Chapter 73: Suspicions in those days, the strange son of the star(1/2)

The Demon King showed up last night. Such a big thing happened, so naturally the royal family had to send someone to put an end to it.

Outside the tent, Ren met the strong man of the Clement family.

He has long gray hair, and his face is a bit old, but his physique is still strong. He wears light armor, showing muscular and scarred arms, and has a strong momentum like an old lion.

As the distance got closer, Ren could feel the surging fighting spirit energy in the old man's body. It was very violent and the blood energy was very strong. It was like a big melting pot. The red gold light was dazzling and the heat was like substance.

A half-step king-level powerhouse would not be inferior to the Thunder Sword Master and Barbarian King Hidley.

Ren looked at the old man and sighed: "The Clement family has really amazing background."

This old man is not among the top ten saints of Faloran, and he has never even heard of this person.

But it is also understandable that hiding one's clumsiness and pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger is not his patent, many people can do it.

A family or force is likely to have a hidden strong person. After all, if you don't publicize such a breakthrough, it will be difficult for others to know about it.

The old man came over, smiled heartily, and said:

"I wasted my time and lived a few more years. This strength is nothing compared to that of the Sword Master... I am Vadim Arthur Charles Clement, the king's grandfather."

Grandfather of Charles VI?

Ren secretly thought that he is senior enough.

This is the characteristic of extraordinary nobles. There is always no shortage of grandfathers, great-grandfathers, and even older elders in the family.

Therefore, in Saigon Continent, if a noble family head or king is not strong enough, the power in his hands can easily be diluted and reduced to a role like a spokesperson.

A king like Charles VI really didn't have much interest in him. The older generation shouted around and didn't take him seriously at all.

Ren and Vadim chatted casually for a while, did not stay in the camp for long, and took a four-wheeled carriage together to travel to Tampa County.

On the way, Vadim asked about the details of last night, his face a little gloomy.

"The dark camp has increasingly no bottom line. A giant actually ordered his subordinates to massacre civilians on the border. It's really...sigh."

It can only be said that the demon emperor has very low moral integrity and has no bottom line.

Renn also felt that it was somewhat undervalued for a demon giant to act like this, and asked doubtfully: "Has Faloran ever offended the demon emperor?"

Vadim looked a little embarrassed and said: "Back then, our ancestors killed Balor's wife."

Renn: "..."

It turns out that the conqueror killed his wife. No wonder the Demon King couldn't wait to take revenge on Farolan as soon as he woke up.

This kind of grudges is quite common. The two camps fight and kill each other, and too many people die.

Ren looked at the large withered yellow grass beside the road, feeling a little lost.

It is already mid-November, early winter, the morning is foggy, the ground is covered with a layer of white frost, and there is a slight chill.

He hesitated for a moment, then asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with Irene?"

The smile on Vadim's face disappeared instantly, and he looked at Renn with a somewhat unkind look.

The Clement family originally hoped that the Archduke Conor would get married and marry Irene.

But the other party was not willing to marry, and instead turned to marry Princess Kesha of the Nokman Empire.

Vadim had a bad temper. He took a deep breath, resisted the urge to punch this bad boy, and said dryly:

"Irene has woken up."

Not only did she wake up, Irene also underwent earth-shaking changes, almost becoming a different person. If the Clement family hadn't blocked the news, it would have shocked the entire continent.

Renn felt the old man's disgust and said with a guilty conscience:

"Then she...did she mention me?"

Even a woman like Nightmare Witch who is used to being submissive can't accept his marriage to Kesha.

Not to mention the unruly and willful Irene, who was probably furious. If Aunt Lucy hadn't stopped her, there would have been a Shura scene on the wedding day.

Vadim's gray beard trembled and he said angrily:

"You should ask Irene, girl, about these things yourself. Anyway, she said she would skin you."

Renn: "..."

Alas, my head hurts.

Irene dares to love and hate, and is no less powerful than Kesha. They are both on the mainland of Saigon, so some things are unavoidable and difficult to appease.

If he had known he wouldn't have slept with her in the first place... Well, it seems like she pushed him, right?

He is the victim.

There is no need for him to feel guilty, it is the female gangster who is responsible for him.

Thinking about it this way, Ren felt at ease again, the sadness on his face faded, and he felt that the matter was not serious, and the worst he could do was to forcefully suppress her.

The atmosphere afterwards was somewhat awkward.

The two of them were not familiar with each other, and there was also an age gap, so they could only talk about some non-nutritious topics.

At noon, the sun is shining brightly.

Four red flame horses pulled a luxurious carriage with royal markings to Tampa County.

Tampa County is the most important industrial city in the north of the kingdom and is famous for its ore resources.

The metal ores here not only have a wide variety of types, but are also rich in reserves, and the weapons manufacturing industry is also extremely developed, making it one of the kingdom's arsenals.

After the war started, the place became more lively and there was a kind of abnormal prosperity.

After entering the city, Ren looked around.

Various weapon shops and blacksmiths can be seen everywhere on the streets, and the suburbs are full of Force workshops and weapons factories. Towering chimneys reach into the sky like iron towers, constantly spewing out thick and dirty smoke.

The factory is working overtime, and in the dry port, workers are constantly loading and unloading various goods.

It doesn't matter if the railway line is paralyzed. There are also various transport vehicles pulled by gray-armored bulls, earth dragons, wrist horses and other strange beasts that can carry goods across the mountains and ridges.

Renn saw many weapon shops and factories with the logo of the Steam Alliance, a pattern consisting of large and small double gears, a gun barrel and five silver cones of light.

"The Steam Alliance has made a lot of money."

Ren sighed, suddenly realizing the power of the Steam Alliance.

Even though it ranks at the bottom of the four hegemonic forces, the Steam Alliance's status in the military industry, the resources it controls, and its economic strength are terrifying.

Wherever there is war, there are them, and they are truly worthy of their reputation.

Vadim glanced at Ren and said:

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I heard that you have some conflicts with the Speaker of the Steam Alliance. If you can, please don't make too much of a fuss."

Renn raised his eyebrows and said with some interest: "How do you say this?"

"The Steam Alliance is not particularly strong on the surface, but secretly it is different. In fact, the Natural School, the Church, the Demon Hunter Association, and even all powerful countries have seats on the Silver Eagle Council."

"It's not a big deal to offend the Speaker, but it's no small matter to offend the entire Steam Alliance."

"For example, now, the Kingdom of Falorland relies heavily on the Steam Alliance for arms, mining, and new factories. The Steam Alliance provides technical and economic support, otherwise the war on the front line cannot be fought."

"If the cooperation between the Steam Alliance and Farolland has problems or is even interrupted because of you, the consequences will be serious."

Vadim hinted at some words of caution.

It’s cool to have big fists.

Violence can solve many problems, but it cannot solve all problems.

Unless you are strong enough to suppress the entire continent, you still have to abide by some basic game rules, but the strong will have greater privileges.

If Archduke Conor insists on killing the Steam Alliance, then the first unlucky person will be Farrowland, and it will be very unpleasant.

Renn nodded and said:

"I understand. In fact, the Dane family did not come to trouble me. The matter is basically over."

The Dane family (the family of the First Speaker) was very sensible and didn't mention anything about Muggsi, so he naturally wouldn't have any overreaction.

Vadim nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

When I first heard that Archduke Conor had killed Muggsy, the speaker's son, the most nervous person was not the Steam Alliance, but the Clement family.

As long as the matter is over, it won't benefit anyone if it gets too big.

Wren didn't stay in Tampa County much longer.

The streets of this heavily industrial city are filled with all kinds of green plants and flowers, but there is still a lingering smell of smoke, exhaust gas and slag in the air. It is really not a livable city.

He was planning to fly to Wisteria City, the capital of Farorland, to meet Irene first, and then go to the southern plains.

Before leaving, he suddenly remembered what his mother-in-law Helen had ordered when he left the empire last time, so he found Vadim and prepared to ask for some information.

Renn sat on the sofa in the villa and said:

"Senior, how much do you know about Lucy Wilson's child, the Star Child who originally died in infancy?"

Upon hearing this, Vadim, who was making tea with a tea set, suddenly flicked his wrist, and the hot water overflowed and the tea leaves spilled all over the floor.

The old man's face changed drastically, with wrinkles on his face. There was deep fear and fear in his eyes, and he said:

"Don't mention this matter anymore, it's over!"

Ren was a little surprised and said: "What's going on? Is there another hidden secret in this matter?"

"Hidden secret? Hahahaha..."
To be continued...
