Five or six minutes later, Crane was the first to reach the finish line, holding his legs and gasping for air, followed by Ike, who was from the same village as him.

Melly wrinkled her eyebrows together in distress, and her little hands were about to tear the corners of her clothes.

"Let's rest for a while." Claire said softly.

Hunter immediately ordered those who had reached the finish line to rest.

Claire nudged Melly and said softly, "Go find your brother." ”

"Oooh!" Melly ran over in hindsight, opening her little fleshy hand to hug Crane, but Crane held down her little brain.

"Don't hug me, I'm covered in mud right now."

"Humph! Bad brother, don't hug Melly anymore. Melly crossed her waist and dissatisfied.

Crane poked her in the head, "How did you get here?" Also with the Viscount. ”

Speaking of this, Melly's eyes lit up, and she took Crane's hand and said excitedly: "Melly didn't know that the eldest brother was actually Lord Viscount, and Melly brought me here on the way here." ”

Crane poked Melly's head again, "I haven't said how you got here." ”

Melly closed her mouth and looked down at her heels, not saying a word.

"Sneaking out of the house? Didn't tell your mom? ”

Melly was anxious, "I'm here to deliver delicious food to my brother!" So saying, he opened his bamboo basket and took out the wheat bread and black roast meat inside.

Crane took a look and smiled, then picked it up and put it in his mouth, although it was not as good as the food he ate in the morning, but it was indeed delicious for his family.

After eating a few bites of bread, Crane put the food back in the basket, "Brother is not short of food here, don't bring anything over in the future, you know?" ”

"But...... But Melly misses her brother! Melly was about to cry, she felt like she was about to die after not seeing her brother for a day.

Crane touched Melly's head and comforted: "Brother can go back twice a month, you wait for your brother at home, and I'll buy you candy when the time comes." ”

"Oooh!" Speaking of sugar, Melly suddenly remembered something, took out the two Skittles that Claire gave her before from her arms, took out one and handed it over, "No, this is the candy that Melly asked for with her big brother, this one is for you." ”

Crane took it from Melly's hand, and then saw Melly put another candy back in her arms, and wondered, "Won't you eat it?" ”

Melly continued to hide the candy deeper, and said: "Melly has eaten it, this one is taken back to my mother to eat, Melly thinks the sugar is delicious, but my mother always says that the brown sugar bought back is for Melly, she doesn't taste it, this candy will definitely change her mind!" ”

As she spoke, Melly's eyes seemed to recall the beauty of the candy before, and she said excitedly to Crane: "Brother, eat it quickly, it's sweet and sour, it's better than brown sugar." ”

Crane was stunned, glanced at the candy in his hand, and just wanted to speak.

Melly said again: "Hurry up and eat, or Merry will be angry." It's really delicious! ”

Crane put the candy in his arms and touched her little head, "Brother just finished training, can't eat, wait until the evening to eat." ”

Melly's little face became bitter, but she quickly recovered, and advised, "Then brother, you must eat." ”

"Uh-huh."

The two made small talk for a while, but the break was always brief.

"Bunnies, get me up, it's enough to rest for so long!" Hunter's majestic voice came.

At this time, Claire also leaned over, took Melly's hand, and said to Crane, "Don't worry, I will have someone send her home safely." ”

Crane immediately stood up and gave a knightly salute, "Thank you, Lord Viscount!" ”

Claire nodded slightly, and then took Melly into the carriage with her.

Melly is also very well-behaved, knowing that this will affect her brother's training, so she honestly followed Claire into the carriage.

Inside the Viscount's Palace.

"You can play casually here, I'm going to do experiments, and I'll send you home after lunch." Claire said to Melly.

Melly looked a little cramped at the huge castle, where every room was larger than her own, and countless times more ornate.

However, after Claire left, Melly sat on the sofa for a while, and after secretly eating several fruits, she was not so nervous, especially since there was a sister from their village among the maids here, and Melly was even more relaxed.

Moreover, she was a guest invited back by Claire, so although Reagan still did not treat a commoner like her, and would not treat her harshly with a maid, he told her that she could not go to the basement and the sixth floor, and let Merry play around in the Viscount's Palace.

Walking around the Viscount's Palace, Melly followed the scent into the kitchen and met Yuna, who was preparing lunch, and the two quickly became good friends.

……

At night, when the moon hung on the branches, Claire came out of the laboratory in the basement.

After shaking off the blood in her hand and finding the wash basin to wash it off, Claire's brow was still furrowed.

"It seems that it is not so simple to develop a potion that can quickly cultivate fighting energy, I have killed dozens of experimental mice, and I still have no clue." Claire sighed.

He glanced at the books he brought back from the royal capital, and carefully studied those books about Dou Qi, there were potions for restoring Dou Qi and stimulating potential, but there were few potions for cultivating Dou Qi, only some medicines that assisted in stimulating the body, which could slightly shorten the time for cultivating Dou Qi.

However, these potions have been used in the military camp for a long time, and if there is no new method, then it is estimated that I will really have to wait for another two years.

After seeing his young master come out, Reagan immediately leaned in.

"Young master, dinner is ready, do you want to eat?"

Claire suddenly came to her senses, and it was already night, so she asked, "Did Melly send her home?" ”

"After inviting Miss Merry to lunch, I asked the groom to send her back and deliver it safely."

"Hmm." Claire nodded and walked in the direction of the restaurant.

A short time after she sat down at the table, a steak of honey-soaked meat was placed in front of Claire.

Picking up a knife and fork and cutting a piece of meat at random, Claire looked at Yuna on the side, thinking to herself that if she had time one day, she would have to teach her how to cook some Chinese food, otherwise he would be depressed sooner or later if he ate these things every day.

Seeing Claire looking at her, Yuna blushed and lowered her head, not knowing what to think about in her heart.

Dinner was quickly over, and after wiping her mouth with a napkin, Claire asked, "What time is it?" ”

"Back to the young master, it's half past ten."

"Hmm." Claire stood up and walked up the stairs, saying, "Don't let anyone go up to the sixth floor." ”

Today is a trading opportunity that he has been waiting for for a week, and he was still struggling with whether to save and make friends when he next trades, but now it seems that he should use it first.

"Yes!" Reagan didn't follow either, and stopped below to direct the maids to begin cleaning up the dining room.

……

The moon hung right on the top tower of the penthouse, and Claire could see the moon through the huge transparent glass.

And he stopped flipping the book in his hand, "It's ...... at twelve"

Claire's mind moved, a rudimentary data panel appeared in his line of sight, and then he looked at the upper right corner, and sure enough, the trading point became 1!

Claire didn't hesitate and said directly: "Start trading!" ”

The familiar swirling ripples reappeared, and a strange aura emanated.

Even Claire, who now has a complete grasp of the original owner's magical knowledge, has not been able to know how she managed to make this world-spanning transaction.

Claire's eyes were fixed on the vortex in front of her, waiting patiently.

"I hope I can find a better trader this time......"
