Volume 3: The Ravager Chapter 175: Jenny Hears the News
"Go, come back in three days." The demon-masked woman put away the information and chased away the three of them.
A few people left the room, Nightingale tilted her head to look at Du Dian, her eyes flashing behind the owl mask, and said, "Congratulations, you were able to pass the first application, and now you are an official alchemist."
"Congratulations, congratulations." Jin Jia next to him smiled.
Rose blinked and asked curiously, "What kind of alchemy did you submit to be called 'special'?"
Du Dian smiled slightly and said, "It's just ordinary alchemy."
Seeing that Du Dian was reluctant to say it explicitly, Rose didn't ask any further questions.
Nightingale said to Du Dian: "Will you be free later? I'll take you to see the mouse. If he knows that you have become an official alchemist, he will probably be able to cure his laziness."
Du Di'an thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, I have other things to do. I'll go another day."
"Alright." Nightingale nodded.
The Nightingales and the others did not intend to leave here immediately. They wandered around the various shops around the square. Occasionally, when they saw rare alchemy materials that were hard to find outside, they would buy some.
While Du Dian accompanied a few people around, he also noticed that there were not only alchemists in this dark Holy See branch, but also another extremely evil profession, potions.
If alchemists are equivalent to scientists of the old era, then potions are completely a group of lunatics who are interested in developing various poison potions. They are even crazier than the alchemists of the "life" faction. In the history of the wall, it is not uncommon for potions to slaughter small towns and exterminate nobles, and the destructive power is extremely terrifying.
Du Dian had heard in Rothyard's notes that he would rather provoke the Holy See of Light than offend the potionist, otherwise he would not know when he would die, and the end of being poisoned by the potionist was usually extremely painful and miserable. .
"Potionist... If you use poison to hunt monsters outside the wall, it would be a powerful weapon." Du Di was thinking to himself. At this time, he saw that Nightingale had picked out a small piece of nickel in front of the shop, and his heart moved slightly. .
After a while, the few people walked around almost and left together.
"Do you want me to take you for a ride?" Nightingale asked when she thought that Du Dian didn't have a carriage when she came outside the manor.
Du Dian shook his head slightly and said, "Thank you, it's not a good way."
Nightingale nodded slightly. In fact, she was just a polite word. If Du Dian agreed, she would be in trouble. From childhood to adulthood, except for her relatives and servants, she has never been alone in a carriage with strangers.
Jinjia and Rose also got into their respective carriages and left.
Du Di'an came to a dark corner of the town, and after confirming that no one was following around, took off his mask, put away his black robe, turned around and quietly left the town.

In a secret hall that few people know about.
In an office in the main hall, several figures shrouded in darkness sat busy at their respective tables. Suddenly, a slight sound came from the metal pipe beside one of the tables, and the person sitting at the table turned to look Go, I saw a pitch-black triangular snake head slowly protruding from the metal pipe, with black scales all over its forehead, at first glance it was a highly venomous snake species.
The figure at the table slowly reached out his hand, as if to touch the snake's head.
The black snake slowly opened its mouth, and there was a black scroll in its sharp fangs.
The figure at the table pulled out the scroll, opened the scroll, took out the letterhead and a volume of materials inside, and flipped through the pages. After a while, he put away the materials and letters, and muttered to himself: "It's another pyrotechnic ban? It seems that , there are quite a few nobles who have hooked up with alchemists recently."
He pondered for a while, then immediately wrote out a letter, stuffed it into the roll, and handed it to the black snake.
The black snake opened its bloody mouth, swallowed the reel, and twisted its body to slowly retract into the metal pipe.
...
...
Mount Erdos, the Bron family.
In a castle surrounded by rivers full of traps, in a side castle room like bamboo shoots, two figures are sitting at the desk,
There are a lot of materials and a few thick books on the table.
"According to our investigation, the murderer is most likely the work of his friend." Gianda, with blond hair, sat at the desk, tapped a pen lightly on a document, and said politely, "Let's start with Start with him."
Sitting across the table was a pretty and slender figure, dressed in a seemingly simple but valuable light green dress, stretched out his hands to support his cheeks, and stared at the potted plants on the side window. Hearing Gianda's words, he came back to his senses and glanced at him. The direction he pointed was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Teacher, is there any trouble in our family?"
Gianda was stunned for a moment, looked at this beautiful girl, and said, "Why do you think so?"
"Recently, my father has been deliberately preventing me from leaving the castle, and even bothering you to come to my house to accompany me, there must be something bad outside, and my father does not want me to know." The girl looked up at him and said, "Can you tell me? me?"
Gionda looked at her bright and clear eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she said, "It's your illusion, your Bron family is an ancient noble with a huge industry, how could it be in trouble, it's just outside the door recently. There are alchemists haunting and it is not very safe, so I am afraid that you will be in danger when you go out."
"Really?" The girl stared at him deeply, lowered her head, and said nothing.
Gianda put away the information on the table and said shyly: "Let's be here today, you must be a little tired. I have already found the clue. I will go back and send someone to investigate." After that, he picked up the books and materials and turned around. Quickly left the room.
In a room comparable to an ordinary noble hall, there was only a girl left in an instant. She sat silently for a while, feeling a little tired, got up and went to the window, looking at the courtyard and fruit trees outside, her depressed mood was relieved a lot. Suddenly, she saw a carriage galloping towards here from a distant path, with a dark red bright flag planted on the carriage.
The girl's eyes lit up and she quickly greeted her.
The carriage quickly came to a stop in front of the courtyard, and a tall, white-skinned girl with dark red curly hair got off the carriage. Her slender body seemed to be blown by the wind at any time. She ran off the carriage and saw the oncoming face. The girl in the green dress who ran out of the courtyard said in surprise, "Jenny."
Jenny was full of joy and said, "Shaya, why are you here?"
"I'm dying of suffocation by myself, I'm here to play with you." Melshaya smiled.
"Great, let's go in and talk." Jenny took her friend back to her room.
sunset.
An afternoon passed, and Melshaya held Jenny's favorite plush doll, stood in front of the window, glanced at the sky, and said reluctantly, "It's late, I should go back."
Jenny said, "Why don't you rest at my house tonight."
Melshaya shook her head slightly, and said, "I'm going back to rest early today, and there's another place to go tomorrow, ah, by the way, I'm here to tell you some good news."
"Good news?" Jenny looked surprised.
Melshaya smiled and said, "Isn't that hunter you knew who was good at writing poetry and went to jail for doing something wrong? He was released on bail recently. I'm going to a party tomorrow, maybe I will meet him."
"Hunter..." Jenny was shocked, looked at her in disbelief, and said, "You, are you talking about Du Dian?"
Melshaya shrugged and said, "I don't remember his name, but he was released on bail this time, and it is estimated that he will encounter a lot of trouble. The nobles who bail him are too weak, and they want to set up a consortium, probably because they want to Use your friends."
Jenny was stunned and murmured, "Didn't my father say that what he committed cannot be released on bail?"
Melshaya said in surprise: "Really, it's just stealing. We used to do this kind of thing when we were young. With the strength of your family, it's easy to bail him out, right?"
Jenny was stunned for a while, then lowered her head and said, "Yes, but if you do something wrong, you need to be punished. This is fair. He is also a priest, and he can understand it."
