Ren didn't like to drink in vain, so he brought back the habit from his previous life and asked the bartender to serve several plates of crispy chickpea snacks.
The old man and the young man were eating and drinking in the tavern.
A cup of "Supreme Jack" cost fifty cents, and a plate of beans costed ten cents. The empty cups filled the table.
Others only knew that there were high-profile guests in the "Iron Anchor Tavern", but they didn't know that the inaudible words exchanged between the young man with a small thunderbird on his shoulder and the down-and-out gray-robed mage were actually... The topmost secret of this extraordinary world.
"After the battle between gods and demons, [Black Emperor] Moises was defeated, and this land seemed to have this 'creatures no longer than the fifth level' restriction..."
"Actually, I have touched the 'mysterious realm' above the fifth level. But it is a power that is rejected by this world. Once used, it will cause the space to collapse. Therefore, my body has always been in the library. It is sealed inside and has been traveling around the world as a 'mirror clone'..."
"Master Cavo, do you know the nature of this 'black mist'? I suspect it does not exist naturally..."
"The treatments I collected indicate that this mist may be the 'true devil's energy' in myths and legends. It can help extraordinary people enhance their cultivation, but it is different from natural elements..."
"Have you ever thought about what kind of existence defeated the [Black Emperor] in the first place?"
"Of course they are more powerful gods! In fact, in addition to the 'Seventy-Two Divine Generals', people in history have also discovered that there are very few other inheritances in this world. However, we usually call those inheritances the 'Forbidden Evil God's Law'... "
"..."
It must be said that Master Cavo was known as the most knowledgeable [Great Polymath] at that time, and he indeed lived up to his reputation.
This conversation also made Ren admire the old mage's extensive knowledge.
Humanities, geography, history, art, customs, potions, magic, alchemy, medicine, curses, mechanics, archeology.
Cavo is simply a living "encyclopedia", and he can tell a story about almost any subject.
There is also the question of various extraordinary pathways.
Not only the magician sequence, but also the fighter, assassin, wet nurse... various extraordinary sequences, he gives people a feeling of "mastery".
In Master Cavo's own words, extraordinary powers are interconnected after they reach a certain level.
Renn sincerely asked this "number one in the world" about his doubts about extraordinary practice, and gained a lot.
Master Cavo himself also felt that this drinking session was quite touching.
Meeting Renn refreshed a lot of his knowledge.
At the bottom of a deep, dark well, there lived a group of frogs. While the other frogs were looking up at the sky, a strong frog had jumped to the mouth of the well.
Unfortunately, there is a manhole cover pressing down there.
Now, someone described the world outside the well to him and confirmed that there was a way to open the manhole cover.
Then, Kavo's understanding of the world was refreshed.
And Wren is the storyteller.
This made Cavo, who originally thought he had no desires and desires in this life, see new expectations: an ideal city; and scenery above the fifth level of extraordinary.
... ..
While Ren and Cavo were drinking.
In a magic tower in the Lord's Mansion, Kipling Winster, the current king of the Kingdom of Glory, is listening to reports from his subordinates.
"Your Majesty, the magic circle has been set up. But... do we really want to do that? There are at least 300,000 people in the Machinery City tonight. Most of them are merchants from various large and small chambers of commerce and nobles from the two empires. ..."
"It's just a precaution. If I really need to use it, I won't worry about it. I have a hunch that if we don't get rid of those guys this time, our 'Glory Kingdom' will be in great trouble in the future!"
"Your Majesty, I forgive you for talking too much. But judging from the current intelligence, the barbarians in the wilderness have been cleared away. The only way for the barbarian shaman who narrowly escaped to escape was to launch a 'tide of beasts'. But The garrison in the city is now sufficient. No matter what size the beast tide is, we can definitely resist it. We have spent so many resources on setting up the barrier formation, is it too..."
"Apico, you are my most trusted disciple, and I won't hide some things from you. Did you know that Master Charles spent ten years of his life predicting the outcome of this battle three times, 'Tarot Cards' and ' The pendulum's results were one good and one bad. The last divination result obtained by 'astrology' ten minutes ago was...'a sign of great evil'!"
"Ah! This..."
"So, for the future of the kingdom, I must completely remove this hidden danger, even if I bear the infamy."
"I understand, teacher."
"..."
Kipling watched his disciple exit the magic tower, his face becoming more and more gloomy.
I originally thought it was a sure-fire "trap battle", but the divination result turned out to be "bad luck"!
We have clearly taken advantage of the right time, location, and people.
Bazel, the Barbarian Great Witch Festival, and the mysterious woman, the three "legendary combat powers" are indeed a force that cannot be underestimated. But even so, those who dare to come to the Black Wind Territory now will definitely die.
He really couldn't figure out why his side would have any reason to lose.
I hope that method will not be used.
... .
In the Anchor Tavern.
Empty glasses were placed all over the table, and it seemed that Renne and Cavo were already a little tipsy.
"Master Cavo, to be honest, my goal has never been the two empires or the current Kingdom of Glory, but the world outside the fog. In this life, I want to see the legendary extraordinary world that can lead to the divine level. road... "
"Little friend Ren has great ambitions. However, if there is a chance to peek at the scenery above the fifth level, the old man will naturally want to take a look. I am also very interested in the territory built by you and the eldest princess. I will definitely go and have a look then..."
"Welcome... cheers!"
"cheers."
"..."
It was originally supposed to be a very serious negotiation, but it ended in a "bragging" way while changing glasses.
Although no contract was signed, Ren felt that Master Cavo's words were more effective than any contract.
At this time, after finishing the last glass of wine, Cavo did not drink more and said: "Little Ren Ren spent money today. The old man had a great time drinking this wine. But that's it for today... . ”
Ren felt it was too early: "Would you like to drink more?"
"No."
Cavo shook his head and gestured towards the street outside the window, "Your friend is here to find you."
"oh?"
Renn took a closer look and saw that it was a group of people from the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce headed by Canosha.
Looking back, Cavo said again: "Goodbye, little friend Ren."
Ren also saw that he didn't want to meet others, so he didn't stay long and said respectfully: "Master Cavo, you must come to my territory next time, and I will treat you to a drink."
"good... "
The words were still in his ears, and the figure of the gray-robed mage merged into the crowd.
... .
After paying for the drink, Renn walked out of the tavern and happened to meet a group of people from the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce on the roadside.
Kanosha sniffed slightly, and naturally smelled the strong smell of alcohol, and said coquettishly: "Hey, my dear Mr. Renn, you are quite leisurely... You actually come to the pub in broad daylight? "
In the tone of this strong chamber of commerce president, it was rare to hear something feminine.
Ren smiled and said, "I met an acquaintance and had a few drinks."
Canossa raised her eyebrows: "Acquaintance?"
Ren didn't hide it either: "Master Cavo."
"That one is also in the city?"
When Canossa heard the name, a look of solemnity immediately appeared on her pretty face.
After all, he was the founder of the former Glory City, and his stance may indeed have a great impact on the battle at night.
"Um."
Ren nodded, knowing what her frowning expression was about, and added, "But I probably didn't ask any questions..."
The two of them walked side by side on the crowded street, and he recounted some of what they had just talked about while drinking.
Upon hearing this, Canossa's frown slowly relaxed, and she murmured: "It turns out that Master Cavo has already seen my roots."
After a pause, she squinted her fox-like eyes and looked at Ren: "Our city lord is very powerful. He seems to have brought in another strong support. I can guarantee that Master Cavo has seen Black Dragon City. After that, I will definitely never leave again.”
Ren smiled, he felt the same way.
This meal was not for nothing.
What's more, if we really want to say who among the hundreds of millions of extraordinary beings in the world is most thirsty for power above level five, Master Kavo, who has already reached the ceiling, is definitely the first person.
As the two chatted, Canosha naturally took Ren's arm and said, "Let's go to the post house to change into a dress and prepare to attend the auction dinner. You are my best man, so you have to dress up." .”
... .
As a "rich woman" in Canosha, if you can travel with money, it must be the best.
Renne has already seen this.
Not long after, in the most luxurious inn in the territory, the "King's Suite", Ren was trying on clothes in front of the full-length mirror.
The low-level hunters probably couldn't imagine that there would be such a suite of several hundred square meters in this mechanical city that costs 300,000 li per night. The specifications of this inn were originally designed to entertain the top nobles of the royal family, and luxury was revealed everywhere.
In front of the large mirror with a mahogany frame, Ren looked at himself in a white suit. He took a serious look at his appearance for the first time and murmured: "Eh... it seems pretty good."
There was no need for him to do it himself. Two maids in black silk skirts were carefully helping him dress, combing the folds of his clothes from the inside out.
The clothes are hand-made "Black Dragon City Main Clothes".
Shiny white leather shoes, straight trousers, double-breasted top, and a stylish white cape. The details are also luxurious to the extreme, the tassels woven with gold thread, the pure gold buttons with the dragon printed on them, the earth dragon leather sheath... This is the coat of arms of Black Dragon City.
The appearance of this dress is a bit like the "general uniform" worn by Ren in his previous life, except that the word "justice" is not written on the cloak.
This is a set of top-notch aristocratic yet unique luxury clothing.
It has to be said that people rely on clothes.
Ren was accustomed to wearing adventurer clothes, but suddenly he changed into such a luxurious dress, and his whole aura suddenly changed. The strong physique makes the tailor-made suit bulge out, making him look heroic. The murderous aura is restrained, and the aura of a superior person arises spontaneously.
"So... I can also rely on my face to make a living?"
Ren played with the silver lion cane in his hand and raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
... .
After changing clothes, I didn’t have time to appreciate it more.
Canossa's voice came from another room in the suite, "Ren, have you changed? Can you help me come over and take a look, which one is better for me..."
Upon hearing this, Renn walked over.
Only then did she realize that she had already finished her clothes, but Canosha was still struggling with which one to wear.
Four maids had just put her into a long aqua dress, and there were several sets of luxurious evening dresses to choose from on the coat rack nearby.
In the full-length mirror, Canosha saw Ren in a white suit. Her crystal eyes shone brightly, and she made no secret of her admiration: "Hey... Our Lord, Lord, looks very handsome in formal attire~"
Ren smiled.
After praising her, Canosha turned her eyes back to her clothes and asked directly: "Well, please, help me see if I look good in this dress?"
Ren looked intently, his eyes stagnant.
Canosha was currently wearing an aqua blue backless dress. A large area of snowy skin is exposed to the air. The long skirt is very fluffy and woven with layers of light gauze. It looks like wisps of light blue mist, lingering into the skirt, and the slender legs can be faintly seen. Coupled with her beautiful facial features, she looks like a fairy in the ocean.
This is a set of long skirts that combine luxury, elegance, and sexy charm, with impeccable workmanship and styling.
This lady's eye for choosing clothes is impeccable.
"pretty."
Renn smiled slightly,
However, he also said that this seemed to be the first time he saw Canosha without wearing a cheongsam.
Canossa seemed to be having a hard time making a choice. She pointed to the black dress in the maid's hand and asked, "What about this black one?"
This is a typical syndrome of women having difficulty choosing clothes. Renn originally thought that she would look stunning in any item she wore.
But suddenly, when he saw Canossa's graceful figure in the mirror, he thought of something, with a mean smile hanging on his lips, "I think the black one is more suitable for you... But you're not wearing it, so I can't see it either." I don’t know which one looks better.”
"oh?"
Canossa's eyes narrowed slightly, and a flash of intelligence flashed through her.
The corner of her mouth raised slightly, not knowing what Ren was thinking. But he didn't shy away from it and said, "Then let me change it and you can help me take a look again?"
"OK."
Lei Mou naturally agreed happily and stayed in the room intuitively. There is no sense of "see no evil" and avoidance at all.
The maids looked at the man in the room from the corner of their eyes and were stunned for a moment, but seeing that their president didn't say anything, they understood instantly and started to act quickly.
Although there are bras and the like in this world, backless evening gowns are obviously not suitable for wearing small parts that affect the appearance.
Since you want to change clothes, you have to take off your clothes. The maid opened the hidden drawstring of the skirt at the back waist. Once the whole skirt was loose, it could no longer catch on the smooth skin and slid to the ground smoothly.
Large areas of skin were exposed to the air, and there was a sultry atmosphere in the air.
This is a proud figure that no one can find any flaws in. This is a beautiful spring light that makes people unable to take their eyes away.
Even though it was not the first time he saw it, Renn still felt that it had a different feeling every time.
The first two times were because I was healing my wounds, so I was focused on nothing else. Even though I was getting started, I didn't have much other thoughts. In the desert nights a few days ago, the light was not good, so I couldn't see clearly. But this time, in front of the full-length mirror, the lights were bright, Just look at it carefully.
Canossa turned her back to Ren, seemingly avoiding the embarrassment.
But in the mirror, I can see it clearly.
The two people's eyes met, and she didn't hide anything. She stretched her arms gracefully and asked the maid to help her change into the black dress.
However, she was not polite and said angrily: "Hey, hey, hey... I say, Mr. Lane, could you please restrain your eyes?"
The maids kept moving their hands, but with a slight smile on their lips, they seemed to be secretly praising the man's boldness. On weekdays, people in the chamber of commerce would not even dare to look at the president. How could anyone dare to look at her naked body so directly
Ren felt that it seemed impolite to look at him like this, so he casually raised a topic and asked, "By the way, is everything going well for you?"
It was a very blunt special show, and it was indeed a straight man. Canosha pursed her lips slightly, but also responded: "The person has not been released on bail. It seems that the Rosas family is not only determined to eat up the 'Redwood Chamber of Commerce', but even our black gold, I'm afraid they also want to take a bite Swallow."
Ren seemed a little distracted, "Oh?"
Canosha looked at Ren's unrestrained gaze, rolled his eyes at him angrily, and explained: "Originally, there should be no problem with bail. But I heard that it was the man named George Rosas. The eldest young master told me that he wanted me to go to him in person before he would give accommodation to our Chamber of Commerce... I ignored those guys and came back."
When Ren heard this, he thought the name looked familiar: "George Rosas?"
Is that guy not dead yet? Haha, life is quite big.
He was just a lowly guy, neither of them cared about him.
Canossa added: "But it doesn't matter. We have already arranged for someone to go there. We will just rob the prison by force when the time comes."
Ren nodded.
... .
At this time, the skirt was also put on.
Compared with the blue water gauze skirt just now, this one is equally sexy.
Low-cut, open-backed, light-waisted...but the shoulders and shoulder armor are decorated with gold ornaments in the shape of fish scales, and the black gauze covering the hazy cheeks adds a bit of night charm.
Ren felt that this black dress matched her charm better.
Canossa didn't turn her head, her eyes met Ren's in the mirror, and asked again: "Where is this one?"
"nice."
Ren's eyes wandered up and down and said, "That's it. It just so happens that the white dress I'm wearing matches your black dress."
"Okay~"
Canossa seemed quite satisfied.
She raised her hand and waved, and at this moment the maid took out another row of jewelry boxes.
When I opened it, I saw a colorful gemstone shining under the light, and there were some exquisite necklaces and earrings.
She asked Ren again: "Which necklace do you think I should wear?"
Every one of them was beautiful. Ren pointed at it and chose a sapphire pendant whose style and color matched the black skirt and said, "The blue one?"
Canossa raised her eyebrows slightly, looked over, and frowned slightly. She seemed to dislike Ren's aesthetics, but she nodded and said, "Okay, that's it."
With a wave of her hand, the maid picked out the necklace, but she didn't let the servant get close. She tilted her head slightly and asked, "Mr. Lane, can you help me put it on?"
"good."
Renn didn't think much, walked over and took the necklace from the maid's jewelry box. He unbuttoned the button, then put the necklace on his chest, wrapped it around his neck, and put it on as if hugging her from behind.
This posture is very ambiguous. When wearing the necklace, the two people's bodies are in close contact, and the extremely gentle feeling of sinking is very real.
Because he was so close, he couldn't help but take a sniff, and a very comfortable perfume smelled into his nose, and it was sweet.
If you are a prodigal in the flower market, you can probably say "what is the number XXX" in one sentence. But Ren only knew that it was perfume and said lightly: "The perfume smells good."
Canossa smiled, noncommittal.
In the mirror, the two of them admired the matching of necklaces.
With her slender and snow-white neck paired with her long black gauze skirt, Renn felt that Canossa was extremely beautiful at this moment, and she showed the beauty of a peerless beauty in every aspect.
As he watched, Ren discovered that the four maids had quietly walked out of the room at some point, and their gazes became unscrupulous.
Because he was slightly taller than Canossa by half a head, it was just from this angle that he could overlook the depth of snow-white.
Looking down the necklace, the field of vision suddenly narrows, like a flat ski resort, and suddenly encounters peaks and mountains.
How spectacular!
Canossa narrowed her eyes and smiled,
"looking at what?"
"necklace."
"What are you thinking about?"
Ren said solemnly: "I'm thinking, how on earth can this 'anti-gravity level' be so majestic. Is it because the upper pectoralis major muscles are too strong to support them, or is there something wrong with gravity? ..."
There is no bra, this is unscientific!
When Canosha heard this, she covered her mouth and laughed, "Doctor Renn, do you want me to cooperate with you in studying the structure of the human body?"
Renn remembered the conversation he had with Canossa on the train when they first met.
At that time, I wasn’t familiar with the people and I didn’t dare to respond.
Now he is not polite: "Okay."
Hearing this, Canosha showed a triumphant smile.
She turned around, slipped away quietly, and walked out towards the door, looking back with a charming smile: "What a pity, the auction dinner is about to start, time does not allow it. Next time..."
"..."
Ren rolled his eyes.
One look at her expression, and one knew that Canosha was probably going to take revenge for burning her clothes in the desert last time.
PS. If you don’t like similar plots and think they are watery, I will write less later.
