Chapter 36: Experiments
A figure stood in the doorway, glaring at Lynn angrily, she was surprised to see that Tarrant was also here, "Tarrant, why are you here!"
"Katrina, I'm ......"
"You must have found out that the Feathered Angel is Lynn!Damn, you're here on your own!" Caterina almost rushed in front of Tarrant, her expression as if she was going to eat him, "Remember what I said last night!"
"Wait, what...... The Feathered Angel is Lynn?!" In desperation, Tarrant pretended to be innocent.
"I've thought about it for a long time, and the voice that laughed at me was clearly Lynn, and he was the Feathered Angel!" Katrina turned to look at Lynn, daring to laugh at the great thief.
Tarrant stood between the two, "Wait, Katrina, there must be a misunderstanding here, how can Lynn be a feather angel?"
With Lynn's wisdom, he immediately understood the situation in front of him, and also followed Tarrant and said innocently: "Katrina, we haven't seen each other for a few years, but I didn't expect you to say that I was a thief when we met rarely." β
"The voice of the Feathered Angel is the same as yours, can you deny it?" Catrina was still sure, and she glanced at Tarrant, "Otherwise, why are you here so early?"
"Me?" Tarrant looked at Lynn and then at Katrina, "I'm just here to catch up, last night's experience reminds me of the days when I fought with Lynn, he knows more about the sewer structure than I do, and by the way, I asked about other places where there might be hidden secret doors." The similarity of the voice is not evidence of this, maybe the Feather Angel deliberately imitated his voice. β
Tarrant said very seriously, and Katrina couldn't help but be a little short of breath, "So, you haven't discovered the identity of the Feather Angel yet?"
"No, but I'm sure Lynn isn't, he can't count his money, so why steal it. β
Lynn seized the opportunity to nodded, very helpless, "Katrina, I know that you have always been very prejudiced against me, and I used to laugh at your spell level ......"
"Shut up!" Catrina raised her fist, Lynn from the novel that she was a half-assed mage, "even if you're not a feathered angel, I'd want to beat you up." β
"Haha, Tarrant, I really don't understand why you don't change girls, is Sante the only one left?" Lynn laughed rarely, "Last week, I met a girl at a drinking party in the Hornagar Empire, she loves adventure stories, she is not bad, she has a good body, and she has a chance to ......"
Katrina finally couldn't help but kick Lynn, leaving a white footprint on Lynn's black pants, with Lynn's current status, no one dared to do this, Catrina did, which made Lynn happy, he got more freedom in front of his old friends, as if he had returned to his careless childhood, and others would only flatter him.
"What's wrong?" A soft female voice came from the doorway, and a long-haired woman in a long white dress stood in the doorway, looking at Katrina in surprise, not understanding what was happening.
Tarrant had never seen her, but she could guess some, she was in her twenties, very beautiful, her dress revealed an obvious aristocratic temperament, her long skirt was embroidered with a lot of feathers, the current court elements, either royalty or nobility, Tarrant, the daughter of the Lynn family, basically knew her, so she was not a member of the family, maybe a girlfriend.
Lynn walked to the door and took the woman's arm, "Rebecca, please allow me to introduce, these two are my friends, Paladin Tarrant of the Shelter Light, and Castrina the mage of the Magic Academy, they are the two of them made the headlines in the newspaper yesterday, the hero who defeated the evil mage Wensley, we are studying some trade matters", Lynn introduced to Tarrant again, "This is my wife, Rebecca." β
Rebecca smiled and bowed, "It's an honor to meet two adults." β
From her actions, Tarrant came to a conclusion that Rebecca had a very strict etiquette education, and she did not react to the word "Wensley", which proves that she doesn't care about the news, she should be the kind of aristocrat who likes to dress up and pay attention to one-sided etiquette, this kind of character does not match Lynn, Lynn must have other reasons for choosing her, and the introduction just now is also an official statement without emotion, it seems that his relationship with his wife can only be regarded as average.
Rebecca kept smiling and continued, "Since you're talking about trade, I won't bother," and after receiving a nod of agreement from Lynn, she saluted Tarrant again, then withdrew to close the door gently.
Katrina smiled evilly, "I didn't expect you to get married, someone is willing to marry you, it's a surprise!"
"Business needs, marriage allows our two families to have greater benefits", Lynn looked at Katrina with malicious intent, "So, can you get married?"
"I don't need you to care, I'm popular!" The two of them could talk all day together, and Katrina completely forgot what she was doing in a rage early in the morning.
"Tarrant, you should teach her what etiquette and rules are, this kind of temper is very difficult to marry. β
"I like this temper," Tarrant said, squinting.
"God, one is abusive, one is sadistic, you are very compatible. Lynn said she had nothing to say.
Through the window, Tarrant saw a man in the garden striding towards him, dressed in a crisp court robe, and from the size of his stride and the speed of his stride, Tarrant surmised that he was a soldier, "Lynn, a guest is coming." β
Lynn looked at the time, "I made an appointment in the morning, the zircon crystal mine on the border has been infested by goblins, I need the king to send troops to garrison, if you don't mind, please wait a while, I'll have lunch when it's over." β
"Not uncommon!" Katrina pulled Tarrant, "let's go." β
There was a knock at the door, and Lynn tidied up her clothes and sat behind her desk, like a boring rich businessman, whose role changed quickly, "Please come in." β
The visitor pushed open the door, saw that there were two other people in the room, bowed his head and said, "I'm sorry, my lord, I didn't disturb you, did you?"
"No, it's just the right time, please take a seat," Lynn didn't get up to greet her, but gestured to the seat at her desk.
When the visitor passed by Tarrant, his eyes drifted, and when he sat down in front of Lynn, he asked respectfully, "So, is it convenient to talk now?"
Tarrant added knowingly, "Lord Lynn, let's take our leave. β
"Okay, what we just discussed, do as I say", Lynn's tone was very affirmative, this momentum could not be rejected by others.
Tarrant closed the door, and Katrina asked, "What did you discuss?"
"Funding the Shelter Light", Tarrant finds himself making excuses and has some flair for directions.
"He earns more money than the Imperial Treasury, but it may be more difficult to take money out of his treasury than to catch the Feathered Angel. β
"His zirconium crystal empire also has to spend millions of gold coins a day to function properly, and there are not many gold coins at his disposal. Let's go to the institute. "Tarrant didn't have any arrangements for the whole day, and he could take Katrina to the research institute.
"What about the Angels?" Catrina looked back at Lynn's manor, "I still think the Angels and Lynn have a similar voice, especially when laughing at my spells!"
"The matter of the feather angel can be stopped, I will hand it over to someone else, there are more important things for me to do. β
"What?" Catrina paused, "Are you tracking down the Psivac again?"
On a sensitive topic, Katrina was disgusted by linking this underground creature with Tarrant, who hurriedly said, "No, it's a falcon, I don't know the specifics." β
A waitress came after her, "Your Excellency, please wait a moment," and when Tarrant stopped, "Lord Lynn has prepared a carriage for you, right at the door." β
"Okay, please thank Lord Lynn for your kindness on our behalf", Tarrant saw a carriage parked at the gate in the distance, and the efficiency of the rich man was worth learning.
Lynn's carriage was very luxuriously decorated, with silk curtains, gold-dusted carriages, silver-plated handles, crystal bell ropes, down cushions, and even the horses were all pure black.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the institute, and Tarrant felt much more relaxed when he came out of the "golden cart", and he took Katrina's hand and almost dragged her off, she was completely obsessed with the car.
In the next day, Tarrant did three things in the research institute, the first thing was to read Katrina's flip book, the mages of the magic research institute are divided into three stages, accumulation, attempt, and development, Katrina belongs to the first type, her understanding and mastery of spells are not mature enough, and she is not mature enough to spell materials, There is also a lack of knowledge about spell conditions and other related knowledge, and she must learn more from books, which usually makes people feel very boring, but Katrina is very enthusiastic about learning these knowledge, and often forgets about the surrounding environment, except for lunch time, Tarrant basically does not talk to Catrina.
At lunchtime, Tarrant met a mage, and he warmly invited Tarrant to participate in a spell practice, which was the second thing Tarrant did, a bottle of blood-red liquid, the mage explained that it was a new formula of power potions, the existing power potions were very costly, and only belonged to a few adventurers, and the goal of researching the new power potion recipe was to greatly reduce the cost of making it, so that Cyrenso's army could configure it, and if successful, it would indeed make CyrenΓ§o have the strongest ground forces. The mage also promised that once the recipe was successful, the first word of Tarrant's name could be added to the signature in recognition of his contributions.
The bottle of potion looked very bright, with a slight fragrance, which could arouse the appetite, Tarrant looked at the very confident mage, drank it in one gulp, there was no obvious change in his body at that time, when the mage asked Tarrant to break a brick, Tarrant suddenly fainted, and it took three hours to wake up, the priest who treated him guessed that he had been exposed to some kind of stunner, and then, the crappy mage gave all the remaining potions to Tarrant, and named the potion "Tarrant Type I" He claimed that he would do his best to improve the recipe and make "Tarrant Type II", and then find Tarrant to cooperate.
The third thing made Tarrant even more depressed, another mage found an augmentation to enhance the power of the fire explosion, this mage was the one who blew up in the hall of the research institute the night before yesterday, his body recovered quickly, and he devoted himself to the study of this kind of augmentation, he was not sure how far the power of the enhanced fire explosion could be on living creatures, and he needed a volunteer.
Despite the mage's promise that he would cast the best fire protection spell on Tarrant, Tarrant stubbornly remembered that he had a mission in Sanctuary Light that he needed to do immediately, so he had to say goodbye regretfully.
Slipping out of the Institute, Tarrant hailed a car and headed straight home, driving him crazy with the Institute's maniacs, who completely ruined the chance he could have spent all day with Katrina.
Stewart wasn't at home, Tarrant climbed upstairs and began to think about how to contact Falcon, he couldn't go to Wolf's Tavern, where there was an enemy's eyeliner, and Wolf didn't say anything about secret contact information, it was all stalkers who came to the door, Tarrant was worried about this matter, and Stewart's voice came from downstairs, "Tarrant, you're not there." β
"I'm upstairs. β
"That's good, I thought there was a burglar in the house, there have been a lot of thefts in Siante lately, and they are stealing rich people. β
Tarrant smiled knowingly, and the butler said that it was the Feather Angel, "The Feather Angel will not come here to steal, because we have no money at home." β
Stuart pushed open the door and smiled slightly, "I have good news for you yet." β
