Chapter Twenty-Four: The Scales of Victory

Outside the carriage there was a rustling of rain, which was small, but the clouds covered the moonlight.

Hazy and dim carriage, Xia Han quietly looked at Bai Yue, who fell asleep after the noise, this girl grabbed the seat tightly with her two little hands, and she could sleep with a smile on the bumpy mountain road.

"This girl is amazing too"

He can only sigh like this, the mountain road is too bumpy, and Xia Han always sleeps and wakes up, sleeps and wakes up.

"Hey, where are you going?"

He opened the curtain on one side and questioned the knight who was riding outside in the rain.

"Church of Light." This knight is a young man who pulled down Bai Yue's skirt a few years ago but was not expelled, his name is Ye Hui. Since that night, he has always had great respect for Xia Han: "Is Your Highness going to church too?" ”

"No, I'm going to Windy City." Xia Han smiled, and then closed the curtains again.

He glanced at Bai Yue with a complicated expression, and then put away the handkerchief that had fallen on the ground because of the fight.

There is only one road to walk in the winding mountains, this road is the north-south road that human beings spent more than ten years to open up after coming to the Qilin Continent, and the trees on both sides are tall and strong in the night, which can be seen from the color of the jungle back then.

"Phew—be careful."

Suddenly there was a knight's scolding outside, Xia Han opened a few gaps in the curtain to take a look, and found that some passers-by with heavy packages on their backs were going up in the night in the opposite direction, which would hinder the convoy from time to time.

These passers-by

"Knight, can you help me ask these passers-by what they are doing north?"

Xia Han's honorific title made the young knight's heart flutter, and he hurriedly responded, and then changed his attitude to ask passers-by.

Passers-by unanimously replied that they were fleeing.

The army's defeat in the Demon Bone Desert naturally could not hide the people living in the Wind Grassland, and some families or villages in panic immediately began to migrate north. It's no wonder that there were rumors in Jade City so early, and with the increase in the number of people moving north, the people of the entire empire would know about it in a few days.

"Shame! Run away when you see the slightest disturbance, civilians are civilians! ”

After hearing the reason, the knight's attitude changed again, and he scolded these people who migrated north for being spineless.

Xia Han scoffed at his words, the commoners did not have the patience of the nobles, they did not have force and transportation, so they naturally had to prepare when they saw the wind and grass. And once the nobles find that there is no hope of victory, they may run faster than the commoners.

However, in fact, there is another reason why these civilians run so fast

"What do you say, knight! Her Royal Highness the Princess has long said that all aliens are monsters, let's escape as soon as possible, if we don't run now, will we wait for death? ”

"That's right, Her Royal Highness the princess is an unpredictable prophet, it's your group of people who don't believe it!"

Xia Han was the culprit behind the rapid northward migration of the people of the Swift Grassland, who had said that there was danger half a year ago, and even included the knowledge of escape in some songs: for example, how to quickly pack luggage, how to take care of the elderly and children on the road, how to distribute food every day, and so on

Half a year ago, many people took him for a fool, but now as soon as the war breaks out, his results have been achieved.

No matter how much Xia Han doubted him, it was enough for him to use this disaster to quickly increase his faith. And the reason why he gave up the singing team in Emerald City was because they didn't need to exist, Xia Han didn't need to sing anymore.

As the invasion of the orcs intensifies, the people of the Emerald Empire will fall into a panic, and the more they panic, the more they will remember Xia Han's advice. Even if he moved to the Vermilion Bird Continent in the future, for such a long period of time, Xia Han would be able to upgrade faster than usual even if he didn't do anything.

[The so-called war money is this thing, right?] 】

Rather than worrying and fearing about war, Xia Han was clearly more satisfied with the rapid increase in strength. Although he has been in this world for many years, he still can't put himself in his shoes when looking at things - two years ago, Wujian almost gave him a sense of belonging to the world, but unfortunately this sense of belonging was cut off in the bud.

In Xia Han's eyes, the world is just a large RPG game, and everything exists for him to upgrade.

As long as it can be upgraded, it doesn't matter if the people in the whole world die, but unfortunately, except for this special situation, the dead people don't seem to meet the conditions for upgrading at other times.

"That's right, the Illustrated Book"

Xia Han suddenly remembered that he hadn't asked one thing clearly for so many years, so he asked the golden finger in his body: "I asked you if the plot mode had to be completed, and you replied yes, but if I can't complete it, what will be the result?" ”

"Congratulations on missing information!"

A smiley face appeared on the Pokédex, and then one by one, it was displayed: "You have two chances to fail, and after the first failure, the difficulty of the story mode will be reduced, and it will only be triggered once a week." However, after the second failure, you will lose the guidance of the story mode, and your ears will permanently become pig ears. ”

"Friendly reminder: every owner has embraced the plot mode, and in the end, no one has been spared. One of the masters changed his bloodline to become a dragon for this reason, but unfortunately he was still a pig's ear after the transformation. ”

A dragon with pig ears, the pig ear dragon Xia Han couldn't help but shudder when he thought about it, so after he failed twice, whether it was an elf or a human, he would become a pig-eared person, wouldn't that be a pig-headed man?

Although there are pig-headed races in this world, Xia Han doesn't want to be involved with them.

"Hasn't the method of pig ear punishment been changed? It's good to change to wolf ears."

Xia Han cautiously tried the illustrated book, but the illustrated book came out with a sentence categorically: "The punishment content is the original setting of the illustrated book, and it cannot be changed." ”

There's no hope now.

What a mess of settings! Xia Han was depressed, it seemed that he was destined to fight with all his strength in his life, how could a good man who stood up to the sky make himself a pig!

However, if one day he succeeds in his cultivation and meets the person who made this illustrated book, he will definitely have a red knife in and a white knife out, but if he meets a person who makes this illustrated book, he will definitely have a white knife in and a red knife out!

Many fantasy novels will end up with a shocking conspiracy, and this world should have it, right?

Xia Han couldn't help but imagine how big and sinister this conspiracy would be, and he let time slip by without paying attention for a while, and the convoy walked out of the Yulin Mountains in the early hours of the morning.

"Miss, Miss, we're going to the city."

The knight shook Bai Yue awake, and then pulled her away in a daze.

And Xia Han was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when an old man appeared strangely next to the carriage, he bowed and saluted: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the city lord asked me to greet you." ”

The old butler by Wujing's side - their intelligence network is really powerful.

"Let's go, then." Xia Han waved his hand a little sleepily, he was not timid, because even the balance of relative victory in life and death did not necessarily belong to Wujing.
