The Ghouls Attack

After Natsu listened to Yeyue's analysis.Just as Yeyue's analysis was very correct, since he had planned for so long, it was impossible for him to be easily discovered, and this matter had to be considered in the long run.
The purpose of Kasyapa's plan in this way was to dedicate Ulutiya to the neighboring city lords, so that he could please them and further improve his status.In this way, he can successfully ascend to the position as prime minister.
Kasyapa's plan is really seamless. If he becomes a prime minister, his power will become greater.In this way, what he wants to do can be done smoothly.
His purpose of becoming a prime minister was not so simple. He also thought about ruling the city next to him, thinking about ruling the surrounding cities one by one under his feet.Kasyapa's ambition is really big!
However, Yeyue and Natsu were both shocked by Kasyapa and felt that it was really shameless for him to do so.Therefore, Yeyue and Natsu decided that no matter what method they use, they must dismantle this behavior of Kasyapa.
Chapter 292 A Different Atmosphere
Yeyue used magic to restore the torn paper, and slowly the original undamaged contents appeared on the paper.Yeyue was very angry when she saw the content on the paper.
Then the abominable Kasyapa actually wanted to use Ulutina and give Ulutina as a gift to the lord of the neighboring city, so as to achieve his purpose.But if Ulutina really falls into Kassapa's hands now, then she is in danger, so he must find a way to rescue Ulutina.
Yeyue took a while to calm down the anger in her heart, and he called Natsu to go to the city where Ulutina was deceived.
But after coming to this city, Ye Yue was stunned by the scene in front of her. The residents here looked very poor.And from the housing point of view, this place is really not very rich.
What did Kasyapa think?Actually sent Ulutina here.If he wanted to be prime minister, why did he choose such a poor city, and how could he prepare for his future rule?Shouldn't it be better to choose a richer city?
Just when I was thinking about this, a woman suddenly shouted from the side: "Come on someone, catch the thief, catch the thief, it's the one in front who is running with my bag."
But when Yeyue saw the people around her, no one cared about the woman's exclamation. They were still doing their own thing. Yeyue had no time to care, but he couldn't bear it anymore, so he helped the woman to chase that woman. The thief finally got the bag back and gave it to the woman.
The woman quickly thanked: "Thank you so much, but you shouldn't be from this city, because there haven't been such enthusiastic people in this city for a long time, and they have already regarded this theft as a normal thing. "
Yeyue asked the woman suspiciously: "Why is this? Why is stealing so common in this place, and people seem to be indifferent, and it seems that others will not help when something goes wrong. And in broad daylight, a big man robs a woman. The bag, but no one has done justice."
The woman smiled and said, "I've already seen it all. I just shouted out of my own instinct, and I didn't have much hope that someone would help me get my bag back."
Seeing Yeyue's puzzled expression, the woman went on to say, "Not only are people here bold enough to steal other people's things in broad daylight, but the phenomenon of theft is also very serious, and people are afraid to put some valuable things at home."
After hearing this, Yeyue said to the woman: "I just came to this city, and I don't know what the city was like before, so I'm very grateful for you to let me know about these things. I'll take the first step now if I have something to do. You are a woman. Yes, be more careful in the future."
The woman hurriedly said, "I should be the one to thank you more, so if you have something to do, go ahead and do it first, we will have an appointment later."
Yeyue still had some doubts in her heart, why is this situation here, so he and Natsu built a tavern together, where there were many people and it was easier to ask about something.
After the two of them found a tavern and sat down, the shop assistant came to greet them.The shop assistant was attentive to wipe the table for Yeyue and Natsu, and asked them while wiping: "You two are not local people, right? I will prepare what the two guests want to eat."
Yeyue ordered a few drinks and dishes, and then let the shop assistant go down first.Yeyue sat there and carefully looked at the facial expressions of all the people around her, and pricked up her ears to listen to what they said.
He saw the two people at the lead table whispering, and kept looking at him, listening carefully, the two were talking about themselves.They said, "Isn't this the person who saved the beauty just now? Haha, it's really new. There are still people like this in this place."
Yeyue couldn't listen to this kind of words. He sat on the table next to them and said to them: "Lu Jian is not flat and draws a knife to help, isn't this the basic truth that people should know as a human being? Why is it treated as an alternative in your place? , not only does not encourage this kind of behavior, but also scoffs at him?"
The guest officer said: "Normal? Do you think this kind of behavior is normal in our place? Oh, I see, I see it, you don't seem to be a local person, and you don't know our local customs, right? ."
Hearing the guest official say this, Yeyue took the opportunity to say: "Then please tell me about the situation of this place, so that I can understand and survive here for a longer time in the future."
Yeyue suddenly saw that the guest officer's face darkened, and said slowly: "Hey, this is a long story, in fact, our place was very good many years ago, but since the change of the city owner, he The huge tax collection, coupled with the fact that the farmers' income in these years is not good, so the people here seem to be very poor, some young people do not study well, and do not want to get that meager income through their own labor, so they go to Stealing and robbing has gradually become a bad trend, even if you see such behavior on the street, no one will care."
Yeyue asked suspiciously: "Even if the city owner doesn't govern the city-state, are there still some managers?"
The gentleman said: "Not to mention those management personnel, they are all relatives of the city lord, relying on their connections, they hold a generous salary, and they don't care about anything at all. The people were put to death, and gradually, even if something happened, the people didn’t dare to report it.”
When Yeyue heard this, his heart became even more puzzled. For a shrewd person like Kasyapa, how could he choose such a place as his bargaining chip in the future?
He thought that there must be something unknown in this place that attracts Kasyapa, but he can't see the attraction of this city-state at all, so it and Natsu need to continue to live here until they explore until the truth comes out.
It seems that the gentleman has not heard his complaints for a long time, and Natsu's appearance seems to have found a place for the gentleman to talk.
He continued: "The corruption in this place is also very serious. Although you can see that the civilians here are relatively poor, the officials are rich, living in luxurious houses and spending all day long, as if they are not interested in the outside world. They don't care about things at all, anyway, they all have the tax they collect as their source of spending, they never worry about how their people are doing, they only think about their own well-being."
Yeyue said helplessly to Mr. Na, "Since this situation has existed here for so many years, I think you should get used to it."
The gentleman said: "Adaptation is adaptation, but who wants to live in such an environment all the time?"
Chapter 293 Entering the Army
Seeing the sad expression on the gentleman's face, Yeyue really didn't know how to comfort him. At this time, the second shopkeeper brought their food and drink, and he said to the gentleman, "Our food and drink are here. Thank you for telling me this. Go back to my desk first."
The gentleman waved to Yeyue, then turned his head and continued to drink his own wine.
After returning to his table, Yeyue said to Natsu: "The general situation, the gentleman has told me just now, here as we have seen, the people are very poor, and the officials are corrupt, they spend all day Spend the day drinking and drinking, never caring about the lives of the people."
Natsu nodded helplessly and said, "I heard all your conversations just now."
Yeyue said: "The situation of this place is second, but what makes me wonder now is why Kasyapa chose such a broken place to rely on in the future. He offered Ulutina as a gift. What benefits can he get here. What if he becomes the prime minister here in the future? This place has absolutely no value at all."
Natsu waved his hand helplessly: "I can't figure it out either, let's take a step by step. And our top priority now is to rescue Ulutina. What might Ulutina encounter in this strange city-state? Danger."
At this moment, a loud noise came from the teahouse. Natsu looked towards the door and found that many people came, all of them carrying knives.
Yeyue thought that these people were rogue bandits or something, and came to smash the place, and he stood up at that time, who was just by nature.
But Natsu next to him grabbed him, let him sit down, and quietly said to Yeyue: "This is not our city-state, you have no background here, and you don't know who is coming, so you act on impulse. It's likely to cause some trouble for me."
Although Yeyue had always had some opinions on this cowardly Natsu, what Natsu said was not without reason. He sat down first and carefully observed the situation afterward.
Yeyue saw the second shop assistant coming up, and said to those people attentively, "Sit down and have a drink, all the soldiers? Here comes a new batch of good wine, and I'll bring it over for you to try it right away."
The soldier who took the lead looked very arrogant, he pushed the shop assistant and shouted: "Grandpa, I didn't come here to eat and drink today, the order was given to gather soldiers in the city, I think about you here. Come and take a look, everyone here, if you think you have the ability, you can take the initiative to sign up, and the treatment will definitely not be bad."
Although the treatment of the soldiers is not bad, none of the people in the teahouse came forward to speak, because they knew that these soldiers were not easy to mess with. Although they received a lot of salary every month, they would definitely get it when they first went. Bullied by these original soldiers, and all the money they got will be plundered by them, and in the end, I have little left.
And the soldiers summoned this time are not like these arrogant uncles in front of them. They will go to the front line to fight in the future. This is a life-threatening job. Although they are poor now, the rude city lord is not enough. his life.
