Chapter 797: Special Effects! She Added Special Effects!
The name of Viscount Adams' territory was Lake Bay Town.
Looking at the name, you can tell the town was located next to a massive lake.
This place was not only the center of the entire North John County, but also played an important role in dredging the north, south, east, and west.
So whether it was land routes or water routes, commerce was also very developed.
Because Lan Qingyou and Elisa were heading south from the north this time, they took the land route.
It was fine at the beginning.
But as they went on, merchant caravans dragging goods and fully armed mercenaries started to increase.
Not only that, when Lan Qingyou looked out from time to time, she could occasionally see soldiers standing on sentry posts looking out.
This sense of security immediately rose up.
And as the carriage entered the town, the people they saw increased even more.
"Commerce is very developed."
"The transportation network is also not bad."
"Along the way outside, there were quite a lot of those towering sentry posts, giving off a bit of a beacon tower vibe."
"Just now I even saw quite a few soldiers standing on the city walls."
"The borders are generally like this right."
"Looking at the situation with the old village chief, you can tell this empire and the neighboring countries should be in a state of tension."
"Who cares, whatever they do is none of our business."
"That's true, as long as the soul is repaired, that's fine. Other matters have nothing to do with us."
Sitting in the carriage, Lan Qingyou and Elisa chatted casually.
Previously, Elisa indeed didn't really like being in the carriage.
But during one return, after seeing Lan Qingyou's floating movements as if in a space capsule, she immediately asked the other party to do the same for her.
This way, she was finally able to sit steadily in the carriage.
Whoa—
Along with the horse's cry, the carriage finally stopped.
"The two of you, we have arrived at our destination."
The carriage door was opened by the coachman, and what Lan Qingyou and Elisa saw was Adams respectfully bowing and saluting.
"Isn't this Lord Viscount?"
"Who is Lord Viscount saluting to?"
"It should be some important guest."
"What guest? Last time I saw the president of the Aorl Merchant Guild come, Lord Viscount didn't even do this."
"Who knows, anyway it must be very important, otherwise it wouldn't be this grand."
"Speaking of which, I saw Lord Viscount riding his horse out early this morning."
"I saw it too, he seemed to be in quite a hurry."
"And after that came the Viscount's carriage right. Thinking about it this way, doesn't it all connect together."
"Indeed, this is clearly the rhythm of going out to receive a very important guest."
As soon as the door opened, various sounds of discussion rushed at their faces.
Both Lan Qingyou and Elisa sitting in the carriage heard it.
Adams outside the carriage naturally heard it too.
It was just that the other party didn't care.
Even his soldiers didn't care.
It looked like the local customs were open and people could speak freely.
But come to think of it, places with developed commerce are generally like this.
Of course, this was what could be seen on the surface, no one knew what it was like behind the scenes.
After all, neither Lan Qingyou nor Elisa were 'inexperienced' little girls like Adams had imagined.
They were still very clear on this bit of logic.
It's even very possible that these guys were extras hired by Adams.
Anyway, predicting others with the worst-case scenario is always right.
After all, the human heart is hidden behind the belly.
This way they could better protect themselves.
But regardless of whether these people were extras, the two still had to do what they had to do.
Didn't they say important guests?
Then what are we waiting for?
Let's act!
Thus...
After Lan Qingyou glanced at Elisa, she took the lead and floated out of the carriage.
"Whoa—"
"Flying... a person is flying!!!"
When seeing Lan Qingyou in all black flying out just like that without the help of any tools, the onlookers immediately let out a collective exclamation of awe.
Seeing this situation, Lan Qingyou knew this small action of hers had already achieved the desired effect.
But this was not enough.
Since it was an act.
To give people face, naturally the more of this kind of effect the better.
Thus Lan Qingyou, who loves to show off, just floated in the air and waved slightly at the crowd.
This drew another round of cheers and gasps.
During this kind of fun-seeking moment, Lan Qingyou's homebody attributes disappeared entirely.
It had to be said, fun was indeed the ladder of human progress.
"Tsk... how am I supposed to go out with you like this?"
Looking at Lan Qingyou getting carried away outside, and hearing the continuous exclamations, Elisa secretly clicked her tongue.
Although she knew Lan Qingyou was acting, giving face to this guide Adams.
And at the same time it was for her own amusement and fun.
But Elisa actually didn't want to act anything.
After all, she wasn't some fun-seeker.
But the problem was right now Lan Qingyou was showing off outside, so even if she didn't want to, she still had to do it.
Otherwise, wouldn't that just be directly admitting defeat?
Damned competitive spirit.
Thus...
Elisa took out an alchemical prop she made herself and started 'dressing up' herself.
Just a dozen seconds later, Elisa stepped out of the carriage with her head held high and chest puffed out.
"Whoa—"
When people saw Elisa, another burst of exclamations erupted.
And this burst of exclamations was even louder than the one for Lan Qingyou.
Heh!
Upon hearing this, the corners of Elisa's mouth couldn't be suppressed, and she took the opportunity to look at Lan Qingyou who was still floating in the air.
That look was full of provocation.
Tsk... lost.
Lan Qingyou smacked her lips.
No helping it, this is the advantage of going second.
After understanding the previous person's tricks, one can carry out a deeper 'modification' on oneself.
It's just that she didn't expect Elisa could actually modify herself into this appearance.
At this moment, Elisa was like a walking light source.
Not only did she have an effect of twinkling sequins shimmering on her body, but behind her was also a small sea of flowers.
With every step she took, the sea of flowers would 'drop' some petals behind her.
It was just that the petals would disappear when they were about to fall to the ground.
Special effects!
She actually added special effects!
To achieve the extreme, this guy even sprayed some floral-scented perfume.
Creating a dual impact on both vision and smell!
How to put it...
Lan Qingyou suddenly felt she didn't lose unjustly.
After all... no one expected this usually cold and indifferent guy would actually go to this extent.
"So showy..."
When both of them arrived beside Adams, Lan Qingyou sighed in a low voice.
But Elisa didn't care at all.
"Isn't this the effect you wanted?"
"Hehe, thank you both for your kindness."
Although he didn't know why the two would go to this extent.
But it had to be said, this wave caused Adams' reputation in the town to rise a small notch again.
Although his reputation was already not bad.
But who would care about having more reputation?
Some merchant guild members present today would definitely spread this matter after leaving Lake Bay Town.
And to be convincing, they would definitely praise it heavily.
When the time comes and the two become famous, him as the accompanying host will also definitely be mentioned.
This was what he needed now.
And also what the John family needed.
"Please come inside, both of you..."
Thinking this way, Adams, whose steps were a bit light, reached out and pointed to the Viscount's mansion on one side of the carriage.
