Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 119: Is the old man just looking for sex?

Views:

After seeing off the two unexpected visitors, the tent returned to calm.

Bazel also disappeared without a trace.

As for the unsealed letter, Renn had no intention of opening it and put it directly into the folding space.

The days seemed to be back to normal again, and he was not idle. He took out the materials for preparing the medicine, set up various beakers and test tubes, and prepared to start preparing the medicine.

Because today is another day to prepare the [golden potion] for old man Tust.

... .

Renn's current foundation in pharmacy is very solid. The past few months of continuous practice of basic skills have allowed him to reach at least the level of an advanced pharmacy apprentice. Even simple genetic potions can be used gradually.

Not long after, the potion was prepared.

Ren woke up Tust who was taking a nap in the tent with his eyes closed. Although this old man sleeps for a long time every day, he sleeps very lightly.

"Grandpa Tust, get ready to take the potion."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Tust opened his eyes reflexively.

"Boy Ren, I seemed to hear you talking to someone just now. Are there guests?"

"Well, there were two old acquaintances. But they have left."

Ren didn't say much and handed over the golden potion.

After Tust drank, his face became a little rosy like a living person.

This frail old man has been getting weaker and weaker recently, and he doesn't know how long he can last.

His whole body is paralyzed, the poison is corroding his body every day, and there is no hope of recovery at all. For ordinary people, this is a "life of despair" that should have been given up long ago.

If he hadn't been unable to let go of the little grandson Carl he had picked up, and the mechanical science he had loved his whole life, Tust would probably have lost the faith to live.

After drinking the medicine, the energy is not restored much, which is a sign of resistance to the medicine.

The old man clearly felt that his body was deteriorating, and he also understood that there were not many types of life for him to choose from. He sighed: "Little Ren... I am causing you trouble with my old bones."

"What a trouble, Grandpa Tust."

Renn responded with a smile and said disapprovingly: "Isn't it just refining some potions? This is originally an exercise that the teacher arranged for me to do in my daily homework."

Tust's life is truly a tragedy.

Even Ren, an outsider, sounded sad.

He could obviously bear the title of "Genius Mechanic" and become a legendary figure in the Omar Royal Academy of Sciences, but because of that accident, his family was ruined and he had nothing, so he had to spend the rest of his life in this remote city.

After a pause, he felt the old man's pessimism and said with relief: "You don't have to be too anxious. I believe you will get better."

Tust didn't say anything and let out a long sigh.

... .

I don’t know why, but there are waves of visitors today.

While Ren was giving Tust the medicine, another wave of uninvited guests visited the tent.

"Do you have a doctor-apprentice named 'Ren' here?"

The tone of the words was very arrogant, and even without seeing the person, one could guess that the guy speaking must have a face that deserves a beating.

After taking a closer look, a noble lady appeared at the entrance of the tent with a few servants.

Renn raised his eyebrows and rolled his eyes lazily at the visitor, but said nothing.

With this arrogant tone, no matter who it was, even Emperor Omar, he had no interest in paying attention.

But what he didn't expect was that he had no intention of paying attention to her. Tust, who was lying not far away, suddenly froze when he saw the lady.

"Clang", the medicine test tube in Tust's hand fell to the ground, and then "crash" it broke into glass fragments.

When Ren heard this unusual noise, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that the old man had suffered a "heart attack" or something.

He ignored the people at the door and ran over nervously: "Grandpa Tust, are you okay?"

Upon further inspection, the old man's breathing was slightly short of breath and slightly rosy. It did not look like a sudden illness.

Is there something wrong with the medicine

Ren was startled again. After thinking about it carefully, it was wrong. All the programs were strictly in accordance with the instructions of the "intelligent brain", and there would be no errors at all!

He was startled and thought of a possibility.

This... the old man isn't having a comeback, is he

At this time, Karl also put down his paintbrush and ran over with concern on his face, "Grandpa, grandpa... what's wrong with you?"

"..."

Tust never spoke, and there was a faint glint in his pair of turbid eyes, as if he were an old friend meeting again.

Ren vaguely understood something and followed the old man's gaze.

... ..

There were five people at the door.

It’s easy to tell the priority by looking at the outfit.

The lady should be the leader, a housekeeper, and three strong bodyguards with mechanical skeletons.

not.

The old man sees that this lady is still charming, is this because he is lustful

Ren didn't know why, but this weird idea came to his mind.

The face is red, the ears are red, and the breathing is short. No matter how you look at it, it is a physiological reaction of "seeing sex".

However, from a medical perspective, Tust's current physical condition is very bad, and there is no possibility of such abnormal hormonal secretion.

This... is a bit intriguing.

Tust has lived incognito in the City of Glory for thirty years. He has lived in his shop all year round without being seen. He can be counted on the palm of a hand who knows his name, and he has no acquaintances.

Could it be that this woman is an old lover of the old man's youth

That's not right. It's not right for this age either.

Women in this world generally give birth to children at an early age, and they seem to be at most thirty years old, which is about the same as her father.

Huh... Dad

Ren inexplicably thought of the story Bazel told him.

That's not right either.

Didn't Bazel say that Tust had a lover when he was at the Royal Academy of Sciences in Omar, and was he insulted and driven to death by the current president of the Academy of Sciences

... .

The other party has bad intentions.

Only then did Ren realize that the features of this noble lady were 50-50% similar to that of the girl who had been beaten before, and she was also 40-50% similar to the very handsome man in black.

Obviously, according to the laws of genetics, this lady must be related to the beaten girl.

The younger one was beaten, and the older one is here

The other party didn't have good intentions at first glance, and Renn didn't have a good face.

At this time, the butler next to the lady glanced at the three people in the tent with his nostrils, and asked again in his drake-like voice: "Does anyone here know where the doctor's apprentice named Renn is?" ? The one who just injured my young lady with despicable means..."

This is the normal dog servant attitude in TV scripts.

Although housekeepers in noble families are not as good as nobles, they are much more noble than commoners.

This arrogant and bossy attitude works very well among the common people of the Omar Empire.

Ordinary civilians will respond respectfully when nobles ask questions, even if they are unreasonable requests.

Originally, there was nothing wrong with his attitude in showing off his authority in other places, but how could Ren, a good young man from time travel in the 21st century, see this way of showing off his power

The "Glory City" is not the Omar Empire, and the aristocracy's prestige will not work here.

Even though the five major families now control the city and have formed a new generation of "invisible privileged" class, no one dares to trample on Master Cavo's concept of equality for everyone.

What's more, this is still in the wilderness hunting mission.

According to the laws of the city, regardless of the nobles, even princes and princes are equal hunters.

... ..

For a long time, no one in the tent paid any attention to this group of uninvited guests.

Because no one spoke, the atmosphere suddenly became very awkward.

Was he actually ignored by these low-class people

The butler's face suddenly twitched, and he felt a little embarrassed. He cursed angrily from the side of his face: "He is indeed a countryman from a remote country, and he doesn't understand any etiquette!"

He saw that his two inquiries were fruitless, like an old dog that had been beaten with a stick. It lost its ferocity and hid beside its master with its tail between its legs.

It has to be said that the woman is also quite pretty, with a certain charm and a bejeweled dress, exuding the grace and nobility of a lady from the upper class.

"Butler Juan, please don't be rude."

At this time, the master was finally willing to come forward.

She looked at Renn, who was wearing a mask and covered in injuries, and then asked in person: "Excuse me, who is Dr. Renn?"

This gentle scolding was gentle and painless, and Renn didn't catch a cold.

This is a common trick used by nobles, using evil servants to contrast their own kindness.

It's best if you scare them, but if you can't scare them, they will come out to be good people. This contrast makes it easy to win people's trust and praise the kindness of noble ladies and gentlemen.

Ren is not stupid. Without this master's signal, a housekeeper dares to be so arrogant

What's more, the words "underhanded means" make people know the other party's intention as soon as they hear it.

However, this lady was quite polite when she spoke.

Renn raised his eyebrows, became interested in answering, and asked coldly: "What's the matter with you?"

The noble lady looked at Renn, like a shrewd businessman, with an imperceptible light flashing in her eyes.

"Are you Dr. Lane?"

Her smile was very professional, not flattering, but also unflattering. She said straight to the point: "That's it. My wayward daughter had a competition with you just now, and then lost to Duke Rubio. It’s a coming-of-age gift for her. So as a mother, I can only shamelessly come to visit..."

After a pause, he looked at Tust who was lying down again, thinking that he was Ren's elder, and said: "You should have heard that Duke Rubio has a distinguished status. If he heard that he was sent out If the gift was won by someone in a gambling match, our Lopez family will be very disgraced... and that adult will probably be very angry as well."

This woman spoke very cleverly, and the word "Grand Duke" appeared repeatedly in her words.

Isn't it a threat

Ren didn't understand that there was something bad in this woman's belly, so he asked with a cold expression: "So? Madam, what do you mean?"

The noble lady threw out her bargaining chip: "So, I want to redeem the gloves that little Feiya lost."

As she said this, she motioned to the butler beside her and took out a valuable coupon: "This is a check from our Sunflower Merchant Association. It's fifty million liso, which is considered a ransom for redeeming the gloves."

Ren glanced at the check and responded calmly: "What if I don't want to accept the redemption?"
