Chapter 157: Fighting Club
'This task...... Really! β
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and chose to accept.
The quest "A Plague Tale" is very much like a transitional plot in the novice period, but the truth behind it is probably not so simple.
After all, the scope involved is too wide, and the impact is also huge.
'There seems to be a better fit for this task than to do it yourself......
Chen Lun thought to himself.
A big grinning figure flashed in my mindβ
With his messy hair, he carried two pieces of raw beef in his hand and chattered with them.
'If a person can do his best, everything will be prosperous, and I should let Maggie do it for me...... Give full play to her initiative and give her the opportunity to grow. β
Chen Lun thought to himself, and was suddenly moved by himself.
Maggie meets herself, just as Maxima meets Bole.
"Mr. Robert, Ms. Jones......"
Chen Lun turned his head to look at them and smiled slightly.
The couple was a little nervous, they could see that the identity of the black-haired young man in front of them should not be simple, but they didn't know what he wanted to do.
"I have great respect for the kindness and fearlessness of both of them."
Chen Lun gently took off his black hat and gently stroked his chest and bowed.
"Oh, that's not a ......."
Mr. and Mrs. Robert hurriedly bent down to return the salute.
Chen Lun smiled and continued:
"If you're going to save up money to go outside the city to help, I think I can fund your ......"
When Mr. and Mrs. Robert heard his words, they immediately looked surprised.
It turned into euphoria again.
"Are you telling the truth?!"
"Of course, then you don't have to use the name of the 'Black Emissary' to sell anti-epidemic medicines in the inner city...... To be honest, there are certain risks associated with this. β
Chen Lun said, raised his hand and shook it, and gestured to the paper bag in his hand.
"The 'anti-epidemic sugar cube' you developed is not bad, and the cost should be relatively low, so we can cooperate in manufacturing it......
In addition, I can recommend to you a doctor who is also very knowledgeable about these and may be able to help you fight the epidemic together. β
Chen Lun did this for two reasons.
One is that he doesn't want these two people to do things in his name anymore, so as not to cause trouble. Although he didn't admit it, he couldn't say that this identity would be useful in the future, and he couldn't stink the reputation of the "black messenger".
The second is that the husband and wife did not do anything unreasonable, and there was no need to punish them, but they could let Maggie join them and go out to investigate the plague together.
This will not only allow Maggie to increase the accumulation of mysteries, but also get the recipe for this "anti-epidemic candy cube". When the time comes, it will be improved, and it will be able to be sold to players as a regular medicine after the open beta.
After all, this plague does not seem to be going away anytime soon.
"Oh sir, you are so generous...... Don't know your name yet. β
Robert said respectfully.
"Jakespet."
"Mr. Jack, it is true that as you might have guessed, the cost of this 'sugar bar' is not high, because it needs to take care of the poor families outside the city...... My wife and I were even ready not to take money. β
Robert and his wife, Jones, looked at each other and smiled.
"Also, you need to refer a doctor, of course, no problem, but this is a very dangerous thing, please be sure to relay this information......
Regarding funding, you don't have to give too much money, we only need 50 gold pounds. β
He said, his tone a little apprehensive.
Although it doesn't take much, 50 gold pounds is not a small amount.
In the past few days, most of the money earned by the whole team working has been put into operation...... Fortunately, I have a hundred gold pounds left on hand, otherwise it would be embarrassing. β
Chen Lun nodded.
"No problem."
He pretended to take the money out of his arms, but in fact he took out the small pocket from the Blood Poetry Ring and poured the currency from the panel into his pocket.
He immediately reached out and handed the bag containing fifty gold coins to Robert.
"Thank you...... Thank you! β
Robert and his wife, Jones, had smiles on their faces.
[Robert's favorability towards you has increased! Currently for intimacy! γ
[Jones's opinion of you has increased!] Currently for intimacy! γ
"So...... I wish you all the best. β
Chen Lun smiled slightly.
Then he suddenly smelled a burnt smell.
Ms. Jones let out a sigh, then hurriedly ran back to the large clay pot and began to stir up the liquid syrup again.
"Mr. Robert, farewell."
Chen Lun chuckled and lowered the brim of his hat.
Then, in Robert's respectful eyes, he turned away.

Chen Lun came to the foil fighting club again.
After entering the hall on the first floor, the hostess walked straight over.
She saw that it was this familiar handsome guy, and the smile on her face was even brighter.
Thinking about what the boss Charles explained, he vaguely felt that this Mr. Jack's status was high, and he was a little annoyed that he didn't leave his contact information last time.
I can't leave it out this time.
"Good day, Mr. Jack."
The hostess held the notepad and leaned forward slightly.
The darkness of the valley brightens up and the scenery becomes more beautiful.
She casually pulled out a gilded card from the clipboard.
"This is a limited VIP card for the 'Foil Fighting Club', Mr. Charles has specially explained it, and when you come, I will give it to you......"
The hostess handed the VIP card to Chen Lun.
By the way, her fingers gently hooked the man's palm.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
He felt that under the bronzing card, there was also a note attached to it.
Looking up, the waitress opened her red lips slightly, and her tone was soft:
"Mr. Jack, you can call me Candace...... Mr. Charles is out for a while, but will be back soon, you can go inside and have a look. β
"Miss Candace, thank you."
Chen Lun smiled slightly and raised the bronzing VIP card in his hand.
The young hostess named Candace saw his smile and was in a trance for a moment, and couldn't help but bite her lip.
"This is a limited VIP card for the club, well, you can come to the club at any time and do any project with it...... There are also a variety of training courses, which are also free to learn.
Of course, if you get tired, you can also eat, bathe, and rest at the club. β
Speaking of "bathing" and "check-in", Candace quietly winked at him.
Chen Lun smiled lightly.
"Okay, I got it...... In that case, I'll go in and have a casual look, and if Mr. Charles comes back, please let me know. β
With that, he walked around Candace and headed straight for the club.
Candace was left standing still.
"Can't he see my hints so obviously......? Why?! β
She frowned, looking at the tall back that was slowly leaving.
"Is it because I'm not beautiful enough and my body isn't hot enough?! Or is it ...... This guy is a guy?! Damn it! β
Candace stomped her foot, clutched her clipboard, and walked away with her head down.
'Left your address?' Tsk......'
Chen Lun walked slowly down the corridor, opened the note and glanced at it. Immediately, he rolled the note into powder and flipped it in the trash can.
He had no interest in this kind of one-night stand that was purely thrill-seeking.
Boom! Boom!
"Hah!"
Table tennis! Boom!!
"Hey!"
Passing by two training rooms, Chen Lun could see several men boxing and weightlifting inside through the glass floor-to-ceiling windows.
A muscular man with a bare bare punch on the sandbag, splashing beads of sweat and making a popping sound.
Chen Lun paused for a moment and stopped for a moment.
The muscular men in the training room couldn't help but smile when they found a tall gentleman in a dress standing outside the window.
"With such a thin little white face, I can beat him all over the ground with one punch."
One of them whispered, and the others couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha......"
"I guess it's the guy who came to the club to have fun, but it's a pity that there is no official game today, otherwise I can make a lot of money from these guys."
ββ¦β¦β
Chen Lun showed a polite smile and turned to leave.
Although I can't hear their conversations, I have strong dynamic vision and can roughly judge what they are saying based on the shape of their mouths.
He didn't care about the ridicule behind these people's backs.
Of course, if the other party really wants to try to make themselves find their teeth all over the ground, maybe you can try to make them scratch their heads.
After staying away from these training rooms, Chen Lun found several other training rooms along the way, which were occupied by some guests who were using various cold weapons.
There are various types of swords such as longswords, short swords, broadswords, and two-handed swords, as well as long-handled weapons such as spears, spears, halberds, and war hammers, and even lesser-known weapons such as large axes, chain shackles, and long whips.
All kinds, all kinds of things.
Ping Pong!
Chen Lun listened to the crisp sound of collision in his ears, and cast his eyes with great interest.
He also found several promotional posters on the bulletin board in the hallway, which seemed to be various types of martial arts exchange competitions.
These competitions were equipped with prize money, which greatly increased Chen Lun's interest.
But when he saw that the number of prize money was only a few, at most a dozen gold pounds, his interest was like enthusiasm after just finishing a certain sport, and it quickly faded.
"Hey! Mr. Jack! β
Suddenly, a voice came, and Chen Lun paused.
Looking back, I saw that the old aristocratic man who was dressed decently and had a bit of ruffianism was leaning against the wall and greeting himself.
"What a coincidence, I met you again today...... Would you like a drink? β
Siebert held a long sword in his left hand and a glass of red wine in his right hand, and smiled profusely.
"Thank you, Mr. Siebert, for your kindness, but not anymore."
Chen Lun walked over and politely declined.
"Oh, that's a pity, this red wine is a ...... I got at a high price from the auction of the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce."
Siebert leaned over, looking mysterious.
"This wine is not only rich and mellow, but also has special effects!"
He winced his eyebrows and gave a look that a man would understand.
Chen Lun's face remained unchanged, but he secretly slandered himself in his heart.
'The bottle of red wine that Siebert drank must have been made by me......
Siebert drank the wine in one gulp, snorted, and placed the glass on the windowsill at random.
He lifted the hilt of his sword upside down and pointed to the training room.
"Mr. Jack, why don't you come in with me? It's the only open-air training room in the club, and it's huge, and my sword teacher is in it...... How about I show you both hands? I just learned a few tricks! β
Siebert flicked his sword with a snap.
Chen Lun was quite interested in this, and also wanted to see the so-called swordsmanship. His fighting skills have always relied purely on his own instincts and have not been systematically studied.
And the Beast Tamer and the Fortune Teller did not give him any experience in this area.
"Yes, that's what I mean, Mr. Siebert."
Chen Lun said with a smile.
