Two hours later, Rosen, Tiralilin, Baron Elliot and his guards rode out of Thorn Manor on horseback and headed for a larger manor closer to Lyon Town.
Naturally, this manor is also Baron Elliot's property.
At this moment, Baron Elliot's attitude towards Rosen was very complicated.
Fear and admiration.
He was afraid of the powerful strength displayed by Rosen, and admired the various wonderful abilities displayed by Rosen.
Especially the spell that was just cast on him, which made him feel as if he was rejuvenated.
All mortals will die one day, but all mortals fear death.
Generally speaking, the higher the position a mortal holds and the more wealth and glory he enjoys, the more he fears death.
Therefore, Rosen only used a small two-ring spear spell to completely defeat Baron Elliot.
On the way, he said in a somewhat flattering and cautious manner:
"Mr. Rosen, my wife was very beautiful when she was young, but in recent years, she has become uglier and more bloated every year."
"If that were all, it would be fine, but she likes to have fun more and more every year, which always makes me feel extremely miserable."
"I wonder if you can help her regain her beauty?"
Rosen smiled and said, "It's not a difficult task, but I am very curious."
"With your status, you can just keep a few young and beautiful mistresses. Why do you have to be so obsessed with your wife?"
Lord Elliot smiled bitterly.
"Mr. Rosen, this is indeed a good idea for ordinary barons."
"But my wife is of noble status, the second daughter of Count Labreque, and she has raised three sons and two daughters for me. She is also very jealous. She won't let me even look at a maid, let alone a mistress."
Rosen immediately understood that every family has its own problems, and the Baron's life was not always smooth sailing.
Thanks to the Baron's previous introduction, he now knows that this demiplane is not large, roughly equivalent to a circle with a diameter of more than 2,000 kilometers.
There is only one continent, with a radius of only 1,300 kilometers.
On this continent, there are three powerful kingdoms, namely the Kingdom of Aoshuang, the Kingdom of Cologne, and the Kingdom of Linde.
The political systems of the three kingdoms were basically the same.
An earl is the lord of a county, and there are only about 20 earls in a kingdom on average, so an earl is equivalent to a feudal lord in the kingdom. He has a very high status and his weight in the kingdom is second only to the duke and the king.
In comparison, the Baron was just a mayor. If he wanted to keep his position, he naturally did not dare to offend the Earl's daughter.
So Rosen shrugged and said, "Baron, when we get to Tulip Manor, bring your wife to me. I will make her as beautiful as a fairy."
When he said this, Rosen secretly sighed: "Who would have thought that I would go back to my old profession of plastic surgery?"
Baron Elliot was very happy and asked earnestly, "Mr. Rosen, are you planning to preach in this mortal world?"
Immediately after saying this, he said, "I can guarantee that with your power, your church will spread like wildfire in the mortal world. Even the Church of the Eternal Sun cannot suppress your brilliant light."
Rosen smiled noncommittally: "I remember you just said that the underground ruler of this area is the Order Sage Talos?"
Elliot nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it is Talos. But that guy is just a fortune teller, he doesn't have any other special abilities, he is far inferior to you, sir."
Rosen smiled and said, "I haven't decided what to do yet."
"However, I like to help people solve their problems. No matter who they are or what difficulties they encounter, as long as they come to me and pay enough, I will definitely help them."
"My rule is also very simple, that is, fair trade."
"I will ask for some price from everyone who asks for help. The price is different for each person. It depends on my mood, but it will never exceed the limit of the person asking for help."
"Just like you, Baron, all I need is your service."
Baron Elliot nodded repeatedly, becoming more and more in awe of Rosen. He felt that this extraordinary being was unfathomable, shrouded in an indescribable mysterious aura.
Rosen continued, "Baron, you are a wise man. I am willing to do more business with you."
Baron Elliot was delighted: "Mr. Rosen, I am also very willing to do business with you."
Rosen said, "Then I will make a contract with you."
He whispered these words in his heart.
"The content of the contract is that every time you find a trader for me, I will strengthen your body, making you stronger, and your natural life span will increase by one year accordingly."
"Please note that only you and I know the contents of this contract. As long as you keep your mouth shut, this secret will never reach the ears of a third person."
"I can also assure you that there is no upper limit to the increase in lifespan. If you find 100 of them, you can live 100 more years. If you have the ability to find 1,000 of them, I will let you live 1,000 years."
Baron Elliot's heart was pounding.
He turned around to observe the situation of his men, and found that they did not make any unusual movements, obviously they did not hear the contents of the contract.
He nodded repeatedly to show that he agreed to the deal.
Rosen didn't say anything more during the rest of the process.
Baron Elliot wanted to talk more with Rosen, but he was suppressed by an invisible aura. He tried to speak several times, but in the end he couldn't make a sound.
Also, because Rosen and Tiralilin were disguised as ordinary people, they did not attract much attention along the way.
The manor was built on a hillside, and its area and architectural quality far exceeded that of Thorn Manor.
Standing at the window of the room on the top floor of the main building of the manor and looking north, you can have a clear view of the situation in Lyon Town.
It can be seen that the main town area of Lyon is oval in shape, spanning 3 kilometers from north to south and only 2 kilometers from east to west.
Judging from the number of houses, the town's permanent population is about 5,000. As a closed world with productivity similar to that of the Middle Ages, this size of town is already very good.
There are many villages scattered around the suburbs surrounding the town, all of which should be the baron's territories.
Taking into account the backward level of productivity, the number of farmers must be at least ten times that of the non-agricultural population in order to support the latter.
Therefore, the Baron’s entire jurisdiction is estimated to be 50,000 to 60,000 people.
"It's a nice town, Baron." Rosen praised indifferently.
Baron Elliot always had the illusion that he was being inspected by the king, but it was obvious that there was only one person on the other side.
At this time, he was praised by the other party, and he immediately felt flattered, and said repeatedly: "Mr. Rosen, thank you very much for your compliment."
After saying that, I don’t know what to say anymore.
Rosen also felt that he was in the way, so he said, "Baron, go and execute our first contract and bring your wife here."
After saying this, he raised his hand and patted the baron's shoulder, directing a new natural force to him.
The baron felt a warm current flowing into his body. He felt extremely comfortable and almost couldn't help moaning.
This also instantly made him very motivated: "Mr. Rosen, I will bring my wife over right away."
He ran out of the room at a trot and was in the yard in a flash. He rode his horse and galloped towards the town of Lyon in the north with his guards.
He behaved like a young man with great energy.
Soon after the Baron left, the door behind him was pushed open and Tiralilin, wearing a brand new black leather armor, walked in.
Rosen watched the baron go away, and without looking back, he asked, "My dear, where do you think Orletus is hiding?"
Their next goal was clear: to find Emperor Safinos' hiding place.
To achieve this, he needed all kinds of intelligence support. This was also the reason why he wanted to sign a trade contract with the baron.
Tiralilin walked up to Rosen and whispered, "I originally guessed it should be near the central temple of the Eternal Flame."
"But since the Abyss has invaded here, everyone must think so. If he hides in the Great Temple again, it will be very dangerous."
"So, for safety reasons, he should hide in a place where no one would expect him to be."
Rosen nodded in agreement: "That's what you said."
"The good news is that not only do we want to find Orletes, the Abyss invaders must also want to, and so does Cicero who arrived earlier than us."
At this point, he turned to look at Tiralilin: "These people must have much more intelligence than we do. In the near future, they should take the initiative to find us."
As his fame continues to grow, it will definitely alert the invaders from the abyss.
Tiralilin gently reminded: "The Church of the Eternal Sun will come to us too."
Rosen smiled and said, "That's even better. It would be best if the person who comes to visit is a high-level plane guardian. In this way, we can find more information about Osterley from the guardian, or more information about the plane dimension."
Tilatrin was a little worried: "My dear, can you ensure victory?"
Rosen smiled and nodded: "Of course."
As he spoke, his gaze turned towards the large courtyard of the manor.
To be precise, it was on a pretty cleaning maid in the yard.
"I bet this maid is a follower of Talos, the Sage of Order, and she is planning to report this to Talos."
Tiralilin looked at the servant.
It was a maid in her early thirties, looking around furtively. After making sure that no one was paying attention, she walked towards the side door of the manor's backyard.
Soon, she found the manor steward and left the manor by sacrificing her chastity.
"There is indeed something fishy about this maid, but how can we be sure that she is Talos's person?"
Rosen thought for a moment and said, "Well, actually I'm not sure. It's just pure speculation."
"Let's wait and see."
As he said that, he turned and walked towards the door. After a few steps, his figure gradually faded and finally disappeared into the air. It was the second ring of invisibility.
"I'll set up a number of detection spells around the manor to prevent any surprise attacks."
To be more precise, it is a detection seal that works in conjunction with Lai Fu.
He used this trick to successfully escape from Dawn City with Selena.
I didn't expect that after becoming a 12-ring expert, I would still have to rely on this trick to ensure my safety.
"As expected, truly good magic will never go out of style."
