A strange world

Chapter 602 Chapter 259. Preparations before going to the south

"Mirror, Mirror, who is the enemy lurking in Liberty City?"

"Wayne McKenna."

Annan gave his name to the magic mirror and asked the guards to hand it over to Olmedo, and continued to study in the Mage Tower. After losing his halo, Annan revealed his true talent: it took him five days to construct less than one-fifth of the spell model.

It took about a month to learn the third-level spell, but it was still a bit slow.

"When are you going to leave?" Olmedo asked, finding "Wayne McKenna" at the Morningside Tavern.

Don't get me wrong, this time it has nothing to do with the succubus, but he is an information dealer, the kind of guy who stays in the tavern for dozens of days and conveys what he hears.

He is a native of the Principality of Montable Locke, and was hired by the Kingdom of Rekaner to work as an undercover agent in Liberty City. Olmedo gave him to the northern watchmen to deal with on their own.

"I want to learn all the three-ring spells before setting off." Annan replied.

In fact, there are only a few spells... He will be able to stand on the land in the south before spring comes.

"You'd better leave early. Gang Duo has sent an invitation letter. The southern countries will hold a celebration in the spring. It's a good opportunity to make money."

"Then let's keep the plan and set off for the New Year..."

Out of idealism, Annan hopes that his decision to go to the south will become the content of the apocalypse forecast - this is always better than the bad news in the north.

Realizing that he would not have time to finish learning the spells before departure, Annan gave up working hard for a while, but he could still build models on the road.

After telling the dean and Lilith, Annan moved back to the city lord's mansion and resumed his usual life.

The Elf Mentor and the Envoy Group set off to the forest mountains before Annan was promoted to the elite, and they haven't come back yet... Fortunately, they haven't come back yet.

Annan then asked about some government affairs to make himself look very busy.

"How are the orcs doing?"

"Same as Martin, stable performance."

"Where are our finances?"

“Spend as much as you earn.”

"Didn't we have "Dream Princess"!"

“Have you forgotten how quickly we spend money?”

Annan couldn't help but miss the time in Xingyue Bay. They didn't make much money at that time. A few thousand gold coins were enough for them to spend several months...

Speaking of which, Annan remembered that he hadn't seen Lily and Shamao for several days.

"Where's Lily?"

…

Charles is one of the few poor people in Liberty City. He stayed at the mansion with the few remaining poor people.

They were always out, and begging was prohibited in Liberty City, so they would hang around taverns and single-family homes, asking patrons and wealthy people if they needed service.

If you ask them why they don't go to work, the answer is that they are too weak.

Relying on relief from Liberty City, they would not starve to death, but working in the ice and snow was simply impossible for them who had difficulty eating.

At this time, a turning point occurred.

They are like messengers of the gods, carrying small bags of wheat to the doorsteps of the poor with their sweet bell-like voices and elven steps.

The poor people who are trapped in the vicious cycle of "if you want to work, you have to make money first, but to make money, you have to work first" call those messengers cat messengers, and they also erect statues of cat gods for them to preach cat doctrines.

When Annan learned that the wild cats in Liberty City, led by Lily and Silly Cat, stole things from the city lord's mansion and distributed them to the poor...we can't say stealing, because the maid Abby was helping them, the poor people also made idols to worship Lily. At that time, he was as surprised as if he knew Martin had the talent of a mage.

Annan quietly followed them to the place where the "miracle" was shown. The cheerful Lily and the helpless Silly Cat came over, and the poor people greeted each other, and they were stunned. It turned out that it was Master Annan who distributed food to them.

"What's your idea?" Annan lowered his head and asked Lily.

In fact, this is Silly Cat's plan.

After discovering that Rose, the most evil god in the world, the Spider Queen, was hiding next to Annan, Shamao felt a sense of crisis.

There are both dangers and opportunities...

We are all saints and cannot exert much divine power. Even I am a cat and a spider. Why can't I, the cat and the midnight girl, defeat you, the spider queen?

He tried to preach secretly while avoiding the Spider Queen, but was caught by Annan.

"Did the cat do something wrong?"

Lily rubbed Annan carefully.

"It doesn't matter, you did a good job, I was negligent."

Annan picked up Lily and Shamao one by one, took them to find Ingrid, told her what they were doing, and asked the Ministry of Interior to give the cats a separate warehouse.

He has only one request for Lily and the others: to only help those in need.

"This is what cats are good at!"

Knowing what Lily was busy with, Annan began to prepare new New Year gifts.

When the entire Free City was filled with happiness and busyness, a piece of bad news came from their neighbor to the east, the Tatoon Empire.

The investigation team lost contact.

There is no need to observe anymore.

The countries have not yet made a decision, and the nobles in the north have already dragged their families and started running to the Middle-earth. When it comes to the public, the attitude is completely opposite. Mercenaries go around taking on missions to hunt demons and ratmen.

The war between Middle-earth and Chaos began among the people.

Annan told Mrs. Winter the news and asked her to decide whether to stay or go, but as soon as possible.

Annan thought her ancestor would go back, but she didn't expect her to smile and say she liked it here and would stay a little longer.

The more chaotic the north became, the more determined Annan was to go to the south to make money.

"Business is developed in the south, and wealth means everything there - as long as you have money, you can even let the elves step on your feet." said the only bard who has been to the south.

"I do not believe."

"Why don't you believe it? The moral character of elves comes from their self-identity. But how much pride can an elf who was raised by ratmen and instilled in stealing and selling his body have left?"

Annan was thoughtful.

Regarding the candidates for departure, Annan will first bring his eternal water element lemon.

Annan said that this was enough, and the city lord's palace unanimously opposed it.

"Women in the South are wild and outspoken. Boys like you will be swallowed even to the bones when they go there."

First of all, the blue dragon is not suitable, and she is sleeping.

Della is not suitable either. The principle is similar to that of the blue dragon. The south doesn't care much about alignment and race. Who can tell which of the two jinnar is righteous and which is evil? But the fewer labels there are on Annan, the more people are willing to do business.

Fast? never mind.

While everyone was still worried about choosing guards, the first batch of old people came to Liberty City through the portal.

Olmedo suddenly saw a familiar figure among the confused and excited crowd.

Klein was taken to the city lord's palace. After Annan and the others briefly reminisced with her, Olmedo suddenly asked: "Do you want to go south?"

"Why do you ask."

Olmedo introduced Annan's itinerary: "Experience is equally important to a knight."

"Do you want to believe me?"

After spending a year with Annan, Olmedo acquired some of his character:

"No one would doubt a knight who has spent a year fighting Chaos in the North."
