Chapter 405: Euclid (2)

Gold and Silver Town is the southern town of the Kingdom of Ebou. It has one-third of the country's ore source. It was once the center of the entire Kingdom of Ebu, but now it just got out of the vortex of the royal princes' power struggle. Independent town.
This is undoubtedly a tragedy and a satire. The dirty trade between the noble lords of the Kingdom of Eboud lasted for a while, and the close-ups and close-ups provided ample creativity for bards to compile various stories. With footage.
Caesar walked on the bustling streets of Jinyin Town. Since half of the men in Jinyin Town were miners or blacksmiths, the folk style was sturdy, and the Northlanders were better than the brave and fierce. They were everywhere. Strong man with bare fur showing his upper body.
Unlike most human cities: there are many halflings here.
There are many more halflings in Eiladia than any humanoid race, and there is no unified government. Halftoning people with amazing reproductive and surviving abilities can be seen everywhere, but there are more gold and silver towns. The town goes south around the thorny mountains. The endless prairie is the boundary of the halflings. They and the Abu people have been fighting for hundreds of years for the veins and territories. The halflings ’ability to mine and craft is also required by humans. Therefore, in some border towns of the Ebu Kingdom, weird situations occurred when the two sides cut off each other during the war and did business together during the truce.
The Ebu and halflings in Gold and Silver Town have maintained such a weird tacit understanding, but recently, with the influx of a large number of adventurers, the town has become chaotic, and the town is full of "Ukrashir", " Nine-headed monster "and other rumors.
Caesar kept a low profile, his expression looked like a fledgling adventurer, and the streets hurriedly roared the mercenaries passing by under the feet, stepping on a roadside drying toilet in the sound of the collision of leather armor Basin, by the way, knocked the owner together, glanced at and left straight away.
Caesar took a closer look. She was hit by a female centaur. Her upper body was basically the same as ordinary humans. Her yellow hair was combed behind her head and she was wearing a large patchwork cloth. Her lower body was a pair of tailored pants skirt.
She supported her hands on the ground, raised her four hoofs, and stood up again in a slightly difficult posture. She patted the dust on her hakama and looked at the newly stained embarrassment with embarrassment.
Caesar stooped to pick up the sink that was kicked to his feet, took two steps forward, and passed.
The female centaur glanced at him unexpectedly, thanking him in a low voice, just like humans. She took the basin, scooped a spoonful of water in the water tank beside the house, and washed it again.
Caesar didn't lower her head, looked at her slightly wagging tail, and said voluntarily, "It doesn't look easy to live here."
"Scourge, sir."
The image shown by Caesar was not a high-level person. The Centaur did not turn back, but whispered: "A sudden fire has consumed all our savings. My husband was forced into the mountain to guide you as a foreigner like you. They said they were looking for Ukra. The goddess was on top, but it was extremely dangerous gambling. The wolves, fierce mane and the mountain demon in the mountains ... "
Then she choked, her voice filled with sadness and grief.
"What happened to him?"
The Centaur turned around: "Earthquake came suddenly. Maybe it wasn't an earthquake, and people said it was the movement caused by the Hydra."
"My husband was on a rugged mountain road at the time, and the earthquake brought rolling stones." She sobbed. "Those foreigners didn't even bring his body back."
"I regret that."
Caesar sighed. This is indeed a sad story. When the sentiment of the female centaur was a little calmer, he went on to say, "In a sense, I am like them, an explorer from the north. Tell me about the latest news? I heard rumors that locals are shouting Euclashir and the Nine-Headed Demon. Sorry to remind you of a sad past. This is a small reward. "
With that said, he took out a silver coin from his pocket, thought about it, took out another, and put it in the hand of the centaur.
"Too much, sir. I don't have any secrets. Some stories that everyone knows are not worth so much money." Centaur glanced and quit.
The Kingdom of Abu, which relies on ore and smelting as its pillar, is not rich and developed, and the price and cost of living are not high. The two silvers can only drink two meals in the trading city, but they can maintain a week of life here. That's a lot of money.
Caesar said a few words and she accepted it.
"Thank you for your generosity, sir. Come in and rest, and I'll try to tell you everything I know."
At the invitation of the horse, Caesar walked into this street hut. The room was small, with a pair of low windows on the left and right, and a wooden sleeper next to the wall opposite the door. A cupboard was placed between it and the low window. , The top is facing away, and there are three drawers below.
There is also a mirror in the corner with a few cracks on the edges. The pattern of the wooden base is so simple that it is not aesthetically pleasing.
Caesar took a seat and sat down. There was a smell of wood chips in the room. It seemed to have just been newly built. In addition, there was a faint smell, which was the flavor of Centaur.
"The Hydra is not a recent news. Long ago, the Kingdom of Ebou has legends about it, and some halfling clans living in the prairie occasionally tell its story."
The Centaur poured a glass of water for Caesar, and then bowed to his knees: "It is rumored that it walked between the dangerous peaks and ground cracks of the Thorns Mountain and swallowed all living things that could be swallowed. It is said that it has an undead body and must be cut off It can be killed by the skull. It is one thousand kilometers long and ninety-nine venom-filled teeth. "
"Originally this was just a monster legend, just as baseless as the legend of the black dragon that eats the world in the north, but I heard that nine and a half months ago, the nine-headed serpent appeared with Eukrahill. At that time, most miners in the Thorns Mountains, The adventurers died, and only a few living people ran out to bring back the news. Later they went crazy, and soon died. "
"People in the town are heartbroken. Some people say that the nine snakes will destroy everything. Some people say that the nine snakes hold the branches of the world tree waiting for the warriors to challenge. Many people plan to leave here and take refuge in other parts of the kingdom. My husband and I I originally planned to leave. But I do n’t know why. This news has attracted many foreigners. These wealthy foreigners have brought a lot of vitality to the town. We have stayed. Who knows ... "
Caesar nodded as he listened, and thought slowly. In his memory loft, he could not find any news about the nine snakes, and this basically proved that this creature did not exist before Eladia.
The nine-headed snake is either a farce that has been passed on by rumors or an unknown creature that has not yet been discovered.
"Besides ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Caesar groaned and asked:" Have it ever appeared? "
"No, it's just that many people have recently disappeared for unknown reasons. Most of them are adventurers heading to the Thorns Mountains. Without their loud voices, the people in the town will not get any other news."
Caesar stood up with a smile: "Thank you for the news, which is very useful to me."
"Thank you also for your generosity, sir, may the goddess bless you." Centaur stood and bowed, thanks again.
Nodded, Caesar took two steps back, turned to the door, opened the wooden door, and when he was about to leave, suddenly bowed his head and said, "Mrs." I think if Eb's life is not easy, the North may be a good one. place."
"North ..." Woman Ma repeated, and it was the first time she had heard a similar consolation.
Caesar didn't explain. He walked out of the house, closed the wooden door, and behaved exactly like normal humans; after that, he found the strange deformity of Lurking Eb and asked, and the result was almost the same as that of Centaur, and there was no more inside information.
