Chapter 229 Luke Stepping Into The Swamp
The tavern, a place more familiar to dwarves than home.
However, this tavern on Paradise Street made Luke feel strange.
Strange wine, strange bartending method, strange appetizers, strange games and strange atmosphere...
Luke didn't know how to describe his mood, but he knew one thing.
Along the way, he felt... It was really cool!
"If only I could live in this place forever."
Luke, whose face was flushed from drinking, suddenly had such a dangerous idea in his mind.
As soon as the idea came up, Luke woke up from the alcohol in an instant.
At this moment, he fully understood why those dwarven captives didn't want to leave.
The ultimate eating, drinking and having fun, there are so many good wine and food every day.
This kind of place can't be found in the entire dwarf empire, who doesn't want to stay.
It's a pity that he is the lord of Iron City, and he is destined to be impossible to stay.
Thinking about it, Luke took another big gulp of spirits.
"Cool"
As Luke said, an idea couldn't help popping up in his mind.
"Do you want to take someone to take away everything in this valley?"
At the thought of this, Luke's heart pounded non-stop, but the thought was quickly extinguished by him.
Not to mention anything else, Li Fan's strength is not bad, and there is black powder. If you want to grab everything here, you must pay a big price.
Moreover, this is the gathering place of the human race. If it really attacks here, it will undoubtedly trigger a big battle between the human race and the dwarf race.
Thinking of this, Luke shook his head and gave up this dangerous idea.
Instead of thinking about these things, let him enjoy everything here now.
Luke began to pour wine into his mouth frantically, and while pouring wine, he didn't forget to stuff food and drink into his mouth.
Luke also had to admit that with the appetizers, the wine really tastes better the more you drink it.
...
Beside Luke, Li Fan, who had been staring at Luke, was secretly relieved when he saw Luke's changed expression.
The fact that the valley is easy to attract coveted eyes is something he has been wary of.
So getting Luke into the valley was actually a risky move.
If Luke had some dangerous thoughts during this period, it would cause them great trouble.
But if they kept hiding because of fear, it would be impossible for their territory to develop.
There will always be a day when the iron will run out. In order to make a deal with the mercenary guild, Li Fan will find cooperation with the dwarves after all.
Even in order to sell good wine to the Dwarf Empire, he had to find someone with a certain status in the Dwarf Empire.
The appearance of Luke is an opportunity, and Li Fan naturally wants to seize it firmly.
Of course, Li Fan dared to let Luke into the valley because of his self-confidence.
1: Li Fan put away high-value items in the valley in advance, such as perfume, soap, and transparent glass.
Without these high-value things, Paradise Street is still beautiful, but in Luke's view, they are just items for enjoyment.
And enjoyment has never been the most important thing for the strong.
2: Luke is not clear, their valley has not been sheltered by the Terran Empire.
Therefore, when Luke came up with the idea of the valley, he would definitely worry about the possible war between the two clans.
3: Li Fan is confident that their territory will grow very quickly.
In Li Fan's view, it won't take long for their territory to grow to the point where even without the protection of the human empire, the four major clans would not dare to act rashly.
The proof is that in less than half a year, their valley already has a strength barely comparable to that of a city.
...
The fact is the same as what Li Fan thought, although Luke likes Paradise Street very much at the moment, he has no idea of taking it as his own at all.
In his opinion, no matter how beautiful this valley is, in the end it is just something for pleasure.
Gastronomy should not be considered at all in countries where there is insufficient food.
The Dwarf Empire is short of food right now.
Fine wine is very attractive to dwarves, but at the same time, the material for wine making is the most important.
If there is no food to make wine, even the method of making the best wine in the world is useless.
As for fun stuff, Luke doesn't think too much about it.
In the eyes of a strong man like him, indulging in enjoyment is the most undesirable thing.
Luke can cultivate to level 5, and his willpower is naturally strong enough.
Therefore, although Paradise Street is beautiful, it doesn't have much value in Luke's eyes.
Coupled with the deterrence of the human race, Luke has completely given up the idea of shooting the valley.
...
Early the next morning, Luke walked out of the hotel room full of energy.
The moment he stepped out of Paradise Street, his expression was a little dazed.
Although he told himself countless times that the strong must not indulge in pleasure, his body was extremely honest.
"Or, stay another day."
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Luke was taken aback.
He couldn't help but cursed: "This damn place is poisonous, no, I have to leave quickly, I can't stay in this place any longer."
After scolding Luke, he immediately found Li Fan.
According to the agreement with Li Fan, since the 131 captives stayed voluntarily, Luke could not force the other party to leave.
Regarding this, Luke seemed indifferent anyway. After all, these 131 dwarves were under the hands of others, and it would be no loss to him if they couldn't take them back.
But Li Fan felt extremely sorry because of this, and said that he would give Luke a lot of wine.
While delivering the wine, Li Fan also gave Luke a big smile.
No matter how Luke looked at Li Fan's face, he could only feel the word treacherous.
But when he thought of the taste of these fine wines, he still couldn't resist the temptation to accept them all.
...
In this way, Luke left the valley with 6 guards, and they came to take the salt after an appointment for a month.
Walking to the mouth of the valley, Luke couldn't help but look back at everything in the valley.
Then he rode on the beast mount and left in a hurry with his guards.
That look turned out to be a bit embarrassing.
However, Luke can't control that much at this time.
Staying there, not to mention whether he can resist the temptation of Paradise Street, the six guards under him will definitely not be able to resist.
These guys actually came to him secretly and asked him to stay for a few more days.
God, this is the first time they have such a request.
Luke felt that it was best not to come to this abyss called heaven again in his life.
...
What Luke didn't know was that although he left the abyss, he took the special products of the abyss with him.
The wine that Li Fan gave him was definitely not for nothing. After tasting the fine nectar and jade dew, it would be difficult for anyone to go back and drink the ale that was similar to horse urine.
It doesn't take long, as long as Luke finishes drinking the wine Li Fan gave him, Luke will naturally think of this place again.
It's not too much for him to buy some wine by then, right?
Isn't it too much to stay for a day or two while buying wine? ...
It's like animals stepping into a swamp, no matter whether they struggle or not, they will slowly sink.
Interestingly, the more struggling animals sink, the faster they sink.
