Chapter 3 The Attack on Ellington(1/2)
It is difficult for Fiona to understand Tang En's thoughts. In her opinion, it is something that a person is very proud of to have such powerful power, but Tang En obviously doesn't think so.
I'm afraid Tang En must have a very powerful enemy, so he was forced to hide his strength.
Tang En glanced at Fiona's goods and frowned and asked, "What should you do with these goods?"
Fiona was also in a dilemma. These goods were her last capital. She originally planned to pass through Ellington and then detour to Fort Caspami in the north to try her luck to see if she could turn over. As a result, everyone is dead now, and she is the only one left, and she can't take these things away no matter what.
Tang En asked, "Are you a businessman?"
"That's right!"
Fiona said proudly: "I am a member of the Jin Qiangwei family!"
"Jin Qiangwei Family..."
Tang En thought for a while before he remembered that in the background of the game, this was a huge chamber of commerce that accompanied the rise of the Irruth Empire. It was once explored throughout the entire Prandal, but unfortunately it has completely disappeared.
Fiona is probably the last member of the Golden Rose family.
"I think your situation is probably bad now. If that's the case, how about I hire you as the chief business consultant in Ellington?"
Tang En knew that the development of the territory was inseparable from various talents, and now he had no one else to use it. Since Fiona had the ability in this area, then find a way to keep her - and depending on her attitude, she might be happy to do so.
"I'm very honored!"
Fiona was indeed very surprised. This was probably her only chance now!
Although Ellington is not a prosperous place, with a lord who is still so powerful, will Ellington still be what he is now in the future?
"Since that's the case, then put your goods here first."
After Tang En finished speaking, the mage raised the goods and put them all into his backpack.
"Space Equipment!"
Fiona was shocked again, but then she thought that although space equipment was very precious, Tang En was such a powerful magician, and it was not surprising that he had space equipment, so she quickly accepted it.
Tang En reminded again: "From now on, I am just an ordinary alchemist, do you understand?"
"I understand, Lord Lord."
"Just call me Don Eun."
"That's too rude."
"Okay, wake up the driver, it's really hard for him to faint for so long."
After waking up the coachman, the coachman was naturally puzzled by the disappearance of the bandits, but he didn't ask much. He was already very grateful to be able to save his life, so Don and Fiona took the carriage and continued to set off for Ellington.
In the carriage, the dull atmosphere made Fiona uneasy. She looked at Tang En, who was silent and silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking: "Lord, why do you want to buy Ellington as your territory?"
Tang En opened his eyes and asked with great interest: "Why is this problem?"
"Because Ellington is large in area and is the largest existing territory in Irrus, it is relatively remote and adjacent to the border. The Lady forest and the Ambres Mountains next to it limit the development space of Ellington. Even Caspami in the north is a better choice than Ellington."
"Caspami is good, but Ellington is not as bad as you said," Don shrugged. "At least, in my opinion, the rich mineral and natural resources in Ellington are not available in other territories."
Fiona smiled bitterly and said, "Lord, you are really optimistic. I'm afraid you won't be so happy when you get to the place."
“The poorer you are, the more room you have to play your value, right?”
“…I try my best!”
Tang En smiled without saying a word, and soon Fiona would know why he was so confident.
In the eyes of the indigenous people, Ellington is naturally a very remote place, but it is different in the eyes of the players. Indigenous people don’t know what is in the Ambris Mountains, but Tang En knew clearly that the main city of the dwarfs and dwarfs is in the Ambris Mountains. In the emerald forest to the southwest, there is the royal city of the elves, the Elf Crown. It won’t take long to go east to be the main city of Yarinks, which can be called a transportation hub.
In addition, Ellington's territory is rich in mineral resources, forest resources, and large areas of undeveloped land. In the game, there are many players of various races who trade here, which is an absolute treasure land.
Of course, games are games, reality is reality. Tang En cannot guarantee that this world is exactly the same as the game world. Now he can only move forward carefully while exploring.
After crossing the last hill, the front suddenly became clear, a silver-white ribbon passed through the plain and flowed into the distance, which was the Emerald River flowing out of the Ambris Mountains, next to it was the Lady Forest, and a small town was located in the upper reaches of the river, adjacent to the forest.
There is Ellington Town.
That's right, in the huge territory of Ellington, its administrative center is such a small town.
Fiona glanced at Don Eun, trying to see some disappointment in his face, but she only saw excitement and happiness.
Don N noticed Fiona's gaze and smiled, "I wonder why I am so happy?"
Fiona nodded a little embarrassedly.
Tang En thought for a moment and smiled: "I'll tell you a story."
Fiona immediately focused.
"In a distant country, an ordinary person once accidentally received a huge sum of 50,000 gold coins."
"Fifty thousand gold coins!"
Fiona was amazed: "For an ordinary person, it's really a huge sum of money, and then what? Did he use this money to do business and then become a noble?"
"Someone asked him, what are you going to do with these 50,000 gold coins? The man said he planned to buy a house in the suburbs of Wangcheng and pay a down payment."
Fiona was stunned for a moment: "Buy a house? Down payment"
Tang En continued, "Someone continued to ask, what about the rest? The rest? The man said, the rest will be returned slowly."
Fiona was confused and obviously couldn't understand.
Tang En sighed, looking careless: "Oh, a world where you can't understand the cold jokes, life is so lonely as snow..."
Fiona lowered her head awkwardly. In front of Tang En, she felt very ignorant.
Tang En looked out the window, and under the calm surface, he was excited inside.
land!
Such a large area of land, the endless land, belongs to him!
Here, he is the king of this land!
You can let him splash his pen and ink and display his ideas to the fullest!
Don't worry about anyone!
"But the working and rest time of Ellington residents is really a bit strange. They started cooking so early."
Tang En looked at the smoke from cooking fires above the town and wanted to scratch his head.
Fiona looked closely and was shocked: "That's not smoke! It's the town's fire!"
Tang En was stunned: "What!?"
Fiona immediately urged the driver to speed up, and said, "The smoke from cooking can't turn black. And seeing that there are many people gathering around the town, something must have happened!"
Don't suddenly became furious: "Before I took over my territory, someone came to make trouble!"
Fiona hesitated for a moment and said, "Ellington is too remote, so the public security is very bad. There are often bandits and robbers..."
"Where is the current lord? Where is the sheriff? Where is the militia? Are they all ate shit??"
Fiona sighed, there were some things she couldn't say too straightforwardly, and when she arrived at Ellington, Tangen would know the real situation.
Soon the carriage arrived near Ellington, but the coachman said he would not approach him anymore. After Donn paid the car money to dismiss the coachman, he walked towards Ellington with a gloomy face with Fiona.
Before I could enter the town, I could hear howlings and those unscrupulous and crazy laughter from the town.
"Child! My child!"
"Hahaha-Go to die! Gold coins! Food! Women! They are all ours!"
Fiona looked pale and subconsciously hid behind Tang En. Looking at the man in front of her, she felt a little relieved, knowing that with him, she would definitely protect herself from being safe.
After all, he is such a powerful magician!
The ground of the town was filled with blood and internal organs, and the residents stared at Tang En, as if condemning him for coming so late.
Tang En took a deep breath, and the smoke choked his lungs and his eyes were slightly wet: "Damn these robbers."
In one sentence, these people were sentenced to death.
"Follow me."
Tang En picked up a long stick on the ground that residents used to resist and slowly walked towards the center of the town.
"Hmm!? And the rebels?"
The moment the sound rang out, a bandit suddenly rushed out next to him, and a cold light slashed at Tang En's neck!
clang!
Tang En grabbed the sword with his left hand naked.
The bandit was stunned.
Empty hand?
Catching a sword?
He is fine!?
"Go to die--"
To be continued...
