Chapter 64: A Mission Without Difficulty
The number of players in the Dragon Eagle Imperial Capital is far beyond Zhang Yan's imagination, compared to the streets of the Frozen City, the streets are like two worlds at all.
Less than a few minutes after it was transmitted, a text message of greeting was sent, but most of them were asking Zhang Yan if he had any extra equipment ready to sell.
The establishment of major guilds has caused the price of equipment to appear at two extremes, one is that the price of mass equipment has dropped by one-third, and the other is that the price of purple equipment has been nearly doubled.
Before you can't see the orange equipment, a piece of purple equipment is equivalent to a status symbol, especially the main forces of the major guilds, if you don't have one or two pieces of purple equipment on you, I'm afraid you will be embarrassed to go out.
Suddenly, the little white bird in the air hovered and landed on Zhang Yan's shoulder, and said clearly: "Since the little guy is back, come to me." ”
The voice was calm and unhurried, with a sense of non-refusal.
The white bird rushed to the sky after saying that, this is the voice of the Count of Sfio, and he will never forget it once he hears it.
Although Count Imoo's rank seems to be only one order higher than Zhang Yan's, the strength among the nobles is not calculated in this way, even the Duke of Imoda may bend down when he sees Sifio, and it can even be said that the Duke of Imoda is just a vassal of the Reinhardt family.
Although he did not know what the Count of Sho Sifio had summoned him for, he immediately hired a carriage.
The manor is still quiet and beautiful, the housekeeper and maid are all standing quietly on the side, Si Fei O is lazily leaning on the chair, with a fierce two-headed dog lying on his feet, seeing Zhang Yan immediately roaring, he was knocked by Si Fei O casually and immediately whined and flattered Si Feio's big hand.
"Lord Count is well." Greetings from Zhang Yan.
Si Feio always gave Zhang Yan the feeling of illness, just like those aristocrats in the opera, his face was pale and scary, but he dressed himself up like a peacock.
"You're doing a good job, and of course I'm talking about how fast you level up." Sifio said casually: "You have reached the defender so quickly, I'm afraid even someone who really has the bloodline of Bauhinia can't reach it, I'm really curious about how that one-eyed dragon trained you." ”
Zhang Yan shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's very painful, but at the same time it's a very pleasant experience. ”
Sfio smiled, Dieterswa wouldn't have remembered it if he hadn't been the head of the Yellow Sand Prison.
Zhang Yan took the initiative to ask, "I don't know what happened to Lord Earl Lu Dao coming to me this time?" "Si Fei's current identity is definitely no less than that of a main city lord, and he usually wants to see each other, and he doesn't know how difficult it is to meet him.
Sifio said casually, "Do you know the Bauhinia family?" Without waiting for Zhang Yan to answer, he said softly: "Those are a group of arrogant and united people, flamboyant and domineering and full of bards' manga and fantasies, a very contradictory group of people. ”
Zhang Yan still has a detailed understanding of the situation of the Bauhinia family, which has only taken seven or eight hundred years from its establishment to its destruction, but there have been more than a dozen powerful people who have shocked the world, and even a few of them are comparable to the Founding Emperor.
It is said that the destruction of the Bauhinia family was caused by the suppression and decomposition of the other three of our families, but who knows the specific situation.
"There is a game tomorrow, you go with me, instead of the Bauhinia family, it doesn't matter if you lose, there will be unexpected rewards if you win." Sfio casually mentioned.
Zhang Yan asked, "Instead of Bauhinia?" ”
Sifio nodded and said, "Instead of Bauhinia." ”
Zhang Yan stayed at the earl's manor at night, and Sifio asked the housekeeper to send more than a dozen books to Zhang Yan, which could not be taken away.
These books are all about the Bauhinia family, and they are all handwritten books treasured by the Reinhardt family.
Zhang Yan watched it with relish, but his face became more and more serious, and he could only smile bitterly later.
Crazy, the patriarch of the Bauhinia family is definitely a war maniac, not only fighting with the orcs in order to expand his territory, but also fighting with the other three major families.
A powerful and wealthy family was beaten and impoverished, and when the Bauhinia people themselves wanted to give up, the other three families suddenly joined together to launch a fatal blow, and a large area of territory was divided.
After not sleeping all night, Zhang Yan found that his divine sense had increased to two points.
After breakfast, Zhang Yan sat in the luxury carriage of Sifio, the carriage walked very fast, but the direction was not in the city.
Half an hour later, the carriage drove into a manor, and Zhang Yan found that all kinds of luxurious carriages were parked in front of the manor, and even a few of them were high-level demonic beasts.
"Oh, my dear brother, you are always so punctual." A young man stood at the door and greeted him with a smile on his face.
Sifio frowned in disgust and said coldly, "You are still such hypocrisy, my brother. ”
The hall was covered with red blankets, and in the center was a long table, on either side of which were already sitting a few people, as if preparing for a meeting.
Si Fei O took Zhang Yan and sat down in the front position, next to his brother's position.
"Sit next to me, don't be nervous." Si Feio looked at Zhang Yan standing aside and said softly.
Soon both sides were filled with people, and at the same time a middle-aged man sat in the center.
Si Fei said: "These are all fiefdom nobles in the Dragon Eagle Empire, of course, every year there will be a few more people here, and there will be a few fewer people, and the ranking of seats will be according to the ranking of the family." ”
"The presiding officer is the eldest prince Wendell."
Zhang Yan saw that the people around him were either laughing loudly, or they were scolding each other angrily, especially at the end of the table, and they were standing and directly scolding.
"I am calling you here today on behalf of my father for three things." Wendell looked up at both sides, and when his gaze flowed over Zhang Yan, he felt as if he had been seen through with a chill.
Wendell didn't seem to care if the people below listened to him or not.
"First, this year's tax revenue will be increased fivefold, and it will be sent to the imperial capital within three months."
"What? Why is it so high. ”
"How can we come up with such a high tax rate, my territory can barely make up for this year's taxes."
Wendell raised his second heel and said, "Second, the families with territories on the border are at war, and the orc tribes are already forming legions. ”
A smile appeared on Si Fei's face, not only him, but Zhang Yan also noticed that the faces of the several family representatives at the front of the seat were all smiling.
War is like a big fish swallowing a small fish, and the faces of some patriarchs who were already small in their territory immediately showed a dark color of horror.
Even in normal times, these families are constantly attacking each other, not to mention that there is such a good excuse now, of course, everyone who can do it here will have a network behind them.
Wendell raised his third finger, and finally showed a hint of anger on his face: "There is still half a year to go before the death match with the Frozen City, and our Dragon Eagle Empire can't lose, so each family must send the strongest to participate in the competition." ”
"The meeting is over, can we go?" Someone stood up as if they had just woken up, stretching and ignoring Wendell's gloomy face.
"It's worth the time to bring everyone together for this little thing." A chubby guy shook his head, loud enough to make the hall buzz.
Sifio coughed, slowly stood up, and suddenly said, "Patriarch Shur, Patriarch Laos, Patriarch Mikaro...... Wait a minute. ”
A total of six patriarchs looked at Sifio.
"The territory of a few of you turned out to be the territory of the Bauhinia family." Sifio smiled mildly and said, "Hand it over in three days." ”
"For what, do you want to tear up the agreement" Laos asked loudly, and at the same time, the first person to stand up just now also tilted his head to look at Sifio, and said, "Sifio, is this what your Reinhardt family means or your own will." ”
The seat is higher than that of Sfio, and he can ignore Wendell, and he is at least one of the direct heirs of the three major families.
Zhang Yan now understood why Si Feiao suddenly beckoned him over, and let himself know some of the deeds of the Bauhinia family.
Zhang Yan stood up and said lightly: "Under the platinum diamond ring, Viscount Bauhinia, the territory occupied by the six is my Bauhinia family. ”
Si Fei O said: "It is very illegal to occupy, in order to safeguard the interests of the empire, our company Fei O is willing to sponsor two hundred Viscount Bauhinia knights." ”
Hiss! Everyone in the room took a breath of cold air and felt a chill in their backs.
Five or six knights per family is already remarkable, and a territory of fifty knights is considered medium-sized. Now Sifio opened his mouth to be two hundred knights, and this kind of strong force was astonishing.
"Ding: Special mission, identification."
"Mission: Let everyone recognize the identity of the Viscount Bauhinia, and let the withered Bauhinia replant seeds in the soil of the empire."
"Mission Reward: Unknown."
"Hint: Directly eliminating the opposing opponent will be the fastest and most direct way."
At this moment, Sfio revealed the ambition hidden under his pale face, and even a few members and vassals of the Reinhardt family were shocked.
With a smile on his face, Wendell said, "Viscount Bauhinia was approved by my father the emperor in the previous paragraph, and according to the laws of the empire, you must hand over all kinds of occupied territories. ”
"Ha Luha, the Bauhinia family has long perished, you say he is, he is."
"Hmph, even if he is the Viscount of Bauhinia, he is not a member of the Bauhinia family at the beginning."
"It's ......"
"Since there is a dispute, let's settle it with the oldest method." The first middle-aged man on the left said, middle-aged in his fifties, with a calm look on his face, and a compelling light in his eyes.
Wendell stopped talking.
Everyone also quieted down, Marquis Solo is the younger brother of the current Brute Bear Patriarch, not to mention Sifio and other younger generations, even the patriarch of Reinhardt and the patriarch of the Blue Wolf family have to give some face.
Zhang Yan's face remained unchanged, and he was surprised in his heart, each of these parts seemed to be coincidental but they were all arranged by Si Fei in advance, and the eldest prince Wendell had obviously formed an alliance with Si Fei O, but he didn't know what position this Marquis Solo occupied in it.
"Okay, I'll accept the duel."
"The Micaro family also accepts the duel."
"I agree."
The six families discussed it, and although their faces were ugly, they still nodded in agreement.
There was a dueling arena outside, which had already been arranged, and when they got outside, the crowd quickly split into two groups.
Wendell walked up to Zhang Yan and said, "Bauhinia is a proud name, and I hope it will be remembered by everyone from today onwards." ”
"I will." Zhang Yan was calm.
"Hey, brother, you're not going to war against the orcs." Sifio's brother leaned in front of Sifio, not hiding his surprise at all, but the anger in his eyes was obvious.
Si Feiao said to Zhang Yan: "Don't be careless. ”
