Chapter 400 Arriving at Yancheng
After hearing Gu Ranran's explanation, Xu Shisan also understood that this was what happened.
"By the way, I forgot to ask you, what level of summoner are you?" Gu Ranran looked at Xu Shisan again and asked.
In her opinion, Xu Shisan's summoned beast could make the heavily armored rhinoceros disappear instantly, and its ability must be very powerful.
Combined with Xu Shisan's age, Gu Ranran guessed that he should be an S-level summoner, or an A-level summoner like himself.
Regarding this question, Xu Shisan did not answer first, but asked: "Then what level of summoner are you?"
"I am an A-level summoner. I was promoted to the A-level summoner more than a year ago." Gu Ranran replied.
"Like you, I am also an A-level summoner." Xu Shisan replied.
Hearing this, Gu Ranran was not surprised, because she and Xu Shisan should be about the same age.
Xu Shisan is an A-level summoner at this age. His talent is among the human race, and he is considered to be very good like her.
"By the way, how old are you this year?" Gu Ziheng on the side couldn't help but ask.
"Me? I'm twenty-one." Xu Shisan said truthfully.
Xu Shisan is indeed only 21 years old this year.
Hearing that Xu Shisan was only twenty-one years old, Gu Ziheng opened his mouth in surprise: "Ah? You are only twenty-one years old? How come you are one year younger than my sister?"
"What? Don't I want to be twenty-one? How old do you think I want to be?" Xu Shisan looked at Gu Ziheng funny.
"I think you must be around twenty-four, five, twenty-seven or eight." Gu Ziheng looked at Xu Shisan and said seriously.
"Ziheng, don't talk nonsense." Gu Ranran slapped Gu Ziheng on the back of the head.
Then he apologized to Xu Shisan: "I'm sorry, my brother can't speak, don't mind."
"It's okay." Xu Shisan smiled nonchalantly.
He had been in the forest for several months. He was dirty and sloppy. He really didn't look like a young man in his early twenties.
Later, Xu Shisan asked Gu Ranran many questions while walking. Along the way, he also roughly understood the basic situation of the entire beast realm.
Soon the sky darkened. Xu Shisan followed Gu Ranran for more than two hundred kilometers, but still did not leave the forest.
In response, Xu Shisan couldn't help but ask: "When can we return to Yancheng?"
"It's still early. I'll probably have to walk all day tomorrow, and it won't be until the evening the day after tomorrow." Gu Ziheng replied.
Gu Ranran followed his words and continued to explain to Xu Shisan: "Because our Yancheng has to pay tribute to a large number of ferocious beasts to the Divine Beast Domain every month, the city lord's palace in Yancheng, our three major families, and various small families, There are targets every month. For example, our Gu family must turn in fifteen S-level beasts, one hundred A-level beasts, and one thousand B-level beasts.”
"Outside of Yan City, in the forest within a radius of several hundred kilometers, all the ferocious beasts inside have been basically slaughtered by various families. Now when we hunt ferocious beasts, we always go to areas more than a thousand kilometers away. This is the area where we encountered ferocious beasts at noon today. A large number of ferocious beasts can be hunted there, but the risk factor is also very high, and casualties are common.”
"Unexpectedly, this time we were suddenly attacked by several S-class ferocious beasts. Our elders died trying to protect us. I don't know how to explain it to my family." Gu Ranran sighed, looking a little sad and lonely. .
"We will start early tomorrow morning. We can cover about four to five hundred kilometers in a whole day. We will walk another four hundred kilometers the day after tomorrow. We will reach Yancheng in the evening."
Xu Shisan couldn't help but clicked his tongue in his heart when he heard that the Gu family where Gu Ranran lived hunted at least fifteen S-class ferocious beasts every month.
Fifteen a month, one hundred and eighty S-level ferocious beasts will be handed over in a year. And this is just the Gu family. According to the care of Ran Ran, there are so many families in Yancheng, wouldn't they have to hand over hundreds of S-level beasts in a month? Eighty S-class ferocious beasts.
How much will you get this year?
How many cities are there in total? What's more, there are more A-level beasts and B-level beasts.
This is like a company's employees who have performance every month. If they don't perform well, their wages and bonuses will be deducted. They completely treat employees like cattle.
And these families in the human domain are not even as good as cattle and horses.
At least you get a salary when you go to work in the company, but Gu Ranran and his family don't even get any remuneration.
"Okay, it's too dark to rush. Let's take a rest for the night."
Afterwards, Xu Shisan, Gu Ranran and Gu Ziheng, the siblings, found a place to rest.
The next day, as soon as it got dark, Xu Shisan and Gu Ranran continued to set off.
The three of them were on the road all day long, and Xu Shisan also took the opportunity to ask a lot of questions about the beast realm on the way.
After a day of traveling, the three of them walked a full 500 kilometers without stopping.
According to Gu Ranran, there are not many ferocious beasts in this forest with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, so Xu Shisan really wants to summon the mosquito girl to rush on, but Xu Shisan doesn’t want to show his summoned beast in front of Gu Ranran. , so I gave it up.
After dark, the three of them stopped and rested for another night.
Early the next morning, the three of them continued on their way.
After walking for another whole day, when the sky gradually darkened, Xu Shisan followed Gu Ranran out of the forest, and then walked to a road.
Yes, there is a road here. It is very wide, smooth and hard, as if it has been stepped on by countless people over many years.
Gradually, Xu Thirteen and three others walked on the road and met many people.
Along the way, I met surprisingly many people, and they were all high-level summoners.
After walking for dozens of kilometers along the avenue, Xu Shisan saw a wall in the distance.
The wall is very high, about seventy or eighty meters, and looks like a long black line from a distance.
When Xu Shisan really got closer, he discovered that these walls were all made of dark stone. They were not as high as the alliance's 100-meter steel walls, but standing underneath them was still shocking.
At the end of the avenue was a gate. It was already dark now, but there were many people coming in and out.
Of course, most of them come in and very few go out.
These are summoners who go out to hunt ferocious beasts.
Seeing that the gate of Yancheng was even more lively than the gate of Xiong Country, Xu Shisan smacked his tongue in his heart.
"Let's go into the city."
Later, Gu Ranran took Xu Shisan into the Yancheng in the beast domain.
After entering Yancheng, the scene in the city shocked Xu Shisan again.
I saw that in the city, the road was very wide, with various shops on both sides of the road. Lanterns were hung above the shops, illuminating the dark streets brightly.
There are also many pedestrians on the road, making it a very bustling and lively scene.
