Chapter 241 Auntie
"Are we late?"
"Where did [Ghost Shadow] Kilos go, is he dead?"
"It should have escaped, after all, it is that one."
"."
On the sand dunes, everyone from the Chamber of Commerce rushed over, and there were not many people alive, only eight or nine.
Then, they saw that Mr. Lei who was debridement and treatment of his wound in the sand.
Ren didn't want to perform surgery on himself in public, but now he has too many wounds on his body. The dagger blessed with wind-type grudge is as sharp as a light arc cutter, and it can cut through the skin with a slight touch, leaving a wound with flesh turned out.
There are also those toxins, although they are not fatal, they must be dealt with in time to avoid infection or other serious complications.
As for the corpse of Kilos, Ren naturally wanted to take it away. Apart from using it as a material for practicing dissection, more importantly, he wanted to recycle those "fine needles".
Although she didn't see the corpse, Catherine looked at the messy sand and knew that there had been a big battle here before.
However, after seeing that it was Ren who was alive, the president of the Sequoia Chamber of Commerce breathed a sigh of relief.
There were no assassins around, and it seemed that they had really fled.
Tonight, everyone finally survived.
Without the sense of urgency of worrying about their lives, everyone's thinking began to function normally.
Then, their minds gradually began to think about the picture they saw with their eyes.
Although I didn't see the body of [Ghost Shadow] Kilos, no matter whether the big thief escaped or died, it proved that the man with the crow gas mask in front of him was very strong.
because too strong
On the contrary, it makes people feel a little jealous, and there is also a sense of awe that makes people feel as if seeing a "big man".
After all, the bloody scene of Ren chasing Chilos and blowing up a second-tier assassin with one punch was still vivid in everyone's mind.
Now, everyone looked at the guy who was covered in blood and stitched up his wound with a numb expression, and there was even a little fear in their eyes. After the fierce battle, the momentum has not retreated, and there seems to be an invisible aura that makes people afraid to approach.
This was no longer the ordinary hunter "Nicholas" they knew.
Catherine naturally thought of these, and even more.
Because Ren is so strong that one has to doubt his purpose.
Obviously, masters of this level definitely don't come hunting for that little commission.
But the fact is that such a master is hiding in the team.
If it hadn't been exposed after this attack, I'm afraid he would have remained hidden.
So what is his purpose?
However, no matter what, she knew that the man in the crow mask should be a friend rather than an enemy.
Otherwise, if they really want to harm her, or their "Sequoia Chamber of Commerce", they will never take the risk to help.
Moreover, Catherine also noticed that although this "Nicholas" won, it was a narrow victory. The wound on his body showed the brutality of the previous battle.
After all, no matter how powerful he is, his grudge gauze also shows that he is also a second-order extraordinary.
There is an essential gap between the second and third levels of extraordinary power, which cannot be made up by equipment or martial arts.
Although Catherine didn't figure out how to defeat the enemy by him, but with the previous punch alone, it may be no problem to beat ordinary third-order extraordinary, but [ghost] Kilos is still far behind
This makes people a little confused, why did this man take the risk of just them?
But after all, it was because of him that the wild hunters of their chamber of commerce survived.
Catherine feels that no matter what the other party's purpose is, gratitude must be expressed.
Especially as the president of the chamber of commerce.
Catherine saw the trace of fear on everyone's faces, and said lightly: "Just wait here, I'll just go over."
That "Nicholas" was seriously injured, and going to so many people at this time may cause people to misunderstand; it will also make people think that she, the president, is too cautious.
Others felt that it was reasonable for Catherine to say this. After all, they had heard before that the man in the distance was the "reinforcement" of the chamber of commerce.
But as her son, Ganix knew the inside story very well, he didn't know this crow mask guy at all. He watched his mother want to go alone, but also worried: "But."
Amaris, the third-rank mage at the side, also asked slightly worriedly: "President, do you want me to accompany you?"
Catherine shook her head, and walked down the dune calmly.
There are definitely risks. She has been in a very, very bad state since the fight. If she really had to face a stranger who could defeat [Ghost Shadow] Kilos, she would not have the slightest chance of protecting herself.
But she trusts her instincts more.
Ren kept silent, and while he was dealing with his wound, he looked at those people on the sand dunes from the corner of his eye.
After all, in this situation, being afraid of oneself is also a normal person's reaction.
But at this moment, seeing that President Catherine walked down alone, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
At least, he doesn't want too many people to know his true identity.
Catherine walked down and stopped at a distance of five or six meters in front of Ren.
It's a distance that makes unfamiliar people feel safe.
She lowered her posture very low, bowed gratefully towards Ren, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Nicholas. It is your heroic help tonight that can save our Chamber of Commerce's wild hunters." The fate of being ransacked and killed by the Phantom Thieves On behalf of the 'Sequoia Chamber of Commerce', I would like to express my most sincere thanks to you."
The sincerity was heard in the tone.
Although she knew that this was probably a fake name, because she racked her brains and never thought that any "extraordinary genius" in the two empires had this name.
Ren knew that unless he left now, his identity would not be concealed. He didn't intend to hide it, after all, he wasn't considered an outsider.
He also knew that Mrs. Catherine must be very curious about her identity now, and it was probably not easy to speak directly.
He didn't hesitate, and asked directly: "Excuse me. What is your relationship with Mrs. 'Canossa J. Cloefeller'?"
When Catherine heard this question, her eyes lit up, and she immediately guessed who the person in front of her probably came from.
Although not many people knew about her relationship with Kanossa, it was not a secret among the high-level officials of the two empires.
A strange look flashed across her face, she took a look at Ren, and said directly: "I am Kanossa's aunt. Her mother is my own sister."
Sure enough, they are relatives
When Ren heard this, he raised his brows slightly, no wonder they looked a bit alike.
Since she is Kanosha's aunt, she is not considered an outsider.
Then, without beating around the bush, he took out the token Canossa gave him, and said, "I know Mrs. Canossa, and this is the token she gave me."
"lady?"
Catherine felt a little strange when she heard the name, but when she saw the "black gold coin", her eyes also began to measure.
As if to confirm her previous thoughts, she whispered: "Are you Mr. Wren?"
When the name was directly mentioned, Ren was a little surprised, and asked back: "Do you know me?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he knew that Kanosha should have mentioned his name.
"certainly."
Catherine's slightly frowning brows suddenly relaxed, and she nodded.
Hearing Ren admitting himself, the look in her eyes suddenly changed.
Just a moment ago, there was still a kind of respect for the strange and strong, although it was polite, it was also very generous.
But at this moment, it turned into the look of an elder sizing him up.
It's the kind of eyes that seven aunts and eight aunts look at their new son-in-law when they go back to the village during the Spring Festival.
Ren always felt that there was something strange about her eyes, and asked, "Mrs. Canossa mentioned me to you?"
"Yeah. She told me a lot about you."
Catherine didn't know what she thought of, her expression became a little weird, her tone suddenly lost any sense of life, and she smiled slightly: "Although I am not a few years older than Canossa, in terms of seniority, I am indeed her." Auntie, Mr. Wren, you can call me that too."
"."
This change of attitude made Ren feel a little too abrupt, and made him feel that there might be some things he didn't know clearly, so he murmured in his heart: "A lot of things about me?"
The corners of Catherine's eyebrows were curved, and she said a very explosive sentence in an understatement tone, "She told us that a little man wanted to sleep with her. Then, she agreed."
"."
When Ren heard this, his forehead twitched, unable to hide his embarrassment.
Kanosha actually said that to the elders of the family?
He finally understood why President Catherine looked at him like that after knowing who he was. Once again, I have experienced the bold and unrestrained concept of gender in this world.
Although this Catherine looked only about thirty years old, she always felt a little weird.
Catherine glanced at Ren, and naturally saw the unnaturalness in his eyes, and explained with a little helplessness: "Although the girl in Canossa is old enough to be called a lady, she is not married. Yes. Because of this issue, people in our family have worried about her a lot. After all, as you can see, I am not a few years older than her, but my son is so old. But she is always obsessed with business association management and extraordinary martial arts. "
When Ren heard this, he realized that the "marriage urging" in this world was no different from the previous life.
Marriage at the age of fifteen or sixteen is quite normal in this cruel world, but as an older leftover girl, Kanosha is naturally the object of the whole family's care.
Speaking of this, Catherine looked at Ren again, and said, "So...she pushed you out as a shield. Then, our family all knew of your existence, Mr. Ren. Of course, some little secrets, only me knew."
This explanation instantly resolved the little embarrassment in the atmosphere.
Ren looked at the cunning in the eyes of President Catherine, and understood that the relationship between her and Canossa might not be an ordinary intimacy.
If it was someone else, even if it was sent by Canossa, Catherine would more or less feel unworthy.
But this Ren, she has asked too many details from her niece, and she has long been interested in finding out.
Ren guessed right, she knew almost everything that happened between him and Canossa.
Looking at it today, it is really amazing.
She blinked and asked curiously: "Mr. Ren, why did you come to the chamber of commerce to hunt wilderness? To be honest, I was taken aback when I didn't know your identity just now."
Ren said: "I'm planning to come out this time to practice and find an opportunity to advance to the third level of extraordinary. Then I heard that there are ruins here in the 'Black Wind Collar', and I happened to see the recruitment information of your chamber of commerce in the Hunting Guild .Here comes after thinking about it.”
He roughly explained what happened, and then Catherine showed a daze, "Oh."
Speaking of this, the beautiful president looked at Ren's speech without delay in suturing his own wound, and said, "Kanosha also said that you are a very good doctor. At first, I thought it was a little unbelievable. But now... I think you are more powerful than what she said."
"."
When Ren heard this, he finally confirmed that Catherine probably heard about the details of how he healed Canossa in the Tiankeng Temple.
This is powerful, which naturally refers not only to medical ability, but to combat power.
Speaking of this, Catherine just remembered something, her expression tightened, and she asked, "By the way, where did that big monster [ghost] Kilos go?"
"Killed by me."
Ren said lightly: "Because the corpse is highly poisonous, I still need to deal with it, so I put it in the storage ring."
"Ah, you really killed it?"
Hearing this, although Catherine had already guessed, she was so shocked that she covered her mouth lightly.
"Um."
Ren nodded without further explanation.
Hearing that the powerful enemy was dead, Catherine completely relaxed the nerves that had been tensed all night. She glanced at Ren again, and said to herself with a voice like a fine line: "That girl Kanosha, you have really good eyesight."
Her words obviously did not intend to completely hide this man right in front of her eyes.
Ren naturally heard it too, but he didn't find it strange.
But thinking that there were some hired wild hunters in the team, and he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, he said, "Mrs. Catherine, I don't want others to know my identity now, so..."
Catherine: "No problem. I'll tell them later that you are a secret master I have arranged in the team."
She used this rhetoric to boost morale before, but she didn't expect it to be true. This Ren is really the strong support of their "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce".
Afterwards, the two chatted for a few more words, and it was only then that Ren knew that Kanosha had guessed that this time she would encounter sudden danger when she came out to hunt the wilderness.
There were several problems in the Chamber of Commerce before, and she suspected that there was an insider. Later, some clues also showed that there was an inner ghost around him. But because that guy hid it so well, he hasn't leaked much.
The most important reason for coming out this time is because of the appearance of the ruins, she must come here.
The second is that Catherine wants to confirm whether Thomas is really the ghost.
That's why a third-tier mage was secretly arranged to accompany him, and even the recruited third-tier assassin was also a high-level combat power secretly cultivated by the "Black Gold Chamber of Commerce".
This lineup is completely sufficient to deal with the common attacks of strange thieves.
Unexpectedly, the "Black Skull Phantom Thieves" actually came with a combat power at the level of a captain.
Ren knew what happened later.
Then, speaking of this, Catherine thought of something again, and asked, "Mr. Ren, how is your injury?"
Ren: "It's okay."
Catherine was not too surprised when she heard this. After all, she had heard about Ren's amazing medical skills.
At this time, she asked with a hint of expectation: "Then do you plan to continue exploring this ruin?"
Without waiting for Ren to answer, she explained: "Originally, the team suffered heavy losses this time, and the specially hired doctors were unfortunately killed in the battle just now. But I heard from Canossa that you are a very powerful Doctor. So, if you are willing to continue exploring, I still plan to go deep into the core area of the 'Munkel Ancient Country'. After all, I have some important information about this ruin."
Ren's combat strength is indeed higher than that of a third-order extraordinary. Although the team lost more than half of their manpower in this battle, it seems that the combat power has not weakened too much, and on the contrary, many uncertain troubles have been ruled out.
Ren was naturally very interested in the ruins, and asked, "Madam, do you know the information about this ruins?"
"Yes. Didn't I say that there might be a 'king city' in this desert?"
Catherine didn't hide anything, nodded and said: "Actually, it's not possible, but I'm sure that there is indeed a 'king city' here. Moreover, there was once [Thunder Nightmare] Alure, one of the 'Seventy-two Gods'." The special family built the kingdom's capital!"
