Hearthstone Farm Lord

Chapter 58 River Beach Town

After summoning Kawiz Luodian, Sean took Luodian, Anduin, and Wen Desor back to the camp of the city defense army.

Now Sean's experience value has reached level 13, 121/400, and there is still some distance to go before reaching level 14.

But now there are a lot of black iron monsters and ordinary beasts around the river beach town. If you kill them yourself, each black iron monster can provide 20-30 points of experience, and ordinary beasts can also provide 5-10 points experience.

By hunting (practicing) hunting (level) near River Beach Town, I believe that Sean will be able to rise to level 14 in a short time.

The [Number of followers that can be summoned at the same time] in the [Followers] module also changed the original "1" to "2", which means that Sean can summon his second follower.

But looking at his card library, Sean decided not to summon for the time being.

The follower that Sean wants to summon most now is undoubtedly the [Dwarf Marksman], because the weapon in his hand - the musket is what Sean wants to get most at this stage.

But the race of [Dwarf Marksman] is dwarves after all, it is very inconvenient to bring a dwarf by his side.

And there is no such thing as a musket in this world, so there is no way to explain it.

So Xiao En decided to summon the three cards [Dwarf Marksman] and [Elf] after the territory is stable.

After returning to the city defense army camp, Sean solemnly introduced to Lucio his "businessman" friend - Kawiz Luodian.

Lucio was not very interested in businessmen, so he just said a few words casually.

At this time, Matthew also crossed the thorn ridge and returned to the city defense camp.

Seeing Matthew's return, Sean and Lucio immediately came to Matthew's side.

"What's going on in River Beach Town? Matthew, have you found that necromancer?" Sean asked with concern.

"No." Matthew shook his head. "Just now I crossed Thorn Ridge and entered River Beach Town, but there are only a bunch of empty buildings left in River Beach Town, without a single living creature inside."

"How could this happen? Where are the townspeople and jackals inside?" Lucio lost his voice.

Matthew thought for a while and said, "According to my speculation, that necromancer should have been entrenched in River Beach Town before we reached Thorn Ridge.

Not only this necromancer, but also the semi-dead gnolls and beasts he controls are also in the town, and I found many traces left by the semi-dead gnolls inside.

But the necromancer may have received news of the regular army's attack, so he left the town and fled to the south into the elf forest. "

"It's actually like this." Sean couldn't help but sighed.

Originally, Xiao En left the large army and came to River Beach Town ahead of time for the residents of River Beach Town who were captured by Jackals.

Unexpectedly, the gnolls who captured the residents were controlled by necromancers.

It seems that the residents of this part of Hetan Town may be in danger.

Seeing Sean sigh, Lucio comforted: "Your Highness Sean, don't be sad, I have already sent a retinue knight back to the city of Yorn to deliver the news.

I believe that the Earl will definitely find a way to solve this problem.

Moreover, my original plan was to take Your Highness to Hetan Town, and then I would take the city defense troops back to Yoen City.

But now that there is such a thing as a necromancer, I decided to temporarily let the city defense army station in Hetan Town, and wait for the news from the Earl before making a decision. "

"Thank you so much, Lucio." Sean thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome! To be honest, I decided to stay for the delicious food. The 'Lian Palace Cookbook' is really well-deserved!" Lucio laughed.

The "Lian Palace recipe" that Lucio mentioned is actually the various delicacies that Sean directed Matthew to cook these days.

In addition to roasting meat, other cooking methods such as frying, stewing, frying, and frying are also used a lot.

In order to explain the source, Sean said that these are all recorded in the "Lian Court Cookbook", and Lucio obviously has these dishes.

"No problem, as long as the seasonings are still available, there will be enough barbecue for these few days!" Sean assured, "But Matthew is leaving, it seems that someone else will be cooking."

Sean's words were only halfway through, and Matthew hurriedly interrupted: "Your Highness Sean, I'm not in a hurry to leave. I'll stay in River Beach Town to protect you during this time!"

When Matthew said this, the black and white kitten on his shoulder scratched his neck fiercely, and even scratched two red marks.

However, Matthew's face did not change at all, and he still looked at Sean sincerely.

Sean waved his hand indifferently: "No problem, if you want to stay, you can stay, then should we go to River Beach Town now?"

Lucio looked up at the sky and said, "According to our current speed, we can reach River Beach Town before dark. I will order the city defense army to go now."

Lucio gave the city defense army an order to continue marching, and the soldiers of the city defense army began to support the wounded and continued to move towards Hetan Town.

Not long after, the city defense army climbed up Thorn Ridge.

Looking down from the Thorn Ridge, you can overlook the entire Hetan Town.

The entire Hetan Town is surrounded by mountains (ridges) and water. To the north of the town is Thorn Ridge, to the east is the Morning Star River, and to the south is the endless Forest of Elves.

Three very striking buildings stand in the town:
The first is the castle of the Viscount of the Lake, which is located in the westernmost part of the town;

The second is the Holy Light Church in the center of the town;

The third is a large manor on the west side of the town, almost one-third the size of the town, and it should be the manor of the Viscount of the Lake.

Apart from these three buildings, the rest are some low bungalows and thatched huts, which should be the residences of civilians.

A part of the stone wall on the south side of Hetan Town collapsed, which should have been destroyed when the wolf men invaded.

These are Sean's first impressions of River Beach Town.

Before the Black Death, River Beach Town was a very prosperous town. According to the housekeeper Henry, the permanent residents here once reached 2 people, which is not far behind the current city of Eoun.

However, after the outbreak of the Black Death, Hetan Town was severely hit, and its population was directly cut in half. In order to prevent the introduction of the Black Death, the Elf Kingdom also directly cut off trade with the human world.

After all, the elves are long-lived species, with a lifespan of up to a thousand years. The price is that reproduction is very difficult, and they cannot afford the huge loss of population.

(The reason why the dwarf kingdom did not cut off trade with the human world is because the dwarf plateau is geologically barren, and they cannot feed their huge population without the food supply of the human world.

In the end, the dwarf kingdom also paid a heavy price: one-fifth of its population was lost under the attack of the Black Death, and its strength was severely depleted. Finally, the capital was broken by the orc kingdom 100 years ago. )
Before the Jackals attacked, the population of River Beach Town had shrunk to 4000 people, and they mainly lived on farming and animal husbandry.

By the time Sean came to Thorn Ridge, the entire river beach was quiet and there was no living creature left.
