"If you choose to pick up the 'Emblem of the Crown,' then bring your utensils and come back to me."

After saying the last sentence, Chief Helena kicked Qian Chen out of the office.

"Your Excellency Qian Chen, how is it!?"

Silvia immediately leaned over with an anxious expression.

Qian Chen nodded.

"There's a way."

"Great!"

Sylvia burst into tears of joy.

Qian Chen waved his hand with a serious face.

"I suspect that Louis was framed, so let's keep it quiet."

Sylvia immediately covered her mouth with her hand. Vanessa's eyes flickered, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Let's go, let's go back and talk."

Qian Chen immediately took the two back to his room.

After carefully checking that there were no bugs or pinhole cameras in the room, Qian Chen revealed the truth.

"The thirteen-story 'tower' in the Conciergerie of Paris? How come I've never heard of it? ”

Sylvia suddenly had a puzzled expression.

"Vanessa, what about you?"

Qian Chen asked.

Vanessa pondered for a moment, her expression a little hesitant.

"Senior, I don't know if the information I know is true."

"It doesn't matter, even if it's just a rumor, you can use it as a reference."

Qian Chen comforted.

Vanessa nodded, paused for a moment, seemed to organize the language, and then spoke slowly.

"I did hear that there is a 'tower' inside the academy, and the guardians inside are all made up of graduates from all generations...

"Wait, you said graduates!?"

Qian Chen's face sank.

There is only one way for Joan of Arc College to successfully obtain a diploma, and that is to pass the graduation exam, which is difficult... Lin Kitchen.

In addition, students who are over 25 years old and cannot successfully pass the graduation examination will be 'discouraged' by the academy.

Vanessa nodded.

"That's right, the Guardians are all Lin Chefs without exception, and it is said that they use the same elimination system as within the Academy, and graduates can take his place as long as they defeat the Floor Guardians."

That's not a problem.

Qian Chen's current level is the peak of the special chef, let him deal with the special chef, he has the confidence to fight ten at a time, but if he deals with the Lin chef, he is not sure.

What's more, the Guardians are not just promoted Lin Chefs, but the elites of Lin Kitchens, and there are as many as twelve such people!

If it's a game, the difficulty must be hellish!

Qian Chen suddenly felt that his head had become two big.

"Wait, aren't these guys all noble children, why don't they go back to inherit the title and the territory, but stay in the academy!?"

"Not every noble heir can inherit titles and domains."

Vanessa had a complicated expression.

Qian Chen immediately closed his mouth, there is generally not only one heir of a noble, but there is only one person who can inherit the title and territory.

If there is no way, who wants to stay in the academy and not go back?

The only advantage of staying here is to be protected by Joan of Arc Academy, and all kinds of resources are available in unlimited quantities, if you can go further, promotion to Dragon Chef is also another way to get ahead.

In short, the problem now is very simple, Qian Chen can either find evidence within a week and clear Louis's grievances, or he can only challenge the impossible.

This is probably the most difficult challenge he has faced since he stepped into the path of a chef!

Bite!

The system gave him a mandate very decisively.

- Objective: Defeat the Guardian of the 12th Floor and obtain the 'Emblem of the Crown'.

- Success reward: 100 free talent points, a random reward of gold quality (you can choose from the five categories of 'talent, cooking skills, recipes, kitchen utensils, and props').

Qian Chen was instantly stunned by the unprecedented generous reward.

It is rare for the system to be so generous, which can only explain one point.

The difficulty of this quest is sky-high!

But no matter how difficult it is, there is hope for completion after all.

Instead, let Qian Chen incarnate as Sherlock Holmes within a week, find evidence, and clear the charges... Well, let's talk about how to defeat those twelve elite chefs.

Qian Chen put all the kitchen utensils, including the infinite energy stove, the single-molecule Damascus knife and other kitchen utensils, into the suitcase and returned to the front of the governor's office building.

The chief seemed to have calculated that Qian Chen would be back soon, and stood directly in front of the building waiting for him.

"Looks like you've made your choice."

Chief Helena said meaningfully.

"Yes, I chose to get the 'Emblem of the Crown'."

Qian Chen said with a firm face.

"If you choose wisely, a chef should make a choice that is in line with who he is a chef."

Chief Helena heard Qian Chen's answer, and there was a hint of satisfaction in her eyes, and then she turned around and walked forward.

"Come with me."

The trio immediately followed her.

Coming to the north of the academy, a huge and gorgeous imperial palace appeared in front of Qian Chen.

With its elaborate reliefs, sharp tower tops, and painted glass windows, this is a typical Gothic style building.

As if due to the sparse population for a long time, the walls are grayish-white, and if you look closely, you can see that they are covered with cracks and signs of corrosion after wind and rain.

The corners of the walls are also overgrown with creepers, making the building look like it is surrounded by plants.

Arriving at the main entrance, Chief Helena took out a slap out of nowhere, and the rusty key was inserted into the keyhole.

Creak! Creak!

With an unpleasant grinding sound, the door lock clicks! The bullet went off.

Chief Helena casually pushed open the two-story door, and then looked back at Qian Chen and the others.

Qian Chen turned to Vanessa and Sylvia.

"I'll go back as soon as I go."

"Senpai, may God bless you."

"I'm all up to you!"

Soon, the backs of Chief Helena and Qian Chen disappeared into the shadows behind the door.

"Vanessa, is it okay?"

Sylvia worried.

"Don't worry, he is my proudest senior, what others can't do, seniors will definitely be able to do it!"

Vanessa said categorically. Her eyes were full of absolute confidence in Qian Chen.

The sound of footsteps echoed through the empty prison.

Qian Chen followed behind Chief Helena, and along the way, there were rooms that had been converted from ordinary rooms into prison rooms.

The lavish décor and furnishings had been snatched away, the prison cells were empty and empty, there was not even a single bed, the floor was covered with moss, and all sorts of creepy insects crawled on it, making rustling sounds.

Iron bars were installed inside the windows, and Qian Chen seemed to be able to imagine the images of the nobles of the former dynasty looking longingly at the glitzy world outside the window through the windows, and then desperately waiting for the judgment to come.

Qian Chen even saw scratches or graffiti full of desperate words on the hard walls.

I don't know if it's intentional or not, Chief Helena took Qian Chen through a torture room, the rusty scalpel on the workbench has not been wiped clean, it has turned into a seeping black, and the wall is leaning against the famous iron virgin, coffin cage, guillotine, etc., and the black 'smudge' on it has completely soaked into the metal.

The torture room had no windows, and the only source of light was the flashlight in Chief Helena's hand.

Therefore, it was particularly eerie, and Qian Chen could even vaguely hear all kinds of miserable wails echoing in this torture room.

If this place is used to open a haunted house, it doesn't even need to be renovated.

I don't know how long I walked, but Chief Helena suddenly stopped in a huge hall.

"Here we are."

Qian Chen looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly had a strange expression.

Do you call this a tower? Are you kidding me!?
