Duke of Grief

In the autumn morning when the temperature was low, the cold misty water stranded on the river channel surrounded the merchant ship. The rest of the sailor and the chamber of commerce members opened their still sleepy eyes and yawned onto the deck.

After the pick-up was over, the sun had just climbed up the hill, and the light of daybreak penetrated through the dense fog and fell on the people, making them unable to bear a trembling, and then let out a comfortable breath.

"Anchor!"

The first officer's loud voice passed through several layers of wooden boards and reached the ear of the merchant ship's owner. While he was still sleeping, he opened his misty eyes.

The merchant ship rocked again, the hammock swung with the hull, and the owner of the merchant ship was completely awakened at this time.

"Oh!"

The owner of the merchant ship yelled and was thrown onto the damp wooden board. Then he climbed up again with a sullen expression, but did not complain.

This was what he asked the first officer to do last night. He must rush to the Principality of the Winds of Sorrow within this day and follow the river to go up to the walled city.

Although he is still in the ‘territory’ of the Kurt Kingdom, this big river separates the border of the Kurt Kingdom from the Black Forest. Even the people of the Kurt Kingdom will not think that the river is within their territory.

Starting from the territory of the Kurt Kingdom, you can follow the river to enter this big river known as the'Agate River', and then go upstream to the Principality of Winds.

However, most people don’t choose to do this, even if it saves a lot of time, but the other side of the river bank is the Black Forest. No one knows what ghosts are hiding there, so I would rather go by land, pass some territory, and don’t want to come. Go this way.

Only the real miser, or the businessman who is really in a hurry, will take this route.

The owner of the merchant ship is not the former. He heard the news that the Kurkut Empire purchased the ‘pharmaceutical machine’ from the Principality of Sorrowful Wind before he hurried on the road!

He knew before that the Principality of Sad Wind had invented a machine capable of making magic potions, and knew that the wizards were very resistant to this machine.

Just after the Master College was established, and after the news came out, he guessed that the Masters must have a great reaction, and now it is even worse.

But these have nothing to do with him, because he is not a mage, he is just a "common" businessman, and he is also a member of the business alliance. Naturally, the machine made by the Principality of Sorrowful Wind is naturally not There will be any conflict.

Now what he thinks is that since the Kurkut Empire can buy that kind of machine, does it mean that this kind of machine is actually sold to the outside world?

If it wasn’t for night sailing, it would be very dangerous. I’m afraid he would not let the sailors take a rest last night.

He couldn’t help it because this news had been passed to him for a few days, and when the news came out, there must have been many businessmen stranded in Wind City.

He was afraid that if he couldn't catch up, he might not even be able to buy anything!

Goods produced by the Principality of Sad Winds are generally in short supply, and this is especially true of machines that can produce magic potions. Even though many people will cast their gadgets on this, there are also many merchants who are not afraid of the threats of those mages.

Although the price of magic potions will definitely fall in the future, it is still precious!

Even if the price drops by 20% to 30%, what about the quantity? As long as the quantity is sufficient to fill the gap in unit prices, then they can still make huge profits.

No matter when, magic potions have always been sought-after, because the number of mages is scarce, they can not always make magic potions, the price of magic potions is naturally high.

But after that, when that kind of machine appeared in various parts of the mainland, who would buy the magic potions made by mages?

Merchants such as merchant ship owners who have sold magic materials know that magic potions are actually not too expensive, but magic potions are so expensive because the masters are controlling the amount of outflows.

Generally speaking, only magicians of orthodox origin can make qualified magic potions. The magic potions made by wild mages can only be used by those willing to gamble, so the price of qualified magic potions will always be so expensive!

The owner of the merchant ship has been fed up with this kind of day, and watched as the money was lost from his own hands, but he could do nothing.

It is said that the machine can make perfect use of materials. Unlike a mage, there is a certain chance of loss when making magic potions.

Although that kind of machine may also make mistakes, the chance is very small, which is much stronger than that of the masters!

What lags behind the times should be discarded. If it is still useful in this era, it means that it is not behind.

But now the facts have proved that the mage's pharmaceutical technology is behind the times. Although they are not willing to be deprived of their own interests, the reality is cruel. Unless a war is initiated and the principality is defeated, they will not stop. of.

"President, there is a situation!"

The owner of the merchant ship was sitting in the cabin and eating breakfast, but a member of the chamber of commerce ran down breathlessly and said to him, "The fish, the big fish, the tiger-shaped fish!"

"what?"

The owner of the merchant ship had just torn off a piece of bread, but he heard the messy description of his subordinates and looked up in a daze.

The members of the chamber of commerce anxiously gestured, "There are many fish on our side of the boat! They have tiger stripes on them, and they are particularly large!"

After chewing a few bites of bread in his mouth, the owner of the merchant ship frowned slightly, feeling a little uneasy, and got up, "Go, let me go and see!"

The owner of the merchant ship stepped onto the deck and called out the first officer: "Raleigh, Raleigh!"

The first officer lying on the side of the boat looked back, "Captain, are you asking me something?"

The owner of the merchant ship helped the trouser belt that slid down because of the fat on the waist and asked, "What is the situation now? Can't you solve it?"

The first officer sighed and pointed to the river, "Come and see for yourself!"

The owner of the merchant ship glanced at his first officer, leaned over to the side of the ship, and looked at the probe. He was startled.

From the side of the boat and the river, you can see all the ‘big tiger-shaped fish’. These fish are covered with the river, making it look like a river made of fish.

These tiger-shaped big fish floated on the water, so that he could hardly see the river, which scared him so much that he took a breath of breath subconsciously.

"Hey, what's the matter?" The owner of the merchant ship turned to look at the first officer, his face full of fright. "They, do they eat people?"

At this time, his heart was full of regrets, if he knew this kind of thing, he should take the land instead of the water!

"I don't know!" The first officer shook his head in despair.

He has been running on this waterway for several years. The reason why the merchant ship owner hired him was because he dared to run a business on this waterway.

But in the past few years ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ he has not seen this situation, even heard it!

If this has happened long ago, then there should be some rumors, but in fact, not.

In other words, this is the first time this happened, and they are the group of unlucky guys who encountered this for the first time.

It's near the Black Forest...

The sweaty merchant shipowner looked at the other bank, which was covered with trees hundreds of feet away.

He knew that the people of the Principality of Sad Wind had undergone ‘abnormalities’, because their concentration of magic power increased, and their blood veins awakened, and they looked different from ordinary humans.

And here is on the edge of the Black Forest-even the Duchy of Winds has been affected, not to mention here?

The group of tiger-shaped big fish under their boat and on the river are either monsters or Warcraft...

why? Why did they encounter such a bad luck? !
