Just after returning from the sea, I heard that an outsider bought a large ship full of winter supplies and wanted to enter the Diana River to the Andres Mountains. As the chief of the coastal defense of Brion City, Vales led his team to rush over without changing his blood-stained armor; after all, even the powerful mercenary group dared to easily enter the Andres Mountains in this season, and those who wanted to do this were too suspicious.

After looking at the personnel on the ship, Vales's face relaxed a little, but he still asked sternly: "Humphreys, why? The last loss has made you unable to maintain the Flying Whale, and you have even disposed of the entire ship's cargo?"

"Haha, Lord Vales, look at what you said. After so many years, don't you understand us. My losses this time are indeed a bit big, but not as far as you imagined. As for my customers, you have seen them, and this young master is not ordinary generous." Humphreys said calmly. The relationship between the two sides is very good, but the recent pirate incident has made everyone feel bad. He can understand what Vales is worried about. Moreover, he thought Lu Chen and others were related to the pirates before, and it was not until the super high purchase price given by the other party that dispelled his doubts. After all, being a pirate is for money, and if you can be so luxurious, you don't have to be a pirate.

When he saw Humphreys, who was an old friend, gave him a reassuring look. When he saw that he was still a buyer of a little boy, Vales finally let go of his nervousness. One man and three women were dressed in mercenaries, the man with exquisite armor had obvious military characteristics, and the remaining woman acted like a nobleman. Her expression was a bit too charming. Maybe it was the lover of the little boy in front of him. In addition to what Humphreys called "generous", that is, the little boy should be the young master who ran out of a big family and came to the Andres Mountains to have adventures.

Thinking that before the weather warmed up, the Diana River was indeed safer than other times, Vales said to Lu Chen with a little kindness of dissuasion and doubt: "Okay, who will explain it to you? As far as I know, there is no object to trade in the Andres Mountains."

"It won't bother you. For a businessman, as long as there is a place where there is wise life, there will naturally be a tradeable object." Seeing that the other party regarded him as a playboy, Lu Chen simply pretended to be arrogant and replied, but he did not expect that he would backfire and make the other party disgusted.

"Haha, this sentence is really good. So what do you want to trade? Do you want to sell these winter goods to criminals and outlaws in the mountains while it is still early spring?" Brion is a relatively free city. The largest in the city is an earl with a loss of family. Vales, who was originally a merchant, couldn't stand such a family's children and asked mercilessly.

The other party's aggressive person looks a little bit angry, but there are many people around him. It just happened to be the opportunity to spread the news, so Lu Chen deliberately said, "Yes, unless there are other intelligent lives at the source of the Diana River."

"You~" Although he heard that the child in front of him was intentional, Vales was still angry. He was not sure of his identity and was not worthy of being angry with the spoiled noble child. He suddenly felt so suffocated that he didn't know how to continue. At this moment, a relatively older magician beside him whispered a few words, which made his gathered brows unfold again.

"Okay, just do that. Master Cazero is still thoughtful." Vales thanked quietly, then pretended to be arrogant and said to Lu Chen: "The Kingdom of Finecio is based on business, and the same is true for our city of Brion. The source of the Diana River is not within my jurisdiction, so I don't care who you want to trade with. However, in order to ensure that there will be no accidents in your jurisdiction, I will personally lead two warships to escort behind you, hoping that you can cooperate at that time; and, before you leave the port, I will send a small team to guard your "Flying Whale" day and night. You can make sure that you can prepare in the city with confidence, as long as you can recruit enough crew members to set sail."

The other party obviously regarded the Flying Whale as bait. As the former owner, Humphreys felt uneasy when he heard the old friend's words. However, after Lu Chen and others were slightly stunned, they had a strange expression on their faces that seemed to be amused and crying.

"Uh~Okay, Vales~ Sir, you can call me Lucien, thank you for what you did for us. Well, that's it. You've just come back. From tomorrow, in the morning three days later, no matter whether you have enough crew members are recruited or not, we will set off into the Diana River. No problem?" Lu Chen said gratefully. The other party's escort was just right. This would not only make it easier to recruit crew members, but also make the bandits along the way dare not attack the ship before they accumulate a certain amount of strength, which is conducive to solving most of the troubles at once; and once the number of bandits increases, their greed will increase exponentially, and then maybe they can solve the bandits along the Diana River once and for all.

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Vales's pride was gone, and instead he felt like he was automatically on the pirate ship. But looking at the two magicians around him who were willing to walk with him, and then looking at the other party's tender face, he nodded, and then left before he was embarrassed that he had nothing to say. In addition to the fact that he really needed to rest after the battle, after all, there was still a lot of follow-up work waiting for him to deal with.

"This, Lucien~ Master, you really shouldn't have had such a fight with Vales. He is actually a good person to talk to..." As soon as Vales left, Humphreys was a little worried about speaking for him, for fear that this little boy with obvious status would hold a grudge.

"It's okay, you don't have to say anything, no one will be wrong, and I'm glad that Bryon has someone like him. By the way, what is his position and title?" Lu Chen interrupted him and developed a little interest in Vales.

"this……"

"What's there to hesitate? If we want to do anything to him, we've done it a long time ago. Let's talk about it quickly. Maybe he will thank you in the future." Seeing Humphreys in a very embarrassing manner, Evelyn interjected.

He had long guessed about Lu Chen's identity. When he heard the beautiful woman who looked like a nobleman beside him say this, Humphreys could only honestly tell the position of the old friend Navy chief and the baron. Moreover, you can know these things by asking a little about the city, but then he was frightened by Evelyn's tone.

"Ah? He is a baron. If it weren't for hereditary system, it would be the same as the titles of sisters." Evelyn deliberately elongated her voice, and then she admired Humphreys's wonderful expression.
