Living In Another World With A Farm

Chapter 57: Montenegro fortress (1)

Translator: 549690339

At the northern exit of The Forgotten Valley, a fortress stood silently. This fortress was completely made of black stone, and the walls were shockingly 40 metres tall. They were so long that they blocked off the entire forgotten Valley.

The entire fortress was like an iron wall, blocking The Forgotten Valley. If they wanted to pass through The Forgotten Valley, they had to go through the Montenegro fortress.

However, when you approached the Montenegro fortress, you would realize that it was not as powerful as you thought. In fact, it looked more like an old man. The top of the fortress’s wall was damaged in many places. The entire fortress looked like it had not been repaired for a long time.

In fact, the Versailles family had built this fortress to prevent the magical beasts in the rotten swamp from entering the Versailles Duchy through The Forgotten Valley. However, the fortress had been built for hundreds of years, and the magical beasts had only been active in the blackdirt wastelands. They had never come to The Forgotten Valley, so the fortress had slowly been forgotten. Although there were still some troops stationed here, it was mostly for the sake of security.

Although there were no troops stationed here, no one dared to underestimate the combat power of the Black Mountain fortress, because there were many adventurers and mercenaries here. These people were also a force that could not be underestimated.

But at the same time, the existence of these people also made the security of the Montenegro fortress very chaotic. The city defense officer was also very difficult to be, because whether it was adventurers or mercenaries, they were all rebellious guys. If something went wrong, they would draw their knives and kill people. In the face of such a group of barbarians, the city defense Army, which was not an elite to begin with, seemed even more powerless.

Because of this, the Montenegro fortress became the city defense Army, a place jointly managed by a few large mercenary groups and merchants. These large mercenary groups and merchants had their own territories, and they didn’t invade each other’s territory.

Of course, under such circumstances, the Duchy of Versailles could forget about collecting any taxes here. If they could not collect the taxes, the Duchy would not give them money to repair the walls. Thus, the Montenegro fortress slowly became a paradise for mercenaries, adventurers, and even fugitives.

This also reflected the situation in the blackdirt Plains. The blackdirt Plains was a land of death. Therefore, to the Duchy of Versailles, Montenegro fortress was the safest border town. There were no enemies around and it was close to the mountains. Such a place was often a mix of good and bad. If the blackdirt Plains was a prosperous place, then Montenegro fortress would be an important border town. This was because there would be trade between them. The Duchy of Versailles would be able to collect a large amount of taxes, so naturally, they would pay attention to this place. They would not choose to forget about it like now.

Under such circumstances, the defense of the Montenegro fortress could be imagined. To Grimm, it was an undefended city.

Of course, he would not enter the Montenegro fortress through the main entrance, as he might be recognized. Grimm had climbed over the city wall to sneak into the black Mountain fortress.

The commercial development in Montenegro fortress was very abnormal. There were weapon shops, medicine shops, equipment shops everywhere. Taverns, inns, restaurants were everywhere. However, it was difficult to find places to buy daily necessities here. In the entire fortress, other than the city defense Army, there were only some adventurers and mercenaries. There were very few ordinary people.

Of course, this was not what Grimm was concerned about. He found a relatively remote equipment store and bought five black magic robes, the kind that wore a hat, a very long wooden magic staff, and a set of armor for himself. It was a very beautiful set of armor, but it was not very good for appearance. The most important thing about this set of armor was that he had a helmet that could block Grimm’s entire face.

The magic robe was for Zhao Hai. With this magic robe and magic staff, Zhao Hai could pretend to be a black magician. After all, other than a black magician, no other magician would like to wear this kind of weird magic robe that almost wrapped their entire body. The magic robes on the mainland had been improved for several generations. Not only were they comfortable to wear, but they were also very beautiful, especially for some female magicians. They wore very gorgeous magic robes. It was almost as good as the gown.

Compared to other mages, The Black Mages preferred the mages that Grimm had bought. The mages ‘robes were thick and the hat was big enough to cover their entire face. Gradually, the mages’ robes had become the symbol of The Black Mages.

The only use of the armor was to cover his face. He wanted to disguise himself as a follower of a mage. On the continent, mages were a group of people with high status, and they were not short of money under normal circumstances. So, although mages were not afraid of close combat, they would still bring some followers. These followers could help the mages in battle. He might be working for mages.

So on the mainland, if you saw a mage with a group of Warriors dressed like iron cans, you didn’t have to be surprised at all. Those Warriors were the followers of the mage.

This time, Grimm was going to disguise himself as a warrior that followed the magician. This was the only way he could follow Zhao Hai without being suspected.

After buying these things, Grimm also bought some things for mercenaries, including a mercenary backpack.

A mercenary’s backpack was the standard equipment for every mercenary and adventurer. Because these mercenaries and adventurers spent most of their time in the wild, they would prepare some corresponding things for themselves according to different missions. In addition, they would also need some food, use, or loot. All of these needed a place to store, so this mercenary backpack came into being.

The main reason why Grimm bought this item was to prevent others from discovering the secret of Zhao Hai’s space. This time, their destination was not Montenegro fortress. Black Mountain fortress was just a place they were passing by. No one would care about them here because no one would care about anything else other than themselves. Moreover, the Versailles family did not have much power here, so Grimm was not worried.

However, if they were to go to other places, things would not be so smooth. The Versailles family had a good control of their own territory. Of course, the Montenegro fortress was an exception.

Green wanted to buy more things, but he really didn’t have any money now. Although he would have money if he sold the radishes, they hadn’t sold their radishes yet. So he could only buy some necessities and leave the Montenegro fortress.

However, Grimm was not wearing his shiny silver armor. Instead, he was wearing an ordinary adventurer’s cotton shirt, which made him look inconspicuous. There were hundreds and thousands of adventurers going in and out of the Montenegro fortress every day, so no one would pay attention to him.

Although Grimm had left the Montenegro fortress, he still carefully observed his surroundings before slowly walking into the mountains. To be honest, he was now a little nervous.

Grimm walked around the mountain a few times. After making sure that he was not being followed, he came to the place where he had made the mark. Before he could do anything, the space hole appeared. Grimm entered the space in a flash, and the space hole disappeared. Everything returned to peace.

Zhao Hai had been observing the situation outside from his Origin space. Therefore, he noticed green the moment he appeared. He could see everything within a hundred meters.

Seeing the huge backpack in Gelin’s hands, Zhao Hai could not help but be stunned. The appearance of this backpack was too similar to the mountaineering bags from his previous life on Earth. Other than the different materials, the less exquisite workmanship, and the lack of a zipper, the other parts of the backpack were really similar to those mountaineering bags.

Zhao Hai pointed at the big bag and said, ” “Grandpa Green, what are you buying this for? We don’t need it at all.”

Grimm smiled. &Quot; of course we don’t need this. But with this, we can conceal the existence of space. After all, on the mainland, space preparation is very rare. &Quot;

Zhao Hai immediately understood Green’s meaning. He nodded and said,”Right, I almost forgot about that.” Gerlyn smiled and handed the magic staff to Zhao Hai, ” “This mage is just for show. Although the one I chose wasn’t the worst, it was the lightest one. This way, young master won’t have to exert much effort to lift it. There’s a magic robe in this bag. Young master, please change into it.”

Zhao Hai nodded and took the magic staff and the backpack. He did not know what kind of wood the magic staff was made of, but it was very light. Zhao Hai felt like he was holding a bamboo pole instead of a piece of wood.

However, Zhao Hai did not study the magic staff. Instead, he took his backpack and entered the straw hut. The clothes that Zhao Hai wore in the beginning were the noble clothes that Grimm and the others had prepared for him. The noble clothes here were very gorgeous, but they were also very inconvenient. Although the lower body was not the tights that Zhao Hai had seen on earth, the pants were also very inconvenient. In the end, Zhao Hai decided not to wear the noble clothes anymore. Now, he had a lot of things to do every day. Wearing that kind of clothes would only affect his movements.

Merlin also knew this, so she did not object. When green came back and saw that Zhao Hai was not wearing the Noble’s clothes, he originally wanted to object. However, when he saw that Zhao Hai had so many things to do and it was inconvenient to wear that kind of clothes, he let it go. He was not an inflexible person.

Zhao Hai was currently wearing a set of Green’s warrior suit. However, Merlin had made it a little smaller so that Zhao Hai was not as tall as green. Fortunately, green was not very strong, so there was no need to make too many changes. This kind of warrior suit was naturally made very loose for the convenience of Warriors in battle. It was very convenient for movement, and Zhao Hai liked it very much.
