I have a Synthesizer

#232 - Klein is a beast.

Qianhua was somewhat tempted by Tam's words, but Faci shook her head. As the team leader, Faci naturally had to step forward and respond.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Lord Tam, but before we reach Amadis, it's not convenient for us to eat your country's food. I think you can understand, right?

We don't ask for your hospitality, Lord Tam, we only ask that you let us pass through smoothly."

Tam nodded, looking regretful, and said:

"I understand. What Lady Faci said makes sense. It was inconsiderate of me. I'll arrange the passage immediately."

Faci smiled and nodded.

"Then we'll have to trouble you, Lord Tam."

Watching the escort team leave, Tam whispered to his subordinate:

"See? I told you to prepare the highest standard banquet, right? Preparation is necessary, after all, she's a princess, even from the Empire, we can't lose face.

But I knew they wouldn't eat it. If they don't eat it, the banquet will naturally be ours. Isn't it wonderful to get a free meal?

Hurry up and find the higher-ups for reimbursement, leave a little more for me. As for the rest, let the brothers divide it up quickly, lest the food gets cold."

The subordinate's eyes lit up, and he gave Tam a thumbs up.

"General is wise! Always thinking of the brothers."

......

The escort team smoothly entered Latis Fortress. After entering the fortress, Qianhua asked Faci with some confusion:

"Lady Faci, I'm so hungry. Since they've prepared the food, why don't we eat it? It's better than eating bread, right?"

"Your Highness, this Tam of Grandok, although he seems like an ordinary guy, he can't be as simple as he looks, being stationed on the border and entangled with Lord Olun for many years.

Beneath his honest appearance lies a cunning and treacherous heart. He once used a volcanic eruption trap to kill nearly ten thousand Tyrrel soldiers. He's not an ordinary person.

For safety, we can't eat any food from Grandok people until we reach Amadis City."

Although Qianhua was surprised that the seemingly honest Tam was so cunning, she was still somewhat unwilling.

"I still don't understand. We've already arrived in Grandok territory. If something happens, their public opinion will be particularly passive.

This doesn't fit Grandok's style. And now we're in a military fortress, so they shouldn't attack us at this time."

Faci raised her eyebrows slightly, not expecting Qianhua to think of this. It surprised her a little.

"Your Highness, what you said is just one possibility. Perhaps many people in Grandok care about public opinion or national customs, but there are also many who hate us Tyrrel people.

Perhaps there will be someone who disregards everything and wants to kill us at all costs. Therefore, restraint is also for our safety.

Perhaps you don't want to eat bread, but at least eating bread can ensure our safety. What do you say, Your Highness?"

"Alright, I'll listen to you."

Although Qianhua felt that the villains who disregarded everything that Faci spoke of might exist, she also felt that the reason for always emphasizing food safety was a bit far-fetched.

If danger really occurred, food would only be one possibility. Faci's management of her food was too strict.

......

The escort team, traveling through the fortress, soon arrived at the gate on the other side of the fortress. General Tam provided them with 6 camels and 10 carriages for the escort team to use as transportation.

Under Faci's leadership, the team left Latis Fortress without any hesitation.

Tam stood on the city wall, watching the convoy disappear into the distance, and began to eat the banquet prepared for Faci and the princess.

"I usually have to maintain my general image and share the hardships with the soldiers. How can I eat this kind of thing!"

The adjutant quickly poured Tam a glass of wine.

"What does the General mean by that?"

"After all, she's the Tyrrel princess. Even if the Empire officials don't act, some people will secretly have ideas. Sending people at this time is just sending them to be cannon fodder."

The adjutant nodded and quickly flattered him.

"General is wise! Oh, General, but there's one more thing to report to you. None of the 12 Scythe Teams we sent out have returned."

Tam's eyes widened!

"None of them returned? Did the Tyrrel people discover something? That's unlikely! Continue to send the Scythe Teams over to see what's going on."

"Yes!"

......

"So this is Grandok. It doesn't look much different from Tyrrel."

Klein lay comfortably in the carriage, rubbing bread in one hand and water in the other. As a logistics personnel, he was definitely assigned to a carriage with Eric.

"It's all one continent, what difference can there be?"

A doctor should act like a doctor. Eric took out a medical book and began to read it.

The princess and Faci were riding in camel-drawn carriages, while Klein and the others were riding in horse-drawn carriages. Although the stability and comfort were definitely not as good as camels, having something to sit on was better than nothing.

Because the road was relatively flat, the carriage speed was decent. When running, it was even faster than a train. Klein estimated that they would reach Amadis in about ten days.

The first day of the journey was relatively peaceful. By the evening, they had traveled nearly 100 kilometers.

"Stop, let's rest here today."

With Faci's order, the members of the escort team stopped one after another. The accompanying Security Department guards took some bread and water and distributed it to the 11 prisoners.

Becky also came over and asked Klein for bread and water to send to the princess and the others. Before she left, she dropped a sentence to Klein.

"Both worker bees have been arranged."

Klein nodded without showing any emotion, and handed over the princess's share.

Now that the worker bees on the princess's side had been arranged, he had a stable means of surveillance. He wasn't doing it to peep, but for intelligence.

......

At night, Lilith actually sneaked to Klein's side, making Klein a little embarrassed.

"So you were thinking about it too!"

Lilith raised an eyebrow, instantly understanding Klein's meaning.

"You, you're getting more and more glib, but I came to ask you to cook. You're thinking too much!"

Lilith threw a few magical beasts in front of Klein.

"I don't want to always eat jerky. Help me deal with these."

Klein looked at the corpses of these magical beasts, some of them were first-order and some were second-order. Some of the wounds still had blood on them, and it was obvious that they had just been killed.

"When did you catch them?"

"Just now! What's the problem?"

"Alright, no problem. I'm just lamenting your killing efficiency."

After Klein synthesized all the magical beast meat into dishes, the two of them ate heartily in the tent they had set up.

In fact, not only Lilith would hunt wild game, but other guild members, and even some Security Department personnel, would also hunt some magical beasts.

After all, this was the wilderness. The wilderness of Grandok was the same as Tyrrel, with scattered magical beasts appearing.

Synthesized dishes were much tastier than bread. As Klein ate, he asked Lilith:

"I heard Joe say that your mission is assassination. What do you think of this mission?"

Lilith quickly tore and chewed the meat in her hand, taking advantage of the space to say:

"Do you think it's possible that your father, Esmond, wants us to kill the princess?"

Klein's eyes narrowed.

"I feel like the price is too high. He shouldn't be willing, right?"

"Who can guess what your father is thinking?"

Klein nodded, looking closely at Lilith's green hair. Klein inexplicably moved closer.

Lilith also felt Klein's approach, but she didn't speak, just focused on eating.

"Aren't you afraid of being seen sneaking over here like this?" Klein asked.

Lilith raised an eyebrow. Were you questioning her ability to shadow-walk? She said very confidently:

"With Shadow Three not here, who can see me?"

Okay, you're awesome, but usually setting up flags like this gets you slapped in the face.

"Can't Gwen detect you either? She's still very strong."

"I'm not too sure about Gwen. I haven't had much contact with her."

Lilith said truthfully.

"Alright, since you're so confident, I can't show weakness."

"What do you mean? What do you want to do?"

Klein quickly finished eating the meat, and began to set up a silence barrier and a protection barrier for the tent.

Lilith's face turned red, and she was about to go out when Klein grabbed her back.

"That bastard."

......

On the other side, Eric was about to return to his and Klein's tent to rest.

The medical problems of a 60-person team, once in an environment like the suburbs, his work immediately became busy.

Just now he had bandaged the wounds of two Security Department guards who were injured in a battle with magical beasts. Although he wasn't exhausted, he was indeed a little annoyed.

When he returned to the tent, he immediately felt that something was wrong. Why was their tent moving?

When he tried to open the tent door, a defensive barrier immediately appeared, and a wisp of flame burned his fingers, with great power.

"This kind of powerful flame, shadow, double defensive barrier? And a TM silence barrier?"

Eric looked at the tent in front of him, and then at his hand, and suddenly seemed to understand something. His face fell.

"Klein is really an animal! The sated don't know the hunger of the starving! And doing this in front of me!"

Just like that, homeless Eric could only sit at the door, keeping watch for Klein and Lilith, until two hours later, when Klein and Lilith came out.
