Chapter 461
Entering the Ice King City without any hindrance, no soldier dared to come forward to check Su Hao's ID, including Jack.
After walking for a long time in the inner city, Su Hao looked around, with a surprised expression in his eyes.
It was almost a complete ancient city structure, with markets, houses, and children playing, but he didn't see any private schools or schools for teaching and educating people.
The more Su Hao observed, the more he could see the ruler's thoughts through various layouts.
It seemed that he only wanted absolute rule and didn't need disobedient people.
Su Hao turned his head to look at Jack, and he became more and more skilled in acting out the contemptuous expression that a beast master should have. He thought he had played out 80% of the contempt and arrogance of a beast master.
Su Hao asked calmly, "What are you going to do next? Are you going to find Priest Yana to report the loss of the Radiant Petals?"
Jack smiled bitterly and said to the Beast Master, who was so kind to them, "This is the only way for the lowly people. I just hope Priest Yana can give me a pension for the loss of my brothers. After all, their families are not well-off."
Su Hao frowned slightly, but Jack didn't see it under the cover of the velvet hat. He continued to talk to himself, "The children of the Xiong family will soon be eight years old this year. If they don't collect 10,000 Eris by then, they will be exiled from the royal city. Then they will fall into the small tribes outside who are hungry and full."
Su Hao knew what Eris Jack meant. It was a currency in the Ice King City.
And Jack and his team of more than a dozen big men traveled a long distance to the harsh and cold land for a mission that took almost half a month. The total reward was... one thousand Eris.
This is already an extremely generous reward from the priest Yana... The normal day's salary in the Ice King City is... 5 Eris.
Moreover, they need to work at least twelve hours a day, and only have one day off every weekend.
In order to make money, many people are often willing to work on their own initiative on weekends, just to save enough money for their children to stay in the Ice King City.
And they try their best to be frugal every day, and the expenses that cannot be avoided also cost two to three Eris.
It's just like hell...
It takes many years of work to keep their children in the Ice King City and avoid the pain of separation.
He walked in the city for a while, and fortunately he didn't meet the real beast master.
The identity of the beast master is only possessed by a small number of people in the Ice King City. A small number means that they know each other well. If a stranger like Su Hao meets, his identity will probably be exposed.
Soon, under the guidance of Jack, who did not dare to ask Su Hao why he followed him, the two came to an old house that was larger than the houses of ordinary people, but already very simple.
Jack walked to the door of the old house. The iron ring used to knock on the door was covered with a thick layer of dust. It can be seen that no one has visited here for a while.
Jack carefully knocked on the door 2.5 times with the iron ring. This was the secret code required by Yana. If the secret code was wrong, Yana would neither see him nor pay him.
Jack was very worried about whether he could get a meager pension for the dead brothers.
Soon, with the creaking sound of the old door being pushed open, a beautiful voice like an oriole sounded.
"Jack, you are finally back!"
Su Hao could hear that the woman's voice was a little anxious, and there was a faint sense of joy that seemed to be relieved.
Just like the image in the Flower of Time, the woman was wearing a light green translucent veil that reached her thighs, and her beautiful face was covered with a translucent black veil with a gold edge. She was wearing a green slim dress, and a gold ring on her wrist and ankle.
Since she entrusted the caravan mission to Jack, Yana has been waiting at home anxiously.
The condition of the God of Fertility is getting worse, and their tribe has been unable to successfully remake the God's Reins due to the obstruction of the Ice King.
Finally, she found the Jack caravan that had not received much attention through some connections. She could not eat or sleep well in the more than half a month waiting for their return.
Now, Jack's return has finally come, but... What is the situation of this beast user who is accompanied by a beast wearing a restraint device! ! ? ?
Yana's heart was about to rise to her throat. The thought that her plan had been exposed flashed through her mind. She also felt a little sad that she felt guilty for her parents who had conveyed their long-cherished wish to her and had been taken to the execution ground and beheaded.
AIf people knew, then it means that all the beast masters, even the Ice King, knew.
In such a desperate situation, Yana reaffirmed her belief in her heart... She couldn't be caught yet!
Yana's eyes became sharper, and she looked at Jack with a disappointed expression. It seemed that Jack had told the secret, and she was planning to mention the reward again.
"Ma-la!" Yana raised her voice and shouted into the house.
The next moment, a dark gray phantom rushed out from the inner room. The magical thing was that it was not wearing any restraints.
Ma-la's figure was like the wind, and its claws were surrounded by dark purple energy, and it attacked Su Hao's throat!
Su Hao was also confused by Yana's sudden hostility, but he didn't react. The Lucario beside him directly carried the extremely heavy training device that suppressed half of its speed and strength and rushed forward.
Instantly, Lucario's right fist fell with starlight, and his fists coated with a layer of metallic luster took the attack, and then he punched with his left fist, and Mara screamed in pain and was knocked several meters away.
Su Hao stopped the wave missile in his hand from spinning slowly, and was ready to move instantly to kill Mara. Lucario looked at Yana who pursed her lips and looked determined not to surrender, and said helplessly: "I haven't said anything yet, why did you attack me directly?"
Yana gritted her teeth, and was ready to never tell the truth that the God of Plenty was very weak now, no matter how cruelly she was treated: "No matter what you do to me, I won't say a word to you traitors!"
Su Hao's mouth twitched slightly, and he instantly understood why Yana attacked him.
It feels like he thought he was an accomplice of the monster master in the Ice King City.
Su Hao signaled Lucario with his eyes, and Lucario understood and took off the weight training device.
Under the horrified expression of Marula, who looked like I just fought this monster, and accompanied by the crisp sound of the alloy falling to the ground, Su Hao smiled and said, "Is there a possibility that I am the same as you?"
