Karl had to clean up the machine shop and take care of his grandfather, so he didn't go to the city hall to line up to pick up the task.
Renn took the identity tag codes of his grandfather and grandson, and followed Bazel in the dark, planning to take on a small team mission of four people.
After leaving "Carl's Mechanical Repair Shop", Renn first went to the shop of "Red-Nosed" Hooker, whom Carl mentioned, and then spent money to commission an information gathering mission.
Yes, he wanted to find out where Boss Ymir lived.
In fact, when he first learned that it was the Blackwater Tower of the Omar spy organization that captured Irubek, he thought of this big boss. After all, she is the eldest princess of Oma. Even if she is defeated by political infighting, her energy is greater than others.
Moreover, it seemed straightforward to ask her about the Blackwater Terrace.
Now Karl and the others have no better way, and it seems that this is the only way they can try. .
But Ren was not sure that his relationship with Ymir, which was not an acquaintance, could make the big boss sell it, and he didn't know if Ymir was still in the city.
But even if there is a chance, he plans to give it a try shamelessly.
The old man treated him well, but as a disciple, he couldn't just sit back and watch.
... .
Waiting for the news to come to the world, Renn chose to take on the mission first.
Outside the city hall of the fifth city, there is a huge magic light screen that looks like a waiting screen at a train station in a previous life, broadcasting information about hunting missions in turn.
In this group war, countless new land reclamation tasks have been refreshed.
The rewarded task points are also a few percent higher than usual.
There are several S-level and above tasks on the top of the task bar, which are particularly eye-catching.
These first few items firmly attracted everyone's attention.
[SSS-level mission: 'Looking for Canossa J. Crofeller, Vice President of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce', bounty of 10 billion Liso, a set of rare gold-level extraordinary inheritance; related coordinates of Red Stone Canyon, mission details... . ]
When Ren looked up and saw this message, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he murmured: "So the lady's name is Canossa?"
When he looked at the reward reward at the back, he immediately stared straight ahead.
This tens of billions of cash seems to make people see a golden mountain before their eyes; and that set of gold-level extraordinary inheritance may have a fatal attraction to everyone except the "Top Ten Legends".
It seems that this time the "black gold merchant" really spent a lot of money to save people.
Putting the two conditions together, this is definitely an attractive reward that can attract top extraordinary and large hunting groups!
But Bazel, who was not far behind Ren, was more curious about another piece of information.
[SSS-level mission: 'Finding the lost temple']
There is no bounty for this task, but it ranks ahead of the "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce"'s tens of billions of bounties, ranking first.
The details of this mission are as follows: There are clear clues that there is a sacrificial temple of the "Seventy-Two Temple Knights" during the Munkel civilization in the "Forest of Ashes". If anyone provides clues to the exact coordinates of the temple, the City Lord's Mansion will provide any reward of corresponding value.
Renn looked a little confused, the mission information was too vague.
But a legend like Bazel saw the value of this task at a glance and was very interested: "I haven't heard of a new temple being discovered in the past hundred years, and I don't know which inheritance of the seventy-two sequence it is. Tsk tsk... In a complete sacrificial temple, in addition to inheritance, it is very possible to find 'divine power crystals'."
Renn couldn't quite understand it. It was a term that had never appeared in the classics. "Crystal of divine power? What is that?"
"A treasure that makes us, the so-called 'Top Ten Legends,' risk our lives to grab it."
The tone of Bazel's words became slightly rough, "You are too low-level now to understand the things in the law, and the explanation is a bit abstract... But as long as you know, it can transform the fifth-level transcendent and obtain Just the treasure of the laws of the ancient demon god’s power would be fine.”
"so smart?"
Ren listened, carefully read the details of the mission again, and pondered: "The value of the treasure is so amazing. If the city lord's palace announces this mission, is it possible that the top extraordinary beings from the two empires will be attracted? I'm not afraid. ..”
"Obviously, this mission is released to attract top experts!"
Bazel saw the essence of the matter at a glance and said: "Hehe... It seems that the barbarian tribe is not an easy bone to chew. It is so hard that even the five major families of Glory City cannot eat it alone. I'm afraid, This is the most important reason for launching this all-out war... "
After a pause, the legend's eyes showed a trace of amusement, "The risk of letting the Glory City spit out these bones is definitely not small. However, even so, as soon as the news came out, the two empires and major forces I'm afraid there will be top experts coming... That barbarian tribe may not be able to escape the end of genocide this time."
"That's it"
When Ren heard this, he felt enlightened.
He remembered that the barbarian girl said that the high priest in their Coleman tribe could call the wind and rain, and the strongest warrior could tear tigers and leopards alive. The forest is still their home field, and even if the "Top Ten Legends" go there alone, they will probably never come back. Otherwise, Mrs. Canossa's strong lineup would not have failed.
But now, relying on the strategy of Mechanical City pushing forward, it is possible to directly wipe out the primitive tribe and plunder everything in the tribe.
At the mission, top experts will come uninvited, which can also minimize the loss of Glory City's land reclamation... This is a "clear plan".
... .
Not long after, Ren lined up in front of the task table.
With a doctor's apprentice, two mechanics, and Bazel as a guard, and four identity tags, he successfully received a relatively easy logistics supply task using his newly registered name of "Soy Sauce Hunting Group."
After leaving the door, Bazel was still a little worried about the "SSS mission". He smacked his lips and said, "I am not injured now, but I am really interested in seeing which temple is in the 'Forest of Ashes'." Temple of Knights..."
"Hey... now I have to complete a D-level mission with you."
He felt very bored, pursed his lips, and complained: "By the way, when will you be able to completely withdraw the silver needle from my body?"
"You have to ask me every day, aren't you tired..."
The two of them were already familiar with each other, and Ren was not so polite in his words, saying: "I have condensed the second 'gang line' in more than a month. My practice progress has been very fast, right? You didn't notice the needle removal." Is the efficiency much higher?"
"..."
Bazel rolled his eyes, and there was nothing wrong with his words.
The progress is indeed not slow anymore. If it were anyone else, let alone condensing the second "gang line" in a month, it is hard to say whether they can master the secret technique.
Thinking of this, the legend said with emotion: "But, having said that, your talent in cultivation is really surprising. If I hadn't watched you practice step by step with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe that you just entered I have been in the extraordinary state for a few months. In comparison, I feel that it has taken me more than two hundred years to reach this level, and I am really... living like a dog."
Renn: "You are over two hundred years old?"
Bazel: "Yes. We werewolves have a long lifespan. Isn't this normal? If you were human, you would be around forty or fifty years old..."
"..."
Ren felt that apart from being a bit rough in appearance, werewolves were really favored by God.
Long life, and born with an extra "gene chain".
He asked again: "How many werewolves are there in other places?"
When talking about this issue, Bazel's eyes instantly turned violent, "A thousand years ago, there were quite a few... But after fighting those dirty vampires, there are now very few. Large-scale groups no longer listen. Having said that, maybe there are some in some remote corners..."
Hearing that he was about to exterminate the entire clan, Ren didn't ask any questions.
This one of the "Top Ten Legends" was hunted and fled all over the place, and the fate of the other werewolves can be imagined.
God opened a door for them and gave them a feud with their old enemy "Vampire".
At this time, Bazel seemed to have remembered something. He changed the topic and said: "By the way, didn't you ask me about the origin of that Karl boy's grandfather before? I suddenly remembered it now, this 'Tusi I've heard of Te Fuentes' name before!"
Werewolves have this benefit if they live a long time, and I have heard some rumors about them.
Ren was also interested: "Where have you heard of it?"
Let me just say, it is impossible for such a mechanical master to have no reputation at all.
"My impression is that thirty years ago... there was a farce at the Royal Academy of Sciences in Omagh. It was quite a big fuss at that time."
Barzel thought about it and said: "At that time, there was a 'patent' dispute... involving a second-generation official at the time, um... who is now the president of the Royal Academy of Sciences, Brendan de Molay. "
Renn became interested: "???"
"The cause of the matter is that a young man from a poor family reported with his real name that Casa de Molay had plagiarized hundreds of his technologies, applied for unique patents, and also violated and killed his fiancée..."
Barzel: "I remember that the young man who reported the report was named 'Tuste Fuentes'. Of course, the president of the Royal Academy of Sciences at that time was Brendan's father, so it happened very quickly. It subsided. The official determined that the report was a false accusation, and the young man was expelled from the Royal Academy of Sciences. I heard that the young man’s baron father was later implicated, and his family was ruined... "
There is a huge difference in status between a president of the Royal Academy of Sciences and a young baron.
Having watched so many bloody TV dramas in my previous life, this routine feels inexplicably familiar.
When Ren heard this, his keen sense of smell immediately made him feel that this matter was not simple, and he shouted in his heart: "Is the academic circle in this fantasy world so bloody?"
Carl's grandfather is obviously a mechanical master with real abilities. If he is the young man who was suppressed after reporting the incident, that means...
Things have turned around back then!
It doesn’t take much thinking to guess that Grandpa Carl’s poisoning and paralysis is directly related to Brendan, the current president of the Royal Academy of Sciences.
Plagiarize technology, paralyze others, harm others' wives, ruin their families... This is a perfect universal script for second-generation official villains!
It turns out that in any academic circle there are people with such fame and reputation in high positions
In this case, that kind of scandal happened that year, and the second-generation official Brendan had such a background, it was natural for Grandpa Carl's name to be "removed" from the machinists' union.
No wonder I haven't seen a single patent.
After Ren heard this story, Lao Zhong immediately thought of the frail old man he had seen before.
Thirty years ago, he was such a prosperous and high-spirited genius mechanic, but now he is just a little old man living in the "City of Glory".
"Tsk tsk, this kind of aristocratic and centralized society is really bad."
Renn suddenly lost his affection for the "Royal Academy of Omar" that once changed the destiny of mankind.
He also thought that the scientific world should be like his teacher Ilubek, as pure as the starry sky on a summer night.
