This is the truth, if the elves are also suffering from famine, then humans will not be able to get food if they attack, so it is better to go the normal way first

The queen finally breathed a sigh of relief, she was almost convinced, and was almost ready to give this order—as for whether she would go to the guillotine in the future, the strange magic warrior on the other side was right. I am not defeated, who can judge me?

"Then please."

"Let's go!"

"Wait, don't you even have a send-off meal?"

Newell, don't add to the confusion, do you really want to eat fish soup with fancy decorations

Er... well, you're right. Xiaoxiao complained and was dragged away by Ciri.

Brother—Bai Shizao

Chapter 230

The process of leaving the royal capital was a little easier, mainly because although Xiaoxiao didn’t eat anything, she also added a little new weight to Cornelia’s famine. was taken away.

Whether it is a dragon or a human, they don't have the leisure to worry about the life and death of humans in another world, especially since they did this shit themselves, and it belongs to the kind of final identification of the cause of death as "suicide".

"It's a death anyway, so why do you have to struggle so hard, and it's so ugly." Xiaoxiao explained the reason why he took away the food stored by the nobles. If it was in the past, this kind of behavior would be no problem. After all, the nobles have a lot of ways. Scrape money and food from those untouchables.

But the problem is that things are different now. Perhaps in the villages and small towns farther from the city, the famine will not be so severe. At most, the public security and living standards have plummeted. After all, these small towns have a small population and have a little agriculture.

The real troubles are adventurers, disorganized soldiers, and bandit refugees, and there is obvious famine around a big city like the capital, and this is the embarrassing point. People in the city can't get out, and the refugees outside the city Crazy want to go in, in the distance from the big city

The city is far enough away, but there is still a certain amount of food reserves, but the transportation cannot enter these places.

area only.

Of course, this is only temporary. As the refugees eventually spread, these places that still have food storage will be breached one by one, or a real medieval dock town will be formed.

Uma is such a lucky mining town. It mainly produces iron ore and magic crystal mines. Because it makes a living by mining, there are many monsters around because of the relationship between magic crystals, which means that this town has quite a lot. Strong walls and plenty of adventurers

Discuss life.

And because it is impossible to engage in agricultural production, and the materials of monsters are mainly rock and crystal systems, daily supplies are completely dependent on the supply of large cities in the distance. There are a lot of food in the mine tunnel.

And now, it has become one of the few isolated islands on the chaotic continent. Relying on catching mice, growing mushrooms and simply eating stocks, life can barely be maintained, and even continue to hire those unemployed adventurers to clean up and try Bandits and degenerates who plundered the town.

Compared with the famine in other places, the problem here is unemployment. The cities that depend on the ore produced here are finished. No one will come to transport their ore away, and no one will send them any supplies.

Except for the food that can barely support the outside world, other parts have been cut off. The road leading to the city is full of depraved people and bandits. Make it clear.

It can only be repeatedly emphasized that the city is already hell, and even hell will not be more terrifying than there.Xiao Xiao strongly agrees with this.

Going to the forest of elves, Uma and the ancient underground passages near Uma are the only way to go. What needs to be emphasized here is that if the normal path is used, the forest of elves and human territory have a large area of ​​border. Unfortunately, now an aurora The same curtain encloses the entire forest.

And this ancient underground passage built when the demon king was about to capture the entire continent was the only one that was not covered by the barrier. At that time, the elves provided magic props and assistance to humans through this passage, and finally drove the demon king back to him. dungeons to go.

When passing by the city dominated by industry and mining, Xiaoxiao dropped in

After shopping around, the conclusion is no different from that adventurer, a living hell.

In the past, more than half of the kingdom's alchemy medicines and magic equipment were produced here, but now there is only a dead city. The locals seem to have used some kind of highly poisonous alchemy to clean up the hungry mobs, but it eventually got out of control.

The city is still burning up until now, and various fire-resistant magic potions and alchemy raw materials are constantly emitting poisonous smoke with hallucinations. The local people have completely lost control, either hungry or mad by the poisonous smoke.

The streets and carriages were burning. Remnants, severed arms, and scorched human structures could be seen everywhere on the delicate sidewalks. In front of the ancient church, countless corpses were piled up and burned into an indistinguishable mass.

The only remaining survivors are wandering the streets with magic weapons originally provided for adventurers, attacking any living thing, either by indiscriminate attacks controlled by the hallucinations created by the poisonous smoke, or for the last piece of life on passers-by. Food one by one themselves!

Maybe there are still some safe spots in this city of hell, for example, I saw a few arrows with safe houses written on it, but in general, the city is finished, and even if there is no such thing as famine , also finished.

They no longer have raw materials, no products, no demand, and no more orders. Ninety percent of them will be unemployed, and then suffer in poverty with nothing to do.

"Om!" Feather Arrow landed in front of Xiao Xiao, "Who is it!?"

"The envoy of the royal family needs to go through the underground passage to go to the kingdom of elves." Several heads appeared on the wooden wall, which seemed to be adventurers. After carefully looking at Xiaoxiao and Xili, they seemed to be a little undecided.

These three people look too strange, a swordsman wearing oriental armor, a magic warrior wearing extraordinarily exquisite armor, and a third who seems to be a swordsman, but the equipment is very thin, maybe a ranger or a thief .

The guard on the wall watched for a long time, and after confirming that there was no ambush, he said something.

Sentence "You guys wait."

"Honestly speaking, I have a better plan." Xiao Xiao raised his hand, "How about using the Dragon Sparrow's sword to split open the door, and then go straight through?"

"My lord, why does Hao seem to be getting more and more irritable these days?" The former Xiao Xiao would not be so reckless.

"Because we're running out of food!" I've never had such an urgent problem before, even if I can't buy food, at least I can grab food or find something that can be used to make food

But this time, there is really nothing to eat, and the food in the backpack is getting less and less day by day. Brother, this is very scary for the Hui family—it is inevitable that they will not become irritable and anxious.

The gate was obviously strengthened and still had someone's plasma remaining.

Slowly opened a crack, "Come in, I hope what you say is true." Walking into the town

, even Xiaoxiao was a little relieved, because this place looks relatively normal, but it has changed from a Japanese-style fantasy industrial and mining town at the end of the first industry to an orthodox European fantasy-style mining town.

The buildings are fairly complete. After all, at this point in time, if it wasn’t for man-made destruction, there wouldn’t be a large area of ​​buildings that are old and dilapidated like slums, but the streets are full of all kinds of garbage, and almost all the shops are closed. Almost only one tavern serving adventurers remains open.

It’s just a tavern, and now it can’t provide anything except water mixed with juice and black bread with a lot of sawdust. The price of a piece of old sausage can make the richest person in the town want to beat it. shiver.

——The stove in a simple blacksmith shop is still emitting heat. After all, there are no more monsters, and there are many bandits wandering outside, as well as those fallen, so this town

Some local adventurers are also needed for defense.

Other than that, there are only homeless people in the street left, and miners of all sizes sitting idly in the corner. If the magic spar in the mine didn’t disappear with the disappearance of the devil, the situation here would be even worse. Oops.

Fortunately, the magic spar is still there. The mage in the adventurer can use the fire crystal to continue to light the street lamps, heat the mine to grow mushrooms, use the crystal to make clear water and filter groundwater, and the light crystal to heal wounds and replenish physical strength.

Although this kind of usage is like using gold as bricks, but now I don’t care so much, the purchasing power of gold coins is over, and people here don’t need gold coins, useful magic crystal shards, or any food and useful materials in order to buy gold coins. Buy something at the flea market.

Although the magic crystal is so useful, its output determines that this usage can only last for a while. In addition, metal minerals and magic minerals also have some uses.

"Don't the priests here know how to make food?" The pastor of the Blind Fish Eating Church doesn't know low-level food making skills, so he can understand it. of?

"Yes, they can use magic to make water, bread, and even a big table feast, the only problem" Ciri raised his fingers helplessly, "You can't create something out of nothing, he

The food they make with magic costs more magic gold than you can buy with money, and it's

It needs to consume monster materials as a catalyst for casting spells"O

And now there are no more monsters, if it is not for the lack of monsters, if it is just a famine caused by a simple harvest, the locals have ten thousand ways to deal with it. As long as there is a high-level monster catalyst, a mid-level priest can summon enough monsters. The people of the town are coming to eat a feast.

There are everything from meat to fruit to staple food, and the taste is not bad. As for the price

The problem is trivial at this time, at least I won't be so hungry that I have magic gold in my hand

coin adventurer.

"Magic not only needs materials to make food, but also to make potions. I mean the kind that can give birth to crops."

"Well, I understand. So, they are not simply having problems with the supply of extra food. That's actually not too much of a problem. The real tragedy is the collapse of the industrial chain, right?" No more fertilizer, no more feed, The industrial raw materials for maintaining the greenhouse, oh, sorry, there are still those, but the alchemy materials necessary for breeding are also available

O

Food is just the biggest part of this tragedy chain. In fact, they can't even make the lowest-level small healing medicine now. That thing needs slime's body fluids, and what is slime?It is the thing that you can hit two when you go out and shit, second only to beetles and mice.

As for a monster that a child over 10 years old can handle with a wooden stick, of course, there are actually professional farms for industrialized slime breeding on the human side, but if you can't stand the monster, it's gone.

Therefore, all current medicines need to consume raw material inventory, but the problem is that high-grade materials may still be in stock, but the amount of low-grade materials is so large, who the hell would store a lot of them, aren’t they all ready-to-use? Storage Is the cost free?

"So the gods here seem to really care about nothing," Xiaoxiao nodded.

“How come you see?”

"Because the essence of this situation is that the gods did not bestow divine power on his attendants and priests. He only gave a spell model, and all the magic power and power come from the price you pay yourself, whether it is magic gold coins Or the monster material is actually just providing the various factors necessary for this spell.” Xiao Xiao is indeed a professional in this area.

"And if there are gods, their problems will not be so serious. The gods will bestow part of the faith and spirit of mortals, as well as the power of the world's feedback.

On the whole, they are actually middlemen, but only from the perspective of divine magic users, they are indeed extremely generous. "

Because the number of magic users is directly proportional to the range of god believers and influence. "For example, the real gods gather the power contributed by 100 million mortals, and then use 5 of them to grant miracles to twenty people.

For these twenty apostles or pastors, they feel that the gods are so generous, that the payment and the return are completely unequal, and more mortals who provide faith do not think that they are qualified or should enjoy this return.”

"This is still based on a premise. The gods are really hard-working porters. During the process, they didn't get a penny of kickbacks." What a joke, the lawful and kind people just get less kickbacks, and the neutral ones are Eating but not doing things, the final chaos and evil is simply that you have to owe him something.

The small town of Uma is not spacious. Even if they came in the name of royal envoys, those people didn't pay too much attention to these three strangers. All those scrutinizing eyes were taken back.

These three people are not easy to mess with. If it is normal, it is hard to say whether there will be a guy who covets the beauty to do things, but now, everyone will pay a huge price for this kind of thing.

"The mayor wants to see you, come with me." The guarded female adventurer flicked her red ponytail and led the way.

"Be prepared to fight. According to my adventures, the mayor must have bad intentions."

"My lord, how did you see that?"

"Nonsense, if you heard that the royal envoy arrived at this time, you didn't come here to show your loyalty, and then see when this chaos will end, but

Let you go to see him, what do you think he is paying attention to? "Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes.

"However, it's okay. I'm afraid that I will meet someone who is full of brains and fat to show their loyalty. Now this is just right." If there is a disagreement, kill them.

Brother—Bai 21 Early

Chapter 230

The mayor of Wuma Town is not a fat man with a fat head, but a rather burly man, "You are the mayor here?"

"That's right, you can call me Hank." The strong man seemed to have not received any training in aristocratic etiquette, which seemed a bit nondescript, but Xiao Xiao keenly discovered that some places in this gorgeously decorated room had some traces left. of blood.

"Then the previous mayor, where did you bury him?"

"Buried in..." Hank suddenly stopped talking, his eyes showed a bit of fierce light, but it had no deterrent effect on Xiaoxiao, "Forget it, I don't bother to find out where you buried him, anyway, I don't want to bury him." I know that guy, so why did you ask us to come over? Treat us to dinner?" Longque jumped happily in the palm of his hand, turning into a silver-gray streamer around Xiaoxiao, as if a moon was hanging behind her.

"I just want to see the special envoy of the kingdom. After all, no official person has come to this place for a long time." It was so long that he seized control of this town, but no one came. The first reaction was that it was obvious that something happened to me, so I wanted to find out the truth.

The reason why he didn't take the initiative to greet him was the same reason. He was afraid that he would take it down before he opened it. He was very confident in the adventurers under him. As long as the special envoy offered a price, these adventurers would immediately rebel.

Well, it's not a traitor, they just gave up the mission and chose a better rewarding mission, and they didn't pledge allegiance to anyone from the beginning to the end.

"Indeed, but we don't care about your rule here. If you are lucky, you should still be able to continue to rule. If you are not lucky..."

For example, after the hungry people in the city finally eat up the last bit of food in the suburbs, they will inevitably spread to the farther countryside.

And a large number of unemployed people, those adventurers who have mastered the force, and those who survived the cruel city will become the best soldiers for ambitious people, or if it is not related to the famine, there are already wars everywhere, although there is no difference look.For example, the "Mayor" in front of him is obviously such an ambitious man.
