Chapter 394: The Tangled Baron Bezos

Baron Bezos said softly.

He was a little flattered by such a gentle tone.

In Hadro's memory, ever since he became an adult, he rarely saw his father talking to him so tenderly.

"By the way, father..."

"When I returned to Bosibon, I once met a group of people on the road."

"The leader also happens to be wearing armor and riding a pig."

"He was leading a group of heavy armored cavalry. I passed him by and failed to catch up."

After Hadro was silent for a while, he told Baron Bezos what he saw on his return trip.

He has an incomparable desire in his heart to achieve success.

Right now is a great opportunity.

If we can catch the person who rescued the church saint.

Then he can naturally become familiar in the giant city.

At the same time, he can win the favor of Viscount Quinnier.

And as the head of the bounty on the wanted list, this is also a credit.

It can improve his reputation among the young children of the Chebman family.

He has no title, no fame, and no achievements. This is his embarrassment as the second generation of nobles.

He is a typical young man with three things to do.

According to the tradition of the kingdom, hereditary nobles have to be downgraded, and Bezos's title is baron.

There are no titles further down.

It is almost impossible for Hadro to succeed Bosbon as a young man.

At least the Chebman family will not allow such a situation to occur.

Wait until Baron Bezos sleeps forever.

The family will appoint another consul for Bosbon.

As for Hadlow, he can only inherit the wealth left by Bezos.

As his father gradually aged.

He must obtain a title or a certain degree of fame as soon as possible.

Human beings in this world do not belong to the immortal species.

The common life span for most civilians is between 55 and 65 years.

The life span of the pampered nobles is not much longer.

Overeating, excessive indulgence, and disordered work and rest are all factors that affect life span.

For ordinary nobles, after the age of 60, they enter the aging period.

Both physical strength and mental state will be worse than before.

Being able to live to the age of 80 to 95 is considered a longevity.

Of course, this is not absolute.

Some nobles with magical talents and relatively strong spiritual power.

As well as those nobles who have received rigorous training and have reached the level of high-level warriors or knights.

Life span will be extended to a certain extent.

A strong body and mind can effectively delay the aging of the body.

Among them, Master Fa is the dominant one, if he can practice to the level of a fifth-level senior mage.

You can easily live to be 140 or 50 years old.

However, after the age of 120, you will also enter a serious aging period.

This is why Baron Bezos, after learning that Zong Shen has a magical talent.

He would act so surprised and envious.

Nobles and lords are the best match.

That would have a longer lifespan than ordinary people and be able to enjoy the prosperity of the world calmly.

He could also watch his mortal enemies die of old age one by one.

For noble gentlemen, there is nothing more satisfying than this.

There is a very insightful saying on earth that is equally applicable in this world.

"Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes."

Even if they are both nobles, they still have their own friends and enemies.

Just like Baron Bezos has always disliked Evans.

Therefore, Hadro is extremely eager to capture the mysterious pig rider.

Baron Bezos naturally understands his son's mood.

This is also where he is most troubled.

Fortunately, his mentality was very stable and he did not let Hadro see any flaws.

He reached out and patted Hadro on the shoulder.

"Dear son, I will take care of everything."

"I can see all your efforts."

"It doesn't matter if you can't catch this mysterious pig rider."

"There will be another good opportunity soon."

Baron Bezos said with a smile, looking very relaxed.

Hearing what he said, Hadro was stunned for a moment.

"Father..."

"The good opportunity you mentioned...?"

Baron Bezos raised his head with a smile and looked to the west, where the giant city of Lentax was located.

Then he spoke slowly.

"In more than a month, a grand banquet will be held in the giant city of Lentax."

"This banquet was convened by the venerable Lord Henry Lancaster, the consul of the great city."

"We have also been invited and will set off in about half a month.

"The Marquis's little daughter has just grown up..."

When Baron Bezos said this, he paused for a moment before continuing.

"My good boy, use your handsomeness and manliness to capture her heart."

"I will find a way to fight for you."

"Compared with the mysterious pig rider, it is better to pursue wonderful love."

"Once you become the son-in-law of the Marquis, Bosbon is nothing."

There was a bit of confusion in his words.

To Hadrow, Bezos is a respectable father.

Naturally, the words spoken by his beloved father would not cause him to doubt.

Under these two factors, his attention was successfully diverted.

He is 25 years old this year and is not married yet.

According to the standards of the indigenous human beings in this world.

The average civilian class usually gets married and starts a business before the age of 16 to 18.

The children of nobles or wealthy businessmen usually resolve their marriage issues before the age of 22.

Only children who have a family can be considered truly independent.

Like a chick leaving the nest, it enters a new stage of life.

People like Hadro Chebman are already considered to be mature young people.

Of course, the above standards are not absolute.

It is true that young people with military positions usually marry later.

But no matter what, Hadro has indeed reached the age where he should marry a wife and have children.

For himself, he also has some thoughts in his mind.

Although he does not have a real wife, Hadro is not a pure chick.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! His character is somewhat like Baron Bezos, but he is the same as most aristocratic children in the world.

He holds an open attitude when it comes to the issue of love between men and women.

However, those wild flowers and weeds outside will not be able to compete with the flowers on the table.

The Marquis's daughter is the real delicate flower.

Most importantly, she is also the key that allows Hadro to enter the aristocratic circle.

Under Baron Bezos' deliberate change of subject.

Let’s not say whether this thing can be done, but Hadro’s mind has already drifted away.

"I understand, Father."

"I'm going to rest now."

"I wonder if that guy Hopkin got any beautiful jewelry during this time."

"I can't go to the banquet empty-handed..."

Hopkin is the largest jewelry merchant in Bosbon and has his own jewelry craftsmen.

The jewelry made is pretty good.

Although it is not comparable to the great craftsmen in the giant city, it is not a magical accessory.

But it is enough as a greeting gift.

The human natives of this world do not lack wealth.

Especially in this special era.

Compared with the value of the jewelry itself, the style and workmanship are more important.

Baron Bezos nodded with a smile and said nothing more.

Afterwards, Hadro resigned to his father impatiently.

Baron Bezos looked down at the parchment in his hand.

Hold it tightly in your palm.

"Curtis, tell Zachary to come to my study later."

Baron Bezos gave instructions to the butler who stood upright beside him.

The butler named Curtis nodded.

"Okay, sir."

"I'm going to inform Lord Zachary right away."

Baron Bezos nodded slightly and walked towards the castle.

He kept holding the parchment in his right hand, and his knuckles began to turn red.

At this moment, he was struggling a little in his heart.

He waved his hand expressionlessly and refused the entourage and service of the maid in the castle.

He went up to the second floor and came to his special study room.

The heavy wooden door was closed.

The study room is lined with rows of bookcases along the walls.

Some of his collection of books and past expedition materials are stored here.

It includes various geographical logs and annotations of ruins within the jurisdiction of Bosbon.

There are even records of some alien tribes living in the wilderness and the habitats of powerful monsters.

These data are not official survey and mapping data of the Kingdom of Avalon.

Most of them were personally explored by Baron Bezos himself, led by an exploration team.

The last large-scale surveying and mapping at the kingdom level was more than a thousand years ago.

Although humans have become the real protagonists of this era.

But after the initial accumulation of wealth, they lost their desire to explore.

Especially in this vast world.

Since there is money to rest on, who has the motivation to forge ahead?

The most important thing is that the world is really too big.

Sufficient to satisfy human reproduction and expansion.

The entire kingdom basically turns a blind eye to settlements and refugees.

As long as it does not hinder those with vested interests, no one will stop the refugees from going to the wilderness to make a living.

According to the previous reproduction rate of aboriginal humans, even if tens of thousands of years pass, this continent will still be able to accommodate it.

Baron Bezos sat on the chair next to the desk.

The chair was covered in the soft fur of the prairie fox, with a cushion on the waist.

He placed the parchment scroll in his hand on the table.

With both hands, he unfolded the rolled noodles that were rolled into a ball.

Staring at it and lost in thought.

He was somewhat conflicted in his heart, and his friendship with Zong Shen, which could be described as a life-and-death friendship, was a little shaken.

After thinking for a few minutes, Baron Bezos finally put the parchment away.

He stood up and went to the rows of bookshelves behind him.

Pushed somewhere on one of the bookshelves.

There was a sound of sliding and riveting, and the entire bookshelf moved tens of centimeters toward the rear.

Then it slid to the side, revealing a solid metal rune door.

There is a faint rune light flowing on the entire rune door.

Baron Bezos stretched out his right hand and gently touched the rune door with the ring on it.

Activate it to open it, and there is a secret room behind the door.

He quickly walked into the secret room.

Hidden the parchment roll.

Then he walked out as if nothing had happened.

Although his expression is still serious, the tangle in his eyebrows has become less tense.

"I have no control over other areas under the jurisdiction of the city."

"At least I can still suppress Bosbonnet."

Baron Bezos sat back on his desk and murmured softly.

This kind of wanted matter can be big or small.

Every giant city has as many as eight hundred murderers on its wanted list.

This is not a big deal.

Although the crusade suffered a lot of losses this time.

But in the final analysis, the heretics of the Calamity Raven Church must bear the blame.

The mysterious man riding a pig is just a variable.

With the urinary attitude of those high-level officials, they would forget about this matter in less than a month.

"call…"

"Brother Zong, brother Zong, I hope you have nothing to do with those heretics..."

Baron Bezos thought silently in his heart.

"Dong dong..."

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the study.

"Please come in."

Bezos sat up straight and shouted toward the door.

Then the door was gently pushed open.

A tall young man wearing silver armor walked into the study.

It was Zachary Osborne, the young Sheriff of Bosbon.

He came to the desk and bowed.

"Mr. Bezos, are you looking for me?"

"How's that guy Evans doing?"

"Is he awake?"

Baron Bezos asked softly.

Evans has been in a coma since that day.

The horrific injuries on his body were relatively stable, but he never regained consciousness.

According to the observations of the Holy Light Priests and Junior Physicians in Bang City, there seems to be a serious problem with Evans' soul.

This is the crux of his inability to wake up.

Most of the girls brought back from the folding space have found their families.

Evans' guilt has been clearly established.

Relevant testimony and evidence have been preserved.

The announcement was made in the city.

According to the laws of the Kingdom of Avalon, what awaits Evans will be a ruthless execution of beheading.

Sheriff Zachary slowly shook his head.

"He hasn't woken up yet, according to the Holy Light Priest."

"His soul is very weak and has fallen into a deep sleep."

"In addition we searched the Evans estate."

"No money was found."

"But a secret room was discovered in the attic."

"But it's empty."

"He should have hidden his wealth elsewhere."

Zachary reported truthfully.

Hearing what he said, Baron Bezos remained silent.

He put his chin in his hands and stared at the desk.

Zachary didn't disturb him, just stood quietly and waited.

Half a minute later, Baron Bezos raised his head.

"With Evans' personality, he must have transferred wealth in advance."

"His caravan is stationed in the village of Runcorn all year round."

"I heard that there was an attack by a bear beast a few days ago, and more than a dozen villagers died."

"Send a team of people over to investigate."

After receiving the instruction, Zachary nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then he bowed and quickly left the study.
