Chapter 158 Fighting Club
‘This mission…as expected! ’
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and chose to accept.
The mission "Plague Tale" is very much like a transitional plot in the novice stage, but the truth behind it may not be that simple.
After all, the scope involved is too wide and the impact is huge.
‘Compared to doing this task myself, it seems that someone is more suitable...’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
A carefree figure flashed in my mind——
With his messy hair on his head, he held two pieces of raw beef in his hands and chatted with them.
"Everything will be prosperous if people can make full use of their talents. Maggie should be allowed to take my place...to give full play to her subjective initiative and give her the opportunity to grow." ’
Chen Lun thought to himself, and was suddenly moved by himself.
Maggie met herself, just like Chollima met Bole.
"Mr. Robert, Ms. Jones..."
Chen Lun turned his head and looked at them, smiling slightly.
The couple was a little nervous. They could tell that the identity of the black-haired young man in front of them was not simple, but they didn't know what he wanted to do.
"I respect both of you for your kindness and fearlessness."
Chen Lun gently took off his black hat, gently touched his chest and bowed.
"Oh, this is nothing..."
Mr. and Mrs. Robert quickly bent down and returned the gift.
Chen Lun smiled and continued:
"If you plan to save money to carry out rescue operations outside the city, I think I can help you with funds..."
When Robert and his wife heard his words, they suddenly looked surprised.
It soon turned into joy again.
"Are you telling the truth?!"
"Of course, this way you no longer need to use the name of 'Black Messenger' to sell anti-epidemic drugs in the inner city... To be honest, there will be certain risks if this continues."
Chen Lun said, raised his hand, shook it, and motioned to the paper bag in his hand.
"The 'anti-epidemic candy' you developed is pretty good, and the cost should be relatively low. We can cooperate in manufacturing it...
In addition, I can recommend a doctor to you. She is also very knowledgeable about these things and may be able to help you fight the epidemic together. ”
Chen Lun did this for two reasons.
First, he didn't want these two people to do things in his name anymore, so as not to cause trouble. Although he did not admit it, he could not say that this identity would be useful in the future, and he could not tarnish the reputation of the "Black Messenger".
Secondly, the couple did not do anything evil, so there was no need to punish them. Instead, they could let Maggie join them and go out together to investigate the plague.
This will not only allow Maggie to increase her mysterious accumulation, but also get the formula for this "anti-epidemic candy bar". It will be improved at that time and can be sold to players as regular medicine after the public beta.
After all, it seems that this plague will not disappear anytime soon.
"Oh sir, that's so generous of you...I don't know your name yet."
Robert said respectfully.
"Jack Speight."
"Mr. Jack, as you guessed, the cost of this 'epidemic prevention candy bar' is not high, because we need to take care of the poor families outside the city... My wife and I even made plans not to charge any money."
Robert and his wife Jones looked at each other and smiled.
"In addition, you want to recommend a doctor, of course there is no problem, but this is a very dangerous thing, please be sure to convey this information...
Regarding funding, you don't have to give too much money, we only need 50 gold pounds. ”
He said, his tone was a little nervous.
Although they say it doesn’t take much, 50 gold pounds is not a small amount.
‘Most of the money earned by the whole team from working in the past few days has been invested in operations... Fortunately, I have about a hundred gold pounds left on hand, otherwise it would be embarrassing. ’
Chen Lun nodded.
"No problem."
He pretended to take money from his pocket, but in fact he took out the small pocket from the blood poem ring and poured the currency on the panel into the pocket.
Immediately he reached out and handed the bag containing fifty gold coins into Robert's hand.
"Thank you... thank you!"
The smiles on the faces of Robert and his wife Jones were almost overflowing.
[Robert’s favorability towards you has increased! Currently for closeness! 】
[Jones’ favorability towards you has increased! Currently for closeness! 】
"So... I wish you all the best."
Chen Lun smiled slightly.
At this time, he suddenly smelled a burnt smell.
Ms. Jones groaned, then quickly ran back to the big clay pot and started stirring the syrup inside again.
"Mr. Robert, farewell."
Chen Lun chuckled and lowered the brim of his hat.
Then in Robert's eyes full of respect, he turned and left.

Chen Lun came to the foil fighting club again.
After entering the lobby on the first floor, the waitress walked straight over.
When she saw it was this familiar handsome guy, the smile on her face became even brighter.
Thinking about what the boss Charles told me, I vaguely felt that Mr. Jack's status was high, and I was a little upset that I didn't leave him my contact information last time.
Don't miss it this time.
"Good day, Mr. Jack."
The waitress held the clipboard and leaned forward slightly.
The darkness of the valley became brighter, and the scenery became more beautiful.
She nonchalantly pulled out a gold-gilt card from the clipboard.
"This is a limited edition VIP card for the Foil Fighting Club. Mr. Charles has specially told you that he will give it to you when you come..."
The waitress handed the VIP card to Chen Lun's hand.
By the way, her fingers gently touched the man's palm.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
He felt that there was a note underneath the gilded card.
Looking up, the waitress's red lips were slightly open and her tone was soft:
"Mr. Jack, you can call me Candice... Mr. Charles went out temporarily, but he will be back soon. You can go inside and have a look."
"Miss Candice, thank you very much."
Chen Lun smiled slightly and raised the gold-gilded VIP card in his hand.
When the young waitress named Candice saw his smile, she was in a daze for a moment and couldn't help biting her lip.
"This is a limited VIP card for the club. With it, you can come to the club at any time and provide services for any project...and there are also various training courses here, which are also free of charge.
Of course, if you are tired, you can also dine, bathe, check in and rest in the club. ”
Speaking of "bathing" and "checking in", Candice quietly winked at him.
Chen Lun smiled softly.
"Okay, I understand... In that case, I will go in and take a look first. If Mr. Charles comes back, please let me know."
After that, he bypassed Candice and walked straight into the club.
Candice was left standing there blankly.
"Can he not even see my obvious hint...? Why?!"
She frowned and looked at the tall figure slowly leaving with a look of unhappiness.
"Am I not pretty enough or hot enough?! Or... is this guy gay?! Damn it!"
Candice stamped her feet, tightened her grip on the clipboard, lowered her head and left.
‘You also left your address? Tsk tsk...’
Chen Lun walked slowly in the corridor, opened the note and glanced at it. Immediately, he crushed the note into powder and threw it in the trash can.
He had no interest in this kind of one-night stand that was purely for excitement.
Bang! Bang!
"Ha!"
Ping pong! Bang! !
"Hey!"
Passing by two training rooms, Chen Lun could see several men boxing and weightlifting inside through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
The muscular man, bare-chested, punched the sandbag hard, causing beads of sweat to splash and an explosion to be heard.
Chen Lun paused for a moment.
The muscular men in the training room couldn't help but smile at each other when they noticed a tall gentleman in formal dress standing outside the window.
"This kind of thin pretty boy, I can beat him to pieces with one punch."
One of them whispered, and the others couldn't help laughing.
"Haha..."
"They are probably guys who come to the club to have fun. It's a pity that there is no official game today, otherwise we can make a lot of money from these guys."
"..."
Chen Lun showed a polite smile, turned and left.
Although I can't hear the sound of their chatting, I can roughly judge the content of their words based on their mouth shape with my powerful dynamic vision.
He didn't care about the ridicule from these people behind his back.
Of course, if the other party really wants to try and make you look for teeth all over the floor, maybe you can try to make them confused.
After staying away from these training rooms, Chen Lun discovered several other training rooms along the way, where some guests were using various cold weapons.
There are various types of swords such as long swords, short swords, broad swords and two-handed swords, as well as long-handled weapons such as spears, lances, halberds and war hammers, and even less popular weapons such as large axes, flails and long whips.
All kinds and varieties.
Ping ping ping pong!
Chen Lun listened to the crisp sound of clashing in his ears and cast his eyes with interest.
He also found several promotional posters posted on the bulletin board in the corridor, which seemed to be various types of fighting exchange competitions.
These competitions have bonuses, which greatly increases Chen Lun's interest.
But when he saw that the number of prizes was only a few, or at most a dozen gold pounds, his interest quickly faded away like the enthusiasm he had just finished playing a certain sport.
"Hey! Mr. Jack!"
Suddenly, a voice came and Chen Lun paused.
Looking back, I saw the well-dressed, somewhat ruffian aristocratic old man leaning against the wall and greeting me.
"What a coincidence, I met you again today... Would you like a drink?"
Siebert held a long sword in his left hand and a glass of red wine in his right hand, smiling and sweating profusely.
"Mr. Siebert, thank you for your enthusiasm, but no need."
Chen Lun walked over and politely declined.
"Oh, that's such a pity. I got this red wine at a high price from the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce's auction..."
Siebert came over with a mysterious look on his face.
“This red wine not only has a rich and mellow taste, but also has special effects!”
He winked and gave a look that any man would understand.
Chen Lun's expression remained unchanged, but he was secretly cursing in his heart.
‘The bottle of red wine that Siebert drank, could it be that I brewed it myself...’
Siebert drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, let out a sigh, and placed the glass on the window sill casually.
He held the sword hilt upside down and pointed towards the training room.
"Mr. Jack, why don't you come with me and take a look? This is the only open-air training room in the club. It's very big inside. My swordsmanship teacher is also in there... How about you let me show you my skills? I just learned a few moves!"
Siebert flicked the sword with his fingers, making a clanging sound.
Chen Lun was very interested in this and wanted to experience the so-called swordsmanship. His fighting skills have always been purely based on his own instincts and have not been systematically learned.
The [Animal Tamer] and [Soothsayer] did not give him relevant experience in this area.
"Yes, that's exactly what I meant, Mr. Siebert."
Chen Lun smiled. (End of chapter)
