Gao Jun waved his hand: "I don't care who you are. Just do as I say. My family doesn't want to have anything to do with you anymore. Once you get to Leopard Court, you can do whatever you want."
He told Gao Quan not to worry on this special train, and that even if his identity was found to be fake, he would help him out.
The condition for the exchange was that he would no longer have any connection with the Gao family after getting off the bus.
Gao Quan agreed. In his view, once he reached Leopard Court, he would be far away from the captain's pursuit, and then he could find a way to return to Xianxian City and pay homage to the Supreme King.
His encounters and adventures in the human world will become extremely valuable research documents, and he may even gain more if he can successfully bring back the Earth Essence Stone.
Shortly after the special train departed, the train conductor personally led a team to check tickets.
Leopard Court's railway system is already mature and, after decades of development, has been fully deployed and is used for transportation.
Because Lutoubao is a large city, there is a special train that goes to Leopard Court, but other smaller cities do not have this service.
Fortunately, Gao Quan's true identity was not discovered. The shop Gao Chun found on the black market had a good reputation, and the fake identity made for him was plausible.
Of course, it cost a lot of money, and Gao Quan kept this kindness in his heart but never mentioned it.
After all, he wasn't of the same race as humans. He came from the City of the Ancients and was a sea creature. He had always thought that he couldn't talk to the Wastelanders.
This adventure has helped Gao Quan grow a lot, and he also possesses the Earth Spirit Stone. Unfortunately, the Earth Spirit Stone has not reacted at all these days, just like an ordinary broken stone.
He could foresee that Gao Jun, as the captain of the elite vanguard in the First Main Force, was also a psionicist.
The fact that the Earth Essence Stone didn't react was exactly what he wanted; otherwise, it would have been very easy for Gao Jun to detect it, and then he would have been exposed.
Fortunately, the Gao family was not interested in him. Gao Jun even threatened to prevent him from having any further contact with Gao Chun, which Gao Quan was happy to see.
One day later, the special train arrived at Leopard Court.
When Gao Quan got off the car, his expression changed. The city was magnificent, with a royal court standing on a huge peak, and various fortresses and high-rise buildings standing in rows.
Gao Chun came up and shook hands with him, saying that they would meet again if fate allowed, and wished him to make a name for himself in his career. They also exchanged contact information.
Gao Jun stood aside, gazing intently at Gao Quan, hoping he would keep his promise. The two had already reached an agreement on the special train, and Gao Quan would not come back to the Gao family.
At this moment, I am far from the emperor and can roam freely.
During the ten-odd days Gao Quan spent in the workshop, he saved up a sum of money. Although it wasn't much, it was enough for him to gather information in Leopard Court.
"This is the address of the black market. I hope you will keep your promise." After saying this, Gao Jun left with his family and gave Gao Quan an address.
He was going to find the black market to continue his mission.
Fortunately, he was far away in Leopard Court. After leaving Deer Head Fortress, the danger above him had gradually disappeared, and his captain, who had long since turned into a beast, could not possibly chase after him along the special train.
He touched the earth spirit stone inside his clothes, and seeing the flowing water and bustling horses before him, he was filled with emotion.
Who could have known that he was carrying the most important spoils of war from the icy battlefield? He had once stolen a spirit stone under the spiritual pressure of a demigod—what courage that must have been!
Gao Quan took a deep breath and went to the black market following the address Gao Jun had given him.
Gao Jun, who had just left, asked his elder brother to take their parents back to their residence first. The military had already selected a nice villa for them, where they would recuperate from now on.
Gao Chun and his parents were very happy because the villa was built at the foot of the royal court, and they could see the magnificent Leopard Court Palace when they looked up.
Gao Chun kept sighing, saying that land here was incredibly valuable, and even the richest man in Deerhead Fortress, Crocodile Head, might not be able to buy these villas here. It's not something you can just live in if you have money.
After settling his family in, Gao Jun turned and left, still concerned about Gao Quan's identity.
If he hadn't served in the military, why would he lie? Why would he be at Deerhead Fort? Even those on the periphery of the war are not limited to this.
He could see the furtive and distant feeling about Gao Quan, which made Gao Jun very concerned.
He first went to the military headquarters, presented his military merits, and hoped to get help from his superiors.
"There is such a person, and I would like to request the military's assistance in investigating him."
The female soldier who greeted him smiled and said, "Comrade, you should contact the intelligence department. Why are you coming to us?"
Gao Jun directly produced his identification. Even though he had participated in the Ice Age War, it wasn't easy to obtain such a military identification document with a red booklet, red lettering, and the king's seal.
"Military merit?!" The female soldier who received him was startled, her pupils shrinking slightly. "I'll contact your colleagues in the intelligence department right away."
Martial merit is awarded to those who have made extraordinary contributions on the Ice Plains battlefield. After decades of fighting on the Ice Plains, there are very few people with such credentials.
Gao Jun soon met with the garrison commander of Leopard Court, who brought along intelligence personnel to receive Gao Jun.
"What brings you here, Your Excellency?" The officer first introduced himself, saying that he had also served on the Icefield battlefield, but had been forced to withdraw from the front lines due to injury, and had entered the Leopard Court through connections.
Hearing that his family had relatives in the cabinet, Gao Jun couldn't help but sigh, "At the foot of the capital, you can pick up anyone off the street and they're a member of the royal family."
Fortunately, he is now a military meritorious official, and even cabinet ministers treat him, the lowest-ranking nobles, with great respect.
Gao Jun had met the King of Qin; he had met him face-to-face on the battlefield and received praise from the King.
That was the highlight of Gao Jun's life, one he would never forget.
Gao Jun: "Help me look up someone. Here is his information."
