After walking along the road covered with raw stones for a while, they turned to the dark, crooked path and entered the slums in the elves. The elves of Atas have become barbaric, violent and cunning after countless generations of massacre. Their light green or light blue eyes are still the remains left by the halfling reign. Now, the red sun slowly dyes the elves bloody pupils, and these pupils are staring at a man and a woman passing through the cracks of the window.

"Go here quickly, those elves are stupid and can do anything." Shatili did not have the consciousness of being a half-elves at all, and criticized the local residents mercilessly. "They even eat children, which is even more terrible than wild beasts in the desert. Mom said that they must not be deceived and eaten by elves."

"Okay, beautiful girl, I find you are quite good at using charm to influence others, but I am your friend, Shadili?" Zhao Mai spread his hands and looked at her, and then said, "If you have anything you want to ask, just tell me directly. I tell you the truth, and even if I don't want to say it or it's hard to say it, I will tell you directly and I won't lie to you."

Shadili's eyes lit up, she turned her head to look at Zhao Mai, and said, "Really? I trust you! What should I ask for the first question? Well, is your name really Mike?"

"I was born with a name not this, but my name here is Mike."

"Your approach is good. We need freedom and not to be slaves, so it's good to say goodbye to the past name."

"It's not like that, it's actually irrelevant." Zhao Mai signaled Shatili to be alert, then leaned over and picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it into the room next to him. Suddenly, a wailing sound came from inside, and then it became quiet.

"What happened just now? Are there enemies there?"

"Well, there is an elf peeping, and I feel malice. I think it's not that I have attracted their covetousness, but that's your appearance and dress. You are really dangerous and attractive, and it will cause a lot of extra trouble. Are you the same in normal times?" Zhao Mai said to Shatili: "I strongly recommend that you concentrate on being a mage, which is much more promising than being a beauty simply."

"Why, why?" Shatili kept asking, but Zhao Mai kept silent. The two of them were worried about the elves robbers who were ambushing, so they kept moving forward, passing through the elves as quickly as possible, and finally walked around to the place close to the outer city wall. There was a small square paved with stones. The merchants from other places entering Tyr City would first pass here, most of them chose to rest here, unload goods, and then contact their relationships in the city. There were very few pure merchants in Atas, and most of the merchants mentioned here were spies with caravan names, coming from other city-states to serve other witch kings. Of course, the Templars in Tyr City would also have their own spies and buy intelligence from these merchants. The desert is too vast, and any way to obtain information is worth protecting.

Therefore, even if the Witch King transferred a large number of slaves from other parts of the city, the place was not affected. In addition to intelligence considerations, Tyr City also needed an external window to convey false news and receive merchants by the way, so as to maintain the supply of building materials for the Temple Tower and introduce more gladiator slaves.

Unlike the darkness in other areas of the city, the square is bathed in the light of a bright yellow torch, giving people a rare feeling of warmth and comfort. In addition to the laughing taverns and busy cargo yards, several hotels and a gambling houses that work part-time in special services and a gambling house are also open day and night, and welcome guests at any time. The people, mainly humans and elves, lean on the walls of the house, look at the people coming and going with sharp eyes, and pass another day of late night, while the half-naked women wander around looking for companions.

The smell of cheap alcohol and perfume was emitting to cover up the scent of decay and scent. Shatili reached out and grabbed Zhao Mai's arm, pulling him into the hotel at the door decorated with pictures of drunk giants.

The woman Fengchen next to the gate reached out and pulled down her loose collar, revealing half of her chest; she gently bit one of her fingers with her teeth and made a seductive smile at Zhao Mai.

"Don't pay attention to her", Shadili slammed the door hard and almost hit the head of the reserved grain. The puppy shook his tail hard, not knowing how a creature as cute as herself would be affected by the fish.

After entering, a gray-skinned dwarf sat behind the bar, stirring a yogurt-like drink with a small wooden spoon. His head was completely bald, and his dark brown beard covered his mouth and entire neck.

Three drunken drinkers lay on the bar, looking more like merchants than slaves from their outfits. Sardili was about to speak when the dwarf waved her hand and pointed to the small door on the side. The half-elf woman smiled so hard that she showed her tiger teeth, and then tiptoed over.

Zhao Mai followed her all the time and came to this small room. There was no seat here. Putting a board that was wide from the wall can be used as a temporary table. The waiter can stand here, eat something and drink a glass of water, as a rare rest and enjoyment.

After a while, the dwarf came over with a tray, with two portions of rice in it. The sticky substances and hard bread cooked from the roots of the plant, a cup of turbid wine and two pieces of candy. Shatili blinked at Zhao Mai, who sighed and divided her two pieces of candy equally between the girl and the dog.

"What happened again this time?" the dwarf asked with concern. He didn't know Zhao Mai's identity, so it was hard to raise this question directly, so as not to "play" something Shatili was "playing" and the result was a flaw.

"I met two high-level sage warriors on the way, and I almost couldn't come back." When I heard this, the dwarf at least knew that Zhao Mai was a friend but not an enemy. Shatili threw the candy into her mouth, then raised her cup, and drank it dry in one gulp. She wiped her mouth, and her eyelashes jumped. "I want to introduce him into the organization."

The dwarf almost dropped the tray in his hand to the ground. He looked outside nervously, but fortunately everyone was either sleeping or muttering to the wine glass. No one turned his attention to this side for a moment. "Are you crazy? Can you say such words casually? There are spies everywhere now."

"By the way, how many people have been arrested now?"

"The slaves in the entire city of Tyr have almost been captured and sent to the construction site to work. I'm afraid the station area will be almost impossible to save. Do you know that there is a serious shortage of manpower in the farmland area, and this year's famine is a foregone conclusion. The iron mine area has also begun to stop work, and slaves have been escorted here one after another, even at night. It is absolutely crazy, so it will do this."

This refers to the Witch King, and Zhao Mai guessed it immediately.

"Don't expect it to go crazy. It's even more outrageous than the desert outside turning into an ocean." Zhao Mai shook his head and gave her his drink amid Shatili's anticipated gaze. He sniffed the food with his nose. It tasted pretty good, with salt and spices inside, so he picked up the spoon and started siping.

"It seems you know something." The dwarf pulled his pants' legs out of the mouth of the reserved food, looked at the puppy's eyes and sighed: "Don't worry, I will find you something to eat, don't bite, this is my favorite pants." He looked at Zhao Mai carefully with those black eyes, and then said to Shatili: "I'll put the curtain down in a while. You can set off when you hear me cough."

"Yeah!" Shatili replied with a smile.

The dwarf left with two empty cups and let the curtain at the door of the small compartment. Shatili held a mysterious smile on her face, and she was humming while eating.

Zhao Mai thought about it, squatted down and knocked on the wall with his hands until he found that there was a board that had a significantly different sound. The smile on Shatili's face turned into surprise, "How did you know?"

"You should focus on being a promising profession of mage. Jobs such as spy scouts and spies are not suitable for you."

At this moment, the hotel door was pushed open suddenly, and the dwarf also coughed rapidly. Shadili wanted to go out and see what was happening, but Zhao Mai reached out to stop him. Looking at Zhao Mai's gently shaking his head, Shadili bit her lip, then turned her head to open the secret door on the wall.
