Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 441 Entering the City
Li Xia examined the long rifle in his hand, a type of rifle he had seen in the hands of the soldiers before.

This rifle is about 2.2 meters long, far exceeding the length of modern rifles, but its structure is very similar to that of single-shot rifles from World War I.

Although simple, in Li Xia's eyes, this spear emitting a light purple light was truly astonishing.

The Thornbird White Powder Bolt-action Buzzer Gun

[Description: It is like a ferocious beast, and also like the legendary thorn bird, capable of inflicting devastating blows on its enemies while also wounding itself.]

[Special Note: This item cannot be taken out of this world without notarization.]

Attack strength 13! Range can reach a terrifying 3,000 meters!
No wonder the Kingdom of Tresia was able to defeat the Kingdom of Valais, which boasted the most superhumans, by using white gunpowder and rhenium steel weapons.

Even if this gun has no other capabilities or advantages.

But it's just that it's violent and its power is terrifying!
To put it bluntly, if that gun had hit Li Xia on the head, it would probably have blown his skull to pieces.

Because the caliber of this white powder rifle bullet, by modern standards, exceeds a terrifying 20 millimeters.
Moreover, this white gunpowder was clearly unconventional, and its terrifying lethality was astonishing.

If this gun were in the modern world, an ordinary person would probably be shattered by the recoil if they fired it.

No wonder the elite city defense force of Montel I saw before only had about a dozen men equipped with this kind of gun.

"Meow?"

Black Charcoal stared at the pale purple rifle and asked in astonishment.

Li Xia put the gun away, smiled, and shook his head:

"It's not that every rifle is purple-grade; this gun must have come from that unlucky viscount."

This is a specially made, high-quality item from the gun workshop. A regular rifle would typically have "standard rifle" in its name, but this one has a prefix.

Looking at the room that had already been searched, the two little ones were still pretty good at licking the floor, but with Xiaotian around, they became even more meticulous.

Li Xia even felt a little nostalgic for Moriyama, the little brother he took in from the Naruto world.

He even dared to take out his loincloth!

Finally, I counted them: a total of 16 gold coins, 26 silver coins, and about two hundred copper coins.

The three little ones didn't even spare the gold and silver artifacts still stained with blood, considering that these artifacts might be recognized by others.

The kitten simply used 'lightning metallurgy' to melt them into gold balls. The value of the gold balls was reduced, but the purpose was not to make money.

"Boss, should we go and collect their heads for the reward?"

Aowu pondered the corpses for a while before asking a question.

Killing a viscount would certainly warrant a bounty, and judging from the Marquis of Montreux's furious expression, the bounty might not be small.

"No need, it's not worth it. It's more important to complete the main quest first. This time, it will be difficult to get the support of the local characters."

Li Xia flicked the few thin sheets of paper the puppy had found, and a vague idea began to emerge in her mind.

"Let's go to Montel City first!" "The ancient king's tomb is so magical and magnificent. The year it was built is unknown, but it has always appeared in the stories that have been passed down throughout the continent."

Legend has it that the ancient king led his invincible army to defeat the demons who slaughtered humanity.

In the end, he died of exhaustion after killing the Demon King, leaving behind countless people and loyal subordinates who were deeply grieving.

They vowed to bury this great former king in the most magnificent and secure tomb.

The tomb was finally completed. His loyal guards voluntarily gave up their lives to forever protect their king, and the sorcerers lowered their unruly heads.

They joined forces to cast an unparalleled spell on the tomb, and the craftsmen used their treasured techniques to add every anti-theft measure they could think of.

But even such a monarch did not leave his name behind.

Therefore, I could only stand before the tomb's entrance and sigh silently.

Li Xia closed the book "Fengwu Zhi" and stroked the slightly rough cover.

This is also the only mission location mentioned in the book.

The carriage wheels rolled over the dirt road, and the carriage swayed slightly, making a creaking sound.

The wind in the wilderness blew through the grass and then rushed in through the carriage window, stirring the coarse cloth curtains.

Li Xia turned his head to look at the scenery outside. In the setting sun, the dark shadow of a city in the distance was gradually approaching.

The driver's rough voice rang out along with the creaking of the wheels:
"Young man, the city of Montreal is just ahead. You're really lucky; you didn't encounter those bandits while crossing the foothills."

Li Xia put the book away and replied somewhat insincerely:

"You're really lucky."

The three little ones all leaned their heads against the window, quietly watching the scenery.

After giving the coachman three copper coins, Li Xia looked at the high city walls and the guards checking people entering the city.

He simply leaped up, blocking the blind spot, and in a flash, he cleared the city wall, which was more than ten meters high.

It landed lightly in a deserted area, where Observation Haki proved exceptionally useful.

After passing through the clutter and what looked like city defense bricks and stones, and going around the obstructing walls, the view suddenly opened up before us.

The buildings were arranged in a staggered and distinctive style, giving him the feeling of a town from 'Dragon Quest'.

"Boss, what's next? Should we go find the library or..."

Li Xia glanced at the setting sun, pondered for a moment, and then said:
"Go find a library, sneak in, mainly books on history, geography, and local customs, preferably with maps."

I used a smart device to record my trip to another place.

He flipped his hand and took out several sheets of paper from his spatial storage; they were the documents he had found in the bandits' lair.

He flicked one of the cards: "Use this card to post a quest at the Adventurers' Guild."

The conversation with the coachman wasn't entirely fruitless; for example, he learned that being an adventurer was a popular profession in this world.

Furthermore, there are adventurer guilds under the empire's control, and they will do anything for any request.

“I think we can issue a commission and hire people to escort us to the tombs of ancient kings.”

"Wonderful!"

I drove for seven hours and couldn't take it anymore, so I went to sleep.

My head feels like it's going to explode.
