Chapter 951 182. Be careful of the banquet
In early October, when the first snow fell in the distant Breeze City, Annan stepped through the portal and came to his loyal Xing'er City.

"Is this Xing'er City?"

Annan was a little uncomfortable with the faint stench that hit him. Liberty City had been floating in the sky for so long that he almost forgot this "familiar" smell.

Xing'er City still looks both new and old, and all the towns in the Kingdom of Rekanel are almost the same.

Because they had just migrated here and the town had been built less than two years ago, the city lord's mansion and surrounding buildings were not much less new than the Free City. However, the various sheds in the outer city that were built with wood and leaked everywhere made people doubt whether they could safely spend the winter.

Retracting his gaze from the surroundings, Annan looked at the noble officials around the portal and exhaled mist: "Nice to meet you."

"Lord Annan, I am Dallaire, the deputy city lord of Xing'er City." Dallaire came forward and greeted humbly.

"Hello."

Annan greeted everyone one after another. He was as gentle as the rumors said, making people feel like spring breeze.

After Annan had walked around, Francois sat down and said, "There will be a banquet later, and all the nobles on our side will be there."

"I see..." Annan raised his head belatedly, "In whose name?"

"Of course it's the City Lord's Mansion."

"That's good."

Annan finally let go of his worries.

The title of "Banquet Killer" is like the women workers in the spinning mill always praying to the machines before starting work. It's a bit strange, but what if it really works...

"Where's Miss Olmedo?"

"She is in the City Lord's Mansion. What do you want from her?"

"About the situation in Xing'er City."

"You told me the same thing." Annan raised his head and caught Francois's eye. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I just think you look more handsome now."

The Black Widow, who came with Annan as a guard, instantly looked at Francois as if he were a love rival.

"How do you know I've advanced to level six?"

No wonder……

Francois continued, "Free Blade currently has 2,300 members. Due to the large number of applicants, we have set a threshold. The people who greeted you just now all have invitation letters. Among them, Deputy City Lord Dallaire and City Guard Officer Spencer can be trusted."

"Where are those Lame Babu and Little Small you mentioned in your letter?"

"I sent them to Eze Bay."

Annan stopped and said, "Izewan?"

"Well, they are all locals, and their appearance is naturally deceptive..."

A lame old man and a malnourished boy, even if they surrendered voluntarily, the kingdom would have to kick them out.

"Also, the ones who tried to attack us just now were the Green Ivy Knights."

"The Green Radish Knights..." Annan felt that it sounded familiar.

"They were the ones who fought against the rat tide on the outskirts of Breeze City. They were temporarily driven back by the Hellfire Legion, but they will come back again."

Annan felt a little sad. The damn Kingdom of Rekanel let these excellent warriors kill each other.

"Is it possible that they will be on our side?"

"do not know……"

"Try to make contact. Also, prepare to take all the local civilians back to Liberty City." "Aren't we going to make Xing'er City our rear base?"

"Yes, we built Xing'er City into a fortress to accept people who escaped from the kingdom, so civilians are of no use here."

It might even hinder the progress. The Kingdom's style of doing things would not care about the lives of civilians, but they couldn't.

When she was about to enter the banquet hall, Black Widow suddenly raised her staff and shot out an arcane homing missile, which drew an arc in the night sky and hit something.

Then there was a mournful cry, and the falcon that was watching Annan fell headfirst from the sky.

"You'd better not stay here too long..."

"I see... Are you sure the banquet is held in the name of the City Lord's Mansion?"

"I am sure."

Annan had a very uncomfortable time at this banquet. It had nothing to do with the absence of women, but because he was always worried about causing trouble.

As soon as the banquet was over, Annan left as hastily as he had arrived, so much so that Spencer couldn't help but ask, "Does Lord Annan hate us?"

"Don't act like a child who needs love. Annan doesn't hate any of you. He just has more important things to do." Francois looked at the portal that started to transport supplies. "Where are Babu and the others?"

"If we don't encounter any bandits, we should be there soon."

……

The skinny, scabby little Smokey, who was covered with sores and even rats found his teeth uncomfortable, pulled the cart. Lame Babu lay on the floor, covered with a blanket, and wherever the cart passed, it left a lingering stench of decay.

They were poor and tired and looked like they might die here at any moment.

At the end of the kingdom, all kinds of sins were common. Human trafficking and robbery were just the most common ones. There was no shortage of cannibal gangs and evil cults that performed blood sacrifices...

But these guys don't do all bad things. For someone as miserable as Smalls, they don't mind playing the role of a sympathetic person occasionally.

Relying on this, Lame Babu and Little Smoo crossed the wilderness that even caravans with excellent guards were afraid of, and arrived at Ize Bay.

But that seemed to have used up all their luck, as they saw the city-state in the distance, but before they could get close, a group of thugs with sticks rushed onto the road and blocked Little Smoo's way.

"My Lord...we have nothing."

Little Smalls begged just like he did before when he encountered the bandits, but was pushed away. The thugs swarmed over him and lifted the blanket along his nose.

A strong stench wafted out, and the thugs, unable to bear it, scattered and kicked over the cart.

Lame Babu rolled off the cart with a squeak, and little Small timidly came over to help him up.

This scene happened many times along the way, and they were used to it. Then the gangsters found nothing, so it was time to let them go...

But Little Smalls underestimated their viciousness. The thugs gained nothing and gathered together, making faint murmurs.

"They are either thin or old... worthless... a few copper coins are better than nothing..."

The thugs suddenly rushed towards Little Small and Lame Bob and picked them up.

"We are not delicious! We are not delicious!" Little Small screamed loudly.

"Don't shout, I'm helping you." The gangster's smile was definitely not kind, "Seeing how hard it is for you to pull the cart, I'll help you find a job."

"No... no need..."

"Tsk tsk, look how thin you have become..." The gangster forcefully grabbed Little Small and signaled to his companions to lift up Lame Babu and forcibly search him.

Fortunately, they didn't take anything, but they remembered the contents of the flyers.

The furious thugs took them into the mountains east of Ize Bay, and even the cart was not spared. It was about to snow, and such a large piece of wood would take at least a whole day to burn.
