Chapter 313: 313, Special Bond_1

Standing shoulder to shoulder in the sky above Thornflower City, the capital of Lu Man kingdom, Su Yu and Tina looked straight at the King of Lu Man, Jesse III.

Jesse III faced the strong figures of the Goldfinch Empire and the Federal Hills, feeling the terrifying aura from legends such as Roland and Cecilia, he couldn’t help but gulp.

Finally, he sighed, lowered his proud head, and raised his hands in a military salute. “Your Excellency Nemesis, Ms. Tina Garcia, I surrender, I am willing to sign the agreement with you.”

Hearing the words of the King of Lu Man, the long-awaited players started to stride towards the royal palace of Lu Man.

The NPC soldiers of the Lu Man Royal Palace dared not stop them, lowering their heads to clear the way for the players.

Tina glanced at the submissive King of Lu Man and smiled, “This is your punishment for surrendering to Catter! Remember, you must always stand with the Goldfinch Royal Family in the future, otherwise, next time we won’t just confiscate your property, your royal family will also become history! Do you understand?”

“Understood, understood.” The King of Lu Man nodded repeatedly, without the pride he had when he first met Tina.

“I’d like to add something.” Su Yu suddenly spoke up.

Moreover, he used his magic to cover his voice throughout the entire Lu Man capital: “One important part of our agreement is that civilian taxes cannot be increased in the next ten years, and civilian properties must not be plundered. You must always remember this clearly!”

“Why?” The King of Lu Man was very unhappy: “Taxing my people is my freedom, interfering with our national tax rates is interference in our domestic affairs! According to the previous ‘Eleven Country Convention’…”

Su Yu interrupted him: “We are doing this to give you a hard time and to help you learn a lesson! You can’t shift your losses onto the civilians through taxes.”

Su Yu then said loudly to all the civilians in the city: “Remember! If the tax officials of the kingdom forcibly increase taxes, you can pass the message to the Princess through Goldfinch City.”

“If the situation is true, we will return like lightning to help you deal with these villains!”

Hearing Su Yu’s words, several players began to sing “You Will Return Like Lightning,” as if striving to embolden Su Yu.

The civilians inside the city dared not respond to Su Yu, but they all wore smiles on their faces, and their eyes were filled with gratitude when they looked at Su Yu.

Su Yu has a very high reputation among civilians on the western continent during this time. All civilians in the western continent knew that Su Yu only confiscated the property of the nobles and never looted civilians.

Moreover, every time Su Yu arrived in a place, he would emphasize to the local royals and nobles that they should not arbitrarily tax the civilians, so the civilians of the western continent universally respected him.

Of course, they couldn’t say it out loud, and they didn’t dare to show it in their actions, but their deep admiration is evident from their expressions.

Knowing that things couldn’t be changed, the King of Lu Man sighed again and accepted the reality.

The Kingdom of Lu Man was the final stop on Su Yu’s and Tina’s western journey.

After the players ransacked the Lu Man Royal Palace, they could return to report to the princess.

After signing the agreement with the King of Lu Man and leaving the palace, Tina couldn’t help but stretch, saying to Su Yu beside her, “It’s finally over! Nemesis, can we go home now?”

“Almost.” Su Yu nodded: “Once we clean out this palace, we can return to Goldfinch City through Antondidas’ teleportation array.”

“Time flies by so fast, three months have passed before I knew it.” Tina sighed.

Then her eyes lit up, she turned to look at Su Yu, “Nemesis, while we have some leisure time, why don’t we go for a walk on the outskirts of the city! I saw a place with especially beautiful scenery on our way over!”

“Well…” Su Yu hesitated. He still had to receive the spoils of war seized by the players, so it was best not to leave.

But then Tina grabbed his sleeve, “Let’s go! If we miss this chance, we won’t have another opportunity later!”

Without saying a word, Tina took Su Yu and flew towards the west side of the city.

Su Yu, as a mage, did not resist the fragile frame of Tina’s drag (and he didn’t want to resist), and was taken out of the Lu Man Royal Capital.

Thirty kilometers southwest of the Kingdom of Lu Man, there is a waterfall about 20 meters high.

The water from the waterfall fell down the steep rock wall, smashing into the large lake below, splashing out thousands of silver flowers, it looks exceptionally beautiful!

Tina lay comfortably on the grass beside the waterfall, chewing on a straw.

Su Yu lay next to Tina, relaxed and looking at the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Both were silent, enjoying the leisure time after the busy period.

After a long while.

Just as Su Yu was about to close his eyes and fall asleep, Tina suddenly turned to look at him, “Nemesis, how much worth of spiritual energy coins have you received so far?”

Su Yu looked at the numbers in the mission log, and replied, “It is 217 billion now, and after adding the numbers from the Lu Man Royal Palace, the overall number should be able to reach about 230 billion!”

“230 billion, that’s not small!” Tina nodded happily: “Plus the approximately 100 billion in spoils that I’ve won, this wealth is enough to resolve our domestic fiscal deficit, and we even have leftovers! The princess will be very happy when she knows, won’t she?”

“That is certain!” Su Yu smiled, and following Tina’s example, he also picked up a straw and chewed it in his mouth.

After a while, Su Yu turned to look at Tina, “Tina, I have something to ask you.”

Tina: “Go ahead.”

Su Yu: “…I wanted to ask, why are you so loyal to the royal family?”

“Amass an army to seize power and rule as king?” A thoughtful look crossed Tina’s face, as if she was somewhat tempted.

Su Yu:

“Just kidding.” Tina sat up and patted Su Yu on the shoulder, “The reason I’ve never had any ulterior motives is because there is a special bond between our family and the Goldfinch family.”

“A special bond? What bond?” Su Yu asked curiously.

Tina shook her head and put her index finger to Su Yu’s lips, “I can’t tell you, but I can say this – if Alyssa wasn’t a princess but a prince, I might have had to marry her and couldn’t be with you.”

“Ah, ok…”

Su Yu imagined what Alyssa would look like as a boy, and his facial expression turned into the “old man, subway, mobile phone” meme facial expression.

Thank god Alyssa isn’t a boy, otherwise raising the favorability of a boy to full… that would be a big problem!
