Chapter 766: This 'Dumas' is not Dumas!
The Rus' were the richest families in the Lateran Empire, and one of the oldest.
At the helm, Yard. Ross is wise and discerning. Originally, he learned that his youngest daughter had taken in an Oriental prisoner as a servant, and he didn't care. Although the youngest daughter Haiweier is rude and willful, she inherits his excellent genes and looks at people very accurately, and there must be a reason for what she does.
As a father, he was generous and tolerant, and rarely interfered with the decisions of his two daughters. However, after learning that the youngest daughter transferred a large number of elixirs from the medicine garden and gave them to Hu Cong to improve her strength. He finally couldn't help himself and asked about the specific situation.
After learning about the cause and effect, Yard became very interested in this servant named House.
A little elixir is nothing to the Ross family. However, an Oriental with a strange background and a perverted body is very likely to become a hidden danger if he does not figure out the details.
Because of this, when the youngest daughter Havier begged her cousin Wren to strengthen the slave ring for her servant, Yard took the opportunity to invite her cousin Wren to the manor and enter the villa early to watch this unique test.
As a result, not only him, but also his cousin Wren was also shocked by the perverted body of the Oriental.
This servant has infinite potential, and if he is driven, he will become a great help to the Ross family. On the contrary, if you have bad intentions, it will become a great disaster.
After discussion, the two bigwigs decided that Wren would take action and put a lock on the Oriental.
The lock god buckle is from the first alchemy master of the Lateran Empire, Fast. It is made of a variety of rare metals and blended with the top alchemy magic of the West. As the name suggests, this lock god clasp is extremely imprisoning and controllable, even if it exists at the peak of the Holy Domain, it is difficult to escape the control of this alchemy magic tool.
It is not easy to refine the lock god buckle. So far, there are only three pieces in the entire Magic Guild. Wren had one, and the remaining two were all in Fast's hands. This empire's first alchemy master also has another identity, which is the vice president of the Magic Guild and Wren's friend and deputy.
Take out a priceless magic device. used to imprison and control a small servant, it can be seen how much they value the Oriental man 'House'!
"Little girl, your subordinate is very eccentric, and my uncle made him suffer a little...... It's also for your sake! "Faced with my niece's pleading. Wren smiled and spoke his mind.
House fainted...... Uncle, it's time for you to stop! "Hevier is not a fool, otherwise she would not beg her uncle. Reinforcement of the slave ring. She understood her uncle's intentions, but when she saw 'House' fainting on the grass with her head covered in blood, she was very distressed, and she repeatedly pleaded, but it was enough to stop.
Wren smiled, raised the crystal ball in his hand and shook it. Li Ba, who was lying on the grass dozens of meters away, immediately felt the golden hoop on his forehead. Begin to relax gradually.
It's not easy!
Able to break through his physical defenses, this magic is powerful. Obvious. However, he knew in his heart that this magic tool could cause him some damage, but if he wanted to strangle his skull and kill him, he couldn't do it.
"Little girl. Put away this crystal ball, it's the center of the lock! ”
Wren handed the crystal ball to Hevier, and told her how to use it in detail, "If you don't listen to the command in the future, you can directly drive the lock god buckle...... If he is rebellious. Little girl, don't be soft-hearted, just crush the crystal ball and take his life! ”
Facing her uncle's admonition, Hai Weier nodded straight.
"Hevier, with your uncle's lock, from today onwards, you can rest assured that you can boldly cultivate him!"
Yard looked at the grass lying in the distance, motionless from 'House', smiled and said, "Whatever resources he needs, you give them to him...... The premise is that to see the effect, the family resources cannot be wasted! ”
"Yes, Father!" Hywiel nodded. Of course, she knew that her father was looking at House's potential when he said that.
Solve the trouble for her daughter, or in other words, erase the potential hidden dangers for the Ross family. Yard didn't linger any longer, beckoned his cousin, and the two left the garden villa.
They have more important things to discuss.
The remaining Haiweier sisters, as well as Fu Xiaodong and a group of guard warriors, all eyes were on Li Ba, who was not far away, still lying motionless on the grass.
When the boss had an accident, Fu Xiaodong was so anxious that he almost couldn't help but come to the rescue. Of course, fortunately he didn't do it, otherwise, not only would his life be in danger, but he would also be affected by Li Ba, who worked hard to act.
Later, it was learned that the Ross family had no murderous intentions towards the boss. Fu Xiaodong also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, when Havier ran over to check. He also walked briskly. Heidith was surprised, but didn't think much of it, and followed.
"House! House......"
Hyver arrived, and while applying medicine to Hu's 'House', she treated the wound on her forehead. While shaking his body, he shouted loudly.
It's almost time to wake up!
Li Ba opened his eyes in a daze, looked at Hai Weier blankly, and said with trembling lips: "Angel? Am I dead...... he trembled his hand and touched Hevel's delicate face, as if she had symptoms of auditory and visual hallucinations.
"House, you're not dead, don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one will hurt you." Hyvier's kind words comforted. even tolerated Li Ba's hand and touched her face a few times.
There is no way, she has high hopes for this personal servant, and she must find a way to smooth the shadow in the other party's heart.
Little girl, tell lies...... Tsk, this little face is quite smooth!
Li Ba slandered in his heart. With a little sobriety on his face, he looked at Hevier, as if he had seen a relative, he sat up suddenly, hugged his hostess and cried: "Miss, my life is so bitter......"
"It's okay, it's okay." Seeing his 'heartbroken' appearance, Hevier tried her best to comfort him. I secretly complained in my heart that my uncle had just shot too hard, which made House almost have a nervous breakdown.
With the mentality of 'having a cheap and not taking advantage of the bastard'. Li Ba hugged the hostess, looked at the other party's plump and snow-white chest, and was ready to take the opportunity to 'make a move'. He saw Hetis coming, and then dismissed the idea.
My sister is more mature than my sister, so don't just come out of the wolf's claws to avoid overacting.
Li Ba let go of Hevier and sobbed and made a request, "Miss." Change my name. ”
"Why?" Hevelle was stunned.
Li Ba touched the golden hoop on his forehead, sighed and said: "There is this thing covered, you give another iron rod, if the small one is not renamed Wukong, I can't live this shape!" ”
…………
The name change is a complaint. But Heville listened to it and thought about it very seriously. Make a decision.
There is no need to change the name, she can give Li Ba a surname.
In the Lateran Empire, the biggest difference between nobles and commoners was not wealth, but surnames. Commoners can only have a name, not a surname. This is the law of the Empire, and there is a clear hierarchy.
A prisoner-slave like Li Ba can be powerful but have no status. No matter how well it mixes, it is difficult to integrate into the aristocratic circle. Or rather, the inability to be a real nobleman.
However, after being given the surname by the hostess Helver, the situation was immediately different. In the future, as long as he does a good job, the master is happy, gives wealth, and is free to go, he can spread his branches. Form your own family.
Of course, his family would become vassals of the Rus. But also belonged to the aristocracy.
In the Roman capital, many of these vassal nobles were born through the surname given by the lord.
Aristocrats and commoners, a privileged class, a toiling masses at the bottom. Status status, so to speak. It's like a cloud.
In the capital, how many commoners dreamed of climbing to the nobility and obtaining this honor, they couldn't ask for it. Now, Li Ba easily has an exclusive surname.
Know the cause and effect. Li Ba understood that this was Hevier's seeing that he had committed a big crime before, and made amends in disguise. In his heart, he didn't think so, and verbally, he showed that he was very grateful.
The surname can be taken by oneself and given by the owner.
Li Ba didn't think much about it, and directly took 'Alexandre Dumas' as his surname. After hearing this, Hevier nodded in appreciation. In her opinion, with the surname of the great modern writer in the West, she is very cultivated and very good.
This 'Dumas' is not another Dumas!
In Li Ba's heart, House's name and Dumas's surname fit perfectly and are a perfect match.
There were some skin injuries on the forehead, which healed quickly after applying the medicine. Hai Weier told Li Ba to go back to recuperate quickly. Tomorrow at noon, she will take Li Ba to a very important party.
Fu Xiaodong took advantage of deepening the etiquette of the 'House' aristocracy and sent Li Ba back to his residence. When he closed the courtyard door, he immediately lowered his voice and asked, "Boss, are you okay?" ”
"Go in and talk!"
Li Ba greeted Fu Xiaodong and walked directly into the bedroom. After that, he glanced at Fu Xiaodong, who understood, but didn't see any movement, and a faint golden light filled the room.
Li Ba immediately stretched out his right hand, his five fingers lingering in the glazed luster, and grabbed the golden hoop on his forehead.
The natal talisman is restored, the yuan power is abundant, and it can also increase its strength without the help of any talismans. Under the shroud of Fu Xiaodong's power, even if someone detects it, they will not be aware of his use of Yuan Force.
The golden hoop was troublesome, but Li Ba didn't want to destroy it. He just wanted to test it now, how hard the golden hoop was.
Grab the edge of the hoop, or pinch. Five fingers touch, it feels smooth and hard. With the gradual increase of strength, the glazed light became stronger and stronger, and the golden hoop was still strong, without the slightest sign of damage.
Li Ba continued to increase his strength while feeling it.
Fu Xiaodong stood beside him, his face full of concern. It wasn't until Li Ba stopped that he asked, "Boss, can you untie it?" ”
Li Ba shook his head: "Not at the moment!" "He had already tried just now, even if the physical strength and the Yuan Force were fused, he would not be able to shake this golden hoop.
Even if you borrow a talisman, it's hard to say. Unless the rune is restored and the dragon power is blessed, there is confidence to destroy it.
"It's weird...... However, with it, the Ross family is no longer suspicious of Lao Tzu, and it will be much easier for us to act in the future! ”
Li Ba laughed. In the current situation, he has no intention of breaking away from the Ross family, he has his back against the big tree to enjoy the shade, and he can have the opportunity to recover himself with the help of the Ross family's huge financial resources, how can he let it go.
Fu Xiaodong is a smart person. Of course, I know what the boss thinks.
"Xiaodong, do you know where Heville is going to take me tomorrow?" Let's get back to the point. Li Ba asked Fu Xiaodong. The other party is an old pole, and he should know the situation of the little girl.
Fu Xiaodong thought for a while and said, "If it's a good estimate, it should be the Tulip Club!" ”
"What are you doing at the clubhouse? Open a room, huh? I don't do it! After Li Ba heard this, he put on a posture of 'I'm not a casual person'.
"Boss, you're mistaken!"
Of course, Fu Xiaodong knew he was joking. After that, he told him about Hevier's intention of taking him to the tulip club.
The tulip club is located in the south of the city, an exclusive entertainment venue for the aristocracy, although the pattern is not the largest, but it is the most luxurious, and the threshold is extremely high.
There are seven ranks of Western aristocracy, which are duke, marquis, earl, son, male, knight, and brigadier. The rules of the tulip club, the minor nobles below the baron, even if they spend more money, are not qualified to enter.
Not to mention ordinary civilians!
The identity of the owner of this club is even more unusual, and he is very young, so the people who come for leisure and entertainment are basically a group of young nobles in the capital.
Hywiel is a regular customer.
"There are a lot of entertainment items in the Tulip Club, and the most popular is gladiatorial fighting!"
Fu Xiaodong said this, his tone paused, and continued: "Different from Gorosei, the gladiatorial battle in the Tulip Club, the contestants are all the personal servants of various nobles! ”
This stinky girl!
Hearing this, Li Ba didn't have to think about it to know the intention of Hevier to take her to the Tulip Club.
Fu Xiaodong smiled slightly, and said: "The competition between Hu and Cong is not as bloody as Gorosai. Under normal circumstances, there is no danger to life...... Before the game, both sides will come up with the corresponding lottery! ”
The young nobles who are qualified to enter the Tulip Club are all children of big families with heads and faces in the Lateran Empire, and it is conceivable that they are very generous. Some people who have a bad relationship on weekdays, when they meet, they can't wait to gamble with their whole wealth.
Hywiel has such a sworn enemy. The other party's name is Julia, and she is from the Eamon family. This family is also one of the few ancient big families in the West, and its financial resources may not be as good as that of the Ross family, but it is more powerful.
Phalle, lord of the Roman capital. Emmon is from this big family. And, he is also Julia's own uncle.
Therefore, no matter what aspect it is, Julia is not slightly weaker than Hevier, and the two of them don't like each other, and they die when they meet.
As a child of a large family, a hereditary nobleman. Neither Hevier nor Julia will personally challenge each other. In this case, there is a risk of strife between families. The elders don't allow it, and they won't do it.
Therefore, gambling becomes the best means to fight a sworn enemy.
It's just that, judging from the previous confrontation records, Hywier is at an absolute disadvantage. She didn't follow earlier, and almost all of her close guards played. Except for Jenner, who won once, the rest ended in a fiasco.
Losing money is a trivial matter, and you can't afford to lose face.
The rules are very strict, and they are not allowed to use magical abilities, relying on physical strength and fighting skills. After losing several games in a row, Helvier was angry and vowed to cultivate one of the strongest servants, sweep the Tulip Club, win all the belongings of her rivals, and be ashamed.
Hearing this, Li Ba finally understood the reason why the hostess Hai Weier chose him to be her personal servant. (To be continued.) )
PS: I stayed up late for the first two days, and I couldn't bear it, but I'll change it today, and I'll think about it by the way, and the follow-up plot ...... (Reply to the bookworm, it is currently the recovery period of the bald head, it may be a little dull, and it will enter the high-tide later, thank you for your support...... )
