In fact, during this period of time, Feng Chou used his usual way of going to the pub to inquire about several old mercenaries who were lucky enough to survive the failed operation organized by the Church of Nobles and Knights to eliminate the evil spirit.
He spent a sum of money to inquire about some details of that operation, especially the details about the evil spirit.
These details allowed Feng Chou to judge how terrible this evil spirit was.
According to the inference of Feng Chou and Qiankun Pagoda, this evil spirit should be above the high level, but not at the legendary level.
With this inference, Feng Chou began to seriously consider the reward mission of the Reincarnation Mirror.
This mission was quite tempting for Feng Chou.
According to the hint of the Reincarnation Mirror, he had to collect 50 merit points in ten years to avoid the fate of being erased. The last time he got 16 merit points in the Arcane Tower was completely lucky. Feng Chou had 12 merit points left after deducting 5 points for the first five-year mission. In other words, in the next seven years, he needed to get another 38 merit points.
Seven years didn't seem short, but for Feng Chou, it was completely not enough. For example, this time to master all the beginner spell knowledge, even if he had raised his intelligence to 30 points, it still took him more than two years. In the future, if he casually accelerated the time in the tower, it would take him several years. More than seven years was simply not enough.
After trying to learn some intermediate spell knowledge, Feng Chou found that even with his current intelligence of 30 points, it would take him at least ten years to learn all the intermediate spells!
It was completely not enough time.
Therefore, for the current Feng Chou, every merit point was worth the risk, not to mention 10 merit points.
With these 10 merit points, he could raise his intelligence by 5 points and increase his learning efficiency, which was equivalent to increasing his own time.
Of course, Feng Chou dared to think about this mission mainly because of Qiankun Pagoda.
Qiankun Pagoda's performance in the Arcane Tower gave Feng Chou a great deal of confidence. Since Qiankun Pagoda could even deal with a legendary golem, it shouldn't be a problem for him to deal with an evil spirit below the legendary level, right?
Since he had to eliminate the evil spirit in Chapman Castle, it was definitely a profitable business to get his hands on the viscount's territory. As long as he thought about how Qiankun Pagoda needed 500,000 crowns to level up as an apprentice, Feng Chou wouldn't complain about having too much money in his hands.
However, the more difficult thing was that real estate in Casablanca was quite in short supply, and there was no supply. It would be more troublesome to buy a suitable real estate to buy to do so.
Thinking of this, Feng Chou suddenly remembered that he still had two commercial buildings in Adonis. Any one of them met Chapman's requirements.
He shared his thoughts with Chapman.
"Adonis?
I've heard of this city. It just so happens that I don't want to stay in Casablanca any longer. Can the commercial building you mentioned really bring me 20,000 crowns of annual income? "Chapman asked.
Chapman's father's magic experiments had not only killed all the civilians in Chapman Town, but also many of the lower nobles who were attached to his family. These lower nobles were originally the foundation of the Chapman family, but now they had become enemies. Leaving Casablanca and starting a new life in another city was undoubtedly a wise choice for Chapman.
Feng Chou said, "This commercial building is located in the bustling area of Adonis. I've entrusted it to a commercial company with an annual income of 20,000 crowns. I have a fair contract from the court as proof. As long as you agree to this deal, I can first transfer this real estate to you as a show of sincerity. Then, you can sign the resale agreement of Chapman Castle with me."
Chapman was silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed and said, "As you wish, my Baron."
Feng Chou smiled and said, "Since you've agreed, then to show my sincerity, I'll provide you with free treatment."
After that, he opened his handbag, took out a scroll of "Cure Disease" from it, and unfurled it in front of Chapman.
After the light of the divine spell faded, Chapman's complexion immediately improved. He stroked his chest, took a deep breath, and sighed, "It's been a long time since I've breathed so smoothly. Thank you very much, Mr. Baron."
Feng Chou smiled and said, "Don't worry about it. Soon, you won't have to worry about the cost of the scroll."
"Will you leave with me now, or …"
Chapman said, "When hope appears in front of me, sir, I can't stay here any longer. But I have to wait for my son to come back. He works in a leather workshop in the south."
Feng Chou said, "It's okay. I can wait."
Chapman shouted at the door, "Rebecca, come in."
The girl who had just left came in. She was surprised to see Chapman, who seemed to have recovered.
Chapman said, "Rebecca, my daughter." He introduced her to Feng Chou.
After that, he said to Rebecca, "I have good news for you, my daughter. This Baron Amborite will change our fate. He will take us out of the slums and give me a decent job. This noble and generous Baron cured my disease with a scroll of divine spells for free. Now, I'm healthy."
Rebecca covered her mouth in disbelief.
Chapman said again, "Go, find someone to go to the leather workshop where Nelson works. Tell them that I'm dying. I think, maybe that stingy workshop owner will let your brother come back. Let's leave here and find a suffocating place."
Rebecca ran out in a panic.
Only Feng Chou and Chapman were left in the room. Chapman looked around, sighed, and said, "I won't invite you to sit …"
Feng Chou looked at the stool full of junk and the bedsheet that was no longer the original color. He smiled and said nothing.
After a while, Rebecca came back and said to Chapman, "I've asked Harvey to go and tell him what you said."
Chapman nodded.
About half an hour later, a young man in dirty work clothes with a sour smell rushed into the room, shouting, "Father!
… "
When he saw the scene in the room, he was stunned. Mr. Chapman, who was originally lying on the bed, was standing there, looking at him with a smile.
The young man said in disbelief, "Oh!
God!
Father, what happened? "
Chapman looked at his son in a sorry state and said with slight excitement, "Our Lord didn't forget us. He only sent us our savior …"
At this point, he pointed to Feng Chou and said, "This is Baron Amborite. He will help us leave here and provide me with a decent job. From today onwards, you don't have to go to the leather workshop to suffer anymore. Son, we're saved."
The young man's gaze moved back and forth between his father and Feng Chou's faces in bewilderment.
In order to persuade his son, Chapman opened his arms and said, "Look, son, Baron has treated me for free. I'm healthy."
"Son, don't doubt it. What else do we have to lose?
Come on!
Let's leave here first. When we're out of here, I'll explain everything to you. "
"Let's go, let's go. Don't take anything. The things here are not worth ten crowns."
Despite Chapman's words, the two young men still insisted on packing some valuables.
