Chapter 15: The Hymn of the Night
"I've been out on a study tour for a while, and I've just recently finished my homework and come back to check it out. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Oh, what are you studying? Kenneth was interested.
"General History of the Continent. The young man's face was not red and his heart was not beating, but magicians are the group that believes that knowledge is power, and most magicians have been studying hard all their lives, and under the training of orthodox academic magicians like Steines and Deman, Rob has a wide range of knowledge, and it is not easy for him to say this.
"It's amazing. The knight exclaimed from the bottom of his heart.
The drunkard next to him couldn't stand the endless greetings between the two, and rushed up to interrupt them, "Damn, what are you chirping, don't you see that I'm going to beat someone, uncle, idle people and others get away!"
"Wait a minute. Kenneth smiled apologetically at the boy.
"It's okay, you get busy first. Robb stepped aside, but he didn't go far, he also wanted to see how the knights usually worked.
"Soon, it's almost time for me to call it a day, and we'll go have a drink." Kenneth sent out the invitation.
"Okay. Rob readily agreed, and then saw that Mr. Knight quickly entered the working state, changed his face to a serious expression, turned to the drunken man and said, "According to Article 15 of the new version of the public security regulations of Ryan Town, drunken people who cause trouble in the street will be punished with three days of hard labor, please come with us." ”
The drunkard laughed, "Hahahaha, scare me?" I don't know grandpa I was scared, I think when I was panning for gold in Steward, you didn't know where to feed, put on the armor and really thought you were a warrior?"
"Since I've been to so many places, it's all the more important to follow the local laws. Kenneth sighed, and then rushed to the target with lightning speed, and the drunkard was still chattering and boasting about his brilliant achievements that year, and there was no reaction at all, and his right arm was already in his hand.
"Take a good rest, and we'll talk when you're sober. The knight made a clean back fall, causing the drunkard's head to come into contact with the ground with a vigorous close, and the drunkard let out a half-scream, and then closed his eyes, and simply passed out.
Someone whistled, and the mercenaries around couldn't help but applaud the captain of the guard.
"Carry him back and throw him in the dungeon to sober him up. Kenneth said to the two young guards behind him.
"Yes, Captain. ”
Kenneth took off the black armor on his body, which was a gift from his father when he became a first-order apprentice knight, and the mayor hired the best blacksmith in town to forge it for two months before making this equipment, Kenneth has always cherished it, and he did not forget to wipe it every day.
He asked the two guards to bring the drunk back to the garrison along with his armor, and then patted Rob on the shoulder, "Let's go, you want to have a drink, you're back just in time, Ryan has had a lot of new gadgets lately." ”
"It's so much changed here that I almost don't recognize it. Rob sighed.
"Who says it's not, it's only been half a year since that dungeon was discovered, and Ryan is almost the same every day, not to mention you, sometimes I get confused when I walk down the street. Kenneth pushed open the door to the tavern and almost bumped into a half-elf, who was about to curse, but when he saw that it was the captain of the guard, he swallowed the words back into his stomach and walked away.
"There are a lot more unfamiliar faces all of a sudden, which is really worrying. Kenneth's eyes were full of worry, "It's okay to say now, after all, that dungeon has only been open for half a year, and the people who came to Ryan are just ordinary adventurers, and the most powerful ones in it are only some first- and second-order professionals, and the guards can barely manage it, and when the upper layers are almost developed, there should be masters one after another, and I am afraid that Ryan will become more and more uncalm at that time, I have written to Lord Duke, asking him to send some more people...... Ah, I'm sorry, I wanted to ask you about your experience over the years, but I didn't know that much about it. ”
The captain of the guard was a little embarrassed, "Anyway, everyone's life is much better now than before, and Ryan is getting better and better, so we don't have any reason to complain about this." ”
"Uh-huh, that's right. ”
The tavern is very lively, this is the favorite place of the brave, even in the middle of the night, it is crowded, plus the boss is very business-minded, specially hired a few coolly dressed cat girls to make wine trays, every day there are many mercenaries who are obsessed with lust and accidentally drink their own money. But those girls were smart enough to know who they could do to them, and they wouldn't be able to provoke a snake like Kenneth.
The captain of the guard held a long wine list, as if he wanted to see a flower from above, but he stared at him for a long time and didn't know what to order, although he has been managing the security of this place, but he is ashamed to say that he has not actually entered this tavern, firstly, because he has been busy with official business for a period of time, he needs to stay awake at all times, and secondly, Kenneth's other half is a devout believer, and he is very strict with him on weekdays, prohibiting him from setting foot in similar places, for which the captain of the guard is often secretly laughed at by his subordinates.
But this time he met Rob, who he hadn't seen for many years, Kenneth said that he would invite the boy to have a drink, and he had also made a bold statement before that he wanted Rob to taste something new, but he didn't expect that there were so many new things, and he had never heard of most of the names on this wine list, and he didn't know how to order it, for fear of accidentally making some jokes.
Rob also seemed to see Kenneth's embarrassment, so he pointed to an elven wine called the Hymn on it and said, "Luckily, I've always wanted to try this." ”
Kenneth closed the wine list and turned to the waiter, "Don't you hear that, we'll drink this tonight." ”
"Okay. The waitress took the wine list, and a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes, the owner behind this tavern called Adventurer's Heart is not an ordinary person, his biggest hobby is to collect fine wine, so the wine list of Adventurer's Heart is at least three times longer than that of some other ordinary taverns, and there is no price tag after each drink, which is naturally done to make it easier for these beautiful catwomen in the store to fool the big heads. But other than that, it doesn't mean to test the eyesight of the drinker.
Compared to the other unscrupulous taverns, the owner of the Adventurer's Heart is a principled man, and does not inflate the price of his wines, making only one-third of the profit on each wine. The elf wine called the Holy Night's Verse that the boy just ordered can be ranked in the top five in this wine list in terms of rarity, but the price is only a little more expensive than ordinary wine, and the taste is also very good, which is the most cost-effective wine in the heart of adventurers.
But it's a pity that everyone is probably frightened by this cold and arrogant name, as well as the four words of elf production, and no one dares to order it after more than three months of opening, and it has been waiting until today, but it was Rob who took the lead.
