Chapter 638 Luxurious Manor
The new city area is close to the west pier where Monger Manor is located.
Of course.
Given its size, it is no problem to call it a city within a city.
The outer wall is a solid wall more than four meters high, with dense transparent silk nets entangled on the top.
The raw materials of these silk nets come from a strange spider in the deep region. The silk threads it spits out are extremely difficult to detect when not touched, but when an uninformed person mistakenly enters it, he will be immediately entangled by the tough and sticky silk threads.
The most important point is.
The movement produced when the spider web is touched will attract the attention of that strange spider, and it will try to send the captured prey back to its nest by a short astral shuttle.
This kind of spider can be raised to monitor, block and even capture intruders.
Of course.
It can be sent from the deep region to the ground, and the food needed to raise it can only be transported from the deep region, and the cost is also extremely high.
Therefore, only very few occasions, such as warehouses for keeping important items, bank vaults, and important treasure rooms, are worthy of using this expensive "protection" method.
The richest man Monger's hand is different.
Such rare and expensive things were directly used by him as a defensive measure to protect the manor, and they were densely arranged on the walls of the entire manor.
This is just the most basic one.
There are more invisible and hidden defensive measures.
Outside the main entrance of the manor stands a magnificent giant arch, inlaid with glittering fluorite, dispelling the night of a nearby area.
Close to the ground, the brazier burned with a bright light blue flame.
This flame also originated from the deep region, named "Deep Cold Bone Fire", and has many unique characteristics, such as its flame temperature is completely opposite to normal flames. It does not generate heat when burning. On the contrary, it will constantly absorb the surrounding heat, and it will only burn on the bones of dead bodies.
Loyal and strict guards hold sharp spears on both sides to prevent any malicious intruders.
This party was organized by Monger. Although the main characters were Pete, Miranda and Lancelot, the invitations sent by Monger covered most of the capital.
Nobles, celebrities, merchants with a name in the capital, leaders of mercenary groups, and famous adventurers, many people received Monger's invitation and dressed up carefully to attend.
Expensive gems and emblems can be seen everywhere on the dresses.
In comparison, Pete and his friends became "a little green in the colorful flowers".
To put it bluntly, the guards of Monger Manor looked more solemn than them.
Pete and his friends looked like country bumpkins from the border, and they seemed out of tune with the surrounding environment.
When they arrived at the main entrance of the manor, the three were stopped by the guards.
"I'm really sorry, three of you. Mr. Munger will entertain important guests in the near future. If you are here to seek relief, you can go to the L.G Navigation Center in the port area. There will be some free food for you, and some physical work. The pay is not much, but it is enough for you to survive in the capital."
Pet didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and took out the invitation from his arms.
"You misunderstood, we are not here to seek help, I... forget it, just look at the invitation."
They used to wear this outfit when they were looking for monsters in the dark forest. Although the workmanship is simple and it doesn't look very good, it is strong and durable.
The forest is full of vines, shrubs and tall grass, and the terrain is narrow and complex. Not to mention the dress, sometimes even the armor used by the warriors to protect themselves is difficult to wear, because it will seriously hinder their efficiency.
What's more, the mortality rate of fighting monsters is very high. Most of the time, death is caused by being disemboweled or even beaten all over. When people die, their clothes are basically torn apart. It is better to use them as consumables.
Most of the adventurers in Ceylon who make a living by exploring and collecting materials outside the Dark Forest basically wear this kind of clothes, which can almost be called "work clothes".
As a result, when they arrived in the capital, they were actually mistaken for refugees begging by the guards of Monger Manor!
Although they were widely publicized in the news, the description above was only textual content, especially the whole news focused on Miranda.
Pete and Lancelot, two "border origins", were directly glossed over.
It is reasonable that the guards could not recognize their faces.
When using the invitation to prove his identity, the guards were completely confused.
His eyes were wandering back and forth between the invitation and Pete, Miranda and Lancelot.
"How can the heroes of the kingdom be so low-key?!"
"Could it be that they are pretending?"
This is basically the thought that echoed in his mind.
If the invitation had not included a deposit note of 1,000 gold, he might have really suspected that these three guys had heard that Rune Monger was going to hold a banquet and came here to eat and drink for free.
But the deposit note of the L.G Chamber of Commerce could not be faked.
Their identities were confirmed without a doubt.
The guards bowed neatly and greeted the three people:
"Three heroes, welcome to Lord Monger's Royal Capital Manor!"
...
"Wow!"
Walking into the manor, Lancelot raised his head and exclaimed in shock.
A huge goblin airship was floating in the air, the propeller at the tail slowly turned, and the huge airbag filled with air cast a large shadow on the ground.
Pete also sighed.
"Privately customized super deluxe goblin airship."
That was the private airship that Rune Monger had bought in full and repaired, renovated and decorated. This airship had no fixed route to speak of, and the captain and engineer on it only served Monger.
The price of this thing is not a question of whether it is expensive or not, but that ordinary people have no need to buy it at all. After all, it is not enough to just buy an airship. Regardless of whether it will take off and sail, it must be regularly maintained and maintained, and the accumulated expenses for this are also a huge amount.
This is just a corner of the luxurious scene in Monger Manor.
In addition to the main building of the manor, the huge manor covering an area of thousands of square meters, it is no exaggeration to say that as long as it is a form of entertainment that can be found in the Prentis continent, it can be found here!
Along the way.
If Pete is not mistaken, he even saw a temporary snack night market in the manor!
Hundreds of vendors who make different kinds of food and snacks were specially hired to provide free snacks to the invited guests at any time.
As long as you are qualified to enter this manor, everything you can see, whether it is food, drink or play, is free!
…
There will be 5+1 more tonight. I will have a few bites of food with my friends in the evening, and continue to write after finishing.
