......
When Pace woke up, it was already the next morning. He was stunned for a long time before he realized that he was lying on the floor of the workshop with dumbbells in his arms.
Did you fall asleep while holding a dumbbell? This is too...
Pace sighed helplessly. He had obviously overdrawn himself yesterday. This was not good... If something went wrong with his body, wouldn't it be more trouble than gain...
However, since you are awake, just continue practicing...
As Pace thought about this, he slowly turned over and tried to get up. Only then did he realize that he was covered with a piece of clothing.
Clothes...? Who is it? Could it be Ruiyin?
Pace picked up the black coat with a bit of doubt. He seemed to have never seen this coat before, but he smelled a faint fragrance from the surface of the coat. He seemed to have smelled this fragrance somewhere before, but he couldn't remember clearly...
No, I shouldn't dwell on this now. Pace shook his head, then stood up with the coat in his hand, casually draped it over his back, and walked to the training room next door.
We can't slack off today.

5) Cage Beast Fighting (Part 2)
Atrium - La Vattino
"Here, look, it is."
Looking in the direction of Ashlia's finger, Perlis saw a tavern - the tavern was located on the corner of the street, almost blending in with the series of uneven and messy buildings on the side of the atrium street. If you don't look carefully, you can't find it.
"Big Daddy said this is where the informants meet, so it should be correct..." Ashilia carefully looked at the note in her hand. After comparing it several times, she held the note in front of Perlis, "What do you think? [Blade of Babel]?"
Perlis looked at the note in silence. On the note were written the words "Doghead Bar" in a sloppy handwriting, and at the end was a line of ancient kingdom language that Perlis could not quite understand. It should be a secret code for contact.
It really is an old-school system... There are offline contacts and secret codes. In today's world where the federal information warfare system is extremely advanced, participating in this kind of offline contact, Perlis feels like she is experiencing life on her own.
"Hey? Give me some response," Ashilia looked at Perlis dissatisfiedly, "【Blade of Babel Tower】?"
"Let's go." Perlis pulled up her hood to cover her long pure white hair, and then walked silently towards the bar across the street, as if she didn't hear what Ashlia said at all.
"Hey! We're temporary partners now, can you at least show some performance?"
"..."
Perlis ignored Ashlia and started crossing the road on her own, walking at a fast pace.
When they were halfway across the road, Perlis heard a sudden scream from Ashiliya behind her, followed by the curses of the coachman. It sounded like Ashiliya was almost hit by a car in order to catch up...
What a stupid princess...
Pearlis shook her head slightly, then continued walking towards the bar without even looking back.
Unlike the way Pace and his group came to the atrium, Perlis and Ashilia sneaked in through a dilapidated sentry tower on the east side of La Vatino. That route required a longer detour, so they set out much earlier.
Why not take the carriage with Pace and his group? This is actually easy to explain: it would be easy for the Great Prophet to notice Perlis's presence and take action directly, and the royal government and his group would be quickly exposed. It is better not to put all your eggs in one basket...
The streets of the atrium were filled with an old atmosphere. The roads were made of gray stone bricks, which had a more classical flavor than modern asphalt. The carriages and figures wearing top hats running on the streets made Perlis feel like she had traveled to an old movie, with an inexplicable sense of unreality.
It had to be admitted that the condition of the atrium was much better than that of the old town. At least here Perlis could feel some atmosphere of civilization: old-fashioned telephone booths on the roadside, tall electric poles, old newspapers and newsboys wearing hats selling newspapers to passers-by. The wind with a hint of saltpeter blew through the street, occasionally rolling up a few newspapers thrown on the roadside, floating through the air, and rolling up a visual melody like classical music.
In the noisy atmosphere, Perlis crossed the road very quickly without any intention of waiting for Ashlia. She soon arrived at the door of the bar and looked up at the sign: the big words "Dog Head Bar". There was also a tattered wooden sign hanging on the side with a chopped dog's head on it.
I always feel bad...
"Hey... why are you in such a hurry?" Ashilia caught up with Perlis breathlessly and glared at her, "You know I was almost hit by a carriage!"
"Yeah," Perlis nodded, "I heard you scream."
"Then you don't even know how to look back! What if something happens to me!?"
"That's a pity." Perlis shook her head slightly, expressionless.
"Alas... You, how can you be so cold-blooded and heartless..." Aishiliya sighed. She was a little embarrassed by the experience of being almost hit by the carriage just now. "At least pretend that you care? This is really disrespectful..."
“Is this the destination?”
Perlis interrupted Ashlia's exclamation and pointed at the sign.
"...Didn't you hear me..." Ashlia shook her head helplessly, then took out the note and confirmed it again, "Yes, this is it."
"Let's go then."
Perlis turned around decisively and pushed open the door of the bar. Ashilia followed her helplessly.
.....
The bar was old and the layout was classic: a dark wooden bar with a wine cabinet full of all kinds of weird bottles. The tables were scattered around the bar, and all kinds of weird people were hiding in the shadows, whispering, and they looked like they were doing something illegal.
Although...it seems that there is no law in La Vadino..
However, the environment of this bar is much better than the one in Pest.
After entering the bar, Perlis looked around. Those people in the shadows were obviously a little agitated by the arrival of her and Ashilia. Their eyes were all focused on Perlis. Although Perlis couldn't tell what those eyes were, she instinctively felt a little uncomfortable.
"Let's find the bartender and give him a secret signal. Don't make any unnecessary trouble," Ashilia whispered in Perlis's ear. "What I mean is, don't do anything. Do you understand?"
"Yeah." Perlis replied softly, and the two began to walk towards the bar.
Under the gaze of the shadows, Perlis and Ashlia got closer and closer to the bar counter, and Perlis could see the bartender clearly: he was an old man with gray curly hair and an old-fashioned suit, which made him look very capable even at this age.
The bartender was wiping the glass in his hand. When he heard the whispering, he looked up and saw two girls walking towards him. A look of surprise flashed across his face, and he put down the glass in his hand.
The two of them quickly walked to the bar, and the bartender came up to them and took the initiative to speak:
"Ladies, I wonder if you..."
"Hey, wait a minute."
A rude voice interrupted the bartender. The two turned their heads slightly and found a dark-skinned strong man with a turban on his head, followed by two thugs dressed in the same manner.
"Prince, do you know these two girls?" the burly man asked in a low voice.
"Ah..." The bartender called Prince was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "No, these two ladies..."
"That's good if it's not the case. The Black Boxer needs a new girl before the fight, you know."
The burly man looked at Perlis's beautiful face under her hood, then nodded with satisfaction.
"Hmph, let's take her away."
After saying that, two thugs immediately came forward and surrounded Perlis.
Rob people in the street?! This is really too much...
Pearlis's expression remained calm, but her hand had already grasped the butterfly knife hidden in her sleeve, ready to swing the blade at any time to end the lives of the two gangsters.
However, before that, Ashlia had already taken action.
"do not move--"
At some point, a dagger and a pistol were held in Ashilia's left and right hands respectively, and pointed at the necks of the two hooligans:
"Uh-huh!"
The two hooligans shrank back in fear, and their previous arrogance disappeared instantly.
"What? Do you want to resist the call of the Chief of [Lion Blade] and [Black Boxing King]?" The sturdy man looked down at Ashlia with a fierce look on his face.
"Get out." Ashlia didn't say anything else, but just stared at the burly man fiercely.
Of course, Perlis knew why she was so fierce - the other party was from the [Sharp Knife Lion], and to Ashilia, they were enemies.
"Hey, guys, let's not fight here, okay?" Prince came out from behind the bar and tried to smooth things over. "This is Mr. Klein's business. If something goes wrong..."
"Shut up, old Prince," the sturdy man glared at Prince fiercely, then turned to Perlis, "You? Did you come here on your own or what do you want?"
"..." Perlis did not respond to the sturdy man. Her red eyes covered by fog just stared at him coldly. That look made the sturdy man tremble inexplicably for some reason, and his desire to take action on the spot gradually subsided.
After the group confronted each other for a while, the sturdy man rolled his eyes in disdain and moved his face closer:
"Don't regret it."
After saying this, he waved his hand and left the bar with the two thugs.
......
5) Cage Beast Fighting (Part 3)
After the burly man and his group left, there was more whispering in the bar than before. They all seemed to be pointing fingers at Ashlia's actions just now, and a few of them clearly looked ill-intentioned.
However, Ashilia's decisive attitude surprised Perlis a little. If she was not a princess, Perlis would even think of her as a wild boy born in the slums.
It seems that Ashilia is not the spoiled and bad-tempered girl that Perlis thought. Maybe she can really help...
"Miss...Miss..." Behind the two of them, Old Prince spoke cautiously, "You...you are..."
"Take the Morning Star as your guide (Wang Guoyu)."
Ashlia turned her head slightly, and her light green hair and golden eyes revealed a noble temperament under the light of the bar.
"Head towards the ladder (Kingdom language)," Old Prince answered the code and nodded with great honor. "This way, please, miss, let me talk for a moment."
After saying this, Old Prince bowed to the two of them and then opened the door of the bar lounge. The two of them followed him in and left the shadow where they were whispering.
The lounge of the bar was not spacious, but the environment was much better than outside. After Old Prince sat down with the two girls at a dark wooden table, he served them two glasses of lemonade. Eshilia grabbed the glass of lemonade without hesitation and drank it, while Perlis did not move at all. Old Prince slowly sat down opposite the two of them. He looked at Eshilia who was drinking lemonade for a while, and then spoke carefully:
"Miss, looking at your...hair and eye color, could it be that you are..."
"Ah, yes, it's me," Ashlia put down the cup contentedly and burped softly, "I am..."
"Shut up," Perlis stretched out a hand to stop Ashilia, who then shut up belatedly. "Operator, prove your identity."
"Ah... OK, OK..." Old Prince quickly took out a note from his waist, the same as the one Ashlia gave him, and handed it to Pearlis. Pearlis took it, looked at it, and nodded slightly.
"I need a way to get close to Georgeson Allais. Do you have any relevant information?"
"Georgeson Alais?" Hearing that Perlis was going to approach the Prime Minister, the old Prince was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses and nodded halfway, "Yes, yes."
As Old Prince spoke, he reached out and pulled open the secret compartment of the wooden table, took out a yellowed paper and spread it out on the table: it was a large map of the atrium, with a red dot marked in an area close to the upper city, and a string of Kingdom language written on the side that Perlis could not understand.
"The timing is perfect. Tomorrow night, a convoy transporting arms will go from the residence of Klein Allais, the government's exclusive arms supplier, to the government office. As long as we can sneak into that convoy, we can easily get close to Georgeson."
Old Prince pointed to the red dot on the map and continued:
"This is the location of Klein Allais's mansion. He is Georgeson's younger brother. The mansion is not far from the government office and is heavily guarded, so it is basically impossible to get on the bus at the mansion. You can only find a way to get in halfway."
"Intercepting halfway? That sounds plausible." Ashlia nodded slightly and turned to Old Prince. "Um, old man, is there a specific time?"
"From the conversation I heard earlier, the convoy should set out around 9:30 tomorrow night. You just need to find an opportunity along this route and sneak in with the convoy."
After Prince finished speaking, he pushed the map to the two of them. He hesitated for a moment and added:
"But Georgeson's guards are very strong. Even if we get close, it will be difficult for just two of us to fight him, not to mention that you are..."
Prince nodded towards Ashlia, obviously aware of her identity.
"Thank you for your concern, but this is not under your jurisdiction," Perlis put away the map and stood up, bowing slightly to Old Prince, "Since the handover is complete, I'll take my leave."
"Hey, why are you in such a hurry?" Ashilia looked at Perlis's cold look and was very dissatisfied. "Why don't you chat with the old man for a while? Isn't it still early?"
But Perlis had already left the lounge, so Ashilia could only sigh and then gave Old Prince a helpless smile:
"Sorry, old man, I will come and have a drink with you after I take over the courtyard."
"That... That's an honor!" Old Prince stood up tremblingly and bowed. "I am so grateful to see the daughter of the [Attack King] again in my lifetime..."
"Hush," Ashlia gestured and smiled softly, "Well, I'm leaving now."
"I'll take you there." Old Prince hurried to the door and opened it for Ashlia.
However, as soon as she entered the bar, what caught Eshilia's eyes was a sea of darkness:
"Hey, here she is. This little girl was showing off with that broken knife and gun just now..."
More than a dozen gangsters were blocking the door of the bar with various street weapons in their hands, and the burly man in the lead was looking at Ashilia with ill intentions. And Perlis was standing silently in front of the large group of people, holding the silver butterfly knife in her hand, emitting a faint red light.
"It just so happens that the Black Boxing King likes wild people like you," the sturdy man walked forward with a silver baseball bat in his hand, smiling, "What? Do you want to surrender or let me beat you to a pulp first?"
Seeing the strong man looking like he was ready to fight, Old Prince quickly went up to him and put on a smiling face:
"My dear guest, as I said, this is Mr. Klein's business. How about you..."
"Bang-"
