Chapter 86: Conditions (II)
"You are the Druid Romon, Lord Baron, please come and see him at once, by the way, remember to bring the map of the forest that has been drawn, and if there is nothing wrong, come with me now." When the guard saw Romon he first glanced at the miraculous boy a few times before bringing the baron's words.
However, unlike the baron's somewhat stiff tone, the guard subtly spoke a lot more tactfully.
"The baron wants to see me?" At this time, only a few months had passed since the baron had given him the task, and it was still far from the end of the year, and Romon could not understand why the baron suddenly wanted to see him at this time, but since the lord had called him, he could not say no.
"Do you want to bring the map of the forest with you?" Romon nodded. "Okay, please wait a minute, I'll go in and get the map. After that, let the guards wait in the lobby, and go to their own room in the back to get the map.
Romon pondered as he walked, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt, before the time for his mission had arrived, and the baron couldn't wait to see the map?
Forget it, I've drawn more than half of it anyway, so let's take it over and let him see it, and by the way, see what the other party has in mind.
Romon returned to his room, took out the map he was going to give to the baron from his package, thought about it, put the map he had left for himself in the space, and then pushed the door open and returned to the lobby of the pharmacy.
"Romond Ruid, have you got your stuff, can we go now?" the guard asked, waiting in the middle of the hall, as soon as he came out.
"Yes, now we can go. Romon raised what he was holding and said.
Then, two people walked out of the store one after the other. Unlike Romon Apothecary, the Jerfa shop opposite has not been doing very well, but today, for some reason, the people outside are not too clean.
A carriage was parked outside the door of Jafa's pharmacy, and it seemed to be the same one that Jafa had ridden a few times before.
"Hey, this person is Master Jiefa, right? It turns out that the rumors about the town are all true. The guards at the front of the line apparently rarely left the castle, and were surprised that two new apothecaries had opened in the town at the same time.
However, hearing the other party suddenly say this, Luo Meng, who then followed out, sighed slightly.
As soon as I looked up, I saw a middle-aged man standing at the opposite door, looking at him with a hint of scrutiny, but his expression was very indifferent.
It's always like this, this fifth-level druid is always like this when he faces himself. Romon sighed again.
"Master Joffa. Although the other party always ignores him, every time he meets, Romon will still take the initiative to say hello to the other party, after all, the other party used to be his teacher, and he can't lose his politeness.
As for whether the other party responded, Romon never cared. Sure enough, seeing Romon greeting him, Druid Jefa's face sank slightly, and he didn't speak, turning around and returning to Jayfa's pharmacy.
"Let's go. Looking at the guard beside him with such an expression, Romon sighed again and said. The guard nodded, but the gossip expression on his face made Luo Meng a little depressed.
At this moment, several big men who looked a little unkind suddenly walked towards the two of them, and they still had a strong bloody aura on their bodies, so imposing that the guard, who rarely dealt with adventurers, wanted to draw his sword vigilantly.
The leader walked up to the two of them, first glanced at the guard, and then suddenly slapped Luo Meng on the shoulder, and laughed: "Luo Meng, you can't run away this time, go to Mote's place at night, I have to pour you down! Your alcohol is really good, you actually drunk me last time, and I have to win back a game today!"
"Brother Harmon, don't laugh at me, you didn't let me ...... last time," Romon said with a wry smile. This Harmon is one of the most influential and bold of the new adventurers in the town, and he has dealt with Romon a few times, and the two have a good relationship, so he always likes to go to him for a drink. The other party's bold surname always makes Luo Meng feel both liked and helpless.
"Don't you want to come? That's not possible, if you don't come, you won't give me face, you have to come at night, I'll treat you......" Where did the other party listen to him, haha smiled and patted Luo Meng on the shoulder a few times, and then, with those few people, walked away.
Looking at the relieved guards beside him, Romon shook his head. "Let's go. ”
The two finally descended the steps and walked towards the castle.
"Romong, go out again!"
"Romong, go back to Boss Mott and have a drink with us!"
"Romong, don't forget to drink with us!"
"Romon ......"
Along the way, many adventurers greeted Romon with each other. Although Romon had heard of it among the adventurers, he had seen it with his own eyes, and it still surprised the guard.
He looked at Luo Meng on the side in surprise, he didn't expect such a young boy to not only have good talent, but also have such a good popularity. Thinking of the rumors about him and Miss Elenie, he suddenly became more and more enthusiastic about Romon .
Baron's Castle. Garden.
Still reclining in the soft chair, the baron's anger had subsided considerably. He was now fiddling with a book in his hand, his eyes traced, but his mind was not on it at all.
"Where should I give him? I heard that the boy found a ruin last time, and it was some distance from the town, so it might as well ...... Give him ...... there," made up his mind, and the baron put the scroll aside.
At that moment, the guard who had just been sent out walked in from outside. "Lord Baron, Romon has been taken out of the garden. ”
"Really?" the baron thought. "Let him in. ”
"Yes......"
By the time Romon entered the garden, the baron had already put on a smiling face, and of course, when he saw that Romon had three copper wires on his mark, he was stunned.
Third-level druid, this kid turned out to be a third-level druid!
Although he is not a druid, the lord also knows that there is a second-level spell called "entanglement", this entanglement, in addition to the stone slab and the castle, as long as it is possible to breed plants, can immediately grow a very strong grass within hundreds of square meters, which can trap people within the range, and also cause him some damage.
Once this spell is cast, it can trap at least one squad of soldiers and then calmly shoot them, so from the beginning of the third-level druid, it is possible to fight against the small lord.
Seeing this situation, Luo Meng's heart was very happy, this badge, he just put it on, just now on the road, he had seen countless people's surprised expressions, but at this time it was particularly refreshing, he saluted slightly: "Lord, what do you command?"
"Oh, Romon, you're here!" the baron's dull expression turned into a smile again, and his heart changed a little, and he said to Romon with a kind expression: "How did you complete the task you told you last time?"
"Back to Lord Baron, I've finished mapping the two-thirds of the forests around town. Romon was not blinded by the other party's enthusiasm, but replied politely.
The baron's eyes narrowed. "Two-thirds of the map has been made? good, good. ”
This subtle movement of the baron was easily captured by Romon . Luo Meng's heart sank slightly, it seems that there is something wrong with today's affairs.
"Your Excellency asked me to bring the map, do you think?" So, Romon took out the map he had brought and asked tentatively.
The baron laughed, "That's right, because the area further down into the Thorn Forest is too dangerous, and I don't plan to manage it, so the map that has been drawn so far is enough for me." ”
As he spoke, he took out a document that had already been written, added a line of words, and handed it to Romone: "This is the document, last time we said that after drawing the map, we will give you a piece of land to follow, and now, I have fulfilled my original promise." ”
At the same time, he took the map handed by Luo Meng, only glanced at it, and put it aside. Then, his eyes were fixed on Romon face, noticing the change in his expression.
"Two kilometers from the ruins?" Romon looked at the location marked on the back of the certificate, somewhat surprised.
He was really a little surprised, and the Baron actually gave him this land, this ruin, but he was most satisfied with the place where he could build a druid base.
Originally, he was going to wait for the baron to ask, so he asked for the land, but before he could speak, the baron took the initiative to give him this place, and it was still within a radius of two kilometers.
I've been holding back my strength to deal with the baron's reproach, but I didn't expect it to be about it......
"What, do you think the place is not good?" the baron misunderstood what Romon meant, and his face sank slightly. "If you don't like it there, I can find you another place on the outskirts of the forest, but the town can't do it, you know, even Master Jiefa's base is in the forest, and there is no more borderless land in the town. ”
"Also, if you build a medicine field and buy and sell herbs in the town, I can also grant you a tax deduction certificate so that you can enjoy the benefits of halving the herb tax, how about it?" Seeing that Romon had not yet spoken, the baron said again.
This is not something he has thought about a long time ago, but seeing that Romon has become a third-level druid, and adding conditions, the purpose is to let Romon go to the place of the ruins to establish a base, not only to save him from finding another fief, but also to avoid the other party always being in the town and having too much contact with his daughter.
Romon is not a fool, why did the other party give himself such an obvious benefit? The joy he had just felt because of getting the land suddenly disappeared, and the rest was full of doubts: "I don't understand, why did the Baron ......"
"You don't understand, okay, then I'll make it clear to you! I'll give you the land, grant you a tax deduction, and in return, please don't go any further than Elenie, okay?" the baron stared at Romon with a grim face.
As long as Luo Meng dares to say that he disagrees, then, even if he is desperately falling out with his daughter and taking some risks, he will definitely go out and do it, and the third-level druid is already a certain limit of his tolerance.
"Keep me away from Miss Elenie?" asked Romon in a deep voice. Now he understood why the Baron was hostile to him, and why the Baron had asked him to complete the task of drawing a map in the first place, it turned out that the root of everything was here.
The baron smiled coldly: "Yes, if you want to have a good future, I have given you a future and become a servant, and many channels will be open to you...... Eleni also needs to have a good future, so, for your good and for her good, the two of you should try to have as little contact as possible in the future. I'm asking you now, as her father, that you don't stand in the way of her development. ”
Romon stared at the baron, and the baron stared at Romon as well.
After a long time, Romon exhaled and said, "I can't promise not to see Miss Elenie, but I can promise not to take the initiative to look for her." ”
The baron breathed a sigh of relief, and although he had not fully achieved his goal, it was almost done, and he said, "Well, in that case, in three days, let's hold this canonization ceremony!"
