Chapter 41 Border Checkpoint

In the quiet valley, tens of thousands of skeletons were squeezed tightly together, and the scene looked extremely strange. The worst of these skeletons was silver skeletons comparable to second-level power. The more they went in, the stronger the skeletons were. The golden skeletons were almost everywhere. The densely squeezed these skeletons. The more they went to the center, the tighter and thicker the skeleton doors were squeezed. At the center, they almost stacked into a small hill.

Li Zhi's eyes directly locked on the center of the skeleton group. At first glance, Li Zhi saw that all the skeletons were falling towards that center, and there was absolutely strangeness there. Under the support of the clouds, his body floated to the center. He quickly noticed that the shapes of the skeletons in this central part were different from the surrounding skeletons, especially the twelve skeletons in the center. They used their bodies as structures and connected and pieced together, forming a strange shape.

Standing at this angle and looking around, all the skeletons in the distance fell to the ground and crawled towards this side. Li Zhi was about to think about it carefully, but he suddenly felt a bad premonition in his heart, but he couldn't say what it was. In this world, ordinary people can occasionally perceive certain things, but they have experienced more in life and death, and are more sensitive to crises. When their strength reaches his level, they rely on their will and torrents. Anyone who speaks his name will sense it, and occasionally they can predict some things in the future. When the sensing is done, Li Zhi knows that something bad will definitely happen at this moment.

At this moment, there had just been a light rain on Rector's territory. Such a season was not suitable for going out, but the light rain could not suppress the flame of desire in the hearts of merchants. Even at this time, there were still many merchants on the road from Rector's territory to Winster Territory. Recently, with the comprehensive cooperation between the Kingdom of Westerma and Winster Territory, some fast-handed merchants have returned to Rector's territory with the goods purchased from Winster Territory. These goods were quickly sold out and made a fortune.

Soon, a craze for "gold-rushing" to Winster had already risen, and merchants from farther away also came from all over the place, making this path that was unwalking for many years in the past become extremely busy. Even if it rains, the road is not easy to walk, and the ox carts on this road are still coming and going. However, due to the limited width of the road, it is very inconvenient to walk, especially when it is met, it cannot pass at all and often blocks the road.

This was the beginning, but now it is different. With the road not widening for the time being, Winster sent a engineering team. A convergence lane was driven every 100 meters along the road. With the convergence lane, the traffic on the road became much more convenient. Although every time you go so far, vehicles have to go to the convergence lane to make way, the commercial road is not busy enough now, and the ox carts are still limited every day, so there are not many pauses and the road is still smooth. It is many times better than traffic congestion.

"Stop." With a sound of stopping, a team of ox carts stopped in front of the checkpoint. This team of ox carts is not simple, with more than ten, most of them used to transport goods. However, one in the middle of the vehicle is not used to transport goods, but a relatively luxurious car for people to ride. It is obvious that it is not something that ordinary people can take. There is no doubt that this represents a merchant of a powerful nobleman. However, no matter which merchant it represents, he must stop and undergo inspection when he arrives at this checkpoint.

"Hmph, a group of civilians dared to stop the carriage of the Ax family. It was so presumptuous." A girl in the carriage said angrily, but her eyes fell on the lady next to the vehicle from time to time. At this moment, their lives were in the hands of the lady. "Oh? The Winster leader was ahead? It was indeed a bit of aura. A few ordinary people dared to stop the carriage of the noble wizard. Ariel, since you are angry, why go out to teach them a lesson."

The lady said to the girl next to her slowly. Before she finished speaking, the man next to her spoke: "Ariel, the status of the nobles comes from order. The denial of the existence of order itself denies ourselves. These soldiers dare to stop us, which means that there is an extremely strict order here, which is also beneficial to us. Get off the car and check it out. Madam, if you want to enter this territory, you must follow their order. Otherwise, no matter how powerful the lady is, it will not be good. Winster is a new generation core city of the Heradim Brotherhood, with at least five legendary fields."

While talking, the man told the lady that the reason for getting off the car to check to comply with the order was told to the lady. After listening, the lady refused to say anything, but Ariel didn't think so, "Get off the car to check, but, brother!" Ariel was about to speak and retort, but saw her brother looking at her with an unprecedented look.

"What do you want to do? The Winster leader is no better than other territories, nor is it the territory of our Ax family. I tell you, here, if you want to pick up your wizard's rack like you are in other places, then you will die miserably. Now several wizards have had trouble, do you think too? Moreover, we came to Winster leader to do business, and offend local lords, and the business can continue?"

"You believe the words of those adventurers in the tavern? They will only brag and spread rumors. Anything that comes to their mouths will be exaggerated ten times, and if it passes them one by one, it will be unrecognizable to you. If you dare to cast spells and injure and destroy them in Winster's territory, you will be suppressed by an inexplicable force, and you cannot even use spells. Those who kill people will even be killed directly by that force. Do you believe that? The legendary realm of the Heradim Brotherhood is true, but will they stand up for the civilians at any time? When will the noble wizard become slaves to the civilians?"

"Casting spells in Winster's territory will be suppressed, and killing people will be killed directly by force?" The lady sitting in the middle glanced at the girl: "You tell me what's going on?" As soon as she spoke, Ariel didn't dare to say anything. The wizard in front of her was extremely powerful and didn't even need a finger. She, a second-level wizard, was defeated without any resistance. In front of her, she could not even cast spells.

"Madam, I don't know the specific matters. I just heard it when recruiting adventurers." Ax took the conversation and said to the lady. After hearing this, the lady didn't make a sound, but she lifted the curtain and looked out. Her eyes were tightly locked on the young soldier standing next to the Winster Territory Post. In her eyes, the young soldier was just an ordinary human, and there was only a pale white human body brilliance on his body. However, in addition to his own brilliance, there was also a brilliance outside his body.

Following the extra light, she traced the source, then shuddered all over and took her eyes back. With just one glance, she understood why foreign wizards cast spells from Winster Territory had such consequences. The reason was that the extra power of each Winster Territory leader besides the brilliance of his own human body was that seemed weak, but could not be touched. Once touched, a huge force that even she was shocked would come from the spiritual void.

At this moment, she suddenly felt a sharp gaze penetrated the space and locked her directly. "No." She didn't care about anything else, and got out of the car, threw the brother and sister aside, and then disappeared between the mountains and forests at an extremely terrifying speed until she disappeared. Except for the brother and sister in the car, she didn't even know her existence. "Brother, she seemed very scared and ran away directly. What did you think she saw just now?"

"What did you see? It seems that the fact that Winster's sanctions are real. Even the wizard who is so powerful that it is so terrible will be frightened. Ariel, let's get out of the car for inspection." Seeing the lady leaving, Ariel cried. The lady put too much pressure on him. Ariel then opened the car door and pulled Ariel out of the car. At this time, the captain of the mailbox came over. "Two gentlemen, please come with me. When entering and leaving the Winster's gang must be registered. If it is a goods sold, the goods must be registered and taxed when entering the territory."

Ax nodded. This Winster leader was indeed extraordinary. The team leader should have been a refugee. If it were civilians from other territories and even officials who knew his identity, they would be humble and servile. How could this team leader talk to him like this? A civilian could do this, and he would have a ceremonial guard. His ceremonial guard was not something else, but the strong order of the Winster leader was supported behind it.

"Thank you, captain. This little thing is not respect. I am grateful to the captain." Although Ax was a nobleman, his parents were alive, so he did not inherit the title and territory. He has been running around for the family for many years. This time he came here mainly because he heard Kid talk about what happened here. He knew that Winster's lord would be an extremely huge cake, and his territory was next to Rector's territory. Then he personally opened the way to plan and organized some goods at a very fast speed to come to Winster's lord with a lot of money. This time, he was not just for business.

As a nobleman, he was born with many advantages than all non-noble people. Whether it was the resources he had or the control of information, he had a certain skill in running the family for many years and traveled around the country. He was also very familiar with the checkpoints in various places. At this time, he didn't take much money. Five silver coins were not bribery, but he scared the captain and quickly refused: "Sir, please take back your money."

Ax was not sure, so he just thought that the tip was not enough. Although he was a little unhappy, he still added five silver coins. Such a gold coins were a considerable amount. This time the team leader could only smile bitterly. The money was indeed a lot, but he would never dare to accept it.

The captain at the other territorial posts may be able to accept it readily, but he must not. Once he accepts it, the salary will be quite good, and a decent job will be gone. At that time, no one in the entire Winster Corps will look down on him anymore. His previous term has problems in this regard. There are also several officials in the territory. As a result, the ending is very miserable. How dare he do whatever he wants?

In Winster, from the Chief of the Interior Affairs Office, from the officials of villages and towns at all levels, to the team leader like him, the treatment has been considered. Compared with other noble territories, a village chief is better than those native-capped nobles. Although his treatment is not as good as that of other territories, it is far beyond other territories. The lord of Winster said that I can give you better treatment, but you will never allow you to reach out. What will happen if you reach out? The punishment will be extremely severe.

"Sir, please take the money back. I must not ask for this money. Not only me, but other officials in our Winster leadership are like this, and the territory of Lord Winster will be like this in the future." The captain said to Ax with a wry smile. Ax then realized that it was like this. The previous displeasure disappeared without a trace, and the money I took out was not recovered: "Thank you for reminding the captain, please accept this amount of money. There are no other people here, and I will never tell others, you should take it."

This time, Ax was willing to give these ten silver coins and one gold coins. The team leader dared not take the money. He was so scared that he hurriedly stepped back. As a result, the money fell directly to the ground and sounded, attracting everyone's eyes. "Jon, what's going on?" A male voice came from the far post card. The team leader was so scared that he turned around and saluted him instinctively: "Report to the captain, this merchant insisted on giving me ten silver coins, and I dare not accept them."

The door of the checkpoint was opened, and a relatively older soldier walked out of it and stood beside him: "Jon, I said I don't dare, then do you want to accept it?" He said extremely harshly, scaring Jon almost cried. Seeing Jon's bitter look on his face, he gave up. Jon had experienced this kind of thing dozens of times in the past half month. "Sir, please take back your money. We are in Winster. No one dares to ask for such money. The treatment of civil servants in our territory is very good. This little money is only our weekly salary, but after receiving this money, we will never have to receive salary in our lifetime."

Only then did Ax realize that a team leader like this was so high that it was really scary. Only a knight in his family could receive such treatment, and these people in front of him were all ordinary people. At this moment, a group of people in the team behind suddenly became turbulent, and adventurers were panicked and ran forward as if they were facing a great enemy.

"What's going on?" Ax looked back. As a nobleman, he had some strength and blood, and was extremely strong. However, when he came to operate the industry, he could put precious goods in his own space. However, the goods of these dozen ox carts were different. There were too many things and it was too complicated. His space was not as big as Li Zhi, so he was placed outside to carry it in a ox cart. Once there were too many things, it was difficult for one person to take care of. He needed to hire some adventurers with some ability to help with transportation and care.

Although these adventurers are not strong, most of them are trained and have extremely exquisite fighting skills in the eyes of ordinary people. Some adventurers even have powerful abilities, no worse than the knights of the noble family. At this moment, this group of people are so panicked that they must have encountered a powerful monster that they cannot deal with.

Exx was immediately anxious. Even the lowest monsters among the monsters had extraordinary power and were not weak in destructive power. If you start to take action, if you have a slight impact on his convoy, these goods will be destroyed. Although the most precious goods were brought in the space by himself, these goods were only relatively cheap.

"It's okay, there are many monsters coming in this forest for some reason recently. Our guardian knights are cleaning up this forest. The monster that rushed out was just a fish caught. Look at this power, it's not lower than the second level, don't worry, sir." The captain comforted, and then suddenly shouted: "What is our duty?" He shouted, and the entire checkpoint answered "Guardian" at the same time.

As they answered, Exx suddenly felt something was wrong with the atmosphere. A force suddenly emerged from the checkpoint. The captain closed his eyes, as if he was talking to some force. Then, Ex saw a flag above the checkpoint flashing with a ray of light. The captain opened his eyes suddenly, and a ray of light echoed the flag on his body. The power on his body rose sharply. With a sudden roar, he turned into a giant wolf and ran towards the rear of the convoy at an extremely fast speed.

"Brother, he is just an ordinary person, how can he have the power of the third level?" The wizard's perception was extremely powerful. Ariel's strength was not weak. How could he not tell that these people were ordinary people? Ax looked at the sword and shield flag and thought: "His power is not his own, it should be from that flag. This power is really powerful."

"A ordinary person can also have the power of the third level. I heard that there are now two thousand people in the Guardian Knights, and it is still expanding rapidly, and it will be expanded to a scale of four thousand people. With such a power, the core force of the Hell Lords is not as good as this level. In the future, Winster's territory will be expanded to the Kingdom of Candras. In that case, there will only be more army. Such power, there will be more legendary fields of the Heradim Brotherhood, who can compete with it? The future shelter world will surely be the shelter world of the Heradim Brotherhood." This idea was just a revolving thing in my heart.

"Ariel, your temper and concepts will change in the future, otherwise you will get into trouble sooner or later, especially in this Winster territory. You will strictly abide by their order." Aix warned Ariel, who pouted at him, and didn't know if he had heard it. "Ariel, I won't talk about the wizard sanctions. Every ordinary soldier here can obtain third-level power at any time. Put away your wizard's arrogance." Ariel nodded.
