Chapter 208 Shadow City
Chapter 208 Shadow City
After receiving the mission, Mo Fan and Xiyue told Chenxi and the others about it after dinner. The next morning, they set out.
When the two appeared again, they were already in Shadow City, a city on the edge of the Mist Shadow Kingdom. Obviously, Shadow City was built because of Shadow Canyon, and its name was also derived from the name of the canyon.
But apart from that, to the north of Shadow City is the Shadow Path which leads to the entrance of Shadow Canyon.
But if you choose to go out from the western gate, take another road, turn a big corner, bypass Shadow Canyon, and continue driving north. Then you can cross Shadow Canyon, cross the United Nations border, and go to the lawless zone.
Shadow Canyon is a natural barrier, a canyon in itself, nothing unusual. Since when, the canyon has fallen into darkness, and unknown monsters have been born in the canyon one after another, making it a dangerous place.
Half of the border between the United Nations and the No Man's Land is this Shadow Canyon, which shows how long the canyon is.
Shadow City, as the closest place to Shadow Canyon in the United Nations, is also one of the cities closest to the Lawless Land in the United Nations, so the population here is naturally large.
Most of them are adventurers, and there are also quite a few goblins that you don’t usually see, or should I say, dwarves?
"Boy! You still can't tell the difference between a goblin and a dwarf at your age!? What did your school teach you!?"
On the street, a dwarf yelled at Mo Fan. Mo Fan was embarrassed and apologized repeatedly before leaving. In fact, Mo Fan did not ask anyone else, but saw it on the street, so he chatted with Xiyue and said that he had never seen a goblin before.
Then... the dwarf angrily scolded him. Obviously, this was not the first time the dwarf was misidentified.
Mo Fan felt wronged, too. After all, on the map of the demon clan, the area to the right of the United Nations and to the lower right of the no-man's land was indeed marked as goblins.
Xiyue couldn't stop laughing. After learning that the demon clan's map was wrong, Xiyue began to explain.
"Goblins are actually goblins. That area was indeed a goblin area a long time ago.
As for the dwarves, they had a hard time surviving in the United Nations. After all, they were born with a height disadvantage, and it was difficult for them to have magical talent. Their only advantage was their excellent strength, which made them only a meat shield, so they were often unpopular.
Yes... a few hundred years ago, something happened. The dwarves destroyed a small kingdom that bullied them, which angered the surrounding countries. But when they arrived, the dwarves had all disappeared.
When the dwarves appeared again, it was more than a hundred years ago. At that time, the dwarven technology had already taken shape. Although the dwarves who appeared later were still active among adventurers in the form of meat shields, they already had superb forging techniques and extraordinary perception of magic tools.
It's just that most of the cities in the Dwarf Kingdom are built underground, and there are few traces of Dwarves on the ground. There are more Elves, or Goblins. So your map is wrong, but it's not wrong.
After all, that place does belong to the Goblin Kingdom, but the Goblins have now been driven to a small marginal area by the Dwarves. The Goblins that exist in the Dwarf Kingdom are because they don’t want to kill all the Goblins, and they also hope that the Goblins can help them stop the humans who are plotting evil.”
Mo Fan didn't like reading history, so he didn't know much about these things. The map of the demon clan didn't have any loopholes. There were no mistakes in the areas of Qin, Holy Light Empire, and Blue Sea Empire.
The reason why the dwarves and goblins were not clearly marked was because it didn't matter to the demons which one it was. They were the kind of beings that could easily defeat them if they wanted to.
Goblins are essentially demons. Don't think they are elves just because their name contains the word "jing". They don't have the noble qualities of elves.
In reality, goblins are greedy, irritable, and lustful. But they are not very strong. Therefore, goblins are often used as cannon fodder for demons.
Naturally, the goblins were unwilling to continue like this, so the goblin king, the Goblin King, led his people to leave the demon tribe and live in a marginal area, which is now the location of the Dwarf Kingdom.
No one in the demon tribe felt angry or regretful about the goblins' departure. After all, in the eyes of the demon tribe, they had no merits other than being cannon fodder. So no one stopped them from leaving.
But no one expected that the dwarves, who had similar experiences to the goblins, would also go to that place and compete with the goblins for territory.
In Shadow City, there are not only dwarves, but also many aliens. In fact, they are orcs, but there are also differences among orcs.
For example, his whole body is full of beast features, and he looks like a beast standing up.
There are also creatures that are half beast and half human, such as those with beast claws on their limbs and a human body, or centaurs.
Finally, humans have more characteristics, while beasts have only a few. For example, if a person has a cat's tail, this actually counts as a cat's tail, and it is quite popular among humans.
Generally speaking, they are all orcs, or half-orcs, but in the end they are all collectively referred to as aliens. Because there are not only some with animal characteristics, but also some with insect characteristics, so the collective term alien is more convenient.
Anyway, they all refer to humans who have non-human characteristics.
Although Xiyue likes reading and knows all these, this is her first time seeing one. After all, most aliens are unwilling to enter the core cities of the country. Most of them are in the peripheral cities, near some dangerous areas for supplies and training.
So the weak Xiyue had never seen these strange people before. Not to mention Mo Fan, although he knew it was rude to stare, but Mo Fan couldn't help it.
A living beast girl, Fury. And some... uh... heavy-mouthed and curious insect girls.
Mo Fan couldn’t even imagine how many otakus’ XP would have been damaged if this had happened in his previous life.
Mo Fan and Xi Yue were both walking around the Shadow City in tacit understanding, not mentioning a word about the mission.
The two wandered around Shadow City, and there were some shops run by aliens and blacksmith shops run by dwarves. They both went in and looked around with great interest.
If you buy it, there is a great risk of being ripped off. So unless the item is really useful, Mo Fan will never give up. In the previous life, the anti-fraud publicity was quite effective. At least Mo Fan was able to stop Xi Yue from buying it.
However, there was one type of store that Mo Fan couldn't refuse.
Interracial shop!!!
