Chapter 74: Pugas City (below)

The city of Pugas is very prosperous, and the people who come and go are dressed in different clothes, so when they saw the huge team led by Old Wilson, they were a little curious and whispered in hordes.
Old Wilson frowned. It would be a bit difficult to house a whole two thousand people, and ordinary places simply couldn't live.
"Father, I think it's better to set up a few hotels first and settle down temporarily. I'll go to Count Cellin. With his help, I believe we can have a lot less trouble in Pugas City."
Merlin had a letter from Earl Purmon on his body, and it should be handed over to Earl Selling as soon as possible to help the Wilson and Barman families settle in Pugas City.
Old Wilson nodded his head, which is currently only the case, so Old Wilson sent the leader of Pula, and after contracting a few hotels in Pugas, he reluctantly settled the team.
Then Merlin walked alone to the castle of Earl Sellin.
Earl Sellin's castle is easy to find. After turning a few street corners and looking northwest, you can see a white steeple castle. The castle occupies a very large area, surrounded by trees, a white wall surrounds the castle, and an iron fence outside is guarded by more than ten tall guards.
And from time to time, a team of knights can be seen patrolling in front of the castle, seemingly calm, but there is some tension.
These knights, like those of the Blackwater City defense groups, are the private armies of Count Sairin. In fact, the entire city of Pugas is the private territory of Count Sailing.
On the way from Ravensburg to Pugas, Merlin also had some understanding of the general situation of the Black Moon Kingdom. Although the Black Moon Kingdom as a whole is a huge kingdom, it is actually different from the Light Kingdom in essence. .
The Kingdom of the Black Moon is composed of city-states, like Pugas, a small city-state, controlled by Count Carballo Sailing. Once Count Sailing dies, the title is owned by other members of the Kabaro family. To inherit, even the king could not intervene.
Each city-state is the private territory of an aristocracy and the foundation of a large family. The entire Black Moon Kingdom is made up of tens and thousands of city states. The royal family of the Black Moon Kingdom is the largest aristocracy in the kingdom and also holds the largest city states, so it is respected as the monarch of the Black Moon Kingdom.
Messy bodies and systems like this have actually existed for 800 years, and there haven't even been any major disturbances, which really puzzled Mei Lin.
Merlin took the letter from Count Purman from his arms and walked towards Count Sailing's castle.
"stop!"
When the castle guard saw Merlin, he immediately became vigilant.
Merlin said faintly: "I'm from Ravensburg, and I have a letter from Earl Phum on my hand to Earl Seling."
The guards glanced at each other, and then their expressions eased a lot, but they still didn't relax their vigilance and whispered, "Give me the letter, wait here for a while!"
Mei Lin nodded slightly, his mental strength was keenly aware that the moment he came to the castle, many glances appeared from the castle, paying close attention to himself.
This shows that the guards inside the castle are even stricter, and there are probably hidden guards throughout the castle.
Such a strict alert, it seems that Count Sailing must have encountered great trouble, otherwise a dignified earl, the absolute master of Pugas City, the highest commander of a city state, would never be so careful in his castle.
Just as the guard was about to turn into the castle, he stopped a carriage in front of the castle, and stepped off a wonderful young girl from the carriage.
The girl was tall, with long blond hair and a ponytail, she looked playful and lively. The girl looked at Merlin as soon as she pulled the carriage, and said suspiciously, "Are you from Ravensburg?"
Merlin nodded, and the girl continued to ask, "Are you all right, Aunt Charla?"
"Shara?"
Merlin frowned. He had never heard of the name.
The girl seemed to think of something. She patted her forehead and said with annoyance, "Aunt Charla is the Countess."
"Oh, count and countess are very good."
The girl nodded, and then said to the guard, "Give me the letter. I just went in to find something with my father."
"Okay, Miss Shelley!"
The guard passed Merlin's letter to the girl.
"Wait a minute, give the letter to your father first, but I'll ask Aunt Charla's condition in Ravensburg later."
When the girl finished speaking, she walked towards the castle.

"Did you find any suspicious people in the city recently?"
Count Sirin seemed a little anxious, and his face was very ugly.
"Master, there were too many people travelling to and from Pugas City a few days ago. We haven't checked them yet, so we haven't found any suspicious people."
A middle-aged man wearing silver-white light armor answered carefully, and recently, Count Sailing was upset and had a bad temper, and many of his subordinates were rebuked for no reason.
"Waste! Have you found Mage Hill, did you find it?"
"Here we are, Master Hill. We have found them, but Master Hill has put forward a condition that the Earl must come up with some purple root flowers."
The Silver Armor said cautiously.
Count Sairin frowned: "Promise him, purple root flowers are only known to these casters. If Master Hill is willing to come to the castle this time, purple root flowers can give him more."
After a pause, Count Sailing said hesitantly again: "The letter sent to Ravensburg should have arrived long ago. Why is there no news yet? If Purman can send some casters, this time our The odds are even greater ... "
"Father, it's just to deal with an arrogant. I can solve it by myself. Why do I need to find another caster?"
There is also a burly young man in the hall, wearing heavy armor, flashing a fierce breath all over his face, and showing a confident look on his face.
Count Sirin nodded slightly, and was very satisfied to see the burly young man, saying lightly: "Cook, this time our opponent is a mysterious and powerful caster! Although you are a fifth-level elemental swordsman , But no one knows how powerful this lunatic is. With a caster, he can be more secure. "
Cook still said indifferently: "Father, you are too careful. I once killed an icewolf. Can't I deal with a lunatic? If that lunatic doesn't come, then once he dares, I He must have tore him to pieces! "
Looking at Cook's extremely confident expression, Count Sirin shook his head slightly, but said nothing. He is very satisfied with such an excellent son, but this time the matter is important, and he must do everything. ready.
"Oh? Brother, are you there?"
Suddenly, a lively girl with a pony tail came in from outside the hall.
