As soon as he entered the crowd, Suojia untied the rope from Nico's body. The next thing was simple. In such an environment, Nico did not need Suojia's help at all. As long as he regained his freedom, she was better than Suojia.
It's ten times harder to catch her. Just trying to find her is an impossible task.
There was no way to go back to the hotel. Suojia and Nico made an appointment to meet outside the city. Then the two of them split up and rushed out of the city from different directions. Considering the scale of Lianyun City, they wanted to catch them out.
That is completely impossible. Don't forget, both Suojia and Nico are masters of stealth.
The journey was smooth. In the evening, Suojia finally met Nico at the appointed place. Then the two of them did not dare to stay and drove all night. It was not until noon the next day that the two of them had to stop to rest and have a meal. You know... Now Suojia
Jia Ke no longer dares to take magic potions to replenish his physical strength and energy. If he doesn't rest, he will be exhausted to death.
They ate dry food in silence, and neither of them spoke. Suojia didn't want to talk and had nothing to say, while Nico didn't know what to say. How could she thank someone for saving her life?
Woolen cloth?
Money? I don’t know anything else, but one thing is that Nico can conclude that Suojia is definitely very rich, the kind of super rich. People wouldn’t even bother to touch her small amount of money, but apart from money,
What else does she have to repay?
After thinking for a long time, Nico finally found out that the only thing she could do was to follow Suo Jia and explore the great trade routes. However, she had very important things to do and could not leave for the time being. It was impossible for her to agree to Suo Jia.
add.
After a long silence, Nico finally raised his head and whispered: "Lord Suojia, I am very grateful that you can save me this time, but please understand that even so, I still cannot go to the great trade route with you.
There is something that must be done, something that is more important than life!"
After a few clicks, he stuffed the food in his hand into his mouth, took a big gulp of water, and after flushing the food into his esophagus, Suojia said calmly: "I didn't save you because I wanted you to accompany me to the great trade route.
, we have been together for so long, I have already regarded you as a friend."
"What!" After hearing Suojia's words, Nico couldn't help but stood up in shock. He never expected that Suojia would say such a thing. It was so unexpected.
Patting the food remnants on his hands, Suojia said with a relaxed look: "As a friend, I am very curious, why do you go around stealing money? I know you are a thief and a treasure hunter, but if I remember correctly,
The so-called treasure is not in someone's home, but should be in the wild without an owner, right?"
Hearing Suojia's words, Nico couldn't help but flushed. Suojia was right. It's not that thieves can't steal things that belong to the owner, nor can they steal things and wallets in the city, but those who actually do these things,
That's called a thief, not a treasure hunter. Treasure hunters would never do such a dishonest thing.
Looking at Nico who was blushing with shame, Suojia continued: "Besides, even if you want to steal, you wouldn't be so bold as to steal the city lord's house, right? Isn't this like plucking hair from the tiger's mouth? Are you tired of living?"
Facing Suojia's doubts, Nico just lowered his head in shame and refused to say a word. In desperation, Suojia sighed: "If I guess correctly, you need money very much, is that right?
"
Facing Suojia's inquiry, Nico hesitated slightly, and finally nodded slightly and said: "That's right... I need money very much, a lot of money."
Frowning slightly, Suojia said doubtfully: "Although I don't know you well, in my opinion, you don't seem to be a person who is particularly obsessed with money. At least, you are not a miser. In this case,
What do you want so much money for?"
Facing Suojia's inquiry, Nico remained silent again, refusing to say a word. Looking at Nico's troubled expression, Suojia sighed helplessly and said: "As a friend, I just care about you. I hope you can
Help you, I hope you can talk about your difficulties, if possible, I will not stand idly by."
He suddenly raised his head and looked deeply at Suojia, but soon, Nico lowered his head sadly and shook his head: "No... thank you for your kindness. You can't help me. What I need is not a baby."
It’s just a little money, I need a lot of money.”
"Okay..." Nodding with a smile, Suojia said calmly: "Let's do this. As long as you tell us your difficulties, I will definitely try to help you. Believe me, I can do it!"
"You!" Nico raised his head in surprise and said in disbelief: "I know you have the ability to help me, but we are just ordinary friends. There is no reason for you to help me so much. I..."
Suddenly raising his hand to stop Nico from continuing, Suojia said decisively: "You don't understand me yet, so please don't use your logic to look at me. According to your logic, it's impossible to understand just the Tribulation Field, right?
, but did I do it differently?”
Hearing Suojia's words, Nico's eyes suddenly lit up. Yes... Although they are safe now, Nico knows that the danger of the robbery field is very high. Suojia can be said to have risked his life.
Danger came to save her. If Suojia was willing to give up his life, what else could he not give up?
After thinking about it, Nico finally made up his mind, nodded slightly and said: "Okay, since you must ask, then I will tell you, no matter whether you can help me or not, I will not blame you."
After taking a deep breath and sorting out his thoughts, Nico stated: "Although our Nico family is famous, it is just a name created by our ancestors. In fact, in recent generations, our family has gradually faded out.
It’s a ring of thieves.”
"Oh?" Looking at Nico curiously, Suojia said in confusion: "This shouldn't be the case. Your ancestors are so famous. There is no reason why you should not continue to engage in this old profession!"
Looking at Suojia calmly, Nico said calmly: "Maybe you find it difficult to understand, but everything is actually very normal. There is no other reason than that I just don't like it. My parents are more interested in power and don't like taking risks.
career."
He nodded clearly. Although this reason seemed far-fetched at first glance, in fact, it was the most important reason. If you don't like it, you won't want to do it. People always like to do what they like.
As treasure hunters, they can have endless wealth, but they can never be powerful. Since Nico's parents are keen on power, they naturally want to abandon their old profession.
While thinking, Nico continued: "You also know that as a family of treasure hunters, especially a family of treasure hunters as prestigious as ours, they are very rich. With money paving the way, my parents quickly became
Noble, and successfully entered the aristocratic circle."
"Well..." Nodding, Suojia knew that although money is not everything, there are indeed very few things that money cannot do. At the very least, becoming a noble is what money can achieve.
While thinking, Suojia said puzzledly: "Isn't this great? Now that you have become a noble and your family is so rich, how could you have fallen to the current situation?"
Hearing Suojia's words, Nico gritted his teeth bitterly and said: "Nobles are filthy things, and their greed can never be satisfied. After tasting the sweetness, they became more and more greedy, and they continued to
Just like mom and dad asking for wealth, until mom and dad are overwhelmed and refuse them, those so-called nobles finally show their shameless faces."
With tears in his eyes, Nico said sadly: "Driven by greed, my father and mother were framed, saying that they betrayed the country and surrendered to the enemy. All their family members were exiled and all their property was confiscated. That's not all. Greedy
The noble gentlemen thought that we must still have hidden treasures, so they let me out. They will only release my family if we raise 10 billion carats."
"Huh?" Looking at Nico in confusion, Suojia said in confusion: "Didn't you say that your parents are dead? Why are you saying that you can be released now?"
(Your one click warms my entire coding life. Log in to read literature together and support genuine literature.) Shaking his head slightly, Nico patiently replied: "That's right, my parents already had it ten years ago.
Passed away, you should know that those who betray the country and surrender to the enemy must be beheaded, and even their family members must be sent to the army. If it were not for me to dig out the so-called treasure of our family, even I would be a slave now.
There are slave soldiers.”
Having said this, Nico's face showed a soft expression, and he said in a low voice: "My parents are no longer here, but...my brother and two sisters are still there. I must collect 10 billion carats. They
Only then can I regain my freedom. For the sake of the Nico family, no matter what the cost, I must collect 10 billion farads to rescue them."
"Oh my God!" After hearing Nico's words, Suojia couldn't help but secretly exclaimed. This farad is the currency of the Kara Empire. One farad can be exchanged for two gold coins. In other words, Nico must collect 20 billion gold coins to rescue him.
brother and two sisters.
While thinking, Suojia asked with concern: "In that case, how much money have you collected in total in the past ten years?"
"Hey..." After sighing, Nico said with a wry smile: "Although, I have worked very hard to make money. As long as there is a lot of money to get, I will do any dangerous job, including the job of assassinating you.
It is also one of them, but even so, in the past ten years, I have only collected two billion carats, and I am still short of eight billion!"
He glanced at Nico with admiration. Although two billion carats was not a big sum of money in Suojia's eyes, he also knew that it was very difficult for an ordinary person to earn so much money, especially for Nico.
It is even more difficult to say.
Don't think that Suojia's money is so easy to earn. In fact, if the fourth prince was not secretly protecting him, Suojia would not be able to earn so much money. Even if he earns so much money, he will never be able to keep it.
Ke’s parents are the best example!
While thinking, Suojia raised his head in confusion, looked at Nico and said, "I don't understand, why don't you secretly rescue your younger brothers and sisters? Wouldn't this save you a lot of trouble?"
"Haha..." With a bitter smile, Nico shook his head and said: "Although those nobles are indeed greedy, they are definitely not lacking in wisdom. They are more cunning than foxes. They have been on guard against my move for a long time. They are in the hands of my younger brother.
My sister and I are both wearing slave collars, so it will be useless even if I rescue them."
"Slave collar!" Hearing Nico's words, Suojia couldn't help shouting in surprise. Suojia had seen this slave collar before. Many people in Shuguang's slave army were wearing this thing. Unless it was opened with a key,
Otherwise, no matter how far you run, once the key is destroyed, a poisonous needle will pop out of the collar and kill you instantly.
Nodding helplessly, Suojia thought for a while. In the past, he might not have been willing to spend so much money, but it is different now. For Suojia, Nico is really important. Having Nico
Being a guide is really a perfect fit. After all...she once had ten ancestors who successfully crossed the great trade route, and one of her ancestors once became one of the overlords on the great trade route. No one is more suitable than Nico.
.
Moreover, today, when he is about to embark on the great trade route, Suojia also knows very well that once he enters the great trade route, no one can guarantee that he can come out alive, and once he enters the great trade route, these gold coins will be with a pile of waste.
Just like iron, there is only one currency circulating on the great trade routes, and it cannot be exchanged.
Some people may say that even if it is not used now, it can be used when coming out of the great trade route in the future. In fact, this idea is stupid. Suojia is not going for fun. If he can come back from the great trade route
, then he must have become famous. At that time, why did he care about mere money? Even if he wanted to occupy a country, it would be easy.
Thinking of this, Suojia made a decisive decision, raised his head, looked at Nico and said: "So, as long as I am willing to pay the remaining money for you, you can go to the great trade route with me.
Is that so? ""What!" Hearing Suojia's words, Nico jumped up in shock and said in disbelief: "What did you just say? You said...do you want to help me pay back the remaining money?"
Smiling and nodding, Suojia took out two amethyst cards from his arms, threw them to Nico and said: "Here are 20 billion gold coins. You can exchange them for Kara, and then go and rescue your sister. I
Think...I need you!"
Holding the two amethyst cards tightly in his hand, Nikonan said incredulously: "Oh my God! You are really willing to help me! Am I not dreaming?"
Smiling and nodding, Suojia said: "Believe me, you are definitely not dreaming. Let's get started without further delay and get things done as soon as possible!"
"But..." Frowning, Nico said with difficulty: "But even if you want to help me, it won't cost you so much money. I have already paid back 2 billion carats. All you need is..."
Smiling and shaking his head, Suojia said calmly: "Don't forget, don't your younger brothers and sisters also need to spend money after they come out? Just leave the rest of the money to them."
Looking at Suojia deeply for a while... Nico said decisively: "Okay, I can't refuse your kindness. From now on, I, Nico, will sell my life to you!"
Smiling slightly, Suojia neither agreed nor objected to Nico's words. After so many things, Suojia no longer trusts people so easily. In this world, there is no such thing as loyalty. The so-called loyalty is just
The stakes for betrayal are too low. Suojia doesn't need much. He only needs Nico to take him to the great trade route. There, Suojia can improve his strength as quickly as possible and find his father at the same time.
.
Taking a deep breath, Suojia smiled and said: "Okay, okay, without further ado, you can leave now. I will continue walking along the way and go to the most luxurious inn in the next city to wait for you. You can come directly to me after you are done.
I'm ready."
"No!" Shaking his head with a smile, Nico said excitedly: "We don't need to separate, we just need to change the route a little and open up a little more road, because...my younger brother and sister are in the Kaya Empire.
Capital - Brent City."
Hearing what Nico said, Suojia was also overjoyed and urged Nico to get on the road quickly. In the next half month, the two of them rushed non-stop and finally arrived at Brent City, the capital of Kaya.
After checking in at the hotel in the city, Nico took the money and left the hotel excitedly. Suojia would wait in the hotel for a few days. When Nico finished handling everything, he would come back. At that time, they
Then you can head towards the great trade route!
In the next few days, Suojia stayed in his room to practice without leaving home, completely forgetting the time. With his concentrated practice, Suojia made very rapid progress. Every day, Suojia could clearly feel that he
The connection with the magical elements is more intimate and more coordinated.
Finally, on the evening of the third day, Nico returned to the hotel in a daze, entered Suojia's room without saying a word, and sat down on Suojia's bed, with a look of despair on his face.
