The reason why Grimm chose the hill was that it was cheap here. One hundred gold coins could even buy a Manor with a Hill. The second reason was that it was very close to kassa city. Even if he used an ordinary carriage, it would only take two days to get there. A round trip would only take four days. It was far away from vegetables like radish. The third reason was that it was very remote. Under normal circumstances, no one would notice them. Even if someone did, it would be difficult to monitor them. This was because the mountain they were on was even worse than the iron Mountain where the castle was located. There was nothing on the mountain except for some stones. Standing on the manor, one could see the entire mountain clearly. There was no place to hide at all.
There were manors on the mountains near Kass city. These manors were either the resorts of the nobles or one of the sources of income for these manors. The transactions of these manors were very common, and no one would pay attention to them.
After Grimm bought the manor, he immediately went to Casar city. He wanted to find out what the situation was like in the city and what the Versailles family’s attitude was towards Zhao Hai, a black magician who had suddenly appeared.
Most importantly, he wanted to find a corner for Zhao Hai and the others in the city. They did not have much money left, with less than 50 gold coins. If they wanted to sell the radishes, they had to wait for Laura and the others to return.
However, although 50 gold coins might not be a small amount for a commoner, it was too little for them. In a big city like Kass, their consumption level was also very high. 50 gold coins might not last long.
Zhao Hai and the others were still walking slowly on the road. What was supposed to be a seven-day journey took them ten days. On the tenth day, they finally arrived at Kass city.
Zhao Hai didn’t enter the city directly. Instead, he stayed outside the city for a night. It was already dark when they arrived.
The others thought that Zhao Hai and the others did not want to enter the city because it was already dark. In fact, Zhao Hai and the others were waiting for Grimm here. Grimm was their first stop. When Grimm arrived, they would know how the arrangements in Kass city were going.
In the middle of the night, Grimm sneaked up to the Xenomorphs. Then, a crack in space appeared and Grimm entered the space. No one noticed this because space was not a part of magic. When he used it, there were no magical fluctuations. Therefore, the people who were watching Zhao Hai and the others did not notice.
Zhao Hai and the others were waiting for green in the medium. When they saw green enter, they immediately went up to him and said, ” “Grandpa Grimm, how is it?”
Green smiled. &Quot; don’t worry, young master. Everything has been arranged. I’ve bought a small Manor outside the city. We can stay there. When Laura returns, we can make a deal with her. &Quot;
Zhao Hai heaved a sigh of relief and nodded, ” &Quot; that’s good. Let’s go to the manor and settle down first. I want to go to Casar city to take a look in the next two days. &Quot;
Clint nodded his head and said, ” we should go to Casar city to take a look. These few days, I’ve noticed that the Versailles family seems to value us very much. Furthermore, there are more and more people in Casar city from all sides. It seems like they’re coming for us. We should show our faces. &Quot;
Green’s words sounded a little contradictory, but Merlin and the others understood what green meant. Now they were not afraid of people investigating Zhao Hai’s identity because it did not exist in the first place. He was a black magician who had suddenly appeared in the world. They were not afraid of letting those people investigate. They were afraid that those people would find out their identity as the Buda family. Thus, green wanted Zhao Hai to show himself in front of those people more to attract their attention.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, ” that’s good. I’m curious to see how they’ll treat me. However, there’s one thing that I’m still worried about. It’s the person behind Zhao Zui and the others. I’ve kept them in my interspace for more than ten days, but they haven’t contacted that organization for so long. Do you think they’ll suspect us? ”
&Quot; that’s very possible, ” grine nodded. &Quot; but we don’t have to be afraid of them. Instead, I want them to come and find us. As long as they come, we can find more clues from them. &Quot;
Grimm and the others had considered sending Zhao Zui and his team out to contact the organization behind them so that they would not be suspected. However, Grimm and his team were a little afraid. They were afraid that Zhao Zui and his team would be seen through by the organization. Their soul flames were originally green, but now they were red. Their bones were originally white, but now they were green. Originally, they would carry out the orders of the organization without any hesitation. But now, they were all following Zhao Hai’s lead. If this went on for a long time, the organization would definitely see through their flaws and it would be even more troublesome.
Therefore, green and the others decided to make Zhao Zui and the others disappear first. This way, even if the organization suspected Zhao Hai and the others, they would have no evidence. This might be for the best.
Zhao Hai nodded. &Quot; that’s good. Tomorrow, we’ll go to the manor and settle down. Once we’re settled, we’ll go to Casar city. &Quot;
Gerlyn nodded, but then he said with a troubled expression, ” “Young master, we can go to Kass city, but we can’t buy anything. I only have 50 gold coins left. This is not enough for us.”
Zhao Hai smiled wryly. There was really nothing they could do now. 50 gold coins were not even enough to buy the most ordinary oil press, let alone do anything else.
Fortunately, Grimm’s group had bought a lot of supplies and food, and they could not eat in a short time, so they did not have to worry about hunger.
Zhao Hai shook his head. &Quot; then we won’t buy anything. We’ll go to the city and take a look. Then, we’ll come back. When we’re here, we have to show our faces in the city and let those people know that we’re here. &Quot;
&Quot; alright, ” grine chuckled. &Quot; then we’ll take a walk around the city after we’ve settled down. I’d like to see how those people are going to deal with us. &Quot;
Zhao Hai smiled and did not say anything. He knew that green and the others had been living a very depressing life recently. The sudden annihilation of the Buda family had caught them off guard. In order to save Adam’s life, they had no choice but to lower their heads to the nobles. This was clearly not in line with green and the others ‘personalities.
It was even more so in the black soil wilderness. They were suffocated by the pressure of life every day. They didn’t dare to let others know their identity, because once others knew their identity, they would be finished.
However, it was different now. They now had another identity, and this identity allowed them to move around in the world openly. This also gave Grimm and the others a feeling of rebirth.
Although they knew that their current identity was not very popular with outsiders, this identity was much stronger than the Buda family’s identity. At least they would be able to walk around with this identity and would not be afraid of the old nobles dealing with them.
A person who couldn’t see the light for a long time, but suddenly one day, he could finally see the light and act in the open. This feeling really couldn’t be described with words.
Of course, Grimm and the others still remembered their identities as members of the Buda family. However, they also knew that their current performance would not be suspected by others. Sometimes, being too high-profile was also a kind of cover-up.
If they wanted to act in a high-profile manner, they naturally could not be sullen. Therefore, Grimm and the others were really looking forward to their future days. They must vent all the anger that they had been holding in in their hearts.
However, Merlin frowned and said,”young master, we’re acting in such a high-profile manner. How are we going to escape in the future?” After selling the radishes we have, we will buy some machines and return to the Black Earth wilderness. No matter what, that place is our root. But if we are too high-profile, will we be targeted by those guys when we return?”
Gerlyn smiled. &Quot; &Quot; don’t worry. After we’re done here, we’ll head to the Montenegro fortress. Then, we’ll hide in the woods and enter the boundless space for a few days. Even if those people turn the entire Iron Mountain upside down, they won’t be able to find us. By then, young master will ask Zhao Zui and the rest to lead the undead creatures to the blackearth wilderness and cause a ruckus. I don’t believe that those people won’t dare to look for us at the castle. We’ll return to the castle after the commotion has died down. &Quot; I guarantee there won’t be any problems.”
Zhao Hai and the others thought that this was a good idea. Zhao Hai had many undead creatures now. Although the dimension theory had added the intelligence of the undead creatures from the blackearth wilderness, those undead creatures hadn’t truly communicated with Zhao Hai. Even the aliens only followed Zhao Hai’s orders. Although they were better than before, they were like robots. They would do whatever Zhao Hai ordered them to do without speaking.
Zhao Zui and the others were different. They were human-shaped undead creatures, high-level undead creatures. Their intelligence was similar to when they were alive, so they could communicate with Zhao Hai easily. That was why Zhao Hai could ask them to lead the undead creatures to the blackdirt wastelands and cause a commotion so that outsiders wouldn’t dare to enter the blackdirt wastelands.
The people of the continent might not be afraid of the blackdirt wastelands, but they would definitely be afraid of the rotten corpse swamp. All the magical beasts and undead creatures in the blackdirt wastelands came from the rotten corpse swamp, so no one dared to easily touch the undead creatures and magical beasts that were active in the blackdirt wastelands.
Of course, if there were people who wanted to take a look at the castle, Zhao Hai would not mind letting Zhao Zui and the others take care of them. After all, Zhao Zui and the others were already level-six mages. Now that the bone armor had been strengthened, their combat strength had become even more powerful. In addition, Zhao Hai had more than a thousand undead creatures under his command. With such combat strength, even level-eight powerhouses like Grimm and Merlin would have to avoid them.
