MC's career as foreign lord
Chapter 210 Visitors
Just as Zhou Ren was continuing to research his territory's products and pondering what to plant in this area, two new Legends finally arrived.
"Teacher, slow down! I can't keep up!" Even Legends have their strengths and weaknesses, let alone Human Legends. This particular Legend had clearly just advanced, his aura was very unstable, still teetering on the edge, and his Destiny was flickering in and out of sight.
As the first Human Legend to arrive, Katelyn naturally possessed her own pride, but seeing her good-for-nothing disciple infuriated her.
"Angie, what's wrong with you? I told you to hurry, and you're still dragging your feet!" She knew her disciple all too well. Although he was gifted, becoming a Legend before the age of 20, he could never shake his lazy habits.
As a renowned Legend Mage on the continent, even if a high-level Legend came, she was confident she could escape. But her disciple was the epitome of slow and sluggish, probably unable to defeat even a newly ascended Legend.
"Don't worry, Teacher!" Angie said, a confident smile on his youthful face. "Based on the relationship between this new territory and the Orcs, they're bound to fight. We just need to wait until the fighting is at its fiercest, then step in and support this territory, and they'll treat us like honored guests!"
"Dream on!" Katelyn flicked him on the forehead. "You think too highly of yourself! This person is destined to become a Prince of the Elves. With the Elves' arrogant nature, how could they let him obtain that title so easily without some special ability?"
She raised her eyes slightly, as if recalling that glorious and vibrant moment.
"Don't you use your head? Which of those who have obtained the honor of Elven Prince isn't a pride of our Human race?"
The two stopped talking, for the towering city walls were almost upon them.
Only by getting close to the walls could one truly appreciate their magnificence. To withstand the Orcs' attacks and potential future invasions, they had patiently built the walls of this area to a height of over 20 meters.
Even from a distance, it resembled a terrifying, savage beast, quietly lying in wait, ready to reveal its bloody maw and devour everyone present.
"This is the hallmark of a magnificent city!" Heydrich said with some emotion. How long had it been since he had seen a Human city rise between the Elves and the Orcs?
The reason he had arrived so early was that he had heard that the actual controller of this territory was a Human, which was an incredible thing!
Moreover, even the Elves were marrying a princess to him, and this place would become the domain of a future Elven Grand Duke, which made Katelyn even more curious.
Furthermore, rumors circulated that this place even held news of the Tree of Life, which had disappeared for many years. Even the higher-ups of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth, who usually only cared about money, seemed eager to promote this news.
It was as if the territory's lord had some special connection to them.
"It's just an ordinary city. Nothing as magical as the rumors say!" Angie said, his high self-esteem preventing him from seeing anything special.
As a young man who became a Legend at the age of twenty, his pride was unmatched. He believed that most people in the world were inferior to him, and he still thought so. Even these vast city walls, so what? As a Legend, could these walls stop him?
As he was thinking this, he crashed headfirst into the city wall. "Ouch!" He clutched his head. As a Legend Mage, his physique wasn't particularly strong.
But even so, for ordinary stone walls to block a Legend Mage's passage was a bit too outrageous.
"Rumor has it that this territory has many magical properties. An impassable boundary is one of them. You never learn!" Katelyn said.
However, at that moment, she suddenly frowned, looking strangely at the area. "They said the Orcs would attack today, but I don't sense any Orcish presence. Did they suddenly change the time?"
Of course, she couldn't explain the specifics of this. After all, the Destiny above their heads was still visible. Although she and her disciple had both passed their Destiny and completed all the trials before establishing themselves as Legends...
Although this little brat was not very promising, he was not someone that ordinary people could compare to. As the Grand Mage of the Kaelan Magic Kingdom, she naturally had such confidence.
But others might not have such confidence. After all, Destiny was mainly a matter of luck. If you were lucky and obtained a simple Destiny, you could become a true Destiny Legend in just half a month.
If you were unlucky, like the Elven Princess, and obtained a difficult or even unbearable Destiny, you could only find other ways.
The simplest way was for the priests of the gods, whose Destinies were basically issued by their own gods. These Destinies could be changed by the gods, greatly reducing the difficulty of completion.
However, priests generally wouldn't do this, because it would reveal their status in the eyes of the gods. They wouldn't easily expend such favors and would instead try to complete the Destiny themselves, unless there was truly an impossible task.
Mages or other countries naturally had ways to change their Destiny as well. They would trade with the will of the world using treasures, just like the Abyss's will. The main world naturally had its own will too. The only reason it couldn't be traded with was that the bargaining chips weren't enough.
Generally, those who sought wild Destinies were either wild Legends without any power or those who didn't want to exchange benefits and wanted to obtain them through their own strength. There weren't too many of these Legends, but there certainly weren't too few either. The Elven Kingdom alone already had thousands of Legends, and the total number of Legends on the other continents might exceed tens of thousands.
And there were naturally even more of those who had not yet advanced to Legend or whose Destiny was missing. This kind of person was never a small number, but a number that was frighteningly large.
They came here not for this Destiny, but to lay a good foundation for the forces behind them in this brand new territory.
But now, the two mages were trapped by an invisible, transparent wall. They even flew sideways for a long time but couldn't find a place to pass through directly.
Fortunately, Kadrin was a smart man. He wasn't here to cause trouble but to visit. Surely a territory like this wouldn't refuse guests, would it?
So, he shouted loudly, "Is anyone there?"
Although his disciple thought this was embarrassing, it worked very well. Almost the instant he spoke, someone peeked out from the city wall. It was a beautiful elf... a male.
However, if you don't look closely, all elves seem to look the same. They're all very pretty anyway. As for male or female, some nobles don't care.
Ahem! Of course, those nobles have mostly turned into fertilizer or dust in the air. However, people like that continue to do such things despite repeated prohibitions, which has troubled the elves greatly.
But it's not without its benefits. At least they're treated like honored guests wherever they go. Now, seeing two figures who were clearly human appear below the city wall, he clapped his hands, and a section of the wall suddenly retracted.
This was actually one of the special effects researched by Redstone. It used sticky pistons to stick all the wall bricks together, and then, in the next instant, it could pull them all into the wall next to it. Then, by using pistons to pull them to both sides again, it could create a very flexible open-style city wall.
Moreover, this kind of city wall isn't the same as a city gate. The strength of a city gate is completely different from that of a city wall. But this kind of city wall, once closed with the press of a button, is no different from the city wall next to it. It's just that there might be a few more redstone mechanisms underneath.
After the city wall retracted, the territory's defense system seemed to sense it, and the air wall, which couldn't be touched but definitely existed, suddenly disappeared.
The two legendary figures entered the territory. Only then did they see the person in front of them. "Where do the guests come from?"
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
This person was a high-level professional. As a guide for the two legendary figures, he was qualified enough.
"We come from the Kaelan Mage Kingdom. We heard that there's a town built by a human lord here, so..." As soon as they spoke, the other party seemed to know their origins.
This high-level elven professional seemed to have seen this scene before. He smiled slightly, "You don't have to hide it. Everyone knows why you're here!"
"Huh?" The two mages looked at each other, suddenly feeling confused. They really just came to understand the situation of this human town's master. What's going on?
"Many people have come here in the past few days, and everyone's reasons are different. Some came to visit friends, some came to help, some came to spar with the elves. The most outrageous was when we met two dwarves who said they came to recognize relatives. They even said their relative was a wild troll. Don't you think that's funny?"
The two people shook their heads at the same time, not feeling the humor in that sentence. But the elf didn't care and continued to lead them inside.
"The battle with the orcs has long ended. We successfully repelled the orcs and left behind six of their legendary figures. The results were very good!" he said.
This was actually the content of Zhou Ren's training for them, mainly to show the strength of his territory, so that some nobodies wouldn't come looking for trouble every day.
In the first two days, some people came pretending to be orcs to extort money, saying that if they were given enough money, they could say that the orcs would let them retreat. At first, he was somewhat interested in paying attention to these guys, but now he naturally didn't have much interest.
He directly told the guards to kick them out. If something happened, he could explain it. These scammers really came in all shapes and sizes, from halflings to gnomes to humans.
But later, after several legendary powerhouses entered, these scammers decreased a lot. They seemed to already know that once the legendaries arrived, the threat of the orc clan would be ineffective.
The two human legendary mages continued to look at each other. The master and disciple didn't know what to say. Then, they watched the elf lead them across the city wall, arriving inside and seeing the rows of buildings and special creations.
They could also see some people of other races watching something inside. They could also hear this particularly talkative elf, who didn't seem to need to stop talking at all.
"Actually, we all know the purpose of everyone's visit, which is for the auction. However, the auction will be held in a week. You can only live here temporarily. All accessible areas are accessible!"
The two people's faces were full of black lines after hearing this. What do you mean by "all accessible areas are accessible"? Did you say this the last time too?
Then, in the next second, the two of them crashed into an invisible membrane air wall. It was really interesting. After leading them here, the elf went straight up, leaving them standing at this magnificent intersection, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"I understand why they say that accessible places are just those that can be walked on!" Angie said, looking at her teacher, "Teacher, this is their market, shall we go in and take a look?"
"Have you heard of the auction they mentioned?" Unexpectedly, Kadrin's first concern was this matter. They clearly didn't come for this reason, but it seemed that many people who had come in the past few days were here for this reason. They even saw some acquaintances.
This is the land of elves, and basically only silver elves come here. But they clearly saw some sun elves, or solar elves. That proud group of long-ears wouldn't come to the silver elves' territory. Since they came like this, it should be the golden dragon.
They even saw some creatures exuding a sulfurous aura in the territory. If they guessed correctly, these should be monsters from the abyss. This lord's involvement is really a bit extensive. He can even invite creatures from the abyss to trade. Did they not fight with the elves?
"I haven't heard of it, teacher, but isn't that their auction venue over there?" Angie said, pointing to the distance.
