The morning sun rises from under the blue sea level, and the warm sea breeze coming from the depths of the Twin Seas gently blows through the bustling crowds on the King's Harbor Pier.
On the edge of a large wooden bridge covered with salt and frost, Xue Hua, Kane and the little girl Aman were preparing to board the large wooden cargo ship in front of them - Amazon Storm Queen Sarah Xiange gave them a treat last night.
A letter inviting them to visit the triennial professional promotion ceremony of the Amazon tribe in the Haworth Islands.
The two girls that Xue Hua thought about day and night were also included in this promotion ceremony.
After the ceremony is successfully held, Anne and Funya will become two real Amazon professionals.
After officially becoming professionals, the two girls can continue to accompany Xue Hua on his new journey.
This made Xue Hua feel very happy. His lonely adventure was finally coming to an end.
"Xue, are you sure you won't go meet those representatives of the Demon Fortress family again?"
Just when he was looking forward to the moment of reunion with the two girls, Kane walked up to him and asked him with a worried look on his face.
"Why are you meeting them? I clearly rejected their proposal last time."
Xue Hua turned around and looked at Kane with a puzzled expression.
"Um...well, since this is your decision..."
Kane shook his head and said helplessly.
"Don't worry, old man. I'm used to living a free life, and I don't want to add a pair of shackles to my body.
And there are people from the parliament watching, I believe they can’t do anything to me.”
Xue Hua smiled reassuringly at Kane and said.
A few days ago, after learning that Xue Hua had finally returned, the family lobbyists in the Demon Fortress began to visit him in an endless stream.
These people were really very patient and actually waited for two whole months in Port King.
And the recruitment conditions they proposed are indeed very attractive. One of the families even promised that as long as Xue Hua joins them, he will immediately obtain at least a family deacon-level status, and will also give him a complete set of gifts in the name of the family.
"Tagio's Incarnation (Clone)" series of sets.
It has to be said that this recruitment condition is really very tempting, and any powerful necromancer, even a legendary level one, would probably agree immediately.
It is a pity that after Xue Hua experienced his second complete evolution and upgrade, the demand for professional equipment in this world has already dropped to a very low level.
With his psychic exoskeleton skin and bone wings, any equipment can now only play a very limited role in icing on the cake for him.
Unless it's a complete suit, it's really unlikely that ordinary equipment will impress him.
In addition, among the representatives of these families is the Dolawi family - the head of the Dolawi family who committed traitorous and stupid things in the Rogge camp, which further made Xue Hua's first impression of them.
Reduced.
As the saying goes, "Love a house and a bird", the converse of this sentence is actually the same.
"Hate the house and the bird".
After rejecting all the solicitations from all the families, Kane was a little worried that Xue Hua's actions would lead to joint revenge from these families.
Although the influence of the top families in the Demonic Fortress on the Parliament had been eliminated by the then Speaker more than a hundred years ago, Kane was afraid that these guys "wouldn't help you or ruin your business" and would use them to be in the group.
Demon Fortress' advantage to interfere with Xue Hua.
So he proposed to Xue Hua that he simply divide some of the pile of property that was used to ask him to intervene in the Skeleton King incident at King's Port and donate it to the Kurast reconstruction project in his own name, in order to obtain
Political patronage of high-level parliamentarians.
Xue Hua agreed after careful consideration.
Anyway, he is about to go to the second world. Over there, the purchasing power of gold coins is much smaller than that of military exploits. Hundreds of thousands of gold coins may not be worth thousands of military exploits, so gold coins are no longer as valuable to him as before.
It's important.
In order to successfully allow Xue Hua to help King's Harbor overcome this crisis, the Joshua family emptied almost half of the kingdom's treasury as a gift to him. Now two-thirds of this money has been donated to the treasury.
Rust Seaport is used for reconstruction work. Such a huge capital injection will naturally speed up the reconstruction of the seaport.
Such a large gift obviously made the parliament very satisfied. They immediately told Xue Hua that they would not pay attention to any political attacks on Xue Hua from the big families in the fortress. After Xue Hua arrived in the second world, any of his remarks to the parliament would be ignored.
All requests will be put on the fast track for rapid resolution.
After taking care of the parliament, Xue Hua no longer had any worries about those lobbyists. He closed the door and thanked all guests the next day and went to hide in Mr. Kane's house.
"You little guy... okay, since the council has accepted your gift, even for the sake of an old man like me, I won't be embarrassed to do nothing. If you don't see me, you will see me. Let's get on the boat!"
Kane shook his head and laughed. As he spoke, he took the little girl Aman's hand and boarded the boat.
Xue Hua saw the little Loli in a linen robe holding a large tome that was almost half her height, walking back towards the ship with three steps, and couldn't help but shake her head and laugh.
After being introduced to Kane by Xue Hua, the old man unexpectedly discovered that this little girl's spellcasting talent was quite excellent, so he simply accepted her as an apprentice. He planned to keep her by his side to teach her for a period of time before sending her directly to Lugao.
Because of going.
The Horadric Cube has been brought back to the Desert Pearl by Farah, and the old mage Tarasha is still looking for his heir.
I believe that Aman’s talent will not let this old goblin down.
After the Skeleton King incident in King's Port, the plantations on the Xiangguo Plain were almost completely destroyed. Moreover, due to the death power of the Skeleton King, the originally fertile land was now completely barren, and the Xiangguo Plantation was also completely barren.
It is impossible to rebuild at all.
So, taking this opportunity, King Wood VI began to carry out drastic domestic system reforms.
This time, because there was no obstruction from the Margery family, and the economic lifeline of the kingdom had indeed ceased to exist, the Joshua family had no choice but to fully support the king's reforms.
The inauguration ceremony for professionals in King's Harbor will resume this summer. The first, second and third ceremonies are completely free and anyone who meets the age requirements can sign up to participate.
In addition, King's Port's City Guard Corps and Shining Shield Legion will openly recruit soldiers from all King's Port residents after the inauguration ceremony. All King's Port residents who are interested in joining the army can go to the military camps of the two legions to receive selection and training.
.
The docks in the port area have also received renewed attention, and a large-scale expansion and renovation operation is about to begin.
Of course, this series of actions will naturally touch the interests of some stubborn aristocratic forces, and short-term political turmoil is inevitable.
No matter what, Kingsport is transforming from a commercial empire purely controlled by merchants to a semi-commercial and semi-military country. Whether this transformation is good or bad can only be judged by future generations for the time being.
Just when King's Harbor was plunged into widespread civil turmoil, Xue Hua had already boarded a cargo ship bound for the Haworth Islands, officially announcing the end of his journey to the west. (To be continued)
