The Record of Unusual Creatures

Chapter 691 The Church’s Suggestions

Hao Ren found Betsy doing nothing in an officer's rest house in Hodecius Floating City. The latter was not able to attend high-level meetings because of his insufficient level. She basically kept wandering around the base for half a day. Relying on her reputation as a legendary mercenary and her status as a noble, she quite enjoyed eating and drinking in the rest house. When everyone saw Betsy, this guy was feasting in the cafeteria. He had set a table of high-end drinks and snacks for himself, and his face was full of joy.

If others were left alone, they would probably be disappointed for a while, but for this careless mercenary girl, it seemed that there were no unhappy words in her dictionary - Hao Ren even suspected that as long as he could make her feel good, he would be disappointed. Provided with food, clothing and food, this guy is happy to make people sell him.

The prerequisite is that she must be responsible for counting the money herself: she loves counting money.

As soon as Betsy saw everyone showing up, she greeted them cheerfully. Hao Ren went over and looked at the table of banquet-sized meals: "You feel quite at ease. You're going to die from eating so much by yourself, right?"

"Didn't I prepare this for you when I knew you were back?" Betsy clapped her hands happily. "I just couldn't help but taste two chicken legs, half a catty of cakes, four cakes and two bottles of wine. Welcome, saviors. , successfully saved the world again?”

Lily looked at Betsy in bewilderment, and suddenly looked impressed: "Your appetite has almost caught up with mine, and you have made great progress."

"You must be happy when you are happy in life. From now on, the king will not go to court early... I had a good fight today. After smelling the blood, my habit of being a mercenary came out again." Betsy waved her hand, "When I have food and drink, I will Open up and enjoy, what if you don’t have a meal?”

Elizabeth gently tugged on Hao Ren's sleeve: "Uncle Ren, if you are proud of life, you must enjoy it to the fullest. Is that the sentence behind it?"

Hao Ren said with a straight face: "Don't learn from her, she is incompetent."

But apart from the uneducated part, Betsy's attitude towards life is really enviable. Hao Ren couldn't help but think that if the end of the world really happened today, Betsy might really be the only starved ghost on Hodice - of course she would die. Also a possibility.

"What does it mean to be uneducated and incompetent?" Betsy's ears were filled with confusion. "Little girl, in two days I will teach you how to crush rocks on your chest. I also have skills... OK, OK, I can't stop talking nonsense. I'm just sitting here eating." Order something, looking at you guys... I guess you're still busy, will you leave later?"

Only then did Hao Ren feel that his stomach was empty. After thinking about it, he had been undergoing high-intensity physical exertion for most of the day and had not eaten anything until now. Not to mention Lily next to him. The husky girl was smelling the food. He was already in a trance due to the taste. At this time, he was already lying on the table and eating like a vicious dog. He could eat a whole chicken leg in the blink of an eye - and even the bones were not spit out!

"I'll leave in a moment." Hao Ren sat down opposite Betsy, and without being polite to her, he settled on his belly problem first, "A lot of things happened, I have to go back and report. Lily, please slow down, no one will compete with you... …Can you at least spit out the bones?”

"Ugh?" Lily raised her head with half a piece of meat bone in her mouth, her face covered with grease. She chewed the bone into pieces and swallowed it, "What?"

"...Forget it, you can do whatever you want." Hao Ren smiled dryly and shook his head, put Doudou on the table, gave the little guy a few pieces of sawdust to nibble on, and then chatted with Betsy while eating. Things about Horleta's life. This careless mercenary girl was still the same as before. She seemed extremely slow when it had nothing to do with money. She didn't even feel the change in the atmosphere of the floating city. Even when the martyrdom of the Pope was mentioned, she just sighed blankly: "Ugh...I can't believe it..."

Her mind couldn't process any above-mentioned insights or situation analysis.

During the chat, Hao Ren seemed to have returned to the feeling of living together with Betsy. This magical guy really didn't change much wherever he went. In the past, he simply thought that she was adaptable, but now it seems that this may not be the case. It's just that my nerves are too tough. Nangong Wuyue couldn't help but sigh: "Sometimes I really envy you. If someone had your attitude towards life, life would be much easier, and the landlord wouldn't have to worry about so many things all day long."

"Is that a compliment?" Betsy burped and patted her belly, "Thank you then. Life is quite simple to begin with. You worry about the things you can figure out, and you worry about the things you can't figure out. It fucks the balls - that's what the goddess taught me. Oh, your goddess over there."

After saying this, Beckett stretched herself comfortably: "Huh... I still talk so easily. It feels much more comfortable to chat with you. I used to go to banquets all day long to be polite to those old antiques, and I felt like I was holding back. , if you want to find someone to scold you, you have to put on makeup and go out of the city, and you often find that the person you are scolding is actually the housekeeper wearing makeup..."

What else could Hao Ren say? He just felt that it was not easy to work as an errand in Betsy's mansion...

Betsy was complaining carelessly, and suddenly she heard a voice coming from behind everyone: "It's about time you got used to the aristocratic life, at least understand your butler, he can't let you really go to the tavern. After fighting with those gangsters, the image of the legendary mercenary is not so defeated."

As soon as Betsy turned her head, her whole body froze, and she suddenly jumped up: "Oh... Lady Ofra! You, you, you... are you here? Have you eaten? What to drink? Do you have any instructions? Do you want it? Would you like a glass of ale? Where are the pastries? How about I give you a pat on the back..."

Ofra waved her hand: "Farewell, I don't dare to eat your food for the time being. I might as well put something in it."

As soon as Marshal Ofra said these words, Hao Ren thought of Betsy, an out-of-touch guy who drugged his idol in an attempt to get Ji. He looked at Betsy dumbfounded and murmured in a low voice: "So it turns out that you drugged her. Has it been exposed?"

Ofra has the blood of a demon hunter and her ears are sharper than Lily's. She immediately laughed when she heard Hao Ren's muttering: "With her reckless and irritable style, how can she not be exposed? Tell me." I make tea, and the tea can be scooped out with a spoon and eaten, and no one can tell there is something in it..."

Everyone around them immediately looked at Betsy with funny eyes. Betsy still blushed and explained: "I didn't pay attention at the time. I was too excited and poured them all in without looking at the weight..."

Lily asked enthusiastically: "Then what?"

"Then?" Marshal Ofra smiled and touched her chin. "Anyway, I am immune to most medicines, so I chewed them all. They are quite chewy."

So Hao Ren was astonished by both Betsy and Ofra. Regardless of the fact that the latter could chew the sweat medicine and eat it, the former was unprecedented in that he could add medicine to people's tea to make it chewy...

Lily looked at the combination of the idol and the idiot fan with a serious face, and made a serious suggestion: "I think you two should go for Ji."

Nangong Wuyue poked Hao Ren's lower back with the tip of her tail and whispered: "Is it really okay for us to discuss this kind of topic here so seriously? This doesn't sound like it is for all ages..."

"Oh, by the way, there's more business." At this time, Ofra seemed to suddenly remember something and interrupted her chat with Betsy. She raised her head and looked at Hao Ren, "I'm here to ask you something."

Hao Ren noticed that Ofra's relaxed atmosphere suddenly faded, and couldn't help but become serious: "What's the matter?"

"You...or more strictly speaking, do you want to try to accept the blessings of the church and listen to the voice of the goddess like the Huiyao believers?"

Hao Ren was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the other party would suddenly mention this. After a few seconds, he shook his head subconsciously: "You said you want me to join the cult? This doesn't sound very reliable...I think of you." I don’t have a problem with faith, but I am organized.”

"Maybe there is something wrong with my statement," Ofra looked seriously into Hao Ren's eyes, "I am not asking you to join the religion, I am just asking you to try the tattooing ceremony."

"Taken?" Hao Ren was startled for a moment, and then remembered that this was a ritual that new official clergy members of the Huiyao Sect had to undergo. By injecting source blood into the body, a kind of spiritual shaping was carried out in the process. , thus resonating with the power of the goddess somewhere in the universe. It is said that the clergy after the ceremony can communicate with the goddess, but he does not know why Ofra suddenly came to say this, "Why did you find me? Is it because of us? I have helped solve many problems, and the church decided to use this method to 'reward' me? If so, then I'm not very interested..."

"Let the master tell you." Ofra said, raising her finger and pointing behind everyone.

Hao Ren saw the bearded ascetic walking over there.
