Chapter 64: Arrive at Kongqing Town
Under the leadership of Lei Xiao, along with the unhurried pace of a group of five people, the mysterious veil of Kongqing Town was gradually lifted.
At first glance, there is a relatively complete defense system here. The nearly three-meter-high stone city wall completely wraps the entire town. On the city wall, flags are fluttering, and people are looking forward.
At this time, it can be clearly observed that there are many soldiers in full armor, patrolling on guard. Under the sunlight, the polished iron armor reflects a slightly dazzling cold light.
"This posture is a bit interesting."
Squinting slightly, Lei Xiao continued to observe.
Looking down, the wide-open city gate is filled with people coming and going, bustling and bustling.
Occasionally, merchants and caravans driving carriages can be seen passing by, surrounded by mercenaries one after another.
Needless to say, the businessmen dressed in fancy clothes, the mercenaries in charge of guarding on the side made Lei Xiao look sideways slightly.
I saw that these mercenaries were dressed in a variety of styles.
Staff with heavy armor, heavy crossbow with large shield, big sword with commoner and other strange outfits can be said to have everything.
But it can be clearly seen that they are basically very common first-order equipment.
"I wonder if those fashion people who have passed through will one day teach people how to dress in this other world?"
Lei Xiao curled his lips slightly, and Lei Xiao's eyes continued to wander.
As for the strength of the mercenaries, most of them are also Tier 1. In terms of momentum, Lei Xiao himself, who has risen to Tier 1 and Nine Stars at the speed of light, is a lot shorter than himself.
Only occasionally I can see a few second-order mercenaries with faint arrogance, but I have never seen them at all.
Probably because they were near the city gate, these mercenaries looked relaxed.
Between each other, the topic of women and spirits was discussed unscrupulously, the unrestrained laughter and the collision of the armor came one after another, and all kinds of fancy foul language appeared one after another.
"If these guys travel to Blue Star, they'll all be talents, and they can speak nicely."
Shaking his head helplessly, Lei Xiao, whose head was buzzing with shock, slowly retracted his gaze.
All in all, these people obviously can't pose any threat to the powerful people around them.
As for the soldiers in charge of guarding, although the equipment is slightly better, their overall strength is not as good as that of mercenaries, and there is a slight gap compared to the previous half-orc army.
"I have to say, everything here is exactly the same as what Kumbu said before."
Refreshed, Lei Xiao began to recall the scene at that time.
According to the information provided by Kunbu, this Kongqing Town is an important trade hub in the surrounding area, so such a prosperous scene and scale is naturally a normal thing.
Because of this, although the five members of the party have their own characteristics, they are not too conspicuous among the various mercenaries and businessmen.
However, just in case, Lei Xiao still put away the high-level weapons of the knotweed and others, and replaced them with ordinary first-level weapons.
As for Ye Cang, Lei Xiao had already inquired about it in private. What was surprising was that this guy didn't like to carry any weapons, and was more willing to fight with his bare hands.
"Speaking of which, this town, which is far from the actual border line, does not seem to have been greatly affected by the war because of the huge shadow forest."
While pondering, he nodded to the knotweed and the others beside him, Lei Xiao took his own steps again and started walking towards the city gate.
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion at the front of the city gate, followed by a series of scolding voices.
It sounds like there is a disagreement between the two mercenary teams because of the quest.
In a short while, the two sides changed from verbal conflict to physical conflict, and started a fierce fight.
For a while, the crackling sound of weapons colliding with the wailing sound mixed, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
At the same time, a large number of melon eaters gathered around to watch the excitement.
Among them, there were even a few soldiers guarding the gates, all with a look of schadenfreude.
Although their duty is to maintain law and order, it is only aimed at ordinary civilians. Forces like the mercenary group are naturally not within their jurisdiction.
In the battle between these forces, especially the powerhouses, even the city lord turns a blind eye, as long as the surface is decent enough, let alone ordinary soldiers like them.
"Reporting to the lord, there is a small-scale battle ahead.
There are two second-order peaks on one side, three first-order peaks, and one second-order and four first-order peaks on the other. What should I do? "
Immediately afterwards, Nan Xing, who had a keen sense of perception, clasped his fist at Lei Xiao and said, "Do you need a subordinate to conduct a detailed investigation?"
"No need, it has nothing to do with us, let's go directly to the city." He waved his hand slightly, indicating that Nan Xing did not need to be polite here, and Lei Xiao responded without hesitation.
Just like that, the group of five continued to walk towards the city gate.
However, just when Lei Xiao led the crowd ~ to bypass the crowd watching the fun in front of him, he found that the gate was already blocked.
"Lord Lord, do you need your subordinates to clear these little reptiles?" Seeing this, Knotweed couldn't help frowning, the muscles on his body trembled slightly, and he asked Lei Xiao for instructions.
"Don't be impulsive, don't forget that we have to keep a low profile, keep a low profile." With a helpless smile, Lei Xiao waved his hand again and said, "If you can't, just wait for a while."
Just when Lei Xiao said this, a change occurred.
I saw a gap suddenly opened in the crowd, and a figure stumbled backwards, heading towards Lei Xiao's direction, and slammed into it.
It seems that it should be caused by being repelled by someone on the other side.
At the same time, seeing that abominable figure, he was about to collide with the lord. Nan Yue, who was guarding in front of Lei Xiao, froze on her pretty face and kicked up subconsciously.
In an instant, accompanied by a gust of wind, he directly kicked the opponent back according to the original route like a ball!
The angle of view zoomed in, and in midair, I saw the unlucky guy wearing a dark gray leather armor. Before he understood what was going on, he passed out in the process of flying.
Until it landed heavily on the open space in the center of the warring parties, and made a bang.
For a time, the whole scene froze in an instant.
Not only the melon-eating crowd onlookers, but even the two warring parties in the center of focus, all stopped fighting in unison, all looked in the direction of Lei Xiao, all showing expressions of astonishment.
On the other side, Lei Xiao, who instantly became the new focus, twitched the corners of his mouth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
My dear, is it so hard to keep a low profile?
