The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Lamar was quite responsible, and he spent a lot of time inquiring around before learning from a secret channel that Renne might participate in the canonization assessment.

Just as it happened, he received an order from the officiant to return and report, so today's scene happened.

After hearing Lamar's investigation results, the officiant didn't reply for a while.

As a result, the entire underground hall fell into a dark and brief silence, and Lamar's own breathing could be heard clearly.

The officiant was speechless at the moment!

Isn't this Renne a new knight?

Why can't he deal with the other party several times? Instead, he tends to become stronger and stronger!

This is simply unreasonable!

The Black Flame Prayer at the previous time point was also missed due to the failure of the blood sacrifice in Gold Flash Town.

Right now, preparing for the Black Flame Prayer Ceremony at the next time point is the top priority.

But if Ren doesn't take care of it, not only will he lose face, but the other party may also disrupt the meeting's actions again.

At this time, the officiant's tall and fat body moved slightly on the large chair. He looked sideways at Lamar and asked: "Just now, you said that this Renn went to Rosby City to participate in the canonization assessment. ?”

"Yes, officiant." Lamar nodded firmly.

"Then do you think he can pass the assessment?"

Lamar wanted to say of course, but he felt that he could not raise the enemy's ambition and destroy his own prestige, so after considering his words, he said:

"Should...can?"

The fat officiant didn't mind Lamar's greasy questioning tone at the end, but continued: "If he can, then after he comes back, he will be waiting for the award and promotion, right?"

"Yes, officiant, according to the official procedures of the empire, this is how it is." It seemed that he was aware of the officiant and just wanted to confirm the official procedures of the empire with him. The rhythm of Lamar's speech immediately became much brisker.

"Well, Lamar, please contact Baron Alonso and tell him about the situation. Now that Renne has become a noble, let's find a way to promote him to the position of Sheriff of Fishing Port Town."

As the officiant spoke, a pair of small eyes flashed on his fat face.

However, Maral frowned when he heard this and said: "Master Priest, are you trying to use the pirates' hands to solve the problem?"

"It's not Poseidon."

"Poseidon Cult? Are they starting to appear too? Aren't you afraid that the empire will clear them out again?" Lamar asked hurriedly with a startled look on his face.

"Yes, after being silent for a long time, they have also begun to move. Otherwise, why do you think the pirates were so cooperative with our actions last time? The reason why is the support of the Poseidon Cult."

I see!

Lamar looked stunned.

No wonder there was such a tacit understanding between the timing of the pirates' attacks and the timing of the Black Flame Church's actions in the previous operations. The other party shared a considerable part of the Meister County Empire's official power. force.

He didn't understand at the time that the Black Flame Church had nothing to restrain the pirates. It turned out that the chief priest had contacted the Poseidon Church.

It all makes sense!

"Lamar, go to Alonso's place to get this done. Next, our focus is on preparing for the Black Flame Prayer Ceremony." After a while, the deep voice of the officiant sounded again.

"As you command, Master Priest, I will go now." Lamar cupped his chest and bowed before slowly retreating.

——

Rosby City, Navy House Inn.

The tall Haas is saying goodbye to Renne.

"Ren, I currently live in Larchmond Fishing Port, adjacent to the Gold Coast. You can go south along Rosby City and arrive in about two days' journey. When you are free, remember to come and find me."

"By the way, stewed giant-spurred salmon is a special delicacy here. When you come, I will definitely take you to try it." When talking about stewed giant-spurred salmon, Haas's Adam's apple visibly squirmed.

I didn’t expect this kid to be a foodie!

And Ren heard a familiar word 'Gold Coast'.

Gunther, the swordsman master Claire mentioned in her letter, lives in seclusion on the Gold Coast.

Perhaps, it is really possible that he will meet Haas again in the near future.

Renn had been considering whether to take advantage of this time when he came to Rosby City to take the assessment and continue south to the Gold Coast to learn from the swordsman master, or whether to go back home first.

After thinking about it, Ren decided to go home first.

Because if you go to Master Gunther to study, it is estimated that it will take at least a month or at most several months. If you do not notify in advance, your parents will definitely be worried.

Moreover, he is also the deputy security officer of Goldsmith Town. If he is away for a month, Hamilton will at least inform him in advance.

"Okay, Haas, I will definitely come to you when I get the chance." Renn said with a smile and nodded.

"Bon Voyage!"

After bidding farewell to Haas, Renne began to wander around Rosby City.

On the day he first arrived, he had already walked around the vicinity of the Navy House Hotel, and he had a certain understanding of Rosby City.

Judging from the size of the entire city, Rosby City is nearly twice the size of Meiste City, and it is also more prosperous. This is also one of the characteristics of a trading port city.

Generally speaking, a trade-oriented city located on the seaside will be much more prosperous than an inland city as long as the sea transportation is smooth and trade continues.

Since he only had three days, Renn was not in a hurry. He planned to visit some lively alleys or near pubs first.

Maybe like the Bat Market, this Nightingale Market is also located in a quiet place amidst the hustle and bustle.

Under the warm winter sun, bursts of relatively warm and humid sea breeze blew, bringing a slightly salty smell. In the busy stalls along the way, Renn saw more varieties than in the busy streets of Meist. of seafood, shell products and goods from remote islands.

After walking around for a long time, Renn couldn't find the entrance to Nightingale Market, which made him a little surprised.

After spending most of the day wandering around, he had basically visited the more prosperous and lively areas of Rosby City.

Could it be said that the location of this Nightingale Market is in the opposite direction, in a noble mansion or in a wealthy area?

After thinking about it for a while, Ren felt that this possibility was not very likely.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Ren's mind, and he thought of it.

There was a place that he might have overlooked before.

That's it. Pier!

There are multiple piers in the entire city of Rosby, such as naval piers, fishing boat piers, cargo ship piers, etc., of which there are two fishing boat piers alone.

So Renne began to search from dock to dock.

Soon, when Ren arrived near the cargo ship dock, he saw a nightingale pattern not far from a tavern called Sailor's House.

This made Renn look happy and walked over.

Just like the bat market, after passing through a certain phantom formation, Ren came to a market, which still had the familiar smell.

Most of the people coming and going were wearing hoods or even veils, covering their whereabouts. Some showed their faces openly, but relatively speaking, there were far fewer of them.

There are many people in the whole market, but the voices are very soft.

At this time, the red-haired girl Evelin was also purchasing some raw materials for potions in the Nightingale Market. Soon, she noticed the familiar figure.

"Huh? Why did he come here?"

The girl couldn't help but stop when she saw Ren wandering around.

To be honest, Evelin was quite curious about Ren who committed the ship bombing incident during the canonization assessment.

Although her personality is a bit introverted and arrogant, she also needs to be divided into partners.

For her whose strength ranks almost first among the aristocratic children of the same age in Rosby City, a little pride and reserve are inevitable when facing most of the so-called 'young talents'.

But Renn was different. This person's performance in the canonization assessment was so amazing that she admired him very much.

As for the girl's gaze, Ren, who was very sensitive, naturally noticed it.

Although the other party was wearing a hood, the strand of red hair exposed and the familiar bright eyes made Renne quickly identify that the other party was the red-haired girl Evelin.

Soon, their eyes met.

Renn immediately smiled, which made Evelin immediately smile back.

After thinking for a while, Evelin took the initiative to come over and said: "Hello, Knight of Ren, I am Evelin. Your performance in the canonization assessment is quite amazing."

"You're welcome, Knight Evelyn. Haas introduced your power and beauty to me. In comparison, I was just taking advantage of you."

Evelin covered her mouth, giggled, and said: "Knight Ren, I thought that a person as powerful as you must be busy practicing and not good at speaking, but now it seems that is not the case."

"By the way, Knight Ren, I would like to ask, do you have any needs when you come to Nightingale Market? Perhaps, as a local, I can be your guide." Evelin said proactively.

, Evelin also wondered why her mood suddenly became happy after hearing Ren's praise.

You know, there are not ten young men who flatter her on weekdays, seven or eight every day are inevitable.

Moreover, what these people said was much more straightforward and exaggerated than Ren's, but none of them could bring him the same feeling as Ren's just now.

It was obvious that Ren was just complimenting her, and it was because it was the first time the two had a formal conversation, so it was mostly polite, but somehow it made her very happy.

Maybe it's because he's strong enough? Evelin said in her heart.

"Of course, it would be an absolute honor for me to have the beautiful and powerful Knight Evelin as my guide." Renn immediately agreed with a smile.

Besides, he thought about it and felt that there was nothing to hide.

After all, they both came to the Nightingale Market, which meant that from a certain point of view, he and Evelin were both in the same profession, and the other party was most likely also a wizard apprentice, but he didn't know which branch he specialized in.

So, Ren continued: "I want to see if there is a witchcraft model that suits me, but after looking around, it seems that there is no powerful witchcraft."

Evelin smiled and said: "Of course there won't be this. In a mysterious market of this level, there won't be powerful witchcraft or first-level witchcraft. But sometimes, you can find some. Not a bad entry level witchcraft.”

"Huh? Is there any reason for this?" Ren asked with a little doubt.

"Because the actual managers behind these markets are jointly managed by the empire and some wizarding schools, some things are still restricted." Evelin explained.

"That's it!" Renn couldn't help but nodded.

No wonder!

He still remembered the last time he was at the Bat Market, when he took a large bag of things from Adams' shop, and was stopped by two managers of the market.

However, after he reported his identity, he was released safely.

Sure enough, behind this mysterious market, as he had guessed before, it was all under some kind of management by the empire.

Looking at the red-haired girl Evelin in front of him, Ren couldn't help but think of Jenny, who was also a noble girl.

However, Jenny's level is a little lower. Secondly, Jenny is just a noble lady and is not good at force.

And the Evelin in front of her was not only a viscount heiress at a higher level than the Baron, but her own strength was also very good.

Renn had a feeling that the opponent might not be much weaker than him.

Evelin, like him, is a wizard apprentice and a knight, and she is also in a state where the strength exceeds that of a peak knight in the general sense.

So, Ren continued to ask for advice: "So if you want to learn powerful witchcraft, what is the way?"

Evelin looked at Ren with her beautiful eyes, couldn't help but cover her mouth and laughed, and said: "Knight Ren, you are asking knowingly."

"What other ways are there? Generally speaking, there are only two ways. One is to join an ancient wizarding school, and the second is to hold a high enough position in the violent organization of the empire."

"If your position is high enough, you will naturally have access to many secrets, including confidential witchcraft, combat skills, research information, etc."

The two chatted and walked around, and soon became familiar with each other.

Evelin also learned that Ren was not the heir of a nobleman, and this suddenly made her realize. No wonder Ren had just asked a lot of common sense questions in her opinion.

But when she thought about it carefully, she was even more surprised!

How could a descendant of a commoner possess such strength?

Evelin found that she could not see through Ren even more.

Because she knows that whether you are a knight or a wizard apprentice, you need a lot of resources on the path of cultivation. If a commoner's descendant wants to reach Ren's current level, it will be very difficult.

Since he was accompanied by Evelin, a 'tour guide' who was familiar with the Nightingale Market, Renne quickly visited the entire Nightingale Market.

Sure enough, as Evelin said, basically, you can't see those powerful witchcraft in the market.

However, there are many rare materials, such as starfish grass, the material of another potion called "Spiritual Potion" recorded in Ren's "Animal Taming Diary", which is sold here.

Spiritual potion: After taking it, it can enhance the spirituality of animals.

It is also called a ‘wisdom potion’ in some places. Feeding animals with this potion will increase their intelligence to a certain extent.

The preparation of this potion requires the main ingredient, which is starfish grass that grows in the sea. It is named because it has five corners and resembles a starfish.

"Huh?" Renn saw a shabby book in a shop. Judging from the spiritual text on the cover, it read the words "Witchcraft Notes".

There should be a name in front of these words, but perhaps because of the age or other reasons, it is no longer clear.

Ren thought for a while and asked: "Hello, can you read this book?"

"You can only read two pages." The clerk nodded and handed the book to Ren.

After reading two pages carefully, Ren closed the book. Evelin also looked sideways a few times.

Although Ren's face was expressionless at the moment, he was quite happy in his heart, because the contents of the first two pages showed that this was probably a witchcraft notebook recording fire witchcraft.

"How much does this cost?"

"Two thousand imperial gold coins!"

Ren nodded, the price was still acceptable, just when he was thinking about buying something so that he could get this book.

Evelin on the side suddenly interjected: "The first two pages are indeed the official wizard's manuscript, but the material behind the book is not quite right. If you look closely, there are subtle differences. I feel that they are not a whole."

After hearing this, the clerk's expression changed, but he laughed sarcastically and didn't say anything.

How could Renn not understand what happened? His face immediately darkened and he left the store.

"Thank you Knight Evelin for the reminder." He almost suffered a loss just now.

Ren felt that visiting this mysterious market to look for witchcraft models was like visiting Panjiayuan Antique Market to look for antiques in his previous life.

Want to pick up the real thing?

That's not to say there isn't one, but firstly, the probability is too low, and secondly, you have a poisonous eye.

"You're welcome, Knight Ren, it's just that I have a little more experience than you. It's still very difficult to find good things here." Evelin said with a slight smile.

——

Münster, capital of the province of Münster.

In his office, special envoy Javier Stewart received the canonization assessment materials submitted from Theo in Rosby City. He couldn't help but be quite surprised for a while.

Because the first place is clearly written with Ren's name.

He thought that Renne might achieve good results, but after seeing the opponent's performance this time, he was immediately shocked. He still knew very well what the concept of more than two thousand points was.

After thinking about it, he quickly stamped the word 'agree' and sent someone to report it to the imperial capital immediately.

Two days later.

Baron Theo was quite happy after receiving the reply from the Empire Council of Elders.

But along with it, there was an invitation-style paper, which immediately made Viscount Theo look solemn, and whispered: "It's the 'Sword Bearer' invitation!"

Then, he shook his head slightly and sighed: "It seems that General Silva's favor has not been earned after all."

After thinking about it, he felt that it was better to tell Silva the 'bad news' as soon as possible to prevent the other party from continuing to do too much useless work.

Just when he arrived at the door of Silva's office, he heard Silva's slightly angry voice coming from inside.

"That fool from Meist County actually refused my transfer order. Let me take a look. The person who refused was a baron named Alonso Habs."

"Eh! Habbs? This man should be the direct heir of Count Habbs."

When he read 'Habs', Silva was obviously a little surprised, because although he was far away in Rosby County, he naturally knew the head of the neighboring county, Earl Habs.

Since Rennes' current administrative authority is naturally subordinate to Meist County, all transfer orders to Rennes must go through Meist County in principle.

Meister County has the right to refuse or reject transfer orders from lateral or non-direct superior departments.

Unless it is the province of Munster, or a higher-level transfer order.

Hearing this, Viscount Theo outside the door became happy, and he quickly knocked on the door!

"Dong dong dong!"

"Please come in!"

"Lord Viscount, you came just in time!" When Silva saw that the person coming was Theo, he couldn't help but repeat what he had just complained about.

"No! If the Sixth Squadron is not proud enough, I will issue a transfer order in the name of the Imperial South Sea Fleet. I will see who else in Meist County dares to reject it!"

After hearing Silva's complaint, Viscount Theo smiled bitterly and said with relief:

"General, I think you don't need to be angry. Perhaps you should take a look at this first."

Silva took the 'invitation' handed over by Viscount Theo with a puzzled look on his face.

Only an invitation letter, which he was familiar with but had rarely seen before, appeared in front of him.

On the invitation, there were five dragons with different postures flying in the sky. These were five-color dragons!

"This is an invitation letter from the Imperial Sword Bearers Organization, how could it come so quickly!" Silva couldn't help being surprised and said.

Originally, Silva's idea was to make a time lag and take Renn under his wing before some special departments of the empire discovered this good talent.

After all, at the level of the entire empire, the South China Sea Fleet is also a behemoth, responsible for the security of the empire's territory. After Ren is transferred, even if there are special departments who want to transfer people, it will not be that easy.

At least they can argue with each other, and even if they are transferred away in the end, they can get some compensation in other aspects.

But now, his transfer order from the Sixth Squadron has been rejected by Meist County, but the invitation letter from the sword holder has already arrived.

I have been busy these days in vain.

"That's right, General. Once Ren receives this invitation, he will be a candidate to hold the sword. Therefore, even if you succeed in robbing someone, it actually doesn't mean much."

Silva thought for a while, sighed and said: "Yes, rather than like this, it is better to cultivate it yourself."

"Lord Viscount, when the announcement is made, I won't be going to Ren's side. I'll thank you for your hard work."

As for Renn, he naturally didn't know all the twists and turns that happened in the middle.

Renn also had no idea that he had missed an opportunity to participate in a great voyage and experience the majestic ocean, treasures and pirates.

Navy House Hotel, a room on the second floor.

A rhythmic but steady knock on the door suddenly came.

Ren opened the door and took a look. He was slightly shocked when he saw a big shot that he had only seen during the canonization assessment.

The person in charge of the canonization assessment, who was wearing a noble hunting suit and had a mustache, seemed to be called Viscount Theo. This title was told to him by the female major Malika.

"Good day, Lord Viscount!" Renne quickly invited people into the room.

Obviously, if the other party comes to see you, there must be something important.

Theo had a smile on his face. After entering the room, he looked around and saw that although Ren was staying in a hotel, his belongings were neatly arranged and very organized. This made him feel more satisfied. .

Who says Renn has no sense of rules? He obviously has one!

"Knight Ren, I just received a letter from the Empire's canonization assessment committee. Your outstanding performance in the canonization assessment has been approved, so you will be awarded the title of baron."

"Thank you, Lord Viscount!" Renn was immediately overjoyed and could not help clenching his fists slightly.

The dust has settled. From today on, he is a noble and a baron!

"However, Knight Ren, perhaps, this is what you would like to see more." Viscount Theo handed him an 'invitation' style paper with a smile on his face.
