Chapter 518: Chapter 383: The Peculiar Land_2

From this it can be seen that behind this Giant Axe General Burt, there is obviously a past unknown to others.”

“Lord’s analysis is very reasonable.”

A cool voice sounded, and it was still Linda with her long hair tied behind her head, leaving only two strands of hair hanging down from both sides of her ears.

And then she asked, “What should we do next?”

“At this stage, our three goals for coming here are to solve the problems about the Azure Pterosaur and White Jade Ore. Both of them have been resolved successfully.

The last one is to learn more about Giant Axe General Burt.

Like what we did with Joshua before, we should make full preparations to ultimately win him over.”

With a slight nod to Linda, Leo Ray slowly retracted his gaze and replied, “However, as you and Kombu said before.

This small country located in the mountains is quite mysterious with many illogical aspects.

Moreover, we are not sure whether these things are related to Giant Axe General Burt.

So, our next move will naturally be centered on Burt.

Meanwhile, we will investigate these strange places.”

“Lord, you are absolutely right. When I was staying here temporarily before, I didn’t realize any significant differences between this place and other regions. freёwebnoѵel.com

Looking at the current situation, it is indeed quite strange.”

At this moment, it seemed as if Linda’s slender eyebrows were about to furrow together on her fair face, as she thoughtfully said, “My Lord, in that case.

Then, let us go back to the inn we just visited and investigate.

After all, the strange things I encountered before happened there, so perhaps we might find some new clues.”

“That’s exactly what I was thinking.” With a slight nod, Leo Ray’s dark eyes moved and he continued to observe the bustling streets around him.

Just then, there was a sudden commotion at the street corner ahead.

Peering through the crowded crowd, Leo Ray noticed.

It was a young mercenary from the caravan that entered the city earlier, who looked completely at a loss, surrounded by a group of local residents who seemed to be very angry.

Then, the short and fat merchant who had brought them into the city squeezed through the crowd, and after a bit of joking,

only then did he pull the still bewildered young mercenary from the angry crowd into the doorway of the nearby inn.

However, as the scene of the incident was far from them, and the street was very noisy,

they couldn’t hear what exactly was being said.

“My Lord, it seems that the young mercenary has done something to arouse the resentment of the local residents,” Linda said thoughtfully as the flow of people returned to normal.

“It seems so.”

With a faint nod, Leo Ray opened Mind Talk to Linda and to Taylor, Gideon Black, Scarlett, Bianca White, Amelia, and Abigail, who were hiding under the Invisibility Cloak nearby. He said, “Alright, let’s go back to the inn and have a look.”

So, they went straight back to the inn, where they saw the fat merchant speaking serious words to the young mercenary in the spacious lobby.

On the other side, seeing Leo Ray and the others enter, the fat merchant immediately came to greet them, his face full of smiles. “Your Excellency, you are back.

I have already booked the room for you. It is the most luxurious large suite in the inn, located at the end of the second floor.

It can not only accommodate the two of you, but even ten people easily!”

Once the words were said, the short fat merchant handed an ancient brass room key to Leo Ray.

“Well done.” With a slight nod, Leo Ray took the key and pulled the fat merchant to one side.

Then he asked, “What happened on the street just now?”

“So Your Excellency saw it.” The fat merchant’s greasy face was full of helplessness, replying, “It’s the new mercenary’s fault for not understanding the rules around here.

He almost got attacked by the local residents, you know, the customs here are quite simple but also very fierce.””Oh?” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows slightly, asking, “Actually, this is our first time coming to this kingdom in the mountains.

We heard that the people here don’t like outsiders, so we joined your caravan temporarily. What are the taboos here?”

“Your Excellency, you’ve asked the right person.”

The short, fat businessman pulled Leo Ray into the inn’s lobby and sat down in a secluded corner on the sofa.

Then he replied, “I am different from most traveling merchants who occasionally come here.

I am a professional merchant who runs a route between the Crystal Kingdom and Coldflame.

As a result, I do know more about this place than others.”

At this point, a cautious expression appeared on the middle-aged, short and fat businessman’s greasy face. After looking left and right,

he lowered his voice and continued, “I must say, compared to other places, this place is quite unusual.”

“Oh?” Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and continued to listen.

“Take that rookie mercenary, for example.

He was attacked by local residents because he took out a few Silver Dragons to pay for the local specialty.”

At this moment, the short, fat businessman half-covered his mouth with his hand before speaking.

“I see.”

Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but reveal a pondering expression and thought to himself, “Before this, Kombu did mention

that the locals here only use Gold Dragons for transactions.

When dealing with outsiders, they prefer to give more than they would accept Silver Dragons or Copper Dragons as change.

As for internal transactions, they divide the gold coins into several parts and use them as silver and copper coins.

It must be said that this method of using currency is indeed quite unique.”

Thinking about this, Leo Ray didn’t hesitate to ask again, “Why do the locals here do this?”

“That’s one of the peculiarities of this place.”

The short, fat businessman lowered his voice even more and whispered, “I’ve asked several of my local partners the same question,

but not only did I get no answers, I was also kindly greeted twice.

If it weren’t for the fact that there are few foreign merchants here and competition isn’t that fierce, I would have quit long ago.”

At this point, the short, fat businessman seemed to recall some unpleasant experiences and couldn’t help but shiver.

Then he continued, “And, I don’t know if you’ve noticed,

but the architectural style here is also very unique. It’s almost entirely angular, with no arches or rounded structures, making it look very rigid.

When I was young, I traveled through many countries but have never seen such a square and strict architectural style.”

“I’ve noticed that too.” Leo Ray nodded slightly and couldn’t help but look thoughtful.

It has to be said that even in the Elf Relics or the domain of the Winged Race, he had never seen such architectural styles before.

“It seems there are quite a few oddities here.

From this, it’s clear that there might indeed be a hidden, unknown secret here.

It must be said that this mysterious kingdom located within the mountain range is becoming more and more interesting.”

Upon realizing this, Leo Ray took a moment to ponder, rubbing his chin,

and then asked the middle-aged businessman, “Are there any other noteworthy places here besides this?”

On the other side, the middle-aged, short, and fat businessman thought for a while, touching the back of his head, and then shook his head, “Sorry, Your Excellency, I don’t know about any other places.”

At this point, the middle-aged, short, and fat businessman suddenly seemed to remember something and his eyes lit up, “That’s right, Your Excellency, when I first came here,

I also talked with some local partners about Giant Axe General Burt.

However, I found something strange.”

“Oh?” Upon hearing this, Leo Ray immediately showed a keen interest and continued to listen.
