Chapter 20 Wells Town
[Leader - Boligelang:]
Taoist cultivation level: 10
Jumping: Boligelang has an excellent jumping ability, which allows him to move quickly.
Back kick: When the enemy is behind Boligelang, Boligelang can use a powerful back kick to attack the opponent.
Clever Tongue: Boligelang uses a long tongue filled with acid to lick and attack enemies. If the enemy is smaller than himself by a certain amount, he can swallow him whole.
Note: Its skin is wrinkled and its breath smells fishy. It leaps high into the clouds, but prefers to burrow into mud.
[Leader - Guardian]
Taoist cultivation level: 10
Triple Slash: Gu Huyuan picks up his giant axe and performs a random three-hit combo of vertical, horizontal, and diagonal slashes on the enemy.
Leaping Strike: Gu Huyuan dashes forward a short distance, then leaps high into the air, delivering a powerful blow to the enemy.
Giant Axe Charge: The Guardian buries his axe in the ground and then charges at the enemy with the giant axe. When he reaches the target, if the enemy's strength is no more than twice his own, he can launch them into the air.
Note: He was imposing and tall, over ten feet. Heavy armor hung from his waist, and he held a long halberd. His expression was fierce, his eyes dull and vacant. He appeared both foolish and wise, with a muddled demeanor.
Both bosses are pretty good, each with three skills. Their initial cultivation level is only 10, which is a bit lower than that of the Ghost, but it's not that important, since it can be improved anyway.
Afterwards, Lin Tian took the two leader monsters to test their combat power. Seeing the combat power displayed by the two monsters, Lin Tian showed a gratified smile. After confirming the strength of the two monsters, Lin Tian felt relieved and then turned his attention to matters related to the mine.
.........................
A small town in Wales.
As the most prosperous place in the surrounding area, Wells Town naturally has its own unique features. Compared with other impoverished towns, Wells Town, which has no military garrison, actually has walls that represent fortifications.
The wall wasn't very high, only about two or three meters, but that was still extremely rare. You see, although this was the kingdom's border, there were no foreign enemies attacking it. This was because it was right next to the Black Forest, and no country was willing to cross the Black Forest to attack this barren border. The effort and reward were completely disproportionate. Therefore, although this was the kingdom's border, it was poor, but there was not much war.
Even in the absence of war, Wells still built a wall around the town, making the town's mayor truly unpredictable.
"Wow, there are so many people..."
Looking at the long queue, Lin Tian couldn't help but sigh. He had already arrived at the gate of the town of Wells.
At the entrance to the town stood several militiamen in iron armor, in front of whom stood a long line of other visitors. Everyone entering Wells had to be checked by them.
Snapped!
A crisp sound attracted the attention of most of the group, and when Lin Tian also turned his gaze over, he saw a peasant woman with a flushed face and a soldier with a playful expression.
"What are you looking at? Stand still!"
Despite the contemptuous and disgusted looks from the crowd, the soldier did not restrain himself. Instead, he took advantage of the peasant woman's attempt to run away and then looked at the rest of the group with an extremely arrogant gaze.
Lin Tian remained silent, just like everyone else. However, his initial positive impression of Wells Town decreased slightly. He composed himself and put on a calm demeanor.
The procession moved forward quickly, and it was soon his turn. He was still wearing the same tiger-skin skirt suit, but this time he wasn't wearing a mask, mainly because wearing a mask would have been too conspicuous.
What are you doing in this small town?
Two soldiers stepped forward together, one questioning and the other searching the body.
"Let's do some business."
Lin Tian pretended to be honest and pointed to the bag he had placed to the side.
After confirming that Lin Tian was not carrying any dangerous items, the soldier who was searching him turned his attention to the bag.
The bag was opened, revealing a large quantity of dried meat inside.
Are you just here to do business?
The soldier continued to question, while simultaneously reaching into the bag.
"this......."
"Hmm! Let me check. Is there a problem?"
“No…no…”
The soldier chuckled at Lin Tian's honest and unassuming appearance, then began to tell Lin Tian about some things to be aware of in the town, while his hand kept reaching into his bag as he spoke.
Seeing Lin Tian's pained yet silent expression, the soldier completely lowered his guard. After grabbing a handful, he said to Lin Tian:
"Go inside, but don't cause trouble!"
"Good good."
Lin Tian readily agreed, then quickly picked up his bag and hurried inside, as if afraid the soldiers would take all the jerky they had given him.
"Haha, look at him."
Seeing Lin Tian's panicked escape, the soldier couldn't help but laugh and quickly patted his colleague's shoulder, mocking Lin Tian.
Lin Tian entered Wells Town amidst their mocking laughter.
Although he didn't know the exact number of people in Wells, Lin Tian knew from the lively scene that it was at least a town of a thousand. As he walked along, he saw a large number of stalls and shops, with vendors calling out their wares one after another, creating a very lively atmosphere.
"Sir, would you like a tour guide?"
Just as Lin Tian was still in a daze, a childish voice came from the side. Lin Tian looked over and saw a gray-faced child.
I have no money.
Lin Tian wasn't telling the truth. In fact, he did possess the country's currency. He found over a thousand coins that looked like copper in the ruins of Black Forest Village. He stored all of these coins in his system's inventory, which is why they weren't discovered by the guards during the inspection at the entrance.
The reason Lin Tian said he had no money was because he didn't know the purchasing power of copper coins. He lied about having no money because he was afraid of being ripped off.
"It's okay, you can pay with something else."
"Other things?"
Lin Tian pretended to be a little confused, while the child opposite him licked his lips.
"I smelled meat on the gentleman."
Hooked.
Lin Tian appeared nonchalant, but a hint of joy flickered in his heart. The little boy had sharp eyes and had noticed the jerky he had deliberately shown.
What he had no shortage of was dried meat, and knowing the purchasing power of copper coins, he preferred to pay with dried meat.
"Then... shall I have one?"
"One piece!"
The child quickly snatched the jerky from Lin Tian's hand, as if afraid he would change his mind.
"Deal! You're so generous, boss! I wish you great fortune!"
So, spurred on by a piece of jerky, the child led Lin Tian on a tour of the town.
