After breakfast, we immediately started on our way, this time with Fernand driving the carriage.
Renne and Charlotte are resting in the car.
It was because Fernand was seriously injured yesterday and is now fully recovered. Even if Rennes didn't speak, he was too embarrassed to sit inside.
Charlotte is the eldest daughter of the Jimenez family. To Fernand, an ordinary farmer, she is a superior being. Even if her mission is to find and bring herself back to Storm City, it is just an "adventure game" for the eldest daughter.
”.
It was okay when he was injured, but he still let the eldest lady sit outside after she had recovered. That was quite an act of transgression. If the Jimenez family found out, it would be over!
It was impossible to sit in the carriage with this eldest lady. Even if he got her permission, Fernand would not have the guts.
He is different from Ren. After all, the other party has unique abilities. He can tame Polacon and cook magical food. With these two points, he is qualified to be recruited by the Jimenez family. He is completely different from a "pariah" like himself.
different!
Fernand is very self-aware. He was almost killed by wolves before, so he is very satisfied to be able to return home alive!
Ren kept vigil last night and didn't sleep for more than a few hours.
So I closed my eyes in the car and rested my mind, and relied on a short sleep to refresh myself.
Because of the breakfast just now, Charlotte was even more curious about him. On the way, she finally couldn't help but ask: "Ren, why can you make strange food with healing effects? Is it some kind of secret skill or unique magic? I once
I heard that witches can brew various magical potions that can produce strange effects. Does this have anything to do with you?"
Ren opened his eyes, faced Charlotte's rare curious expression and smiled and replied: "This is indeed a secret technique passed down by the family. It has some reference to Witch Soup. It has been passed down to my generation after countless improvements, and it has basically no side effects.
What is left behind are all beneficial effects on people. If I hadn't ended up in this situation, I wouldn't want to go against the ancestral precepts and use family secrets to make money. I know that once this secret technique is made public, it will attract the covetousness of many people, but there is no way
…”
"So you found me because you wanted to get the protection of the Jimenez family?" Charlotte asked.
Anyway, Ren was making up the story according to her ideas. Now Charlotte has more trust in herself and is not as defensive as before, and the fabricated story is not easy to be exposed.
Since it is a "secret skill", there will be no results if the Jimenez family inquires about it. I believe that the other party is not that interested, so they specially sent people to the Kingdom of Herman to investigate the matter. If you have the skills, investigate what is under your nose.
Whether you can be controlled is simpler.
Faced with Charlotte's question, Ren replied: "It doesn't have to be the Jimenez family! If any of the five major families likes me, or likes my secret skills, I can gain a foothold in Storm City. In fact,
I know in my heart that after these magical foods are launched, the nobles of Storm City will definitely take action, and even the official will look for me. If I'm lucky, I will be monopolized by one party, and I can only work for the other party, and all the food can only be purchased by him at a low price.
If I make big money, I will make small money; if I am unlucky, I may be forced to hand over the formula by those who covet the secrets. Even if I refuse to hand over the formula, they will force me to cook food and become their money-making tool. There is no strong support.
, it won’t end well!”
"You know yourself very well!" Charlotte nodded and said, "Don't worry, although my family may monopolize your magical food for profit, at least I am here and will not let you suffer too much.
!With the Jimenez family as your backer, it won’t be a problem for you to gain a foothold in Storm City.”
"With this sentence, I feel relieved!"
"Where are you staying now?" Charlotte asked him, "The Adventurers Association or the hotel in the city?"
"Actually, I make my home in the Warcraft Forest, not in the city!" Ren replied truthfully.
"Warcraft Forest?!" Charlotte was very surprised when she heard this, "How can you settle in such a dangerous place? Are you kidding me?"
"No way! I can't buy land or a house in Storm City." Renn shrugged, "Warcraft Forest is a neutral zone and is not subject to restrictions. In fact, the surrounding area is fine and not that dangerous."
"You are really surprising!" Charlotte said to him, "When the incident in Glory Town is over, my team may go to the Warcraft Forest. Can I visit your house then?"
"Of course! It's an honor."
…
The two of them talked all the way in the carriage, and the carriage finally returned to Storm City.
Stopping at Fernand's house outside the city, his wife was outside the gate and immediately came to greet him.
The couple hugged each other and cried.
Fernand's wife expressed her gratitude to Charlotte and Renne and handed over the mission bounty.
Charlotte didn't even look at it, this bounty was nothing to her.
After handing in the mission here, Renn will drive and take Charlotte into the city.
The carriage soon arrived at the luxurious mansion of the Jimenez family, and guards came forward.
They were quite wary of this carriage pulled by a velociraptor, until they saw Charlotte in the carriage and immediately saluted respectfully.
Charlotte got out of the car and asked directly: "Where is father?"
"My dear lady! Mr. Jimenez is talking to the guests in the study." The family guard replied respectfully.
"I have something important to report to my father!" Charlotte said seriously, "You guys watch the carriage, he wants to go in with me!"
"Yes!" Although the family guard was afraid of the raptor, he still brought the carriage to the side.
Renn followed Charlotte into the Jimenez mansion, walked around the maze-like corridor inside the gate, and soon came to the lobby.
"Wait here!" Charlotte asked Ren to sit on the side and led directly to the study from the side passage.
The guard guarding the door of the study immediately bowed and saluted when he saw her: "Miss, are you back?"
"Well!" Charlotte said expressionlessly, "I have something important to tell my father."
"Your Excellency is receiving the city lord, and he said that no one is allowed to interfere!"
"The city lord is here too? Just in time!" Charlotte shouted directly, "Father! Lord the city lord! Can I come in?"
The guard did not dare to say anything, even if Mr. Jimenez ordered it, this is the eldest lady!
A middle-aged man's deep voice soon came from inside: "Charlotte, are you back? The city lord and I are discussing important matters. We'll discuss anything later."
"Father, Glory Town has been captured by the Sea Tribe!" Charlotte said loudly, "Kristen, Carla, Linda, Monica, the protectors of the major families, as well as the citizens of Glory Town, all merchants, and adventurers
They are all being held hostage by the Hai Clan, this is a serious matter!"
"What?!" Two panicked voices came from inside. The study door opened quickly, and Charlotte's father and the city lord appeared at the same time.
