Card City is actually not very large, and by the standards of the New World, it is barely a second-rate castle, and if you want to rent the carriages that can be found everywhere in the castle to tour the city, one day's time is completely enough.

Jiang Han didn't have the idea of browsing the card city, he just felt that he was a little bored in school, and there were a lot of things recently, it was rare to be able to come out and take a walk on a crisp autumn afternoon, and take a walk casually, no specific plan was required, and there was no need for deliberate arrangements. Thinking about it, with his own face, he shouldn't be interrupted by others when he walks on the street, right? Jiang Han thought so, and walked like this, and walked not far, only to see the place where the school went straight to the left for a few hundred meters, Huo Ran suddenly became cheerful, lively, and naturally prosperous.

The Academy of Magic, in the end, is a school that shocks the continent, and it is full of students who are proud of the sky, even if ordinary people are a little powerful, no one wants to run to the school gate unless necessary, except for some rental carriages that squat outside the door all day long and wait for business to come to the door, even those who sell snacks are difficult to see at the school gate.

But here is different, like a bustling pedestrian street, not to mention the shops on both sides of the street, outside the shops, all kinds of snacks, pasta snacks, all kinds of fried boiled instant food, naturally there are all kinds of shops in the name of magic.

And the most, it is a clothing store, here is close to the Academy of Magic, there are not many others in the Academy of Magic, there are many rich people, not to mention the place close to the school, it is inevitable that there will be some shady entertainment places, people rolling among the dogs and horses, relying on beautiful clothes and exquisite play about the Academy of Magic to feed this pedestrian street! At least on the pedestrian street, Jiang Han walked all the way and met many students of the magic academy who had a little impression of himself, just like ordinary people, there were a few buddies, a few sisters, and young couples, who swaggered through the market as if no one was around.

Even Jiang Han saw a few mentors, as if they were attending some kind of party or dinner. Anyway, none of this has anything to do with Jiang Han, he is just a person who appreciates the scenery. It's a pity that this rare half-day of leisure and leisurely was interrupted when Jiang Han turned out of the pedestrian street.

The two men with respectful expressions but exuding the aura of a strong man all over their bodies intercepted Jiang Han's way head-on, and told him very gently but unmistakably: "Your Excellency the City Lord, please send us two brothers to invite you to the City Lord's Mansion for a gathering." "The city lord of Kacheng, Jiang Han has naturally heard that if Kacheng is a small kingdom, then there are two kings in this kingdom, one is Xiong Xiong, the principal of the Academy of Magic, and the other is Adero, the lord of Kacheng.

It may be whether Xiong Xiong allowed Adero to divide his respect and power in Kacheng, or Adero allowed Xiong Xiong to hold the power of Kacheng with him, and enjoy the glory and glory that Kacheng as a whole brings to the people of Kacheng. It should be said that these two people are a pair of old enemies, and they have never heard that one mountain can accommodate two tigers, not to mention that these two tigers are not one male and one female.

Jiang Han had heard that the headmaster Xiong Xiong had never appeared in the City Lord's Mansion, and Adero had never appeared in the Academy of Magic, as if the City Lord's Mansion and the Academy of Magic were two forbidden places, one forbidding Xiong Xiong's involvement, and the other prohibiting Adero's involvement. These two old rivals and old enemies, they must be involved in entanglements in interests and other aspects, even if they are not enemies, they are definitely opponents, and now their strength is not strong enough to ignore a strong person like Xiong Xiong, this Adero can compete with Xiong Xiong, his strength may not be lower than Xiong Xiong, and even a cut higher than Xiong Xiong, so now he will intervene in the battle and even the battle between the two of them, which is not in line with his own interests, let alone his current identity and status.

And now, Xiong Xiong hasn't found himself yet, but this Adero has come to the door, is he trying to win him over? Jiang Han's eyes were cold, and he said lightly: "It seems that if I don't plan to go to the City Lord's Mansion, the two of you are planning to invite you, right?" The two were stunned, and hurriedly lowered their heads: "Don't dare, we just act on orders, and we will never dare to have an offensive act of forcibly inviting distinguished guests." ”

Jiang Han hesitated for a moment, and decided to go to the City Lord's Mansion to have a look, even if it was just to see that mysterious city lord in Kacheng, few people have seen the true face of the city lord, and more importantly, this high-powered city lord can actually know that he is such a "little person", can there be no secret line of him in the magic academy? Who is this person, he must find out, otherwise, when he tries to help Xiong Xiong in the future, if he treats Adero's inner ghost as his own, it will be a big joke.

Yes, Jiang Han didn't plan to stand on the side of the city lord Adero, through the entourage of the city lord's mansion, he actually dared to run outside the magic academy to force guests, but it can be seen that in the battle between Xiong Xiong and Adero, this old headmaster is at a disadvantage, not to mention anything else, just after helping Adero deal with Xiong Xiong, he still wants to develop his strength in Card City, this Adero will agree to do so? Xiong Xiong is different, with his own help, even if he can kill Adero, with his team, I am afraid that he does not have the ability to take over Card City completely, and the large and small gaps and loopholes in this are enough to use his own strengths.

Calculated like this in his heart, Jiang Han nodded at the two entourages of the City Lord's Mansion: "Okay, lead the way, I've been in Kacheng for so long, it's time to visit the City Lord." The two entourages frowned in unison, this young man was so rude, in Card City, except for Xiong Xiong's god mage who was immortal, who would dare to be so rude to Adero who was a god fighter? They were not peerless masters, but they were just ordinary entourages in the City Lord's Mansion, so naturally they couldn't find out how high Jiang Han's cultivation was, and how dangerous this person was.

It is no wonder that people who put joys, sorrows, and sorrows on their faces can only be followers. The corners of Jiang Han's mouth curled, and he stepped onto the carriage summoned by the two entourages with a whistle, the car was shaky, and Jiang Han, who lifted the curtains to look at the passing scenery, was a little sleepy in this warm autumn sun. Yawned boredly, Jiang Han didn't deliberately remember the road, Kacheng is so big, could it be that Adero and his first meeting will not be arranged by him in his hidden place?

Jiang Han was right, the carriage drove smoothly all the way to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and someone outside the door answered, and the two entourages could not go further after entering the door, and there was someone else who led the way. The city lord's mansion is very wide, and I don't know how long the winding road has been, and the people who led the way have changed several times, and finally stopped at the door of a large house, and a person who looks like a housekeeper is standing on the steps of the door with his hands crossed.

"This is Mr. Jiang Han, right? The city lord has been waiting for you for a long time. The housekeeper waved his hand casually, and the two entourages who came in silently led the way left quietly, and the housekeeper smiled at Jiang Han with a smile, "Please forgive me, the city lord originally wanted to greet you at the door, but there are still distinguished guests to accompany you, so ......" Jiang Han didn't care about the stall hand: "I'm not our principal, how can I be worthy of the city lord to greet me personally, and having Mr. housekeeper waiting outside the living room door for a long time already makes me very uneasy." ”

Hearing him mention Xiong Xiong, the butler's face showed obvious displeasure. "City Lord, Mr. Jiang Han has arrived. Greeting Jiang Han up the steps, the housekeeper turned to report to the closed door. There was a hearty-sounding laugh from inside: "The people below are quite neat this time, you go and tell everyone that you will have to do things so neatly in the future." ”

Immediately afterwards, the hearty voice smiled again: "Funi, it seems that this student of yours is also a cheerful person, and I am full of confidence in this discussion." Then a familiar woman's voice sighed: "The city lord has praised me falsely, where am I qualified to be his mentor, all this is just acting according to the city lord's orders." ”

Sandra Funi, the young woman's mentor, Jiang Han's heart moved, and he solemnly accepted Adero's invitation to meet this time. They are obviously talking to themselves, this Sandra Funi is Adero's inner ghost in the Academy of Magic, it is said that before he signed an alliance treaty with him, such an important inside line could not be exposed, but they were so exposed, why is this?

Could it be that Adero is really so confident that he can guarantee that this time he will force himself to make an alliance with him? Jiang Han couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, he hated being called by others as an entourage, this Adero is really an arrogant and stupid guy. However, Sandra Funi doesn't seem to be from a humble background, listening to the tone of the two, the relationship between superiors and subordinates is obviously greater than the other relationships, how could she become Adero's pawn?

Jiang Han felt that he was afraid that he would have to reconsider, not to change the original intention of joining forces with Xiong Xiong to deal with Adero, but this alliance, he also needed to hear as much news as possible from Adero. Xiong Xiong's cultivation, at least Jiang Han felt that he could make a draw with himself who was going all out, and join forces with this kind of master, if he didn't want to be his vassal and obey his command, then only he could also show the strength to be qualified to be his ally rather than his subordinates.

Xiong Xiong can become a big man who is on a par with a city lord in Card City, but he was unexpectedly stunned for a while, and then smiled bitterly, and finally sighed softly: "Yes, yes, the truth that I have been pursuing over the years is actually from the mouth of the real enemy, it seems that the storm in Card City is really coming this time." As for Adero's last sentence full of threat and courage in Jiang Han's belt, Xiong Xiong didn't take it to heart at all.

Adero has recruited more than a dozen or even dozens of saint warriors, but Xiong Xiong is confident that once he fights, if he can kill Adero alone to take revenge, these people will at most kill him in the end. He didn't speak again for a long time, and just when Jiang Han thought that Xiong Xiong was also waiting for him to express his intention to join forces first, Xiong Xiong said lightly: "It's okay to tell you, your cultivation method, well, it's a little weird, Adero is interested in this." It's not about the big picture, so have you decided what you're going to do?"

However, without waiting for Jiang Han to say his decision, Xiong Xiong shook his head and sighed: "I ask this, as if I want to take the opportunity to let you choose between light and darkness, do you want to know the story between me and Adero?" Jiang Han sat up straight: "If the principal is willing to tell me, then I will listen." "Actually, it's just a matter of one sentence. After a pause, all of a sudden, Xiong Xiong's beard was all open, "My family is young, and I was killed cleanly, over the years, I have always suspected that Adero did it, but unfortunately there is no proof In Jiang Han's opinion, Adero's self-confidence is stupid."

This person, you have to admit that his aristocratic temperament is indeed very good and powerful, but it is this so-called aristocratic temperament that may be invincible in front of everyone else, but in front of Jiang Han, it will not have a positive effect at all. He only knows that respecting himself, at least this is still a person who can be related, and he just wants to use his identity and status to suppress people, with Jiang Han's current cultivation, although it has not yet reached the point of being the best in ancient and modern times, but this world is so big, where can he not go? In this card city, with his strength, he is also fully qualified to talk to this Adero on an equal footing, at least Adero should show respect for an ally.

And the reason for Adero's self-confidence to conceit, Jiang Han only summed up one, that is, he was too high and too conceited. Suppressing people with power, this may be Adero's usual trick, he can collect the talent group that compresses Xiong Xiong in the magic academy, and his ability is naturally good, but he can imagine that most of the talent group under his command is probably forced by him to get it, right? It turns out that Adero is thinking about subduing himself, not looking for his own alliance! Jiang Han smiled lightly, Adero has his ambitions, doesn't he have it? This huge city lord's mansion doesn't seem to be able to trap himself as a dragon, and wants to subdue himself as a subordinate? In this world, such a person does not exist yet! So, Jiang Han smiled.

Sandra Funnie's heart palpitated for a while, this student of her own, since she was ordered to develop him, probably knew that she was facing a guy who was more than enough to be her own mentor, and her mood had not been completely relaxed. Thinking that this guy would most likely decline Adero's offer, Funnie glanced at Adero with some dissatisfaction. This city lord, to be honest, is a pretty good person among the strong, but his attitude of being a self-conscious nobleman, let alone a master like Jiang Han, even Funi herself can't accept it.

Can't you just sit down and talk about many things calmly and reciprocally? Why do you have to act like you're superior, and always treat others as a tool, only caring about what can be used and what's not available, and whether it's acceptable or not? Funi was suddenly a little panicked, she was very worried about Jiang Han, who was angered by Adero's high profile, and turned around and went to join forces with Xiong Xiong. She couldn't see through Jiang Han's cultivation and attainments, but presumably Adero as a god fighter and Xiong Xiong as a god mage, they could see through it, right? In contrast to Adero's attitude, if this "student" of her own and Xiong Xiong, who was much better than Adero in terms of cultivation and personality, had really joined forces, would this guy really have no back at all when he walked into the City Lord's Mansion so calmly? Thinking of the powerful god mage who made him fearful, Funi shuddered.

If this young man who smiled and didn't let Adero look at him take the lead here, and Xiong Xiong sat behind and prepared a trap for Adero to jump on, it would be hard to say who would die and who would live if he started today.

Academy of Magic. Jiang Han lay on the grass leisurely, holding a magic book, looking at the sun with a relaxed face, looking like he was reading a book, but in fact, his brain was like a spinning nest now. Just after meeting the city lord, he was called over by the principal again, and there was nothing to see the two top characters in a row, but they talked to themselves, which is not something that can be digested at once.

When Jiang Han was thinking nonsense, a soft voice pulled him back: "Classmate Jiang Han, you can't step into it here." "Hmm, Mentor Funi, how do you have time to come here?" Jiang Han put down the magic book and smiled lightly at a beautiful woman in front of him. Funi looks to be in her thirties, but she is actually eighty years old, which was told to Jiang Han by the city lord.

At this time, when Jiang Han saw this beauty, he felt that he rarely distinguished, such an old woman, but now this wolf-like beauty, Jiang Han thought about it in his heart for a while. This beauty looks like this, knowing her real age, no matter how you look at her, she feels so twisted, and how does her appearance stay, if only she could stay young forever.

Jiang Han asked the city lord, but the city lord smiled and didn't answer, and he could only feel very depressed. The main reason is that Jiang Han has an idea, this is an old woman, don't touch her if you can not contact her in the future, it feels disgusting to think about it! In fact, Jiang Han's cultivation exercises, he did maintain his appearance, but he himself did not know the flow of time like water, but his appearance did not change at all. "That's not the point. Tutor Funi smiled like a flower branch and threw a wink at Jiang Han.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Han felt uncomfortable all over his body, and a chill rose from the soles of his feet, as if he had been bitten by thousands of ants. If others are flattered by Mentor Funnie, they will definitely think that they are dreaming, after all, Mentor Funnie saw that she was in her early thirties last time, but she was as beautiful as a girl in the flower season, and she still had a mature charm. But Jiang Han doesn't think so, he is still nauseous except for nausea, no matter how he thinks about it, he feels disgusting.

"This is the Forbidden Garden, and no one is allowed to step into it, don't you know?" said Mentor Funi, smirking at the corners of her mouth. "Oh? I don't know. I saw that the grass on this lawn was good, and it was very comfortable to lie down, so I lay down here and slept. Jiang Han said naturally, lying comfortably on the lawn, obviously not wanting to talk to Mentor Funi anymore.

"Hey, you can't lie down here. Mentor Funi refused to let him go, and raised her head angrily. Jiang Han didn't take her in his eyes, and after knowing her true identity, he didn't put her in his eyes, and the next sentence made her speechless: "Planting grass doesn't let people lie down, it's better to plant cacti instead!" Tutor Funi was speechless, she was originally called by the city lord to teach Jiang Han some things, but now Jiang Han was so angry that she couldn't say anything, and finally turned around and left.

"Hey. After Mentor Funi left, Jiang Han sighed softly, and finally poured out all the things in his head, deciding to ignore those for now, they could do whatever they wanted, and just do their own thing. According to Jiang Han's plan, since the academy was taken by him, then the next one would be the mercenary group, as long as all the mercenary groups were in his own hands, he would have a foothold in this world. Of course, this is what he thinks himself, in fact, he directly offended the major nobles, and I don't know if the people in the upper echelons will make him feel better.

Now that Jiang Han has subdued Hitomi, and there is already the matter of the dense forest, this black shadow must be held in his hand, and if the blazing sun is attacked by someone, it will definitely be known soon, but absolutely no one can know the truth.

What do you call you?" Jiang Han didn't retreat, and asked Zhengshiba. Although Jiang Han's face was expressionless, his heart was not comfortable, the strength of the man in front of him may not be very good, but his aura was too strong. It must not be a thing in the pool. "I've long forgotten what my original name was. Now I have a single name, you can call me Uncle Ba. Ba smiled lightly and said, then changed the taste, and said with a little warmth: "Maybe my father-in-law now has a share in himself and the city lord, and he must stir up the water even more muddy, so extinguishing the entire blazing sun is an urgent thing to do at the moment." The Black Shadow has a grudge against the Blazing Sun, which is something that the mercenary groups outside know, but the Blazing Sun is more than three times stronger than the Dark Shadow, and the Blazing Sun has always treated the Dark Shadow as a toy.

When it was time for free time in the academy, Jiang Han found Hitomi, and he asked to go home with Hitomi, which frightened the fawn in Hitomi's heart, jumping around, and finally nodded with a slightly blushing face. Jiang Han noticed the change in Hitomi, but he didn't care about her careful thoughts, and her father's strength was too weak, and he might not even have the qualifications to use it. Hitomi took Jiang Han directly back to the courtyard of her house and met Hitomi's father, Ba. A man who really exudes domineering all over his body.

Ba's eyes flashed with lightning, staring at Jiang Han sharply, his eyes swept up and down in his eyes, and finally smiled lightly: "Young man, we meet again." Ba nodded with satisfaction, how could she not know her daughter's thoughts. "I should, I don't mind. This next very simple sentence, Jiang Han naturally heard it clearly, this meaning is clear, if I can agree to marry my daughter to you.

Jiang Han liked this pupil very much, but Ba's words reminded him of Hu Mei, and Ye Qingling, who was far away, but he didn't have the ambiguity of liking Hitomi. Thinking of this, Jiang Han was depressed, since he passed through that forest, the communicator had completely failed. "Huh. Uncle Ba laughed. Jiang Han smiled awkwardly, and then said with a straight face: "Let's talk about something serious." "Okay. More on that later. I don't know what happened to me today, junior brother Jiang Han?"

"Hitomi, I should have told you everything I did, right?" Jiang Han's face suddenly sank, and then he asked with a relaxed smile. Jiang Han's small change is that smart people will naturally notice it, if Ba can't even feel this, then everything about him doesn't need to exist. "What does Brother Jiang mean by this?" Ba hesitated for a moment, then he suddenly understood, and said with a relaxed smile: "Boss Jiang has become the boss of the academy, and he has won the Revenge Fire Mercenary Group, and he is really a hero out of a young man." ”

"It's all trifles. I'm here today because I want to talk to you about something. Jiang Han shrugged his shoulders lightly. Ba was stunned for a moment again, according to what Jiang Han did, Hitomi was naturally clear, but in this case, what else did Jiang Han need to tell him alone? Could it be that Jiang Han had a new plan! Suddenly Ba had a premonition, that incident seemed to be related to the young man in front of him, and he must have some plan when he came here this time, and it was probably a black shadow who wanted himself. Ba snorted coldly in his heart, although his family business is not big, it is not something that Jiang Han can pass by the way, but with such a big mercenary group as Qiu Huo, this kid is indeed in his hands.

After thinking about it repeatedly, he still chose to talk to Jiang Han, and withdrew his personal guards, including Hitomi, from the hall. Ba easily knocked on Erlang's leg and said, "Boss Jiang, just say what you have." ”

"I'm sure you know what happened in the jungle, but I don't think you can find out where those goods went, and I definitely don't know, but I killed a lot of people in the blazing sun, but the goods were taken away by the mysterious mercenary group. Jiang Han said calmly, as if talking about trivial matters that had nothing to do with him.
