The

small town of Cross, located at the crossroads of the four empires, is like a bustling crossroads. The town is surrounded by a mysterious forest, the Giant Curtain Forest, which occupies almost half of the map and is the size of an empire.

The Iron Flame Empire, the Sky Feather Empire, the Krisman Empire, and the Deep Blue Sky Empire, these four empires are like four huge stone pillars, supporting the stability of this continent. To the north and south, there are two unique empires – the North Sea Kingdom and the Southern Barbarian Wilderness Kingdom, each with its own unique culture and history.

The Giant Curtain Forest is one of the most mysterious places on the continent. Its edge coincides with the junction of the four empires, as if it were a natural barrier. The forest is full of endless dangers, but at the same time, it is also pregnant with endless opportunities. As a result, countless adventurers, criminals, and all sorts of other characters flock here in search of their own opportunities.

The streets of the town are filled with people from all over the world, and various languages and cultures are intertwined here. It's chaotic here, but it's also orderly. The rules here are simple and straightforward: the strong survive. In such an environment, everyone is fighting for their own interests and working hard for a glimmer of life.

In the small town of Cross, a unique institution was born – the Bounty Tavern. This tavern not only provides a variety of valuable information, but also issues various bounty missions, and has become the focus of competition between various forces. Due to its unique status, it has also become a neutral place that attracts all kinds of people.

Although on the surface, the town

of Cross is just an ordinary town, in fact, it is a place where elites from all over the world gather, and various forces meet here, and undercurrents surge. As the center of the town, the various bounty taverns are also a huge information exchange station, which is crowded and lively every day.

On the streets of the town, all kinds of people come and go, looking for tasks or trading information. There are not only adventurers and mercenaries from the four empires, but also strange people from the North Sea Kingdom and the Southern Barbarian Wilderness. They communicate and collide here, forming a colorful picture.

So, despite its small size, the town's influence across the continent is not to be underestimated. It is not only a meeting point for various forces, but also a paradise for adventurers and hunters. Driven by the Bounty Tavern, the town has come to life and become a world of opportunities and challenges.

In the heart of the small town of Cross, a unique building stands: Toms's Bounty Tavern. The tavern is like a meeting point of information, where various intelligence and bounty missions converge, attracting the attention of countless people. The interior of the tavern is lavishly decorated and the atmosphere is warm, and various sounds are intertwined to form a vivid picture.

The Twilight Tavern is the name of Toms's Bounty Tavern. At dusk, the tavern's emblem, two clenched fists, stands out in the setting sun. This logo not only represents the identity of the tavern, but also symbolizes the credibility and strength of Toms. Walking into the Twilight Tavern, you can feel a unique atmosphere, which is not only a place for trading intelligence and tasks, but also a world full of opportunities and challenges.

On the ground floor of the Dusk Tavern, there is a distinctive sign - two clenched fists. This logo represents not only Toms's Bounty Tavern, but also a symbol of his personal credibility. This logo is not only impressive, but also makes people feel a strong sense of trust. Here, you can buy any intelligence you want, as long as you have enough resources and strength. This is one of the reasons why the Twilight Tavern is so popular.

Inside the Dusk Tavern, the light is soft and the atmosphere is warm. The hanging lanterns glow with a yellowish glow that illuminates every corner. The walls are adorned with various loot and flags, showcasing the glory of the past. In the center of the tavern, at a large oak table, Thomas sat quietly, going about the tavern's daily business.

"Please come in!" said Tom's gentle voice, accompanied by the sound of brisk footsteps.

The door was pushed open, and a messenger in a dark blue uniform and a feathered hat walked in. He held an exquisite letter in his hand, and the envelope was stamped with the coat of arms of the Navy.

"Dear Lord Toms, there is a letter from the Deep Blue Sky Empire, please check it. The messenger said respectfully, and handed the letter to Toms.

Thomas nodded slightly, motioning for the Courier to wait for a moment. He opened the letter and read it carefully. The contents of the letter seemed to be somewhat important, and Thomas's expression gradually became serious.

"Thank you very much," Toms looked up at the messenger, "you can go back to your life." "

The

messenger bowed respectfully, "Thank you for your hospitality and have a great day." Then he withdrew.

As the door shut, the Dusk Tavern fell silent again. Thomas looked down in contemplation for a moment, then picked up his pen and wrote something on the paper. In this chaotic world, the Twilight Tavern is not only a neutral place to trade, but also a bridge between the various forces.

Thomas sighed and put down the letter in his hand, "yes, eventful. All countries are competing in secret, and there is only one fuse missing. He rubbed his temples, visibly feeling a little tired from the current situation.

In the dim light, Brother Luo walked out slowly, with a hint of sharpness and murderous aura in his eyes, which was completely different from the gentle impression he usually gave people. His words revealed seriousness and concern, "Toms, this time the Heavenly Feather Empire's bounty has indeed caused a stir. Since the establishment of the Celestial Feather Empire, such a bounty has not been offered more than three times, but each time it has caused great turmoil. "

Thomas was silent for a moment, a deep glint in his eyes. He tapped lightly on the table, as if organizing his thoughts. "Yes, Roger, this Tianyu Empire's bounty will undoubtedly be a huge variable. Forces on all sides are secretly watching, looking for opportunities. But no one knows what kind of storm this bounty will eventually cause. "

The two sat opposite each other, and there was an oppressive aura in the air. At this critical juncture, any small action or decision can trigger unpredictable consequences. And the Twilight Tavern, as the meeting point of this world, is about to usher in an unprecedented storm.

However, this letter is like a spark that threatens to ignite the whole situation. As a bounty tavern secretly supported by the Deep Blue Sky Empire, the Twilight Tavern is nominally neutral, but in this intricate world, neutrality is often only a relative concept.

Thomas knew that their status and influence on this continent were inseparable from the support of the Deep Blue Sky Empire. As the saying goes, "eating people with soft mouths and taking people with short hands", they will inevitably be subject to some restrictions when they act on this continent. And this letter is the key they need to be careful about.

Thomas carefully read the contents of the letter again. Although the words in the letter were extremely subtle, he understood that it contained the intentions and expectations of the Deep Blue Sky Empire. He needs to weigh it carefully, both to maintain the tavern's neutral status and not to live up to the expectations of the Deep Blue Sky Empire.

In these turbulent times, every force is looking for balance. The Twilight Tavern is at the intersection of this world, not only to face the interweaving and collision of various forces, but also to find its own foothold in this chaos.
