Old Gore is one of the elders who follows Loki. Google search reading

16 years ago, Old Gore risked his life to deliver the anchor that Rocky needed for his first sailing trip.

When Loki returned to the village, Old Gore had been beaten unconscious by Duke Bernard's men.

Even so, he did not reveal the origin of the anchor.

Later, he participated in the battle to defend Hanshui Village, and even followed Loki into the Leviathan's Violin to complete the exploration of the Obsidian Pyramid.

The mask of Horus that imprisoned Nefertiti was removed from the Golden Mountain by his big hands. The successful escape of Loki and others from Leviathan's entrails also relied on the Pharaoh's robes he obtained.

After returning to Hanshui Village, he exchanged all the loot to Loki in exchange for the fast three-masted ship.

He was the first of all the Vikings to come to Constantinople as a captain.

In the following ten years, he began to cooperate with the Waldorf family to develop a new route to the New World. He traveled back and forth on this route dozens of times and successfully opened up a new route for Byzantium.

It was only now that he was unable to go to sea that he could live a stable life in the city.

This time when he heard that Sartre and Gulaur were coming, Mr. Gore would rather walk to the front door to greet him on crutches, because these were friends he had made in Scandinavia more than ten years ago. .

"Old Gore!"

"I didn't expect you to be alive!"

Sartre stepped forward.

Even if he hugs the old man, he doesn't dare to use too much force now.

He didn't say much because seeing this old man reminded him of the carpenter Sanchi.

Sanji Marashi was also one of the first subordinates to follow Loki. Back then, Hanshui Village was poor and cold, and when craftsmen were extremely limited, no one was willing to come to work in this poor land.

Only Sanchi was willing to follow Loki. The first three-masted ship Loki acquired was built by Sange.

It is a pity that this loyal subordinate left his life in the English Islands.

Until his death, he never saw Mr. Gore again.

"Comforting people" is extremely difficult for Vikings. In the icy and bitter Scandinavia, all mortals face the threat of death at any time. After death, being promoted to the Hall of Valor is not a disaster, but the highlight of one's life.

The vast majority of people don't need any comfort at all. Norse doesn't even have a word for "comfort."

"Brothers are tired from traveling, why don't we get in the car first and I'll take you around the city."

"Then let's go to a higher-end place to eat!"

Right in front of the queue, two flag bearers raised the striped flag symbolizing the "Starago Family". A convoy of nearly 20 carriages started.

The surrounding residents pushed aside one after another, and a considerable number of people even bowed their heads and saluted. All this stems from the publicity of Loki, the "King of Paris" by bards and opera scripts in recent years, as well as the influence of the Mellantin Skylark Chamber of Commerce in countries around the Mediterranean.

The Viking princess's ability to successfully obtain a seat in the Senate is inseparable from the successful operation of the Chamber of Commerce.

By AD810, out of every three soaps sold in Constantinople, one came from whale oil supplied by the "Skylark Chamber of Commerce".

In addition, 20% of the furs, 7% of the keels, and all the potions in the Hall of Valor in the city need to go through the suppliers of the Skylark Chamber of Commerce.

At this time, Mohlantin can really be called a "rich country."

Therefore, even though she was living alone in Constantinople with her only son, no one dared to despise her.

Constantinople before the King's birthday is the most lively time of the year.

The crowded streets and alleys are filled with residents from all continents. Judging from the color of their skin, they range from black to white, with at least a dozen different colors in between. Although they all speak unfamiliar languages, travelers from different countries do business without much hindrance.

Just use your finger to point to the product, and the vendor will naturally use his finger to explain the price.

Merchants from different countries use this method to complete trade.

Even more exaggerated are the nobles walking in the crowded streets.

Paris, the royal city of the Kingdom of Normandy, could already be regarded as a large city in the Western Continent. While Sartre and Grauer were wandering around the city, they could often see aristocratic carriages and honor guards leading the way.

However, at this time, on the streets of Constantinople, four or five honor guards could be seen in any street and alley holding flagpoles high to clear the way.

The family emblems of the nobles come in all kinds, some are decorated with animals, some are decorated with plants, and some directly write some obscure ancient characters. For a while, it is completely impossible to distinguish where they come from.

Sitting opposite Sartre, Phoenix knew everything he knew.

"The ones with three white sturgeons painted on the purple flag belong to the 'Mariupol Family' from the Sea of ​​Azov. They were originally a branch of the Slavs, but they have done a lot of business with the Romans in recent years and have been quickly eliminated. Assimilation of the civilized world.”

"Their main business is deep-sea fishing, so the family flag uses the sturgeon they sell the most."

"The sky blue flag that says 'Fire purifies the soul' is a member of the Abbas family."

"From the size of the team, we can easily tell that this is the largest team among all the nobles. Every time they travel, the Abbas family will organize a team covered in pitch-black robes to escort them."

"Today's team is close to a hundred people. They may be concubines or collateral descendants of a certain prince who came to the city to watch the excitement. I guess we have to stay away for a while."

Constantinople is the center of all cities in the Western Continent.

Merchants in the Western Continent often say "All roads lead to Rome", referring to this large city located at the intersection of the East and the West.

In this city, it is inevitable for nobles to face each other. The established rule is that small families give way to large families, and small businesses give way to large businesses.

Today, when welcoming Sat and Guraul, Phoenix flew the flag of the "Skylark Business Association".

Even if he used the Starrag A-class royal flag, he had to give way to the Abbas family, not to mention a large business association.

The group of black-clothed people from the Abbas family slowly passed in front of several people.

At the end of the team, four muscular giants with black bodies appeared, with shackles on their hands and feet. A huge sedan chair was carried on their shoulders.

On the sedan sat a tall figure in a purple coat.

"My goodness, this prince seems to be well prepared!"

"See the purple-robed man at the end of the team? This is 'Purple-robed Hadshan', the gladiator lord with a mission in Constantinople!"

"He met with the Abbasid family. It seems that there will be many Arab sorcerers in the duel this time. Haha, tomorrow is the first gladiatorial show. The two of them appearing together today must have been planned in advance."

Hearing the word gladiatorial show, Gulaul immediately became interested.

"From what you mean, we need to represent the Chamber of Commerce to enter the Colosseum when we enter the city this time?"

"Who is our opponent?"
