Quentin didn't doubt what Roddy said, but he became interested in his identity and asked, "Then what are you doing here?

Roddy looked at Angmar, who was talking and laughing in the crowd in the distance, and did not answer Quentin's question directly, but asked rhetorically: "Let me ask you a question - if you continue to support the Duke, maybe your family will be the next to be besieged, and you may lose everything and even your life, under such a threat, aren't you afraid?"

"I'm afraid, I'm not afraid!"

Quentin shook his head disdainfully, but the worry in his eyes was not hidden too deeply, obviously this was just a face-saving word.

However, Quentin shook his head and continued: "My father said that the continuation of a surname depends on his attitude towards his own people - those guys think that the Duke's 'garrison border' is meaningless, but who stopped the orcs and the undead when they came?

"When the crisis arises, they drag their feet, and when everything is over, they boast all kinds of things, only knowing to take the credit on themselves, and not mentioning the efforts of the Duke..."

Quentin made a look of disgust and pursed his lips, completely disdainful of being in company, "Knowing that the Duke is doing the right thing, knowing that those guys are doing the wrong thing, in that case, why should I support those guys who have in their heads?"

Roddy was a little surprised by Quentin's outlook on life, "unity of action and knowledge" is easier said than done, he thought that Quentin would come up with countless excuses, but he didn't expect his reason to be so "simple".

Quentin seemed to want to say something, but when he raised his eyes, he saw two figures walking towards him. His face changed, and he cursed secretly: "It's really endless!"

Roddy also heard the footsteps, and slowly turned around, and saw two children of Quentin's age: the boy had some freckles on his face, and his body was fat, and the girl's appearance was marked, but it was just a low-cut dress that pretended to be mature but not suitable for her age.

"Quentin, what's the matter with just running away? Who are you counting on to salvage this situation? Captain Roddy? Or Sodrore?"

The little fat man came up and pointed the finger at Quentin, ignoring Roddy's meaning at all. However, the girl next to her saw Roddy's eyes lit up, coughed lightly, and greeted politely: "First meeting, I'm Lucy, may I ask if you are..."

"He's a guest of the Medici family, and he has no interest in you. ”

Quentin was not merciful to the girl at all, and said to Lucy very meanly: "Don't pretend, your little family is not worthy of the Medici family." ”

In fact, there is no "Medici" family in the Cullen Kingdom at all, and Quentin is just exaggerating - children brag about not making drafts after all, and it is enough to hit each other.

Lucy is also fourteen years old, although most of them are engaged at this age in terms of nobles, but as a noble girl who has not left the cabinet, her face is a little unbearable after being so sarcastic, her cheeks are crimson, and she is embarrassed and retorts: "What's the matter with you? I still don't like you! If your father continues like this, it will be a matter of time before the family falls!"

"You're in the same league as Quentin?"

The little fat man is the Basta who Quentin said told him to "go to the toilet after the family is broken", the thirteen-year-old is not tall, looking at Roddy who is two ends older than himself, and the hostility in his eyes is not concealed at all - half of this is naturally due to Lucy's attitude towards Roddy.

"No, I'm not in the same league as Quentin. ”

Roddy smiled, the child's provocation and hostility were not even child's play in his eyes, so he didn't even have superfluous mood swings.

Quentin was a little stunned by his words, and then listened to Roddy continue: "I'm in a gang myself, so I don't have to participate in your struggle, right?"

Several children looked at each other, this unreasonable way of playing cards made them not know how to answer for a while, and after three seconds, Basta simply chose to ignore Roddy directly, and continued to taunt Quentin: "Coward, you were saying just now that the Duke's army is not afraid of threats, but now? Do you think Wellington is coming or Titus is coming? They are too busy with their own affairs, can they still come to mention the Duke to relieve the siege?"

He crossed his arms in front of his chest, tried to put on an aggressive look, and continued: "I tell you, even if the captain of Roddy, whom you admire the most, comes back to life, there is no way to reverse the defeat now! My father and the private soldiers brought by those lords add up to a thousand, and if Duke Angmar has to do it now, there is no way at all!"

This made Roddy next to him laugh - it seems that he can always hear his name in other people's mouths these days, this feeling is quite subtle, and he asked Quentin a little strangely: "Do you admire Captain Roddy? Why?"

"Because what he's doing makes more sense than these bastards!"

Quentin seemed to be excited about the incident, and he shouted at Basta in a high voice: "What was your family doing when Captain Roddy killed the undead? What was your family doing when he went to the border to support? According to the distance, your father's private soldiers could have arrived at the Sola post earlier, but what happened? Your father found a bunch of bullshit reasons to prevaricate, and it wasn't until the end of January that the news of the end of the battle came out... With such an act, you still have the face to call me a coward?"

Not to be outdone, Basta quarreled with him, and Roddy felt that there was no need to persuade him, so he took a step back, and turned his attention to the venue - the Duke of Angmar over there had finished talking with Quentin's father, and at this time, the smile on the corner of his mouth was restrained, and he turned to the lords who had been against him for a long time, both openly and secretly...

For Luo Di, the main event of this banquet has now officially begun.

And just as he squinted his eyes slightly and thought about these questions, Lucy, the aristocratic girl next to him, had been looking at him for two or three seconds - to be honest, compared to Quentin and Basta, who were arguing with red ears, Roddy was like an outlier, and his momentum was overwhelming... It's quite lethal to young girls in their youth.。

It is difficult for the former otaku Roddy to have any "momentum" in real life, and the only impression he gets when walking on the street is "listlessness" and "long-term sleep deprivation", but after staying in this world for a year, Roddy has completely transformed.

Although Lucy didn't know what Roddy had experienced, she already had a little curiosity in her heart - seeing that the two people over there were arguing more and more fiercely and couldn't intervene, she simply came to Roddy's side and said in a casual tone: "For a person who has died, they have quarreled over and over again many times, and I can't persuade them." ”

She didn't have much credibility in what she said, but Roddy didn't bother to take it seriously, just nodded: "Heh... It's normal to have disagreements, it's just that the guy who died is important?"

"You say Roddy, his deeds are amazing, and to be honest, I think Captain Roddy was just born at the wrong time, and he can't escape his doomed fate after all. Lucy smiled and grimaced, "But my father always thought he was a scourge of the territory, a careerist who wanted to take advantage of Miss Sally..."

Roddy's eyebrows raised, and then he was relieved: according to the general means of power struggle in this era, taking Sally directly is indeed the fastest and most trouble-free way to expand his power, which is far easier than going all the way to take a powerful but empty Elson City.

"My father thought he was tricky and the biggest obstacle to Ivta's development... But I'd love to meet the captain, I've heard he's better than Wellington and Titus Knights. ”

It can be seen that Lucy is the kind of nostalgic girl who longs for "romance", and the way she looks at problems has little to do with politics, but she just likes the "alien" rebellious feeling of Roddy.

"Did you ever go to war? I see a mark on your cheek, is it a sword cut?"

Lucy couldn't hold back her curiosity for a long time, and asked a few questions in a row, but before Roddy could answer, Quentin and Basta, who were next to her, were on the verge of losing control of their emotions because of the quarrel, and there were faint signs that they were going to do something. Roddy smiled at Lucy and walked over and patted them on the shoulder, separating them from their "cockfighting" state.

Roddy wasn't interested in dissuading them from improving their relationship, he just didn't want an accident to interrupt the original plan, so looking at Quentin and Basta, who were snorting and red-eyed, he said bluntly: "There are many ways to convince others, rather than suppressing everything with a loud voice... Those who silenced the whole world to listen to him whisper were actually even more terrifying. ”

He looked up at the moonlight above his head, and then said, "I still have something to do, go first, you guys talk slowly." ”

The atmosphere of the banquet gradually improved, and in the sound of the band, the nobles who danced gracefully quickly blocked Roddy's figure, and the words he left made the three young boys and girls stand here thoughtfully for a long time...

"What family is the Medici family, and what is his name?"

Basta muttered with a frown. Quentin, on the other hand, thought back to all the conversations he had had had since he met Roddy, and felt that the other party seemed to be far from being as simple as he imagined, so he trotted into the venue, thinking about carefully asking the other party about his "details".

Lucy and Basta tried to keep up with Quentin, but at this moment, there was a sudden and strange silence in the room—the dancing nobles, with wine glasses, and whispering aristocrats, gradually turned their heads and collectively looked at the figures in the center of the venue.

It seems that between the Duke of Angmar and several nobles... It has reached an unprecedented impasse.

And when they were speculating whether this was a "showdown" between the two forces of the territory and nobles, no one paid attention to the figure of Roddina strolling into the core of the venue.

[Tomorrow's two watches, the monthly pass is double from today to October 7th, and it just so happens that my birthday is also October 7th, during which I try to have more of it, and I hope that my friends who have been supporting me can vote for a few more votes, thank you!]
