Chapter 796: Departure

"Right, recipes."

Lan Qingyou nodded.

Although the so-called remuneration given by the noble sounded like it was very good.

But to the two of them, knowledge was the most important, precious, and value-retaining 'remuneration'.

But these words, when heard by Adams, took on a different meaning.

Adams had originally felt these two had just come out of their homes.

Now after hearing the other party say they only wanted books, it further confirmed his guess.

Think about it.

How could two people who were inexperienced in worldly affairs and knew nothing about the outside world obtain information about the outside world the fastest?

Although she looked like someone who even wanted recipes.

But don't underestimate recipes.

Many cultures are deeply bound with the local cuisine.

You could even say that a place without fine food basically equals having no cultural heritage.

Smart!

Adams couldn't help but applaud Lan Qingyou's decision.

No wonder she could become a competent Alchemist from an apprentice Alchemist at such a young age.

Just this brain alone was absolutely qualified.

"Since it's settled, then let's hit the road. At this speed, we can reach the town by evening."

Without further delay.

After finishing lunch, Adams stood up and said to the two.

"Alright, then let's go."

"Village Chief, thank you for your hospitality."

Although they didn't really eat anything good, the old village chief had at least bustled about and helped them find a 'guide'.

No matter how you look at it, it was hard work.

So before leaving, Lan Qingyou and Elisa still greeted the other party.

"Hehe, you're too polite, it's nothing."

Seeing them actually greet him, the old village chief's old face broke into a wide smile.

Of course.

While smiling, the old village chief also cast his gaze towards Lord Viscount who had also stood up and prepared to leave.

Adams naturally knew what the other party meant, so he nodded slightly.

With this action of his, the old village chief's hanging heart finally settled.

Although he didn't know why the other party would find a guide for the two to leave town and go to the Imperial Capital.

But this already had nothing to do with him.

Because the Viscount had already nodded, so no matter how it was handled over there, he had already gotten what he wanted.

The two's actions were naturally seen by Lan Qingyou and Elisa.

But it didn't matter.

Just a small matter.

It would be better to say they got a much bigger advantage.

Fernweed Village got a tilt in resources, the Viscount got the opportunity to build a relationship with them, and they got a guide to the Imperial Capital not to mention many books.

It could be said everyone had a bright future.

What was this?

A triple win!

An absolute win, alright!

Smiling, Elisa led the way, with Lan Qingyou floating behind as they exited the banquet hall.

Only after the two walked out did they realize that at some unknown time, a carriage with a family crest carved on the door had already parked here.

"This is..."

Lan Qingyou looked in confusion at Viscount Adams following closely behind.

"A carriage."

"I know it's a carriage."

"Haha, this is a carriage for the two of you to rest in. Although flying is indeed very important, there's always a time when you get tired."

Adams smiled and nodded.

Actually, he had ordered the carriage when he left the town.

It was just that because he was in a hurry to meet them, he went one step ahead.

The carriage left the city after being prepared later, and arrived at Fernweed Village around lunch time.

Although it was undeniable that the flying of both of them was very interesting, especially that guy with the strange name whose feet never left the ground.

But having a carriage prepared was always better than not having one prepared.

This wasn't a question of whether they used it or not.

It was a question of whether there was one or not.

To put it simply, it was to make a big show of it, so that the two could see that Adams was putting in effort.

After all, it was to build a relationship and form a good tie.

This kind of thing was inconspicuous, but it would absolutely leave an impression on the other party.

"Then... should we sit?"

Lan Qingyou had never ridden a carriage either.

So after asking a sentence, without waiting for Elisa to answer, she squeezed into the carriage door opened by the coachman.

Seeing this, Elisa sighed and also went up.

"Quite luxurious."

The moment she entered, Lan Qingyou scanned everything inside the carriage.

Facing sofas, with a small wooden cabinet painted white on one side.

Inside the wooden cabinet were drinks and some small snacks.

It looked like they should be local specialties and the like.

Lan Qingyou wasn't polite either.

Directly got her hands on them.

Although Lan Qingyou didn't drink much and wasn't a person addicted to alcohol.

But since she was already here anyway, how could she not taste the fine wine and specialties of this world?

And Adams over here, seeing that both had boarded the carriage, finally felt relieved.

Waving his hand, he rode his horse and had the carriage follow.

Although this carriage was exclusively for nobles, or perhaps for the Viscount's own use.

But traveling on an uneven stone road, and without suspension, Elisa was still shaken until dizzy.

"I can't take it, I'm going out for a spin."

Elisa had ridden carriages before.

Actually, back on Blue Star, the Aureolus family was originally a millennial noble family.

So it wasn't that her family didn't have transportation tools like carriages.

It was just that in her generation, carriages were more of a status symbol.

For example, they were only occasionally used when attending the banquet of some Duke or royal family.

Normally they drove luxury cars.

So under this situation, she couldn't hold on for long.

So she opened the carriage door, threw out the Flying Carpet, and flew into the air.

Adams, leading the way on horseback in front, sensed movement behind him and turned his head to look, only to happen to see Elisa's flight movement of circling the field once.

Whoa!!

Is this a flying tool?

To think it was actually directly sitting on a carpet!

Or rather, making a carpet into a flying tool?

Although he had heard about the flying tools from the reporting villager previously, and knew one was a broom and the other was a carpet.

But knowing was one thing, actually seeing it was another.

A genius idea.

As expected, whether it was Miss Lan or Miss Elisa, both were very outstanding Alchemists.

Of course, this could also very likely have been made by the teacher who taught them alchemy.

But this kind of thing was fine either way.

After all, to Adams, the more outstanding the talent the two displayed, the thicker the chips in his hands would be.

And Lan Qingyou over here.

Curled her lips after seeing Elisa fly out.

This guy, sure enough, has some problems.

Lan Qingyou, whose body weight was directly reduced to zero due to her talent, sat on the plush sofa cushion and would be jolted up from time to time.

But she personally rather enjoyed it.

During the journey of over three hours, apart from occasionally going out for fresh air.

The rest of the time was basically spent inside the carriage.

Having wine and meat, she was very happy.

Three hours later.

As the outline of the city walls ahead became clearer and clearer, the town was finally right before their eyes...
