Chapter 747: Danic Town
After bursts of thunder, rain fell from the sky, and the residents of the town ended their day's work early.
Adventurers returned to the tavern in the rain, farmers returned home, and street vendors began to pack up their stalls.
Once the rain starts falling at this time of year, it won’t stop in a short time.
As smoke rose from the chimney and laughter was heard from the pub, the sky gradually darkened.
It adds a bit of life to the town.
At this time, in the forest not far from the town, five figures were carrying a wild boar and walking quickly towards the town in the drizzle.
This wild boar weighing at least 400 kilograms was hung by its limbs and fixed to a thick tree trunk, carried by two people, one in front and one behind.
The leather boots on his feet left deep footprints on the path in the forest, leaving behind small puddles.
However, the two of them easily carried the 400-kilogram wild boar, and were able to maintain balance and a good speed in such bad weather, which was enough to show their physical strength.
As if they knew that it would be rainy recently, each of the five people wore a straw raincoat and a hood. Although their faces were still covered with rain, it could not hide their happy smiles.
Although the pace was quickening, there was still some cheerful and relaxed conversation and laughter between them.
"Cover up, don't let our baby get wet."
The man carrying the wild boar at the back couldn't help but remind him when he saw that the large leaves covering the pig's belly were a little loose.
"I know, I know. Don't worry."
A young woman with a hunched back and a dark skin next to her, who looked healthy and energetic, smiled and took out the bottom two of the dozen huge banana leaves in her hand and covered the pig's belly with them.
"This stupid thing is even stronger than a regular knight. If it hadn't fallen into our trap, it would have been difficult to deal with."
Next to him was a middle-aged man in a straw raincoat with a stubbled beard on his face. He was also feeling a little emotional while being alert to the situation around him.
This prey has already gone beyond the category of wild beasts and entered the category of Warcraft. For this scattered team consisting of only one retired knight, it is quite rare to be able to deal with it.
When he was serving in the army in the past, he once became a formal knight, but later he was injured on the battlefield and left with a chronic illness.
All the savings and achievements over the years were used to take care of my body. I bought a lot of expensive medicines and only then did I recover partially.
But even now, he couldn't fight with all his strength, and he only had the foundation of a formal knight.
If I were to confront this wild boar head-on now, I would definitely not be able to withstand it.
But fortunately, this thing was stupid and fell into the trap.
I caught this thing during the rainy season, and now I can take a break...
But at this moment, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and when he was about to leave the forest, he saw a hiking figure in front of him.
The figure was wearing a cloak and seemed to be just strolling along the forest path, letting the rain wet his whole body.
Generally speaking, when you meet strangers in the wild, especially in the forest , you will try to keep a safe distance to avoid any emergencies.
Sometimes people are more dangerous than monsters.
But for some reason, when Dali saw the figure's back, he felt that the other person was not dangerous.
When he was about to overtake the team, he subconsciously asked
"Friend, the town of Danik is just ahead. You seem unfamiliar here."
After retiring, Dali has been hanging around in this hometown. With his background as a formal knight, he is somewhat of a celebrity in the town. The strongest Baron Danic in the town is just a formal knight.
Wang Yi smiled after hearing the greeting from the other party.
"I'm just a traveler who wants to take a break."
The other party would take the initiative to talk to him, which was the "human kindness" that Wang Yi imposed on himself.
It's not a magic of forced manipulation, but in the absence of any conflict of interest or subjective malice, it's easy to gain first-hand favor.
The concentration of magic here is much higher than on Earth, and it is easier to use.
With the help of spells such as "understanding languages" and "understanding text", Wang Yi has covered the town here with his powerful mental power, learned basic text and language and gained a preliminary understanding.
At that time, it can be directly added to the player's body to complete the built-in translation.
The small town of Danic is located on the edge of the Monster Forest, but the surrounding area is close to the outskirts of the forest and there are no troublesome monsters.
On the contrary, due to the location of the town of Danik, from time to time some adventurers and explorers who want to go into the forest to hunt will stay here temporarily.
This is the town’s main source of income besides agriculture and hunting, as well as a means of exchanging some materials with the outside world.
Because it is only a perception coverage, it is not convenient to actively ask some questions, and the passive understanding is still somewhat messy. In order not to attract the attention of the world's will, Wang Yi will not carry out long-term coverage.
So he was also ready to go in and look for opportunities to take the initiative to guide.
He had already sensed the hunting party behind him, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He just used the word "human-friendly" and prepared to follow them into the town to avoid some unnecessary trouble.
The town is surrounded by solid wooden walls made of wooden piles. Outside the wooden walls, there is even a canal dug along the adjacent river channel that circles the town. It looks a bit like a small moat.
There are slanted sharp wood on the wooden wall. If you want to jump over the narrow canal directly, you will be easily pierced. There are also some household garbage and even garbage floating in the canal. Overall, the defense of this town seems to be quite good.
There were two entrances to the suspension bridges, and some militiamen were guarding them.
At present, it seems that it is mainly used to prevent wild beasts and possible robbers.
Through the defense of this small town, we can also see that at least in this area, the people are quite tough and not very peaceful...
"Ah, you're just walking around by yourself, are you a bard?"
The girl in leather armor who was holding a banana leaf and carrying a bow and arrow also slowed down her pace and asked curiously.
He dares to go around alone, he must be very strong, maybe he is an official knight like the captain!
At the very least, he is a top-level knight squire.
"A bard?"
Wang Yi smiled but did not deny it.
"If you think so, then it's okay..."
He also sold songs and was a bard with his own works, which was pretty cool.
Because of the influence of the spell "Human Goodwill", the five-member adventure team began to unconsciously keep in sync with Wang Yi and started chatting with him.
This is not some kind of control magic, but it has some guiding and suggestive effects. With Wang Yi's ability, even if he uses it sparingly, the effect is still very powerful.
At least this group of people didn't notice anything wrong.
You're in a good mood after having hunted a high-quality prey, so it's normal to show off to a passerby on the street, right?
After a fisherman has caught something, won't he always change the subject , "How did you know I caught a big catch?"
So I started chatting with others in a somewhat excited mood, which is normal.
Did you see our wild boar? It's a beast comparable to a real knight! The one I hunted today is not heavy, just a thousand pounds!
