Chapter 65: Goodbye to the Chaotic Banquet
The night opened like a long curtain, and the noble and bright red gown swayed in the chaotic light.
Got out of the cart drawn by the demon dragon horse, who was frightened by the crocodile mount on the side, and led the people from the Earl's Mansion who were waiting on the side to the gate.
"Invitation, sir." A heavily armed "knight" stood in front of Zhou Duan.
"Of course." Zhou Duan took out the invitation letter that had been prepared long ago from his arms.
"The clothes are very tasteful." The knight took the invitation and praised it earnestly when he let him go.
After thanking the other party for the compliment, and walking through a corridor that looked unusually gorgeous, Zhou Duan saw several subordinates in red formal suits waiting in front of the door of a large hall.
"Tonight's banquet is inside, sir, and have a good time." The waiter speaks the lingua franca very fluently.
Zhou Duan no longer needs a translation of the local tune, and as for some phonetic issues, people will always look up to history in a high esteem.
The waiter at the door did not check on Zhou Duan, which made Zhou Duan a little puzzled about their role.
"Oh, shepherd, you're here, I just wanted to go out and pick you up." A somewhat greasy and exaggerated voice appeared in front of Zhou Duan.
What followed was a giant as huge as Roshan and more than three meters long.
No matter what world it is, it is the first time that Zhou Duan has seen a human being completely equal in height and waist circumference.
This is none other than tonight's master, the Earl of Maichel, who is also the younger brother of the current deputy city lord, and Zhou Duan said that even at his stage, he can't tell who is who in the second place.
Because they look exactly the same.
"Good evening, Lord Wells." Zhou Duan responded politely.
"I've been living in the city well lately, but I promised my eldest brother."
"Of course, the servants are also very attentive."
Wells's big chubby face suddenly smiled weirdly at Zhou Duan, which made Zhou Duan wonder if the other party had misunderstood something.
"There are quite a few noble ladies invited tonight."
"I'm sure tonight will be an unforgettable night." A middle-aged man with the usual gloomy and decadent countenance of an aristocrat said.
According to the average life expectancy of 70 years for humans here, the other party is at least half.
"Lloyd, if you don't feel well, you can quit early, I'm sure none of the girls here will regret your departure."
"Oh, it can't be, you know, so many cute little girls are waiting for me?"
"Have fun." Wells ignored Lloydbee again.
Zhou Duan had heard that Lloybeh, known as the ridiculous baron, had died in battle with the Viscount of Gufar, who had given him the title, and that he should have been stripped of his title.
However, it is said that he was favored by a certain lady who inherited the title, and exhausted his family wealth to apply for a hereditary baronial title for him.
Hereditary titles are territorial and can be compared to a title earl like Mychelle.
However, the "mistress" of Baron Lloydbee was thus dissipated and not only did she get nothing, but she was also forced to remarry a powerful earl.
Of course, Zhou Duan doesn't know how true or false the story is.
However, it is a fact that Lloydbee is called the Baron of the Ridiculous in your circle.
I took a glass of red wine from the slightly scantily clad maid who passed by, tasted it, it tasted good, but it tasted like wine...... I've never drunk this universe myself.
There was still a while before the banquet officially began, Zhou Duan looked at the banquet hall, and could only say that he was worthy of being an earl, compared to it, the small apartment he ran couldn't be on the table at all, but he didn't care about it.
On the second floor of the back room of Mychel Manor, there was a study, and two identical people stood opposite each other.
Vidos looked at the bright lights flickering not far away: "It's a great invention, but it's already history." ”
"You still like to feel so much, brother."
"Who's to say it isn't, is that little guy coming?"
"At your invitation."
"Don't underestimate him, not because of his kingdom."
"Okay, but those legends about the seeds of hope ......"
"Wells, you can choose not to believe it, but the truth is close, let's wait and see."
......
Just as Zhou Duan was admiring the aesthetic differences between different cultures and the elegant beauties who seemed to be expectant and dazed, a quarrel not far away attracted the attention of the guests, including him.
It was the ridiculous baron who had just met, and the crimson liquid was slowly but surely dripping from his otherwise meticulous gown.
The broken wine glasses scattered on the floor tell the do-gooders who yearn for something a boring truth.
And in front of this ridiculous baron, there stood a noble lady who was not so noblely dressed, but no matter the temperament, his appearance was better than all the noble ladies that Zhou Duan had seen in the field today.
It's just that at this moment, her eyes are full of stubbornness, and her originally regular blonde hair falls on her thin shoulders and chest because of her excitement, and there is a glass of intact red wine in the tray in her hand.
Obviously, even the most impartial judge will have his own tendencies.
"I'm so sorry." The housekeeper who rushed to hear the news saw the scene and immediately apologized to Lloyd, but the body protected the maid behind him.
"Is this the hospitality of the Mychel family?" Lloybi's fiery gaze still hadn't left the grace of the maid, and even Zhou Duan seemed to have such a look that was too disgusting.
"We should meet the needs of our guests, but the McCher family also has a limit, and improper satisfaction will lead to greed." The butler replied without humility or arrogance.
He had heard about the situation just now before he came up, and in Hope City, the Mychel family was not the top, but he would not be afraid, and the fault of this matter was obviously the other party.
Once they retreated, the prestige of the Mychel family would be ruined, and their reputation would become unpleasant, and as for the personal reasons of the maid, it was not in the butler's consideration.
Lloydbee is not stupid, and even if the McCher family would negotiate with him, they would not give in in to such a public occasion.
But the woman patted the dress viciously, and Lloydbee was ready to change into the dress before the banquet began, hoping that it was still too late.
Zhou Duan saw that things had calmed down, but he never took his eyes off the maid, and after the butler took the maid out of the hall, he followed.
At a corner in the backyard, Zhou Duan saw from a distance that after the housekeeper and the maid said a few words, the other party's face became very bad.
Maybe because the people in front of it are scattered in the backyard, Zhou Duan didn't encounter any private places that were forbidden to enter.
......
"I'm sorry." Siya felt that she was really unlucky today, no, it should have been like this recently.
Under the gimmick of using the oriental's "seed of hope", several people entered the city together.
But the purpose is different, Siya and the other party can only say goodbye in a hurry.
After spending almost all of his savings, he finally got the status of a freeman in the city, but housing was a big problem, as were the daily expenses.
Landi was targeted for selling many of the beasts in the Corridor of Fear, leaving some of her wealth to Siya and Dorian, and her whereabouts are unknown.
Siya and the others found a small and inconspicuous house in the city to live in, and asked around about Landi's whereabouts on weekdays.
But it is clear that there is not much to gain.
And the money has gradually become uneasy, so Siya and Doan made a lot of determination to decide to enter the nobility and become subordinates.
In this way, there is not only a stable income, but also a lot of banquets and news among the nobles.
This would be more conducive to inquiring about Landi's situation.
In this way, Siya and Doan easily entered the Earl's Court with their previous aristocratic life.
On weekdays, Siya can also cover up some of her natural beauty a little by relying on some disguises.
It's just that the people who asked for the appearance today had to be decent.
That's why there was the scene of the ridiculous baron before, although it subsided for the time being, but whether it was the punishment after the butler and the greedy eyes around him who looked at him.
Siya knew that she might not be able to stay here any longer.
I can only pray that the other party does not react too quickly.
was thinking about it, but unexpectedly bumped into another person, Siya's miserable state of mind was a little gloomy again, but she still subconsciously bowed and admitted her mistake.
I have already apologized, and I hope that the other party will not be as lawless as the previous one, otherwise......
Siya's eyes drifted to the broom leaning against the wall.
