Chapter 31: Hérault, the Sin City
The adventurers of the Children of the Farm made a fuss until two o'clock in the morning before they staggered away from the Flame Girl.
After they were all gone, Obi, who was helping to clean the tavern, asked, "Boss, do you really want to recruit Alice, the son of the farm?" ”
In his opinion, although Alice is the vice president of the Adventure Guild, she is obviously a burden in the guild, and she has the temper of an eldest lady, which is extremely difficult to serve.
How can such a lady be used as a waiter?
Will she be able to let go of her temper and talk to her guests?
Can she afford to work from morning till night?
Even if she showed a fair amount of endurance tonight, it was in front of her partner, and she was clearly reckless!
Obi is very convinced by Rowan, and he also hopes that the tavern can get better and better, so he doesn't want such a staff member in the tavern to be obviously holding back the team!
Luo Wen said: "I can understand your thoughts, so I didn't hire her directly, but gave her a one-month probationary period." By the way, from today, you can turn regular in advance. ”
Obi couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled helplessly, although this little boss is not very old, but his ideas are really very thoughtful, the reason why he agreed to recruit Alice should have some other ideas.
Of course, the salary during the probationary period is still less than the official period, so he is quite happy......
And even happier than him, of course, is that Lisa feels that someone finally has someone to share the work.
By the time Lisa and Obi left the tavern, it was already half past two in the morning, and Rowan had boiled hot water, washed and scrubbed again, and it was nearly three o'clock.
He lingered in the lobby for a while, and sure enough, there was a knock on the tavern door.
Not the front door, but the back door!
Rowan lifted his spirits, opened the back door, and the white old man came in like a mouse.
He closed the door with his backhand, leaned against the corner, then wiped the black cloth off his face, and said secretly, "How is it?" No one saw me come in, did they? ”
Luo Wen's face suddenly darkened: "There shouldn't be." ”
"None? It's good if you don't have it Bai Lao breathed a sigh of relief, and even straightened his waist, "Little boss, you probably don't know that you have already caused trouble!" ”
Luo Wen's eyebrows moved: "Well, how do you say it?" ”
Bai Lao glanced up at him, but suddenly said, "The old man is thirsty and wants to drink water." ”
When Rowan brought water, he said again: "The old man is hungry and wants to have a supper." Well, that's a good royal chicken burger! ”
Rowan: "......"
For this kind of old urchin, Rowan just reluctantly walked into the kitchen and made two royal chicken burgers with the remaining ingredients.
Seeing him take out two hamburgers, Bai Lao's eyes suddenly lit up: "There are two!" ”
"One!" Rowan gave him one, and the other, of course, ate it himself.
Bai Lao sat down at the table a little unhappy, but after taking a bite of the hamburger, he became happy again.
What a child's temper!
Rowan shook his head and asked, "Old Bai, can you talk about it now?" ”
Bai Lao said hesitantly: "Little boss, I don't know where you found the ancient puzzle, but I know the runes in your puzzle." That's the text of the ancient Sin City of Ero! According to ancient legends, the words of the Ero contain mysterious powers, and the Ero people can combine words to exert terrifying powers beyond magic! That power can only be exercised by the Eero people, and later people called it the power of sin! ”
"The power of sin?" Rowan couldn't help but smile, "What kind of power is good and evil?" ”
Bai Lao was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but smile: "Indeed, strength does not distinguish between good and evil, but history is written by the victor!" Hérault was defeated in the war, but the city of Bya, which was its enemy, survived, and has survived to this day, even building a vast empire! That is, the Baia Empire in Western Europe! Those allusions about the sin city of Hérault are basically from the Baia Empire. Although the hatred between the Baians and the Hérault has faded with the passage of time, even some young people are no longer aware of the existence of the Sin City Hérault. But among Baia, there are still many ancient families that have existed since ancient times! If you let the old guys know you're studying Hérault's writing......"
Luo Wen pursed his lips: "Baiya Empire, ancient family, can I still involve so many things in this demon palace technique?" ”
Bai Lao said: "The older the family, the more grudges it has!" In the war at that time, countless ancestors of those families died at the hands of the Hérault people, and those blood and tears of hatred will be recorded in the history of the head of the family, and everyone who has the right to inherit must learn the history of the head of the family, and that hatred will naturally continue. ”
Luo Wen frowned and said, "So, if I don't want to provoke the Baia Empire, I can only give up studying the Demon Palace Technique?" ”
Giving up the study of the Demon Palace means giving up the map of expanding the Misty World, and unless it is a last resort, Rowan is not willing to make such a choice!
Bai Lao suddenly showed a mysterious look, and said quietly: "Little boss, this person, you have to learn to improvise!" If you can't study it on the surface, can't you study it secretly? Anyway, you should take down the menu board with the magic palace painting on it first. Although those members of the ancient family of the Baia Empire do not usually come to Fernandi's Civilian Street, there are accidents in everything. ”
Rowan thought for a moment and asked, "According to what you say, are you willing to help me research?" ”
"It's not for you to ......" At this time, Bai Lao suddenly showed a shy look, "Actually, I have been quietly studying Hérault's words myself!" After all, the power of sin recorded in those ancient texts is so attractive! That's a powerful force that can compete with the current power of the Baia Empire's Holy Judgment! It's a pity that there are really too few Hérault literature in exile, and my research has not progressed! It wasn't until I saw your magic palace that I finally found some doorways! ”
Luo Wen thought in his heart, and while measuring Bai Lao's credibility, he organized his vocabulary: "I also accidentally discovered the puzzle of this magic palace from an ancient book. The book didn't say anything, it just said that if you can unlock this magic palace, you can get a full twenty-seven kinds of nine-character secret spells! But I don't know what the power of those nine-character mantras is. ”
Bai Lao touched his head and said with a smile: "Actually, even if we get those twenty-seven kinds of nine-character secret spells, most of us won't need them. The power of Hérault's evil is something that only the Hérault can wield. From my standpoint, I'm just curious about words that can elicit that kind of power. ”
"Me too." Rowan smiled slightly, "Curiosity is really hard to control. If you don't solve the puzzle, you will always feel like a cat is scratching your heart. ”
Bai Lao said with great agreement: "I understand that feeling!" Now that I have your Demon Palace, when I contact a few more like-minded old guys, I will definitely be able to crack the power of Ero's words! When the time comes, I'll take you to meet them. Presumably they will also be very interested in your royal chicken burger. ”
Rowan laughed: "It's okay, I can only provide hamburgers." ”
