan, full of traps and undead creatures, and the floating city of Caracel, where players fought with mayflies.

Each one is wealth and treasure. An adventure story set against the backdrop of swords and swords.

Brando probably never expected that he would one day have the opportunity to come to these places when he was collecting these materials, but now he stood on the hill and watched the Chablis below the rooftops one by one, and the curling smoke rose like a slanted line and then dissipated in the clear space. I felt a feeling in my heart, thanks to the fact that I didn't have the slightest intention of picking up cheap at the beginning, otherwise I would really have to be blackened by now.

He thought about the ruins of Balogan and St. Gelles, and about the lizardmen bandits.

But the Chablis region is as beautiful as the forum says, peaceful and tranquil enough to keep your heart here forever, like a haven of calm and calm.

Roman led her beloved foal out of the forest behind her, and bought them one by one from a merchant who had brought Denel to Pragues, and she was reluctant to ride more. The eldest lady of the merchant looked curiously at the mountains and rivers of Chablis, and her dark eyes flashed with a layer of excitement:

"Brando, is this the place?" She asked.

"Ah," Brando replied, nodding, "This is Chablis, the name Chablis was left by the former Silver Elves, meaning #039; Sweet mountains'. It seems that we are lucky, the undead of Madara, probably did not pass through here, and it is as quiet as ever. ”

However, he thought to himself that this was not surprising, and that the Instaron march would definitely choose a more prosperous land

District.

Presumably, that black jazz bypassed the hard bone of Praggs in order to make a detour to Denel

Come to reap the benefits, of course, you won't have nothing to do with the compound leaf hills in this poor countryside.

What's more, these are all stories that have already happened in history', and Brando is confident.

"Do you have any snacks in Chablis?" Miss Merchant's question immediately stepped up again.

"You can try. Mountain people's hot pot. Brando looked back at the girl he loved, and smiled dotingly: "But it seems that since you left Magitan, little Roman has become more and more greedy, be careful to gain weight." ”

When Roman heard this, a pair of small eyebrows immediately stood up, and he hurriedly defended: "Cai, Cai, I won't gain weight, I just eat a little." But it sounded more like self-consolation, and she quietly checked her waist with her hand, and her brow furrowed.

It seems that the contradiction between food and gaining weight makes her so distressed for a while that she can't choose.

"Knight

Is here the slate you said ▲ the sage'? "Antitina in the back rode a black horse with a shiny coat like satin; The girl's face had grown rosy these days, and she no longer had the sickly pallor of her first encounter with Brando, and though she had traveled a long way, at least she did not have to worry about the next meal every day.

She had a long scroll box strapped to her horse, which contained not only the crystallization of her wisdom and her most precious treasure, but also the priceless treasure that Brando valued the most. He insisted on bringing Antitina with him because of the parchment covered with various lines.

The girl coughed twice, looked up at the clear sky, and murmured, "It's almost October." Bar. ”

"Don't worry, no one should be the first to do this time." Brando knew the maiden

What is being asked.

It had been more than a month since they left Pragues, and news of the truce between Eruin and Madara had reached every local noble house in the south by the end of August. At that time, they had just arrived in the territory of Jean Denel, and first settled in Markitan, the capital of the county.

Brando's hopes were for the Sage Slate in the Forest of Mists to the west of Magitan, but the Sage Slate had been acquired by the local Church of the North Wind as it had been in the previous games. Brando had little friendship with the Knight of the Borean Breeze, who was the Comte de Nell, and after a while in the area, he had to leave.

However, during his time at Magitan, he introduced Roman to the most famous local snack, a honey dessert, and as a result, the merchant lady is now interested in the snacks of each place.

Thinking of this, Brando couldn't help but smile slightly, but suddenly realized in his heart the December coup: there are still two months left. He thought he would not be able to make it, but he could only rest assured that he would leave it to the future princess regent and the girl from the countryside of Buchi

Freya.

Presumably, Freya had arrived at the Royal Knight Academy, located in the princess's private domain

It's just that I don't know what kind of Cheng dù is so nervous about the shape outside now. But manpower will eventually be poor, and he does not have the capital to participate in the game between the princes now. At this moment, Brando's biggest task is to continue to grow himself, and as soon as he mentions strengthening himself, he can't help but think that at this time, Leto and his party should have entered the territory of the province of Anlek.

"Are we going to find that slate here?" Antitina asked.

"Well, there is a ruin of a silver elf in the north of here, and it is rumored that the stone slab is among the ruins." Brando replied. He had in mind to find a guide, and he knew the background of the area, but since he had never been to Chablis, he did not know where the ruins of St. Gelles in Balogan were.

It's just that there is a lizardman bandit entrenched in the ruins, and this matter will not be as easy as he imagined. In past games, Balogan a Sagile with; The ruins are a level 23 dungeon, and although it is far lower than the forbidden orchard of the Golden Demon Tree, there are no shortcuts here.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to go to the town first.

The three of them descended the gentle slope and entered Shabu in less than half an hour

Sharp.

In fact, the town of Chablis is very different from most towns in the south of Eruin, and it is not a simple matter that the mountain people built the town in the mountains. Following the wisdom of their ancestors, they filled the sloping hillside with stones, so that the new part of the town was always stacked on top of the old part, and over time, the whole town was stacked up the river at the foot of the mountain, more like a stone fortress.

If there is one impression to describe the town, it is the staircase, a large number of staggered staircases. The buildings are lined up on terraces, and narrow, slender staircases connect the spatially staggered platforms.

The original style of the southern mountains of Eruin is still maintained, and the mountain people rarely use the power of magic, and they build stone-carved lampposts on both sides of the stone steps, and put braziers in the hollowed-out places, which can also replace the role of oil lamps or magic street lamps.

Brando remembers that there was only one bar in Chablis, an inn called 'Chablis Lantern', which was the name of the Chablis player's sub-section on the forum, and it was for this reason that he remembered this legendary inn.

It's legendary because it's the only inn that is home to almost all of Chablis' adventurers, mercenaries, and players, and it's shaped like a spacious hall with rooms underneath it. Usually travelers gather in the hall above to exchange news with each other, and there is only one such inn in the entire southern border of Eruin.

However, all the way into the town, Antitina and Roman did not notice anything, but Brando immediately noticed a hint of something unusual.

He immediately looked around cautiously, as the men dressed in distinct costumes from the traditional costumes of the surrounding mountain people passed through the street in twos and threes, mostly of their prime of life, and some of them cast suspicious glances at the three of them. Brando recognized them almost immediately—Travelers, Adventurers, Mercenaries, and Monster Hunters.

These people were supposed to be anywhere in Vainde, but they were ......

For the small place of Chablis, it seems like a little too much.

This isn't the Chablis of the past games with a large number of players.
