Chapter 203: Wen Li's Anger
As the saying goes, those who can work harder, this is true.
In the ruined temple, Alan had just been given a chance to rest for a while, and immediately something new was pressing on him, and sure enough, he couldn't be idle for a moment. The feast continues, but Alan must say goodbye and leave.
All the people present were friends, even Jock and others, after a few days of exchanges, they all knew that Mrs. Wen Li had the grace of knowing and cultivating Allen, so when Allen left the table, everyone didn't feel inappropriate, and Cayton even took out a badge and handed it to Allen, saying: "This is the Berkeley family friendship badge, representing the alliance between you and me, entering the Morrell family meeting, if Mrs. Wen Li is embarrassed, you can use it appropriately." ”
Alan took the badge and hung it on his chest, alongside the druid's "Grass Badge" given by Lady Wen Li before, and thanked: "Thank you Brother Cayton, I will make good use of it." ”
At this time, Fluffy also came to Alan's side: "This is the previous interrogation note about Passas, he has personally confessed to the attack on Madame Winley that night, and drew the caption. ”
Hearing the news, Allen was overjoyed, accepted the note, and couldn't stop thanking him.
After saying that, he came to the beast pen again and saw the giant wolf of the north. Suddenly thinking that Shirley still had some leftovers when she activated the Heart of Ice, and she didn't ride this guy anymore, she immediately took out the 10,000-year-old ice spirit fragments, and opened a bloodline activation circle, and injected the blood of the frost giant wolf she had prepared before into the body of the northern giant wolf, and let the magic circle run.
Leaving his mount behind, Eren took the Ash Assassin and the Ice Spirit Spider to the Golden City, found the space teleportation circle that the dwarf brother helped him arrange, and in a moment, he had come to the forest north of the city.
Holding a corpse wand in his hand, he was accompanied by a legendary assassin. Soon they were in the Morel Manor.
Today, Alan came as a guardian knight of Lady Wenli, so when he arrived at the manor, he directly revealed his whereabouts, explained his identity and intention, and soon, he met Mr. Avalo.
"Alan, you're finally here! But I'm waiting for a break! "Meet Mr. Butler Alan. Looks very happy.
After chatting and asking Alan about his situation these days, Avalo pulled Alan to the banquet hall of the highest level of Mrs. Wen Li, which was already full of people. Among the nobles, the etiquette is cumbersome, and although tonight is a family meeting, a fine dinner is indispensable.
By the time Eren arrived, the dinner had already been going on for a while. A few minutes ago. Butler Avalo left the table in a hurry from this dinner. After everyone saw that Avalo had left, they brought back a spellcaster, and they all thought in their hearts, who was this person, who could be treated with such a high standard of courtesy by Wen Li, and sent the highest-ranking butler in the house to greet him personally.
There was a lot of talk at the dinner.
Soon, everyone knew Allen's identity, and it turned out to be Mr. Spellcaster. It is the guardian knight that Wen Li keeps mentioning these days. It's just that this guy hasn't been sealed, how can he be here. And I was treated so well.
Avalo apparently noticed the gaze.
First at Lady Wen Li on the throne, and then at Allen, both of whom nodded and smiled at Avalo.
Avalo then loudly introduced to everyone present: "Distinguished gentlemen and ladies, please allow me to solemnly introduce to you the gentleman who is now standing beside me. It is the guardian knight that Mrs. Wen Li is about to be separated, the great warlock adventurer, Mr. Allen! ”
After speaking, take the lead in applauding.
Although everyone has doubts about Allen's origins, Allen is the guardian of the Earl's lord after all. The words have been said to this part, Wen Li's face still has to be given, so there was lively applause at the dinner.
Alan has a hundred years of experience in the Divine Grace Continent, and is well versed in the etiquette between nobles, and in the face of everyone's welcome, Allen's staff is a point, and he performs a standard warlock ceremony, and he has won a lot of favor for a while.
Alan came to Mrs. Winley's side and saw her again with chivalric etiquette.
After bowing, I heard Wen Li laughing, and a moving voice sounded in my ears: "You have been hiding well these days, and no one can find you." ”
Alan smiled awkwardly when he heard this, and said: "I have participated in the chaos of the Golden City today, and I am busy everywhere, but I am not hiding. ”
Wen Li's rather seductive eyes looked at Alan motionlessly, and looked up and down for a while: "You say that, but there is some truth in it, sit down and eat something first." ”
After saying that, Wen Li ignored the eyes of others, and asked the steward to arrange a place closest to him for Allen, and then, a mountain of food was placed in front of Allen. Wen Li asked Alan to come tonight to support herself, and now Wen Li is just testing it, this kid has the courage to face a bunch of nobles.
At the same time, Wen Li also noticed Allen's entourage, this entourage was dressed in a black robe, silent, and had a cold attitude, Wen Li asked people to send him wine and meat, this guy actually just watched and didn't move. Looking at this body again, there is no fighting mana at all, and Alan brought him here, but he doesn't know what his intentions are.
Alan seemed to see Mrs. Wen Li's concerns, chewing slowly, swallowing the food, and said softly: "This guy is very strong, if there is a meeting for a while, it can be of miraculous use." ”
Wen Li listened, knew in her heart, showed a bright smile, and waited for the end of the dinner with peace of mind.
At the dinner, Alan really lived up to Wen Li's expectations, silently destroying hundreds of catties of food, and the nobles were dumbfounded. Except for a small number of people who regarded this as a child's play, the rest of the nobles were shocked, and even the next person had already sent Allen's information, and the knights and elders read it and calculated it in their hearts.
After a lavish dinner, it's finally time for a family meeting.
The meeting was arranged in the most important council chamber of Morel Castle, Wen Li, as the owner of the earl's title, sat at the top, and Allen, as the guardian knight, stood one meter away from the table, standing in a dimly lit place, as for the adventurer who came with him, he did not know where he went.
Of course, there is no such thing as no one.
Two days ago, the evil ghosts in the Golden City were in turmoil, which led to a big riot and turmoil among the slums, which led to the existence of the abyssal forces, and the Golden City entered a state of alert, and all families or individuals who had a little relationship with the evil ghosts or the abyssal forces. In the end, they were all interrogated and even arrested.
As a result, a huge storm was also set off among the nobles of the Golden City. In just two days, six or seven nobles in the city were liquidated on suspicion of developing abyssal forces. Completely subverted, even the title of nobility was completely stripped away.
For a while, everyone was in danger, and they were afraid that they would have a little relationship with the abyss forces.
And at this critical moment, Wen Li seized the most powerful baron in the Morel family, Passas, with strong means, and set off a monstrous wave within the family, shaking the mountains for a while, in order to control the chaos. Stabilize people's hearts, so there is a family meeting tonight.
In the meeting, in addition to Mrs. Wen Li, there were 6 family elders, 10 nobles with knighthoods, and several important clerks and executives, a total of more than 20 people, and these 20 people. It also forms the core leadership of the Morel family, which is worth noting. Among them, there are two elders who have the power of the Legendary Realm, and they are also enough to influence the direction of the family meeting.
In the Golden City, there are no more than 15 legendary adventurers, and in addition to the two legends, the Morel family also has two or three quasi-legends, such a force. Among the aristocracy, it can be regarded as strong.
When the time comes, the topic begins.
Presiding over the family meeting was a third-order mage, a quasi-legendary cultivator. Mrs. Wen Li's husband's cousin, in his forties. There was anxiety and anger on his face, and he lacked some of the sophistication that a spellcaster should have.
At the beginning of the meeting, the mage sorted out the dynamics of the Golden City today. As a count's family, the Morel family obviously has a lot of information that others can't get, and Alan listened from the sidelines, and couldn't help but secretly exclaim, it turned out that in just one or two days, the struggle for the nobles in the Golden City had been so fierce.
When talking about the situation, the third-order mage believed that the current political situation in the Golden City was treacherous and volatile, and it would be difficult to calm down in the next few years.
Having said that, everything is fine, Alan listened silently from a distance, and even felt that the Morel family had a very clear vision of the problem, no wonder they could still be seen in the turbulent afterlife.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the third-order mage turned his words and actually aimed the spearhead at Allen.
"Having said all this, the main thing is to tell you the importance of tonight's meeting, in order to prepare for future changes, and to properly handle the Passas, without further ado, let's go straight to the discussion stage. Now, I have a proposal, Madame Wen Li, can we ask unrelated people to leave, such as the knight behind you! ”
Hearing this, Mo said that it was Allen, but Wen Li was also stunned.
Alan was specially invited by himself, in order to cheer for himself in this meeting, and he didn't expect that his husband's cousin would attack himself and Alan as soon as he came up, which was obviously a slap in the face, and Wen Li's face suddenly sank.
On the other hand, when Alan heard this, he naturally felt that the other party was not good, and glanced at each other with the ruthless eyes of the third-order mage, Alan smiled slightly, this person's strength is average, and it is not a problem. Although his heartbeat was quickened by the provocation, his courage did not diminish at all.
Although the spearhead of the third-order mage's words was pointed at Allen, the object of the inquiry was Wen Li, who sat indifferently, did not break the rules, and waited for Mrs. Wen Li to answer.
Who would have thought that Mrs. Wen Li stood up suddenly and slapped the table: "Marcel, your words are extremely targeted and unpleasant, Alan is my guardian knight, my glory, life is his duty, you want him to leave now, do you want to embarrass me!" ”
The third-order mage Marcel asked Alan to leave, indeed in order to suppress Mrs. Wen Li's momentum first, and to gain space for conversation for the matter of Passas, this matter was approved by the family elders, but he didn't expect that Mrs. Wen Li would make such a big fire for a small guardian knight.
The third-order mage failed to suppress it, but instead angered the family helmsman in the venue, and for a moment of embarrassment, his heartbeat accelerated a little, his face flushed, and he looked at Mrs. Wen Li in embarrassment, not knowing how to answer.
On the other side, Alan saw Mrs. Wen Li stand up, and stood up quietly, guarding Wen Li's side.
The third-order mage Marcel noticed Allen's gaze, and for some reason, he was a little scared in his heart, and secretly exclaimed that he had such a strong aura, what is the origin of this guy!
At this moment, a legendary swordsman, with white hair and a short beard, typical of the Morel family, stood up and said, "Wen Li, you sit down, don't be angry, your guardian knight can stay." Marcel, go ahead and preside over the meeting......" (To be continued.) )
