The group of people changed to multiple carriages, and after half a month, they finally arrived at the Vichy Seaport, the northernmost tip of the Golden Bird Empire.
It is actually not an easy task to go from the Old Continent to the Fan Continent. Only at the beginning of each year, a trade cargo ship from the Fan Continent will arrive at the Vichy Port. This ship only stays at the Vichy Port for two days.
The sky will leave soon, so in order to avoid missing it, when everyone arrived at Vichy Harbor, the Moon of Recovery had not yet arrived.
"There are still eight days until the Moon of Recovery, and the arrival time of the trade ships from Fan Continent is not fixed. The earliest is eight days, and the latest is thirty-eight days. So during this period, we will stay in Haiyue City until we leave.
."
After Moro finished speaking, he led everyone to the Bounty Guild set up in the center of the city.
——The Bounty Guild is a functional association shared by all knights who abide by the Kingdom's rules. The state promulgates tasks, and knights can accept tasks in the guild and receive corresponding rewards.
Moro brought everyone to the Bounty Guild, naturally not to accept a mission, but because the Bounty Guild has the most luxurious guest house in the entire Haiyue City. As long as you have money, you can get the services and accommodation facilities in the Bounty Guild.
, are far superior to other hotels in the city. It must be said that this is a guild that puts money first.
As the patriarch of the Meng En family, Moro naturally carried a lot of gold coins. Moro didn't value these currencies. After arriving at the Bounty Guild, he paid all of Angel's fees directly.
"You can move freely these days, but it's best to stay in the guild, lest the ship comes and you can't be found." After Moro confessed this sentence, he returned to his room and seized all the time.
Go meditate.
As soon as they heard that they could move freely, Allen and Irene looked at each other, and then burst out with great surprise at the same time. The two naughty children were like prisoners who were let out, and they couldn't wait to embrace the air called 'freedom' immediately. Allen
Her little eyes were shining with excitement, and Irene couldn't help but be excited, but she paid more attention to Angel who was standing aside.
"Brother Pat, let's go shopping together! I heard from others that Haiyue City is the largest trading port in the country, where special products from various countries are gathered. There is also a street here that sells products from other countries, and many people are there.
I found a treasure!" Irene said to Angel coquettishly, almost grabbing his arm and shaking him.
Angel looked at Irene with a headache. During the nearly one month of travel, we all got acquainted a lot, and Irene became a lot bolder. The shyness when they first met has disappeared, and now she still restrains herself from having any skin contact.
The rest is all about acting coquettishly and cutely.
Now that things have happened, Angel, no matter how stupid he is, can still see what Irene is thinking. He is also very puzzled. He can clearly feel love after only being together for a few days. It is indeed difficult to understand the feelings of girls.
It's just that he is still young now, and he is oppressed by the hanging sword of the 'five-year agreement'. He really can't take his mind into other things. Therefore, regarding Eileen's admiration, he can only try to keep a distance from her.
This is not only responsible for oneself, but also respectful for Erin.
"No, I promised my instructor that I will do thinking exercises every day. I'm going back to the house first, and I'll go back next time." Angel declined gently, and then returned to his room.
Erin pouted unhappily, then stamped her feet and followed the confused Allen out of the guild.
After Angel entered the room, he did not immediately take out the training questions assigned by the instructor, but took his time to observe the room.
The room he stayed in was located on the sea side and had a very wide terrace. Standing on the terrace and looking out, he could see the busy Vichy Harbor in the distance and the ocean shining with fine waves.
From a high position, looking at all the living beings in the Vichy Harbor like ants shuttled around, Angel sighed with emotion at the prosperity of Haiyue City, but on the other hand, he felt a little uncomfortable with the sudden loneliness.
Looking to the south, through the grassland stretching for hundreds of miles, Angel seemed to see the mountains behind the grassland, and the peaceful town hidden in the mountains, the place where he belonged for the first fourteen years of his life, called 'home'. "Brother, mentor..." Angel whispered in a low voice, with a deep sadness that could not be resolved.
In the blink of an eye, another ten days have passed.
With the arrival of the Recovery Month, the temperature has obviously begun to rise, the sea areas that must pass through many routes have begun to thaw, and a large number of ocean-going ships have begun to appear in Vichy Port in batches.
Moro hired a team of knights from the Bounty Guild to watch the trade ships coming from the Fan Continent at the seaport every day. The Allen brothers and sisters have been crazy these days, buying a lot of things that are not available, and buying a lot of things every day.
Going out early and coming back late, even if the weather is cold, I still enjoy it.
Angel has not been out at all in the past few days. He is sorting out his recent gains in the hotel, especially studying the puzzles that Jon left for him.
These puzzles require a lot of calculations and combine problems from multiple subjects. If any scholars on earth saw it, they would also sigh at the wide range of subjects involved and the extreme difficulty of this question, even if each subject does not require
If you study hard, but without the foresight and foresight of a broad audience, it will be difficult to make breakthroughs.
The fact that Jon can ask these questions to Angel also shows his confidence and respect for Angel.
Angel has been calculating since he left Pat Manor. Now more than a month has passed, and the puzzle has only been solved to a quarter, which makes him feel frustrated.
However, no matter how frustrated he is, he must solve these puzzles. Because these puzzles are related to something left by his mentor. Only by solving all the questions and getting the final answer can he know what his mentor left for him.
.
On the second weekend of the Month of Resurrection, the weather was rare and sunny. It seemed that due to the joy of melting ice, the port was more lively than the previous days. Angel thought that since he had been staying at home for the past few days, it wouldn't hurt to go out for a walk today. So after so many days, Angel finally put on his casual clothes for going out, tidied up his appearance, put on a gentle smile that was a sign of external relations, and stepped out of the room.
The hall of the Bounty Guild is still busy. As soon as you step into the place, there is a strong smell of sweat. Most of the people hanging around here are knights who live by licking the edge of their swords every day. Even if there are heroic female knights, most of them are just clean and exposed.
As for the face, as for the smell on the body... I don’t care too much.
Angel frowned subconsciously, but he soon remembered that this was no longer the town of Gru, and there was no protection from his brother. Outside, he was not even a noble, but could only be regarded as a member of the noble family. Thinking of this, Angel's brows relaxed again.
Unfold it and continue to wear a harmless smile.
At the small wine shop on the side of the hall, he ordered a glass of betel rum and barbecue. Angel had a brief taste of the wine. It was not as good as the milk wine from the manor, but only had a pungent fermentation smell.
Angel was eating barbecue while listening to the spiels of the adventurers around him with his ears erect.
——In a wine shop where dragons and snakes are mixed, it is easiest to find out some unique news. This is the experience Angel summarized when he listened to Jon telling martial arts novels about the earth.
He has too little experience in going out, so he doesn't know whether many of the experiences he summarizes from books are correct or not. But this does not prevent him from happily spying on the conversations of adventurers. Even if many adventurers are just bragging, he still doesn't know.
Listening with gusto.
"Hey, have you heard? The Heilan Kingdom, which is at war with the Empire, has had a big event recently! Many grand dukes have died inexplicably, and their deaths were so tragic that the knights who went to guard were so frightened that they became panicked in the middle of the night..." "Our guild's number one mercenary knights, the Glorious Golden Bird Knights, have not shown up for several months. Can you tell me, could they be responsible for the tragedy in Hailan Country?" said a table next to Angel.
The adventurer gossiped about the frontline battle thousands of miles away: "Do you remember that half a year ago, the Lord of the Empire Capital personally went to the Bounty Guild to announce the mission to assassinate the commander of Hailan Kingdom? I guess there must be a connection between these two things!
”
The voices of the adventurers were very loud, and some even deliberately raised their voices to show off their personal achievements. Therefore, almost everyone in the wine shop heard this person's voice.
Everyone agrees that one side is the enemy country and the other side is the mercenary group of their own guild. Their preferences are undoubtedly one-sided.
In the midst of the drunken discussion, a cold voice like ice broke in: "The Knights of the Shining Golden Bird? Humph, your knowledge is too shallow. Let me tell you, the Hailan tragedy is definitely not the Knights of the Shining Golden Bird."
Damn it, their power is not that strong yet!"
The person who spoke was wearing a long aqua-blue coat with silver patterns embroidered on the edges, which looked very valuable at first glance.
"How do you talk!"
"Who are you? If you dare to say that to Glorious Golden Bird, do you know what the consequences will be!"
Everyone looked at the speaker with stern eyes.
"Huh? It's you again! Don't think that just because you have a certificate from the Heilan Chamber of Commerce, you are really running rampant in the Golden Bird Empire! You are a Heilan person. If you come to our country to do business, why don't you behave yourself with your tail between your legs? How dare you interrupt?
It seems you don’t want to live anymore!” A rude man stood up upon hearing the sound!
The Hailan merchant glanced coldly, and more than a dozen fully armed knights immediately surrounded him to protect him.
Naturally, the rough man could not defeat the more than ten knights guarding him, but this was the territory of the Golden Bird Empire. When many knights saw the situation in front of them, they immediately stood beside the rough man. No matter how reckless the rough man was, he was still a member of the Golden Bird Empire.
, it’s not the people of Hailan Country’s turn to teach you a lesson!
On both sides were a dozen strong-blooded armored men, fighting each other, and the atmosphere in the wine shop seemed to freeze for a while.
