They stayed in Becky's new home that night. To celebrate the realization of her dream, Becky held a grand banquet (the world was meant to enjoy the life of the rich). Hao Ren led his friends to enjoy Holletta-style wine and delicacies. It was almost 12 o'clock at night before they went back to bed, leaving behind a mess. The next morning, Hao Ren was woken up by Lil Pea patting him with her tail as usual. The little mermaid bounced on his chest excitedly. "Daddy! Daddy! There are guests outside! Guests are here! They're here! "
Hao Ren grabbed Lil Pea and threw her into the basin next to him. When he sat up on the soft bed, his whole body was bounced by the spring cushion. He was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was in Becky's house. He tidied himself up, turned his head and looked out of the window. He saw a group of people in the front yard, some of whom he knew: Marshal Ophra, Cardinal Orben, and several archbishops and ministers of the kingdom whom he had met in the secret meeting two days ago. The rest of the people were basically guards.
The butler here was receiving these distinguished guests while a servant quickly ran to the main house, probably to inform Becky.
Hao Ren put on his coat and was about to go out when he suddenly found that his clothes were torn. "Hey, why are all my buttons gone..."
There was a splash in the basin next to him. Hao Ren turned his head and found that Lil Pea was curled up and pretending to sleep at the bottom of the water. But looking at the way her tail was shaking, he knew that the little one must be guilty — the little thing would not lie at all. He fished Lil Pea out and found several broken buttons lying quietly on the place where she was lying.
"I thought it was edible," Lil Pea patted her tail on Hao Ren's arm. "But it's not delicious."
"Nonsense! This is plastic! Although it's wood grain, this thing is plastic! " Hao Ren looked at his daughter who was in the growth stage. "I know you've grown taller recently, but can't you eat something normal if you're hungry? You can wake me or that brick if you really can't!"
The MDT suddenly hit the back of Hao Ren's head. "Who are you calling a brick? You were talking about coasters yesterday! Let's fight! "
Hao Ren was speechless.
When Hao Ren changed his clothes and went out to the living room, everyone had heard the noise outside and gathered together. Ophra and a group of guests were chatting with Vivian at the door. Hao Ren looked around and did not see Becky. He then looked for Wuyue who had slept on Becky's arm last night. "Where's the new tycoon?"
"I'm not awake yet," Wuyue said as she stretched her waist. If it wasn't for the fact that she was small and skinny in her human form, she would have been able to sweep through many fashion shows. "What were you doing upstairs just now? "What were you doing upstairs? I heard you yelling."
"Educating a fish and then fighting with my own PDA. The good news is that I won, but the bad news is that I feel so f * cking empty after winning," Hao Ren said, covering his forehead. "If I don't add subtitles and narration, can you understand my daily life?"
Wuyue pursed her lips. "Basically, I can imagine it."
At this time, Becky finally appeared at the stairs, yawning. It seemed that the butler had dragged her out. She looked at the group of distinguished guests at the door and tried to cheer herself up. "Hello everyone, Huan —"
Then, she missed a step and tumbled down from the second floor. After a series of bangs, she finally stopped at Nangong Sanba's feet. As she got up, she continued, "… Welcome to my home as a guest. Mom is much more awake this time. "
The group of bishops, ministers, marshals, and generals at the door looked at the legendary mercenary cum nobleman in horror. Most of them had one thing in mind: there was such a person among the heroes who saved the kingdom, and she was even the main representative of the royal family. This was a disaster. Unfortunately, other than Becky, there was no one else to recommend. There were only five local heroes among the outlanders. The other four were said to be hunting wild rabbits in the Otherworld. Ascetics were never suitable candidates for publicity. So, they could only use this half-baked girl to make up the numbers, even if she was just an ordinary magic swordsman who followed a max-level team to get an epic achievement...
"What's with your image?" Hao Ren mumbled as he pulled Becky up. "Didn't you sleep last night?"
"I was too excited to sleep." Becky stuck her tongue out and then smiled like a flower. "Speaking of which, now that you're freeloading at my house, I suddenly feel much better... Drop by often in the future, and don't stand on ceremony with me — His Majesty is very rich."
"Ahem," Ophra happened to walk over. After hearing these immoral words, she hurriedly coughed twice. "There is a marshal, two deputy prime ministers, and four cabinet ministers standing here. Let's get down to business."
"We're going to the First Born's sealed place, right?" Hao Ren nodded. "Where exactly? How are we going? "
A mosaic face suddenly emerged from the side. Cardinal Orben said expressionlessly like a ghost, "I've discussed with the Pope and decided to go to the sacred cavern in the Volcano of Dusk. The First Born is sealed there, which is expected to wake up earlier. It's less than a year before the seal is released, so the situation is more serious. And the tentacles are more active, so it should be more suitable for observation. "
"We can use the teleportation circle of the Royal Magic Association." A minister in a heavy purple robe nodded. "His Majesty the King specially approved the use of the Royal Magic Association's strategic facilities this morning. In addition to the long-distance teleportation circle, we can also bring a team of elite magisters."
Magisters were obviously more effective against the tentacles of the First Born than ordinary warriors. At least the magisters were more mentally resilient, and less prone to madness.
When everyone heard that they could use the local teleportation technology of Holletta, they suddenly became interested. To be honest, Hao Ren had not experienced the magic teleportation circle here during his several trips to The Plane of Dreams. So the group of people quickly packed up and followed Ophra to the Royal Magic Association's encampment.
The Royal Magic Association was a building located in the northern suburbs of the Royal City. It was composed of several towering magic towers. The versatile human magisters and the Blood Clan secret magisters who were good at magic built this place together. As the oldest country on the continent, there were many alien races in Holletta, and the Blood Clan was a relatively common "minority" here.
The reason why the Royal Magic Association was built outside the Royal City was not because ordinary people rejected magic. In fact, it was for safety. In this world, magisters were inventors and researchers. In addition to being a combat profession, they were more important as a kind of technical personnel. They liked to play with strange things. All the high explosives and alchemy and engineering weapons in this world were their masterpieces. So no matter where, large magic towers must be built in places far away from residential areas, because you don't know when something falling from these towers would be an alchemy bomb...
Of course, occasionally a few unlucky magisters would fall from these towers. Do not look into the reason, it was not surprising that this group of strange and tricky scholars would study anything.
After passing through a magic curtain, Hao Ren saw the Royal Magic Association hidden under the optical invisibility enchantment. The first thing that came into view was a strange tower: the tower seemed to be broken into several pieces. It was divided into several parts and floated in the air, each section was crooked. Overall, about one-third of the structure should be missing in the middle. However, the Magic Tower was still functioning normally. Some blurry shadows could be seen flashing past the cracks, which seemed to be the silhouettes of people.
"Rudolph's Tower, built by the vice president of the association," Ophra explained. "Rudolph was an old Blood Clan member who studied space technology and was famous for his bold experimental projects. An accident caused his tower to become like this. The spatial distortion cut the structure of the tower, causing a part of the tower to float in a different space. It looked broken, but the interior was still intact. But if you walk in... it will feel a little weird, because some windows and doors lead to strange places, and Rudolph has not yet drawn the new structure of the whole tower. I went to visit once a while ago, but because the door number was wrong, I had to trek back from Kule in the south... I suggest you don't go there. "
Before Ophra's voice trailed off, a large swarm of bats appeared in front of them out of thin air and turned into a human figure. It was a middle-aged man in a black suit with a bright smile on his face. "It was just a small accident, ma'am. And I reminded you at that time that the seventh floor of the magic tower is not very stable recently. One of my apprentices even found his sister's underwear from his closet. The space is too unstable..."
The people around them immediately gave the unreliable vice president a sidelong glance. Rudolph shrugged. "Well, maybe it's not all about the instability of the space. Puberty is as mysterious as space magic."
"He is like this," Ophra explained in a low voice. "It is said that he transferred part of his brain away when he was studying magic."
"The Blood Clan in this world seems to be more sunny than on Earth," Hao Ren muttered to Vivian.
Vivian rolled her eyes. "Nonsense, the environment on Earth is so dangerous. No one would be so cheerful."
"So, these are the guests who are going to use the long-distance teleportation portal today?" Rudolph looked curiously at Hao Ren and the others. "Oh, I've heard of them... but President Kathlyn suggested that I not ask too much. So, hurry up and follow me. The sun is not good for your skin."
(Well, I'll continue to ask for monthly votes. I have nothing better to do anyway.)
