Three days later, Boom and Rikka left the hotel and walked away under the reluctant gaze of the boss. Although the fat sheep was good, they could not be snatched openly after all.
The two of them visited Newk City twice in the past few days. Although it is not as prosperous as Aogu City, it can not be said to be "a sparrow that is small but has all the internal organs."
And because of the loose laws and regulations of the Principality of Xisai, people who come here to do business can be seen everywhere, and even Boom saw many caravans under the banner of the Lion of the Royal City.
The reason why the Principality of Xisai has been strong and prosperous for thousands of years is inseparable from this custom. Because in the eyes of Xisai people, war and business are two different things, and the two will neither be confused nor make any judgments based on their status.
.
Scholars from the Principality of Moronil once said: Cisse is a place with some "ulterior motives". Under the seemingly beautiful appearance, there are countless deadly poisons hidden.
Because here, the strong will always be the most respected ones. As long as you submit to the Grand Duke of Cisse, you will surely be prosperous and wealthy forever.
However, the so-called "strong ones" also have certain standards. These people are either magicians who have reached a high level, or they are young and promising Dou Qi users, or even alien hybrids.
As for the people below, they are the same as ordinary poor people. If they violate the laws of the principality, they will be executed. Offending the noble class will definitely bring disaster.
Boom kept thinking about these news in his mind, while Rikka's hands on the side were already full of snacks. The two of them continued to move forward, and the crowd was still crowded.
There is no so-called slum in Newk City. Nobles are nobility, and everyone else gathers together. But where there are people, there are classes. Naturally, the closer to the city center, the nobler the people who live there.
There are only two city gates in Newk City. The west gate faces the royal city of Ogu City and is also the entrance and exit for other principalities and foreign caravans.
The East City Gate naturally leads to the High Court, the heart of the Principality of Xisai. It is also the connection point between the two. Therefore, it is extremely lively, or chaotic.
But the more chaotic the place, the more bugs and filth there are. Therefore, the East City Gate area has become a gathering place for all "outsiders". This is exactly what the city lord Christo meant, so that it can be controlled easily. p>
The direction Boom and Rikka are heading towards is naturally the East Gate area. The two plan to settle here because it is like the slums of Oko Castle.
"Brother, there are no wooden houses here. Should we build one ourselves, or pitch a tent on the Golden Halberd Plain?" Liuhua took a bite of the chicken leg and said with a playful smile.
"If you can't keep your mouth shut while eating, be careful not to choke to death." Boom replied softly while wiping the other person's mouth with the cuffs of his robe.
Half an hour later, after paying nearly a hundred gold coins, Boom finally got a real estate document from the Principality of Cisse.
As for the original owner, he left in a hurry, even taking only some personal belongings with him before leaving. From the eyes that occasionally looked back, it was not difficult to see that he had taken a big advantage.
"Brother, why do people feel that you have been cheated?" Rikka's innocence will only be shown to Boom. She is not a fool and can naturally see the meaning in the other person's eyes.
"It doesn't matter. Although we spent more money, at least we have a home now, right?" Boom opened the courtyard door and looked at everything inside.
"It's not like my brother earned it. My stinky brother will say that if you have the ability, you can make money yourself." Liuhua muttered and closed the courtyard door tightly with his backhand.
The cleaning work lasted from noon until late at night, and all the belongings of the original owner were thrown out by Rikka.
I saw fluorescent lights flickering in the room, brand new bedding and towels were taken out from the dimensional space, and familiar pots and pans had already been placed in the kitchen.
A new life has officially begun. Although the place has been changed, and even though there are no longer rows of wooden houses opposite the courtyard gate, Rikka's habits have never changed, and she still relies on Boom every night to fall asleep.
But two days later, the two people's originally high emotions fell to the bottom. The reason was not that they were hunted down again, but because of Newk City's weird routine.
As a strategic fortress, the biggest difference in Newk City comes not from its geographical location, but from its neurotic "regular life."
In the square in the center of the city, stands a huge copper bell more than ten meters high. It rings three times every morning, noon and evening, and the sound not only spreads to every corner, but is also extremely clear.
The morning light woke up Newk City and heralded the beginning of a new day. Although Boom was not used to getting up early, he still dressed up and took out the black wood staff from the storage bag.
The fluorescence of "Elemental Summoning" merged into the morning light. Rikka walked sleepily to the kitchen and covered the pan with slices of bacon.
Half an hour later, Boom continued to practice after breakfast. Rikka also yawned, pushed open the courtyard door, and set off to the market area to purchase fresh ingredients.
At noon, Rikka was spread out on a wooden chair on the roadside, eating black pepper-flavored meat soup while passively listening to the scheduled bell.
As for Boom, he also stopped practicing at the right time, shook his head with a wry smile, his eyes were full of helplessness, but there was nothing he could do.
The first ray of moonlight shone on the earth, and the bell rang again. Rikka, who was cooking in the kitchen, his face darkened. He saw that the pepper bottle originally standing on the window frame was knocked into the pot, and the beef stew that was about to be completed naturally also
Scrapped instantly.
A scream broke out from the kitchen, but was immediately drowned out by the sound of the bell. Boom sighed, thinking that this was the fifth time in three days that the other party had collapsed.
After the meal, Rikka puffed her cheeks and entered the dimensional space. In her words, instead of listening to these bells, it would be better to fish by the pool.
Seeing this, Boom didn't stop him. The three bells ringing every day were over, and he could rest assured to practice his magic power. The black wooden staff floated in the air, and the four-color magic light strips danced slowly.
As time passed, Boom wanted to activate the magic to carve the magic circle, but with a huge bell, the black wooden staff fell to the ground.
This is the so-called "temporary drill" in New York City. It wakes everyone up from their sleep from time to time, making people feel resentful, but they dare not resist.
Boom opened his eyes, then stood up and walked to the window. Rikka, who didn't know when she would return to the present world, stayed by her side and reached out to hand Boom a snack.
"This is not suitable for us, at least not suitable for my brother to practice magic." Rikka looked at the dim lights in the distance and said softly.
"There's nothing inappropriate. If others can live here, we can too." Boom took a bite of the snack and replied with a smile.
"Then what are you going to do, brother? Why don't you go to Jinji Ping Uehara to practice during the day? At least no one will disturb you there." Rikka said again.
"The most important thing right now is not our living environment, but our identity." In Boom's heart, he is still a little worried about the recurrence of the black jail incident.
"The most people in Newk City are not poor people, but mercenaries. Otherwise..." Rikka licked her fingers and said her thoughts casually.
