Chapter 123: Arriving at Yata

Henry and Barry have been good friends since the last time they talked together. The two of them often talk about what they have seen and heard together, and tell about their adventures. After three days, the huge tortoise shell on the deck was finally cleaned up. Henry cut it into small pieces according to the pattern on the top and put them into dimensional bags. He plans to use these items to make an animate armor that he can use to defend himself against physical attacks.

While Henry and his party were sailing on the sea, Sycodia in the Lord's Mansion of Bluvent City was in a hurry. Four days have passed since she was attacked at sea, and she has not seen her husband. The only thing that is certain now is that they are all alive, which is the result of Debra's divination using a prophetic spell.

"Don't worry, they'll all be fine. Didn't the mage tower already give the results of the divination, sit down and calm down, believing that there will be definite news soon. With that, Lily walked over and took Sycodi's hand and pressed her to the chair.

Poeti scratched at her hair restlessly. "You weren't there at the time, and you didn't see how terrifying that giant monster was. It's bigger than our ship, and I can't imagine what will happen to people if they fall into the sea. Hearing her words, Lily also sighed, sat down in her chair and began to think crankily.

After a while, the guard at the door ran in with a note. "Madam, the Mage Tower just sent someone to bring the latest news from the Earl."

Skaudi stood up and ran over to snatch it, desperate to see the news that her husband was safe. When I opened the note, it read: "I just received a message from the Earl with magic, and their group has been rescued safely and is on their way to Silvermoon City." After reading it, Sycodi's whole body relaxed. sat directly on the ground.

The housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to help her up. With a worried face, he asked, "Madam." Are you alright, would you like to call a priest or a druid? ”

Poeti smiled, a smile on her haggard face. "Finally getting the news that they're safe, I can go and get a good night's sleep." With that, she fell asleep.

Lily glanced at the contents of the note and breathed a sigh of relief, although she was more confident in her son, but she was still a lot more relieved after receiving the exact news. Soon the butler had the maid carry the sleeping countess back to her bedroom, and Henry's mother went back to her room to get a good night's sleep. After a few days of fear, the lord's mansion regained its calm.

After more than ten days at sea. Captain Barry commanded the sailors to steer the ship into the Desarin River. The orc warrior looked at the fading Deep Water City, and for a moment felt that his spirit was in a trance. He suddenly felt that he had been away from home for too long, and it seemed that he had not been back since he was an adult.

Henry noticed Vaughn's strange appearance and walked over and asked, "Are you alright, I seem to have seen you in a daze just now." ”

The orc warrior smiled self-deprecatingly. "Head, when I come back, I want to ask you for a leave, I don't know what's going on lately, there is always a voice in my heart calling me back."

"No problem, I just want to go to Icewind Dale to have a look, I heard that the ten towns there are very distinctive." When Henry heard that he was going to the Far North, he was immediately intrigued, and it was arguably one of the places he wanted to visit the most.

"Featured? That's right! The biggest feature of the Ten Towns is that whoever has the biggest fist will listen to whomever they want. In this extremely harsh environment. In addition to Bollinger. Outside of Shande, almost all of them make a living from fishing. Every year because of the fishing grounds. There would be several large-scale fights, and the dead would be thrown into the lake to feed the fish. "The orc warrior looked into the distance, telling of the harsh realities of the Far North.

His words aroused Amy's curiosity, and the girl came over and asked, "If that place is really that bad, why don't those people flee to the south?" ”

Vaughn was amused by her question, and he reorganized his language to reply, "It's full of murderers, thieves, barbarians, robbers, and people like me who are not popular with human society. Most of these people are wanted, and it is difficult to survive without Ten Towns. ”

Amy's eyebrows were already in a mess, and she grabbed her hair with one hand and pulled it down one by one. She really couldn't understand how such a group of people could set up a town and maintain local order.

Henry laughed and stopped the hand that was pulling at his hair. "If you pull it again, you're going to lose your hair. The reason is simple, as long as intelligent life gathers, a kind of rule will naturally form. Maybe it's rough and full of holes. But it cannot be denied that this is also order. Even the most chaotic demons of the multiverse obey the unspoken rule that the weak obey the strong. As for the towns, humans are too vulnerable to the rest of the world, and they have to build high walls and hide behind them to feel safe. Especially in a wild place like Icewind Dale, which is full of dangers, it is easy to be killed by other monsters without adequate protection. ”

"Head, you're right. If there is no Bryn. With the leadership of Sander and the sturdy city walls, the Ten Towns have long since been overrun by barbarians and monsters. The orc warrior completely agreed with Henry.

Amy listened for a long time and finally understood what was going on in Ten Towns, they were just a group of fugitives to protect themselves.

The boat followed the river all the way north, quickly passing through golden fields and stone bridges, and arrived at Yata Fortress in just three days. Henry stood on the boat and looked at the tall walls and the guards patrolling around, it seemed that the security situation here was very bad, otherwise he would not be so vigilant in broad daylight. The boat slowly entered the docks of the river, and as soon as it came to shore, Henry took his leave to the captain.

"Thank you very much for taking care of you along the way, we are now leaving for Silvermoon City, so we will say goodbye."

Barry patted Ares' muscular body and pointed to a dirt road in the distance. "Follow this road all the way and you'll get to Aylward in about a few days. When the time comes, hire a small boat there, and you'll be in Silvermoon City in a day's time. Finally, I wish you all a smooth journey. ”

Henry gave the captain a hug and led the group to the northeast. As soon as they walked out of the docks, they were stopped by a group of guards, and the captain who took the lead said to them loudly: "There have been terrible robbers on the road to Elward recently, and we suspect that the giants of the Eternal Wasteland are the ghosts of the ghosts. You must know that three groups of caravans have been attacked this month, and there is not a single hair left at the accident site except for some blood stains. If there is no urgency, it is better not to take this road, otherwise if something happens, don't blame me for not reminding you. ”

Hearing the news, Henry secretly sighed that he was really unlucky for this trip. First, they encountered dragon turtles and sharks while riding on the boat, and then encountered the road blocked by giant bandits. I really don't know if he offended the goddess of bad luck before he went out, otherwise this kind of frustrating thing has always haunted him recently. Counting the days, there are less than ten days left before the harvest celebration, and there is no way to arrive early if you don't hurry up.

"It's okay, we're all adventurers, and that big brown bear is my animal companion. I believe that I can deal with these bandits, and maybe I can help you deal with them. As he spoke, Henry gestured to his companions behind him.

The captain looked at the sturdy orc warrior and the huge brown bear and nodded. As for Amy's automatic ignorance, he didn't think that this soft-looking girl could have any fighting power.

"Alright then, Yatta has offered a bounty of five thousand gold coins. If you deal with these bandits, remember to cut off their heads for bounty. ”

Just as Henry was about to reply, a lady in a long dress next to him came up and asked, "Are you going to Aylward City?" ”

"Yes, Lady Marlene, these adventurers want to deal with the robbers who have been making a fuss lately." The captain saluted and answered the woman's question.

Marlene came to Henry, smiled and asked, "Sir, would you like to go along?" I would like to invite you to join the caravan and walk through the Eternal Wilderness together. ”

Henry looked at the woman, about thirty years old, dressed in a traditional blue dress. It seemed that there should be some identity, because the soldiers around her looked at her with admiration and awe. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that he could agree to this request, after all, there are more people, and it is better to have a response in addition to things. Even if ordinary mercenaries don't have much combat power, it's no problem to attract the attention of the enemy.

"No problem, but I'd like to instruct you on the size of your caravan."

Marlene stole a glance at the strong orc warrior and replied with a smile: "Of course, there are a total of one hundred and fifty people in the entire team, one hundred men and fifty mercenaries. There were about forty wagons of cargo. ”

Vaughn felt the woman's gaze and looked at her suspiciously. Bamberk flew over his shoulder, and was about to start singing a nasty song, when Amy noticed the sprout and rushed over to cover its mouth. Henry kicked the troublesome parrot behind him fiercely, he really regretted bringing such a troublemaker out now.

"We're in a hurry now, and we don't know when your caravan is going to leave?"

"My caravan is already ready, you see they're all over there." After saying that, Marlene pointed to the long line of carriages next to the city gate in the distance.

Henry took one look at the mercenaries and saw that their equipment was not bad, at least they were all wearing half-armor. Although the weapons are a bit varied, they are not bad.

"Ma'am, in that case, let them start on their way, and try to get out of Yatta's sphere of influence today."

Marlene nodded, waved her handkerchief into the distance, and a steward called out the guys and mercenaries, and the scene looked a little chaotic. It didn't take long for the men to start moving slowly in the wagon. (To be continued......)
