At the center of Dawn Forest, about a million meters from Su Wu's territory, stood a prosperous massive city- the capital of Dawn Empire.
As one of the two major powers in Dawn Forest, the Dawn Empire was powerful.
High stone walls surrounded the city, with soldiers clad in exquisite armor standing vigil on the ramparts.
About a thousand meters from the northern city gate, a ripple of space flickered and Su Wu appeared suddenly.
Looking at the enormous city ahead, having spent over an hour to arrive, Su Wu finally relaxed.
Thanks to Space Control, compressing space and stepping a thousand meters at a time.
Otherwise, even with Lucky Rabbit's coordinates, he couldn't have arrived so quickly.
At the city gate, unsurprisingly, guards stopped him.
"Lord?"
After scanning Su Wu with identity-detecting magic, the guards became puzzled.
"Aren't you just arriving today?"
"Yes, today."
Guard: "???"
Then how did you get here so fast?
As the capital, Dawn Empire's territory spanned tens of thousands of miles around.
Newly arrived lords like Su Wu usually get territories far from the empire.
Could it be that their boss wrote the announcement drunk?
"Can lords enter?" Su Wu asked.
Local powers like the Dawn Empire generally had mixed attitudes towards lords.
But usually, they didn't care much before the lord reached level 4 territory.
That was why Su Wu dared to come.
To draw a lion's attention, you need to be at least a dog's size.
If you're barely worth chewing on, no need to bother.
"New lords may enter."
After a brief surprise, the guards recovered.
Just as Su Wu expected, Dawn Empire's attitude towards lords was relatively friendly.
However, entrance fees were still charged.
"The entry fee is one low-tier energy stone."
"Here you go."
"No problem."
After checking the stone wasn't a drained piece of junk, the guard nodded approvingly.
Maybe because he was in a good mood, he also warned:
"Welcome to Dawn Empire's capital. Recently, many violent attacks have occurred, so patrols are frequent."
"If you get into disputes with locals, it's better to back down or you'll suffer."
"Violent attacks?"
Su Wu handed another low-tier energy stone, asking: "Tell me more."
"Nothing special."
The guard smiled brightly.
"Some civilians mysteriously vanished; the captain has investigated many times but found no useful evidence."
"To me, it's just some troublemakers."
Then leaning in, the guard whispered:
"Some nobles abuse their royal connections to bully others..."
"Yeah, that's about it."
"Just be cautious; as long as you act normally, there shouldn't be problems."
"Okay." Su Wu nodded and slipped another low-tier energy stone in.
"Can you tell me about good blacksmiths in the city?"
"And some info on important local figures."
...
Ten minutes later, under the guard's reverent gaze, Su Wu thoughtfully walked into the capital.
Compared to when he arrived, his mood was much higher.
Because while the guard introduced some well-known names, Su Wu's Holy Judgment triggered:
[Holy Judgment triggered successfully.]
[Option 1: Visit mysterious blacksmith Alicia to obtain a method to repair White Jade Sword.]
[Option 2: Visit pot merchant Barnard to obtain many high-quality treasures.]
[Option 3: Take Cang Yue to strange elder Walter to obtain unique skill 'True Eye'.]
Each option looked promising.
After a moment of hesitation, Su Wu made a decision.
He wanted all of them!
