The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Despite the shock, the dinner at Rennes' house continued, but the whole atmosphere became a little weird.

It's like winning five million in the lottery in a previous life, and the whole family will be very happy.

But if you win one billion, the family will be happy and think a lot, especially the adults.

At this moment, Old Ren and Emma's minds were still in chaos, with all kinds of thoughts coming to them.

For example, what should I wear if I become the mother of a baron?

In addition, what should we pay attention to in our words and deeds so as not to lose Ren's face?

Will other nobles laugh at these two bumpkins?

Only my sister Mint was eating happily as always.

Suddenly, Mint's big eyes flickered twice, as if he had thought of something, and said, "By the way, brother, Sister Jenny, who is wearing very nice clothes, came to see you today."

"I said you weren't here, and then Sister Jenny didn't say anything and left."

"Huh?" After thinking about it, Ren nodded, indicating that he understood.

at the same time.

The county town of Meister.

On the second floor of Baron Norman's family residence, there is a luxuriously decorated study room.

Baron Norman, dressed in an aristocratic hunting attire, was frowning at a pile of materials on the table.

On these papers, a person's name appeared invariably - Renn.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Baron Norman raised his eyebrows and said.

His son Dennis walked in with a joyful face and said, "Father, I feel that I have hit some kind of bottleneck. I should try taking advanced potions."

When Baron Norman heard the news, he forced a smile on his face and said, "Not bad."

However, Dennis was greatly disappointed. What he had expected was his father's high praise for him, not just a calm expression saying "not bad".

In the scenario he imagined, when his father expressed high approval for him, he would take the opportunity to propose a marriage with the Crawley family.

Because when he was practicing with the divine blood recently, he thought a lot about the beauty Baroness Crowley.

But the difference between the scene now and what he expected was huge.

Dennis didn't dare to say anything. He looked at his father's expression. Although his face was still as expressionless as a sculpture, as a son, Dennis could feel that his father's mood didn't seem to be that good.

After thinking about it, just when he was about to ask, suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he spotted the familiar name on the desk file - Renn!

Um?

So much material, all about Ren?

Dennis’ pupils suddenly shrank!

Only then did he realize that his father, who had always been a strong man, was actually troubled by this farmer's son!

Dennis was a little confused.

Didn't my father say that he had left this matter to an old friend who was almost foolproof?

how

After pouting twice, Dennis finally asked, pointing to the materials on the table, and said, "Father, is there something wrong with this?"

Baron Norman's expression darkened, he sighed and nodded.

This couldn't help but make Dennis anxious.

A problem actually occurred again!

Damn it!

Damn it, could this farmer's son be the illegitimate son of the goddess of luck?

I sent people over one after another, but they couldn't kill the opponent!

"Father, this. How is this possible!"

"Didn't you say that this old friend of yours has a record of killing great knights?"

"Even if your friend's strength declines, killing an official knight should be as easy as killing a chicken!"

Hearing his son's question, Baron Norman did not answer immediately. He had been thinking about this question just now.

The study fell into an eerie silence for a while.

After a while, Baron Norman seemed to have organized his words, and his deep voice sounded:

"Since I didn't get any news from Adams in the past two days, I had doubts and went to his store to have a look."

"As expected, something went wrong."

"Soon, I got this information through several friends who worked in functional departments."

Having said this, Baron Norman pointed to the information on the desk.

Dennis immediately reached out, picked up a document and read it, only to see a paragraph on it, which seemed to be copied from an official document:

"Ten days ago, Adams, the most wanted criminal in the Empire, was surrounded and killed by Goldshire Sheriff Hamilton, Deputy Sheriff Lane and dozens of Night Watch elites, and was successfully killed."

"Work together to encircle and suppress?" Dennis couldn't help but murmured when he saw these words.

No wonder he missed, it turned out to be besieged!

Dennis seems to have found a reasonable explanation.

After all, the empire's paramilitary force, the Night's Watch, is not an uncoordinated group of fish like the bandits, but a fighting group with a tacit understanding that one plus one is greater than two.

Of course, the most important thing is that the strength of my father's old friend has declined too much.

Just as Dennis was lost in thought, Baron Norman added something almost ‘earth-shattering’!

"In addition, I got the latest news from Alonso, that is, this Renne has just passed the nobility canonization assessment of the Province of Münster and was awarded the title of baron!"

"What!"

"baron???"

Upon hearing the news from his father, Dennis's eyes suddenly widened as round as walnuts, and his mouth was so wide that he could almost stuff a whole roasted chicken into it.

Damn it, is there anything so outrageous!

I was still complacent about being able to take advanced potions, but as a result, this untouchable suddenly transformed into a noble!

Moreover, he is still a baron!

This is the same title as his father!

The status of this once untouchable man has actually surpassed that of the son of a baron!

Dennis felt at this moment that the towering 'sense of superiority' he had always had in his heart suddenly collapsed!

"Impossible, this is impossible! There must be a mistake!" A few seconds later, Dennis' face turned red, his chest heaved violently, and he retorted emotionally.

"The imperial official letter arrived in the county two days ago, and the person handling it is none other than Alonso. Now the relevant information has been handed over to Earl Habs." Baron Norman did not say anything to refute, but calmly stated a fact.

As if someone had poured ice water on him, Dennis's body trembled for a few times and then calmed down immediately.

He knew that even though his father and Baron Alonso could both make mistakes, Count Habsburg would not, and the Empire would not.

When he thought that if he saw Ren in the future, he would have to salute first and address him as 'Lord Baron', Dennis felt even more disgusting than eating warm dog shit!

After being stunned for a while, Dennis came back to his senses and asked with an uneasy look on his face: "Father, what should we do now?"

"Later, I'll find a friend."

Hearing this, Dennis resisted the urge to question his father, and asked for friends?

but

After a pause, Baron Norman continued: "If that doesn't work, I will directly propose a 'bloody duel' to Ren!"

Dennis was very excited when he heard these words. He had long wanted his father to take action and directly deal with this farmer's son.

As for the reason why his father could not challenge Ren to a duel in an honest manner before, he also knew it very well.

Because if a noble proposes a duel with a commoner, he will be condemned by other nobles and even the Imperial Council of Elders.

In addition, the most important point is that civilians can refuse such unfair duel requests.

But now that Ren has become a baron, his title is equivalent to that of his father, which makes dueling feasible.

In addition, duels between nobles are divided into 'bloody duels' and 'ordinary duels'. An ordinary duel ends when one party surrenders, but a bloody duel ends when one party dies!

However, the bloody duel must be submitted to the local governor for approval, and must be conducted in a designated place under the witness of multiple overseers.

"Father, are you sure?" Although Dennis had absolute confidence in his father, who had rich experience and a strong record, he still couldn't help but ask.

"I spent a lot of money to buy a secret medicine before. Now there is news that there is a potion master in the imperial capital who is willing to help make it. After I take the potion, I can repair the hidden wounds on my body and restore my peak combat power."

Baron Norman did not answer Dennis directly.

"Great! If you, father, can return to your peak form, Renne will definitely lose!" Dennis' face turned red with excitement.

"Okay, I have to go out."

I saw Baron Norman riding a carriage and arriving at a heavily guarded low building - the Meister County Prison.

Baron Norman got off the carriage and after being informed by the guards, he came to an office.

After a while, the middle-aged man Magis, wearing the uniform of a prison guard captain, appeared.

And after he saw the arrival of Baron Norman, there was an almost undetectable surprise in his eyes.

Why are several nobles in Meist County suddenly interested in contacting their Zalal Resistance Army recently?

After some pleasantries, Baron Norman revealed his intention:

"So, as long as your organization can kill the new Baron Renn, then the Norman family can agree to the previous request made by your organization." Baron Norman said in a deep voice.

Magis was so surprised that he almost screamed!

But his many years of experience as a secret agent still forced him to resist this impulse.

Renn again?

What did this Ren do?

Why did Alonso and Baron Norman in front of him want to kill him.

If it is as described by the two of them, then can this Renne find a way to be absorbed into the organization? Maggies suddenly had an idea.

After all, faith can be brainwashed, no, it can be converted!

Magis calculated the time. It has been five days, and within a week, there will definitely be a result.

In addition, he did not expect that one thing could actually be used as a favor for two people, so he gestured with his index finger confidently and said:

"Of course, no problem, a week! Baron Norman, within a week, I can give you an accurate answer!"

Baron Norman looked at the resistance liaison in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze. He always felt that at that moment, the other person looked at him strangely.

In addition, the other party's answer was too sure, so sure that he didn't quite believe it.

Forget it, I came with the attitude of giving it a try anyway.

Years of experience in maritime combat told him that the most reliable thing is his own strength.

After you go back, you'd better take some secret medicine!
