Chapter 60 Chessboard Kingdom 1



Medieval civilization?

Su Ziyu looked at the two people riding past him, his eyes fell on their weapons. The man on the right was using a giant sword, which looked quite heavy, and the man on the right was using a hybrid sword, a hybrid sword that could be used with one hand or two hands, it was neither a one-handed sword nor a two-handed sword, but somewhere in between the two, more suitable for chopping. This was the weapon Ken usually used.

The man with the giant sword also had a mace revealed from his bag, which was also quite heavy.

The two men first glanced at Su Ziyu's face. There was no surprise on their faces, as if they had seen yellow humans before. However, when their eyes fell on the anti-material sniper rifle behind Su Ziyu, strong curiosity and confusion appeared on their faces. They were probably guessing what kind of weapon this was.

It looks a bit like a gun, but it has a strange shape and no blade.

Could it be used to hit people?

Not far ahead was a human town, which didn't look very big, with a wooden wall outside. A lazy bearded man stood on the sentry tower, and he just glanced at Su Ziyu and looked away. Su Ziyu thought for a moment and covered the anti-material sniper rifle with his clothes, then slowly walked into the town.

All I could see were wooden houses.

The town was so small that you could see the edge of it. There were only a grocery store, a blacksmith shop and an inn.

Over at the blacksmith's shop, a sturdy old man was smoking a pipe. He looked Su Ziyu up and down and then looked away. Inside the grocery store, a woman in her thirties, whose arms didn't look thinner than a man's, was walking out and carrying a piece of wood to take back for firewood.

There seemed to be a lot of people at the hotel, and the noise could be heard from quite a distance away.

There are signs hanging in front of each shop. There is a hammer and iron felt in front of the blacksmith shop, a bag in front of the grocery store, a bed in front of the hotel, and the other shops without signs are the residences of the townspeople.

The population is not large.

It is estimated that there are only about one or two thousand people, which is less than the total population of the community where Su Ziyu lives.

Creak.

Su Ziyu pushed the door open and walked into the hotel. There were more than ten people sitting inside, all of them looked tough. The two horsemen Su Ziyu had met earlier were sitting in the corner. When the others heard the door open, they turned around and looked at Su Ziyu. Many of them lowered their heads in surprise and whispered to each other.

There are actually some yellow people among them, but they have Eurasian faces, so there is still a little difference.

Most of the people were armed.

The innkeeper was a fat old man with a somewhat panicked expression. As soon as he came in, he asked Su Ziyu to sit down and asked, "What would you like to order, sir?"

Su Ziyu pointed at something on the table next to him and didn't say anything.

Don’t you like talking?

Or a mute?

The innkeeper glanced at the black short blade on Su Ziyu's waist and asked cautiously, "Would you like to have one according to that table's order?"

Su Ziyu nodded.

The human language is very different from the fairy language. Its grammar sounds a bit like Latin. It will take him some time to master it.

"It will be brought up right away." The hotel owner left quickly.

After watching for a while, Su Ziyu lost interest in the others and started talking in low voices. These people should be mercenaries or adventurers. They were discussing how to kill a flying dragon. This topic immediately aroused Su Ziyu's interest, as he had never seen a real dragon in his life.

"Please enjoy your meal, sir." A waiter brought the food up.

Oatmeal porridge, black sausage, mushroom soup, gray bread, and a glass of beer. The beer has no foam and smells a little sour. The brewing technology must be very primitive.

Food tasted average.

It's far worse than what the big goblins make, it's just barely edible.

Su Ziyu lost his appetite after eating two bites, so he just listened to other people's conversation quietly. The whole story was very simple. A flying dragon built a nest nearby, which not only threatened the residents here, but also alarmed the lord of this area. The flying dragon would attack humans and livestock. In the past one or two months, more than a dozen people have been killed, and a lot of livestock have been eaten. So the lord here issued a bounty mission. Anyone who can kill the flying dragon can get a generous reward. However, because the flying dragon built its nest on the top of a mountain surrounded by ice and snow, only mercenaries have the patience to hunt it. Some people here have been here for a while.

They had seen the flying dragon several times, but they couldn't do anything about it because the dragon didn't even fall down, but flew away directly over the mercenaries' heads.

What these people discussed most was where the dragon's lair would be.

After hearing those people say that the range of bows and arrows could not threaten flying dragons, Su Ziyu subconsciously reached out and touched his anti-material sniper rifle. He didn't know how lethal modern weapons were to this legendary creature.

A flying dragon is a subdragon creature.

They have long and thin necks, no forelimbs, only strong hind legs, and no scales on their bodies. They can swallow half a cow in one bite, which makes them quite dangerous beasts. If it was the giant dragon that Su Ziyu saw in the witch's tree house, I'm afraid that these people would be burned to ashes with a breath of dragon's breath.

"Have you heard?"

"It seems that there has been another war on the border." A mercenary lowered his voice and said, "The minions of the Black Queen have appeared again."

"A lot of monsters came out."

“That’s why there are flying dragons here.”

The Black Queen?

How come there is a black queen here?

Chessboard kingdom?

Is it just like the black and white of chess pieces? Su Ziyu listened with great interest, but unfortunately, those people stopped talking after a few words, as if they were quite taboo about it.

He just vaguely heard a name - "Dragon Witch."

Some mercenaries were checking out and leaving. The currency they used was a copper coin with a woman's head surrounded by flowers printed on the front and a flower bud on the back.

Is this the White Queen?

Is this woman so narcissistic that she actually printed her own portrait on the currency?

Su Ziyu waved for the innkeeper to come over, then took out a blank silver coin with no patterns on it, and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Can I pay with this?"

"Yes... yes." The innkeeper looked at the black short blade on Su Ziyu's waist again, picked up the silver coin and bit it with his teeth.

Su Ziyu nodded and said, "Prepare another room for me."

His ability to understand languages ​​is very strong, and he has mastered some daily expressions by now.

"Okay." The innkeeper left quickly.

After a while, he brought over a big bag of copper coins. Su Ziyu took a quick look and saw that there were probably nearly a hundred of them. It seemed that the silver coins from the wasteland world had a strong purchasing power in this world.

When leaving the wasteland, Su Ziyu considered that he might need gold and silver in the future, so in addition to weapons, ammunition, food and medicine, he also prepared an extra kilogram of silver coins and two kilograms of gold coins. These things are worthless in the wasteland, and you can find a lot of them by just looting a city ruin. When you see a gold necklace on the way of exploration, you don't even want to bend down to pick it up.

The most valuable thing on a perilla fish is the gemstone, which I asked Pasha to get from someone.

As long as it is a world that uses gold and silver as currency, Su Ziyu would not dare to say that he is very rich, but he is more than qualified to be a local tycoon.

Unfortunately, the load capacity is limited.

Otherwise, Su Ziyu could carry more things.
