My Level Zero System

Chapter 19 Road to Whesling



Kain followed the map, found the route, and followed it to reach Whesling.

The road system in Akazac is also a way to find your way instead of just going in a certain direction. However, roads that can be recorded on a map have a more assured level of safety.

However, merchants or travelers quite rarely chose these common routes. Because everyone knows it, the risk of being stopped by bandits and robbed will increase.

For that reason, normal caravans will follow their own secret routes to transport goods. If not, they will also have to hire more bodyguards.

Kain didn't have that much hesitation.

If you encounter bandits, punish them once. Because his village was also threatened by mountain bandits, if he did not arrive in time, it was likely that his acquaintances would die.

He just didn't want to witness that, that's all.

During the two days of walking, Kain hardly saw a single person. He looked at the still quite far distance on the map and sighed.

Not having a horse or vehicle to move around is really difficult.

The village chief once told Kain that even Kanzax province was so large that it would take a normal person a lifetime to walk across it all. There may be some exaggeration in this, but it is undeniable that Kanzax province has a very large area.

And the large area is not scary, what's scary is that many places in it are wilderness, with almost no passersby. Even the official route recorded on the imperial map was deserted.

"One week... I don't know if I'll make it in time or not..."

Kain sighed and could only continue on his way.

Suddenly, Kain saw the silhouette of a carriage in the distance. He became happy and quickly ran over.

"Hey! Wait!"

Seeing a call and someone running, the two people in the carriage immediately became tense. Towards Kain who was running, both of them pulled out their swords, also shouting towards Kain.

"Don't come closer!"

Kain stopped, looking at their alert expressions, he understood the problem. So he stopped and held up two names to prove that he had no bad intentions. Talking and laughing at the same time.

"Calm down, I don't mean anything bad."

"You… how do you prove it?"

"I'm not holding a weapon, and if I really wanted to rob you, I definitely wouldn't do this."

"Your arms holding the swords are still shaking."

Kain smiled, these two clearly had no fighting experience at all, and those two swords were just for scare purposes.

The other two turned to look at each other, then turned to look at Kain. Seeing his friendly expression, not like a bad person, the two reluctantly put down their swords, but they were still alert and asked.

"What are you here for?"

"I want a ride to Whesling in five days, is that possible?"

Kain replied.

Although it may not be possible to reach Whesling within five days, it is still possible to reach Whesling. Anyway, to put Kain's mind at ease, the other two would definitely satisfy Kain's request to some extent. As long as his request does not violate their interests.

Anyway, now both of them were in a weak position, Kain could understand that.

"Maybe. But we have a problem, our wheels are broken."

Following someone's finger, Kain saw that one of the carriage's two wheels had been broken in half.

Kain walked over and looked at the wheel for a bit, then spoke calmly.

"This? I can fix this."

"Really? Can you fix it?"

The other two looked doubtful, but Kain just shrugged his shoulders as if this was no big deal.

"It's just a wheel made of wood."

Before leaving work, in order to earn food, Kain also did many different jobs. Sculpting and shaping wood are also among them.

Seeing Kain holding a knife to chop wood, using the knife to skillfully shape the wood, both of them froze for a moment.

"This person doesn't seem to be lying."

"I see it too."

The two whispered to each other while Kain was still burying his head in work.

With [Enhancement Tool] and [Enhancement Body], Kain did this even easier than before.

Very quickly, a wheel whose size was not too different from the original wheel was installed on the carriage and fixed.

Because of this, Kain successfully got a ride to Whesling.

While riding, he learned that these two people were traders who sold salt and sugar to people in the villages. Most other sources of revenue are already controlled by large merchants. Just leaving the tiring, miserable, and low-profit jobs for traders like the two of them.

And the reason the two of them don't hire bodyguards is the same. Hiring bodyguards is very expensive because of many external factors such as bandits, monsters,... mainly large caravans that have to hire bodyguards to protect them. goods and assets. As for small traders, they can only pray that they won't be so unlucky.

Luckily, the whole way, not to mention seeing bandits, not even a single person was there. So Kain mostly sat in the back of the carriage watching the sky and clouds, with almost nothing to do.

Two days later, the carriage went near a village to sell salt and sugar. This is also the last trading post before returning to Whesling.

It just seemed like their luck had run out. They did not encounter bandits while walking on the road, but they encountered bandits while doing business in the village.

The reason seemed to be that a young man in the village had led some bandits here. Kain did not know the specific content of the argument between the two sides, but he could tell from the expressions of the people in the village. life and look out.

Just a guy who doesn't want to work but still wants something to stuff his stomach.

While the two traders accompanying Kain and the villagers were frightened by the bandits, he walked forward comfortably, completely ignoring their threats.

Even though the bandits have a large number of people, they don't know how to cooperate with each other. So defeating them with Kain is not much more difficult than defeating Zombies.

When the last bandit fell, Kain threw the young man who had led the bandit to the village for the villagers to deal with themselves. As for the fainting mountain bandits, they were tied up with ropes by others.

Kain initially intended to end the lives of these bandits, but someone stopped him, saying that if he brought the bandits to Whesling City, Kain would be rewarded with money.

Kain thought for a while and then agreed to this proposal.

Because the bandits had to be brought along, the carriage's moving speed slowed down quite a bit. Fortunately, it only took two more days to return to Whesling City.
