Chapter 270: The Godly Messenger’s Magic Card (Part 2)

Unable to monitor, Farca feels comfortable moving freely. He sees that there are only a hundred thousand people in the city, but their business is very prosperous. Most of the people who moved from Phoenix were wealthy nobles and merchants.

Although the taxes in Metattering City are complicated, the actual tax rate is very low, and any business can make a profit. Moreover, many of the things provided here are difficult to buy in other cities. Even Qin Yin's garrison in Phoenix also noticed the existence of Metattering City.

Because of the tacit consent of Holy Rock City and the remote location, the Phoenix garrison had no intention of attacking, but instead sent a caravan to purchase magic cores and wood.

After Salin left, Daniel organized manpower to hunt on the sea, and the supply of magic cores was sufficient. He had two warships. Although the warships used a lot of magic cores to hunt, the sea was rich in resources and every time he went to sea, he had a large amount of money. With the magic cores left by Salin, Metatlin City has become a well-known commercial city.

If Farka did not appear from the north of the city, but was at the West Gate, there would not even be a patrol team to interrogate.

Farka's feet looked slow, but he quickly turned around Metatlin City. He did not harass the core of the city, and there were more skeleton soldiers there. What made Farka strange was that the people in the city were not afraid of skeleton soldiers. For people like mages, skeleton soldiers are of course a miscellaneous army, and they can be picked up at will, but ordinary people are not afraid of skeletons, which is a bit weird.

He also felt the breath of the three kings. Although he was not afraid, he came not to destroy Metatlin City, but to have other intentions. So he regarded himself as a second-level magician and waited patiently for Salin to return in the city.

On this day, when the French Card saw several carapaces of monsters in the sea in a shop east of the city, I found it interesting and wanted to buy them. This thing is useless to put it in others. After all, the number is too small, but French Card has its own refining method and can make small weapons.

While discussing the price with the client, someone rushed in outside the door, with blood on his face and a ragged face. The man entered the store and picked up a long sword on the shelf, with a ferocious face. At this time, dozens of patrol soldiers had blocked the door of the store.

Faka could see at a glance that this man was already at the level of a junior swordsman. With a long sword in his hand, he had a strong aura. The soldiers outside the door were all at the level of swordsman. Seeing that this man had weapons, they took out their crossbows, but they were afraid of hurting the customers and the servants in the store, so they did not rushed in immediately.

The guy who talked about the price with Faka calmly looked at Faka and retreated into the counter. The escapee holding a long sword glanced at Faka and was shocked. There was a magician here! He also lost the idea of ​​taking the hostage.

"Why are the people outside chasing you?" Faka asked the man without any trouble. The man was stunned, obviously not understanding Faka's words.

Faka spoke Qin Yin, with a Skochenya accent. The man obviously didn't understand it at all. He held the long sword in his hand and looked panicked.

Seeing this man's expression, Faka had no suspicion. He had now figured out that in Metatrium City, as long as you are not close to the core area, it is actually very relaxed, and the person who monitors himself will have been withdrawn long ago. Metatrium City developed according to a commercial city, and there is no need to test it again for a second-level mage. Otherwise, the city will have more populations in the future, so how many spies will be needed to complete such a huge surveillance task?

"Mr. Mage, save me!" The hunted man spoke, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke in a strange common language.

Although the common language comes from Meers, the difference is huge and has nothing to do with Gumeers. Fortunately, Farka is knowledgeable and although this person has a heavy accent, he can quickly understand it with his calculation ability. It is just a change in the scale. Magicians are good at this, let alone magicians who focus on spiritual cultivation.

Farka glanced at the huge glass window of the shop. Outside the window, more soldiers were gathering, and even an additional magic apprentice with more than a dozen skeleton soldiers. Although the combat effectiveness of the skeleton soldiers is not strong, it is only for large-scale battlefields. In this kind of capture operation, the skeleton soldiers are not afraid of swords and can control the enemy tightly with their bodies. It is no big deal to lose it.

Farka walked out of the shop and waved to the leader of the soldier. The leader was a senior swordsman, very young. He turned out to be a private soldier from a noble family. Later, the noble defected to Rex and moved his family to Metatlin City. He didn't need to raise some soldiers. About half of the private soldiers were bought by Rex for money.

The captain of the soldier was well-trained. After seeing Farka's clothes, he did not dare to neglect. He walked forward a few steps and saluted at Farka, saying, "Master, that man is an escaped slave, please do not interfere."

Faka frowned and said, "I heard that Qin Yin forbids slaves from buying and selling."

Faka is right. The Qin Yin Empire prohibits slave trading. Although the Metatlin City is not Qin Yin's territory, it can be dependent on Kushui County. The laws of Kushui County are not different from Qin Yin, and slave trading should not occur here. Faka itself also hates slave system because the beliefs of slaves are not pure enough. Once they are free, they are more likely to betray the gods than ordinary people.

The Holy See allowed the Dongulas Empire to have slaves, which was essentially to weaken the power of the Dongulas Empire so that the Holy See could fully develop. However, it does not mean that slavery is beneficial to the Holy See. In the long run, slavery must be eliminated, otherwise the Holy See will encounter a bottleneck of development and will never be able to expand.

In the past two years, the war between the Tanggulas Empire and Qin Yin has fully reflected this point. Often, tens of thousands of slave soldiers will be defeated by a flag regiment of Qin Yin, and may even implicate the elite troops commanding these slaves. Qin Yin basically invested in local troops in Jialulan, and his combat effectiveness is far less than that of Qin Yin's Royal Swordsman Camp. Even so, the battle situation in Jialulan is still stalemate and cannot completely open up the situation.

How could Qin Yin, who opposed the slavery system, have experienced slave trading?

"Master, this person is not a Meles." The soldier also looked a little ashamed, but he still patiently explained to Faka.

Faka immediately understood that Holy Rock City had created war puppets and had already known that he had destroyed the East China Sea coalition. The millions of troops of the East China Sea coalition did not resist the troops of Holy Rock City. After several major battles, the East China Sea coalition had more than 200,000 captured soldiers. These prisoners, according to the laws of the Qinin Empire, could indeed be bought and sold.

Because they were not from the Meers continent, Qin Yin was already very kind to the foreign invaders.

"Master, please save me. I don't want to go to mining. I am willing to be your follower!" The East China Sea Alliance prisoner in the shop shouted loudly.

Faka smiled and said, "How much can I buy this person?"

The soldier looked embarrassed and said, "Master, there was not much money, but he ran away and injured several of us soldiers. If you are from Qin Yin, it would be very troublesome to buy it."

"I am a Skochenya." Faka said calmly.

"Then you need a deposit of one thousand gold coins. If he does not cause any trouble to our country within a year, he can only return you five hundred gold coins. It's not worth it." This soldier persuaded the Farka out of kindness. It's really too expensive to buy a junior swordsman with more than one thousand gold coins. Generally speaking, gold coins are still very important for low-level mages.

"Where can I sign the purchase contract?" Of course, Farka didn't care about a thousand gold coins. He heard from the swordsman that he wanted to ask for details before he wanted to go to mining. And he was also interested in learning about the East China Sea Alliance. The Holy Seen by Farka, it was a huge mistake.

If the fleet like Yunliu could be developed, the Holy See would have expanded to the entire continent long ago.

"Then... Master, please follow me to the town hall." The soldier had already persuaded him, and when he saw that Faka was determined to act, he was too lazy to talk about it. The mages were all strange people, and who knew what they were thinking.

Faka successfully bought the swordsman and spent more than 1,200 gold coins, including a deposit of 1,000 gold coins. This deposit is basically difficult to refund.

Faka brought the sword master back to his residence, signed a follower contract with the sword master, and then asked.

After asking, Farka was a little disappointed. Although the swordsman was a personal guard officer of a king in the East China Sea, that country was too small to even build a large ship by itself. However, the situation in the East China Sea was very popular with Farka. Hundreds of countries were scattered on more than 3,000 islands, and that kind of place was suitable for missionary preaching.

During this expedition, the energy of the countries in the East China Sea was greatly damaged. If the Holy See could take advantage of the situation, it would definitely gain a large number of believers immediately.

The only troublesome thing is that the countries in the East China Sea also have faith. They believe in not gods, but a royal family, which is said to be the nobles of the First Dynasty. They migrated to the East China Sea island country and established a unified empire. However, the empire did not live long and then split. Later emperors and kings nominally regarded this family as spiritual leaders.

Faka thought about it in his mind and thought it was still feasible. If this family was really strong, how could it lead to the collapse of the dynasty he established?

The matter of the mine is simple. There are many mines in the land north of Metatlin City. The people from the Inquisition have also visited the survey, but they have not taken it seriously because they are too far away. Metatlin City announced that they have ownership of these mines, but allowed aristocrats and merchants to invest and mine.

Although the Phoenix nobles escaped here, the process of escape was not urgent. They all carried all their property and were rich. The only thing they lacked was manpower.

Elaine specially organized men to buy a large number of prisoners in Lianyun City, and then reselled them to investors in these mines and sent them to mining further north.

In the absence of large-scale mining machinery, this method is also the fastest way to make profits.

After hearing the sword master's description, Faka thought about it and did not kill the sword master. After all, he bought it for more than a thousand gold coins, so it would be better to stay by his side to run errands. This time he came alone to discuss some deals with Salin and the fight and killing matters, so he handed it over to the Cardinal and the Court of Referees.
