The princess hall of the Duke's Palace, although the name has a hall, but in Ye Yuan's opinion, this is a huge palace, and Li Chunqiu spent the area of an entire annex building to create such a top-notch banquet hall.

Ye Yuan is also accustomed to seeing the world, and he has also participated in many wealthy banquets in China, but it is rare to see someone like Li Chunqiu.

Delicacies from all over the world are served in a steady stream, and there are more than 10 live chefs in the banquet hall alone, and the cuisine is also to meet the needs of all guests.

Ye Yuan took a knife, cut a pile of beef, sheep, pigs, fish, shrimp and crabs, filled three plates, and then sat in the corner and ate.

As for the leaders of the mercenary group, they each talked to the officials of the Duke's Palace, and they all wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to establish a good relationship with these officials, so as to make a good impression on the Duke, after all, they all hoped to be the Duke's guests.

It's a pity that the Duke didn't show up for the whole banquet, and only one butler entertained the mercenaries, which made some people very disappointed.

If you are disappointed, you have to vent some of your negative emotions, and there are naturally hostile ones among these mercenaries, so some friction in the banquet is inevitable.

Salia tried her best to avoid these frictions, sat down with Ye Yuan, and also picked up a full amount of food and ate it, as if she hadn't eaten anything good for a long time.

"Lady's point, especially on this occasion. Ye Yuan couldn't help but suggest.

"How much is a lady worth? When there is no food to eat, man becomes a beast. So don't hesitate to eat, don't wait until you're hungry to regret it. ”

Salia's words really made Ye Yuan empathize, presumably Salia has also experienced a lot.

"Saria, is this your real name?" Ye Yuan suddenly asked, she was a half-breed, and she should be half a Westerner.

"This is the name my dad gave me, he was originally a knight of the Great Eagle Empire, and met my mom during a visit to Viet Nam. However, they were destined not to be united, and at that time there was already a war in Vietnam, and my father did not leave for my mother, and he was still guarding her until the last moment of his life. ”

Salia began to tell her story, and although there were reservations, the truth was inadvertently revealed.

"It's still hello, you still know about your parents, where is it like me, I was born an orphan. ”

Ye Yuan's emotion aroused Salia's curiosity, but before she could ask, she heard a commotion in the center of the banquet hall.

The riot soon sparked a fight, and the two mercenary captains, who were five big and three thick, began to fight each other, although they were bare-handed, but they were fists to the flesh.

The strength of these two regiment leaders is good, and they probably have the level of a four-star martial artist, and this battle is extremely effective, and the tableware, tables and chairs in the banquet hall have also been broken.

In the face of the fight, those officials didn't even come out to stop it, but hid aside to watch the show, and only the housekeeper left in a hurry.

In a short time, the middle door opened, and a burly man in military uniform strode in, his chest covered with medals and shining golden in the light of the banquet hall.

"Hehe, it's so lively, this luncheon is dull, so add some fun. ”

The man in military uniform spoke loudly, and the originally noisy voices around him suddenly quieted down, and the two regiment commanders who were still fighting also stopped.

"Duke!" all the officials and servants bowed down and said, and only then did the other mercenaries know that this person was the owner of this mansion, Duke Li Chunqiu, the actual ruler of Hu Tiancheng.

Everyone quieted down and listened to Li Chunqiu.

"You are all my guests in Li Chunqiu, and you are also the objects on which my trip to Tianxue Palace depends, so I hope that everyone can cooperate sincerely instead of being suspicious of each other. Of course, the benefits that can be obtained by different abilities are naturally different, and your words and deeds are considerations, which are related to your value, and I hope you will take it seriously. ”

After the duke said this, he went straight to the butler, as if he was explaining something, and those mercenaries were talking about it, they didn't bargain for this mission, after all, the identity and glory of the duke's mercenaries were already of great value.

At this moment, listening to what the duke said, the remuneration this time should be very expensive, as a mercenary, to raise the men and horses under him, and to buy weapons, he naturally needs a lot of money, isn't this a good opportunity?

Originally, there was a feud and it was not bad for this day, so the banquet hall was quiet, and at this time, an unexpected accident happened that everyone didn't expect.

A mercenary came over with a wine bottle and staggered over, only more than ten meters away from the Duke at the moment.

The duke's guard saw the abnormality and stopped the mercenary, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw blood shoot from his wrist, and the entire palm of his hand was missing.

Then, with blood-red eyes, the mercenary lunged towards the duke, and the speed was extremely fast, close to divine speed!

However, before the mercenary could get close to the duke, one of the guards beside the duke hugged the other party, but the man was so powerful that a few elbow blows actually dented the backs of the guards.

The next moment, the mercenaries reacted and rushed towards the man together.

Since they were not allowed to carry weapons in the banquet hall, they had to use their bare hands, but far from quenching their thirst. With that man's speed, he could get close to the Duke in an instant.

The duke also reacted at this moment, and took out the matching gun, which flew out of the man's shoulder.

But the man was already face to face with the duke, and the knife in his hand was waved at the duke's neck.

If the Duke is killed in front of everyone, their group of mercenaries will lose face.

But the nearest mercenary was still five meters away from the duke, and he couldn't teleport, so he couldn't save the duke at all!

At this moment, a white light flashed, and the five fingers of the man's knife fell to the ground, while the knife grazed the duke's cheek and slashed to the ground.

The man missed a blow, and before he could stabilize his body, he was caught by the mercenary who rushed to the front, and then he added punches and kicks.

Although the man lost five fingers, his tricks were very sharp, and within two seconds of fighting, he didn't even let the mercenary force him back.

Unfortunately, at this time, a large number of mercenaries arrived, and under the attack together, the man became a meat target, and was knocked unconscious in a few clicks.

"Stay alive!" the Duke was shocked, but he still thought of the key point and hurriedly shouted.

But it was too late to say this, the man had a dinner knife stuck in his chest, and he stabbed him in the heart with a blow, and he couldn't live anymore.

The good banquet was stained with blood, and everyone's interest was gone, and this assassin came from a mercenary group, and everyone had to be isolated for investigation.

Compared to the others, Salia was the most surprised, because she could see very clearly that this flying knife was still in Ye Yuan's hand one moment, but the next moment it appeared on the wall thirty meters away!

This detail was also noticed by the duke, and when he came to the throwing knife, he just glanced at it, and fell into deep thought.

"Let everyone stay in their rooms, and I'll interrogate them myself!" said the duke sharply to the butler.
