Chapter 120: Have You Seen the Peacock's Ass?
Angela ate the first time in several months that Angra had eaten the family feast.
Unlike the farce at the door at the beginning, during the family feast, he was like a little transparent, barely participating in any conversation, just silently eating his own meal - at most, he shivered for some reason when he ate the dessert milk pudding, and always felt as if he had forgotten something.
During the banquet, Angra's father Pang Leyin didn't care much about his youngest son, but often talked and laughed with Qin Lun, although as a dignified imperial grand duke, he would not be a shy face and lick a dog, but it could be seen that this usually high-ranking duke still gave considerable importance to the disciple of the continent's No. 1 alchemist who almost became his daughter-in-law.
Angra's eldest brother, Pombed, was also very active in offering his courtesy to the girl, and at the same time trying to show off his wealth and talents, and did not forget to pull Angela out as a contrast without missing a trace, and that appearance was like a male peacock in heat with the screen open.
And Angela, who was innocently cue, was like a person standing behind the peacock in the open screen, and took a look at the other party's ugly ass. That ugliness even made Angela feel a little disillusioned - what was the eldest brother of the representative of the 'perfect aristocracy' that I longed for as a child? Is it because the eldest brother's IQ has declined during this time, or has his life in the town matured him?
But it is precisely because of this that Angela feels that his eldest brother should not be the mastermind behind the whole process against him: he puts hostility almost undisguised on his face, and keeps looking for his own ballast in small places, Pomped's appearance is completely like those harlequins in knight novels who don't live more than three chapters, forcing Ge Ge to burst, how can it be a behemoth like the Summoning Secret Eye Society, secretly doing it to himself and even the town three times and twice, and also killing the second brother who came into contact with this matter, So that you can't find the slightest clue at all, and even if there is a person behind the scenes, you can only remain skeptical?
As for the fourth person at the dinner table, the eldest lady of the Einzwalt family, Qin Lun, was uncharacteristically very interested in Angela, if it weren't for the fact that Pomelin and Pombed, father and son, had been talking to her, I am afraid she would have found an opportunity to run to Angra's side. This kind of display, which can be seen at a glance by a discerning person, naturally made Pompard even more jealous, although there was not the slightest expression of anger on his handsome face, but there was a slight gloom in the blue eyes that were in the same vein as his father.
After dinner, Angela was about to go to the side room to meet the players.
It was a strange experience, knowing that until a few months ago, I had lived in this castle and considered it my home.
But after knowing that someone was secretly trying to kill him, this so-called home became strange, and even made him feel very uncomfortable, and subconsciously wanted to stay with those players who were usually regarded by him as sand sculptures, but were quite reliable at critical moments.
It wasn't even a few steps before his eldest brother overtook him from behind and said in a voice that only he could hear the moment he staggered.
"I know your secret."
“!” Angela was startled and looked up at the big brother who was still like a peacock at the table just now.
And his surprised expression fell in Pompey's eyes, which made Pomped confirm his conjecture - the 'God-given treasure' of the Fatt family mentioned by his father in the secret letter was indeed in the hands of this guy!
Why! Obviously, I am the Fat family, the heir to the throne of the Duke of Silver Eagle! Why did my father give that thing to Angela, a little scumbag he hadn't seen since he was a child!
Angela also seemed to feel that she had reacted a little too much, and after a little reflection, tried to pretend that nothing had happened: "I don't understand what you're saying. ”
"Do you want me to be clearer? That's a topic related to 'gods'. Pompeid smiled evilly and said in a deep voice.
Angela frowned slightly, and said in his heart, could this guy know about the god of games?
Now, Angela also knows that the God of Games is regarded as a heretical god by several religions, and Tiera has been destroyed because of it, and if the news of the resurrection of the God of Games leaks out widely, then the town may also usher in that fate. After all, the current players are still immature and cannot be compared with those big churches with nearly a thousand years of heritage.
If it was Angela before, he might have shown his cowardice and panicked to reveal some flaws, but after arriving in the nameless town, Angela has also experienced a lot of things as a lord player, and these experiences have become the food for the growth of teenagers, and Angela at this time is no longer the timid and angry bag in Pompey's impression.
In a flash of light, he had already prepared for the worst.
It is at least two or three years before the eldest brother inherits the title, after all, the father's body is still quite strong, and before that, those large churches will not go on expeditions because the son of a duke has no proof.
And Angra, who gives players two or three years to what extent they can develop, and sees everything that players have developed from scratch to now, is very optimistic. Not only is the player's level constantly rising, but their number has continued to rise as the players spontaneously release their paths under the stimulus of the weekly quest 'The Light of Our Lord Shines on the Earth', and the total number of players has exceeded 200 so far, and it is still growing steadily......
But in the case of his brother's 'no evidence', on the other hand, if he has any proof that the Church of the Game God has been revived and is growing rapidly, it is foreseeable that at least the town will suffer from the destruction of those big churches!
In this way, there is only one way to deal with it.
Angela quietly opens the system page that no one else can see, opens the player forum, and entrusts them in a post from the dog, hoping that they will infiltrate his brother's sub-castle to determine if the other party has a 'credential' that could threaten the safety of the town.
"That (artifact) is not something you can get your hands on, so it's better to give it up." Seeing that Angela was silent for a long time, Pompede, who felt that he had suppressed the other party, said proudly.
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Thinking of this, Angela said coldly to his brother: "But my own (faith) affairs, I don't need to worry about you, elder brother. ”
The two confronted each other for a while, and finally broke up unhappily.
