After many days of dreary atmosphere, Jiantai finally returned to its former busyness.

The first to third floors are completely occupied by a pair of professionals who participate in the preliminaries of the big competition, and often this pair has just decided the winner and the contestants behind them have stepped on the field.

The preliminaries, which had been delayed by the invincible for more than ten days, finally officially began today.

However, in order to determine the top three winners of each class before the national celebration "Poseidon Feast", which is held at the hottest time of the year at Saint-Germain, the Doujian Tai had to schedule the preliminaries 24 hours a day to cope with the large number of contestants.

And another reason why the sword fighting platform is so lively is because of invincibility.

Tang Long, who has just removed the name of the owner of the fifth floor of the Fighting Sword Table, will be the special guest judge of this Fighting Sword Fighting Competition, responsible for commenting and guiding the final winners. This news was written on the bulletin board at the registration office in a very large font by the staff of the fighting sword platform, and anyone who entered the registration office could see it clearly and unmistakably at a glance unless they were blind.

This news not only moved many high-level and gold-level professionals, but even a few people from the Holy Rank decided to participate.

The judges of the Sword Fighting Arena have always been strong at the peak of the Holy Rank, and they are fully qualified to comment on every contestant in terms of strength, but Tang Long, who served as the judge this time, according to legend, turned out to be a small god rank!

The quality and preciousness of this person, who had half stepped into the gate of the Divine Order, should be enough to surpass the peak of the Holy Order. This is also the highest rank powerhouse in the history of the sword fighting platform, and then the god rank...... They no longer belong to the mortal world.

Wanting to find a god-level powerhouse to be a judge is undoubtedly a big joke.

Many of the people who competed used all their strength in order to let this Tang Long judge see it, maybe he would casually point out a few words to himself, or even ...... Make yourself his student. That's the luck of God's gift.

However, the Tang Long judge, who made everyone excited, was not at the sword fighting platform at all at the moment, and even ...... Not near the sword fighting platform.

……

Invincible was sitting idly on the lawn of the Saint-Germain Palace, and the rattan chaise longue swaying back and forth under him made him feel relaxed for a long time.

The chuckles of the two big and one small beautiful woman beside him from time to time made his sense of ease even more obvious.

Squinting at the blue sky, Invincible sighed softly: before the storm, the sky is always very calm and peaceful.

However, women are always the enemy of tranquility.

Not long after the three women snickered at the idleness of Invincible lying on the chair, Elaine finally stepped up to Invincible. The voice said with a smile: "Hey, Carly just secretly told me that you are lying on the chair and dangling, very much like a model Beamon she has seen." ”

Invincible opened his eyes, and the silver mask on his face flashed with a soft silver glow under his eyes: "This kind of chair is very comfortable to lie on, but the most suitable people to sit on this kind of recliner are those who are old." ”

When Elaine heard this, she shook her head and said, "Really? How do I feel like you're lying on this recliner. It feels very ......" At this point, she couldn't help but think about it, and then found the right adjective: "Do you feel like you're a good fit for this recliner?" Are you old too? ”

Invincible raised his head and sighed lightly: "Although it is not absolute, I am indeed not young." ”

His memory has too much black, and if the experience in Blue Star is counted as an elder, the experience of the elder is rich beyond the imagination of ordinary people living for a hundred years, but he is not proud of it.

Too many memories. Sometimes it's a burden.

Other than making him easily distracted, it is of little practical use.

Elaine looked at the slightly pursed and lowered lips on the invincible mask, and suddenly felt that the figure of Tang Long in front of her was very lonely.

The purple light in her eyes flashed, and Elaine stopped talking, and finally just said softly: "Are you missing the past days ......?" ”

Invincible turned his head to her. After a moment of silence, he suddenly smiled: "Do you want to know?" ”

Elaine stared at Invincible in some surprise, hesitated for a moment and finally bowed her head lightly: "Yes!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Elaine suddenly felt a strong light flash in her invincible eyes, and it gradually faded after a long time.

"You want to know, it's not impossible, but...... It's a long story, and maybe I'm going to spend months or even years telling it, you ...... Are you sure you'll be able to finish the story? There was some kind of hint in the invincible and fluttering voice, which made Elaine's face change suddenly.

A few months? Years?

Do you really have that much time?

Elaine thought of this. I couldn't help but smile bitterly, and forgot to answer the invincible question for a while.

"Life, after all, is an unsatisfactory thing as the protagonist." The invincible voice that was not loud woke up the distracted Elaine, and the content of these words resonated with Elaine's heart even more - who can truly live carefree?

Even if Tang Long, the inheritor of the Heavenly Sword Tang Family in front of him, seems to outsiders to be infinitely beautiful, doesn't he also have a lot of helplessness?

The heart sighed, but Elaine chuckled lightly: "As long as you want, then ...... There will always be a chance in the future, so tell me slowly. "Say it. She straightened up, "Afternoon tea is ready." Let's go together, the two sisters have been waiting for a long time. ”

Invincible sighed lightly and said lightly: "Then let's go." He got up and walked over to Karl and Carly.

Karnon and Carly were talking about something, and when they saw Invincible coming, Karnon hurriedly stopped talking to his sister, but the smile on his face did not relent, and he took a few steps with a smile: "Mr. Tang Long, please sit down, afternoon tea can begin." ”

Carly stood behind Kanon, and when she heard this, she nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Brother Tang Long, if you don't come again, then Eskem will melt." ”

This made Carnon embarrassed: Carly, a delicious little fellow, said this as if she was also greedy for the novelty Eskem.

Invincible chuckled, and said to Kanon as he stepped forward, "Thank you, Miss Karnon." He walked up to Carly and reached out and rubbed her head, "Miss Carly, Eskem is sweeter, and if you still want to enjoy the taste of cappuccino, then it's best not to rush to eat it." ”

Carly turned around with Invincible and looked at the two Elaine drinks on the small table. The combination of thick snow-white foam floating on the brown liquid made her lick her small pink lips, and said hesitantly, "Then ......, I'd better drink cappuccino first." ”

As she spoke, the speed of her feet couldn't help but speed up a little, as if she was afraid that Eskem would really melt if it was too late.

Shaking his head and smiling, "Miss Carly, if that ice crystal is still with you and you need to put it next to Askem, you don't have to worry about it melting." ”

Carly cheered. A necklace was pulled from the skirt of the chest, and the pendant of the necklace was a small and delicate golden cage, and the leopard-shaped magic crystal was tightly fastened to it. Carly quickly untied her necklace and lowered the golden cage next to the crystal bowl that held Eskem.

Only then did he turn his head to look at Invincible and asked, "Is this okay?" Big Brother Tang Long? ”

Invincible, he nodded again and again: "Miss Carly did the right thing." ”

As he spoke, he walked over to the brocade bench beside Carly and sat down, and Carly sat down on the other side of Carly, but Elaine smiled and said, "You're all seated, so let my afternoon tea maker serve you my new drink." Miss Carly. You come first? ”

Carly nodded, but her eyes were fixed on Askem. - She's watching to see if Eskem continues to melt.

Invincible, Kanon and Elaine looked at each other and smiled, and afternoon tea began.

In the study of the palace, Casilla II quietly looked at the crystal in front of him—the scene of the afternoon tea of the Invincible and Canon, as if it were within a few steps of them.

"It seems that Tang Long and Kanon Carly get along well." Casilla II's voice sounded faintly, without any hint of joy or anger.

Hearing this, Calis's eyes faintly flashed with a look of sympathy, but this look quickly disappeared from the depths of his eyes, and he thought for a moment before he said in a deep voice: "It seems that Tang Long has a good impression of Kanon and Carly." ”

"Favorable?" Casilla II chuckled. "Not necessarily."

Looking at Calis's puzzled eyes, Casilla II waved his hand: "However, you don't have to guess Tang Long's thoughts, the role of Karl and Carly is very simple. As long as they can invite Tang Long, they don't have to worry about anything else. ”

Calis bowed his head when he heard this.

Casilla II gently stroked the alien-shaped flower-like ring on his left hand, and asked after a moment of silence, "What has Calais been doing lately?" ”

"Nothing special. Even the palace of the Prince of Gaul has not been to it for many days. Calis's eyes were cloudy.

Sometimes, a brother who is too smart and capable is not necessarily a good thing, especially when even his father is wary of Calles.

If it weren't for the major accident in the last battle of Ron's Fortress in Bayabimon, this third brother's reputation in the Saint-Germain ** regiment would undoubtedly have soared. Although the idea of schadenfreude was not appropriate, Calis himself couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart several times that the God of Creation blessed Calais did not allow him to reap the rich results in Ron Fortress.

Calis even wondered if his father was rejoicing in such a result. Otherwise, his terrifying uncle, Prince Mo Hanmo of Gaul, is likely to be supported by the Saint-Germain soldiers again.

Casilla II's voice interrupted Calis's thoughts: "It seems that Calles is getting more and more powerful. Wait a minute, tell the Hidden Demon. Send two more groups to Calles. ”

"Yes! Father. Calis replied in a deep voice.

……

It was dusk, the Champs-elevated sky was orange-red with large clouds inlaid with gold edges, and the sea faintly heard the low and dull sound of the storm horn, which was the Imperial fleet off the coast of the Champs-Elysées changing guards.

Tea time was a great time – at least for the little princess Carly.

The invincible smile never ceased, and throughout the afternoon he was indistinguishable from a noble, elegant, and considerate nobleman, and his usual somewhat cold demeanor surprised both Canon and Elaine, but he enjoyed his subtle praise.

The chuckle of the three girls barely stopped. Until the sky darkened, and the afterglow of the setting sun swept over the highest part of the palace hall. Invincible suddenly spoke: "It's night so soon? What a pleasant afternoon. ”

Canon's heart was reluctant.

In this way, when used at a gathering among nobles, it is equivalent to the subtext of farewell. A pleasant afternoon was finally over, and Canon couldn't help but glance at the palace behind the trees not far away, and suddenly shivered.

The cold and dark night of the palace had never been more terrible than it was now.

Could it be that Tang Long, who brought her hope for freedom, made it more and more difficult for her to endure the indifference and ruthlessness of this palace?

However, the official farewell finally began.

Carly looked at Tang Long and Elaine with reluctance, the former bringing her laughter and the latter bringing her delicious food. Carly, of course, prefers the former, as laughter is the least common thing at the Saint-Germain Palace.

Invincible bowed softly and said, "Thank you Miss Carnon and Miss Carly for your hospitality, it was the two beautiful young ladies who made me have a very pleasant afternoon, but it was getting late, and I thought, as a gentleman, that I should take my leave earlier, so as not to disturb the rest of the two young ladies." Lack of sleep is the natural enemy of women's beauty! ”

After Invincible finished speaking, Kanon replied with a very formal and perfect squatting salute, and replied: "Mr. Tang Long, it is really a happy thing to invite you to our sisters' afternoon tea party, because you have made me and Carly feel extremely happy. Wish...... We'll have the chance to invite you again. ”

With that, Canon's blue eyes fell deep into invincibility.

Invincible smiled: "That's really an honor, I will definitely come to taste the afternoon tea of the two of you again when I have the opportunity." Both Ka and Carly smiled brightly when they heard this.

Elaine, who was only witnessing this scene from the sidelines, sighed lightly: Tang Long, why are you always approaching danger?!
