"Is this place really ruled by dragons? How does it seem that the internal situation of the northern countries seems to be good?" in a tavern called "barbecue and wine" in Kashan City, a line of outsiders dressed like adventurers put down their wine glasses.


    The speaker was a woman named Messiah Darrow. Her professional habits made the thief''s eyes extremely sharp. It seemed that she had inadvertently seen and understood everything around her.


    Although she is not young, she still has a little freckles on her nose. Because she always chews tobacco leaves day and night, her teeth have been dyed bluff dark red.


    "It''s really good, at least better than those evil dragon territories we''ve seen before."


    Byff''s voice was not loud. It just came into the ears of his companions. After a period of tossing and turning, they had arrived in the northern countries and entered Rhine from the laconic kingdom. They planned to rest in Kashan city for the time being.


    Drilling low and dusty attics and stepping over narrow old stairs, they entered this depressed Tavern - which is generally the easiest place to get information according to previous experience.


    The hall was not big, but it was well ventilated. A row of yellow wood wine barrels stood in the corner. Although the door was always open, it was still very hot to tell the truth. The waiter of the tavern turned around with a barbecue fork. The thief Darrow poured out black beer from the barrel and chewed tobacco in his mouth.


    "Hey, man, please get us something to eat." their companion greeted. There was no one on the long table except thirteen of them, not even a harp singer.


    After waiting for a while, the waiter brought up the bread, stew soup and the whole roast fork on a plate and put it away. When he was about to turn and leave, Darrow pulled a servant''s corner and stuffed a golden bean into his hand.


    The thief boldly looked at the attendant''s face and asked in a tone of almost questioning who the rulers of the northern countries were, where there were dragons near here, what news they had recently, and so on. A series of questions like firecrackers made people less responsive.


    After half a sound, the waiter realized what she had asked, looked at them with a suspicious look, and almost exclaimed, "are you outsiders?"


    "Why, don''t we look like foreign adventurers?"


    The thief was surprised. He looked down at his clothes and then said, "Hey, boy, you haven''t answered my question yet."


    The minor attendant''s pupils trembled slightly, as if he remembered something terrible. The young man''s lips moved back and forth. Finally, he put the golden bean back on the table: "I don''t know -" he didn''t say a word and shook his head quickly: "I can''t say."


    "Ah, I said -" the thief was a little anxious. He got up and was grabbed by byff.


    "Don''t get into trouble."


    Baifu educated the new members, then picked up the golden beans and stuffed them into the arms of the young people again. At the same time, he asked a safe question: "friends, tell me about what you can say, for example, why is the business of this tavern so bleak? And where can we find out what we want?"


    The gentle tone made the waiter''s face look better. He thought and said, "our business is not easy to do recently, and there are fewer and fewer people, but you can go to elegy tavern. I heard that there are many people there."


    "Thank you."


    Byff politely thanked him, wrote down the name in his heart, then cut the roasted brown meat slices with hot soup from the fork in front of him, and then stroked the fat mushrooms from the other roast fork, stained with onions and pepper, and began to eat with black beer.


    Except Darrow, the other dragon hunters were not in a hurry. They slowly enjoyed the taste of Beidi characteristic food. Until they were full of food and wine, byff smacked his mouth, stood up from the Dun wooden stool and picked up the long cloth bag leaning against the corner of the table.


    "Let''s go."


    He said: "first go to the place to see if you can get something useful, and then go to the Rhine capital."


    Following the guidance of the attendants, the Dragon hunters began to walk towards the elegy tavern. It was silent all the way. However, with the winding road and the approaching distance, the flow of people on both sides gradually became more and more, at least not as dead as before.


    Just then, the clang of armor, the neighing of horses and the splashing of rain came from the road, which made them look frozen.


    "Cavalry," whispered byff. Adventurers who have experienced the old way can read enough information only by their voice. They are dragon hunters and are more proficient in this way.


    At the same time, Baifu carried the long cloth bag behind him without leaving a trace. Before finding the black dragon Caesar, they didn''t want to cause any trouble and attract the slightest attention. It would be best if they could avoid all eyes and ears.


    The sound of horses'' hoofs gradually approached, and the Dragon Hunter turned around and saw the group of people and horses marching in columns. The cavalry were fully armed and stepping across the small mud puddle with cold faces.


    Byff and his companions avoided and let these guys go first. The cavalry looked a little different from the army they had met before. There was no flag. Even in the city, their faces were covered in overlapping face armor and could not be seen clearly.


    However, when passing them, the cavalry in ferocious black armor suddenly stopped.


    "Outsiders?"


    The leader turned his horse''s head, his sharp eyes shrouded in his visor crossed the faces of byff and his companions, and his words were full of condescending meaning: "is there any proof that the border forces have passed the inspection?"


    "Of course, my Lord, we are adventurers from zedi."


    Mr. Da tried to answer the question first and laugh in the heart. The little place actually learned what border checks and registration were made by the Empire, but it was unable to supervise the operation and implement the registered residence registration system.


    As long as you walk through the front door, a person can swagger in.


    The cavalry captain stared at the piece of paper they took out and gave it back to the thieves. It was just a routine inspection of outsiders during patrol. The black shirts didn''t pay much attention, leaving a sentence "you have to abide by the rules of the north", so they rode away.


    The Dragon hunters with excellent psychological quality did not have any emotional fluctuations. They continued to move forward. After a lazy bend, they saw their destination and Elegy tavern, but there were also four soldiers in black armor.


    But it didn''t seem like the same group of people. Byff judged that there were no horses around them.


    He took a casual look and found that the soldiers were on guard duty and would not block visitors, so he had nothing to worry about. He carelessly stepped into the tavern in the center of Kashan city.


    Byff was an adventurer when he was young. Now he has become a well-known adventurer. He has traveled all over the world in recent years and has seen countless pubs everywhere. However, he rarely sees pubs full of people, warm atmosphere but not noisy.


    "Well played, but I have the king of black wings."


    "War roars."


    "Sorry, fireball, my magic will tear you to pieces."


    ……


    As soon as he entered the door, a voice came into Bayer. He was confused. What happened? What are the customers of this pub talking about?
