Chapter 88 Five Pairs of Road Wheels

The crowd on the street was still bustling, but it was obviously much quieter than before. Both the stall owner and the passers-by were looking in the direction of the Viscount's Mansion with some doubts at the moment.

There, there was a red-red, very tall horse that was slowly slowing down. This horse was extremely strong, over two meters high, and released amazing heat. The steaming heat wave distorted the surrounding air.

Obviously, this is a warhorse with the blood of Yanlong and a monster level.

But the most surprising thing is that this horse is quite docile. It noticed the crowd around it and deliberately chose a road that would not bump into anyone. Therefore, although the gallop just now sounded extremely uninhabited, in fact the entire street Except for those who were taken aback, they were basically unaffected.

The rider was dismounting. He was wearing a full-body heavy armor with black background and gold trim. The golden sun eye emblem was branded on his right arm. The iron-can-like helmet covered his face, leaving only a T-shaped observation breathing passage.

"It's the emissary of the imperial capital!"

Ian heard that the owner of the jewelry store on the side was half excited, half sad and said: "It seems that the help from the imperial capital is finally coming—but why is he in such a hurry?"

"Is there any bad news..." Most of the surrounding residents were suspicious.

"Visitor from the imperial capital?" whispered to himself, Ian didn't know why the boss was worried, and the other party's uneasiness was obviously an instinctive warning after too much experience.

And he also narrowed his eyes: "It really doesn't feel right. I have seen ordinary aid caravans, and the process is obviously not like this."

Pressing doubts, he raised his head and stared intently at the Viscount's mansion.

The envoy of the imperial capital came straight to the gate of the Viscount's Mansion. He was not domineering. Facing the gate of the Viscount's Mansion that had not been fully repaired, he still showed his token to the guard very politely - not long after, Ian saw an attendant leading the door. Two knights entered the mansion, and Viscount Grant was already waiting at the door.

Even with Ian's eyesight, seeing these was the limit. He could only vaguely notice that the envoy from the imperial capital did not enter the mansion, but began to report the news after saluting to the viscount.

This news is obviously extremely shocking, because even if the details are not clear, Ian can clearly feel the sudden increase of water vapor in the surrounding air even when the weather is very clear, just like a precursor to a heavy rain.

——That was the reaction of the Viscount, who was a sublimator of the second energy level, losing control of his emotions for a moment, and it could even be said to be 'extremely shocked'!

Even when he fought against the great shaman and the crocodile dragon with the etheric armed forces, Viscount Grant's mood swings were probably not as violent as they are now.

After the report was over, the envoy of the imperial capital saluted again, and then politely took his leave.

He rode on the tall horse with the blood of Yanlong, galloped the royal horse, and left in a hurry.

No one knows exactly what the envoy and the viscount exchanged.

But then, as the financial officer, the magistrate, and even Elder Pude and others went to the Viscount's Mansion, and even the village chiefs, mercenaries, and militia leaders of several surrounding villages rushed from outside the city, everyone We all know that something big is going to happen.

The crowd dispersed slowly amidst the uneasiness, and the owner of the jewelry store also muttered absently, "Sure enough, you can't count on the empire", and returned to his store with a sigh.

However, Ian did not leave the jewelry store, but stood by the alley, observing the movement of the Viscount's mansion.

He had plenty of time to wait for the outcome of this matter.

In fact, Ian is not the only one who has the same idea—although Harrison Port is still in the reconstruction period, those who still have some spare time have not left.

They knew very well that if there was any major event, the Viscount would go to the square later to spread the word, and they would be able to get first-hand information.

In this southern border on the edge of human civilization, even the high-ranking lord must work together with his people most of the time.

This may be the only benefit of the barren land.

However, before the viscount, it was the support convoy from the imperial capital that appeared earlier.

"Moo-"

The majestic roar of the beast resounded from outside the city, but it could also be clearly heard in the harbor, and the sound of continuous trampling could be vaguely heard, and the ground trembled slightly under the steps of the beasts.

"This is……"

Ian's expression changed, he seemed to hear something from the roar of the beast, and opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly there was another roar of the beast, and this time the roar of the beast had already come to the city.

Dust rose from the city gate, and dark shadows came from the avenue, slowly entering the warehouse area under the watchful eyes of everyone in Port Harrison.

And Ian also saw the source of the roar.

It was a cow.

An unbelievably huge cow.

The body more than three meters high is like a moving house, with tinkling wind chimes hanging from the long horns that bend upwards on the top of the head, and the unexpectedly docile eyes are like gems, and every movement of the body bound by the yoke can be clearly seen Thick and clear muscle groups are contracted and moved layer by layer, overflowing with incomparable vitality.

"Byson Cow..."

Looking at the majestic giant beast, Ian murmured to himself, and he couldn't help recalling the origin of the name of the Baisen Mountains: "The giant beasts that inhabit the snow-covered area in the northern part of the Baisen Mountains are worth five hundred towers each." Le, one of the most expensive and powerful mortal beasts..."

When Hilliard explained to him the knowledge and distribution of many monsters in Nanling Province, he still explained to Ian the Bison giant bull alone-although it does not have any sublimation elements, its strength surpasses most of the first abilities Above the super monster, and docile and intelligent, can fight and live with recognized partners.

"Don't think that because you are a sublimator, you can look down on ordinary beasts... You are too young, and your body is not yet fully developed, not to mention that no matter how sublimated a human body is, it will be the same."

"Even if it's a monster, it can't beat many strong beasts simply by relying on pure physical strength."

This is an example used by the teacher to warn Ian to be humble and cautious, not to be overconfident because of the improvement of strength.

Although Ian has always been cautious, he doesn't mind being more cautious.

It should be noted that the mountain people in the past relied on [-] 'bullriders' to block the advance of the imperial halberd heavy infantry regiment. Although this record still could not affect their subsequent defeat, the mountain people still had two A large autonomous region is due to this campaign, not to mention the fact that the reputation of the mountain people's valor has spread throughout the empire.

"An ordinary cow costs more than 200 talers. I originally thought why a cow is so expensive, and a cow costs [-]... Now, I am afraid that this may be the internal price that the teacher had something to do with it. The actual market price has doubled." There are absolutely more times than that!”

The huge convoy drove into the city, and the house-like truck made Ian's breathing even more difficult.

Not because it was big, but mainly because Ian saw that the truck had five pairs of road wheels—and tracks!
　I recommend a new book for newcomers, "The Golden Years of Rebirth" The wonderful campus life of old social animals.

At that time we still had dreams, about literature, about love, about traveling across the world
