Chapter 907 - Who Do They Belong Too?
"I"m afraid it"s not a matter of streets.
You see, he went for a stroll outside the city... In the woods."
"_"
Forget it.
Why do they even bother getting worked up for that b.a.s.t.a.r.d?
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads wryly.
That boy"s head didn"t work right.
Meanwhile, the person whose head apparently had a few screws loose was currently strolling playfully within the woods.
His move greatly surprised the others since he basically drove them away after dropping him off on the highway at a very far distance away from the gates, which would take about an hour and a half on horseback.
He told them to enter the city without him while he went on a stroll alone.
He walked on the highway, kicked several stones, treated the very busy people on the roads before making a detour into the woods.
From there, he ran like lightning, climbed up a tree, and started jumped from tree to tree stealthily while going deep onto the forest.
Soon, he began hearing noises and squinted his eyes playfully.
Interesting.
Who exactly were they?
Earlier on, when the vehicles pa.s.sed by, he spotted someone"s face a little further away on the trees.
Instantly, he knew that the person was a watchman.
But the problem was, who did he belong to?
Was it Adrian and the rest, or was it an enemy?
Some things needed to be investigated A.S.A.P.
After all, the wedding is tomorrow.
It was his brother"s wedding, and he would never allow anyone to jeopardize it.
.
In truth, if not for his att.i.tude of constantly observing the roads, he would never have spotted the person.
Of course, some of his men would choose to be vigilant only when they were very close to the City.
But for him, ever since they pa.s.sed the last community on the map, he began observing since then.
And so after the vehicles advanced at a safe enough distance when he was sure that no enemy would be at sight, he wasted no time and left his entourage.
He used his heat vision/thermal imaging goggles and quickly took note of where the watchmen were before stealthily avoiding them while jumping from tree to tree.
Now, he had finally found their base.
Good
He perked up his ears and squinted his eyes amidst the thick bushes.
Luckily, summer literally ended a few days ago, and the leaves were still full on the thick ma.s.sive trees deep in the forest.
In short, one could say that the interior regions were very dark because the ma.s.sive trees had blocked out most of the sun"s rays.
So the place was slightly older and darker, making things way easier for him.
.
"System, amplify sound."
"That"s going to host you host."
"I know. Take what you want and amplify."
"No problem, host. But the host should note that for modification, the system charges per hour and nothing less. So even if the host uses only 10 minutes, then it has nothing to do with this system. What has been paid can never be refunded."
"Hmmm.
I expected nothing less."
"Host, why do I detect a trace of sarcasm from your tone?"
Landon sneered: "System, aren"t you just being paranoid?"
"This system is a string of heavenly data that can detect all frequencies of emotions from the host"s speeches.
The host should know that this system can never be wrong.
That"s why it"s useless for you to argue on this matter.
So if this system says that the host is being sarcastic, then the host is being sarcastic.
Case closed."
"_"
Landon had black lines on his face.
Even when trying to get revenge, he still ended up losing the silent battle.
A string of heavenly data, my a.s.s!
Data was data.
What was the heavenly part for?
Landon felt like he should"ve known better by now. But dammit, which man wouldn"t want to stand up for themselves?... especially after being closed all these years by this ridiculous system?
Sigh...
"Amplification On.
The host needs to focus on a particular corner, and the sound there would be amplified.
The host can also screen out what he would like to hear as well."
"Hmmm."
With that, Landon vigilantly observed the camp for 1 full hour before finally leaving.
He couldn"t help but chuckle.
In his eyes, his enemy was quite a pitiful one.
Who asked them to mess with him?
In short, forget about him... Who asked them to go against the sons and daughter of the heavens?
Were they crazy or something?
Their fate was truly an unfortunate one.
Oh well, c"est la vie!
.
Landon rushed towards the highway, spotted a few easy-going peasants on horseback and gave them 5 gold coins for one of their horses.
They took the money in shock and disbelief.
2 gold coins are equivalent to 50,000 silver coins!
And for them that earned about 300~400 a month, that was enough money for 8~10 months if they spent adequately.
Even their horses were bought for 800~2,000 max, so wasn"t this a tad bit too much?
It wasn"t like they got war stallions that cost 5,000~8,000 copper coins.
So, wasn"t 50,000 a lot?
Landon didn"t care and gave the family that much because he saw 3 children who were below the age of 5 that seemed to need proper care.
The youngest was even sick.
He was stupidity rich, so if he saw someone in need, why not help out?
Of course, he discreetly gave them the money, lest someone tried to rob them later on.
He currently disguised himself to look broke as well so as not to pull attention to himself.
"Thank you, kind sir.
We already spent our monthly allowances on other things, and the boy"s fever cane at such an untimely moment.
But this is more than enough to buy Advil to cool down his temperature and good baby food and clothes to keep the child sound."
The young 27-year-old man and his wife looked at Landon gratefully.
As young parents who were somewhat new at this, they truly made a few bad choices while figuring things out.
Now, they didn"t have any more money and were currently going to squat at the man"s brother"s house until they got back on their feet.
But unexpectedly, a miracle had come their way.
Landon looked at them and smiled: "it"s nothing. As they say, when the heavens close one for they will always open another. Just stay true to yourselves, do good, and blessings will follow after every struggle. It might take longer than others, but it will always come."
"Yes!" The man said with teary red eyes.
After suffering for one whole year in another town, the heavens had finally blessed him.
Could this be a sign telling him to continue doing good?
Landon, who had once again turned into a helper from heaven, rode off towards the Capital with a broader smile on his face.
It was time to see his brothers.
Yes, William and the right should be there too, right?
As for the enemy, he placed trackers on a few of them.
So he could watch from the palace.
Nonetheless, who was that Prince Skye guy?
Who dared to take his brother"s wife?
Heh.
No doubt about it.
A storm was brewing.
