Lumba City is a big city with a population of nearly 20,000. It is located in the White Horse Plain in the west of the Storm Kingdom.

On the plain, Devin was still holding the horse, sitting on the horse's back, and quickly heading towards the city of Rumba.

After crossing a low earth slope, the view ahead suddenly became extremely wide and they had already reached the hinterland of the White Horse Plain.

Devin looked at the endless plains and couldn't help but sigh: "It's so rich here."

There are countless fertile fields on the plain, and among the fields, there are many tall castles, beautiful manors, and a large number of farms.

A huge black shadow lay farther away.

With Devin's eyesight, he could see clearly that it was a big city surrounded by a tall city wall. The buildings in the city were beautiful, a hundred times more exquisite and spectacular than Vito Town.

In the middle of the city is an extremely spectacular castle, which should be Baron Heimer's mansion.

In addition to the castle, three towering towers are also exposed in the city.

One of them is a golden dome tower, the leader of Qunlun, this style is German, and it is the cathedral of the city of Rumba.

The other two are spire-topped, with a simple and elegant color, one is blue and the other is white. This must be the so-called mage tower.

Devin sighed. It was indeed a big city. Compared with this, Vito Town is like an ant in front of an elephant.

Eliza had a different opinion, and she smiled and said, "Baron Heimer is just a little lord. He is the only one in this area, but he is not worth mentioning it when it comes to the entire Storm Kingdom."

She reached out and drew a circle in the air in front of her, saying, "The capital of the kingdom, Storm, is surrounded by the walls of light, which is the same area as this entire plain, with a population of more than 100,000. That is the real big city."

After a night of trekking, her cold attitude had eased a lot, and she no longer had the cold words she kept from thousands of miles away as she had at the beginning.

Devin said strangely: "But I saw in the book that the capital of the Glorious Empire has a population of nearly one million. In comparison, Storm is nothing more than that."

Eliza looked back at Devin and said in praise: "I didn't expect you to be literate, it's good. But the Empire of Glory had disintegrated ten years ago. Its capital, Kensburg, experienced another terrible massacre, and its glory had already ended."

This great empire disintegrated, and more than a dozen countries emerged. The Storm Kingdom was one of them. It turned out to be just a province of the empire in the west.

The king of the Storm Kingdom was originally just a marquis under the rule of the Glorious Empire. After the disintegration of the empire, he directly proclaimed himself king.

"What's going on with those two tall towers?" Devin pointed to the tall tower in the city and asked humbly.

"The white tower belongs to Warren, the second-level flame combat mage. He is the envoy of the kingdom. His fire spell is extremely powerful. With a move of the staff, he can burn people hundreds of meters away to ashes."

Speaking of this, Eliza's face was a little awe.

"Fighting Mage?" Devin asked. He found that he could hear fresh nouns at all times when he stayed with this woman.

"Like elemental warriors, they are also elemental users, but they are more flexible and changeable in their use of elements and have a very knowledgeable group of people. A combat mage may kill a group of elemental warriors of the same level, but the latter is basically unable to do the same thing."

Devin sighed inwardly, and immediately added a lot of awe to the mage. He had an instinctive respect for those who had mastered profound knowledge.

For example, his current attitude towards Eliza can be called humble, although he can easily kill her.

It is precisely this respect that made Eliza slowly let go of the grudge in her heart.

"So, what about the blue one in that seat?" Devin asked again.

"Blue belongs to the Heimer family, and there is also an alchemist living there. His level is not very good, but he can refine elemental fire. He will take half of the credit for the Heimer family."

"Is the elemental fire refined?" Devin said in surprise. He always thought it was just a spell.

He felt that the knowledge he had obtained from the book he read was not enough, and in front of this woman, he could be said to be ignorant.

"It's indeed an alchemy product. But he can only refine the first-level fire. The elemental warriors produced are difficult to break through the second level, and they are not much stronger. So I said Heimer is just a little lord." Eliza smiled slightly.

Devin opened his mouth, but couldn't speak.

He always regarded the Baron as an unattainable existence, but Eliza's words made the Baron fade away the halo of noble and mysteriousness.

In Dewen's mind, the world has become vast and bright, and the layers have become clear.

The two of them walked while talking, and they all reached a fork in the road less than a mile outside the city of Lumba.

There are two paths leading to different directions.

When Devin was about to walk the road to Rumba City, Eliza shouted: "Stop!"

"What's wrong?" Devin asked.

Eliza said: "These two roads. The one on the left leads to the city of Rumba, and the one on the right leads to the other city of York on the White Horse Plain. The lord is Baron Shulai."

German knows this.

She looked at Devin and said, "There is a big river on the plain called 'Philolos'. It separates the territory of the two barons. There is only a stone bridge on the river. The cars and horses on the bridge and the ships passing by the bridge are taxable. They can earn 1,500 gold coins a year, and they are cash."

"The two lords are fighting for control of the bridge?" Devin asked.

One thousand five hundred gold coins were a huge sum that he could not even imagine. I guess even these two lords could not ignore it, right?

Eliza pursed her lips and smiled: "Because of that bridge, the two lords have been disliked each other for a long time, and have been secretly trashing and trying every means to increase their tax share."

As she said that, she gave two choices: "You have two ways to choose. Go to Baron Shulai because of your archery, because you killed Heimer's knight, and you will definitely be protected by him. This road is much safer than going to Rumba City."

"What about my crime?" Devin was concerned about this. He didn't want to be kept in mind.

"Shule can help you kill the priest. But unless Baron Heimer is not pursued, you have to keep your back. You will become a thorn in Baron Heimer's side. In order to maintain his authority as a lord, he will issue an assassination reward against you, and the villagers of Vito will be implicated."

Eliza calmly spoke out the consequences.

Assassination is nothing, but when Devin heard that he might implicate Vito, he immediately gave up the road in his heart.

He pulled the reins and resolutely embarked on the road to Rumba City.

Seeing that he made a choice, Eliza smiled softly and began to elaborate her plan: "The crime of killing a nobleman is extremely serious and difficult to forgive. Even if you are very talented, if you ask for forgiveness directly, the chance of success is very small. The biggest possibility is that you will be hanged directly."

"So, I have to solve some trouble for the Baron, prove my ability and increase my weight, right?"

Devin was very smart and immediately understood Eliza's thoughts.

"Yes, the Baron will never be short of trouble. You can find out whatever you want when you go to the city. The next thing will be up to you." Eliza said.

Devin was shocked, turned to look at the woman on the horse's back and asked, "What about you?"

"Me? Are you still expecting me to fight for you? Then you might as well expect pies to fall from the sky." The woman asked back.

"I'm asking, where are you going after I get rid of the charge?" Devin patted his forehead, knowing that she had misunderstood.

Eliza said casually: "Of course it's following you, who made you ruin my chastity. If you don't want me to follow me, give me ten gold coins so that I can make my home in the city."

Originally, she had a big mansion in Lumba City. But now, the mansion has been sold by her bastard brother.
