LonFall Pass undergoes a huge changes since the defeat of the monster beast. Also, the emergence of new currency in LonFall stupefied the people. Though most people wondered why the prince would create another currency. However, when they realized they couldn't understand the train of thought of the prince. The citizen welcome the new beginning with an open heart.
Now, there are four currency in LonFall Pass. The Brown, Green, Purple and Blue. One Brown paper note equals 100 copper coins. One Green paper note equal 100 silver coins while 100 Gold coins equal one Purple note. One Blue Paper note equals to 100 Purple note. However, Blue Paper note was readily available for the public only use by the government and royal family.
A couple of hundred of meters form LonFall Pass a group of people were ridding their horse with great, leaving a trail of dust after them. Everyone on the horse in dark knight armor, giving out frightening aura. On their waist was a sharp sword.
"Captain, are you sure it safe in LonFall Pass. Everyone knows that the monster beast could attack at any time." A burly man shouted with his long brown beard flustered with the wind.
A young man in his late twenties rode the horse, bending a little forward while holding the horse rein. "According to people. The monster attack happens late in the evening. We only need to get some local to show us where we can easily hunt rank 1 and rank 2. And before done. We are out of the city."
"Better. I don't wanna spend any damn seconds in that hell of a city." The burly shouted, soothing his beard.
"I don't know why people choose to live in the city. I heard the curse prince was sent their also." A female voice echoed from the left side of the captain.
"Yes, the prince was just a curse to the city and the BlueFire family. I perfectly understand why the City lord banished the curse son."
"What's that!?" A shouted came from behind the three in front.
Everyone raised their head when they heard the sudden shout. They inhale a deep breath and slow down the speed of their horse. Their eyes darting from one side to another.
"Is this really LonFall Pass." The burly man whispered.
"We soon find out. Everyone be on your guard." The captain announced with a stern voice. He slapped his black horse and the horse pick up speed.
After a couple of minute, the knight arrived the City wall. Their hands rested on their sword while their gaze fixed on two young man siting under a tenth with a table. They look at them casually without any fear.
"Get down from your horse. You need to register before entering the city" One of the young man shouted.
The five adventurers knights looked at each other and wait for a moment. The captain of the team looked at the surrounding. 'Where did they got the confidence to stop us. No one dare to stop an adventurer. Let me see where your confidence from.' He snorted in his heart.
Hiyaah
The captain charge forward without uttering a word. At once, the other charge after their captain looking at the two men in disdain. 'Let see how you stop us. Idiots.' They thought. When they noticed the two didn't tried to stop them. They raised their brow.
'Something is different about this city. This doesn't match what the people say about LonFall Pass.' He thought but he didn't slow his speed.
"Is that a bridge?" The burly man said in a low voice.
"Why would they put it there." The female asked in puzzlement.
"Let find out." The captain answered.
Unknown the the adventurers, a red flag had been raised by one of the men on the tent. When the adventurers were a few feet from the bridge, suddenly, the bridge raised into the air. What!
When the adventurers widened their eyes and gasped. Just then, the captain saw a deep tunnel with various sharp metal inside. His heart missed a beat. "Stop!" He shouted.
However, it was too late. Those at the back didn't see the tunnel and failed to stop their horse in time. Whoosh! Two of the adventurers jumped inside the tunnel with eyes widen. "Help!!!" They screamed. In the end…
The three leading adventurers stopped at the end of the death tunnel, gasping for air. Their chest rising an fallen. Perspiration filled their faces. For a couple of minutes, none of the three said anything. Their eyes glue at the death of their team mates. No part of their body was left in place. The sharp metal pierced everything turning them into smitten. Their armor was nothing but piece of paper.
"What are we going to do?" The burly man whispered.
The took a deep breath and raised his head. He was flabbergasted by the bridge that was still hanged in air. 'What the hell. This is nothing like what the people say.' He screamed in his heart.
"Go and register. This is your last warning. If you tried to ignore LonFall Pass law again. None of you will leave in one piece." A cold female voice came from the city wall.
The three adventurers looked at the city wall but couldn't see any one. Unknown to them, their back was drenched in cold sweats. The burly man hands trembled. He looked at the tunnel and took a step back and shivered.
"Let go and register." The captain whispered and squinted his gaze, looking at the city wall.
Standing in front of the two men under the tent, the three adventurers took a deep breath and dare not looked down on this two people with merely rank 2 novice stage. The two men looked at the face of the three and their edge of their lips curvedupward in disdain.
"Why are you in LonFall Pass and how many days are you preparing to stay." The young man sitting asked taking, a ink brush.
"We're adventurers. We hunts monster beast. We spend three days in the city." The captained.
"OK! That would cost you two Green LP, each."
'What the hell is Green LP!'
