Chapter 355 Harold's House
Sora narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest, "You're drooling, Paimon."
Paimon quickly wiped the corner of his mouth: "Well, I really want to taste it, hehe."
Sora: “I bought it.”
Obtained 1 piece of nectar powder
[Pianpian Nectar Powder (cooking ingredient): A condiment developed by Harold, a famous scholar in Xumi. It is much more nutritious than sugar. The people of Xumi like to use it to make bread.

Shopkeeper: "This customer has good taste! Look at this, the pollen of the lily of the valley. It is said to be a byproduct of Harold's research on the cultivation of lily of the valley.
Although he himself denied it, we all feel that he is the only one in the whole Xumi who has such ability!
This is amazing. In addition to strengthening your body, taking it can also--"
"That's not necessary." Sora interrupted.
"Traveler, just listen to him! This looks shiny and delicious!" Paimon stared at the glass bottle and said anxiously.
“Hey, kid, you can’t eat this.” The shopkeeper reached out and covered the vial containing the pollen of the lily of the valley.
"Why?" Paimon was puzzled.
"Shopkeeper, we are actually here to inquire about Harold's address." Sora said.
Shopkeeper: "Where does Harold live? It's easy to find. He lives near the Church of the Lord, together with the current secretary Elhaisen and the 'Light of the Mysterious Theory' Kavi.
But some people heard that he moved to another place now... I'm not sure, I haven't been there."
Paimon: "Okay, thank you, we'll ask someone else."
The two left the grocery store and stopped a patrolling mercenary.
Paimon: "Hello, do you know where Harold lives?"
"Harold?! Is that Harold?" The dark-skinned mercenary was very excited. "Could it be that you know the God of War Amyrito?!"
"Why did he suddenly say something I couldn't understand?" Paimon lowered his voice and said to Sora.
null:
【1. “It’s Harold, the initiator of the ‘bike-sharing’ project.”
2. "It's that deceiving flower devil Harold."】
The mercenary said in surprise: "Yes, it's that Harold! But we prefer to call him the God of War Amiritto!
You outsiders may not know that before Harold obtained the Eye of God, he defeated a mercenary group on his own.
A few months ago, he went to the desert and wiped out the notorious "Relic of the God-King" in one fell swoop. Now, our merchants and mercenaries admire him very much.
You two foreigners actually know Harold? Are you his friends? ! "
"What? He can actually beat the mercenaries?! Isn't he a scholar of the Order?"
Paimon opened his mouth wide, then muttered softly: "...Is it a scholar who is two meters tall and covered with muscles? Hmm...It seems a bit hard to imagine..."
Kong shook his head helplessly: "We were just asked by someone to find out some things from him."
The expression of the mercenary in front of him became visibly disappointed: "Is that so? I was also hoping to ask you to introduce me to someone so that I could have a chance to join their caravan..."
Sora: "If I see him, I'll try to talk to him."
"Really?!" The mercenary's eyes flashed with joy. "He lives next to the Church of the Holy Fathers. It only takes half an hour to get there. But he is always doing research. We rarely see him go out. We don't know if he is at home today."
"Could you please show us the way? If he's not here, we can also visit the Ordinance Court." Kong said after pondering for a moment.
"I'll take you there. I happen to be free today!" said the mercenary.
"That's great, thank you!" Paimon said happily.
[Mission: Follow the mercenary to find Harold's residence]
The traveler and Kong followed the mercenary. The mercenary was very talkative and introduced the scenery along the way to the two as they walked.
“We’re at the Grand Bazaar, and the theater troupe performing here is very famous!
The best performance was of course the Zubair Theater performance. Miss Nilu and Miss Yumana were famous stars far and wide. Whenever they appeared on stage, the officials of the Fatwa would sneak out to watch the show!
Especially recently, the manager of Zubair Theater got a group of dancing girls from somewhere, which made us so excited that tickets are hard to come by!"
Paimon: "A dancing sweet flower? Could that be...?"
Sora whispered, "It's a pretender."
Paimon nodded heavily: "That must be it!"
Mercenary: "This is the famous flea market. You can buy anything you want here. The things in the Grand Bazaar are much cheaper than those in other places in Xumi City.
In the past, these merchants might have ripped off outsiders like you, but now the Ministry of Religion has issued a Void to everyone, so you can check the price of items at any time without worrying about being cheated."
Paimon said happily, "Then we are so lucky! We came at the right time."
Kong hesitated for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
After leaving the Grand Bazaar, the mercenary pointed to the majestic building on the high ground and said, "We can see the House of the Decrees from here. Over there is Harold and his family's home. It's blocked by trees now. We will be able to see it if we go further."
The three of them continued to move forward, and the mercenary introduced as he walked: "Speaking of which, that house was a reward given to them by the Ministry of Education. Their paper caused a huge sensation a few years ago.
Later, I applied for other projects and the papers I submitted also received much attention.
Unfortunately, their society suddenly disbanded last year. It was one of the participants, Ms. Setale, who first proposed to withdraw, followed by Elhaisen and Senor.
Many scholars in the academic community feel sorry for this, but there is nothing they can do about it. The three of them hold important positions in the Council of Religious Affairs, so it is normal that they cannot spare the time..."
"The society was disbanded last year?" Kong suddenly asked.
"Yes," the mercenary answered casually, "I heard that the House of Lords is doing some big project. Many graduated scholars have been called back by the House of Lords to participate in it. No wonder the officials of the House of Lords have suddenly become so busy."
Sora asked, "What's the exact time?"
The mercenary was stuck: "...The exact time? I can't say for sure, anyway, it was probably in May after Harold came back from the desert..."
Sora thought: So in May last year, the Ministry of Education suddenly accelerated the process...
Tinari said that the plan of the Order of the Lords is related to the gods...
The fools soldiers who transformed the city into an active one...
During that time, the Skirmishers had already taken the Heart of Thundergod...
Just a coincidence?
Now perhaps only by finding Harold can we learn the truth of all this.
After walking for a while, the mercenary's tone became lively again. He pointed to a large house and said, "We're here. This is Harold's home!"
"Wow! It's so big! Bigger than the nearby houses!" Paimon exclaimed.
"Because this was originally a research site issued by the House of Lords to the five people participating in the society, but among the five people, Setale and Senor gave up this reward." The mercenary explained.
"Oh! That's why we say this is a three-person house." Paimeng suddenly realized, then floated to the door and stared at the lock on the door for a while, "It's locked."
Sora went up and knocked on the door: "Excuse me, is anyone in there?"
