Chapter 683 Son of the Devil

Latest website: In the spring of 1543 AD, three years have passed since the resurgence of the third demonic tide, and it is also the third year after the end of the Ten Years' War in the Old Continent.

Return Island is an island located in the first half of the golden channel between the old and new continents. The golden channel starts from Blackfire Island close to the old continent, passes through Storm Gorge, Giant Island, Gold Coast, Pearl Bay, Twin Islands and finally reaches Moon Bay. Return Island is adjacent to Storm Gorge is a gathering place for merchant ships coming and going.

Although it is still daytime at the Hammer Tavern, the business here is already very booming. At this time, the storm in the Storm Gap has entered a weakening stage. More and more merchant ships are gathering here, preparing to pass through the Storm Gap and head to the New World.

"Hey, have you heard that the entire city of Komit in the Kingdom of Sivers has disappeared?"

In a corner of the tavern, a strong man with a beard said in a rather mysterious tone.

Hearing this, some of his companions were intrigued.

"Really or not? Komit City is a relatively large city in Sifors, with a population of hundreds of thousands. How could it disappear out of thin air?"

"This is indeed true, but no one knows why. Some say that cultists sacrificed the entire city to the evil god, while others say that a monster woke up and swallowed the city of Kermit in one go. ”

Before the bearded man could speak, someone from the table next to him answered.

"It's nonsense. If you swallow a city in one mouth, how big the monster will be. It's completely nonsense."

After a can of beer, someone spoke up and retorted, and the tavern suddenly became more and more lively.

"Hey, have you heard that Baron Fargas of the Kingdom of Sutilt gave birth to a demon? When he was born, he was accompanied by sinful flames, which directly burned the entire Fargas territory to white ground. In the end, there was a storm. It was only the church priests who took action to stop the spread of the fire."

The quarrel disappeared as quickly as it came, and soon people changed the subject again.

"I know, you are talking about the devil's son Soiri Fargas. A year ago, everyone was happy that the benevolent Baron Fargas finally had a descendant, but no one expected that the descendant would be It’s a demon.”

As he spoke, there was a hint of sadness in the speaker's words.

"Son of the devil?"

"Yes, son of the devil,

It was rumored that Soiri Fargas disappeared after the fire. The Church of Storms and the Kingdom officials simultaneously issued a wanted order for him, codenamed Son of the Devil, with a bounty of 1,000 gold galleons. "

When this topic was mentioned, more and more people participated, especially after the bounty amount of 1,000 gold galleons appeared, which detonated the whole audience. For everyone present, 1,000 gold galleons is not a small amount. If they can get it, then maybe they can retire earlier.

"Don't think about it. If the devil's son was so easy to catch, the people from the Kingdom and the Church would have already succeeded."

Seeing the greed in everyone's eyes, the person who had just spoken sneered. Hearing this, some people extinguished the greed in their eyes, but more people were still burning in their hearts. After all, wealth touches people's hearts, and it doesn't mean that the Kingdom and the Church can't catch it. I can't catch it either.

"That's true, but after all, the devil's son is just a one-year-old baby. Is he really still alive?"

"Tch, ignorance. The son of the devil was born with the ability to control flames. He obviously possesses extraordinary power. How can such a character be compared with ordinary children."

Unconsciously, the topic took another turn.

"There is indeed nothing surprising. The Kingdom and the Church will definitely not issue rewards at will. Besides, haven't there been many weird things happening in recent years?"

As soon as these words came out, many people nodded in agreement.

Since the return of the gods three years ago, the whole world has changed. Originally, everyone thought that life would get better after the Ten Years' War in the Old Continent, but they did not expect that this was not the case. All kinds of weird things happened one after another, such as pets that suddenly became demonized. , man-eating monsters wandering in the dark night of the city, etc., and various cults have become rampant. The most important thing is that the overall food production of the Old Continent has dropped by a large level in recent years, and a lot of food production has not Countries with high levels of food shortages have emerged.

"Compared to last year, the total grain output of the Sievers Kingdom has dropped again this year."

"Sifus? The same is true of the Kingdom of Sutilt."

At this moment, the tavern is like a pot of boiling water. Compared with those strange things that are not known to be true or false, the food production is more likely to resonate with everyone. After all, everyone needs to eat.

"Hey, how will we live if we continue like this?"

After drinking a glass of beer, someone sighed.

After hearing this, many people felt sad for a while, and of course, some also felt disdain.

"What are you sighing about? Didn't you make your fortune in the past two years by transferring food between the old and new continents?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at the person who had sighed before. But at this time, that guy seemed to be drunk by a glass of beer. He fell on the table, and boos broke out all over the place.

"But seriously, have you ever considered immigrating to the New World? Compared to the Old World, the New World seems to have not been affected much in recent years. It exports a large amount of food to the Old World every year."

"I've thought about it, but it's that easy. All my roots are in the Old Continent, so I can just move if I can."

"Yes, the New World is a barbaric land after all, while the Old World is prosperous."

"And it's not that the New World has not been affected. It's the believer of the Holy Oak Church who took pity on him and gave him a magical medicine sequence called agriculture. I heard that extraordinary people who walk on this path can solve the curse of the land. The problem."

Having said this, the person who spoke lowered his voice, but everyone was aroused with strong interest. For a while, some secrets about the Holy Oak Church in the New World began to spread in this tavern.

"You have worked so hard to become a transcendent just to be a weakling?"

"What do you mean by Mud Legs? That's called a new farmer. Moreover, this magic potion sequence is strictly controlled by the Green Field officials and the Holy Oak Church. Except for their internal staff, no one else can get it at all. That's what you want to be." It’s impossible even with muddy legs.”

"Tsk, I think to become a transcendent you need to be a knight."

As they talked, the quarrel reappeared, and at this time, someone kicked open the door of the tavern.

"The Antler Chamber of Commerce will be leaving soon. If you want to form a team, sign up as soon as possible."

Looking around the tavern, the visitor spoke loudly.

After hearing this, many people stood up quickly. Over the years, the Green Field Leader has made great efforts to dredge the golden waterway and maintain the stability of the waterway. However, various dangers still emerge in endlessly. For small merchants, it is difficult to compare with a large and reputable company. It is a very good choice to have chambers of commerce affiliated together. Even if you have to pay a small fee, it is still worth it. As an island adjacent to Storm Gorge, Return Island is a place that has been agreed upon. Many merchant ships will gather here, and then Set out together.

"I signed up, I signed up."

The shouts sounded, and at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and a huge star fell from the sky, smashing into the Storm Gorge with unparalleled power.
