Chapter 630
A young commoner led a veiled woman dressed in a purple cheongsam out of Loen town. They did not follow the numerous official roads of the caravan. Instead, they went straight to the dense forest in the nearby wilderness, they shuttled through the dense forest.
Wild Wolves, snakes, pigs, and other ferocious beasts roamed the dense forest in the wilderness. The commoner did not dare to approach. However, there was a transportation path in the dense forest. This was a shortcut that the caravan had opened up in a hurry. When the caravan passed by this place.., they would often hire retired soldiers or adventurers who had explored the radiation zone as guards. After all, there were bandits and bandits in the dense forest, there were even terrifying dark cultists who were doing secret evil experiments here.
Dudian took Aisha along the caravan path.
Rustle!
A few bandits dressed in green grass suddenly jumped out of the bushes and blocked Dudian’s way.
“Haha, Old Boss, we met a fat sheep the first time we went out!”
“Stammering, don’t talk so much.”
“HMPH, you two dare to come here. You are courting death. Kid, Hurry up and…”
Before the bandits could finish their opening lines, Dudian’s running figure suddenly sped up. He waved his wrist and the bell tinkled.
Seeing him rushing toward them like a hurricane, the bandits were shocked and stunned.
With a whoosh, Dudian and Aisha jumped at the same time and flew over the heads of the bandits. They jumped to a height of more than ten meters and landed behind the bandits. They continued to run without looking back.
The bandits looked back and saw that Dudian and Aisha had run far away.
“Boss… boss…”
“Have you ever seen a person who can jump to the top of the tree?”
“Boss, I, I want to go back to be a good person…”
Dudian went along the dense forest. He met a hungry tiger along the way. After more than ten minutes he left the dense forest and came to a village, he went straight through the suburbs of the village and went to the next supervisor’s residence.
Padre Commercial Street was one of the four economic centers of the commercial district. There were large-scale trade markets and various entertainment industries, it was undoubtedly the largest vero casino in Padre Commercial Street.
There was a square outside the Vero Casino. The main purpose of this square was not to hold a blessing festival for the Holy See, nor to set up sculptures to worship the ancestors and gods, instead, it was for the wealthy nobles who came to the Vero Casino to park their carriages. The carriages in the square were filled up all year round. One could see all kinds of carriages and the badges and flags of various noble families here.
At this moment, in a luxurious box on the top floor of the Vero Casino, seven or eight blonde nobles were sitting around the Round Table Casino. This was a top-class noble box, and the minimum amount of chips on the casino was.., it was equivalent to the savings of an ordinary civilian family for fifty years.
The side of the gambling table was filled with fruit juice, champagne, delicacies, and so on. The service was very considerate.
Arkony turned the chips in his hand, looked at them for a while, and then sighed lightly. He got up and left the table. He patted the knight attendant behind him on the shoulder and said, “Come and play for me. I’ll change my luck.”
The knight said respectfully, “Yes.”It was not the first time he had encountered such a situation. Usually, when Arkony lost a lot, he would ask him to play for him.
Arkony did not watch the gambling at the side. Instead, he turned around and went to the rest area of the box. From here, he could see the scenery of more than half of the block outside the Vero Casino. The pedestrians on the bustling streets were in a hurry, in the distance, there were countless luxurious carriages parked in the square. Such a beautiful scenery could only be seen in the bustling city even in the inner wall area. However, living in the bustling city of the inner wall area was too expensive, even an aristocrat like him, who had a good position and salary, would feel distressed.
He picked up the red wine beside him and tasted it gently. Although he had lost a lot today, it did not affect his mood at all. Ever since he came to the outer wall area, his mood had been very good. In his impression, this area used to be barren and backward, the dirty area was far cleaner and richer than he had imagined. It gave him a big surprise.
He even felt that there was nothing bad about living here in his old age. It was better to be treated as a “Lord”by a group of pariahs than to be looked down upon as a “Villain”by a group of real nobles.
“Lord, this is a truffle from the snow mountain. It is very expensive and not available in the inner wall. You can try it.”Another knight attendant beside him pointed at a plate of food on the table and recommended it to arkony.
Arkony took a glance at it, picked up the spoon and gently scooped some. He felt that the taste was soft and sweet. It was extremely refreshing and delicious. He could not help but praise, “These outsiders know how to enjoy delicacies better than us.”
The knight smiled and said, “This is a delicacy that only the nobles of the outer wall are qualified to enjoy. After all, these nobles have learned our etiquette and teachings. They still know how to enjoy some of it.”
Hearing that, Arkony glanced at him and said, “Everything here is good, but there is one thing that makes me feel very dazzling. Do you know what it is?”
The knight immediately lowered his head and said, “I dare not make wild guesses.”
“It’s them.”Arkony’s tone was clearly directed at the people around the gambling table on the other side of the private room. He said coldly, “Seeing these lowlifes have blond hair like mine makes me feel disgusted. Do you know?”
The attendant Knight reacted and immediately knew that he had misspoken earlier. He hurriedly said, “I know.”
“Pariahs will always be pariahs. Even if they are mixed-race pariahs, they still have the lowly blood of pariahs in their bones.”Arkony said coldly, “This is something that can not be changed. Just like the barbarians outside the border. Even if they forcefully abduct civilians to give birth to their children, they will still give birth to an uneducated bastard.”
The attendant Knight broke out in a cold sweat. He lowered his head and said, “You’re right, sir.”
Arkony glanced at a golden-haired young man who turned to look at him from the other side of the gambling table and said, “What are you looking at?”
The golden-haired young man saw that Arkony’s imposing manner was extraordinary, so he hurriedly said, “Nothing. I seem to have misheard.”After saying that, he turned around and continued to immerse himself in the gambling table. He no longer cared about those things that had nothing to do with him.
After finishing the truffles, Arkony glanced outside. Seeing that it was getting late, he said, “The Camilla clan invited us for lunch. Prepare to leave.”
“Yes.”The attendant knight respectfully replied. Then, he came to the side of the gambling platform and called for the attendant knight who had replaced Arkony to prepare to leave.
When a fat middle-aged man sitting in the front seat of the gambling platform saw Arkony leaving.., he quickly stood up and said, “Mr. Arkony, you’re going back so early? Why Don’t you play a little longer? If you don’t have enough money, I have it here. I’ll lend it to you.”
Arkony said indifferently, “No need. I have an invitation for lunch. I’m going.”
The middle-aged man came to a realization and said with a smile, “Then I won’t keep you. Take care. Come back next time.”As he said that, he reached out and held his palm, sending him off to the door.
“You continue to play.”Arkony let go of his hand and left with two attendants and knights. When the door of the private room was closed, he took out the handkerchief in his arms, wiped his fingers, and wiped them clean one by one, he crumpled the handkerchief into a ball and threw it into the trash can in the corridor.
Soon, the three of them left the Vero Casino and came to the carriage in the square.
Two servants and knights escorted him to the carriage. As soon as Akoni entered the carriage, his pupils constricted. He saw two figures sitting silently in the spacious carriage. One was a man and the other was a woman. They were as silent as two ghosts.
He instantly realized something. Just as he was about to attack, a ray of cold light suddenly struck him. It was as fast as silver lightning. It expanded rapidly in his pupils and then disappeared. Immediately after, a sharp pain as if it had been split open came from his forehead.
