"How many of them came?"

The Count of Lorraine asked the kneeling servant nervously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Six. ”

"Who are they?"

"They were all wearing black cloaks, I couldn't see it clearly, but judging from their size, there should be two teenagers, and from the weapons they carried, they could tell that there were four swordsmen and two magicians, and one of them was a female archer, and her archery skills were quite good. ”

At the mention of the female archer, a frightened look shot into the servant's eyes.

"Steward, go and gather all the attendants of the manor. ”

Hearing that there were only six people from the other party, and there were two children, the Count of Lorraine relaxed a little, and hurriedly asked the housekeeper to gather the family's private soldiers and prepare to deal with the mutation.

"Master, we have too few attendants, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop the two magicians. ”

The butler hesitated.

The Lorraine family has a centuries-old tradition of not keeping strong private soldiers, and their territory is well-fed and peaceful, and they really don't need a strong army to ensure safety. It is precisely because of this that the family has won the trust of the successive emperors of Yus, so that from the founding of Yusi to the present, how many glorious families have declined and declined, but they have always been saints. But since a few years ago, the surrounding situation has changed a lot, entrenched in the Great Rift Valley of the Bols horse bandits will run to Yus's side from time to time, although they are all small troops, but the food and materials of the Lorraine family have been robbed, for which the Earl of Lorraine had to turn to the Yus border guards, the head of the border guards, General Robert, promised very well on the surface, but in fact turned a blind eye, this is not the border guards deliberately inaction, but the military department above has an order, for the Bols horse bandits to support, not to fight, for this Count had to call his illegitimate son Elvis back from the magic academy, hoping to use Elvis's identity as a magician and the fame of the Academy of Magic to play some deterrent effect, and at the same time, he also plans to strengthen the construction of the family's private army. But as it happened, as soon as Elvis returned, the bandits really disappeared. Of course, the Count of Lorraine, who was indifferent to the military, did not know the real reason that Higg and the Holy See had intensified the encirclement and suppression of the Bols horse bandits, especially the blockade of the border between the two countries, although the purpose of Higg and the Holy See was not to protect the Lorraine family, but to cut off Yus's aid to the horse bandits, but the territory of the Lorraine family also benefited indirectly, and the peace was restored, and the construction of the private army came to a halt。 Therefore, the current strength of the Lorraine family's private army is still very weak, which is only enough to suppress the family's servants and settle some simple disputes in their own territory.

"The Lorraine family is a hereditary nobleman ordered by the founding emperor of Yous, and since they are from Boulder City, unless they want to rebel, they will not dare to touch us a single hair. Hurry up and gather your attendants, and strengthen our prestige first, as long as they don't break through, our men must not make the first move. ”

The Count of Lorraine said confidently. He has just recently recruited a new chief of guard, with the strength of a mid-level swordsman, as long as there is no high-level swordsman among the people who come, plus the hundreds of private soldiers in the family should be able to deal with it.

When the butler heard this, he could only take the servants on the ground and hurriedly go out to make arrangements.

The Count of Lorraine was very analytical, and listening to his words, the tension of the others was also relieved a lot.

"Father think twice, this group of magicians has always been lawless with the trust of His Majesty the Emperor, if they are allowed to come in, maybe something will happen, and when the time comes, it will be completed, and I am afraid that His Majesty the Emperor will only be able to calm things down. ”

After the butler went out, Clooney had to further remind his father that after all, the prestige of the magician made him very jealous, and it was hard to imagine what kind intentions he had when he came to their house at this time.

After Clooney's words, no one spoke in the living room for a while, and fell silent, and the whole family frowned and thought about the purpose of the visit, only the Count of Lorraine kept moving, and the bottom of his boots rubbed against the floor and made a "clattering" sound.

"Since they have come all the way, I am afraid that avoiding it is not a way, and sooner or later they will have to meet. ”

The Count of Lorraine walked twice around the drawing-room, and at last he came back to the window and stopped, ending his meaningless thoughts, and knowing everything in one meeting rather than fooling around.

"Master, we are worried that they will be uneasy and kind here, and it will be unfavorable to the master. ”

The Countess walked up to the Count, took his arm, and said worriedly.

"Master Qiqi, the attendants have been assembled. ”

The butler walked in with his attendant soaking wet. At this time, the rain outside was heavier, and the rain was blown obliquely by the wind and struck the window, making a rapid sound.

"My dignified hereditary earl of the empire, are you still afraid of the two magicians, the butler will invite them in, and I will meet them in this living room to see what they want to do!"

After listening to the butler's words, the Count of Lorraine finally had some confidence, he raised his eyebrows, made up his mind, and ordered loudly.

"Alan Kanter, a student of the Imperial Capital Academy of Magic and a friend of Elvis Lorraine, has come uninvited to meet the Earl. ”

The butler had received the order, and as soon as he opened the door of the living room, the voice of a young man came in from afar, and even though it was raining heavily, it still fell on everyone's ears as if someone was close to you.

The person who spoke was Allen, they waited outside the gate for a long time, but the servant who reported the news did not come back for a long time, there was a rush of chickens and dogs jumping in the manor, and even the sound of the command to line up, they immediately had a sense of foreboding, but they were afraid that today this matter could not be solved in an atmosphere of friendly consultation between the guest and the host.

"Break in!"

When he was studying at the Academy of Magic, Elvis was Allen's best friend and said almost everything to him, so Alan was very familiar with the situation of the Lorraine family, and knew that Elvis was not on good terms with family members because of his background, and he also had a lot of dissatisfaction with his family, especially his father, the Earl of Lorraine and the Countess. In today's situation, it is obvious that Elvis's status in the family has not improved in any way, so Alan feels that it is appropriate to teach the other party a lesson and kill the other party's prestige, as long as he doesn't shoot too hard, maybe Elvis will be happy to see it. Moreover, if you show your strength appropriately, you may be able to play a beneficial role in discussing food matters later.

So Alan decided not to wait any longer, and ordered Harvey and Stanny to leap in and open the gate, the doorman tried to stop the two, but Harvey kicked them away, and then the group drove straight into the manor under the watchful eyes of the trembling doorman.
