Chapter 214: Chocolate (Ask for a monthly pass!)

Chapter 214 Chocolate (Ask for a monthly pass!)

Chen Lun looked at the black knight in front of him, thinking quietly.

The other party has a blood relationship with Floyd, and she is also her only relative left in this world.

"It can be seen that she cares about you."

Byers chuckled.

"That kind of emotion is very warm, I can feel... the members of the wolf family are almost crazy about love."

He paused.

"I am very optimistic about you, Jack, you have a very peculiar quality, which is a bottom line deep in human nature, and this kind of quality is rare.

Moreover, you have made rapid progress, this talent shocked me...every step forward in the mysterious field requires great efforts, and you..."

The black knight shook his head.

"Incredible."

He stood up slowly, leaning against the tombstone, holding the hilt of his sword with both hands.

"Jack, what else do you want to ask?"

"Mr. Byers, why haven't you seen Floyd?"

Chen Lun spoke.

The black knight was silent for a while, and only said one sentence:

"not the right time yet."

The two looked at each other in silence, Chen Lun pulled the brim of his hat and came to the black knight.

"I have no questions, Mr. Byers, what do you need me to do next?"

"Don't you ask me why I was hunted down by churches and shelters? If I did something heinous, would you still help me?"

The Black Knight turned to look at him with interest.

"meeting."

Chen Lun showed a smile.

"why?"

The black knight asked.

"Because you are Floy's only relative."

He said this sentence very naturally.

The black knight was slightly taken aback, and then laughed a few times.

"Actually, the inside story of my being hunted down is ridiculous, um... I'll tell you next time, I don't have much time.

Next, I need you to help me deliver an item. It is in Sunflower City, the main city of Huabang. After getting the item, I will secretly send it to a ruin on the outskirts of Amber City, Gem State. "

"what?"

Chen Lun asked.

The black knight handed over a stone coin with some patterns engraved on it. This is an item that records the current anchor point of Sunflower City.

After Chen Lun took it, the black knight spit out two words:

"The coffin."

He added:

"My current body can hardly hold on anymore. The coffin in Sunflower City is my own body... Remember, when going back and forth between two cities, don't travel directly from the spirit world, there will be a team of elite superhumans Ambush in the spirit world on the edge of the city."

【Trigger B-level mission: Journey to the negative coffin! 】

Mission description: You have gained the trust of the black knight Byers. He told you the location of his own body, hoping that you can take it from Sunflower City to the designated place on the outskirts of Amber City.

Mission rewards: 20,000 experience points, 50 gold pounds, Byers' favorability, and [Moon Faction Sequence 7-Requiemer] extraordinary knowledge.

"I see, Mr. Byers."

Chen Lun accepted the task and nodded to express his understanding.

The black knight responded with a weary sound, and immediately sat down against the huge tombstone.

Holding the sword in his arms, he lowered his head, wondering if he was going to sleep.

When Chen Lun returned to the present world, he found that he did not appear in Jack's Manor, but in a suburb of Amber City.

Seeing this, he had no choice but to change his wings and return to the city flapping.

Fortunately, the speed of [Beautiful Wings] is very fast, more than twice as fast as the previous [Crow Feather]. When the body is flying at high altitude, it can even produce a slight scream.

He quickly stopped near the city gate, and then entered with many pedestrians.

I don’t know if the problem of the plague is getting worse. There are a lot of guards at the gate of the city who are responsible for inspection, but most of the low-level residents who originally lived outside the city have disappeared.

Maybe he was forced to leave due to the pressure of survival, or died of a plague disease, and disappeared silently into the world.

Chen Lun sighed secretly and entered the city.

He temporarily took a rented carriage and spent forty copper kroes to take him back to Jack Manor in the inner city.

More than an hour later.

While passing a commercial street, Chen Lun suddenly remembered something.

I have a lot of hometown dishes that I want to eat, but there is a lack of special seasonings. Floy "can hardly cook without rice", and Connie has never been able to buy them.

'I remember that there is a grocery store here, which is an affiliated business of the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce. They have a wide range of routes, and they should be able to buy things like soy sauce...It would be even better if they could have spices such as cinnamon and star anise. '

Chen Lun couldn't help feeling that without these, the dishes would lose their charm.

He stopped the carriage, and then got off by himself.

Taking a casual glance, Chen Lun quickly identified the target. Not far from the front left, there is a store named "Wanuodi Grocery Store". On one side of the plaque, there is a small silver faucet engraved.

He went straight in.

The grocery store is very large, equivalent to a supermarket, but Chen Lun walked through several shelves, but he couldn't find the seasoning he wanted.

In desperation, with the mentality of "not being able to fly the air force", he planned to buy some gifts to take back to Floy.

Chen Lun found the shelf where candies and chocolates were placed, and picked out two boxes of dark chocolates.

‘This chocolate contains zero sugar, Floy should like it. '

He smiled slightly, thinking to himself.

When Chen Lun was about to leave, he found a stooped old lady next to him, looking hesitantly at a row of chocolates.

"too expensive…"

The old lady whispered.

Chen Lun just glanced at the price tag subconsciously. Ordinary chocolates are about 2 silver bars per box, and the dark chocolate he owns is more expensive, 7 silver bars and 35 copper croiss.

He shook his head slightly. This is indeed not affordable for the people at the bottom, but this is an inner city, and ordinary residents should be able to accept it.

"Are you a foreigner?"

Chen Lun asked casually.

The old lady seemed to have just realized that there was a tall and handsome young man standing beside her. She first raised her head to show a surprised expression, and then smiled slightly, the wrinkles on her cheeks squeezed into slits.

"Hmm...I'm here to visit my relatives and want to buy some gifts."

She is dressed in black, simple but clean, with a purple chrysanthemum that can be seen everywhere inserted at the junction of her shoulders and white hair.

Doesn't look rich.

Looking at the old lady, Chen Lun took a few boxes of beautifully packaged chocolates out of kindness, and motioned:

"I'll pay for these for you."

"Oh, this is too expensive, I don't want to..."

The old lady looked surprised and waved her hands again and again.

Chen Lun showed a signature smile, did not persist, but suddenly asked:

"Ma'am, very presumptuous, can you tell me your age?"

The old lady was easy-going, not angry, but said softly:

"I am 81 years old, and I am not far from death."

Chen Lun shook his head with emotion.

"I can't see it at all. If you didn't say it, I would have thought you were 18 years old."

The old lady couldn't help being amused and chuckled a few times.

Chen Lun continued:

“Your smile is so pretty and it touched my mood today, I think it totally deserves a gift.”

He again handed the boxes of chocolates in his hand to the old lady.

The other party was slightly taken aback, and finally said:

"You are a kind young man, thank you."

After she took a few boxes of chocolates, she put most of them back on the shelf, leaving only a box of sugar-free dark chocolate, the same style as the one Chen Lun bought for Floyd.

After checkout is complete.

The old lady stopped Chen Lun who was about to leave at the door of the grocery store. She took the initiative to hug Chen Lun, and then said:

"Young man, may the moonlight bless you... Although this city is prosperous, there are too few kind people."

Chen Lun smiled lightly and said casually:

"You remind me of my grandmother, very kind, and I wish you good health and a safe journey."

The old lady looked very moved and asked:

"Please tell me your grandmother's name. From now on, every Sunday of the Moon God, I will pray to her and pray for your grandmother."

Where did Chen Lun find a grandmother in this world? He could only make up a random name:

"Her name is Margaret."

Night.

Floye received a gift from Chen Lun.

She happily unwrapped the paper package, and sniffed the dark chocolate curiously.

"what is this?"

"chocolate."

Chen Lun explained.

Floye seems to have never eaten chocolate, and looks forward to it.

She opened her mouth slightly, and took a bite from the corner of the bar of chocolate.

click.

Chen Lun looked at her quietly, his fair cheeks were slightly puffed up, as if slowly tasting in his mouth.

"It's delicious, I like it very much."

Floy smiled.

"Don't feel bitter?"

Chen Lun asked.

Floy shook her head, then nodded embarrassingly.

"Well, a little bit."

Chen Lun couldn't help chuckling a few times, thinking that Floyd's appearance was inexplicably cute.

"Chocolate should actually be sweet, but you don't seem to like sweets, so the one I bought for you is sugar-free."

Floy nodded half understanding.

"I like this."

"As long as you like it... I will bring you some back next time."

Chen Lun said.

Floy carefully put the unfinished chocolates back into the tin foil packaging, and then put away the two boxes of chocolates.

After the two parted, Chen Lun returned to his room.

He briefly thought about his next move, and decided to do something else on the way to Sunflower City.

'Before the chaos officially begins, it is best to remove the hidden dangers around Amber City...'

Chen Lun took out the high-level token of the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and flicked the silver coin lightly.

With the rapid rotation of the central area of ​​the silver coin, an invisible sound wave was transmitted to the spirit world. Soon, a deep blue crack appeared, and then a pig's head came out from under Chen Lun's feet.

Chen Lun looked at this deceitful doll that changed its skin every time, twitched the corners of his mouth, and then communicated with him in [animal language], explaining one thing to it.

He asked the cheating doll to help him buy a piece of information about which branches of the Red Apple Church still exist around Amber City at this stage.

Zhutou showed a clear expression, Hanhan nodded, and went back again.

Chen Lun sat on the chair, tapped the armrest lightly with his fingers, thinking in his eyes.

'It's been so long, the players should have grown a lot, it's time to release the new products of the circus, and update their equipment...By the way, take them to the first wave of Red Apple Church, just let them Adapt to the rhythm of future versions in advance. '

He is happy with the plan.

‘I am such a responsible guide, where can I find it...It’s so great, so righteous. '

The next evening.

Floy woke up from her sleep.

After she got up and finished washing in the bathroom, she walked to the table with some expectation, opened the drawer, and took out the chocolates that Chen Lun bought for her last night.

But what made her a little puzzled was that there was an extra box out of the original two boxes.

Floy was stunned for a few seconds, and then felt warm in her heart.

She thought, she must have learned that she liked it, so Chen Lun bought another box and secretly put it in her drawer.
