With the help of the dark creatures, it only took half a day to complete the task of cutting down trees and weaving wooden rafts under Han Shuo's command.
Five wooden rafts and a dozen or so wooden oars were carried into the water by the skeletal warriors. Everyone boarded the wooden rafts after the thirteen sacks had been placed on the rafts, holding the oars in their hands and starting to move along the Nirolan River.
Han Shuo, Fanny, and Lisa stayed on a wooden raft. Fanny summoned a zombie warrior and had the zombie warrior row the oars. Han Shuo and the other two sat leisurely on the sturdy wooden raft, admiring the scenery along the Nirolan River.
It was already evening, and the clouds of sunset dyed the sky. The azure waters of the Nirolan River were calm, and a few bold fish leapt to the surface, drawing silver lines across the surface of the water. The branches and leaves of the towering trees in the distance were lush, and a few unknown insects chirped cheerfully, giving everyone a sense of tranquility and peace.
As Fanny and Lisa chatted and laughed softly as they admired the beautiful scenery around them, Han Shuo sat cross legged on the wooden raft and closed his eyes, silently training his magical yuan. He didn't waste a single moment of free time to forge his physical body and continuously open up the meridians within his body.
Fanny and Lisa originally had a stomach full of questions they wanted to ask Han Shuo, but when they discovered that Han Shuo had his eyes closed and wasn't speaking, they didn't make a sound to disturb him. Instead, they sighed with emotion at Han Shuo's diligence, thinking that it was no wonder that Han Shuo had improved so quickly. The two's beautiful eyes would gather on Han Shuo from time to time, whispering to each other about something. It looked like their topics definitely included Han Shuo.
After a long period of silence, Han Shuo suddenly opened his eyes and looked around when he felt the wooden raft shake. He discovered that the wooden raft had already crossed the Nirolan River and had arrived in a thicket of lush vegetation.
Fanny and Lisa happily commanded the dark creatures to bring the spoils of war from the wooden raft to the shore. When Zeon and the others had all gathered, everyone cheered and used their mental strength to command the dark creatures. After identifying the direction, they began to hurry towards Balthazar City.
After walking like this for two days, the party finally arrived at Balthazar City. After arriving at Balthazar City, the first thing they did was find a large hotel, where they immediately began to bathe and change their clothes. After a hearty meal, they had a beautiful night's rest.
Now, Han Shuo's treatment was completely different from when he'd gone to the Dark Forest. He could enjoy honorable service as a matter of course, and even had a room to himself. Even the transportation of supplies to the hotel's specialized storeroom was done by everyone themselves. No one dared to let Han Shuo do it alone.
The next day, early in the morning.
"Dong Dong Dong" Fanny lived next to Han Shuo. After Han Shuo got up early in the morning, he stood in front of Fanny's door and knocked on it.
"Who is it?" Fanny's lazy voice came from the room.
"It's me," Han Shuo replied.
"Oh, wait a moment. I'll wash up and open the door for you."
After a while, Fanny opened the door, wearing a thin, white silk robe. The soft robe accentuated the curves of Fanny's slender and voluptuous figure. Her hair was disheveled as she flicked a lazy glance at Han Shuo and moved to the side to let Han Shuo in. She asked, "What are you doing here so early in the morning?"
Staring greedily at Fanny a few times, Han Shuo walked to the round table and sat down after closing the door. He then said with a smile, "Master Fanny, I thought about it last night and felt that these supplies were too conspicuous in my hands. I wanted to discuss how to deal with them."
"Mm, it's good to deal with these supplies as soon as possible. We're not merchants, we can't always bring these things back to the Academy. But these things all come from the town of Drol. If someone discovers them, not only will we not get the gold coins, but we'll also be in trouble. What should we do? "Fanny's eyebrows creased slightly as she thought for a moment.
"If we have a space ring, then we can solve this problem. Master Fanny, although space rings are precious, there should be a price. How many gold coins would a space ring with a smaller space be worth? "
"Space rings can usually only be refined by space archmages. The materials used to refine space rings are also very valuable, so space rings are very expensive. Even a space ring of a lower quality would cost at least one or two thousand gold coins. This isn't something that just anyone can afford, so don't let your imagination run wild. "
"Master Fanny, you're an adept mage, and many of the necromancy students come from noble families. Why don't you have a space ring?"
"Heh heh, although I'm an adept mage, I rarely leave the Babylon Academy of Magic and Force. My annual income is only a few hundred gold coins, where would I have the extra money to buy a space ring? The necromancy major is the weakest major. If these students came from great nobles, they wouldn't have chosen to study in the necromancy major. They haven't even graduated, so why would their families buy space rings for them? "
Han Shuo nodded his head after Fanny's explanation, more or less understanding. It looked like the necromancy students and teachers were all poor bastards. No wonder they were all so excited when faced with this batch of supplies.
"So that's how it is. A space ring costs one or two thousand gold coins. Heh heh, it looks like I should get a space ring first." Han Shuo thought of the two thousand gold coins in his crystal card and rubbed his chin in thought, speaking pensively.
Rolling her eyes at Han Shuo, Fanny said exasperatedly, "You're just an errand slave, how would you have any gold coins? If you were that rich, would you have sold yourself and worked as an errand slave in the necromancy major for six years?"
Chuckling, Han Shuo said, "Times have changed. Who says I'll always be poor? Don't worry, I have a way to get a space ring."
At this point, under Fanny's astonished gaze, Han Shuo sneakily looked left and right and fished out an agate necklace with a ruby embedded in it. This necklace sparkled with a faint red light, and the ruby was translucent and was obviously a very valuable gem.
"Master Fanny, this is for you!" Han Shuo laughed lowly when he saw Fanny look at the necklace in his hand with infatuation and handed the necklace to Fanny.
She was first overjoyed, and then Fanny's face flushed red. She reacted and hastily refused, "I, I can't take it. Oh right, where did you get this from? "
"Of course I got it from the orc wolf riders' pockets. My eyes and hands were quick and I saw a red light flashing in one of the pockets. That's how I found this ruby agate necklace. I thought that a beautiful person like Master Fanny would be able to set off your beauty even more if you wore this necklace. So I put it away just for you. "Han Shuo's expression was normal as he said faintly.
"This thing is too valuable, I can't take it. You should keep it for yourself!" Fanny's beautiful face flushed red as her bright eyes stared fixedly at the necklace. She stammered as she refused. It looked like even though she liked it very much, she hadn't completely lost her reason.
"Take it, there's no use for a man like me to keep something like this. Not to mention you've taken care of me all these years and I've always been very grateful to you. This is a rare opportunity to repay you and I'll be very sad if you refuse." Han Shuo's expression was serious and his usual cheeky and silly demeanor was nowhere to be seen as he spoke persistently.
"I really can't. You've already saved me last time and you've helped me quite a bit along the way. How can I accept something from you? Oh, although last time in the pool, you … "Fanny's words were somewhat incoherent. When she mentioned the pool, she seemed to think of Han Shuo's mischief and her face was alluring as she rolled her eyes at Han Shuo.
Her beauty almost stole Han Shuo's soul. His heart moved, Han Shuo hastily stood up with a strong sense of righteousness and said with a slight smile, "You must accept it, otherwise I'll always feel guilty. I still have matters to attend to and will be leaving first. "
After Han Shuo finished speaking, he didn't wait for Fanny to refuse again and directly opened the door to leave. The sound of his footsteps gradually faded into the distance.
Fanny's heart was in a state of panic as her bright eyes fell upon the ruby agate necklace. Her expression was indescribably odd. Her gaze was resolute one moment, weak the next, bashful and happy the next. Her face constantly changed with complex emotions.
