——If the arrival of mermaids and dragons is enough to make people numb, then the appearance of unicorns makes people start to doubt life uncontrollably.
…
After comforting Egbert last night, Sully went back to his room and had a nightmare-filled sleep. After waking up early in the morning and washing up, Sully numbly stuffed breakfast into his mouth in a trance.
Originally, Sully planned to give himself some time to relieve the mental pressure brought by the nightmare, but he brought up a new topic at the breakfast table.
"I want to go back to Licheng." Hu put down his chopsticks and said calmly to Suli, who was sitting opposite him and had a dazed look because he didn't sleep well.
He didn't give Sully much chance to react and just spoke his mind directly.
"Maybe for ordinary kids of our age, there is still some time for us to be confused and think about our future development path, but for me, I can't think that I can continue to do that."
"Compared to the current situation, I even feel that I no longer have the qualifications to be confused."
There was neither the time nor the capital to support him in continuing his confusion.
What he said sounded very conscious.
Just like the idea that Euphia and Caster came up with yesterday, before producing actual results, they did not intend to tell Sully in all aspects what they wanted to do.
"I don't plan to waste my time being confused and trying to come up with a better way to deal with it."
Don't look Sully in the eyes.
Not many people slept well last night, but those who could cultivate the elements were all normal, with no noticeable changes from before, except Suli.
The dark circles under his eyes were obviously excessive.
To be honest, if Sully hadn't been right in front of them, no one would have known that staying up late could bring such big changes to a person.
Degenerate, weak, lazy.
"I want to go back to Licheng and do something that only I can do." He clenched his fists.
As he spoke, he thought of excuses and reasons.
In the end, he could only say incoherently: "After all, I am the eldest prince of Ami Kebi. Even if I don't have enough conditions to inherit now, at least I can use this identity to build some power of my own."
The more he talked, the smoother it got. He thought he was really good at making excuses: "I want to set up a chamber of commerce, or an auction house."
"I plan to cooperate with Mr. Lan Zhe. The top-grade medicinal herbs he found in the Monster Forest should be able to bring in a lot of wealth once they are sold through my channels."
"Then, I want to make enough money." Suli didn't know what this excuse looked like. He could only watch the boy rub his eyes vigorously because of sleepiness, and then smiled and said to him, "That's good."
"You're young enough to understand that money is the most important thing. You have a bright future." At this moment, Sully had no idea about other worlds. The concepts of humans, elements, dragons, etc. were enough to give him a headache.
He is now simply thinking from a personal perspective. As a young partner, he has a life goal of making a lot of money - this idea is a good thing.
Although I have no idea how I came up with this idea.
But considering the reality, it is still promising to run a business system as a royal family member.
As for the development direction of Amiqbe, since it already had a structure of nobles and commoners, it was not a big problem for it to shift from the existing royal system to the capital system.
Even though the world before the time travel has proven that countries with capital operation systems will bring great trouble to future generations, the most obvious difference between this world and future generations is that everyone can control power.
It is not difficult to overthrow the rule of certain exploiters. As long as the spark left now can give people the will to resist, it will be a good thing to use their hands to create a capital operation structure for this country.
There is just one thing...
From a personal perspective, Suli thought about the future that might very well happen to the boy.
That is, when people grow up and look back on their past goals, they will find that the current situation is usually very different from their past goals.
Can't you accept that there is a clear difference between what you want and what you ultimately achieve?
Sully never thought that the excuse was just a reason to prevent himself from being disappointed after feeling expectations.
After going through all the possible developments in his mind, Sully turned to ask, "Are you really ready to move toward your current goal?"
Suli is referring to targets that are not money-oriented.
Those who have always believed that Suli has a very strong ability to read people's hearts, even to the point of being consistent with prophecy, thought that Suli had seen through his true thoughts.
He clenched his fists a little shyly and said, "Yes, I am ready."
Whether it is competing with other heirs for that position, or going deep into the countercurrent of the royal family.
He was ready for everything.
It's all for Sully!
A young man who has never had anyone to rely on but has always helped everyone, he should have some assets to support himself, right?
Those who have the right of inheritance would not think this way, and this idea would definitely not be changed by external factors.
After all, if it weren't for Sully, he might have died at Willard's hands in the beginning.
It was obvious what would happen next. His mother, the queen, whom he had not seen for a long time, would inevitably have trouble with Willard.
The longer I stay with Sully, the more I like to look at things from different perspectives like him.
If he had died at Willard's hands, the queen would have taken revenge on Willard and at the same time cut off all the forces behind Willard that might have supported him.
In other words, there is a great possibility that the Queen will face the Chief Justice directly after her death.
Once that happens, the end result will be tragedy.
Every time I thought about that possibility, I would feel scared, but at the same time, I would be more and more grateful to have met Sully.
Otherwise, he would not even have the ability to anticipate that possibility, and would simply die in ignorance.
Owning a future and having a choice about the future, all of this is brought by Sully.
It is precisely because of this unwavering idea that when "Sully has seen through what he wants to do", he can abandon shame and say unwaveringly: "No matter what happens in the future, I will achieve my goals."
Achieve the goal of having an entire country support Suli!
He had already figured out what to do yesterday.
And Suli...
...Is this child so obsessed with making money?
The conclusion was completely different from what he was saying, and the words were not as serious as a vow. Suli could only put down his bowl and chopsticks, sit up straight, and say to him in the same serious and solemn manner: "I understand."
"But I also want to say something that may sound like preaching to you."
Most people who have been office workers understand that having deep conversations with people you don’t know well is a comfortable social distance.
Suli opened his eyes, which were a little hazy due to sleepiness. The flashing light in his green eyes was like the first ray of sunshine shining on the lake after a heavy rain.
Suli told him: "It is human nature to strive for progress. If one day you fall due to reality, please do not hate yourself."
It's easy to get lost in the world of money.
Suli could not give more detailed advice, nor did he think it was necessary for him to interfere with the future of the queen at this time. Therefore, his farewell words were just these useless words.
Just as he was feeling ashamed that he couldn't say something more effective, he suddenly stood up, clenched his fists, and his ice-blue eyes flashed with a determined light. He said, "Yes!"
"I will definitely accomplish my goal, and I will never let you fall into the abyss!"
Didn't I suddenly feel that the excuse I made up casually might actually come true?
But what made him happiest was actually that Sully's subtitles told him that even if he failed or could not succeed, he did not have to feel regret or self-blame.
Not happy about Suli's worries.
After all, he knew that his enemies ahead were Ophelia, who was extremely good at conspiracy and scheming, and Willard, the Chief Justice, standing behind him.
Suli will probably never know what the eldest prince is thinking at this moment.
He could only start asking when he planned to leave.
He said: "This afternoon."
Suli said in surprise: "Are you in such a hurry?"
"Because Sister Ophelia... No, because His Royal Highness sent a knight to say that she also plans to leave this afternoon."
I don't think that Ophelia's trip to the city of mercenaries has helped the latter determine her future development goals.
Ophelia already has a strong desire and idea for that position, and it is not easy to defeat her and get to that position under more determined circumstances.
Time is money. Now that you have chosen your future, there is no need to hesitate before embarking on that path.
Suli didn't say anything else after that. He just took out the pocket money that Lan Zhe had given him and stuffed it into Shu's hand.
Facing the boy's puzzled look, Suli said, "This is my initial investment."
The young man wanted to go to the capital to develop his economy, so the only thing Suli could do was to provide him with some initial capital.
Didn't I suddenly realize it after he finished speaking?
Did Sully know that he needed to make a lot of connections before he could get that position?
Why did he choose to accept the pocket money given by Suli and clench his fists, thinking to himself that he would not let Suli down?
The two people, who were not on the same channel throughout the whole process, communicated very harmoniously and naturally.
People around Sully have not yet discovered that Sully has the habit of actively abandoning his brain when it is not necessary.
And the person involved never considered this problem as a problem. Suli just took it for granted that brain cells are not infinite and must have some time to respond.
I have also made up my mind to support Suli in a very, very short time.
And he also has to tell his mother, the queen, about his growth process.
Since it is unknown how long the king can live, as long as he dies, the queen will become the most precious person in Amicbee's name in a short period of time.
He didn't need his mother to know how much influence Sully had on him, and who had caused him to want to fight for that position.
Same as Egbert.
I also really want to tell everyone in this world what Sully has done for this world.
Maybe Sully himself doesn't care, maybe Sully himself doesn't care, but the people around Sully have always wanted him to get the honor he deserves.
Being surrounded by glory should be Suli's normal state.
Instead of one person quietly giving for an entire race without anyone knowing.
…
As he said, he left that afternoon. Not long after he left, Sardina changed again.
This time it's more than just an earthquake.
Instead, the crisis directly connected the river that was created by Leia and Elvi with the moat of the city of Sardina.
In other words, a new humanoid monster has appeared.
When Sully learned the news, he couldn't help but think of Ophelia who ran away that afternoon.
Suli inexplicably felt that when the eldest princess said before that he knew that many high-level monsters would come here, she had already anticipated the current situation.
But if you think about it carefully, you will know that it is impossible.
What the princess knows may not be as much as what the ordinary people in Sadina City know.
How could they possibly know that the new monster would be a beastman——
Suli stood on the city wall of Sadina, which was only completed later, and looked with a heavy expression at the original area of hills and small forests, which had all turned into a large river.
The original city of Sardina was a city built around the Mercenary Guild in the central area. Before being surrounded by Ophelia's troops, the city did not even have obvious wall buildings.
As for after the siege, although city walls appeared and even a moat was built outside the walls, in essence the river was just a tool to provide daily water for the residents in the city.
Rather than the literal meaning of "protecting the city".
But it's different now.
The newcomers acted like natural disasters, and when they were outnumbered two at a time, they were not at a disadvantage, and they turned the false moat into a real moat.
Suli held the edge of the wall with both hands. He had a headache.
I even couldn't help but wonder, if there really are monsters in the monster society that want to exterminate humans, then that group is most likely dominated by the new type of monsters in sight.
Otherwise, it is impossible to explain how a war that originally had no involvement with human survival areas could suddenly become linked to human survival areas.
The results were also impressive.
Elvi was hit so hard that several of his ribs were broken, and Leia lost a lot of scales. When she turned into a human form, her entire legs were covered in blood.
As for the new guy... I can only say that he is ridiculously strong.
In this case, he just broke the horns on his head.
No actual flesh/any visible injuries on the body.
In other words, the horns on the head of the newly emerged humanoid monster are not even as strong as his physical body.
During the fight, Elvi retreated a little, reluctantly letting Leia take the lead, while he flew in front of Sully and tried to bandage himself.
Suli talked for a while, because he knew that a new monster had appeared, and then put on the hat on his head. Then he asked: "Can you introduce it to me?"
Sully actually wanted to stab Elvy with a fake smile and say something very sarcastic: "Would you like to introduce me to you?"
But he doesn't have the capital.
Suli, who was basically speechless but was confused, could only ask politely and humblely after considering it for a moment.
Elvi chose to introduce the identity of the new monster in one breath.
"Bartholom Christian, the original unicorn, is the strongest person under the throne of the beast king. He possesses the element of light, but is not good at elemental warfare. His training in strength has always been to put all the elements into strengthening his body. He can pierce the original body of the dragon with the horn on his head with only the strength of his body."
Elvy described it in such detail that Sully wished he had created a file on Barcelona Christian in his mind and stripped him clean on the spot to determine his intentions.
Leia has proven that the Beastmen attacked the Watermen.
The King of the Feathered Tribe represented by Elvi had never had direct communication with Leia. Judging from the way Elvi deliberately misled Leia, the dragon probably also believed that there was a possibility of an alliance.
But because Elvi was not the decision maker, the only thing the dragon could do after knowing Leia's thoughts was to use his control power to try to gain more benefits from Leia.
But before the two sides could even try to cooperate with each other, the beastmen had already appeared...
Moreover, he didn't give me any chance to communicate, but just went straight to the point of taking on two people at once.
What does this mean?
Elvi's mind was in a mess.
Barsalom's arrival, without being explained by himself, has too many possibilities.
What Elvy needed was for Sully to eliminate those low possibilities directly and determine the real purpose of his visit in the shortest time possible.
The dragon thought so and expressed his expectations for Suli.
But Suli just wanted to point at her nose and say: "Speculating based on the current information does not mean that I can judge his goal out of thin air! If he can really do it, it is not speculation, it is a true prophecy."
"But even I can imagine that the beasts' attack on the water tribe will change." Elvi said, and in the blink of an eye he rushed towards the unicorn with a broken horn.
Leia, who had been suppressed and beaten before, was obviously relieved during this process.
If ranked by strength, Barsalom would undoubtedly be number one among the three humanoid monsters.
Until now, no monster has been able to figure out how Barsalom could push his strength to such an extreme level.
Leia formed a high-density elemental ball with super-concentrated water elements. Under normal circumstances, Elvi, who had no way to avoid it, had to be prepared for the possibility of being seriously injured before he could defend himself with all his strength.
But Leia's move was torn apart by the humanoid unicorn with its bare hands in front of Barsalom...
If you look closely, you can find that Bartholomew's hands also have various small wounds, but those wounds have recovered in the blink of an eye, leaving only a few pink marks.
Leia can't beat her in a one-on-one fight.
"I would rather fight the entire dragon clan alone than fight against this mad dog." Even if she can't win, she can run away, but when facing Bartholomu, Leia can neither run nor win.
He could only temporarily avoid the sharp attack. After making sure that Elvi was still able to fight after being bandaged, he retreated a little and angrily cursed with an ugly face: "Damn Mustang!"
Suli then watched in amazement as Leia transformed the water element into ice element, freezing the wound that was unable to stop bleeding.
Then, the mermaid rushed towards the newcomer again.
Suli wondered: "Can I switch between water and ice elements freely?"
"Roy can't do that," said Egbert.
After learning that a third humanoid monster had appeared, everyone in the small building who could move took action.
When Sully arrived at the city wall, there were only Egbert and Cyril around him, and a crow nesting above his head.
After hearing Egbert's reply, Suli said, "Leia said that he would rather face the entire race of dragons than Barthalom. Does that mean that the latter restrains him?"
"If so...what's the reason?"
"There is no obvious restraining effect between water and light." Egbert explained that in fact, apart from water and fire, which are naturally incompatible elements, other elements do not have the ability to restrain each other.
"As for the reason, I think it might be because the light elemental beastman used a large amount of elements to strengthen his body, which gave him extremely strong control over the elements inside his body. As a result, Leia was unable to control the elements remotely, but fortunately it had an effect on Barthalom's body."
"There is also water element in the blood. Of course, this is just my guess." Egbert watched this inhuman battle carefully.
He now has many new insights into the growth of his strength.
"Human water elementalists cannot affect other people's blood from a distance. But if they really reach the level of rules and completely transform the control of water elements into the control of water, then affecting other people's blood should be a very simple operation."
This made Sully's heart move, and an idea flashed in his mind. But the things that filled his mind at that moment could not really connect with the current situation in a short time, so he could only urge Egbert to continue.
"Tell us everything you see."
Sully was unusually serious, and he suddenly felt that he had figured out the reason for this battle.
It's just not accurate enough yet.
Egbert didn't know what Sully was thinking, but he continued to cooperate with him: "Because Barthalom has extremely strong control over his body, he may have achieved the level of being able to control his own blood. He can't be affected by Leia from the inside, and Leia can't easily break through his defense from the outside, so Leia is so... distressed."
Egbert wanted to say he was jumping up and down.
Leia and Elvi teamed up to deal with the newly appeared monster. It didn't look like a two-on-one fight at all, but rather a dragon fighting a unicorn head-on.
Not only was the help provided by the mermaid pitifully small, but Elvi had to keep an eye on him at all times during the fight to prevent Leia from being killed.
So that Leia would not be beaten to death...
Sully suddenly connected everything!
He opened his eyes wide and shouted at the giant dragon whose hands had been transformed into dragon claws: "The purpose of Bartholomew Christian's appearance is to assassinate Leia Sommerfeld!"
