Chapter 171 Section 25 Dangerous Ideas


Chapter 171 25. Dangerous Thoughts

The snow-covered Breeze City shines in the sunlight that breaks out of the clouds.

The carriage without concealing the emblem drove into Breeze City, and passers-by just stared at it - nearly three months have passed since the release of "The Fall of the Wizard's Tower". Although the classic will never go out of style, the coldness of the North is enough Quench enthusiasm.

Occasionally, someone would wave to the carriage, or follow it, keeping a comfortable distance for Annan - before, the people of Breeze City seemed to be possessed by an elf mentor.

Speaking of the elf mentor's gift, Annan hasn't thought about it yet... The gift needs to make the elf mentor like it but not make her animalistic.

So exclude yourself.

After returning to Breeze City, Annan first went to the warehouse. This warehouse belonging to Andrew Luna became a spinning mill, Annan temporarily lived in, and then became a spinning wheel workshop. Now it has become the warehouse placed by Xingyue Bay in Breeze City.

Annan approached Andrew Luna by the way and asked him about his willingness to open a tavern in Xingyue Bay.

"Well...as long as it's not very expensive."

"Actually, I'm going to give you a tavern, but you have to pay taxes normally."

Annan has not yet decided how to sell the house in Xingyue Bay, so Ingrid asked Ingrid to copy the tax rate from Breeze City and then modify it.

“Aren’t you afraid that I will take away too much of Fast’s business and drive him back to Pinglin Town?” Andrew Luna said deliberately.

“When I came back, I asked the mayor to demolish the Dawn Tavern.” Annan said. He also left a letter to the bard. However, rumors of the "King of the North's Territory" were spreading in the northern reaches of the Kingdom of Rekaner, and the biting cold wind should have brought the news to the bard's ears.

After taking the gifts prepared in advance from the warehouse, Annan returned to the manor.

The magic ring was just filled with magic power. Annan waved his hand to activate it, and a large fire element appeared on the summoning array.

"Go out and play, don't run too far."

Annan asked the fire element not to leave the snow-covered garden and enter the mansion.

Everyone who knew Annan was back came to the living room. Fast still wore the same dirty shirt in the winter, and Lindy pushed Mr. Victor in the wheelchair.

"Oh, my little Annan, you see you have lost a lot of weight..."

Aunt Susan hugged Annan enthusiastically.

"Have I lost weight?"

Annan looked down at his body shape in confusion. The cold makes people want to eat more, but my diet these days is no different from usual.

“Your legs are not as thick as my aunt’s wrists…” Aunt Susan said distressedly, “It’s been a long time since you’ve eaten the food cooked by Aunt Susan, do you still want to eat it?”
< br>"Of course!"

Then, Annan distributed the gifts: Fast's gift was the tavern in Xingyue Bay. Not surprisingly, he was not happy at all. It was Evelin's coquettishness that made him a little bit Looking forward to something in the future.

"Where's my gift, cousin?" Martin came over.

Annan then asked Mr. Fast not to punish Martin these days. Fast readily agreed, but Martin seemed unhappy for some reason...

Go back to the bedroom and open a wooden box and put a fly tied with a bow into a glass bottle.

“This is the fly I finally found in the goods that came from the south.”

Annan lay down in front of the glass bottle and said to the little spider crawling towards the prey. Being in a constant temperature environment and with sufficient food, the little spiders do not hibernate.

Watching the little spider entangle the poor fly, Annan hurriedly ran to the city lord's mansion.

“What happened to Gemma and her Glacier Port?”

The young city lord’s answer was “I can’t understand”: Gemma has received full support from the Diatra family, Even if the road is blocked by heavy snow, goods are still shipped out of the city every day, forming a long convoy on the road from Betar City to Glacier Port.

It seems that it is not a simple story of "thirty years to the east of the Pulani River and thirty years to the west of the Pulani River". "Maybe just like you got the pessimistic conclusion that the North will be captured by the Skaven from clues, they also got the revelation that 'controlling the port means controlling the lifeblood of the North'."


< br>

"Are you interested in going to Betar City?"

Annan stood in front of the window and overlooked the deserted square: "Forget it... The Diatra family asked their second son disguised as a man to rob the port. Explanation They don't want to put the dispute in the open, and my appearance may intensify the conflict..."

As for Gema and her Glacier Port... You have only a handful of soldiers, but my elemental army is endless.

"Disguised as a man?" Olmedo's attention turned away from the official business on the desk.

“My second sister said it.”

Leila had no reason to lie to herself.

Spreading the rumor that Gemma is a rat-man before departure is only of some use in Breeze City. Bethal City is under the control of the Diatra family. Anyone who dares to slander someone will either disappear the next day or be imprisoned in a dungeon.

Speaking of the dungeon, Annan asked: "How are Parha and Black Tierres doing?"

"Palha and Black Tierres 'falsely accused' you, the North The kings of the realm were all hanged."

"What about Steelkin?"

Olmedo took a moment to recall the name: "The man you were in the dungeon with? He's still in the dungeon."

"Can you give him to me?"

It was the time for Xingyue Bay to employ people. Steelkin had a strong sense of justice and was a professional, so he was suitable to be the captain of the guard.

"Okay."

Annan looked seriously at Olmedo, who was gradually furrowing his beautiful eyebrows: "Thank you for helping me during this time. I cherish this relationship very much. But everything must come to an end...it's time for me to leave."

When Olmedo almost asked "Where are you going?" Annan continued: "See you next year."

"...Bloem, kick him out."

"Myself Let’s go.”

Annan, who had deceived Olmedo, was in a happy mood, finishing the last matters in Breeze City and embarking on the road back to his territory.

Bypassing the Mage Tower and passing through the church area in the southwest corner of Breeze City, Annan could not help but think of the dangerous idea of ​​summoning gods. He stopped temporarily, leaving Blom and the knights to stay outside and entered the Church of Fortune.

A solid gold statue of the Goddess of Fortune stands in the church - something only the Goddess of Fortune and her followers would do. Some believers whispered mass in the lobby benches.

A priest greeted Annan. Annan looked up at the statue of the goddess of wealth with sad eyes and asked: "Can I touch it?"

"The venerable King of the North, even if You shouldn't blaspheme a god..."

"You misunderstood. I very much agree with the philosophy of the Church of Fortune." Annan handed over a bag of gold coins.

“A lady will always be kind to those who agree with Him.”

The pastor accepted the money bag with a friendly smile and led Annan to the statue of the god.

"I feel the radiance of the gods."

Annan said after touching the toes of the golden statue, saying goodbye to the satisfied priest, leaving the church and Breeze City.

Summoning gods requires taking risks. If the goddess of wealth is really summoned...

The team then speeds up. At noon, three days before the apocalypse forecast, a beautiful bay town appears in front of them. .
