Chapter 117 The disaster of pond fish [supplementary chapter 2.9]
"First of all, I want to thank you for your dedication to Lahar City."
After walking to a quiet corner, Constantine turned around, looked at the paladin following him, and said these words.
"Without you, when the evil hidden there ferments, it will be a huge threat to the civilians of Lahar City. After all, no one knows what those fanatical cultists will do."
"Thank you for your praise, Lord. This is what we should do."
Rennes reiterated his position again.
He, the paladin, is at odds with evil!
"Okay, let's stop with these polite words." Constantine said, flipping his palm, taking out three exquisite badges, and handed them to Ren's hand. "Young man, I represent the Lord's Palace of Lahar City.
, I will award you and your companions the [Honorary Citizen of Lahar City] badges to thank you for your contribution to this city."
If you say this, I won't be sleepy anymore.
Ren, who instantly regained his energy, took the three badges from Constantine and looked at them over and over.
These three badges wrapped in a faint magic aura are all of the same style. There is a redbud flower pattern engraved in the center of the front. The redbud flower is surrounded by sixteen stars, representing the sixteen cities that make up the Bauhinia Business Alliance.
, the bottom is engraved with a line of common language: Honorary Citizen (Lahar City).
Of course, this honorary citizen badge not only represents an honor, it also has a more practical role.
First of all, the owner of this badge can enjoy a 30% discount on shopping in Lahar City, and can also enjoy a 20% discount on shopping in the other fifteen cities of the Bauhinia Business Alliance.
This is obviously an extremely affordable thing for adventurers who have always spent a lot of money.
Not only that, this badge is also a magical equipment.
——"Item Type: Badge of Honor +2 [Enchanted]"
——"Item Level: Rare Magic Equipment"
——"Item description: This is a badge of honor. The pattern on it commemorates your outstanding contribution to Lahar City in the Bauhinia Business Alliance."
——"Equipment requirements: None"
——"Basic attribute: Provides +2 defense (deflection) bonus to the wearer."
——"Item characteristic 1: Legend +1 (Bauhinia Business Alliance)"
It has to be said that this badge of honor is very popular with Renn. It not only provides 1 point of legend, but it is still very useful even though it is only valid within the territory of the Bauhinia Business Alliance. In addition, it also has four additional points twice a day.
The ring spell [Cure Fatal Wounds] is a life-saving tool for adventurers like Ren.
"Thank you, Lord Constantine."
This time, Ren's thanks seemed much more sincere.
"Don't rush to thank me. This is just a reward from Lahar City to a hero like you. What follows will be a private reward from me and the city lord's palace to you."
Constantine said, winking at Ren.
"You and your companions can go to the secret vault of the City Lord's Mansion and select an enchanted piece of equipment with an enhancement level of no more than level three, or an item of equivalent value with a total value of no more than 25 platinum coins."
Hearing this, Ren's eyes couldn't help but widen.
In the main material plane, +1+2 equipment is extremely common. Even the captain of an eight-man squad can be equipped with a +1 weapon in the Holy Griffin Empire with a full treasury.
However, the number of +3 and above equipment dropped significantly as the enhancement level increased, while the price went completely the other way around, starting to skyrocket all the way, but it was still the kind that never came back.
An ordinary +3 weapon without additional enchantments can be sold for an astonishing 18,000 Golden Eagle coins, while a +2 weapon is only a fraction of the price of a +3 weapon!
With a wave of his hand, Lord Constantine gave each of Ren and the other three a piece of +3 enchanted equipment, which was converted into Golden Eagle coins, which was at least 75,000 Golden Eagle coins!
This made Renn sigh with emotion at the generosity of this legendary magic swordsman.
I remember when I was a player, when I got my first +3 piece of equipment, my career level was almost 11...
"No need to thank me, you deserve this."
Constantine waved his hand and suppressed the words of thanks that Ren wanted to say in his throat.
"Your Excellency, City Lord, I feel that with the merits of the three of us, we may not be worthy of your reward."
After a few seconds of silence, Renn still raised his doubts.
"No, maybe for others, it's not worthy, but for you, that's not necessarily the case."
The city lord of Lahar City looked at the young man in front of him and admired him more and more.
Although he is highly rewarded, he can still be neither arrogant nor impetuous, and even maintain his sense of reason. In this increasingly impetuous society, such young people are rare nowadays.
"Because it's in the aristocratic area?"
Ren asked tentatively.
"I admire smart young people like you."
Constantine gave Ren a thumbs up, not concealing his appreciation for him.
"Yes, this time, I used the help of the church to clean up a small part of those corrupt nobles. The power and majesty of the City Lord's Mansion have been strengthened. Compared with those given to you and your companions, the power and majesty of the City Lord's Mansion have been strengthened."
The income will be even greater. And this is all an opportunity that the three of you have fought for for me."
Constantine said these words leisurely with his hands behind his back.
"This was achieved under your control, Lord. The three of us just did some small things."
Ren said hurriedly.
"Gongs are merits and demerits are faults. Why are you like those people in the Eastern Continent, who have this stinky habit of 'humility'!" Constantine said angrily, "Although it was you who 'accidentally' created the opportunity for me,
But I, Constantine, have always been unwilling to owe anything to others. If some things are included, then these things can be said to be a kind of compensation."
"You mean, over there in the aristocratic area?"
Ren understood instantly, his heart sank slightly, and he asked cautiously.
"Yes, it's those guys from the noble district!"
Constantine sighed and said helplessly:
"According to the information I just received, these bastards do not dare to cause trouble for the Lord's Mansion and me, and are instead preparing to cause trouble for you, the instigator. Don't forget, it is the paladin of the church who is carrying out the great purge, and you, young man
, and you are also a member of the Paladin. They have every reason to suspect that you are a pawn arranged by the church, and you joined forces with me to put on such a good show."
"As for their methods, I, a destiny legend, am naturally fearless. But you are just a professional who has just stepped into the middle level. If you are against the masters they have secretly trained, your life will be in danger if you are not careful. And be on guard.
It's impossible for the team to protect the three of you 24 hours a day."
"this……"
After hearing what Constantine said, Ren blinked his eyes and felt an unknown fire rising in his heart.
What is this, another way of picking up weak persimmons?
Just because I'm easy to bully, right?
But the cruel reality told him that in the eyes of those nobles, he was just a soft and easy-to-pin persimmon.
"Then, Your Excellency, City Lord, do you have any better suggestions?"
Renn looked at the old fox in front of him, and he already had a premonition of what this man would say next.
"My suggestion is that you and your companions should leave Lahar City as soon as possible and go to other cities to avoid the limelight. The nobles of Lahar City should not reach out to other cities."
Constantine said in a deep voice.
"If there is any city you want to visit, tell me in advance and I will send someone to make arrangements as soon as possible."
"Is that so?"
Renn pondered.
After handling the matters related to the Ebony Society, he really had nothing to do in Lahar City.
"In this case, please ask the Lord of the City to send me and my companions to Silver Moon City."
Renn did not forget that there were still a few dragon eggs in the dimensional bag around his waist that he had not disposed of.
"Silver Moon City? Ahem!"
Constantine was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but cough slightly to cover up the embarrassment on his face.
"Silver Moon City is indeed a good place. The silver dragons there and the dragon people with the blood of the silver dragon will welcome a righteous paladin." Touching his nose, the Lord of the City said with a slight embarrassment, "But, young people
Man, what you don’t know is that except for the few free cities around Silver Moon City, Silver Moon City only has air routes with the capitals of the four countries. I can only send people to Sulaymand first, and then you can transfer
Take the airship to Silver Moon City."
After thinking for a while, Constantine added.
"Of course, I can also issue a letter of introduction for you. For the sake of the letter of introduction, the lady may give me a favor."
As a destiny legend, His Excellency Constantine also has a high level of legend.
"In that case, thank you very much, Lord City Lord."
Renn saluted Constantine.
"I'm going to ask people to prepare. If everything goes well, you can set off tonight. I won't see you off then. I wish you a safe journey."
About two hours later, the banquet ended, and the three people who returned to the Quiet Forest Hotel gathered together again.
"Is that so?"
After listening to Ren's words, Leonina subconsciously turned the wand in her hand, with a look of understanding in her eyes.
"It seems that the matter this time has become a bit big. Even the city lord finds it a bit difficult and wants to send the three of us out immediately."
"Leo, you mean that we are abandoned chess pieces?"
When Angelica heard this, she had an angry look on her face.
"These big shots don't take us seriously!"
"That's the truth," Leolina spread her hands and said helplessly, "Even my teacher kicked me out of the mage tower, let alone you. It is said that this time,
The purge involved several direct bloodlines of the Kent family, so it became what it is now."
"That warlock family? No wonder it's like this."
Ren suddenly understood.
In the main material plane, many warlock families are in great chaos. Marriage between close relatives is the most common. In order to keep their bloodline pure, some warlock families have secretly conducted many taboo experiments. These must not be allowed to be seen by outsiders.
Arrived.
It is estimated that during this purge, the paladins accidentally found some evidence that directly pointed to the direct bloodline of the Kent family, and that's why they took cruel measures.
And the three of them became the targets of anger and venting.
The Kent family and the nobles have joined forces to cause trouble for themselves. Even if the City Lord's Mansion and the Mage Tower can resist this pressure, they will never take action unless absolutely necessary.
Because it’s not cost-effective, because it’s unrealistic.
