Chapter 162: Kayla
As mentioned earlier, the influence of Hend Academy within the Hodd Kingdom is huge.
So when Reagan pulled out the certificate, he immediately had a stepping stone to the top.
This area of Harring Harbor is not far from Hodd College, and there are many people in the area who were former Hodd College students.
Reagan took out the certificate of graduation from Hodd College, which was equivalent to having a pass to the upper class, which meant a lot to him.
With this statement and Yatimu's background, he managed to stand out during this time and take his business further.
"It's you."
Listening to Reagan's experience, Artimus smiled and praised him: "Even if you leave the academy, you can rise so quickly, and you are worthy of Reagan."
"Haha, you've won the prize."
Hearing Yadimu say this, Reagan was also a little proud.
After all, to make such a career in a short period of time, no matter what, it also requires strong enough ability.
But then he sighed and said, "What is all that I have done here compared to you?"
"In the past, in the academy, I knew the dignity of knights and the strength that knights represented, but at that time I was still young, and I was actually very unconvinced, I always felt that even if I was not a knight or a professional, I could successfully rise with my own intelligence and talent, and become a big man who was not inferior to those knights."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help laughing at himself: "But when I really got out of the academy, I realized how naïve my thoughts were."
"There are too many smart people in this world, and sometimes, it is not enough to have intelligence and talent, but also to have strength and background to support it."
"Just like now, I can have a career like this, although it has my efforts, but it is more because of your background in Artimu."
He looked at Yadimu and said sincerely, "Don't look at my business is doing well, and people everywhere are polite to me, but if it weren't for Yadimu's relationship with you, and without the certificate that Huode Academy gave me, I wouldn't want to open a store in this place at all."
"Don't talk about those big people who are on the top, even if it's a gang gangster on the side of the road, I can't do anything, sooner or later I will be dragged down."
He sighed with emotion, and he felt very deeply about this.
Reagan was also a proud young man.
When he left Hold Academy, he was full of confidence and wanted to make a career to prove that even if he was not a professional, even if he was an ordinary person, he could still get ahead.
But the truth is brutal.
The world is full of intrigues, and what appears to be things is often not simple.
In the case of the shop he is currently opening, there are gang members patrolling the streets all the time.
If you don't have a background, it's impossible to open a store in this place, and sooner or later you'll be dragged down by all kinds of things.
But with the background of Artimu and Hodd Academy, those people did not dare to come to Reagan's trouble.
Because with just one word, he may be able to wipe out the gang forces of those people directly.
That's how the world is.
That's why Reagan was so emotional.
Artimus patted Reagan on the shoulder, silently comforting him.
The world is indeed cruel, and Artimus has always known this.
Things can be changed on the surface, but these rules will be difficult to shake and difficult to solve even after many years.
Even Artimu couldn't do anything.
At this moment, in the face of his old friend, the only thing he can do is to comfort him and give him the greatest support.
"By the way, please take these things."
After a moment, Reagan seemed to think of something and brought a large box.
The box opened, revealing thousands of gold coins.
Thousands of gold coins, so many gold coins naturally not all hit the box, but one
Tickets can be exchanged for gold coins at a fixed exchange point.
"You"
Artimus looked at Reagan with an inquiring look in his eyes.
Thousands of gold coins, that's not a small amount of money.
Even if it is Yadimu, the net worth of the whole body at this moment is not enough to this number.
"Here are some of the profits I made during this time, about half of the profit figures, and some of them were entrusted to you by others."
Meeting Artemu's gaze, Reagan had a wry smile on his face, "You know, those people are very well-informed, and many people already know about my relationship with you."
"So they found you?"
Artim asked rhetorically.
"Yes."
Reagan nodded and said, "These people may not be anything to you, but to me they are all big shots, and I can't refuse their demands at all."
He smiled wryly and said, "And I have asked for them many times."
"You don't usually do things under my name, do you?"
Looking at Reagan like this, Artimus was a little speechless.
He suddenly had some doubts.
During his absence, Reagan wouldn't have used the name of Atemu on his lips anytime and anywhere to gain advantage, right?
"How so?"
Reagan smiled, "Just once, that time it really can't be helped."
"Those ordinary people don't have the right for me to mention you."
Artimus couldn't help but fall silent.
Looking at his friend in front of him, his mood suddenly became a little complicated.
Although the other party didn't say much, judging from the thousands of gold coins in front of him, the other party obviously didn't use his name to do things outside.
Of course, this came out of Reagan's mouth because he had no choice but to say it.
But is that really the case?
Artimu suddenly felt a little tired.
The main reason why he helped Reagan and rescued him from the academy in the first place, in addition to his past friendships, was because of the injustice he had suffered.
But in the blink of an eye, Reagan left the academy and indirectly caused injustice to others in this place by using the name of Artim.
Artimus fell silent, not knowing what to say.
"Keep the gold."
He suddenly felt a little tired, and said softly, "Remember to be careful in the future."
"Okay."
Reagan was a little puzzled by Artemu's sudden departure, but he nodded and said, "Will you come over next time?"
"Maybe."
"But that may be a long time later."
"If you have time, you can come to me."
He spoke, then turned silently and left.
Looking at Yadimu's back, Reagan behind him opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't speak.
It's only been a short time, and the two former friends have become strangers.
This is a dramatic change.
Leaving where Reagan was, Artimus walked forward.
His mood was still a little irritable.
At this time, he didn't have much to go, so he simply walked around.
He just wandered around and then came to a lively place.
Thump.
A child lunged straight at Artimu, quickly dodged after hitting him, and walked to the side.
"Be careful!"
A shout was heard.
On the street, a white horse suddenly went berserk and rushed forward, about to crash into the child.
The change in an instant made everyone stunned.
The child froze in place.
A hand stretched out and stopped the white horse at the critical moment, forcing the mad horse to stop
Get down.
Looking at the white horse in front of him, Yadimu glanced at it lightly.
The white horse, which had just gone berserk, immediately trembled in place.
Then he pulled Fang Cai's child away.
"Let's buy bread."
Taking back the wallet that had just been stolen by the child, Artimu casually gave him a few copper coins, and was about to turn around and leave.
Behind him, the boy looked at the back of Artimu in a daze, and at this moment his memory was still stuck in the scene just now.
The force of the mad horse is so great that even an adult strong man can be knocked out.
The man in front of him could easily hold it down with one hand.
This person. It's so strong
The thought flashed through his mind, thinking about his current situation, and then he couldn't help but grit his teeth and walk up.
With the plop, he knelt in front of Artim, where he kept kowtowing, "My lord, please save my sister."
Artimus continued to move forward, unmoved.
I was stealing money just now, and now I'm asking for help.
He's just good-tempered, not without a temper.
"Please, my lord, my sister is going to die."
The boy fell to his knees and cried bitterly, "She was caught by the Wolves, and if no one saved her, she would have her hands and feet cut off and sent out to beg, please save her!"
"I swear by Kayla's last name that I will be loyal to you as long as you are willing to save my sister."
Cut off hands and feet and send them to beg
Artimus paused.
"Your last name is Kayla?"
He turned and looked at the boy behind him, "Are you a half-elf?"
Kayla, this is a noble surname among the elves.
Among humans, this surname is used, and it is generally a half-elf.
Behind him, the boy knelt on the ground, and kept kowtowing there, and at this moment his head had been broken, and there was a pool of blood flowing on it, which looked very scary.
Seeing Adimu turn around, his face showed a look of ecstasy: "Yes, I heard from my parents that my ancestors were once elven nobles."
"My sister still has a piece of our ancestral treasure on her, as long as you are willing to save her, I am willing to give that thing to you, sir."
"Lead the way."
Yadimu nodded and said lightly.
The boy quickly got up and led Artim forward.
They walked all the way through the narrow streets.
Gradually, the surrounding bustling streets became narrow, and the surrounding roads became less and less good.
The buildings here and there are dilapidation and gradually become old.
Once here, the boy became cautious.
He led him to an abandoned church.
"Jaime, you're back so early, and it looks like you've had a good catch."
A rough man walked out of it, with a strong smell of alcohol, and looked at the boy in front of him and smiled, "Come and play with me."
He held out a hand and was about to grab the boy inside.
A hand stretched out and grabbed the big man's outstretched hand accurately.
The big man was stunned, looked ahead with a pair of red eyes, and then saw Yadimu.
Behind the boy, Yadimu had a grim face, standing there in a robe, his figure was extraordinarily straight, and his appearance was particularly wonderful.
Dahan's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he laughed and said, "Haha, you can be regarded as a good deed this time."
"It's rare to come across such a good product, so you can enjoy it."
He stretched out his hand and tried to grab Artim.
The next moment, with a soft bang, his whole person flew out directly, and was kicked away by Yadimu.
The doors of the abandoned church were opened.
A sour smell suddenly came in.
Artimus stepped inside.
He looked in front of him.
The extent of the abandoned church is large inside
There were probably five or six people sitting.
There were many children in the distance, both boys and girls, the older ones were as old as James, but they were only thirteen or fourteen years old, and the younger ones were only about seven or eight years old.
It's just infuriating that many of these children are disabled.
Some of the children had their arms bent, some had their feet cut off, and they had to lie on the ground like worms.
Yadimu looked at this scene and couldn't help but be silent.
Several big men surrounded him, and then quickly flew out.
"This gentleman. . . Did we have some misunderstanding?"
The leader here noticed that something was wrong, and immediately walked up cautiously, thinking that he had offended someone.
The next moment, his head fell to the ground.
Judging from the reactions of the people around him, this should be the leader of the so-called Wild Wolf Gang.
Killing the people, Yadimu's mood was a little better, and he walked out directly.
A small gang was simply solved, almost a hands-on affair.
But the aftermath is not so simple.
The Wolf Gang has brought in a group of children through various means.
Most of these children have been abducted, and they have already made a problem, and if nothing else, I am afraid that they will not be able to take care of themselves in the future.
Just leaving them alone is no different from killing them.
Artimus was silent for a moment, then called Reagan.
"Do something for me."
He looked at Reagan and said lightly, "Build a shelter here for me, and take care of these children who can't take care of them."
"Just use the money you were going to give me."
He said lightly, "No problem, right?"
"No problem, no problem."
Reagan nodded repeatedly.
He was worried that Artimu would not accept the money he had before, but he didn't expect that there would be a turning point now, so he was naturally quite willing.
As for these children, it doesn't cost much money at all.
Even the gold coins that Reagan had prepared to hand over to Artimus had been feeding these people for several lifetimes.
"If you can, let them do something to support themselves as much as they can."
Looking at Reagan's appearance, Artimu wanted to explain a few words, but after hesitating for a moment, he still didn't continue to speak.
He tried to turn away, but someone rushed out behind him.
"Your Excellency!"
Jaime walked out excitedly, holding a little girl in his hand, and knelt directly on the ground: "This is for you."
He brought something out.
It was a pale white shard, like a shard of some kind of metal.
An induction immediately emerged.
