Volume 3 The Visiting Mission Chapter 0085: The Vichy Mission from Far Away
The scene in front of him was very real, but it made Lu Xiaoyun feel like he was in a dream.
Lu Xiaoyun hid alone in a dark corner, looking around at the scene in front of him.
The banquet has been going on for a while, and Lu Xiaoyun hasn't seen the company yet. And of so many people left here, not a single one he knew.
And the conversation between the surrounding gentry and nobles is not something he can interject.
Fortunately, by Lu Xiaoyun's side, there was a huge dim sum table. At this time, Lu Xiaoyun, who had nothing to do, looked at the aristocratic gentry who were chatting in twos and threes, and put a piece of dim sum into his mouth.
"Delicious!"
Generally, when Lu Xiaoyun is in the wild, he basically eats the kind of food that fills his stomach quickly and has no taste. It was only after Shangguan started working as a chef recently that he had the opportunity to eat a few good meals.
As for such a high-end and delicious dim sum, Lu Xiaoyun is afraid that he has never eaten it.
After all, the chef in this world is not the same as the real world, but a life class alongside the combat class.
There are some recipes that require a certain level of strength. That is, the taste of the mysterious world that cannot be made in the real world anyway.
But he's not here to eat, he's here......
What the hell is he here for~?
He had no idea why he was at this banquet.
What is this banquet for~?
It seems that it is not clear to me.
What can I do but eat?
Nothing can be done!
The rest can only be eaten, and if you don't eat it, you won't eat it for nothing.
While thinking about it, he didn't forget to eat it, but this time, he reached over and grabbed the pastry, but he caught something different.
A small piece of soft, fleshy hand.
“emm......”
Looking down, a petite girl like a doll appeared in front of Lu Xiaoyun's eyes.
Long silver-white hair, a white dress, and light blue starry eyes, so cute that they foul!
"Hey! You've got my hand~! "The petite girl in front of me is menacing.
"Oh ~ oh! I'm sorry! Lu Xiaoyun hurriedly apologized and let go of his hand.
Excited hearts, trembling hands. Growing up so big, Lu Xiaoyun has never seen such a cute girl, let alone shaking her hand.
The girl in front of her looked like she was twelve or thirteen years old at most, very short, and at most she could reach Lu Xiaoyun's chest. She sat on the chair, only a little higher than the counter, and she couldn't lean on the counter with her hands on her head like Lu Xiaoyun leisurely.
However, dim sum can still be reached.
"You don't have to apologize so seriously~!" The snack in the girl's mouth has not yet been swallowed in her stomach, and she said vaguely.
Lu Xiaoyun scratched his head, not knowing how to answer.
"Aren't there any taller stools here?" The girl in front of her complained.
In this case, children are usually not allowed to attend! Of course, Lu Xiaoyun still knows this kind of thing, and it's better not to say it.
Looking around, Lu Xiaoyun found that all the stools were at the same height.
"Touch~!"
Uh..., Lu Xiaoyun, who was about to say something, was interrupted by a sudden sound of opening the door.
The door to the banquet hall was pushed open, and a blonde-haired Cleveland led a woman with long gray gray hair in, and behind them, a long line. But what is more embarrassing is that Lu Xiaoyun doesn't know anyone.
"Everyone! This is the envoy of the Vichy Holy See, Ms. Dunkirk. At this time, Cleveland, unlike the usual office, changed into a more formal suit.
Handsome~!
Handsome to foul~!
Cleveland, who has changed his clothes, is even more handsome, and he can even be said to be ridiculously handsome.
There was sparse applause from the audience, and everyone didn't seem to be too enthusiastic.
After listening to Cleveland's introduction, Lu Xiaoyun's mind began to search for information about [Vichy Holy See].
[Vichy Holy See]?!
The description of the process of the country in the background story of the game is quite detailed, and for Lu Xiaoyun, who has studied carefully, he has a lot of information about this force in his mind. In addition, the time he has been in this world is not short, and he will consult the information of this world when he has time.
[Vichy Holy See], formerly known as the Vichy Kingdom, was very rich before it was destroyed by the Empire.
But now, the Vichy Holy See exists in this world as a vassal of the Empire.
Lu Xiaoyun remembered that according to the records in the game's backstory, the Empire's war against the Vichy Kingdom was purely an undisguised war of aggression that the Empire had been planning for a long time.
In the aftermath of the war, the once rich kingdom became a terrible hell, and in the scorched earth of war, the empire engaged in a fierce tug-of-war with the forces of the Vichy kingdom, which had not yet given up resistance.
The people of the Vichy kingdom were valiant, but the disparity in strength caused them to retreat one after another.
Then, with the intervention of the Temple, the Vichy Kingdom finally ushered in a humiliating peace. Under the leadership of Cardinal Richelieu of the Temple, the new forces of the Vichy Kingdom established a theocratic regime, that is, the Vichy Holy See.
"Hey~!"
Lu Xiaoyun understood why everyone present had this attitude now. Because as the people of the empire, they are full of the superiority of the victorious nation.
"Dunzi~!"
The silver-haired girl on the side padded her feet, rested her head on the counter, and looked at Dunkirk on the stage with sparkling eyes.
"Do you know her?" Lu Xiaoyun asked.
"How can I not know, I am also a member of the [Vichy Holy See]!" The silver-haired girl rolled her eyes and said.
Members of the Vichy Holy See?
"Why aren't you on stage?" The girl in front of her turned out to be a member of the [Vichy Holy See] Mission, which made Lu Xiaoyun very surprised.
"I'm so tired, it's enough to have a pier! Blocks~! It's pathetic. The girl in front of her seemed to be in a lack of interest and said weakly.
"Is there any relationship between the [Vichy Holy See] and the [Free Alliance]?" Some didn't know what to talk about, and Lu Xiaoyun asked a rambling question.
"What are you asking for?" The girl replied lazily.
"Uh, nothing!" Lu Xiaoyun was slightly embarrassed.
"It's barely a partner, [the Freedom Alliance] has helped us a lot, and of course, this help is not gratuitous." The silver-haired girl still answered Lu Xiaoyun's question, and then, she said to Lu Xiaoyun: "You are not from the empire, are you?" ”
"Well, I'm an adventurer from another world." Lu Xiaoyun said. That's who they are as players, and among the natives of this world, it seems to be particularly recognized.
"In this way, you are not the same as the adventurers from another world I have seen before, they are always in a hurry, and they rarely communicate with us, let alone attend banquets!" The silver-haired girl said.
"Is that so?"
Lu Xiaoyun was originally like this, but after dealing with the two NPCs of York and Enterprise, Lu Xiaoyun knew that in this world, it was definitely not possible to still have the mentality of playing games, and he had to integrate into these aborigines.
Until the player really grows up, it's these aborigines who lead the way of the world.
"Forget it~! It doesn't matter to me what happens to you. By the way, you don't know my name yet, my name is [Vicious]! The silver-haired girl turned her head to look at Lu Xiaoyun and said.
"My name is Lu Xiaoyun."
The other party's name was very peculiar, and after confirming with the other party again, Lu Xiaoyun was sure that the word [vicious] was not wrong.
"How old are you?" After being silent for a while, Lu Xiaoyun thought about it, and finally asked a question that he was quite concerned about.
"Bigger than you anyway!" Viciousness rolled her eyes, her expression a little helpless.
Older than me, Lu Xiaoyun looked at the other party's body shape again, especially the bun face that did not grow, and couldn't help but be full of doubts.
Lu Xiaoyun's age in the game seems to be much younger than his actual age, but at least he is eighteen or nineteen years old. And the little girl who looked only twelve or thirteen years old in front of her said that she was older than herself, and Lu Xiaoyun was of course unconvinced.
However, vicious didn't seem to be very interested in this topic, so Lu Xiaoyun had no choice but to stop asking.
I don't know what Dunkirk said, and the banquet suddenly entered a climax.
The viciousness around him seemed to be a little unhappy, and Lu Xiaoyun put his eyes on the center of the field.
Dunkirk is a big beauty, and she is standing with Cleveland at this time, only a few centimeters lower. You must know that Cleveland's height is at least 1.8 meters.
Although she is very tall, Dunkirk does not have a trace of stupid big feeling, all because of her beautiful face and sexy figure.
As a representative of the Vichy Kingdom, Dunkirk has always been like water, and he is not in a hurry or slow to speak, and he has the demeanor of a general.
Lu Xiaoyun didn't bother to pay attention to the games of these big shots, and quietly ate the snacks around him.
It seems that there is a little too much to eat, and people have three urgencies. Stuffing the last piece of snack in his hand into his mouth, Lu Xiaoyun turned around and left the hall.
Walking in the corridor leisurely, Lu Xiaoyun's mind at this moment was thinking about malice and the [Vichy Holy See].
"You look so happy~!"
An abrupt voice sounded behind Lu Xiaoyun, startling him, this is the voice of the enterprise.
Unlike the last time we met, the company at this moment wore a certain white hat, leaned against the wall, and looked at Lu Xiaoyun quietly.
Eldest sister, didn't you go to the banquet just to hide here and be scary?
After calming down, Lu Xiaoyun hesitated for a while before saying, "Why did you invite me to this banquet?"
He was genuinely curious.
"Oh~? Well, you'll find out soon! "Enterprise Road.
"Soon to understand?" Lu Xiaoyun looked a little dazed, not knowing what the enterprise meant.
"Every camp in this world has something that belongs to itself. Take a good look at the performance of the Vichy Holy See on this stage in the imperial capital. The company smiled at Lu Xiaoyun and said, "You adventurers from another world are the trendsetters of this world. And that is why you have to do your best to grasp the context of the world. ”
seemed to understand something, but didn't seem to understand anything, Lu Xiaoyun looked at the enterprise in confusion.
The company didn't explain anything, but looked at him with a smile, as if there was something else.
