People who have never been to the city of Ferut have a hard time imagining how big this city is, but when people understand that when the Northland enters winter, people from all tribes in the Northland will gather in Ferut to spend the winter, they should be able to imagine this city.

Definitely not small.

In order to take care of the customs of each tribe and avoid conflicts between tribes, the Ferut Tribal Council not only formulated rules that did not allow the use of force in the city, but also built separate residential areas for each tribe.

, and high walls were built around the residential areas, nominally to protect each tribe from being harassed by other tribes, but in fact to isolate the communication between the tribes.

Even in recent years, the tribal council has transferred manpower from various families in the city to establish joint patrol teams in winter to assist the city guards in patrolling the streets every day. The closer to the outer city, the more patrol teams there are, because most of the tribes in the outer city have

They are small tribes who like to fight fiercely. A little quarrel can lead to a deadly fight. Therefore, the most number of armed fights occur every winter, causing the most casualties.

Originally, such a joint patrol was to be organized this year, but the civil war that occurred this year has made it impossible for the families in the city to spare enough manpower to form a patrol team. Moreover, even if there are sufficient manpower, no family is willing to send more people.

Join the patrol team. After all, after experiencing a civil war, every family has many enemies. If you rashly leave the area controlled by the family to patrol other areas, you may never return.

It is precisely because of the absence of this joint patrol team to maintain public security that the entire urban area near the periphery has become very chaotic this winter. Except for the hotel where Leo and the others live and its surrounding areas, the other urban areas have simply become a

In this small battlefield, various battles take place almost every day. The two most profitable places here are the tavern and the hospital.

The Longhorn Tribe is not a big tribe. The residential area they are assigned to is located in the second-level city. When entering the second-level city from the outermost city, you also have to pass through a city gate, and the inspection at this city gate is very strict.

Few, but this kind of severity only targets those northern tribesmen living in the outermost urban areas. Foreign travelers like Leo are easily let through.

Like an ordinary Spiral traveler, Leo hired a local guide at the city gate to take him around the city. This was very necessary in Ferut, because in addition to allowing outsiders to avoid being in Ferut

In addition to getting lost in this maze-like city without any urban planning, it is also to avoid unnecessary troubles, because many of the tribes living on the outskirts of the city live by plundering, and they don't mind

Change the target of robbery from poor tribesmen to wealthy foreign tourists.

Leo, who was dressed differently, naturally became the target of this tribe. Although Leo was much taller and looked much stronger than the Northern tribesmen, for the Northern tribes

From a human perspective, southerners are like woolly sheep. They look big and strong, but are actually very weak. As long as they are intimidated a little, they will obediently take out their money.

However, the guide hired by Leo was obviously very reliable. Not only did he take Leo around the city like a treasure trove, introducing the origins of every building and every tribe in the residential area, but he was also able to detect it in time.

Some ill-intentioned northern tribesmen, before the other party did anything irrational, showed off the emblem representing their family, thus resolving an unpleasant experience.

After visiting most of the city, the guide took Leo near the residential area of ​​the Longhorn Tribe. Compared with the residential areas of other tribes, the residential area of ​​the Longhorn Tribe was obviously more tense. This tension was not only

It lies in the other tribesmen spying on the Longhorn Tribe on the periphery of the residential area, and also in the guards walking back and forth on the isolation wall in the Longhorn Tribe's residential area.

Although when the residential areas were first built, the tribal council built walls for isolation and defense around each residential area, those walls only served a symbolic purpose, and no one really thought that such walls could block the outside.

people come in.

But now the Longhorn Tribe used the simple materials at hand to remodel the wall. Several rows of shelves were built on the inside. Tribal guards walked back and forth on the shelves to patrol. In addition, a tent was set up in the corner. Normally,

The guards can stay in the tent to avoid the wind and snow.

Leo knew what was happening here, but he still asked the guide about the situation.

"They're just a bunch of ground rats whose brains were burnt by the bounty!" The guide glanced disdainfully at the tribesmen hiding in the dark. Like most of the tribesmen living in the city, he also had a disdain for these people living in the frozen soil of the north.

He was extremely contemptuous of his fellow tribesmen, and after saying a simple sentence, he said no more, as if mentioning these people any more would make him feel as sick as if he had eaten a bug.

However, compared to people from other tribes around him, when he mentioned the Longhorn Tribe, his attitude was slightly better, saying: "The leader of the Longhorn Tribe is very smart and knows that he cannot eat the bounty alone.

, they have found a big family they can rely on, and soon they will become a vassal family of that big family, and they may also move to the city."

"Can I live in the city as long as I become a vassal of a big tribe?" Leo asked nonchalantly while scanning the surrounding terrain through the spiritual network.

"In the past, as long as you were willing, you could settle down in the city. Now there are other rules. Becoming a vassal of a big family is just a condition." The guide explained briefly, without intending to say too much on this matter, so he explained

It was too chaotic here, and it was not advisable to stay for a long time in case something happened, and then he took Leo and left the residential area of ​​the Longhorn Tribe.

After that, Leo asked the guide to take him to visit other urban areas. This guide seemed to be from a big family. When entering other urban areas, he did not encounter many difficulties from the gatekeepers. After touring the whole city, the day was almost gone.

The reason why Ferut City is the hub between the north and the south is not only that it is the only big city in the North, but also because it is built right at the foot of Ferut Mountain.

Ferut Mountain itself is the easiest mountain to climb among the nearby mountains of the Venovi Mountains. In addition, the French Empire has continuously widened, rested, and maintained the mountain road on this high mountain over the years, making this mountain road more convenient.

, except for the fact that icy roads in winter put people walking on them at risk of slipping off roadside cliffs, mountain roads are much safer at other times.

Anyone who wants to enter the southern French Empire from the North, or enter the North from the French territory, needs to climb this mountain. Of course, there are also some stowaways and smugglers who will bypass the Ferut Mountain with many checkpoints and walk on both sides.

Other high mountains, but most of them ended in tragedy. Either they encountered various accidents on the way over the mountains, or they lost their way during the climb and accidentally entered the black forest and never came out.

It is no exaggeration to say that even the most experienced smugglers cannot guarantee that they will be able to reach the other side of the mountain safely without going through Mount Ferut.

Leo didn't ask the guide too much about Ferut Mountain, not only because the guide didn't know much about Ferut Mountain, but more importantly because he was a tourist from the French Empire.

, there is no need to inquire about this information at all.

What's more, Leo and the others had no intention of entering France from Ferut Mountain in the first place. They would take other roads that were very dangerous for ordinary people and bypass the various checkpoints set up by the French Empire at both ends of Ferut Mountain.

When Leo returned to the hotel, it was already nightfall. At this time, Sylvia and the others were staying leisurely in the hotel room, warming themselves by the fire and doing their own things. After seeing Leo come back, they were a little absent-minded all day.

Mist and Randall then asked Leo how he was doing in finding out about the Horned Tribe.

Leo didn't say too much, and went straight to the topic: "No problem, we can take action tonight. You guys clean up, and you can do it yourself tonight. We are only responsible for getting rid of those people who are in the way, so that the people of the Horned Tribe can't

Resist."

"What? Let's do it ourselves?" Mist and Randall were both stunned and did not react for a while.

Leo replied calmly: "Of course you take revenge on your own. Do you need us to help you with things like revenge? We have no grudge against the Horned Tribe. We only help you because of your relationship with Sylvia."

"This..." The scholar couple couldn't help but hesitate at this moment.

From the beginning, they thought that when they wanted to take revenge on the Long-Horned Tribe, they would just stand aside. They didn’t even have to stand aside. Leo and the others would get rid of those people from the Long-Horned Tribe, but now they are starting from Lei.

Ou knew from his mouth that they were the ones who finally took action, which made them feel a little unable to adapt.

It's not that they haven't killed anyone. In fact, on their way to the North, they not only killed people, but also killed the monsters in the swamp that tried to eat them. But the people and monsters they killed were all in their own hands.

When faced with a life or death decision, if you don't kill the other person, you will die yourself.

But now they heard from Leo's mouth that the person they were going to kill tonight would not put up any resistance. They just had to insert the sharp weapon into the opponent's vitals. This made them feel at a loss and felt like a butcher.

Mist and Randall both had their thoughts written on their faces. After reading it, Sylvia sighed and said, "You guys should go back to your room to prepare! By the way, also think clearly, do you want revenge?"

After listening to Sylvia's suggestion, the two of them walked out of the room silently without saying anything.

"Humph! They are really two weak guys. Are you sure you want to take them with you?" Tessa Moka said with disdain after the two left.

Tessa Mocha, who grew up on the edge of the wilderness of the Moissan continent, knows very well what it means to repay injustice and revenge. In her opinion, there is no need to hesitate at all such grievances as those between Mister and Randall, let alone

Leo and the others helped. Even without the help of Leo and the others, they still have to

Trying to get rid of the horned tribe, so Mist and Randall's performance was too weak in her opinion, and they were not suitable people to become companions, especially for the things they had to do after going to the French Empire, bringing these

The two of them will only cause a lot of trouble for themselves.

Sylvia ignored Tessa Moka's complaints, but looked at Leo and explained: "After arriving in Donglin City, I will arrange for someone to send them to the United Kingdom, and they will not cause us any trouble.

"

Leo looked at Sylvia with some confusion and asked: "Since you don't want them to take revenge, why don't you directly persuade them instead of taking such a big detour?"

Sylvia sighed and said: "My direct persuasion will only make them misunderstand, and they will not listen to other people's persuasion because of the situation at that time. They can only think clearly about this kind of thing." As she said,

He looked at Leo and asked, "Do you think I shouldn't dissuade them from taking revenge?"

"Whether they are seeking revenge or not, it doesn't make any sense to me." Leo responded coldly, looked at Sylvia, and said, "I'm just curious as to why you sympathize with the people of the Horned Tribe?"

"I don't sympathize with them, I just think..." Sylvia hesitated and said, "I think what they did might be a good thing."

Hearing Sylvia's answer, Leo and Tessa Moka couldn't help but froze, and then stared at each other, waiting for the other party to give further explanation.

"Even without the wanted order from the French Empire and the reward from the Hannossa League, those who decided to flee to the North would never have survived. All the tribes in the North will not let others occupy this land."

Sylvia explained with a serious look: "You may not know that more than a hundred years ago, the Hannossa League sent a team to prepare to occupy a relatively fertile land near the Black Forest Swamp.

Planting food. As a result, various tribes in the north united together to form a large army and killed all those in the Hannossa League. More than 20,000 heads were built into human head towers. It was not until more than 50 years ago that the Han Dynasty was allowed to

The Nossa Alliance stopped those heads, and the Hannossa Alliance did not dare to set foot in the North because of this incident. This is why the Hannossa Alliance will no longer pursue and kill the mutants after they pass through the Black Forest Swamp.

.”

"There is such a thing." Tessa Moka said with some surprise.

But Leo was not too surprised, because he had seen some relevant records in Rembrandt's old man, and knew a little bit about the matter, but he didn't know as much as Sylvia did.

"Do you think that if those mutants successfully settle down in the Northland this winter, more people will flee to the Northland," Tessa Mocha guessed: "And if those people are killed by the Northlanders, then the Han people will

The mutants in the Nossa Alliance will know that the North is not safe and will flee to the south." As she said this, she wondered: "But what does this have to do with the revenge of those two people? Even if they took revenge, the mutants would
