The Earl of Lyne's Court is brightly lit and full of people.

Outside the mansion, there were a succession of horse-drawn carriages that stopped, and then out of the carriage came the local nobles dressed in gorgeous and luxurious clothes, and some were wealthy merchants, these people who usually looked at the commoners were nostrils to the sky, and some acquaintances immediately praised each other after meeting, and some were hostile and avoided from afar, they would not be stupid enough to cause trouble for Earl Lane at the banquet tonight, unless they no longer wanted to live in the city.

In the mansion, the waiters and maids kept shuttling among the celebrities and nobles, and the trays in their hands were filled with fine wine and exquisite food, which was the same as when the big men of the original world held banquets.

The Earl of Lane, as the lord of the mansion, was talking with a wealthy merchant couple who ran several grain shops in the city, when his eldest son, Peter, came over to give him a look, and he immediately left apologetically, and went with Peter to the balcony outside the second floor of the main building.

"How's it going?" The Count asked directly.

"Imas lost, there were two opponents, and one of them was in the battle, a Teflin summoner, summoned a demon knight, and killed Goth and Imath's apprentice with one easy move, but they didn't kill Imath, they just stripped off his clothes and robbed the magic battle, and then let Imas go." Peter was a middle-aged man with a beautiful mustache, with a fair and well-maintained face, and it was clear from the clarity and organization of his debriefing that he was not a fool.

Count Ryan nodded, this eldest son, who was seven points similar in appearance and temperament to him, had always been his right-hand man, and he asked again, "What about Imas?" ”

"I guess I felt that I had lost all my face, and I didn't have the face to come back to see us, so I fled, right?" Peter guessed.

"Then don't worry about him, but what do you think of the strength of those two people?" Earl Ryan didn't like Tevelyn either, but he had other plans.

"The two shots we know of, the first was the gray-robed human, and the second was the Teflin summoning warlock, but the gray-robed human is not sure if he is a mage yet, because there are some people who are powerful in martial arts who can also hurt people with air." Peter could not fully guess what his father was thinking, and could only say some of his own guesses.

"If you want to know, it's very simple, you send someone to deliver an invitation and a carriage now, and they should be able to catch up in two hours after the banquet speech." Count Ryan said suddenly.

"I see, but father, the other party has offended us like this......" Peter said halfway through his sentence, and that was enough, some words should not be said completely, as his father often taught.

"Peter, you still have to broaden your horizons, no matter what kind of person the other party is, even if it is a dog, as long as it is used in the right place, it will be useful." When Count Ryan spoke, he gently shook the scarlet wine in his glass, and looked like he was in control of everything: "Think about it, since they have such strength, they still have to do such a thing as stripping Imas, what does it mean?" ”

"Poor!" Peter suddenly realized, looked at his father's eyes with a little more respect and envy in his heart, and immediately nodded obediently and said: "I see, they may even deliberately play tricks to attract our attention, but this kind of person is also the best to master, so I will send someone over immediately." ”

After finishing speaking, Peter looked down on the two gray-robed men who originally felt a little mysterious and powerful while looking down on the two gray-robed men who originally felt a little mysterious and powerful, thinking that they were just two poor ghosts, with their family's wealth and power, maybe they would just benefit from the fingers, and these two gray-robed men would bark like tamed dogs, but if he could really think of using that method to attract their attention, these two gray-robed men would be a little clever, and maybe he could try to win one of them under his command……

……

"Hey! You're already so strong, Ruth and I are just two ordinary kids, can't you let me go? ”

In the room, Jack yelled or complained at Zhou Dong.

"Don't underestimate yourself, don't overestimate yourself, besides, with your cleverness, you still can't figure it out, if Earl Lane's youngest daughter really finds a mentor, the clouds in the sky will never intersect with the mud on the ground."

Zhou Dong whispered the secret in Jack's heart, which made his face change suddenly, but Zhou Dong didn't care, just calmly playing a simple backgammon game with the little girl Ruth.

The atmosphere in the room was a little dull, because Duck was a stuffy gourd, and Ruth was also a person who didn't talk much, and Jack was originally more active and kept asking Zhou Dong questions, but after Zhou Dong broke a secret in his heart, the half-grown boy was like a squib with water and fire, and stopped talking.

After teasing Jack, Zhou Dong's body, which usually does not have a trace of superfluous movements, suddenly trembled slightly, and quietly and quickly made two moves in a row, defeating the stunned Ruth.

"Okay, get ready, we're going to the banquet, and then you two just have to let go of your stomachs and have a big meal."

Zhou Dong has never been too friendly to those "adults" with stereotyped mindsets, but he has always been more friendly to children with unlimited potential, just like now, he will take care of their personal emotions in action and language.

The sturdy carriage came outside, and the well-dressed "superior people" personally came to deliver the invitation and the carriage to take them to tonight's grand banquet in Earl Lane's Palace, Ruth was fine, but after washing, the face of the cute blonde girl showed simple expectation, obviously the full meal that Zhou Dong said had occupied most of her mind, but Jack was overwhelmed in his heart, surprised that Zhou Dong had obviously beaten the subordinates of Earl Lane's family, and they still came to invite people as guests so respectfully, could it be that their brains were burned out?

After all, he was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, no matter how clever Jack's nature was, he only vaguely felt all the things he knew, and felt that there must be some connection, and he noticed in his mind that a faint gray line was rising and falling brightly and darkly, but he didn't have enough experience and wisdom to pick up this gray line and see it clearly.

"Think about it, but don't get too sharp, there are some truths that you have to grow up to understand."

In the carriage, Zhou Dong touched the little boy's head affectionately, Jack wanted to hide but couldn't hide at all, so he could only sulk and not speak, but he couldn't say that he hated each other, because from his sister who never lied, he knew that it was actually Zhou Dong who came to his house in time to save Ruth, otherwise the two adults were still drinking at the time and insisted on breaking in to do bad things, even if he was there, it would be difficult to guarantee that he could completely protect his sister.
