Pri extraordinary, but it being occupied by the Byzantium army was actually quite rare
Shaar was puzzled for a er since this had little to do with him No matter who became the owner, Primal Wildfire Toould still stay Primal Wildfire Town
However, when Shaar arrived under the city wall and saw several Byzantine E leather armor from up close, he couldn’t help but be stunned
These people were the same people as the mercenaries who had occupied here before! When Shaar arrived a few days ago, these people’s identity were still that of et into the town, one of them took his last copper plate as tax
Shaar remembered very clearly all the people who took money from his pocket!
Only a few days had passed; how could those fellows changed fro mercenaries into the Byzantine E at them stupefied, Shaar suddenly heard hoofbeat on the road behind hiular army’s mounted patrol rode towards him It looked like they’d just co light breastplates and carrying halberds rode with their heads held high and chest out They iate Each cavalryor and disciplined expression that only regular soldiers had, unlike these mercenaries
Shaar, who had only put on a normal dress, didn’t attract anyone’s attention when he entered the town Only after he entered Primal Wildfire Town, did he discover that the toas different than before
It was obvious that the street looked bleak On the square in front of the city there was a horseweekdays, ather here But now, it was quiet Depression loomed, and only sparse silhouettes could be seen
Even on the streets one couldn’t see the scene of people gathering up in front of merchants, and it appeared somewhat deserted Many family taverns and inns on the roadside were even closed and not doing business
From time to time, a Byzantine infantry squad would patrol inside the town These infantry wearing their , and appeared combative
The Black Alley was also deserted, and the streets filled with carpets were only a third as full as the past Many shops had closed their doors
Soed in Shaar’s mind – Could it be that Byzantine wanted to ruin Primal Wildfire Town? It was not the first that a country seized the city, but it had never transformed into such a run-down place
Shaar’s heart was filled with discontent since he just obtained a large su, but suddenly discovered that most shops were closed or deserted He couldn’t help but feel greatly disappointed Passing through Black Alley, he checked out the shop where he initially signed the contract to capture soical Beast cubs, and unexpectedly found out that its front door was also shut tightly, not open for business
Walking through Black Alley, Shaar turned at the corner and arrived at the long-awaited Powder Street Taking a quick look around, this hillbilly’s heart immediately lit up:
If you rode into the Powder Street in the past, you could be see prostitutes everywhere, long red sleeves waving fros From afar, one could already s a look now, the street was deserted and a gust of wind stirred up sos ran across the street……
Wo on the street!
Anger swelled up inside Shaar
If a man came here full of pride and hope, and encountered such a situation, no matter who he was, he would feel unhappy; let alone a in
Shaar walked past two blocks and found a tavern that he once repeatedly patronized before entering The tavern’s door was only half open and although it was still doing business, the huge lobby was almost empty, and only at two or three tables sat people
Behind the counter stood a tall thin one-eyed lass Watching Shaar co on a smile: “Did little Shaar co time now”
This shop was often visited by Shaar in the past, because not only was its black ale the cheapest in town, the most important reason was: This one-eyed man behind the bar, was Shaar’s love rival for three years – before Shaar grew up and understood things
Because ……This one-eyed felloas Aunt Sofia’s husband
Of course, this one-eyed hts, and Shaar didn’t have any hostility towards this guy He sat down and threw a gold coin on the counter
The one-eyed lance Putting the gold coin into hishis rotten tooth: “The little hunter got rich?”
He turned around and took out a bottle of superior tequila: “Here, this is the best we have and it’s yours”
Shaar had never tasted such nice liquor before and bit open the bottle cap before taking a sip While finishi+ng his sip, he sighed and said in a low voice: “Hey, what happened to the town? Why did all those mercenaries suddenly became Byzantine soldiers?”
