Chapter 144

Ren walked to the Violet House. On the way, he saw that the damage caused by the earthquake to the Silver Star District had basically been repaired.

All the ruins have been cleared, and the confidence of the past has returned to people's faces.

It would be hard to believe that just a few weeks ago this was a scene of apocalyptic disaster if not for the fact that so much is still being rebuilt.

Ren sighed in his heart, time really is the best medicine to heal scars.

Of course, behind this, the contribution of the ruler, the Duke of Silver Star, is also inseparable. He sent his wizards to reshape the terrain, save lives and heal the wounded, and invested a lot of money to rebuild their homes, so that people can come out of the disaster faster.

Ren entered the Violet House and found that Viola was not there.

The staff in the store told that Viola was busy with the work of Silver Star Records recently, and would only go to Violet House for two hours every morning in the morning.

The record company was established in the Loews area, originally as Kennegi's machinery factory.

Ren did not go to Viola, but returned to Vigo Manor.

It wasn't until after eight o'clock in the evening that Viola returned home. Hearing that the housekeeper Abigail said that Ryan had returned, he hurried up to the third floor.

Ren was reading a book when he saw her come in with a smile on his face.

Viola, who was dressed in an elegant long dress, was pleasantly surprised at first, and then said with some complaints: "Ren, when did you come back, why didn't you send someone to notify me?"

Ren smiled and didn't answer.

He stood up and opened his arms, and Viola happily went up to him and hugged him tightly.

Smelling the fragrance of the half-elf and feeling her slender figure, Ren felt peaceful and enjoyed this beautiful moment.

After a long time, the two separated.

Ryan could tell that Viola was in a good mood, not all because of her return, but also because of her career success, her face was full of joy, and her whole person was exuding a confident look.

Sure enough, before he could ask, Viola said excitedly: "We succeeded!"

"The first batch of 500 phonographs were all sold within half a day. Mr. Keneji ordered the factory to produce them at full capacity, and the second batch of more than 1,000 phonographs was sold out as soon as it was put on the market. .”

"I did a market survey today. Now there is no one in Longshan who doesn't know about phonographs. Many people have sent teams to buy them, and they are even willing to pay high prices, just to buy them earlier."

"Longshande plus the surrounding cities can sell at least 10,000 gramophones."

"According to your idea, sell gramophones first, and then focus on selling records. At the current price, every customer who buys a gramophone buys at least five records. In just ten days, there are many records. Guests are asking us for more records."

"A few days ago, when I prayed to the long-haired lady, I got a response. The lady was very satisfied with the effect of the gramophone."

"Ren, you are a genius!"

Hearing this, Ren was not very surprised. The popularity of the gramophone was completely within his expectation, and this was just the beginning.

It is estimated that in less than a year, the sound of the phonograph will spread throughout the empire, even half of Ellenus.

It depends on whether the production capacity of Silver Star Records can keep up.

Ren was about to speak, but saw Viola staring at his face affectionately, raised his head and offered a passionate and long kiss.

Of course he would not refuse the stunning beauty's embrace.

The two soon had a candid encounter.

Although Ren has seen Viola's beautiful body many times and touched it with his own hands countless times, every time it is shown in front of his eyes, he will send out sincere praise.

This is more beautiful and moving than any scenery in the world.

Then there is the blood rush.

The scenery in the bedroom was beautiful, Ren's passion was completely released, and the half-elf's eyes were blurred. The two snuggled up on the bedside, talking about themselves afterwards.

After lingering together for a long time, Viola suddenly remembered something.

"Did you know? Gallowayna is dead."

Her tone was indescribably relaxed and somewhat happy, her eyes were fixed on Ren, as if she wanted to see something from Ren's face.

Ren pretended to be surprised, "When? How did you die?"

"Just three days ago." Viola had some doubts in his eyes, "Someone broke into Fort Burke in Gallowayna, killed himself and almost all the Transcendents in the castle within five minutes, and then escaped gone."

"When the wizard of the secret fire guard arrived, he didn't see the murderer. After tracking for more than ten miles, he was lost by the river."

"According to the situation of the castle, the murderer is very likely to be a legendary swordsman."

"Legendary Great Swordsman?" Ren smiled secretly. When he entered Fort Burke, he deliberately did not use any spells or warhammer, just to mislead the investigators.

The only flaw was in Enoch's body. He was paralyzed by the electric thorn armor, which might leave extremely subtle clues.

Now it seems that the secret fire guards did not realize that their misleading was very successful.

A look of surprise appeared on his face: "How could Gallo Weiner offend a legendary swordsman?"

"I don't know, the secret fire guards have no conclusions yet." Viola shook his head, put his face on Ren's chest, and said softly: "No matter who did it, I have to thank him. Once Gallowayna dies, no matter what happens again." No one can compete with me for the Earl of Winter Ting, and I will never harm anyone against me."

Ren hugged her tightly, remembering the conversation he had heard outside Fort Burke.

It's true that Galloway is dead, but Phyllis is still there!

This woman hated Viola deeply, she had both strength and background, and it was not as easy to solve as Gallo Weiner.

Find an opportunity to remind Viola to be careful.

But Viola is now the Chosen One, a seventh-level wizard of all spirits, and this is not the floating city of Pallas, so it is very difficult for Phyllis to make a move.

He thought for a while and asked, "What's the Duke's reaction to this?"

"Your Excellency the Duke is very angry, but we can't find the murderer, and there is nothing we can do." Viola replied: "After the death of Gallowena, the assets he managed for the family will be redistributed soon. I have already informed the Duke Proposed that the river transport company should be rectified and used as a sales channel for record companies to promote gramophones to the entire empire."

Ren couldn't help but glanced at her. Her reason was very good, and she was actually testing the Duke of Silver Star.

If the Duke of Silver Star agrees, it means that Viola has been made clear as the Earl of Winter Ting. Now that the phonograph is so popular and has unlimited prospects, the Duke of Silver Star obviously won't refuse.

"Then I want to congratulate you in advance, Lord Earl." Ren joked.

Viola smiled and nodded reservedly, "Thank you, Baron Wren."

"Haha..." Ren laughed. He almost forgot that in ten days or so, he would also be canonized as a baron on God's Birthday.

Viola reminded: "You have to be prepared too. The canonization ceremony is in charge of the city hall, and an etiquette officer will come to you."

"By the way, have you thought about your family's surname?"

Ren was taken aback for a moment, shook his head and said, "Not yet."

He didn't pay much attention to this matter. He didn't pay much attention to the reputation of a baron. But for family members, having an official surname is very important.

How many civilians have struggled for generations to put a surname behind their names, which is almost a lifelong pursuit of civilians.

Ren considered for a moment and made a decision.

The two stayed together for a long time, and they didn't embrace each other until late at night and fell asleep. Woke up the next day, Ren meditated as usual, and Viola went out after breakfast.

After finishing his practice, Ren went out on his bicycle.

For the next few days, Viola left early and returned late, very busy. Ryan would also go out during the day to do his own business, and the two would only meet at night, enjoying their passion.

A carriage stopped at the gate of Clayton Extraordinary Academy.

"Sir, we are here." The coachman said respectfully, and opened the door quickly.

Ren in formal attire got out of the car, looked at the college in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In his memory, there is a lot of content about the academy, but today is his first visit.

As one of the three colleges in Longshande, Clayton College has the lowest strength, but has the largest number of students, and most of the students are from civilian backgrounds.

Ren spent three years of mediocrity here.

It was the noon break time. Many students came in and out of the door, and when they saw Ren and the carriage, they all looked at it curiously.

"You wait here for a while." Ren told the driver.

"Okay, sir."

Ren nodded and walked into the academy. Walking in the familiar college, a series of memories come to mind, and there are faces one after another, all of them are former teachers and classmates.

On the way, he saw several familiar figures and remembered their names.

But no one recognized him.

Ren knew that he had changed too much. He was like two people with the former Ren, in fact, they were two different people.

The soul has changed, and the body has undergone earth-shaking changes due to the fusion of the demon soul.

Relying on the route he remembered, Ren found the dormitory area of ​​the college, and he stopped a few people downstairs for questioning.

When others saw his appearance, they were a little in awe and answered honestly.

Ren asked about the information he wanted, entered a martial arts training ground next to the dormitory area, and saw a young man in the field at a glance.

He was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and his appearance was somewhat similar to his own, with handsome features and a pair of soul eyes.

The boy held a long sword and was practicing against others.

Ren didn't bother them, and watched patiently from a distance. The set of "Northern Wind Swordsmanship" practiced by the young man is obviously not long ago, but he has already mastered the tricks and performed it well. Although his own strength is mediocre and not as good as his opponent, he can suppress the opponent with faster moves and gain won.

After changing several opponents in a row, the teenager always wins more than loses.

The only time he lost was not due to poor swordsmanship, but because the gap in physical fitness was too large, to the point where swordsmanship could not make up for it.

If the physical fitness of the two is equal, the outcome will inevitably be reversed.

Ren looked at the sweaty boy and nodded secretly, thinking that it's no wonder his father Bud would give up on him and let Brissett enter the academy instead.

Obviously, Brissett's talent is a bit higher than his own.

At least he is much higher than the former Ren. Even the best swordsmanship of Ren's predecessor is far inferior to Brissett. After three years of training, his level is similar to that of Brissett who only practiced for half a year.

Not to mention, Brissett also worked harder.

From the eyes of the soul, it can be seen that the soul of this sixteen-year-old boy is much stronger than that of his peers, which is an intuitive manifestation of outstanding talent.

This kind of talent may not be the top group in the entire Clayton Academy of Extraordinary, but it can only be regarded as first-class.

But it is already much higher than most people. If there are enough resources to cultivate, the probability of becoming a superhuman is very high.

Definitely a bigger chance than Rennes ever had.

Thinking of this, Ren walked over and called, "Brissett."

Hearing someone calling him, the boy turned around and saw Ren, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, his eyes full of doubts. He scratched his head, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted in disbelief, "Ren?"

Ren nodded with a smile.

"It's really you!" Brissett's eyes widened, and she hurried forward a few steps, not daring to recognize her.

The Ren in front of him is very different from the elder brother in his memory. His figure, dress, temperament, and even his appearance have changed a lot.

However, due to his appearance, he could vaguely see Ren's original appearance.

Brissett heard from Daisia ​​that his eldest brother Ryan has become a superhuman and is now a sheriff. He also sent him ten golden shields.

Daisia ​​said that Ryan was different from before, and he didn't believe it before, but now that he saw Ryan, he knew that Daisia ​​hadn't lied.

Ren stepped forward and patted his younger brother on the shoulder, saying, "Clean up and go out with me."

"good!"

Brissett got excited, handed the long sword to the classmate, and ran back to the dormitory to wash and change clothes.

When he went downstairs, he still felt a little unbelievable when he saw Ren standing there waiting, and asked expectantly, "Where are we going?"

"You'll know when you get there."

Ren led him out of the academy and asked as he walked, "Father and mother, are you okay at home?"

"It's all good." Brissette quickly replied, "I've already written to tell my family that you became a superhuman, and they are very happy. But my father didn't seem to believe it, so the letter told me to go to the Public Security Bureau to see Looking at your situation, I don't think I should bother you, so I didn't go. If he can see your current appearance, he will definitely not doubt it. "

"Ren, how did you become a superhuman?" Brissett was very curious and yearning.

Ren smiled and said: "I met a very powerful friend, she helped me."

"Her?" Brissett immediately heard the important information.

"Well, you will see me later." Ren did not explain in detail, and the two left the academy and boarded the carriage. On the carriage, Brissett was even more excited. He realized that his eldest brother was in a very high position now, not as simple as an ordinary extraordinary person.

The carriage drove for more than ten minutes, and finally entered a villa in Yinxing District.
