Chapter 1013 A Small Border Country
When they arrived at the territory of the Disaster Lizard, the surrounding environment was very different. The air became cold, the sky darkened, and tall grass was everywhere.
Lu Yu continued to walk forward. He sensed something was wrong and was definitely in the enemys territory.
However, Jack told Lu Yu that they were still far from the territory of the Disaster Lizards. “We’re near a small country called Tianwu Kingdom. This country advocates martial arts and relies on hunting for a living. All the ferocious beasts around them are their prey.” “Everyone in Tianwu Kingdom is a martial artist, and strong ones. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for them to survive in such a difficult environment.”
Lu Yu was curious. “There’s a small country in this place?” “That’s right. This country isn’t big. It’s still far from the nest of the Disaster
Lizards, so they can still survive.” “But if one day the Disaster Lizard erupts and attacks with a beast tide, I’m afraid the entire country will be trampled.” “Of course, I’ve been here before. I’ve been to a lot of places when I was out hunting. I like to take risks, so I’ve been to Tianwu Kingdom once.” “However, the experience there isn’t very good. The people are more irritable.
Moreover, there are many clans and forces that’re united. It’s not easy to survive here.”
Jack looked at Lu Yu and sighed. “However, Brother Lu Yu has the protection of a giant dragon. These people will definitely not be able to do anything to you. Moreover, if you help them get rid of their biggest threat, the Disaster Lizard, they will definitely thank you respectfully. It’s even possible that the whole country will be grateful to you.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly. “In that case, let me see how tough this small country is.” “Do you still want to continue on the road ahead? Or you can go back.”
Lu Yu asked Jack.
Jack shrugged naturally. “I’ll go with you.” “You guys continue hunting in the jungle,” he told the people behind him. “Go back in the evening and don’t wander around.” “Alright, Captain. You should come back early too.” “We’ll leave first. Be careful.”
The rest of the team said their goodbyes to Jack and turned to leave. “Let’s go.” Jack looked at Lu Yu and said, “We should be arriving at the small border city of Tianwu Kingdom, Blackwater City.” “The scale of that city is not large and just has a population of around 100,000.
There are also a few families entrenched within it. Although they are not strong, the competition is quite fierce.” “The last time I came to Tianwu Kingdom, I first came to this small city and experienced some unpleasant things.”
Jack spoke non-stop, as if he had endless stories to tell Lu Yu.
From afar, they saw an ancient city.
There were ancient stone walls, a few sentry towers nearby, and troops setting up camp in the distance. The city was well protected. “The protection is so tight. Can outsiders enter?” “Feel free to enter. They also want to do business with the outside world.”
Lu Yu nodded slightly and walked toward the city gate. “It’s not dark yet. After we go in, we can find a hotel to stay at for the night.”
Soon, the two of them arrived at the city gate.
Immediately, Lu Yu saw the fully-armed soldiers at the city gate. They were always on standby, ready to face a strong enemy attack at any time.
Lu Yu looked around. The surroundings were a little desolate. However, there were quite a few ferocious beasts around. If they only relied on hunting, it would be difficult to feed these 100,000 people. Fortunately, they knew how to farm.
Lu Yu passed through the city gate and entered the city.
The city was filled with stone-brick houses, giving off an age-old atmosphere.
Although the Ember Empire was about the same, they were prosperous.
This place was not only backward but also slightly desolate. As Lu Yu came from the Freedom Federation, it was as if he had come to two different worlds.
As soon as they entered the city gate, they saw a group of people passing through the main road in a high-profile manner.
Lu Yu looked over and was surprised to see a giant rhinoceros lying on a massive carriage. Its body was almost as big as the surrounding stone-brick houses. It was surprising.
These hunters could fight monsters with such a big difference in size. They were not ordinary people.
Lu Yu looked at Jack. “Do you know the exact location of the Disaster Lizard?” “I don’t know. However, some explorers from the Tianwu Kingdom went deep? into the nest of the Disaster Lizard. About a hundred people went in, but only one or two came back.” “Even so, the Tianwu Kingdom has already grasped the exact location of the Disaster Lizard. However, this is of course kept a secret so that others won’t be sent to their deaths.” “In that case, if I want to hunt the Disaster Lizard, I need to find the King of the Tianwu Kingdom first. Only then can I find out the location of the lizard?”
Jack nodded slightly. “Yes, that’s about it.” “Or you can just attack the capital, find the king, and interrogate him.”
In Jack’s opinion, Lu Yu was so powerful that he shouldn’t be afraid of the
King of the Tianwu Kingdom.
Lu Yu shook his head slightly. “I don’t even know where their capital is placed.
How can I start a fight rashly? How about this? I’ll find the Lord of Blackwater City first and interrogate him first.”
Lu Yu raised his head and looked at the team before him. They were beating gongs and drums to celebrate. They seemed very happy that they had hunted the giant rhino, as it was enough for the entire city to eat for a while. “Hello,” Lu Yu said as he walked toward the group. “I would like to ask where the City Lord of Blackwater City is. I want to see him and have something important to do.” “City Lord? Why are you looking for him? He’s in the Xu family now.”
Lu Yu frowned slightly. The Xu family…
The faces of the people here were similar to those of the Freedom Federation.
They were the same kind of people. “Where is the Xu family?” “Follow us. We’re going to the Xu family!”
The hunter behind the carriage said it excitedly. “Which family are you from?”
Lu Yu asked. “Are you an outsider? We’re from the Zhao family. We will be taking this giant rhinoceros to help our young master propose his marriage!”
Lu Yu was enlightened. No wonder this group of people was so happy. It turned out that there was a proposal going on.
Lu Yu nodded slightly and continued to follow behind them. “What do you plan to do when we find the City Lord?” Jack asked. “Do we just attack?” “No, I’m not that vulgar. Since they’re here to attend the wedding, let them finish.” “Alright, but with your strength, even if you attack directly, they won’t be able to do anything..”
