Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 173 Chaos
"How about it, you fool, I told you a long time ago that Thorne will definitely win this battle, and that lunatic Albert is not my elder brother's opponent at all, you still don't believe it, you are dumbfounded now. "

Among the crowd of onlookers, Ashmo, who was walking with a kobold as a dog, glanced at Albert the Storm Lord who was stepped on by Thorne in the battle field, and said proudly to the people around him: "Hurry up and close your surprised mouths, and accept the bet."

"Bah! Now I'm licking my face again to recognize my elder brother. What kind of bullshit storm lord, I have saved half a year's savings at the expense of you, an orphan. It's over, this winter is very difficult."

A warrior player in a simple leather armor took out three gold coins and threw them to Ashmo, saying, "However, today I can see that this madman who is usually arrogant and domineering in the town is beaten so badly, I feel inexplicable." Feel very comfortable."

"The irascible brother Albert fought against the lonely ranger Thorne. It turned out that the lonely ranger was better. It is really surprising. In the lower city, finally someone can subdue him in terms of force." Another elf player looked back and said Exclaimed.

"I'm still a lonely ranger. I didn't see that after going out for a while and then coming back, there is an extra beautiful woman by my side. Now there are two of us. Single people like us are incomparable. I will have a show someday. Go on an adventure."

Ashmo took the three gold coins handed over by the warrior player unceremoniously, then wiped the dirt on the surface with his sleeve, put it in his pocket with satisfaction, and said:
"Your life is not going well, why don't you hurry up and join the guard team of Waterfall Town? In addition to the basic salary of two gold coins per month, those who have been employed for one year can also share a permanent residence in Waterfall Town for free." How could the original residents have this kind of treatment, so don't pretend to be arrogant here, and lowering your proud head is the most correct choice."

"That must be a life flower. Let me work hard for them. I want to be beautiful." The warrior player curled his lips disdainfully: "When I save enough money, I will go to Seput City with the caravan in the spring of next year. With the current strength, wouldn't it be nice to find a job as a porter in the city and live a stable life?"

"Porter? What a great ideal. I'm different from you. When I get to Seput City, I'll find a way to work part-time as the priest of Tyr, the God of Justice, and retire in the temple." Another elf The player sneered and expressed his thoughts.

"Pastor pension? Naive child, your ideal is greater than mine." The warrior player joked, and then asked a little unexpectedly: "So, have you really decided to quit the guard team of Pushang Town? "

"What do you think, the humanoid creatures in the wilderness are almost using Pushang Town as a copy of the game, regardless of their strength, they will come to harass them every now and then. I have had enough of this precarious life." The elf player complained road.

"It seems that after the trade route between Pushang Town and Seput City was opened up, it was the first to provide convenience for you salty fish." Ashmo listened to the two chatting, while wiping the filth on the gold coins, Casually complained.

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed a falcon flying across the sky, and his expression was startled, so he immediately got up and ran out of the town.

……

In the battle field between Albert and Thorne.

Thorn didn't care about the bloodshot angry eyes of the other party, and stepped on his chest, making him unable to stand up and fight back.

At this time, Albert looked in a state of distress. The enchanted armor was full of traces of being burned by flames, and the places that were not wrapped by the enchanted armor were full of burns from various flames.

Moreover, because of the aftereffects of the berserk, he fell into a weak state.

However, even though the irritable Albert couldn't get up when Thorne stepped on his chest, he was still desperately struggling to resist, crackling lavender arcs constantly surging around him.

Thorne felt the damage caused by the electric arc, causing a faint numbness from the soles of his feet. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a ray of light flashed from the wooden holy emblem held in his palm.

——"One ring of magic: resist energy damage (lightning)!"

The almost invisible protective force field quickly enveloped Thorne's whole body, and the electric arcs jumping out from Albert's body suddenly did not pose a threat, and they were all isolated from the energy barrier.

"Don't you give up resistance? Our storm lord Albert!" Looking at Albert in such a state of distress, but still struggling crazily, Thorne couldn't help but exert a little force on the soles of his feet, and the long sword in his hand immediately fell across him. on the neck.

Noticing Thorne's cold gaze and the pain from the hot flame on the dark red blade from his neck, Albert snorted coldly, turned his head to give up struggling, and lay motionless on the ground in silence.

"Brother Thorne, it's just a sparring session, and Albert has already paid the price for his arrogance, let him go, don't embarrass him too much." In this deadlocked situation, Torvi left Come over and persuade Thorne.

Thorn glanced at Tolvi, then glanced down at Albert who remained silent, and didn't say much, but chose to withdraw his foot from the other's chest.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Albert, who was under less pressure, suddenly stood up, roared angrily, and the spear in his hand suddenly jumped out with crackling arcs, and smashed Thorne on the head with all his strength.

"You're still so immature and can't afford to lose, I knew you would do this." Thorne glanced at the other party without any surprises, and unhurriedly threw out the words that he had condensed and hidden in his sleeve. Shadow rope.

I saw the rope in his hand lightly throwing towards Albert, and this rope made entirely of shadow energy wrapped around his body at an extremely fast speed.

The cold shadow energy immediately paralyzed the weak Albert, and the raised spear froze in midair as if the pause button had been pressed.

——"One-ring spell: Sleep!"

At the same time, Torvi, who was standing next to Thorne, had just finished preparing the spell, when a flash of magic flashed, Albert lay on the ground again and fell into a coma.

Seeing Albert under control, Torway smiled awkwardly at Thorn, and then motioned to Chris, who came over, to take him away quickly.

Seeing this, Thorn thought, and the shadow rope wrapped around Albert's body immediately turned into a little light and dissipated in the air.

"I hope you don't take what happened today to your heart. After all, this is just an irrelevant exchange of ideas. I will discipline my younger brother well when I go back." Seeing the rope disappearing from Albert's body, Torvi felt apologetic. Said to Thorne calmly.

"Don't worry, I know Albert's personality quite well, and I won't keep it in mind. I just hope that he won't cause me unnecessary trouble in the future, and that it's enough if he wants to go to the city." Thorne held the long sword Slowly into the sheath, said calmly.

Although Albert believed in the Lord of Storms of the chaotic evil camp, which caused his camp to be inclined towards chaotic evil, but his irritable and irritable character did not kill innocent people indiscriminately among the player groups uncontrollably, otherwise Fallstown can't accommodate such a person.

However, this guy was always full of hostility towards the half-elves in the upper town, completely unaware of who is the real owner of this place and who is the outsider who is kindly taken in in the entire town of Falls, this is what he can't see. The main reason for being used to Albert.

"I promised you a long time ago that that kind of thing will never happen, so you can rest assured." Torvi looked relieved, and then turned and left together with Chris who was supporting Albert.

"Are you okay?" Andrina walked to Thorn's side and asked with concern.

"It's okay." Noticing the other party's gaze, Thorn relaxed his tense expression, and said, shaking his arm that was still slightly numb.

"Is this the Fallstown you described?" Andrina and Thorn stood side by side, looking at the noisy crowd that was gradually leaving.

"Why, what's the problem?" Thorne heard the inexplicable meaning revealed in Anderina's words, and looked at her pretty face in a daze, and asked subconsciously.

"Chaos." Andrina pondered for a moment, not knowing how to express it, and finally spit out two words lightly. After thinking for a while, she added:

"There is no comparison between the people in Waterfall Town and the people in Twilight Town. In Twilight Town, when I saw them gathering to deal with the wolf tribe, it gave me a serious and dignified feeling. There was a sense of danger. A sense of urgency, a sense of crisis from the heart.

But here, most people give me the feeling of a kind of indifference, and a kind of mentality that has nothing to do with themselves. This is not at all like a person who survived the tragedy half a year ago. The mentality that people who come down should have, but the half-elves in the upper city seem more real. "

"Even you can see that the atmosphere of Fallstown half a year ago is the same as that of Twilight Town, so after leaving for half a year, when I stepped into Fallstown again, I can clearly feel everything here. It's all changed, not only for the half-elves in the Upper Town, but also for the people of the Lower Town."

Thorne was silent for a moment after listening to Andrina's narration, then looked in the direction of the Emerald River and continued:

"The reason why the people in Twilight Town are in that situation is mainly because they have no way out, and all around them are threats from humanoid creatures. It is precisely because they are isolated and helpless that they are forced to temporarily suppress To live with internal contradictions, they have to unite closely to resist foreign enemies together.

But the current Pushang Town, about [-] kilometers to the east is a prosperous port city: Seput City, within the sphere of influence of Seput City, the closest to Pushang Town is the Twin Towers Town, the distance between the two towns is less than [-] kilometers, which belongs to the original resident forces, so they have many different choices.

From the people coming and going on the street, it can be found that the road to Sept City has been opened, and most of the humanoid tribes entrenched there have been driven and eliminated. Players want to leave Fallstown to go to other The place became relatively easier, which caused them not to stick to the waterfall blindly.

Moreover, Waterfall Town suffered from the joint invasion of hobgoblins and lizardmen half a year ago, and almost fell into a state of semi-destruction, making it even more difficult for people to feel a sense of belonging to this town.

Nowadays, except for those original founders who still have inseparable feelings for them, other outsiders are no longer so persistent. Even if they fall, at worst, they can just change places to survive. The world is so big, there is always a suitable place for them , This is the difference between having a retreat and no retreat.

If Winter City suddenly becomes a lawful city suitable for our development one day, then soon, Twilight Town will gradually degenerate into what Fallshang Town is today.In the final analysis, there is nothing in Pushang Town that they are worth protecting with their lives. "

The current players have been adapting to this cruel foreign world for a year, and those who can't adapt have already disappeared into the dust, and those who survived have more or less their own way of survival.

Players in Twilight Town may have no way out, so they will desperately resist when faced with the invasion of humanoid creatures.

But in Pushang Town, as long as they walk along the Twin Towers Town, they can go all the way to Sept City, giving them many different choices. This is the root cause of the change in Pushang Town.

Although the road leading to Seput City has been opened up, and many players from other places have been injected into Waterfall Town, no matter what happens, there are two sides. Similarly, there are also many players who originally lived in Waterfall Town. Leave and go elsewhere.

The current crisis facing Pushang Town is not only from the outside, but the cohesion of the internal staff is also the most troublesome issue for the two lords in the lower city. After all, internal fighting is something that is engraved in the bones of human beings. Where there are people, there will be conflicts.

And they manage a group of people who have almost no care in this world.

After listening to Thorne's analysis, Andelina fell into a brief thought, and after going on like this for a while, she looked at Thorne and said, "The lower town of Falls Town is too messy, I don't want to participate in this trip." In muddy water."

"This is your own choice, and I have no right to interfere with you." Thorne replied without thinking.

If he had just seen Anderina's strength back then, he would have had the idea of ​​wooing her to help him defend Pushang Town together.

But when he really brought Anderina to this small town and saw such a complicated and chaotic situation, even he himself felt a headache, not knowing what to do, how could he let Anderina Outsiders get involved.

"Then what are your plans for the future?" Thorn was silent for a while, and finally asked the doubts in his heart.

"Plan?" Andelina subconsciously murmured to herself. After thinking for a while, she smiled at Thorn: "I plan to live in seclusion in that tower from now on."
