At first glance, Reef City gives the impression of being ordinary, with a dark color and a low-key style, but if you look closely, you will find something extraordinary hidden in the ordinary. From a bird's-eye view from the sky, the neat architecture, the regular architectural furnishings, and the faint patterns hidden on the walls of countless houses all make the reef city meaningful.

Alan used to do a lot of things when he was bored, so the overall style of the reef appeared a little implicit in the lifeless state, otherwise it was just an orderly stone, just like Tyron's character.

After not returning for a long time, Alan still had a lot of sighs about the reef, but this sigh did not last long, because he was not in the mood now, and under the leadership of the city guards, Alan hurriedly walked towards the inner city of the reef.

Taryn is missing, and Charles invites Eren to return to the reef, but it is unclear what the situation is, and Eren naturally does not stay in the city. But that doesn't stop Alan from finding out the news.

"Is there anything new late?" he said, looking at the escort who was leading the way.

"No, Master Allen, aside from the chaos in the port area, it's the Incisor Club. The guard replied honestly.

For Allen, no one is unfamiliar, more than ten years have been enough for him to completely integrate into the city, and people often greet a group of people on the road, which also slightly delays their progress.

"What's the strange thing the Incisor Club is doing again?" asked Alan as he dealt with the enthusiastic citizens.

"They bought the Black Iron Gladiatorial Arena and kept a lot of rats in it. ”

"Raise the mouse?" Alan was stunned, then speechless.

Buy a gladiatorial arena to raise rats?

What is this for?

The Incisor Club is a boring group of special people who were once spearheaded by Allen, but when he took up his post at the bay, he sold ownership of it to a low-key member of the club, who were all in the interest of fun and did something unexpected.

In other words, they're all a bunch of neurotics.

So Alan didn't continue to talk about this topic, but asked something else.

"Have there been any strangers in the city lately?"

"If you don't count the port, there are basically no strangers, except for a circus from Duolun. ”

"Is there anything special about them?" asked Allen.

The guard replied, "There are a lot of strange people and strange things in it, but if you want me to say, it's nothing too special, the circus, it likes to pretend to be ghosts, in fact, that's it." ”

The guard's words put Alan at ease for a while. When he was on the road, he had already thought about Charles's purpose for calling him back, nothing more than to find someone who could be reliable to help him stabilize the situation.

With Tyron here, there are no foreign enemies on the reef, but now that Tylen has mysteriously disappeared, those who already hated Chrishy are expected to be ready to move.

Alan didn't know that the news of Taryn's disappearance hadn't gotten out, but all he had to do now was try to keep the news as secret as possible, and finally when Tyron returned, the potential crisis would be resolved.

In a hurry, he asked the guard a question or two from time to time, as an ordinary soldier, this guard didn't know that Taryn had disappeared, and thought that he had been in the castle, which relieved the pressure in Allen's heart.

As long as the news hasn't gotten out, there's room for mitigation.

"Here we are. ”

The two stopped in front of the castle gates.

Unlike the bay, there is a moat outside the castle of Reef City, and the road leading to the castle is a chain bridge, and there is a slight shaking feeling when walking on it, so you will be cautious if you don't come often.

But Alan had lived here for many years and was used to the unsafe drawbridge.

"It's actually pretty solid. With a slight sigh, Alan said goodbye to the escort who led the way and walked alone to the castle gate.

He came alone, with all kinds of strange spells, and Alan didn't feel that ordinary guards could protect themselves, so it was better to travel lightly than to carry a group of burdens.

It turns out that Allen, who is on the road alone, is in a hurry, and there is a dimensional ring wrapped in it, which can put simple and repetitive items in it, such as food, such as clothing, and other things are not heavy, and it does not take much effort to carry around.

He didn't even have to prepare a horse, because there was a spell to summon mounts, and he could summon mounted creatures whenever he wanted.

"If I can learn the spell of conjuring a house, and then learn how to turn it into food, then I can make my home all over the world. ”

Alan felt that the idea was still very possible, but it would take time for him to build up energy.

Crossing the chain bridge, the two guards in front of the castle gate came into view, and for Allen, they naturally knew each other, but they still asked him to show his identification.

This is a disguise for people with special skills, Reef City has not had this kind of problem, there were once people who pretended to be Charles and blended into the castle, but unfortunately they were unlucky enough to bump into Tyron who happened to go out.

"Long time no see, Master Allen. Seeing the slightly golden blood squeezed out of Allen's fingers, the guard smiled respectfully. The sound of the gate rumbling followed.

Walking into it, the castle courtyard came into view, the snow-stained plants and the familiar weapon racks made Alan seem to see the training life in a trance, but this memory was only instantaneous, and he threw it away

"Hey. ”

Sighing inexplicably, Alan no longer hesitated, and walked directly towards the main building of the castle.

The courtyard of the castle was very large, and along the way, there were constantly servants who recognized Allen, and there were also many fresh faces, which made his inexplicable emotions even worse, but he was suppressed by him.

When he entered the first floor of the castle, he was greeted by a meeting.

Many familiar figures sat around the conference table in the hall, Charles was sitting in the first place at this time, quietly listening to the speech of a middle-aged man with a beard, he happened to be facing the castle gate, seeing Allen's figure walking in, his solemn face couldn't help but be stunned, and then stood up with a happy face: "Allen, you're back!"

Seeing him get up suddenly, the people around the conference table all turned their heads to look at him, and Allen's straight figure came into view, and then, many faces that were either happy or frowning or expressionless appeared in front of Allen.

Eren is not a good person, it is impossible to be loved by everyone, and at the same time, he is not the direct heir of the Chrissy family, so there is no need for these subordinates of Tylen to quarrel with anything.

Tyron has a strict personality, so much so that most of his subordinates are also conservative and rigid, and in this case, Allen, who has always had a very different personality, is naturally not very well received by them, but at the same time, others are very popular with him.

"Good boy, but you're back, your brother Paul has been talking about you for a long time!" a gray-haired old man laughed when Alan appeared.

"How are you doing in the bay? I've heard that the environment is terrible, but the caviar is a must. ”

"It's time for you to take care of your friends, they're getting worse and worse!" This is a middle-aged knight with a long face, who has watched Eren grow up since he was a child, and as soon as he opens his mouth, he is admonished, but his eyes have been staring at Alan, and the corners of his mouth are unconsciously smiling.

...

The many pleasantries made Alan smile, and no matter what, these people welcomed him back.

It's just that Alan can distinguish the priorities and greet everyone for a while, and then retire temporarily - as a member of the Chrissy family, he is naturally qualified to participate here, but Alan feels that this is the stage of the Charles, and it is not appropriate for him to rush into it, and it is not too late to talk about everything after the meeting.

Walking up the stairs and looking down at the reef owners who were still talking about him, Alan smiled slightly.

And he now has more important things to do.
