Chapter 288 Crisis
"who are you?"

Pam asked suspiciously, she knew all the neighbors here, except Ruby.

"I am a homeless person. I only see you as the light on this street. I have been hungry for three days. Please give me some food."

Ruby raised her head and met Pam's gaze. This rough aunt could see the color of pleading in the young man's eyes, which made her feel that he really had no choice but to make such a bad move.

"Wanderer? Where are you from?"

The vigilance in Pam's eyes decreased slightly, but she was not completely relieved, because she didn't know if the homeless man would attack because he couldn't get food.

"Mandala Street, all my property was confiscated and kicked out because I offended a nobleman, those goddamn bastards!"

Lubi casually reported the name of a street. As the imperial capital, Lion King City naturally occupies an extremely vast area. There are hundreds of streets alone. Mandala Street is a relatively familiar commercial street.

"Are you a nobleman again? Those guys are indeed not human. Poor boy, come in quickly."

Pam saw that the resentment on Ruby's face didn't seem fake, and she also hated nobles, so she quickly sympathized with the young man's experience and brought him into the house.

Ruby looked around in the house. Judging from the furnishings and cabinets in the house, it seemed to be a grocery store. There were all kinds of strange bottles and jars on the cabinets. There are all kinds of strange things in it, including flowers, branches, and the bodies of small animals.

"Is it strange? These things are made by myself to prepare the ingredients for the potion."

Seeing Ruby looking at his goods, Pam said proudly, and then went into the compartment of the house to help him get food.

"I've never seen anything like it."

Ruby also took advantage of this vacancy to walk in to watch these soaked things. When he got close to a fish in a jar, he seemed to see a strange light in its eyes, and felt a little nervous about Pam who came out with a plate of food. Said.

"Eat, I don't have anything good here."

Pam laughed when she heard Ruby say that. She was very satisfied that Ruby looked a little frightened, and then invited him to sit at the round table to eat. The food he brought out was two white breads, a piece of jerky, and A glass of water.

"The quality of food is relative, and to me this is the most delicious food."

Ruby shook his head, and didn't mind his dirty hands, so he grabbed the bread and ate it. Seeing him devouring it, Pam also smiled.

"I'm full, thank you again for your generosity."

After clearing everything on the table, Ruby wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and then thanked Pam. The food tastes really good. Even the same food in different empires will have different flavors. Had an unremarkable special meal.

"You don't need to be polite, you are also a poor person oppressed by the nobles, but you are lucky to be able to walk all the way from Mandala Street here without being caught."

Pam waved her hand. Ruby was polite, and her etiquette easily won her favor, making her feel that this young man who was about the same age as her son was not bad, at least he didn't feel sorry for himself under the oppression of the nobles.

"I have seen several arrests, but I have been careful to hide. What will happen if I am caught?"

A few thoughts flashed through Ruby's mind when he heard the words, and he quickly took up Pam's words, asking with a trace of fear on his face.

"It will be used as a storage of magic power to draw out part of the magic power every day until death. The Griffon Empire does not need useless people."

Pam looked at the dark street outside the window. The law of the Griffon Empire has been as dark as this street since some time ago, and it is not surprising that Ruby doesn't know what will happen, because such things are carried out in secret , if she didn't know by chance that she wouldn't be able to answer.

"tyranny."

Hearing such things made Ruby blurt out that he had also learned about magicians over the years, because magic power itself has no attributes, so as long as it is extracted and preserved with magic spar, anyone can use it as a recovery potion. Imagine the result of one party storing a large amount of magic spar in a war of equal strength. This thing can be called an item that reverses the war.

Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. Drawing out magic power and using magic power to cast spells are completely two concepts. As mentioned earlier, magic power and life force are linked, and drawing out magic power is much more serious than drawing out blood. If an adult is drawn out for three One-tenth of the magic power will be life-threatening, ranging from malaise to quadriplegia, but because of its war value, all the emperors acquiesce in its existence. After all, this thing is still a bit different from black magic, as long as you don’t overdo it There is no pressure for an adult to dedicate a magic spar a year, so there will be a large amount of magic spar in the treasury of each empire.

"Tyranny? Well said, it's been a long time since you have such a bold young man."

Pam was taken aback for a moment, and soon smiled at Ruby. Under the coercive policy of the Griffon Empire, those who dared to resist basically disappeared, and most of them chose to respond in silence.

"Well, Aunt Pam, I'll just leave first. Good luck."

Ruby nodded. He didn't say anything about his request to stay overnight. For a stranger, Pam's behavior was already very friendly. Ruby didn't want her identity to be revealed.
"Be careful yourself."

Pam nodded and sent Ruby away. The Griffon Empire's household registration is very strict, and if the number of people on the household registration does not match, they will be strictly interrogated, so even she dare not take Ruby in casually.

"This country is at an end."

Ruby sighed slightly and sneaked into the night. No matter how powerful the country is under the tyranny, it will be overthrown. If Mouna is not offended, maybe he can live longer. Tap it and it will explode.

"who?"

Just when Lubi was about to find a place with fewer people to spend the night, a question suddenly came from behind him. Lubi didn't turn his head. Just by hearing the footsteps, he knew that it was a patrolling magician who found him. He couldn't help but secretly sighed out of luck, Then run away.

There is no way, if Lubi accepts the interrogation, he will definitely find out that he is not a resident of the Griffin Empire. dead person's.

"stop!"

Seeing Luby absconding and patrolling, the magicians immediately chased after him. Luby could feel a group of ten people chasing behind him, but physically he was very confident that he could get rid of them.

After Ruby turned a corner, the magicians caught up with him and suddenly found that he was gone. This street is very wide, not like a small alley, but Ruby just disappeared out of thin air.

"Release the soul search dog."

The leading magician didn't expect Ruby to be able to use invisible magic. After changing his face, he still gave orders to the magicians under his opponent. Immediately, five magicians cut their fingers, and the blood dripping from them gathered on the ground to form Formed a blood magic circle.

As the magic circle burst into blood, a giant black dog with a height of two meters gradually emerged. From Ruby's perspective, he could see the third eye between its two eyes, which made him have a bad feeling. It is the first crisis to enter the Griffin Empire.
