Chapter 102: Tell Me Your Terms

When the eldest young master of August Winster was screaming from the whip in the "security office", Wren did not know that he had been inexplicably remembered.

This young man was originally curious and wanted to ask Rennes about the details, but he didn't expect that he didn't ask for any useful information, but he also caused a commotion.

Naturally, he held a grudge against him.

......

Wren followed Ymir to an upscale inn, the "Liberty Inn of Silph".

This was originally the property of the Omar royal family in the City of Radiance, although the name does not sound so atmospheric, but the decoration inside is palace specifications, low-key and full of luxury.

On the way out of the security office, neither of them said a word, as if they were mourning in the wasteland.

One walks in front and one follows behind.

Of course, unlike before, there was an extra group of guards between the two.

Well... A sense of security.

In addition to the imposing heavy-armored knights, Wren also found that the personal guards of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess were all long-legged female court swordsmen, and their appearance was not bad. It's just a cold face and frost, with a few words written that the living should not enter.

Entering the inn and going upstairs, Ymir was surrounded by the crowd and walked into a room that was clearly forbidden by magic.

The old lady skillfully removed the plain white coat that Ymir had draped over her body and hung it on the coat rack beside her; The three maids untied part of her combat armor, untied the girdle iron armor, removed the thin sword from her waist, and clothed her with a light veil...

The whole process was in order, and Yumir had taken less than ten steps from the moment he entered the house, and the servants had already done everything.

Wren saw it very novelly, the life of the royal family was really extravagant, and he didn't have to do anything by himself to change clothes.

"Alright, you all go out."

Yumir didn't wait for the waitresses to do anything more, and waved his hand.

As soon as the words fell, seven or eight people in the room rushed out in a blink of an eye.

Wren knew that this was not for him, so he stood quietly in the corner.

In the blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the room.

But he clearly felt that when the female guards and the old lady left, their eyes fell on him, and they wandered away for a moment.

It seemed that they were puzzled why Her Royal Highness the eldest princess would leave such a man alone in the house.

......

This room is a bit like a study, and the decoration is very luxurious and comfortable.

In the most prominent position on the wall hung a yellowed map, and Wren glanced at it and recognized it as the "world map" of this world.

There are many place names on it, the two empires of Omar and Sid, the Alcolon Mountains... There are also some place names in small print.

Of course, but more often than not, it's the foggy areas that are marked blank.

There are magic crystal lamps in the room, which is very bright.

On the shelves around it, there are some books related to military, geography, and politics.

This is a royal collection, and the title of the book is not impressive.

At this point, Ymir walked over to the large mahogany table in front of the map. There was an ornament of a demonic beast skull, which looked like a third-order "Golden Horned Demon Deer".

She removed the golden mask she had been wearing on her face and gently placed it on the mahogany table.

This peerless face appeared in front of him again, and Wren still had an extremely stunning feeling.

She was dressed in low-cut gold light armor with a V-shaped opening, embellished with dazzling gemstones, and intricately carved silver fish-scale chain mail on her thighs and shoulders, a set of high-grade enchanted armor that balanced beauty and defense.

The court sword is a first-class light sword, and in order to facilitate the battle, this armor is exposed to the air except for the metal armor in the vital parts.

Now most of the external metal armor has been removed, and only the close-fitting leather armor remains, which also makes her tall and graceful figure unobstructed.

Well... glanced at it, there was a slight wave, and his gaze did not linger for long.

After all, what should be seen and what should not be seen... I've seen it all before.

Wren looked as usual, not squinting.

......

"How's the injury on your neck?"

Ymir took off his mask and asked, breaking the silence.

I said that I wouldn't see you again, but I didn't expect to meet again in this situation.

"It's no big deal."

Wren said, instinctively rubbing his hand against the centipede-like suturing wound on his neck, and added, "Thank you for saving me again." Miss Ymir... Oh no! ”

After a pause, he immediately changed his words: "It's Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”

Ymir was as cold as ever, and he didn't care which name he used, and said calmly: "Even if I don't bail you, you can come out of the sheriff's office." ”

However, although the words were cold, she was indeed surprised by the change in the little doctor she once knew.

The scene where Wren operated on the street to save himself on the spot also left a deep impression on Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.

Stitching up a cut wound on the neck is definitely not the limit of what a general surgeon can do.

And before she went to the sheriff's office, she already knew the whole story.

Being able to wipe his throat by a third-order assassin and not die is enough to prove that his methods are not simple.

What's more, there is also a Bazel with unknown motives.

Once in the wasteland, Ymir thought Wren was an ordinary doctor with a little secret.

But now it seems that this is not a small secret.

......

Without any recollection, Ymir said straight to the point.

"Tell me, what a deal."

The tone was as cold as ever, and Wren was used to it.

Although the two have not been together for a long time, he knows very well that this big guy never inks.

He also said straight to the point: "I was assassinated and offered a bounty because I had a 'secret'. So, I'm going to use this secret to make a deal with you. ”

As if he had expected it, Yumir said lightly: "You continue." ”

"I have in my possession the address of the wreckage of a mechanical city that may be a higher civilization... It was supposed to be a mechanical city that could fly in the sky. If you get that mechanical mutilation technology, it is very likely to bring a revolution to the steam technology of the current era. In the wreckage, there may also be higher-level transcendent items..."

Wren was concise and directly stated the general situation of Baron Morin's treasure.

Yu Mir was still very indifferent just now, but when he heard this, his blue pupils shrank suddenly.

Although she had a hunch that things were not simple, the amount of information in this sentence was still too amazing.

"You mean..."

She was obviously pondering the truth of these words, and asked, "The wreckage of a mechanical city that is suspected to be a high-level civilization?" ”

If it was a secret like any other treasure, the Omar royal family, who were accustomed to seeing the treasures of the world, would never be so moved.

But this news made her have to take it seriously.

"Yes."

Wren nodded, with a solemn expression.

“...”

At this moment, Yumir's eyes suddenly flickered.

The weight of this "secret" is too heavy ...

Only in a high position like her can she better understand what this secret means to a country or human civilization.

Finally, she also understood why a blood marquis of the dignified Sid would personally come to hunt down a first-order transcendent little doctor; I finally understood why someone in the Omar Black Market would put up a high bounty of 100 million to reward him!

If...

Somewhere in the mist, there's really a mechanical city of other high-level civilizations, so... This means a threat, but also a great opportunity!

Just like a thousand years ago, the ancestors of her Spuglin family discovered the remains of a steam mechanical civilization.

......

Wren chose to tell this secret not because of anything else, but because he had to do it.

It is now clear that the mastermind behind hiring Quinn to assassinate Morin in the first place is the royal family of the Sid Empire, the vampire Dracula family!

With such a powerful enemy, trying to pinch an [Awakened One] to death is as easy as pinching an ant to death.

It was a fluke that I was able to save my life this time.

Wren is very self-aware.

The "Treasure of Morin" has been exposed, and it is impossible for him to keep it on his own.

If you keep the secret again, in the face of the pursuit of the Sid royal family, this time it will be lucky; That next time, even Bazel in his heyday may not be able to keep him.

fled to the Shining City with the "Treasure of Baron Morin" in his arms, first, there was no better choice to deal with this "secret"; second, by luck, the people behind the scenes did not know the value of Morin's relics, so they gave up the recovery; Three also bet that the other party can't find themselves...

Now, the illusions are completely shattered.

Children hold gold to go through the downtown area, have a life to take, and have a life to spend.

He had to make a choice.

Since you can't keep secrets alone, you can only choose to maximize profits.

What's more, in fact, the only thing Wren himself needed for the treasure on the mechanical airship was the follow-up advanced potion and exclusive knowledge of the "Battle Doctor Sequence".

As for steam mechanical technology, he was not very interested in it as a doctor. It would be better if it could be held in the hand; If not, it's not a big problem.

There is a lot of room for negotiation.

That's why he decided to trade this secret.

He needs a counterparty who can pass on the risk, and he has the strength to be able to afford this "secret".

And there are not many forces in this world that can resist the pursuit of the Sid royal family.

The City of Radiance counts as one, the Omar royal family counts as one, and there is the eldest princess in front of her, who has a mortal enmity with vampires.

The teacher was arrested, and Wren didn't have much of a good impression of the Shining City, and the chance of choosing them to trade was not low.

What's more, strangers, he can't trust them at all.

And the eldest princess Yumir is at least a friend but not an enemy.

This woman, who was able to repay a "law ice crystal" because she borrowed a hundred gold crowns, has a higher credibility than the other two parties.

She is stronger, and she will have another place to live in the future.

Of course, there is also a reason that Wren wants to save his teacher Ilubeck, and he has to ask the eldest princess to help.

It's still risky, but it's the best option right now.

......

Ymir pondered for a moment, then said crisply, "Tell me your conditions." ”
