Chapter 209 62. Go home
Cheers and applause shook the garden hall, except for the falling flowers, otherwise this scene would be like the return of a warrior who defeated an evil dragon.
"Freeman! Welcome out of prison!"
"You're good for it!"
"Where's Andy? Let's see Andy!"< br>
The gazes cast by the nobles no longer contained the previous disgust and confusion. They looked at the old orc as if they were looking at Freeman.
This is the emotion that a wonderful story will bring to the audience. Nobles who have not been exposed to magical images will have difficulty distinguishing it from reality.
Annan smiled back reservedly, and the old orc expressed his remembrance. A similar scene in his memory was when he was caught by humans when he was a child, put in a cage and thrown into the market, and was watched by curious residents.
While Mrs. Winter is still there, Annan sells the record magic stone to the nobles who are still recalling the story: the record magic stone that records "Betal's Redemption" originally costs 100 gold coins, but can be purchased now for only 90 gold coins.
This is not aristocratic at all, but more like a businessman through and through. But the King of the North, Lady Winter, and "Freeman" were enough to make the nobles crowd in front of the piled magic stones, wave their money bags and say, take my money.
Annan took the opportunity to harvest the nobles' money. Regardless of the feelings brought by the story or the kindness towards Freeman, they will tend to be more rational as time goes by. At that time, they felt that it was not worth spending 90 gold to buy the magic stone, and they also felt that it was stupid to spend so many gold for an orc who could not be seen or touched.
The garden auditorium after the premiere naturally turned into a banquet. Annan asked the old orc to continue to guard potential customers at the banquet, and first returned to the deputy warden's mansion to urge everyone to pack their things.
They have to prepare to run away.
Annan has an ambiguous relationship with the Diatra family, provoking succubi, vampires and mercenary groups, and also has an affair with the Vault. Until now, he is still safe and relies on the protection of Lady Winter. But as Lady Winter leaves tomorrow, Annan will face the dangers of the outside world.
Either expose the Elemental Legion or leave - Annan chose the latter. Anyway, the affairs of Betar City were basically completed except for investigating Gema.
Annan came to the orphanage first. "Betal's Redemption" was a bit complicated for children who had difficulty concentrating, so they ran to sleep or play halfway through.
Let Francois and Joan return the children to the mansion, and it will be next year to see Ms. Mia again. Annan told her that she could go to Xingyue Bay to meet them.
Then he ran to the dungeon, released the innocent and aliens, and sent the prisoners who were not guilty enough to die to the first floor, telling them that they still had a chance to redeem themselves.
As for resigning, it is just a matter of passing words.
Annan returned to the official residence. This single-family house, which was only slightly larger, could no longer accommodate so many people.
"You brought too many people back..." Francois said.
“I don’t think it is much at all.”
The children and prisoners sent to Xingyue Bay are only a drop in the bucket. Together, they can only make the population of Xingyue Bay exceed 2,000. , close to a small town.
Annan can't wait to return to Xingyue Bay, squandering the massive gold coins earned from this trip to Betar, building more houses, completing city walls, seaports, schools, research and development... It is said that it is imitating the mage tower. The clock tower is also nearing completion - the original planned height of 10 meters was later changed to 30 meters because it was similar to the mansion building, so it should be nearing completion.
And build more wonders!
Statistics of the harvest from this trip to Betar City:
More than 60 magic stones from "The Fall of the Wizard's Tower", more than 50 magic stones from "Betal's Redemption", and more than a dozen gold coins every day from the theater screenings , and their sales are still increasing;
The high dungeon wall that costs one thousand gold coins but only costs a few gold coins from the workers;
The cement that sells at five times the price ;
Hundreds of people composed of children, adults and aliens;
The friendship between Lady Winter, Lady Mia and the nobles; Claudia who minimized the cost of the magic stone.
Before opening the portal, Annan once again invited Tina Wright to join Xingyue Bay. Although fraudsters and illusionists are not difficult to find, two cooperations gave Tina enough to understand Annan's thoughts.
Tina Wright rejected Annan's invitation and stole his money and ran away. Fortunately, Annan didn't have the habit of carrying too much money, so only a few gold coins and a few silver coins were stolen.
"There is a kind of bird that should not be kept in a cage, because every one of its wings is stained with the glory of freedom~" Franco disguised as "Astolfo" from his appearance to his voice Yis joked, and Annan responded by preparing a bowl of kerosene and confetti to throw in his face.
He had endured it for too long.
Opening the portal, the children curiously came to Breeze City from Betar City, followed by the prisoners and the aliens who were unable to fight. The remaining aliens would leave with Annan.
The official residence is empty again, but the kittens are gone too. When Annan thought it had escaped through the portal, he found the kitten huddled in his warden uniform.
The kitten was found, but there was still one person yet to be found: the elf mentor.
When he opened the portal for the second time and moved the whole box of gold coins, Annan said doubtfully: "We didn't find the elf mentor..."
"Teacher Irelanze is proficient in the art of transformation. Maybe she is disguising herself like Francois?"
What Olmedo's words reminded Annan and Francois of, they both raised their heads. Looking towards the bedroom - the kitten was lying in the clothes on the bed.
Thinking of Annan and the kitten sharing the same room these days... this kind of thing is so terrifying that it is indescribable.
Annan and Francois tiptoed to the bedroom, and solemnly said to the kitten lying on the bed napping: "We already know...can you change back?"
The kitten glanced at them lazily, feeling a little regretful and helpless. Its vertical pupils suddenly turned golden, its shape began to change, and it spoke the common language:
"I'm just a golden dragon passing by."
A shrunken mini golden dragon appeared on the bed, flapped its wings and flew out of the window, leaving Annan and Francois stunned in the cold wind.
When the bard learned about this, he said: "The golden dragon is like this, suddenly breaking into your life like a mischievous goblin. Their sense of justice makes them like to "make trouble" everywhere, as long as you don't do bad things. Don't be afraid of them, you will be rewarded for doing good things."
Annan felt regretful. If he had known that the kitten was a golden dragon, he would have hugged it all day long and said good things about Xingyue Bay. Maybe there will be a second dragon nest in Xingyue Bay...
So who is the elf mentor? !
The next day, Annan set out early in the morning when he was ready. They happened to encounter Mrs. Winter's motorcade. They met briefly in the city and walked together along the streets that people avoided.
"When will you come to Xingyue Bay to take a look?"
"There will be such a day."
Farewell to each other, the two teams separated at the fork in the road, Annan Heading north, Lady Winter's convoy heads east.
