Above the Seven Towers

The Golden Tail Bird Tavern is located near the river bank in the civilian area of ​​Wangdu. Looking out of the window, you can see a house in the noble area opposite, and you can clearly see the Royal Magic Tower further away. In the civilian area, this is a decent tavern with river views, but because there is a stone bridge away from the noble area, the road at the door is not very open, so there are not many people who usually go outside the door.

Coupled with the heavy snow in Wangdu tonight, almost no pedestrians were seen on the road.

But at this time, there were three people, two tall, one short, walking from the far street junction. They were wearing dark cloaks, their clothes, heads and faces were hidden in the dark. There are not many passersby like civilians. different. It's just that if you look closely at their figure, you will find that they walk more upright than the ordinary people who are running for three meals a day.

Passing through the windows of a house, the light of the oil lamp illuminates one of them. The person in this cloak is Xiao Chen.

"Thousands of years later, the land price here must be expensive and expensive. The hydrophilic platform, exclusive river views, and the center of the king capital are amazing." Xiao Chen's words can make people appreciate the style of the Middle Ages around him. Play in seconds. But it also seemed to dispel some of the cold, dark atmosphere around.

"But what's so good here, a gust of wind comes from the river with a smell." The little man reached out and pulled the cloak away, revealing a small face, turned out to be Katerina.

"Don't you think the river view is beautiful?"

Catalina shook her head straight: "There are many people living by this river, everything is poured into the water, the water of this river is dirty. The houses on the river are not good, they are always tidal."

"Caterina Jr. seems to be a housekeeper. She didn't waste her mind on the sad spring and fall. Roger, do you say that?"

Roger on the other side smiled bitterly. He was used to the strange words of Xiao Chen. He said implicitly: "Sir, stay in the pub for a while, please don't say these strange words, otherwise it will attract the attention of the mice."

"No, I'm better than you. There are crazy guys in the tavern. Brother Xiao's words are not the craziest." Katarina interjected.

"Relax. Just kidding. Anyway, you can't imagine such a position, how valuable it is in our hometown." Xiao Chen shrugged. "I didn't expect you, a high-level fighter, plus me, a mid-level mage, It would be a hooligan horror. "

"The two of us are foreigners at a glance. We still have to be very careful in this kind of place." Roger said seriously. Poisoned wine was put down. "

"Brother Roger, you are really a competent bodyguard. You are best at sweeping Brother Xiao's interest." Katerina said, "Relax, no one can pit you with me."

In the speaking room, the three of them walked to the door of the tavern.

Xiao Chen looked up at the golden-tailed bird on the signboard and secretly hoped that everything would go well today, followed Roger into the tavern.

As soon as he entered the tavern, a burst of heat came, followed by a variety of food, alcohol and human breath. There are not many people in the tavern, but the voices of people of various colors give a lively feeling.

The tavern is long and has two floors. The bar is in the middle of the room, and the business area is divided into two parts. Most of the guests are dressed in ordinary clothes. Some people sat at the bar and laughed loudly, while others gathered around the dining table and enjoyed themselves.

Xiao Chen released a spirit of investigative spirit magic, seeing some faint little light group, did not find any hidden master.

"All are ordinary people, not even the average mercenary level." Roger glanced around quickly.

Catalina came forward and greeted the waitress. The three of them sat in a corner with less light, ordered three glasses of ale and some bread sausages, and began to wait.

When the food was served, Roger and Caterina began to eat. Xiao Chen had no appetite. He tapped on the greasy table with his fingers, thinking about something.

Katrina took a few bites of the bread and threw it back on the plate: "Eating food at home makes the food outside taste bad."

Roger glanced at the half-section bag that Katarina dropped and reached into his mouth.

"How do you eat my leftovers?" Katerina asked.

"With Karanda taking care of you, you have never really been hungry. But when I was hungry, when I was under siege, when I was in a slave camp, I was really hungry. I have since sworn, No waste of food, "Roger said.

Caterina glanced at Xiao Chen and saw that he was still thinking about things, blushing and said to Roger: "I'm sorry."

Xiao Chen is actually clear about the behavior of the two of them. As part of distracting cultivation, he can now do all he can do with his heart. Even after vigorously thinking about the next important meeting, he still left a subconsciousness to observe the movement around him.

It was just that Roger did a good job, and Katerina realized her mistakes, so he didn't say anything. Lest the thin-skinned girl be embarrassed.

But Caterina's move also reflected some problems. Now with the strength of the school, not only their own people, but many locals who have joined them one after another, have begun to have higher and higher requirements for the quality of life and material enjoyment.

This is both a driving force and a cause of decline. Many of the lifestyle habits they brought from modern times are actually a burden of development, consuming resources that could have been used for construction. However, at this stage, they are far from reaching the time when they can enjoy life with peace of mind.

Perhaps, more people should come out to see how they live in the world.

Time passed quickly in Xiao Chen's cranky thoughts.

They waited for about half an hour, and the tavern door was pushed open again. A middle-aged man also wearing a cloak came in. In Xiao Chen's field of vision, he had no light clusters at all, and it seemed that he used some kind of hidden equipment. The middle-aged man walked to the edge of the stairs, turned his head and looked at Xiao Chen, then walked up the stairs.

"You are waiting here, it seems that he wants to chat with me alone." Xiao Chen got up and said.

Roger and Caterina knew that the following conversation might not be suitable for any bystanders, so they didn't move in their chairs, but they each prepared their weapons and watched Xiao Chen walk up the stairs.

Xiao Chen was at the stairs and saw the middle-aged man walking to a corner. He took off his chair and sat down, taking the hood off. He gave a few orders to the maid, then looked at him with a smile.

He walked over, pulled away the chair opposite and sat down. He stretched out a hand and said softly: "I'm coming?"

The other party made a please action. So Xiao Chen released a soundproof magic. Then he said, "Long time no see, Roland Priest."

"Long time no see, His Excellency Xiao Chen."
