Chapter 973: The Wine Party Shocks (1st Update)
His Excellency Count Eve has been in a very good mood recently, so she rarely participates in this kind of drinking party, but today she is in a good mood, facing the warm invitation of her friend Sharon, so she dressed up a little, and accompanied Sharon to this blood family gathering for a pastime.
Since the fall of the old Marquis of Fett a hundred years ago, there are only two counts left in the family, and they have fallen from the top family of the blood clan to the second-rate family; And since more than sixty years ago, among the only two remaining counts, one fell again because of a battle with the Holy See Templar, the status of this family has plummeted more and more, and even among the second-rate families, it has also ranked at the end;
But fortunately, with the sudden rise of the two Fett siblings, in the past ten years, they have continuously broken through to the earl and obtained the qualification of a member of the Blood Clan's parliament, although both of them are ranked at the bottom, but it is enough for the Fett family to reappear the hope of revival; The family ranking began to climb again, and in recent years, it has gradually obtained a relatively high ranking among the second-rate families;
It's just that in the eyes of some top families, there are only three counts, and the Fitt family, which also has two new counts, is barely good.
And this Countess Serena's Haight family is considered to be the top depositor among the second-rate families, their family has five counts, and their family master, Count Haight, is now the top three depositors among the non-elder councilors of the blood clan, and is even known as one of the most likely to advance to the Marquis in the council in recent years.
Therefore, as such a family, a once brilliant top family has fallen to the bottom of a second-rate family, it is indeed a broken family. However, His Excellency Count Serena, who was under the spread of jealousy, directly ignored the changes in the Fett family in the past ten years, and still disdainfully called the other party the little broken family.
"Earl Link... Long time no see! Smiling and clinking glasses with the other party, Eve did not refuse the enthusiasm of the other party in the face of His Excellency Count Link, who was also extremely handsome among the blood clans, after all, this Count Link was the uncle of an elder councilor, facing the top family behind Link. No one can ignore.
Seeing Count Link coming, a trace of annoyance flashed in the eyes of several men next to him, and after bowing slightly respectfully, he took a step back; After all, in this gathering, there are only a dozen count-level depositors with councilor qualifications, and viscounts like them, who have not yet reached the earl, although with the glory of their own family, are enough to talk and chat with Count Eve, but they are facing a powerful background. And for Earl Link, who is also extremely powerful himself, they still have to maintain enough respect.
"Wow... Dear Eve, it's been a few years since I've seen you, and it's a great honor to meet again..."Earl Link smiled with satisfaction as everyone stepped out of the way, then reached out and gently took Eve's left hand, bowed down and kissed a ring on Eve's finger gracefully.
"Thank you for the compliment," Eve smiled and nodded, not distant or close, but she knew it very well. This Earl Link was a well-known playboy;
Smelling the faint fragrance coming from the jade-like fingers, Earl Link's eyes rippled, this Eve of the Fitt family had rarely come out to participate in such an event, and he didn't expect to meet it this time. And in the past few years, this Eve has become more and more beautiful.
So, he immediately left the Count Serena, who was like a mature woman of thirty. And the one in front of me is a little white flower that has just become an adult, in comparison, it is obvious that this little white flower that has not been collected by anyone is much more attractive.
"Dear Eve... Oh... Your looks really make meβ" Earl Link had not finished his sentence. A familiar and angry voice came from the side: "Eve! β
Eve was stunned for a moment, then turned her head to feel a blast of wind coming towards her, and the eye instantly caught a hand with red nails grabbing at her face; And the people next to them saw this scene, and under this horror, they had already exclaimed, and many people couldn't bear to look at it; Eve's delicate face, under Serena's sharp nails, was just ...
In the horror of everyone, Eve was slightly startled, raised her eyebrows, raised her hand and gently blocked her face;
After an instant, Eve's hand firmly grasped the opponent's wrist, so that the opponent's hand was still five or six centimeters away from her cheek, but it could not advance for half a minute at all.
Eve tilted her head slightly, and looked at Serena, who was looking with bulging eyes and a look of anger and consternation, her brows furrowed slightly, and she didn't understand what this woman was going to do, and she didn't mess with her.
Serena, who was grabbed by Eve's wrist, reacted, and looked at her hand firmly grasped by the other party, her face turned red at this moment, she didn't expect that her claw would be caught by an earl who had just advanced for a few years.
At the moment he screamed in shame and wrestled hard, trying to break free of his hand; However, after struggling harder twice, he found that the other party's hand was tightly locked to his wrist like an iron hoop, and he couldn't get rid of it at all.
Looking at the strange eyes around her, and looking at the disdain and mockery on Eve's face on the other side, Serena's face turned blue and red for a while, and she looked at Eve in a daze, and finally screamed and kicked at the other party.
Looking at the other party's movements, a trace of coldness flashed on Eve's pretty face, grabbed the other party's right hand tightly, and gently strained his hand, and then shook it hard; In the midst of everyone's stunned, Serena, who had just reached the middle of her leg and was obviously unstable on one leg, screamed, as if she had been hit by some great force, and her whole body was tilted, and she was "snapped" by Eve's trembling and slapped directly on the ground.
Hearing this, they saw that their whole face was slapped on the ground, and Serena, who had not been able to come back to their senses for a long time, and after everyone gasped, they looked at Selina on the ground, and then looked at Eve, who was standing there without moving, and her face was full of horror.
Even Earl Link, who was about to speak of persuasion, opened his mouth wide at this time, and looked at Eve standing in disbelief; He is very aware of Serena's strength, he has advanced to the earl for decades, and now he is close to the strength of the middle level of the earl, but by the eve in front of him, who has just advanced to the earl for only ten years, he shook his hand like this, and fell to the ground.
He knows very well what such a situation represents... At least he believed that no matter how careless Serena was, it would be impossible for such a situation to be made like this by a new earl.
"It's... How is this possible? Could it be that Eve has surpassed the strength of... No, far more than Serena? Can... This... How is this possible? Earl Link's mind was full of such suspicious thoughts, as an earl, he was well aware of the difficulty of advancing the bloodline, and every bloodline who could advance to the earl level had a good talent; Moreover, once the blood clan advances to the earl, it will be much more difficult to progress further, otherwise he would not be in the middle of the earl now, and his uncle would not have been able to break through to the marquis for so many years.
But the Earl of Eve in front of him was able to make a Serena who was close to the middle of the count look like this in just ten years after he advanced to the earl...
Thinking about the other party's actions just now, as well as the hidden power between the gestures, and the faint aura emanating from the surrounding body... In addition to the lack of the kind of coercion of a large rank, it seems like... Seems to be only slightly weaker than his uncle... Count Link's mind surged with an incredible thought, but he shook his head again and again; Such a thing is impossible.
The people next to him also had such a look of surprise on their faces at this time, and from time to time they looked at Serena on the ground, and then at Eve who was standing there with an indifferent face.
"Ahh
However, even a few claws were blocked by Eve's light wave of his hand, and then suddenly he snorted miserably, and was kicked in the stomach by Eve, and after kicking out more than ten meters and hitting the corner of the wall, he stopped.
Looking at the scene in front of them, the blood clans next to them were really stunned at this time... The people who can come to this drinking party are all direct bloodlines of the major families, and the lowest strength is also above the viscount, and everyone can see the problem.
The blood clans looked at Eve in front of them with horror, feeling the huge aura that was faintly looming on each other's body, and suddenly their eyes began to be a little humble, and they didn't dare to look at Eve's eyes at will, even Eve's friend Sharon, after waking up in horror, began to bow his head slightly in horror, showing enough humility.
And Count Serena, who was holding her stomach and trembling up from the corner, also looked at Eve opposite with trepidation, her eyes full of incredulity, as a person, she naturally felt it more clearly than the others; The aura of the new Earl of Eve in front of him, and the strength he had just expressed, seemed to be no different from his father, Count Haight...
Thinking of this, the horror in Count Serena's heart became more and more intense, and even when he looked at the other party, a trace of fear began to well-up in his heart... (To be continued......)
