The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 595 - 276: To Get Rich, First Build Roads

On a road within the forest.

A caravan is traveling down the road.

The caravan is composed of several carriages.

What pulls the carriages are not ordinary horses, but creatures with gray-black skin and fur like blazing flames.

These horses are what Raelia and the others captured on the grassland more than half a year ago.

After more than half a year of domestication, these horses have become like regular warhorses. Though they are still a bit temperamental, it’s now to an acceptable extent.

Most of the carriages are filled with cargo, except for one, which carries the leader of the Night Watchers.

Kana sits in the carriage.

"This thing is really uncomfortable to sit in." Although Kana’s constitution is completely able to ignore the jostling of the carriage, it certainly can’t be considered comfortable.

Upon hearing this, Alyris doesn’t feel it’s too unbearable: "It’s much better than riding a Land Bird."

"That’s true."

That point can’t be refuted.

Although Land Birds are nearly perfect mounts, they still have their own problems; after all, they are somewhat like ostriches.

If one isn’t skilled in maneuvering, it’s easy to be thrown off, more jostling than a warhorse.

Alyris gazes out the window of the carriage, watching the dense forest retreating on both sides.

And the cobblestone road laid out below.

"It’s amazing. Not even a year and they’ve built a road."

Previously, Alyris wouldn’t dare to even imagine this.

To know that this road stretches from Candlelight City all the way outward, crossing the entire Eastern Wilderness.

Kana nods, unable to help smiling: "To build this road, they even pulled over every trainee."

Night Watchers, until Level Three, can only gain experience through training.

Training for the body, training for the spirit.

Training in the camp gains them experience, and working outside gains the same.

And they can accomplish real work, which is much more cost-effective.

After all, with the blessing, physical exertion is, to some extent, negligible.

Under such circumstances, they managed to construct the cobblestone road.

Only Night Watchers could accomplish such a feat, and now they hold a powerful influence in the Eastern Wilderness.

Additionally, the Night Watcher’s caravans constantly travel this road, along with patrols.

It’s been well-maintained all along.

Before long.

The caravan officially leaves the Eastern Wilderness and enters the borders of the Cohen Kingdom.

Upon exiting the wilderness, the first thing seen is a massive postal station, now transformed into a large warehouse. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

The warehouse bears a flag.

On the flag is depicted a pointer, along with a faint compass.

It’s the Commerce Association of the Night Watchers – Pointer Trading Company.

This association doesn’t publicly use the Night Watcher name.

"Get off the carriage."

After getting off.

One can see many Night Watchers start unloading the goods from the carriages.

Stored into the warehouse, then distributed from there to various directions within the Cohen Kingdom.

Currently, the goods sold by Pointer Trading Company are mostly premium foodstuffs.

These fruits and vegetables grown by the Half-Elf Farmers are extremely popular among the middle and upper classes.

They even turn these fruits and vegetables into various premium jams or condiments.

Besides this, they also sell some herbs.

These are surplus herbs from within the Night Watchers, also premium grade, though in limited quantities.

After all, the Night Watchers have a number of pharmacists who need these herbs for skill training.

You should know these herbs are planted in the Elf Village, growing alongside a sapling of the Tree of Life, hence being much better than those outside.

Moreover, Pointer Trading Company also sells various premium weapons and armor, various costly or affordable healing powders or potions.

These are products brought about by low-level pharmacists after training.

Just as they got back on the carriage.

Alyris’s gaze involuntarily directed towards a certain direction.

Not far from the postal station is a three-story building, looking like a residential dwelling.

The fenced yard is visible; a few children are playing.

Kana followed Alyris’s gaze over.

Those children varied in age.

The older ones were around five or six, while the younger ones seemed to be still babbling.

Some were not even a year old.

A nearby Night Watcher woman was taking care of them; she clearly wasn’t a combatant, only Level Three.

These children’s only external trait is somewhat pale skin.

"Newborn Blood Race."

Kana murmured.

Newborn Blood Race taken from Cohen Kingdom are gathered here, then sent to Candlelight City.

Currently, probably only there can they avoid discrimination and persecution.

Following Alyris, they went over.

As Alyris approached, the children all looked over without exception.

Bright blood-colored pupils, like red crystals.

Staring at Kana and Alyris.

The under-one-year-old child squeezed its little fists, hurriedly walking over to them.

"Ya! Ya!" Wobbling a bit.

Came to Alyris.

"Hug!"

Alyris smiled, crouched down, and gently picked up the child.

The embraced child pressed its face against Alyris’s, evidently liking her very much.

"Seems these newborn Blood Race children quite like you."

"Hmm." Alyris nodded and rocked the child in her embrace.

In Kana’s body, the blood lineage of the Blood Race isn’t high.

Since it was a kind of experiment birthed by his mother, creating a more perfect race, thus the Blood Race abilities were diluted.

Kana’s strong control over blood is mainly due to his profession as a Soul Hunter.

But Alyris is different. Whether in the game or now, she is a leader in Blood Race strength.

Furthermore, she always followed Kana and hadn’t completely transformed into the Blood Race, let alone drank blood or ate meat.

After her grandfather made a wish, Alyris also received a very pure and high-level Blood Race transformation.

Became a kind of more perfect fusion of human and Blood Race.

This results in Alyris feeling a bit like a newborn Blood Race queen.

The children can’t comprehend this, but they naturally gravitate towards Alyris.

The other children ran over as well.

Unfortunately, Alyris only has two hands, one for each child.

Had to reluctantly turn to Kana.

Kana also has the Blood Race bloodline.

The woman responsible for care watched beside them, full of smiles.

Only then did Kana notice the woman’s face was also pale, clearly a newborn Blood Race.

She seemed to be someone from the former Safro Kingdom.

All the newborn Blood Race young adults or adults were almost without exception from the former Kingdom.

They were the more determined blood-drinking faction.

Only under such circumstances could they be transformed into newborn Blood Race.

Since then, newborn Blood Race all appear in child-like forms.

Just like these few in front.

The ones not yet one year old, evidently born after that.

"For ordinary families, accepting such a child indeed requires sufficient courage."

Kana patted the child’s head, couldn’t help but comment.

At least in Cohen Kingdom, all newborn Blood Race are well taken care of.

But even with the Night Watcher’s promotion here, accepting a newborn Blood Race into a family remains rare.

Only less than 10% of civilian families are willing to accept, and slightly wealthier families have slightly better statistics.

But it can still be described as bleak.

Given Cohen Kingdom is like this, imagining other kingdoms is even harder.

The problem is, from other nations, the number of Blood Race sent is scarce.

"Sigh." Kana couldn’t help but sigh.
