Chapter 60: Chapter 59 “Mysterious Black Serpent City” and “Building a Longbow” (Seeking Chase Reading)

Translator: 549690339

Serpent Head City, within the Jasmine Flower Tavern.

At the tavern counter, a few lavishly dressed young men and women were whispering amongst themselves.

From this group, the eyes of the only two young women kept shifting towards the other side.

On the other side of the tavern counter…

“Vernon, you captured all of our attention the moment you arrived.”

A young man casually handed Milton Cheney a glass of wine, his tone seemingly reproachful.

Upon hearing this, Milton Cheney simply smiled a faint smile without responding.

He took the wine glass and gently sipped the wine.

By this time, nearly ten days had passed since Milton had arrived in Serpent Head City.

There was no denying, compared to Black River City, Serpent Head City was like heaven to earth.

If it were not for the fact that Milton had personally spent these few days in Serpent Head City, it would be hard to imagine that two cities from the sterritory could be so different.

If Black River City was considered a magnified slum, then without a doubt

Serpent Head City would be comparable to a magnified rich neighborhood.

The streets here were practically free of trash, and all the people walking through the city were extremely well-dressed.

As for the black-haired young man in front of Milton, Brin, he was someone Milton had met due to an accident.

It could be said that the two got acquainted through adversity. Milton who had just arrived at Serpent Head City, almost ‘taught’ Brin a lesson.

In short, their current relationship was quite good. At least Milton did not take the previous joke to heart.

“Oh, I’ve found out sinformation you wanted about a place where a good longbow could be forged.”

“I usually don’t pay much attention to this sort of thing, but these past few days I did ask around for you.”

“There are very few blacksmith shops in the city, but if we’re talking about a place that could craft a good longbow, Old Jim’s blacksmith shop in the city center should suffice.”

Seeing the faint smile on Milton’s face, Brin shook his head helplessly.

He knocked on the counter with his hand, refilling his glass of wine before he finally said,

“Thank you, I’ll check it out.”

Hearing Brin’s words, Milton softly answered to show he understood.

This was just a casual word he said earlier, he wasn’t expecting Brin to take it seriously.

The longbow he had taken from the bandit was of too poor quality, it had snapped after just a couple pulls.

That’s why he thought of buying a good quality longbow.

After all, traveling around the kingdom, a longbow was more convenient than a long sword.

Hearing what Milton had to say, Brin seems to recall something else, he added, “Oh yes, the map you askedto watch out for, I’ve asked around. There’s simply none being sold.”

“I’ve never paid attention to this matter before, ever since I was born, I’ve never been to Black Serpent City.”

Brin’s tone was also somewhat surprised, it seemed strange that he could not buy a map despite his connections.

Hearing his words, a hint of confusion appeared in Milton Cheney’s eyes.

It wasn’t just Brin, after arriving in Serpent Head City, Milton had also inquired at multiple shops if they were selling maps to Black Serpent City.

However, there was no doubt that none were being sold.

The reason Milton wanted to buy such a map was quite simple.

Furthermore, on the large map, only the vague words “Black Serpent City” were written in the territory of Blackwater.

As for exactly where Black Serpent City was, and how to get to Black Serpent City, there were no markings at all.

This was completely different from Serpent Head City and Blackwater City.

You could say that Black Serpent City seemed incredibly mysterious. Everyone knew that it was in Blackwater Territory, but no one knew the exact location.

“Do you know anyone who has been to Black Serpent City?”

Milton gently sipped the wine, then asked.

Brin immediately wrinkled his eyebrows in thought. After a while, he shook his head.

“Never have. Actually, if you hadn’t mentioned Black Serpent City, I would have forgotten that such a city even existed in Blackwater Territory. This city’s existence is very low profile within Blackwater Territory.”

Milton was somewhat surprised by his response.

In his opinion, Black Serpent City should be a core city like Far East City.

It was unexpected that even the original inhabitants of Blackwater Territory knew so little about this city.

“What about the Blackwater Lord, that Earl Black Serpent, have you ever seen him?”

Milton asked again.

This tBrin answered more decisively.

“Never! The one controlling the Serpent Head City is also from the Black

Serpent Clan, but it isn’t the Blackwater Lord.”

“This…”

Milton Cheney slightly knit his brows, swirling the wine glass in his hand.

Both his wish to obtain a map of Black Serpent City and ask about the route to get there were for a reason.

He had a letter from Earl Arthur that needed to be delivered to Earl Black Serpent.

If not for this, Milton Cheney wouldn’t really be interested in Black Serpent City.

“You want to go to Black Serpent City? Actually, I know someone who would definitely know where it is.”

Seeing Milton in deep thought, Brin spoke again.

Before Milton could ask further, Brin had already mentioned the person.

“That would be the Serpent Head City Lord. He would definitely know the exact location of Black Serpent City.”

Upon hearing these words, Milton glanced at Brin speechlessly.

I’m not that stupid, obviously I know that the Serpent Head City Lord would know where Black Serpent City is.

Brin seemed to have realized that he had made a foolish comment, and thus laughed awkwardly.

However, an idea did arise in Milton’s mind.

“Maybe I really should ask the Serpent Head City Lord?”

Tpassed, and a few days later.

At this time, Milton, who had arrived at the central area of Serpent Head City, found a blacksmith shop according to the location provided by Brin.

Milton looked up, leaving no doubt that the word ‘Jim’s Blacksmith Shop’ was written on the plaque.

“It’s here for sure.”

Milton stepped into the blacksmith shop.

This shopfront exposed outside was just a facade, the actual blacksmith shop was a remodeled small courtyard.

Upon entering the courtyard, Milton found that it was quite spacious.

In the yard, there was only a middle-aged man with a black beard busying himself.

The large hammer in his hand kept striking, producing a large number of sounds of iron collision.

“Looking to buy weapons? They’re all over there, go choose one yourself.”

Upon seeing Milton, the black-bearded middle-aged man allowed his gaze to linger on Milton’s face for a second. Upon noticing a young man, he casually said.

“When did Official Knights becso common.”

Milton murmured to himself.

This level of handling iron at least required the realm of an Official Knight.

Whether or not he is a Grand Knight, Milton couldn’t tell with just his naked eye.

Seeing the black-bearded middle-aged man saying a line and then ignoring him while busying himself with his own tasks, Milton walked around the yard.

The weapons the middle-aged man told him to choose from were piled up in a heap on the ground.

If one didn’t know better, they would think these were all defective.

Milton casually flipped through the weapons thrown on the ground, and surprise filled his eyes.

These seemingly discarded weapons were exceptionally well-crafted. At this point, these exceptional weapons were carelessly tossed aside.

But Milton didn’t see a longbow among the pile of weapons.

So, he approached the black-bearded man and asked, “Do you have any longbows?”

Hearing Milton’s question, Jim looked at him in surprise.

“You want to buy a bow? I don’t have any finished products here, you’ll need to custom order.”

Milton nodded, “Then I’d like a custom one.”

Jim got up, looked Milton up and down, and then took out a ruler from behind him.

“Giveyour hand, letmeasure.”

Jim measured Milton from head to toe, even measuring his height, arm span, and leg length.

“I can do a custom order, how strong of a bow do you want? Just to be clear, my custom longbows aren’t cheap.”

After clarifying everything, Jim spoke again:

“Fifty gold for a deposit, a total of three hundred gold, pick up the bow in three days!”
