Alien world

Chapter 362 20. Cats make great contributions

All city-states have areas beyond the reach of kingship.

This is the case with Sturves, this is the case with Betal City, and even Breeze City cannot avoid it-there are a large number of gangs entrenched around the slums in the south of the city, countless crimes breed there, and countless cleanings will not disappear, Olmedo Can only acquiesce in the existence of gray.Because the price to pay for cleaning them is far beyond imagination.

And Betal City is completely controlled by the rich and powerful, and never cares about the life and death of the lower levels.It is said that not long after Breeze City migrated, Betal City, which was besieged by the Ratmen, also began to migrate. As for how many people escaped, Olmedo didn't even dare to tell Annan.

So the elves love to say that other races have original sin, because the elves are proud to be proud, but they never hurt each other, they have lofty ideas and determination to fight for honor.

Except for dark elves.

Due to historical issues, Stolves is only more complicated than other towns. In any case, the gray area of ​​Stowes is like gangs in the slums. Some run casinos, some make meat, and some raise pickpockets.Succubus roam the night, vampires hunt for blood in taverns, and other magical creatures haunt the night as well.

The vampires living in Stolves have even split into factions:
A group of vampires who cooperate with nobles.The group of vampires who are looking for business in taverns, the group of vampires who lead gangs to raise blood food, and the foreign vampires who come here for fame.

The faction has derived a chain of contempt:
Vampires who hang out with nobles look down on vampires who forage in taverns, vampires who forage in taverns look down on vampires who walk on the edge of lawlessness, and vampires who walk on the edge of law look down on vampires who kill outsiders.

"It must not be us who took your friend away!"

Lenovo Xian Na's mother is not particularly worried about her daughter's safety... Is it the first one who took Xian Na?
"I can let you go back, but you have to help me investigate."

Annan asked the earth element to let it go, as if he believed the vampire's words.

"What can I get?"

"If you find it, it's okay to give you some of my blood."

"Are you still attending the super exciting banquet? There are still many nobles..."

This vampire is not giving up.Warlocks are scarce resources, especially pure warlocks that have not been eaten yet.

The hesitant Annan finally shook his head, he has not found Xian Na yet.

After letting the vampires go, Annan put away the two elements and walked into a new tavern.

This time, no magical creatures came. In the middle of the night, Annan politely refused the tavern owner's request to stay - because his appearance made the guests sit for a long time.

The cool night wind is coming, it seems that Xian Na can only be imprisoned for another day...

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Annan heard cats meowing from the side alley.Handing the reins to the waiter who came out, Annan followed the sound and saw the cat squatting in the alley with its cat friends telling stories.

In the quiet night, the sound of Annan's footsteps made the cats vigilant, and some of them made escape gestures.

"Don't be afraid, this is a good man, he always feeds the cat delicious food." The flower cat said, and the twinkling eyes of the cat made Annan couldn't help but want to empty his pockets.

"Are you the boss of these cats?" Annan asked.

"They listen to cats meow."

"Can you ask them to find someone for me?"

"Leave it to the cat."

Huamao and cat friends translated Annan's words: "One of his friends named Xian Na was taken away by bad guys."

"What is Shana?"

"What are friends?"

"What is a vampire?"

After struggling to get a group of cats to understand what he meant, Annan puffed up his chest, like a revered hero, generously announced: "Find Xianna, and eat as much fish as you want."

The only spectators meowed one after another.

"The cats ask what fish is." Huamao said.

The strange noises in the alley lasted for a long time. Annan returned to the mansion, opened the bedroom window, and waved with the cats on the street.

"Come back and tell me immediately if you find any traces."

"Let's go meow!"

Huamao ordered, and the group of cats dispersed.

And Annan entered meditation with a wonderful sense of accomplishment.

In the early morning, Annan was awakened by a loud noise.

The cats were shouting outside the window, and Martin was still sleeping soundly in the living room.

Sleepy-eyed Annan saw the cat surrounded by cats and leaped onto the window sill: "The cats found Xi Nali."

……

The people of Stowies saw a strange sight today: dozens of cats ran ahead, followed by a carriage.

Annan and Alice gathered at the intersection and followed the group of cats to a warehouse on the edge of a slum.

This is the site of the Fernand Gang, but the boss of the Fernand Gang hasn't shown up for several days.Annan guessed that the vampires who occupied the magpie's nest cleaned them up...but he found no trace of vampires near the warehouse.

They gave up here?
"Your Highness, are we alone?" Luther King expressed fear because of the dark warehouse: "Should we call some more people..."

"enough."

Annan opened the portal and summoned five teams of earth elements.

One team protects the cats, one team protects them, and the remaining three teams explore the warehouse.

The unsold loot was piled up in the warehouse, and the elements found the entrance to the converted basement. In the basement converted into a dungeon, they found a few bloody corpses that were about to weaken into mummified corpses, and piles of bones ranging from children to old people... …

"Damn vampires..."

Then they discovered that these bones spanned from several years to a few months ago. This was a crime committed by the Fernand Gang, and those bloody people were the top leaders of the Fernand Gang.

"Damn the vampires for keeping them..."

No time to think about whether these vampires are doing good deeds, he ordered the earth element to continue searching, and finally found Xiana in the depths of the dungeon.

Everything is fine for Shana, except that she is not very clean because of being handcuffed, and there are not many injuries other than scratches.

That's why the rescued Xian Na didn't throw herself into Annan's arms. She was wearing a blanket and asked Annan weakly and gratefully: "Are you doing it for me?"

Thinking of the gem promised by Xian Na's mother, Annan said seriously: "Yes."

Handing Xianna to the housekeeper who came, and then handing over the scene to the city hall, Annan carried the biggest hero—the cats into the carriage, drove them back to the mansion, and rented the restaurant next to it.

The restaurant manager said reservedly: "Sorry sir, we can't do it for your cat—"

wow-

Annan threw the heavy money bag on the counter, and the gold coins scattered out.

"Guys! Bring out your best skills!"

In a restaurant full of cat tails and licking sounds, Annan and Alice sat in front of the window, talking about the strange behavior of Siena's mother.

"Forget it, this is a matter for Xian Na's family."

Annan has gained a lot in the past two days:

He gained wealth, referring to the reward from Xian Na's family; broadened his horizons, referring to the way the nobles discovered how to play; he was welcomed, referring to the charm that even vampires could hardly resist.

Annan's life returns to calm -- oh, and there's a bunch of cats to feed.

And a Contest of Empires to take part in.
