The five Holy Knights sat on the back of the Yamabi Beast with sad faces, and each of them was tied up by the Yamabi Beast's fur.
Shanshan's fur was very big and thick, and the five Holy Knights could easily get out through it, but they didn't dare to, because Shanshan said that if they dared to get out, he would immediately step on them to death.
"I miscalculated. I thought it would be an easy job. I thought it was just an ordinary monster with big body and brute force. I didn't expect it to be so strong?" The Light Knight sighed.
"I shouldn't have followed you here. I thought I was doing a great deed, but now I don't know if I can even keep my life," the Dark Knight said. "I could have just been relaxing and enjoying my vacation at the seaside, but you had to come here and suffer humiliation and torture!"
"What are you five chattering about here?" Wang Xiaohai walked over. "Someone lead the way to the Kingdom of Bestan."
Although Shanwei Beast was very familiar with the terrain of this continent, he was not familiar with the names of the countries. Over the past ten thousand years, countless countries and dynasties had changed, and the previous countries had long since disappeared and become the dust of history.
The five Holy Glory Knights turned their heads and glanced at each other, none of them saying a word. After all, they didn't know Wang Xiaohai, nor were they close to him. Without understanding his character, who would dare to help him? If Wang Xiaohai was a sinister and treacherous villain, they would be dead in an instant. It was best to maintain the status quo.
"Whoever agrees first will have semi-freedom," said Wang Xiaohai.
The five Holy Knights were silent for a while.
"What is semi-freedom?" asked the Ice Knight.
"What it means is that you can do whatever you want except running away," Wang Xiaohai explained.
"Then I agree." The Ice Knight agreed immediately without hesitation.
The other four Holy Knights looked at the Ice Knight as if he were a traitor.
"It has come to this. Do you think you can save your lives by not agreeing?" said the Ice Knight. "You have no choice anymore. Don't try to be stubborn." Although his strength is the lowest among the five, his IQ is not the lowest.
"Okay, follow me." Wang Xiaohai brought the Ice Knight to the tip of the Yamabi Beast's nose, and the two stood on it together. "From now on, you will lead the way, Yamabi Beast, go forward."
"I just sneezed and blew you two away!" Shanshan always felt his nose itchy, not sure if it was a physical or psychological feeling.
"I'm going to sleep. Shanshan, you chat with this Holy Knight. Call me when we arrive at the destination." Wang Xiaohai said, and lay down with his eyes closed at the edge of the Shanwei Beast's horn.
Wang Xiaohai slept very soundly. Although Shanshan always did stupid things, it gave him a sense of security and he didn't have to worry about being attacked while sleeping.
Yamabimon ran swiftly, like a flash of lightning. In a fraction of a second, it darted from day to night, meaning beneath the dark clouds. Just as running in the direction of the Earth's rotation would ensure perpetual daytime, so long as it ran fast enough, day and night could be switched at will.
"We're here. After crossing this plain, the border city of the Bestan Kingdom is right in front of us." The Ice Knight said to Shanshan.
"Then I'll speed up!"
As the Yamabimon spoke, it ran forward a few steps, then stepped into the swamp, half of its body sank into it, and then it used the floating method to stand on the surface of the swamp - it could stand in the boundary sea, let alone the swamp. Although it could not fly, it was because it was too fat. Once its strength increased or it lost some weight, it would be able to fly.
Shanshan used its horn to emit a beam of light, which woke Wang Xiaohai up.
"Shanshan, what are you doing?" Wang Xiaohai jumped up and cursed. The current was too terrifying, at least over 100 million volts!
"I just want to remind you. The Kingdom of Bestan is just ahead. Should we go in directly or sneak in quietly?" Shanshan said.
"Hmm..." Wang Xiaohai thought for a few seconds and decided, "I'll go alone. You help me keep an eye on these five knights. The Ice Knight can move freely, but he can't leave the area for too long. The other four Holy Glory Knights will be tied up at all times."
"Okay, I'll stay here and wait for you. This place is a swamp and uninhabited, so we shouldn't be discovered." said Shanshan, the Yamabi Beast.
"Then don't let them escape. Having them in our hands is equivalent to holding them as hostages. The Dingwen Church will also be cautious and dare not act rashly." Wang Xiaohai said as he flew towards the edge city of Bestan.
"Go treasure hunting without worry, I won't let them escape!" Yamao Beast felt that as a worker to pay off debts, he had to meet his employer's requirements, otherwise he would be derelict in his duty.
It only took Wang Xiaohai a few seconds to fly across the swamp.
In front of us are rows of green houses, all in farm style with a small yard and a steam engine in the yard. It is obvious that the people in this border town are relatively wealthy.
Wang Xiaohai only knew that Marquis Sean had fled to the country of Bestan, but he didn't know the exact location.
While this marginal town had many wealthy people, it also had even more poor people. Farther out, rows of wooden sheds stood, their fences surrounded by colorful plastic bags to protect against wind and rain. These seemed to be the city's slums. Wang Xiaohai also spotted two shirtless children running in front of the sheds, screaming and cheering while holding paper airplanes. He dodged and found himself on the streets of the slums.
The street was also a bumpy mixture of mud and gravel. There were countless potholes of varying sizes on the road surface, all filled with muddy sewage. It was obvious that it had just rained here. A crocodile leather boot was stepping on the edge of a small puddle. The owner of the boot was wearing a shiny leather windbreaker and a round hat, with only half of his face exposed.
"Ten temporary workers, come and move the goods to the dock!" the leather boot owner shouted on the street. He was the foreman in charge of recruiting workers here, specializing in contracting work for wealthy individuals or companies. After receiving the contract fees from the wealthy, he would go to the slums to find people to work at extremely low prices, profiting from the difference.
Although everyone in the slums called him Blackheart Billy and cursed him and said bad things about him behind his back every day, after hearing Blackheart Billy's cries, most people opened the tattered wooden doors and gathered around Blackheart Billy.
"You—you, and you!" Blackheart Billy pointed at ten strong-looking paupers and said, "The ten of you come with me. Ten copper coins a day. The rest of you go!"
"Wait..." A young woman ran out of a dilapidated house next door and said to Blackheart Billy, "Can you take me with you? I can work too."
"You? You can't do it. You have delicate skin and tender flesh, and you can tell you have never done hard work." Black-hearted Billy said, and suddenly a lewd smile appeared on his face, "Unless you are willing to be my lover, I promise that you don't have to work. If you need money, just tell me!" Although the appearance of the veiled woman cannot be seen, judging from her figure, she should be very beautiful!
"I don't think it's necessary. You're too ugly. She can't be your lover because she's my lover." Wang Xiaohai walked over and pulled the woman to his side. "Deli Lorraine, why are you here? And living in a place like this?"
The veiled woman was none other than the Countess Daly whom Wang Xiaohai met in the Steam City in the Sean Desert.
