Chapter 257: Identity

"It is an honor to meet you, Your Excellency the Viscount!" The innkeeper hurriedly saluted.

Ammary. Pugasov nodded reservedly, as if he had said hello. Although they looked arrogant, in the eyes of the other two, this was a matter of course.

"Tegel, can you tell us who those two are?" Sir Rogman asked, lowering his voice.

"I can only be sure of one thing, and that is that they can directly contact His Majesty the Emperor." The innkeeper hurriedly replied.

"His Majesty the Emperor has his own intelligence system under his direct jurisdiction, but those people are just passing on information, and they can't have much power." Ammary. Pugasov flicked the title conferral letter lightly, "According to the rules of the Empire, lords above the title of viscount can confer noble titles above the rank of knight of the lord and downgrade of their own titles, but they must report to the Imperial House of Nobles. And those two couldn't have returned to Heidelberg so soon to get the knight's conferral, so there was only one answer,"

His gaze looked a little suspicious: "They carry with them a blank knighthood letter, which not many people in the entire Ortiga Empire can do. Sir Tegel, can you describe the looks and manners of those two? ”

"The two men, one male and one female, the female being a formal magician, and the male looking like a down-and-out nobleman, both of them were elegant and decent, and they were obviously from famous families. But I heard the man call the magician Miss Bell, and the magician called him Mr. Beirut. ”

Hearing this, Sir Rogman was indifferent. Ammary. After repeating it a few times, Pugasov's face changed slightly, but then a puzzled look appeared: "If I am not mistaken, the woman should be Hathaway, Countess of Cordillera. Bell, the man should be His Majesty's favorite Leonardo. Count of Beirut. I heard that these two are both favored ministers of the emperor's majesty. It's just that...... Are they really here to buy food and inquire about those underground races? ”

It is not surprising that His Majesty the Emperor is interested in the affairs of the underground race. The surrounding surface nations were shocked by the sudden start of the war against the Alpine kingdom by the dwarves of the Underground, and even imposed sanctions on trade with the Underground races. But it has also led to the increasing rampant smuggling activities, which will most likely reach the ears of His Majesty the Supreme. The upper echelons of the province were already worried about this matter. Now it seems. It seems that the worst has happened - His Majesty sent a secret visit to his cronies.

Ammary. Pugasov immediately thought about what kind of benefit it would be for him to know about this matter. To be sure, no matter which side he leans into. can all get benefits. The difference is only in the size of the interest. But. One of the highest heads of the Chamber...... It sounds very majestic, but in the eyes of those bigwigs, the deliberation hall is just a clear water yamen. If you don't have any power, you won't be taken seriously. Thinking of this, this viscount has already made a decision.

Seeing the Viscount's expression change drastically, both the innkeeper and Sir Rogman immediately understood that the identities of those two mysterious figures were far more than they originally imagined. However, these two people, who were already extremely proficient in observing words and expressions, also knew that it was absolutely not suitable to ask the pale Viscount in front of them about the identities of those two gentlemen. I can't even continue to inquire, these two experienced businessmen have already seen too many examples of catastrophe because they know things they shouldn't know in the first place.

"Do you want to give the owner of this place a little reminder?" Sir Rogman asked cautiously.

"Don't." The viscount replied with a solemn expression, "Sir Tegel, do those two have anything else to propose?" ”

"His Excellency the Mage also seems to be interested in the affairs of the refugee camp, and she vaguely mentioned that she wants to recruit a large number of laborers."

The innkeeper paused, then cautiously said, "Maybe it's time for Radu. Mamari and Villach. The two gentlemen of Cyberpunk discussed. As far as I know, those two big guys are very urgent, and it's best to get this done as soon as possible. ”

Hearing these words, the viscount nodded again and again, knowing the details, he naturally knew that this was an opportunity, but it was also the beginning of danger, if the opportunity was not secret, and there was no honor and humiliation, those bigwigs woke up and would definitely not let go of themselves.

When Hathaway saw Leonardo. As Beirut calmly chatted between a few half-aged men, he knew that this guy had accomplished most of his mission...... In the end, it is the favorite of the emperor's majesty, if there is no real material, I am afraid it is rare for Fei Wenlie XVIII to be so trusted.

What they were going to talk about next had nothing to do with Hathaway, and she politely said goodbye and left the stage to Leonardo. Beirut show.

When Hathaway reached the lobby on the first floor, there were already a lot of guests coming in, she took a glass of white wine from the waiter, went to the window facing the back garden, took a sip, and began to think about her next steps. Officially, it was impossible to formally accept the migrants, and the commissioners in the camps were vampires who had no interest in satisfying their bloodthirsty desires and had no time to talk to them. Maybe it can only be a soldier who goes off the rails and finds another way.

There was a burst of laughter at the door, and Hathaway turned her head to see several gorgeously dressed women slowly walking in in the kind of gorgeous long skirts with the hem mopping the floor, their traditional tight vests on their upper bodies were particularly tight, and the cuffs were as if they were not enough fabric, very short. Because the round neck on the chest is large, most of the chest is exposed, and it is dazzling white...... It is no wonder that some people say that prostitutes and noblewomen are only different in the places where they appear, and there is no difference in essence.

Although the banquets here are not as high-end as those of Heidelberg's high society, those who can be invited here are either the dignitaries of Vannell or the wealthy merchants, and there are no poor people in and out of this place at all. However, the protagonists here are not the men, but the noblewomen.

These ladies come with their husbands or their boyfriends, and when their companions begin to search the crowd for prey, their eyes are also searching...... Or rather, they want to be someone's prey.

In this kind of banquet with a rather ** atmosphere, there is always no shortage of hunters and prey. Watching this scene happen in front of her eyes, Hathaway only felt funny, just like watching a play.

"Miss, my brother has seen you for the first time, right?"

A soft voice sounded beside her, Hathaway suddenly had goosebumps all over her body, and turned her head to see a man in his thirties, thinner than Huanghua, with a malt-yellow face standing beside her with a wine glass...... The shape is like a Persian curved spout teapot.

Holding back a smile, Hathaway nodded sternly: "You are indeed seeing me for the first time." ”

With that, she turned around and hurried away...... It's not that she's rude, it's just that the perfume on the man's body is too strong, and she has a feeling of suffocation. (To be continued......)
