Monarch of Evernight

At this point, a fat middle-aged man came running all the way, rushing to the front of the thousand nights before stopping, bending over and gasping: “Are you the leader? The dwarf is the mayor of Black Mud. In the future, please take extra care of Master Thousand Nights! ”

Thousands of nights, he weighed a little and was slightly surprised that the fat man was a second-degree soldier.

After looking at the situation in Dark Mud Town, a thousand nights have discovered that it is completely different from Lighthouse Town, neither important nor dangerous, than the calm town he once lived in. In this way, Hu Wei can hold the position of mayor only at the second level, either with higher strength than the rank, or with some background. But if there's a background, where can't we find a steady camper and come here to die?

"Mayor Hu, what's going on? ”

Hu Weiwei smiled: “This town is yours in the future, don't ever call me mayor again. You can call me Hu Hu if you don't mind. ”

Look at the wrinkles on this face. I don't know if it's more than 40 or less fat people. I frowned a thousand nights ago. "What's wrong with these people? ”

Hu Wei glanced at the homeless people and said: "They are all waste-pickers and depend on collecting medicines and resources in the Great Marsh for their livelihood. But only a few of them are real drug collectors, and the rest are lucky guys. ”

Drug mining is a technical activity, otherwise there is not only the risk of mistaken appearance of similar drugs, some separate harmless plants put together may also become highly toxic. But it is also a highly unprofitable business, much more valuable than the scrap metals found everywhere on the continent at night, so the waste-pickers still tend to flourish.

At this time of the thousand nights, he was standing at the entrance of an alley, looking at it, a dozen meters long alley, at least twenty or thirty people lay down. These sleeping hobos heard voices and sat up, staring at the night with a wild eye and pointing a finger at them.

A thousand nights suddenly saw the other end of the alley walk past a shadow!

It was a seemingly ordinary adventurer, wrapped around a dark cloak, completely invisible. However, his gait posture gave him the feeling of not being able to speak at night, as if he was not walking flat, but floating on the water!

“Wait!” He rushed right into the alley at night, but the bums were too crowded to find a place to put their feet.

Seeing the thousands of nights rushing in, the homeless people, not knowing what to think, mostly moved, some deliberately lifted their legs to create more obstacles, others directly reached out to catch the thousands of nights. Look at those greedy eyes, and you'll know that if they pull you down at night, you'll be stripped of everything in your eyes.

How is it possible to be stopped by these ordinary people at a thousand nights? He jumped up, took a few steps on the side wall of the building, jumped on the roof, and chased in the direction of the adventurer's invisible figure.

But such a delayed kung fu looked down at the scaly roof in front of him at night, and there was no trace of the shadow passing. The gloomy light projected on the ground in clumps and squares of light. Most of the tramps lying in the open were asleep and there was no disturbance in the town.

The mind of the thousand nights is slightly heavy, so fast and body, not worse than Gu Li Yu, still above him. After a thousand nights of sweeping the whole town, he still couldn't see anything different. He jumped off the roof and landed in front of Hu Wei.

“Sir, was that... your friend?” Hu Wei tries to ask.

“No, that's a bloodline, an advanced bloodline. ”

Hu suddenly frightened a fat face and shouted sharply, then immediately lowered his voice and asked: "High blood! How tall?”

“At least it should be a jazz. ”

The answer almost made Hu Wei faint and said with a trembling voice: "Sir, Sir! Why are you here? There's nothing in a little place like ours! ”

“Someone is enough.” An expeditionary officer intervened next to him.

“Impossible, the town is populous, but how could a high-ranking bloodline look like this?” Hu Huai almost screamed, but he also knew that such things could not be yelled at, so that the volume could be easily controlled.

Thousands of nights were slightly surprised, and I looked at Hu once more. How did a mayor in Frontier Town know about this kind of thing?

The empire's propaganda of the bloodline is rather extreme and simple. Just because ordinary civilians are close to blood slaves and fear contagion, they know that the empire has no intention of spreading and disseminating knowledge. Even a thousand nights in an elite regiment has no right to know about this confidentiality.

It was not until he had sucked blood himself that he realized that the attraction of biological blood to the bloodline was actually due to the forces involved. Especially for high-ranking blood families, it is true that only the blood rich in the Force will cause their appetite. Strays like these who have no power at all are washed away and put in front of them, afraid and reluctant to enter.

Hu Wei glanced at the homeless people in the alley and suddenly rushed up. He kicked a homeless man to the ground, kicking him hard and shouting: “Don't you dare stop the grown-up road! What a blind dog! Had it not been for you, the adult would have caught the bloodline! I didn't hurt you today. I really thought this town was yours! ”

Hu Wei seemed to feel that kicking was just addictive. He pulled another whip out of his arms. Without his head, he smoked it down against the homeless people. He beat them to the Wolf of Ghosts. He even rolled and climbed. The alley between his eyes was empty.

These hobos seem to be very afraid of Hu Hui and dare not to resist at all, only to flee.

“These bitches can't fight all day!” He gasped. The whip just now, he jumped up and down, he actually did a lot of work.

Thousand nights, after a circle in town, I looked everywhere, and this followed Hu Wei to his house.

Located in the heart of Dark Mud Town, the mayor's residence is a sturdy stone building on three floors. Small, narrow windows make the whole small building look like a miniature castle.

Walking into the small building, Hu Wei's room was found on the third floor, the second on the second floor, the kitchen and the residence of the Expeditionary Army stationed officers on the first floor. So there's not a lot of places in this little building that really belong.

Take a walk up and down and sit on the third floor at night in a small meeting room. Standing in the room, it seemed like you could reach both sides of the wall with your arms outstretched, and three or four people sat in it and it was crowded.

“Seems like you haven't seen your family? ”

Hu Weiwei laughed bitterly: "My lord, how can you be a family if you stay in such a shithole? Who knows when those black-blooded bastards will come out of the swamp, and then don't say hold on, you can't escape, that's death. ”

After a pause, Hu Wei softened his voice and said: “Actually, I have a child who is now in foster care at his aunt's house in Red Pine City...” His tone became softer, as if he had a feeling of being a father.

Thousands of nights and Hu Wei chatted for a while to learn about the environment and history of the Black Mud Marsh. Speaking of which, Hu Wei suddenly remembered something and almost jumped, shocked: “There is also a superior blood family in town! ”

"What does that matter? ”

Hu Huai immediately realized why he had not ordered the entire town to search during the thousands of nights, and the expeditionary officers next to him did not move. In a complex environment like Dark Mud Town, it is easy for an upper-blood clan with a title to hide its tracks or escape into the swamp. There is no better way to deal with this enemy than to lay a trap and wait for him to jump in.

And in a thousand words, there is normally nothing in Black Mud Town that deserves the attention of a jazz unless there's something hidden here.

Hu Wei figured out that when he came out of cold sweat, he hurriedly expressed his innocence, then frowned and thought, muttering: “Where is there anything good about me that deserves a big man like Jazz to run for himself? ”

Thousands of nights look like nothing but hypocrisy, and he didn't expect to easily discover anything. He just said: "No, it's not. It's better if that blood clan appeared as an accident. My fighters will be here in two days to take over the defense, about 200 men. You make some arrangements in advance. ”

Hu Wei immediately set aside his restless worries and was happy to rub his hands together. "Don't worry, my lord, I will serve them well! ”

Thousand Nights looked at Hu Wei in a strange way and asked, laughing and not smiling: "Do you want my people to come here so much? ”

Thousand nights of questioning said otherwise. It is well known that the Imperial Corps is not very disciplined and that the Expeditionary Army is particularly well known in this regard. In the name of hunting blood slaves, the Expeditionary Force can do whatever they want. This has been seen more than once in a thousand nights, but also physically. As for the mercenary corps, the slight decrease is due to insufficient strength and authority, not the other way around, and the distinction between mercenaries and bandits is not evident in the wilderness.

As for the elite army of Red Scorpions, which is home to thousands of nights, there are few disturbing movements. This is not how disciplined the military is, but how well they are supplied, and that little thing in the hands of the civilian population does not get into the eyes of the elite legions. Yet in another area, the elite regiment can be described notoriously as the so-called 'casualty indicator’. In the eyes of local officials and small nobles, the elite legions are as terrible as the dark races.

So as the lowest bureaucrat in the empire, Hu Huai should pay tribute to the Expeditionary Army and the mercenaries. The most common scenario is that the mayor is armed and not weak at the same time in order to be eligible to split with the Expeditionary Force.

Hu Weiwei laughed bitterly: “Even the jazz appeared, which means the war is not far away. Besides, I'm so poor in this place, the Expeditionary Army leaders can take everything they want, as long as they can hold the town. But that's it, and fewer and fewer people are willing to come. But, my lord, how did you find out it was a high-ranking blood family? ”

“Experience." A thousand nights is a simple answer.

In fact, it is the upper blood family that may be too confident to find him strong in such a small colony as humans, without any convergence in its breath, the power of the rich blood, caused the sensation of gold and purple blood in the body for a thousand nights, and was therefore seen to be missing.

Thousand nights didn't mean to rest, he ordered Hu to prepare some dry food, took his gear and left town alone, ready to go into the dark mud swamp for the night.
