Chapter 15: The Bauhinia Bauhinia Adventure Squad In Embarrassment
Several hours later.
Jessica successfully broke through the fourth level bottleneck with the help of the spiritual growth potion, becoming an intermediate magician.
To celebrate this happy occasion, Rennes specially held a banquet.
It was quite lively.
Night.
The lights were on at the Habs Manor.
Everyone gathered in the garden for a unique bonfire dinner.
Since it was a family feast, not a noble banquet, there weren't so many rules and restrictions.
The family sat by the bonfire, eating delicious food and chatting and laughing.
The children were having a great time.
After eating their fill, they ran to the side to play a game of horseback riding and fighting.
The scene was very lively.
It has to be said.
Under Rennes' "efforts," the Habs family has become more prosperous.
Looking at the children playing and frolicking around, Rennes felt a great sense of accomplishment.
In order to further prosper the family, Rennes decided to continue his efforts this year.
...
Habs Manor.
Study.
Rennes sat in a chair and checked the beer sales for this month.
After years of development, the beer he "invented" has become the most popular alcoholic beverage among the free people in the Rhine region.
The efficiency of making money has increased several times compared to before.
If it weren't for the need to deal with more and more local bosses as the beer sales area expands, the profit could be multiplied several times.
However.
The days at the brewery have not been so good recently.
Because of the ongoing border war, King Lance recently ordered an increase in taxes.
Now the burden on the lower-class people in the Rhine region is very heavy.
There are fewer and fewer free people buying beer.
Last month, beer sales plummeted dramatically, with profits dropping by 25% compared to the previous period.
If the situation doesn't improve, next month's beer sales will definitely be even more bleak.
Just when Rennes was troubled about how to improve beer sales, his mother Evelyn came in with a happy face.
"Rennes, Janice is pregnant again."
"Janice's infertility problem has been resolved?"
Rennes was filled with surprise.
As his first wife, he had a deep emotional connection with Janice.
After giving birth to a Silver-ranked heir last time, Janice had complications and temporarily lost her fertility.
She had been recuperating for the past few years, but there had been no progress.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly recovered now.
This was really good news!
"Not only Janice, but Jessica, Leila, and Murphy are also pregnant."
Evelyn was full of joy.
What she wanted most now was to see the Habsburg family expand.
With all four daughters-in-law pregnant at once, one can imagine how excited she was.
"That's great!"
Upon hearing this, Rennes' mood was instantly filled with joy.
For him, the more children, the better.
Not only could he receive system rewards, but it would also strengthen the family.
Upon receiving this good news, Rennes no longer worried about beer sales and left the study with a joyful heart.
He wanted to accompany his women.
On the other side,
The news of the four wives being pregnant again spread throughout the Eagle Village.
"One shot, four hits! Baron Rennes is truly amazing!"
"If I remember correctly, Baron Rennes already has thirteen children! With these four, that makes seventeen."
"Tsk tsk, to have so many children in less than ten years! This reproductive ability is truly enviable!"
...
The villagers were discussing with each other.
Some even speculated secretly that Rennes had received the blessing of the god of love, which was why he had such a powerful "ability".
Rennes paid no attention to these remarks.
After all,
For a man, having a strong reproductive ability was never something to be ashamed of.
Only those who couldn't perform were ashamed.
...
In the blink of an eye,
Another half month had passed.
On this day,
In the afternoon,
The adventure team of the lilac flower, who had gone to the Warcraft Forest to complete a reconnaissance mission, returned.
However,
The situation of the few people seemed to be not so good.
They were covered in dust and looked very disheveled.
They also had injuries on their bodies.
Especially the female hunter, Lifa, who had the most severe injuries.
She couldn't even walk properly.
She needed someone to support her.
"Felina, what happened to your injuries? Are you alright?"
Seeing this, Rennes frowned and asked with concern.
"When we were deep in the Warcraft Mountains on our mission, we unexpectedly encountered a 9th-level Earth Rage Bear attack."
"Lifa used her skills beyond her level to summon a pack of ghost wolves in order to buy us time to escape."
"Not only did she completely exhaust her Qi Essence, but she was also pierced through some of her meridians by the Earth Rage Bear's Earth Spike Technique..."
Taking a deep breath, Felina replied with a low mood.
The losses from this mission were really significant.
Not only was the mission not completed, but it also resulted in one of their sisters suffering from severe injuries that were difficult to heal.
"Exhaustion of Qi Essence? Pierced meridians?"
Upon hearing this, Rennes took a sharp breath.
This was not a minor injury.
Complete exhaustion of Qi Essence would lead to a significant reduction in the capacity of Qi in the body.
Unless there is some kind of opportunity,
Otherwise, it will be difficult to make significant progress in cultivation in the future.
Not to mention the connection of the meridians.
The meridians are the bridges that connect the heart and the aorta that supplies blood to the heart.
If the damaged connection of the meridians cannot be restored, Lifa may have difficulty even with intense exercise in the future.
Thinking of this,
Rennes looked at Lifa with a hint of pity.
"If there's anything you need help with, just let me know."
Rennes spoke up.
"Mhmm!"
Upon hearing this, Fuleina felt warm inside.
Her feelings of frustration were also dispelled to some extent.
After a brief chat,
Fuleina and the others did not stay for long.
After tending to Lifa's injuries, they hurriedly left.
There's no other way.
Lifa's injuries are too severe.
Eagle Village simply doesn't have the conditions for treatment.
They must quickly send her to the county city and find a bishop from the Church of Life to help her recover.
Before leaving,
Rennes specially 'borrowed' ten thousand gold coins for Fuleina and the others.
After all,
To ask a bishop-level priest from the Church of Life for help, it definitely requires a large amount of money.
Watching Fuleina and the others go far away,
Rennes couldn't help but sigh.
Having been friends for so many years, suddenly encountering such a situation,
He also felt a sense of sorrow.
"In this world where monsters roam and gods manifest, one must have sufficient strength to prevent such things from happening to oneself and those around them."
Thinking of this, Rennes decided to accelerate the process of having his own child.
