Seeing the two little guys falling asleep with smiles on their lips, Mag smiled with deep relief. Self-reliance and self-reliance are the correct way to start a fairy tale. Stories like throwing away everything and relying on Prince Charming are not suitable at all. Tell it to the little girl.
He quietly lay back on the bed to rest, and thought about today's events from beginning to end. The City Lord's Mansion has almost made a decision, but Buffett still has to see what Hill wants, and whether the three parties can enter into a real deal. During the negotiation stage, Hill has to make the final decision.
Then Mag looked at the small bag with 5 physical fitness points in his body. This was the reward given by the system after completing the system task today. Although it was not much, it was undoubtedly a timely help for Mag.
Going to Luodu requires you to face many dangers. The stronger you are, the greater your chances of survival will be.
Mag lay on the bed for a while, glanced at the time and it was already twelve o'clock, then quietly got up and went to the small balcony.
"System, turn on the sound insulation of the house and activate 5 physical fitness points." Mag went up to the balcony and said in his mind.
The last thunder and lightning strike was still fresh in his memory. No one wanted to experience this kind of thing again, but he had to rush up to make the thunder and lightning hit more violently. This sour feeling also made him feel helpless.
"The soundproofing effect of the restaurant has been fully activated, and the thunder is ready. Host, please close your eyes!"
The system's voice sounded, with a somewhat cheerful and gloating tone.
Mag curled his lips, refrained from speaking, and stood in the center of the balcony, waiting for the thunder and lightning to come.
There is probably nothing more painful than waiting to be struck by lightning in this world.
Therefore, when a thunderbolt as thick as a bucket fell from the sky and landed on Mag, a thunder exploded in his ears, and he even felt a sense of relief.
"call--"
After an unknown amount of time, Mag took a long breath and moved his completely stiff body. Thunder and lightning swam around on the surface of his body, making a snapping sound, as if he had just been fished out of the lightning.
"It's a good thing I took off all my clothes, otherwise it would be useless again."
Mag lowered his head and glanced at his body that was chopped like black coal. Even his shorts turned into fly ash at the slightest movement. A gust of autumn wind blew, and he shivered. He quickly put on the bathrobe on the side. Go upstairs.
While taking a shower, Mag felt the changes in his body after this lightning strike.
The most intuitive thing is the increase in strength. Mag felt that even if he faced an iron-clad bull now, he could knock it down with a single punch from the front.
This is not an arrogant idea, but a judgment of the extreme physical fitness of a fourth-level knight.
When an ordinary fourth-level knight faced an iron-skinned bull, relying on his superb swordsmanship and other abilities, he might be able to successfully hunt it.
But if this knight specializes in body training, his strong physical fitness can allow him to compete head-on with the Iron Barbarian Bull.
Alex was someone who could fight against a giant dragon back then, so his physical fitness was naturally extremely strong.
"Before going to Luodu, you must first practice your swordsmanship to the ultimate level of level four." Mag slowly clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind.
…
Malton Manor, in a large, luxurious and exquisite room, warm light illuminated a corner of the room. Hill sat alone by the window, holding a crystal glass filled with half a glass of wine, frowning and not knowing. Thinking about something.
The room was quiet for a long time. Hill looked at the wine glass in his hand, suddenly raised it and drank it down in one gulp. As if he had suddenly made up his mind, he smiled and said: "In the past, all my investments have been based on stability. , but this time, perhaps it is time to take a big gamble. If it succeeds, the Buffett family will go one step further and become the truly top family on the Norland continent. In addition to the bank and winery, the Buffett family will have one more The equally famous steam locomotive belongs to my glory."
"Mr. McGonagall, I hope you won't disappoint me." Hill put down the wine glass and turned off the light.
…
In a hotel room in the north of the city, Snar, who was dressed as a bearded man, looked at the map carefully under the light. There were already several places on the map circled in red, which looked a bit messy.
"It's not easy to find someone who is hiding in the city of chaos, and there is no one you can trust. I hope my luck will be better this time and I can find the young master and Sir Alex as soon as possible." Snar sighed. Taking a breath, he sat at the table and quickly wrote a letter and put it in a small bamboo tube. He quietly opened the window and blew a long, thin whistle.
A white hummingbird that was only the size of two fingers flew over and fell into his hand. He tied the small bamboo tube to the hummingbird's leg, threw it out the window, and disappeared into the night sky in the blink of an eye.
…
Luodu, the Second Prince's Mansion.
"Your Highness, this is a letter from Ambassador Carol." The butler quickly walked into the study, holding a letter in his hand, walked to the desk respectfully, and presented the letter.
"Carroll?" Qiao Xiu frowned, and the other letter in his hand turned into a dark green flame. He reached out and took the letter handed over by the butler and read it.
"Meg? Is it a coincidence or is there a connection?" About halfway through the letter, Qiao Xiu's frown deepened. He continued to read and shook his head again, "No, Alex can't do it. For a person who is good at cooking, even if he becomes a cripple, he will never be able to become a chef. He is such a proud person. Even if he dies, he will never be able to bow down to anyone or cook for others. A good cook.”
The housekeeper stood quietly aside, not daring to make a sound.
After reading Carol's letter, Qiao Xiu was silent for a while, then picked up a pen and paper and started to reply.
Carol has been the ambassador in the City of Chaos for more than ten years. This resume is enough for him to get a good official title after returning to Luodu to report on his duties. What he has to do is to activate his connections and let It was not difficult for him to get a position with real power.
As for what Carol said about having the most powerful chef in the City of Chaos serve dishes to the king for his birthday, Qiao Xiu was a little interested in it. He was really worried about what kind of birthday gifts and rare treasures could make the king happy and fond of him. There are countless people in the palace, and the beautiful king can't bear it. If this chef is really as good as Carol said, it would be worth a try.
"When Hughes is in trouble in the City of Chaos, let Carol use his connections in the City of Chaos one last time before leaving." Qiao Xiu stopped writing, folded the letter and handed it to the butler beside him.
…
"Mr. McGonagall, I wonder if you have already thought about it?"
Early the next morning, shortly after Mag got up, there was a knock on the door outside the restaurant.
