Chapter Twenty-Four Capital

  It had been ten days since Han Jin first walked out of the wooden shed with Stillberg's support. As the saying goes, "hurt tendons and bones for a hundred days", Han Jin was able to recover his ability to walk within ten days, which was not easy at all.

  In these ten days, many things happened, and the most important thing that had a profound impact on the future was the fundamental change in the relationship between each other.

  Don't underestimate these ten days. If Han Jin hadn't been injured, after Kaili's emotions returned to normal, they might have chosen to leave and head towards the Beit Alliance. But what would happen when they arrived at the Beit Alliance? It was hard to say where Sasori would go or come from, but Xanthe wouldn't continue to stay with them. She had to find an answer for herself and the Spirit Clan. Obviously, Han Jin and Mo Shikuo didn't have the qualifications to give her an answer. Kaili would also leave; she had her own problems to solve. Until the future, if they still had a chance to meet again, whether they would be friends or enemies was already an unknown number.

  Xanthe and Sasae often engage in fierce debates, with the focus of their arguments being what kind of future the world should head towards. Later, Kiri also joins the fray. Xanthe's identity is already clear: she is a spirit from the Wild Elm City, raised in the subtle changes of the spirit civilization. Sasae has always wandered between cities, understanding the hardships of commoners and slaves, while Kiri represents the privileged class of humans. In other words, their three positions are different, and their views on life and the world are also vastly different, just like a different kind of Three Kingdoms, where they constantly argue with each other, unable to persuade one another, or two people join forces to launch a fierce attack on the third person, only for the original alliance to quickly disband when the topic changes, and new alliances are formed.

  However, their friendship also deepened with the quarrels. In fact, their debates were very childish. To say nothing of changing the world or deciding the future, they couldn't even change a small town. But it must be acknowledged that pointing at the scenery and stirring up words is the characteristic and privilege of young people. As the saying goes, "A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers." If even young people lose their vitality and sharpness, then this world is truly hopeless.

  Moxinke is the most boring, as Han Jin said, he only has some petty cleverness and does not have any grand ideals or thoughts to make the world peaceful. This ideal is of course very lofty, but compared to it, Moxinke would rather become a sword saint who looks down on the world. If a divine spirit appeared and could unconditionally fulfill one of Moxinke's wishes, he would undoubtedly choose the latter without hesitation...

  In the distance, Sasou, Xian Ni Er and others sat silently beside a square stone, Han Jin felt somewhat strange, and poked Mo Xin Ke with his hand: "What's wrong with them? Usually at this time aren't they arguing loudly?"

  "Shh..." Mo Xinkai raised his index finger: "They were just talking about Qiuli's affairs, and now Qiuli is heartbroken."

  "What's wrong?" Han Jin asked with a frown.

  Mo Xinkē briefly introduced, according to Qǐlì's words, she went to Lādōng Town to open an ironwork shop, which was a test for the family. During this period, she would not receive any help from the family, and the initial funds were also fixed and unchanged. The trial period was one year, and it would be used to decide who would be responsible for the family in the future. In fact, according to convention, Qǐlì should have taken the test two years later. Of course, she also understood that the family had let her leave Shèngguān City to avoid being entangled by someone.

  What happened was already known to Jin and Mo Xingke, but later Qili suddenly received a letter from her family, and the one who delivered it was actually her father's old friend, high-ranking warrior Hoffman. Her father told her in the letter that she should leave Radon Town immediately, go far away, and never return to Holy Crown City again.

  Kerrie had no experience, she could only make wild guesses in her mind, but couldn't make an accurate analysis. Sasori and Xanthe made up for her shortcomings. The Black Crow City and Deep City launched a joint attack on Disemark, and Disemark's request for help from the Wild Willow City was rejected again. So, Disemark had only one choice left, to expand its army, and do it at the fastest speed possible!

  The first problem to be solved in expanding the army is, of course, the issue of military expenses. The beautiful family in Holy Crown City is one of the richest families, and became the first target for Disemark to win over. However, due to some unpredictable considerations, the beautiful family did not want to form an alliance with Disemark, and decided to let Beautiful leave Holy Crown City, hoping to delay for a while.

  The thing is, Desmarais' situation was already precarious, where did he have the energy and time to flirt with a businessman? In the end, extremely radical measures were taken, which also led to that letter.

  Although these are all guesses, they have a great impact on Qili, and apart from this, she can't find any other reason.

  Han Jin fell silent for a moment before slowly opening his mouth and saying, "Let's go, we'll also go over and sit down."

  "I'm not going, they just talk about useless things!" Mo Xinkai shook his head and said.

  "Ah..." Han Jin said with a mix of anger and laughter: "Let's go, we should also discuss what to do next."

  Hearing footsteps behind him, Sasori turned his head and said in surprise: "Raphael, how did you come out? Your injury..."

  "It's all right." Han Jin replied as he sat down on a small stone bench.

  Qī lì forced a smile and then lowered her head again, Xian Ni'er looked up and down at Hán Jìn: "Are you really okay?"

  "Of course it's true." Han Jin swung his arm with force to prove his health: "We've been here long enough, shouldn't we go somewhere else?"

  "Where do you want to go?" Xian Ni'er was taken aback.

  "It doesn't matter where we go, at least we need to ask around and see what's going on outside." Han Jin scanned the room: "What does everyone think?"

  "It doesn't matter to me," Sasuke said.

  "Good." Qiu Li looked at Han Jin with a grateful gaze, and even if Han Jin didn't say anything, she would have made this request anyway. Her earlier hesitation was because Han Jin had been injured, but now that he had brought it up himself, it couldn't be better.

  "Where are we going? We have to go somewhere?" Xanthe asked.

  "Go to the eleventh town, it's very prosperous and I'm also quite familiar with the situation there." Mo Xinkai scratched his head and said.

  "Eleventh town? This name is quite strange." Han Jin said curiously.

  "Baiter Alliance has a total of four guard cities, divided into east, south, west and north cities. Under each guard city, there are four large towns, totaling 16, and all the towns are numbered."

  "It seems that the lord of Beit Alliance is a very intelligent and meticulous person." Han Jin's heart moved.

  "The Beit Alliance has no lord, only an alliance leader who changes every three years." Sasou smiled and said: "In fact, the Beit Alliance is controlled by the lords of the four guard cities, and the alliance leader is always rotated among them."

  "Really..." Han Jin thought for a moment: "Xian Ni Er, we should have gained quite a bit over these past few days, right?"

  "What? Afraid I'll embezzle?" Xanier laughed.

  "It's not... you've got to have a clear conscience after all."

  Xian Ni'er opened her own spatial ring, and pieces of magic crystals appeared on the square stone, but the grade of the magic crystals was not high, all were four or five grades, there were more than twenty pieces.

  "How much can these be sold for?"

  "Over a hundred gold coins, and if we meet someone in urgent need, we can even sell them for more." Keli said first.

  Sasuke shrugged his shoulders, and in fact, there was no need for him to ask Han Jin at all.

  "That's enough." Han let out a sigh, now everyone was penniless, Qiuli originally had some money, but it was all taken away by the traitor Villar. To achieve their own aspirations, they could only rely on themselves.

  "What do you want to do?" Xanthe asked.

  "You'll know when the time comes." Han Jin narrowed his eyes: "If a war has already broken out in Holy Crown City, maybe we can sell for an even higher price, heh heh..."

  (Headache...... I wrote Han Jin as An Fei, this is a more foolish mistake, and I have made this kind of mistake several times. But from another perspective, it also proves that my attitude towards typing is very serious, so much so that the name "An Fei" has been deeply engraved in my mind... I remember when I first started writing "刺客魔传", I often wrote An Fei as Qian Bu Li, but Qian Bu Li is three characters, so while making mistakes, I could immediately realize it. Now, I can only rely on everyone's reminders.)
