Chapter 2 Mysterious Place
Chapter 2 Mysterious Place
"Damn Echidna, greed is the original sin. Even if you are a servant of God, you will be expelled from the kingdom of God after death."
After walking out of the church, Karl cursed in a low voice. When he saw someone coming over, he lowered his head and said:
"Merciful Lord of the Dawn..."
The Lord of Dawn is kind to his believers, so Father Vic gives Carl time to show his "piety".
Thirty gold coins!
This is not a small number.
The Bergmann family had no talent for financial management.
in contrast,
Each of them is very good at squandering.
My grandfather was a baron, and in order to maintain his wealthy life during his lifetime, he even sold his territory.
His father brought Carl to Signo City for many years, but he was unable to keep a property and had been renting a house in a less prosperous neighborhood.
In order to get a decent job as an inspector, he almost drained all his savings.
"Ugh!"
Sighing, Carl did not choose to take a carriage, but walked to the bustling streets of Rouen.
This is the largest champagne market in the city and also the largest commodity distribution center for several nearby marquisates.
September,
Fertilizer Moon.
If the host was generous, even the serfs would have some spare money, and the market would be bustling.
When there are too many people, it will naturally not be clean.
The streets were filled with dirty water and dirt, various smells mixed together, and shouting sounds continued.
"Seafood from the Gulf of Puglia, all kinds of sea fish..."
“Flower cakes are served with soft bread spread with cheese, six pence a portion, and are a favorite of the elderly and children.”
“Fresh vegetables and fruits, cheap and affordable.”
“Bordeaux wine is indispensable for noble banquets. You will never forget it after drinking it.”
……
Carl carefully avoided the crowd, glanced around vigilantly, and held his pockets tightly along the way.
There is no shortage of thieves here.
Especially someone like him, who is well-dressed but has no entourage, is the best target for those people.
It wasn't until he came to a familiar shop that he relaxed his guard a little.
"Udyr, your father is not here?"
"He went to get some stock."
Udyr is a young man of about fifteen or sixteen years old, with dark skin and a bit shy when he speaks.
"Give me a bucket of milk." Carl pointed with his finger, thought for a moment and said:
“The cheapest one.”
"Ok?"
Udyr was stunned for a moment, then said:
"Mr. Karl, you can't drink this kind of milk. Well... Of course, some people drink it."
When conditions are difficult, even sewage can be swallowed, and of course low-quality milk can be drunk.
But this kind of milk is obviously not suitable for the status of the guest in front of him.
"I know."
Carl smiled:
"And bring me ten pounds of marinated meat strips, the cheapest kind, too."
"This..." Udyr shrugged:
"Ok."
"Two crowns and three pence."
The crown was called a silver coin decades ago, but it was not made of pure silver.
One crown is equivalent to twelve pence.
One pound equals ten crowns.
The pound is also known as the gold pound, which is mixed with a certain proportion of gold.
This is the currency that people commonly use for transactions. There is also a less commonly used currency above the pound.
gold!
The currency is made of pure gold and has the portrait of the first king of the Gondor Kingdom on it. In addition to being used to purchase supplies, it is also of great collection value.
One gold coin was equivalent to ten pounds.
Inspector Carl's salary is settled every half month, and he can earn more than 20 pounds a month.
That is just a little more than two gold coins.
In that case, thirty gold coins doesn't seem like a lot.
But he still needs to spend. In the past, Karl had no habit of saving, and his monthly income was often not enough to cover his expenses, so he needed help from his father from time to time.
Currently, all the savings he has on hand are just over one gold coin, and thirty gold coins are undoubtedly a huge sum of money for him.
…………
We had a quick bite to fill our stomachs on the way, and when we got back to our residence, Mrs. Mary had already gone out to work. She was a long-term employee in a bakery.
Jenny is practicing her voice.
Her voice is very special, like the call of a lark outside the window, a rare gift.
If Jenny passes the test of the Barrow Singing Group in a while, her future will be different.
Singer,
In this era when there are no schools and common people cannot receive education, it is possible to cross classes.
For this reason, Mrs. Mary asked Jenny to stop everything she was doing and concentrate on practicing singing at home.
Karl listened attentively for a moment, using the music to ease his irritable mood, then slowed down and returned to his room.
"Thirty gold coins!"
Putting down the milk and bacon, he pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and took down the sword hanging on the wall.
This is a knight's broadsword.
It can be wielded alone or with both hands.
The broad sword blade flashed with a cold light, and it was swung with great force. It was obviously not just a decoration.
The weight of nearly three kilograms may seem ordinary, but it is actually not easy to swing for a long time.
Generally speaking, only knight squires who have undergone rigorous training have this power.
"drink!"
Carl growled, held the sword with both hands and slashed forward suddenly, and the blade stopped steadily when it was one foot off the ground.
Vertical chop!
Simple moves, but able to show his solid basic skills.
The Bergman family rose to prominence through military exploits, and the Fierce Wind Swordsmanship passed down from generation to generation is a knight-level swordsmanship with extraordinary power.
unfortunately,
My grandfather was illiterate, and although he became a baron, he did not obtain the breathing method that could activate the seed of life and evolve the body. Otherwise, Carl would have been a knight's squire long ago.
Maybe,
There is still a chance to become a knight!
In this world, knights have power and status far beyond that of ordinary people.
After putting on the soft armor and practicing swordsmanship for a while, Carl stopped when beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, his face turning fierce:
"If I'm pushed to the limit, I can do anything."
As he said this, he lay down on the bed with his eyes closed, holding the broadsword in his arms, carrying some milk and pickled meat.
If he was pushed into a corner, he probably wouldn't do anything like robbing people on the road, but if he wanted to get thirty gold coins in a short period of time, he didn't necessarily have to become a bandit.
still alright……
cross!
With a faint halo flashing by, Carl opened his eyes again and found himself in a wonderful place.
Endless stars are suspended around him, and beneath him is a mysterious stone chair carved with ancient patterns.
The broadsword was still in his arms, and the milk and bacon were still in his hands.
But the environment,
But it changed suddenly!
It feels like arriving in the outer space, or like being on the throne of a god, overlooking the endless stars.
Not only did the environment change, but the moment he appeared here, the uneasiness, worry, and excitement in his heart were all suppressed by absolute rationality.
At this moment, Karl's expression was solemn and indifferent, his brown eyes were calm, and every thought was under control.
this moment.
He is like 'God'!
"Shh!"
The broadsword swung out again.
The same vertical chop, but this time it was obviously more stable, and the strength, speed and accuracy had already reached the level of a knight's squire.
'really……'
'After coming here, I have absolute rationality, and even the ability to control my body has been improved to a certain extent.'
'What on earth is this place?'
After a brief hesitation, Carl, who had not gotten an answer, took a step forward. As he took a step forward, the scene in front of him changed again.
cross!
That's right.
Carl is not only a time traveler, but he can also use the mysterious place to come to another world.
