Arcane Universe

2nd day early in the morning, before the sun came out, the caravan had already set off on the morning breeze.

Lyle prepared a horse for Simon and Feng Chou each.

The motorcade came out of the west gate of the small town of Fogesack, crossed a field, and entered the forest under the shining of the morning sun.

The forest here is a typical temperate broad-leaved forest. The woods are densely shaded and the roadsides are covered with thick leaves.

This path in front of me is much better than the road Feng Chou took yesterday. Not only is the road wide and arched, there are drainage ditches on the side of the road, and the road is covered with a layer of flagstone, which is not unsightly. Out, the construction of this road should have the participation of magic.

Feng Chou rides on a horse comfortably, his body swaying gently with the horse’s walking, as if his body has become a part of the horse’s body.

Feng Chou doesn’t actually know how to ride a horse, but his body has been patrolled by Knight since he was a child. The riding skills are quite brilliant, and he has even formed his body’s instinct. When he comes into contact with horses, he doesn’t have to think about it. , This body instinctively knows what to do.

Feng Chou sat comfortably on the horse, pressing the reins under his hips, controlling the horse with his legs only, and playing with a heavy gold coin in his hand.

Last night, Simon helped him sell Drow leather armor.

The Drow leather armor comes from a high-end Drow warrior, which is a +4 magic armor.

While purchasing weapon armor, Simon discovered that the best magic weapon armor in the small town of Fogsack is only +3.

The price difference between +3 and +4 magic item is more than doubled.

In the end, Simon only sold the body armor, leg armor, boots and helmet in the armor, leaving behind gloves and a pair of machetes.

He used the proceeds from the sale to purchase a set of +3 medium armor, +3 shield and one-handed sword for Feng Chou, as well as the most expensive clothes Fergesack could buy.

Even so, Simon gave Feng Chou a purse to compensate for the difference.

In addition to about seventy-eighty gold coins, there are also a lot of change in various denominations. This is the pocket money that Simon exchanged for Feng Chou.

Feng Chou looked at the exquisite gold coin in his hand, and couldn’t help but sigh that the world’s coinage craftsmanship is no worse than Earth.

This is a gold coin with a face value of ten krona. It weighs a little more than ten grams, which is slightly larger than a Renminbi five-cent copper coin.

This kind of gold coin with a real value of 95%, presents a beautiful gold red. It is said that it is mixed with rare metals such as austenite. The incorporation of these metals makes the texture of this gold coin change. It’s very tenacious and very wearable.

The circumference of the gold coin has a zigzag pattern, which is to prevent someone from stealing the gold on the gold coin by filing.

The front of the gold coin is embossed with a sitting lion. The lion is the symbol of Owendell’s Imperial Family. The lion is surrounded by a circle of thorns, and the thorns is surrounded by a circle of letters, the upper half of the circle The letters mean “Owendale Imperial Family Bank”, and the letters in the lower half circle are the face value of this gold coin “ten crowns”.

The reverse side of the gold coin embossed a profile portrait of a man, the head all around is also surrounded by a circle of letters, meaning: “Owendale Emperor Olaf IV”, this is the Owendale Empire The current emperor.

The relief is very clear, the lines are meticulously performed, and the work is not worse than the coins made by modern industries on Earth.

As far as Leo knows, this kind of gold coin is produced by an alchemy device driven by magic. The alchemist who invented this device was generously rewarded by the commercial Goddess.

In addition to this ten-krona gold coin, the Imperial Family Bank also issued a 20-krona gold coin weighing a little more than 20 grams and also containing 95% gold.

Because of the lion relief on the gold coins, people like to refer to the ten krona gold coin as the small Golden Lion, and the 20 gram gold coin as the big Golden Lion.

In addition to the one-kroner face value, the Silver Coin has a face value of fifty peas, which weighs more than ten grams, which is slightly larger than the one-yuan Silver Coin of Renminbi.

Papers is the face value unit of copper coins, and the exchange ratio with krona is one krona to 100 leather.

There are four denominations of copper coins, which are 1 leather, 2 leather, 5 leather, and 10 leather.

The Copper Coin of 1 leather is slightly larger than the Renminbi five-pointed coin. It weighs 5 grams and is made of brass. People call this copper coin with the smallest denomination as copper.

2 The weight of the leather is 10 grams, which is slightly larger than the Renminbi one-yuan coin. People use the copper plate to refer to this Copper Coin.

15 grams of 5 leather, this Copper Coin contains about 4% silver.

The Copper Coin of 10 leathers weighs 15 grams and contains about 10% silver.

……

Long journey is always boring, especially when your transportation is still a horse.

Being bored, Feng Chou scanned all the members of this caravan through the Universe Pagoda.

This caravan has a total of seven carriages, a leader, two guards, seven guys, seven coachmen, and eighteen guard mercenaries.

This group of people are all professionals, without exception, even the coachman and the guy are professionals with two Level 3 fighter levels.

To Feng Chou’s surprise, among the caravans, the leader of the caravan with the highest professional level turned out to be the leader of the caravan. This middle age person is a Level 4 Rogue and one of his two guards is a part-time level 4 Rogue. Fifth Level fighter, a sixth-level fighter, these two guards also have part-time roles as Rogue.

The dozen or so mercenaries seem to belong to the same mercenary group.

The mercenary groups that can accept escort missions are all teams with high credibility in the mercenary union.

The mercenary union divides the credit of mercenaries into ten levels, each with different privileges.

For example, mercenaries with a credit rating of Level 3 or higher can purchase potions and alchemy items at different discounted prices in the mercenary union’s internal stores.

It is said that as long as the mercenary level reaches Fifth Level, they can receive a monthly pension from the mercenary association after they are old or disabled. The higher the credit level, the more pension, and the Fifth Level is also the threshold for the mercenary group to receive escort and guard tasks.

The credit level of the mercenary group depends on the average credit rating of the main members of the mercenary group. The credit level not only determines the types of tasks that the mercenary group can receive, but also determines the number of mercenary groups The upper limit, the lower the credit level, the lower the upper limit of the number of mercenary groups allowed.

This mercenary group one third and above are professionals above Fifth Level. The leader is a 7th-level fighter and part-time Level 3 Rogue. His two deputies, one is a sixth-level Rogue, and the other It is a sixth-level fighter, and there are two Fifth Level fighters underneath, and one Fifth Level Rogue. The remaining mercenaries below Fifth Level are mostly Level 4 fighters or Rogue.

Those fighters and Rogues with higher ranks have more or less part-time professional levels.

The few Level 3 fighters in the mercenary group all look very young, with heavy crossbows or muskets.

Yes, muskets, this World has gunpowder weapons.

In fact, almost everyone in this convoy carries more than one musket.

Their muskets are very similar to the flintlocks on Earth, but strangely, no flint can be seen. From Leo’s memory, this is probably a musket inspired by magical power.

Leo is not familiar with this weapon. In his impression, this weapon has formidable power similar to a crossbow, and it is slow to fill. Only fools and cowards can use it. His father gave it to the territory. Some of the militias are equipped with the simplest muskets.

Judging from the familiarity of the mercenaries and caravan members, this mercenary and this caravan should have a long-term cooperative relationship.
