Crane tail salted fish from the Academy of the Brave

Chapter 509 The undercurrent under the calm current
"Well, actually, as long as that girl is in the Brave Academy, almost no one can do anything to her. I heard that the young master of the Carmon family is very angry about this, but even he doesn't dare to go directly to the Brave Academy to confront someone... …There is a legend there after all.”

Maybe it's because I was too close to the legends before, so I didn't feel any special majesty from them.But far away from the Infinite City, people still have a considerable degree of awe for the legend.

After all, most people are not even qualified to touch the threshold of legend in their lifetime, and the power that can save the world and easily destroy it is like a myth to mortals.

"Since you don't dare to find the person involved, what can you do to investigate this matter?"

"Actually... it doesn't matter what the illegitimate daughter is. If other families want to squeeze out the Camon family, there are many other ways besides using the girl's existence."

This is true. After all, in a struggle of this level, a rumored illegitimate daughter alone cannot reverse the situation.But of course Lauren is also worried about whether Rachel will be implicated in this. After all, although she once showed no interest in the father she has never met, who knows how this matter will develop in the end?
"However, some time ago, the quantum core of the central flagship output a strange report."

"The central flagship...Okay, you continue."

Loren estimated that the core of this air fleet was a super-large ship. He had not been able to see what the inside of the fleet looked like from the outside before, so he could only make an appropriate guess.

The map the old man gave him did not indicate the core area. That area should be the biggest secret of the Sky City Fleet.

"That report is top secret, but some fragments were deliberately leaked to the outside world...it seems to be related to the legendary Golden Capital."

It was another word that he had never heard before. Lauren rolled her eyes and told the man that she could not accept so much incomprehensible information at once.The man in the trench coat also noticed Lauren's doubts. He asked the tavern owner for another glass of wine, and then slowly continued talking.

"There has always been a legend about Sky City. There was land in this world before, and there once was a rich and ideal city on that land."

"Sounds like a fairy tale."

This kind of illusory thing has no credibility, and Laurent has no interest in it.In fact, after knowing that Rachel would be fine for the time being, he no longer wanted to listen to this guy's chatter.

"In order to explore the endless sky of this world, people used the technology there to create ships that could sail permanently. However, when people left the golden city, the city suddenly disappeared along with the earth. People who left their hometown Although I can still find some unknown objects in the sky, I can no longer find any trace of my hometown."

“It feels like a very ordinary story.”

"...After all, it's just a fairy tale to us." The man in the trench coat began to drink his second glass of wine. "To be honest, I don't believe this kind of story either. But the central core of the central flagship seems to be a product of that era, although most people have never seen that thing."

So, the ship at the core of the fleet group has actually been operating since the ancient times of this world?Lauren sighed at Sky City's technology, and then knocked on the table impatiently.

"Get down to business, or I'm going to beat you up and leave."

"Sorry... Actually there are rumors that the illegitimate daughter of the Camon family may be related to the legendary Golden Capital, so all the major forces are trying to verify the authenticity of this news. But Sky City Most people in the world do not have the ability to travel across the world, and can only rely on regular sailing ships controlled by the four major families to go to the outside world... The tickets are very expensive."

"I see, that's why you have to find outsiders to collect intelligence."

Most of the people in Sky City are probably like those reckless men in the arena just now. They are not high-level and have average talents. They also have almost no chance to go to other worlds. They can only stay in their own city and live the same life. .This may be enough for them, but it is hard to accept for Lauren who came out of Infinite City.

"I was commissioned by a certain big family to investigate this matter...so I want to find a mercenary from outside to help me investigate this matter. Mr. Dragon Hunter, can you accept this statement?"

"I guess there are a lot of things you haven't said yet, but I'm not very interested."

Lauren actually didn't want to get involved in this matter. As long as Rachel wouldn't be in danger for the time being, he didn't intend to cause any trouble for himself.

"...Wait a moment, I guarantee that the price will satisfy you. I can give you three standard tubes of the dragon's blood you want the day after tomorrow."

"That's somewhat sincere, let's talk about it."

Since he couldn't find any relevant information about the Dragon Emperor's skeleton for the time being, Luo Lun didn't mind completing the designated tasks assigned by Death Moon first.It's just that the man in a trench coat who calls himself a detective seems to be a little hesitant. He hesitated for a long time without saying what he wanted to do.

"If you don't tell me, I can't leave. I'm rushing back to sleep."

"Um...please help me deal with a person in this city first. That guy has been interfering with my work."

After talking for a long time, the man still didn't say what he planned to do.Luo Lun was a little angry, but since the reward given by the other party was not small, he thought it was best not to worry about this kind of thing for the time being.

"To be honest, I don't like this kind of job that takes people's lives."

"No, you don't need to kill that person, you just need to beat him... until he can't get out of bed for a year."

To be honest, this was more cruel than killing that guy... Lauren felt that this man was a bit indecisive, but he didn't want to be wanted by the city as soon as he came out.

"Give me that person's information, and I'll come here to find you after I get it done."

The man asked the tavern owner for a pen and paper, and then wrote an address and a name.Lauren took the piece of paper and stuffed it into his jacket pocket without looking at it.

"I'll come here the night after tomorrow to get what I want."

It was already very late, so Lauren left the tavern alone.He always felt that there was something fishy about this matter, but he knew too little about Sky City to make an accurate judgment.

The man in the trench coat who watched Lauren leave drank the second glass of wine in one gulp, then reached out and took out a mobile terminal-like object from the inside of the trench coat, and then put it to his ear.

"Teacher Youan, I have been in contact with the person you mentioned...I will handle the next matter properly."
