Sherkas City is a border city of the Gupta country.
However, because of its special geographical location, this city has always occupied the position of the second largest city in Gupta since the three kingdoms of Tianzhu were truly divided.
After all, the city named Shelkas is connected to three different countries.
Even if you look at the entire continent, there are very few such special locations.
To the northeast of Shelkas City, it is the Longtuo Empire, which has been domineering for tens of thousands of years, and to the east of Shelkas, it is the small Siam country that has long surrendered to Longtuo.
As for the more west side of Shelkas City, it is also the location closer to the center of the mainland. It is also the true center of the Peacock Empire... Now it still inherits the ancient name of the Peacock Kingdom!
Coupled with Gupta to which Shelkas City itself belongs, the four kingdoms all meet in the same place.
So the city named Shelkas is naturally a place where trade is extremely prosperous.
The caravans that come and go are constantly coming here from various countries, and after completing the transaction of items here, they each bring the new and exotic goods they purchased back to their own countries.
Countless horse-powered carriages shuttled through the avenues of Shelkas City like flowing water.
Among them, the richer large caravans are more often the size of dozens of horse-drawn carriages, which brings a huge circulation of goods to the city of Sherkas.
And with the exchanges of so many money and wealthy businessmen, the entertainment industry in Shelkas City is naturally more developed and prosperous than people would imagine.
Moreover, the Three Kingdoms of Tianzhu were actually all countries that recognized the existence of slavery.
Therefore, in addition to the ordinary wine shop and prostitutes, the more local-style pastimes in the city of Sherkas are all kinds of arenas where slaves are used to fight.
Even among all the arenas in the city of Sherkas, if they were to be divided into three, six or nine grades, the one that was in the first place... must be the well-known one!
The horror arena named "Death", its position in the city of Sherkas, is the undoubted industry leader.
Not only can they get terrifying beasts to fight, they can even let those strong who are official knights enter the arena without hesitating to lose their reputation.
Although the knight masters, naturally they would not be treated as slaves to fight.
But being able to see knights fighting hard is undoubtedly a sensory stimulation that almost everyone can hardly enjoy except for the academy exchange meeting.
…
"If I guessed correctly, my brother should be hiding in the death arena!"
A group of luxury caravans that had just entered the city in the early morning drove directly to the most expensive hotel in Shelkas City without hesitation, and decisively contracted an entire high-priced villa.
Although this luxury caravan is not so low-key, it even shows its magnanimity all the time.
But with countless batches of spies, both open and dark, disappearing into the shadows behind the caravan forever, no matter where the forces are, they finally understand... They are really not strong dragons that ordinary people can shake!
Merchants are actually the most prosperous existence.
So after seeing the strength of this luxury caravan, the surrounding businessmen naturally also clung to it, and even the Trade Covenant Branch of Shirkas City sent people to the invitation of the banquet.
However, it is clear that the caravan didn't want to care about anyone.
They just released the news in the evening, sending people to ask if there are enough good-looking fights in the arena in the city recently, and if there are, they will come to watch it in person.
Of course, the arena are extremely enthusiastic for such large and wealthy clients.
After all, the main source of income for each arena is actually the gambling game opened during the fight. The larger the amount of admission, the higher the rake of the arena organizers will be.
Even some of the arena itself still secretly sent people to counter-press the unpopular slaves, and then through the secret manipulation of the slaves, successfully swallowed the rich bet funds.
However, as the team of wealthy businessmen released the news, the rest of the arena hadn't even had time to reply, but the manager from a certain place had personally visited the villa contracted by the wealthy businessmen.
As long as this person has appeared, the rest of the arena naturally no longer holds any hope.
Because that manager... is also the principal of the leading death arena in the industry.
…
"If the distinguished guests are coming, we have prepared the best box tonight. And tonight's competitive event also includes a contest of middle-class knights and a fight between a newly captured monster and a slave."
The principal of the arena, standing outside the sand tent in the reception room in a formal manner, without squint, reporting the events that the arena will launch tonight.
The behind-the-scenes boss of this luxury caravan is said to be a woman of the imperial emperor Yang family.
Therefore, even if the other party is not willing to meet with him in person, the arena's owner did not feel the slightest dissatisfaction, and they still lined up the arena's highlights in an orderly manner.
When the other party heard it, it seemed that after all, he was quite satisfied with the attitude of the principal.
Gently waved his hand behind the curtain, and sent out a close-fitting female guard, stepped out of the curtain to reply to their decision to be there tonight.
The host of the arena smiled upon hearing the words, and did not stay too much, and had retired and left respectfully.
However, with the departure of the main player of the arena, the personal guard who had just appeared from the curtain and returned, has returned to the sand tent again.
Then he was equally respectful, and after saluting the two women behind him separately, did he continue to speak:
"His Royal Highness, Your Excellency the Thirteenth Seat. According to the agreement between my brother and me before separation, as long as he stays in the sight of people, he will definitely be spotted by the imperial guards. Instead, he will simply join the underground forces. In the dark nature of the underground forces themselves, they successfully avoided the imperial guards who did not want to entertain themselves at will."
The speaker at this time was obviously Qin Wulian who prioritized the meeting with the responder. And the two women in front of her are undoubtedly the imperial princess Su Tong and the school's thirteen Xi Luxi.
Regarding Su Mu who was trapped in the imperial capital, the three of them did not have any extra options.
But fortunately, on the side of the dark bard, the news that Su Mu was temporarily safe was also transmitted to Lu Xi's ears through some rather secret channels.
Even Lu Xi and Su Tong were a little moved by the determination that the dark bards showed up.
After all, things such as Moon Seed Poison and Twilight Grass are simply peerless orphans that are priceless, not to mention that they have put out so many at once, but only for Su Mu to escape the Ancestral Dragon Temple safely.
Therefore, the problem before the three of them now is to give priority to finding Qin Wudi who is hiding in many countries.
After all, the reason Su Mu returned to the imperial capital was undoubtedly to rescue Qin Wudi.
So under the premise of being unable to worry about Su Mu, it is natural to make sure of Qin Wudi's safety as the priority goal.
"It’s best if you can confirm it right away, but even if you confirm your identity, it’s best not to have any level of frontal contact. After all, according to the information we have previously known, the Empire has already sent a dragoon to hunt down in the future. . So rashly letting your brother leave the shelter of the underground forces is not a very wise choice."
Su Tong and Lu Xi certainly had no doubts about the message Qin Wudi left Qin Wulian.
However, the current situation is actually as Su Tong said.
The three of them living in a foreign country are obviously not suitable for being too presumptuous in the hostile Federation of Gupta. On the contrary, it is the empire that has been friends with Gupta since ancient times that has the confidence to be reckless.
"As long as you can confirm, I will immediately arrange for others to respond in secret. After that, we will meet your brother at the border of the Gupta country, and directly borrow the Peacock Kingdom, and continue to go directly to the Federation in the name of a trader."
"The city of Shelkas is only tens of miles away from the border of the Peacock Kingdom. As long as we can avoid the guards for a few hours, we will have completely disappeared from their surveillance."
When Su Tong said this, he even looked at a rectangle wrapped in linen cloth at hand.
Then he said with a certain tone, smiling:
"Furthermore, in terms of your brother's ability, he must have recovered from his injuries now. As long as we send Shuang to his hands again, how can ordinary guards stop him?"
"As for the imperial dragon knight... I have already made a plan to lure them away!" ()
