Alan had just arrived in the morning, and had already gone to the training ground in the afternoon to practice knives.

With the swing of the knife, the content of the secret conversation with Horn naturally passed through his mind.

Horn mentioned a few things to him.

One is that Old Baker is dead, and his kingdom has been taken over, and although there are inevitably some losses, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages in the end. The second is the future crisis of the family, which is deliberately promoted by the president to make Bescord too sharp. But Horn also has a countermeasure, Yun Tiexing is a hot potato, even if Horn refuses, the Federation probably won't take it back. He simply divided half of the profits to his biggest ally, the William family, and then distributed Yun Tiexing to other capable families in the form of tenders, so as to divide some of the potential dangers of Bethcord.

Still, this approach is a palliative rather than a cure. Horn also made it clear that this move was just to delay the aristocratic chaos later. After all, the source is on the mobile side. Buried deeper in the Federation, even if a Mobit is killed, there will be a new president who will take the nobles under the knife. Now that the Federation is strong, it is normal that the nobles can no longer control a large amount of resources.

Allen was depressed in his heart, how could a race that was still intriguing internally face a strong enemy like Agareth?

Horn also mentioned another thing to him, which had to do with Allen. Horn told him to go to Van der Hey, a town on the surface as soon as possible, in order to retrieve the broken knife that Bavent had re-inherited. Then get away from this land of right and wrong as soon as possible, and return to the Heavenly Star to work hard for your own world.

All of these things passed through his mind one by one, Allen's knife was as fast as a knife, the blade was even more faintly red, and the temperature of the space around him was even more terrifyingly high, like a furnace.

Alan was stunned.

The Void Heavenly Fire in his body was blazing, and the long knife in his hand was wielding fiercely. I don't know how many knives he swung, Allen ended with a simple straight slash, the blade pressed out a line of heavenly fire, rushing like a dragon, leaving a straight black line on the ground, and then green smoke rose up. The ordinary practice knife in his hand melted directly into iron juice, and Alan shook his head helplessly. Now his source power is no longer something that ordinary weapons can withstand, even if the Void Heavenly Fire only has a glimmer of essence, it won't take long for ordinary swords to melt into juice after being infused with them.

He had already tried it on Idahuaxing, and now only the Demon Praise Source Weapon could carry his Source Power without damage, but he couldn't keep using the Source Weapon to defend against the enemy. After crossing the level 30 mark at the end of one day, Alan was not ready to make the source device public to the world. So now, the broken knife Qianjun that was sent to the surface by Horn has become Allen's only choice at present. Qianjun is taken from the space meteorite, plus the material of the heart of the god of fire. Even if you can't create a weapon that can be called a famous sword, the power to carry the Void Sky Fire should be enough.

He sighed, he had won a lot of benefits for the family, and he was still a little secretly happy. I didn't think that there was such a great danger under that honor. Bescord is now absolutely a behemoth, and even the three giants dare not insult him. But if the opponent is the entire Federation, Alan doesn't have to think about it to know that he is not an opponent of the magnitude at all.

It's normal for Mobile to keep the nobles in strife so that they can take over the resources controlled by the nobles. If he does not have such ambitions and ideas, then he cannot be called a qualified politician. Alan understands, but can't accept it, especially since he has just helped the Federation resolve a great crisis. It didn't take long for Mobile to turn around and give Bethcord a trick, how could Allen not be angry.

But as Horn said, in this case, before completely tearing his face, he can only make a false deal with the Federation. Wise as the old man, he can only say the words "one step is one walk". In fact, the pattern of this game is so big that it is beyond Horn's control. This legendary man can only re-operate for the family.

In that, Allen's development in the Heavenly Star will be a crucial step. Horn didn't say it explicitly, but he hinted that if there was a day when things couldn't be done, Beth Kod would at least have a way out of the Heavenly Star. Of course, the premise is that Eren can become a hegemon on that planet, and he can hope to protect the entire family.

Can I do it? Alan asked himself.

A bright light swept in front of me, and the severed finger in the snow was vividly visible.

I can do it!

The next day, Alan took Lucy to Freeport, intending to board a public airship to the Eighth District, where he could go to the town of Vandersey to find the blacksmith Bavent. With two months to go until the new Death Ring, Liberty Harbor is frequented by airships on the ground more frequently than usual. However, this year's death ring, due to the freedom gate, is not as grand as before. In order to gather 22 contestants, the federation broke with the previous practice of only one contestant per borough and allowed two or more contestants to participate.

While Alan and the others were waiting for the spaceship to set sail in the waiting room, the large screens in the hall spared no effort to promote the death ring.

"So many years have passed in the blink of an eye." Lucy leaned on Alan's shoulder, looked at the slightly immature faces on the screen and said, "Who do you think will win this time?" ”

"Like you, I only returned to Babylon yesterday, how do I know so clearly." Alan flicked her forehead, and he also looked at the screen: "In the past, it was always said that the death ring was a means to ease the conflict between the surface and the floating island, but now it seems that it is more like a reminder of the luxurious life of the people on the surface on the floating island." Where is this to ease the contradictions, and it is almost the same as constantly intensifying. ”

"After all, there's only one winner." Lucy crossed ten slender fingers and blinked, "After all, this is a tradition left over from the founding of your Federation. ”

Alan thought of Mobit and said indifferently: "Tradition is used to break." ”

Only then did he think of His Excellency the President, and as soon as the screen turned, Mobitong's election propaganda advertisement was played.

Alan closed his eyes, out of sight.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and saw a figure sitting next to him coldly. Sitting next to him was a young man with a languid smile on his face, and his golden hair, which was as bright as the sun, almost dazzled Allen's eyes. The young man who was chewing something in his mouth put one hand around Allen's neck and said, "That's what you're wrong, brother." When I finally came back and didn't meet my old friends, where are you going to play? ”

Alan shook his head, stretched him away with one hand, and said, "I'm not here to play, Young Master Leon." ”

Leon looked unbelieving, winked at Lucy with a smile and said, "This has brought His Royal Highness Lucy with you, do you want to go to the surface to fight." I've heard that Old Baker has been cleaned up by Mr. Horn, and you don't have any enemies on the surface for a while, right? ”

He patted his forehead again and said, "Oh, yes. That old boy from Main openly attacked you in the Garden of Eden, is this to find him bad luck? You'll have to take me, and I'll make him vomit three liters of blood. ”

Alan looked at this guy and had a big headache.
