……
Seeing this, Rayong turned around and gestured slightly, and the four attendants rushed out, each holding two trays in their hands, covered with red cloths, and a chill came from the trays.
Gary's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at the trays with some curiosity, but he didn't say anything like looking at them. After all, he received a systematic royal education, and he couldn't do such an impolite thing.
With Gary's help, all the trays were properly placed in the freezer and ready to be transported together to the banquet. Under Gary's repeated instructions, the personnel transporting the ingredients raised 120,000 degrees of vigilance, for fear that something would go wrong.
"Please." Gary turned sideways and let Rayong go first.
Probably Caloster instructed that even if Rayong was only one person, Gary didn't look like he wanted to ride with him, and after Rayong was seated, he got into another car.
The team moved at a fast pace, but there was not the slightest jolt in the airship.
Rayong looked at the familiar airship, and couldn't help but call up the operating system and look at it. The airship was not piloted. Instead, the route has already been set, and the light brain is automated, compared to the flying car on the green starfish. I don't know how high-end it is.
However, after all, it is a vehicle-mounted optical brain, which is still at the level of a miniature optical brain, and its use is limited. For Huaxia, only large light brains are valuable.
Pressing his mind, Rayong closed his eyes in the car and adjusted his mentality little by little.
This reception feast. Almost all the upper echelons of the Marfa Empire will be present, and he must not show a flaw, otherwise not only the people who come to the Marfa Empire with him will suffer. Even parents on Earth, and even the whole of China, may be implicated.
This move is tantamount to walking a tightrope, and now the arrow is on the bow. He has to give it his all.
Thinking back to when he was promoted to the Qi Accumulation Period. The senior who had been seen through the silk book, Luo Yong's breath flowed, and his temperament approached the man little by little.
"Your Excellency, it's here."
Gary's voice came to Rayong's ears.
"Hmm." Rayong was stunned, and then slowly opened his eyes.
Gary next to him was slightly stunned, feeling that this adult seemed to be more majestic than before, and even his eyes were a little sharper. Was it his delusion?
Rayong stepped out of the airship in one step, and his body was naturally straight. A noble and mysterious temperament is naturally generated, compared to the pretense when leaving the Shunlong. This time, the temperament is more natural, and there is almost no flaw.
Seeing Gary stunned, Rayong shook his sleeves, leaving a cyan light mark, and naturally spoke, his voice was completely flat: "Lead the way." ”
"Oh." Gary came back to his senses and hurriedly led the way in front, as if he regarded himself as a follower.
Although there was still some time before the banquet began, there were many people who came early, and the expression on his face was quite wonderful when he saw this scene.
……
The banquet hall is a side hall in the Imperial Palace, which used to be used only for state banquets, but now it is bustling with people because of the arrival of one person.
Brilliant golden light poured from the overhead lamp, fell on the wide hall, and fell on the people who came and went, causing patches of metal reflection.
The flame pattern on the silver metal cylinder flows with magnificent color, as if it is about to leap out of the cylinder and burst into a brilliant light.
In the corners around the hall, gorgeous and comfortable tables and chairs are placed, and dozens of people gather together, sitting or standing, with different looks.
These people have different identities, but all of them are concentrated, and they are undoubtedly the core of power in the Marfa Empire. At this moment, the person who was surrounded in the center of the crowd was the head of the three most powerful families in the Marfa Empire except for the royal family.
Sitting in the center was a tall, serious-looking middle-aged man, who felt like he stood out even among the people of the Marfa Empire, who were generally tall and strong. The rare short black hair was draped diagonally, covering half of the eyebrows, slightly softening the serious expression on his face.
He was the patriarch of the Hart family, Rowan. Hart is also the most powerful figure among the three families for the time being.
Rowan. Hart raised his eyes and swept over the people around him, and his voice was solemn: "Gavin. Robbins, Nicholas. Kelsen, what are the ideas, can always be said now. ”
"The nobles of the intermediate civilization suddenly came, our majesty has such a warm attitude, and even the palace has been cleaned up, what is the idea, you will not be unclear."
Anthony. Robbins is the patriarch of the Robbins family, a muscular man with horizontal development, and now that he is named, he can't help but grin, but this smile is a little weird no matter how you look at it.
Rowan. Hart was silent for a long time when he heard this, and then said slowly: "The Marfa Empire has been trapped in a third-level civilization for nearly a thousand years, and it would naturally be great if you could take this opportunity to get the opportunity to break through the civilization level." ”
"Heh~ There must be a limit to self-deception, where is space technology so easy to master? What's more, the Zheluo Empire itself is also a fourth-level civilization, where can we allow us to advance successfully and compete with them for resources? ”
In a dark corner, an eerie voice suddenly spoke, and there was mockery in its tone.
Rowan. Hart turned his head and looked at the red hair in the shadows, his brows were slightly locked, and his already serious expression now seemed to have added a dark cloud.
Suddenly, he looked at Anthony again. Robbins glanced at it and said, "So it seems that the two of you don't agree with His Majesty's plan?" ”
"It's not that I disagree. It's just that since he enjoys such a high salary, he has to come up with something. It's not just space technology that we're missing. ”
The grim voice spoke again, and there seemed to be little respect for the intermediate civilization in his tone.
"That's a good point. Mineral resources can be plundered from lower civilizations. However, there are many flaws and hidden dangers in our cultivation methods, and it is difficult to be promoted after reaching the second level. If this cannot be solved, even if space technology is cracked. We can't become a fourth-level civilization. "Muscle man Anthony. Robbins gritted his teeth, and it was about to become his heart disease.
"I don't believe he doesn't have a cultivation method on him. His strength is only level two, let's go all out, I don't believe we can't keep him! The grim voice spoke again, but there was a sinister tone in it.
"Nicholas. Kelsen! "Rowan. Hart frowned again, his face sinking as the bottom of a pot, and warned in a cold voice. "I know you've suffered a big loss at the hands of an intermediate civilization, but this person is not your enemy! If something happens to him in the Marfa Empire, the entire empire will be implicated! You'd better settle the equinox! ”
"Heh~" is called Nicholas. Kelsen's redhead man. At last he sat up a little straighter, showed a pale face, and said mockingly, "I'm just talking." He's a viscount. Not civilians. I don't have the courage to do that. ”
Rowan. Hart looked at him coldly. I didn't fully believe his words.
"Okay, Rowan, we're not children anymore, and there's still some sense of proportion. What do you mean? "Anthony. Robbins calmed down and buffered the atmosphere.
Rowan. Hart glanced at him, his face softened slightly, and after a long time, he suddenly sighed. said, "I see." ”
Subsequently, no matter how the two retained. Rowan. Hart left with the people anyway. He used to be very tall, but now, somehow, it seems to be a little shorter.
Rowan. After Hart left, Anthony and Nicholas were relieved and had a great conversation.
After a while, there was music in the hall, and the hall gradually became quiet, and there was less talking and moving.
On the golden steps in the middle of the hall, suddenly a bright red figure slowly descended, the bright red coat was wide open, revealing the golden robe inside, the muscles on the body were knotted, and the physique was majestic, even if the person was nearly middle-aged, he still looked arrogant.
The man's open-clothed dress was said to be inconsistent with the rules of etiquette, but the people present seemed to be accustomed to it, and none of them raised any objections. Because, this person is the emperor of the Marfa Empire, Victor. Heckles, the nineteenth patriarch of the Heckles family.
In the Marfa Empire, red was the exclusive color of the royal family, and even nobles were not allowed to wear red clothes. The graphic of the red flame on the gold background is the family emblem of the Heckles family and the national emblem of the Marfa Empire.
As Emperor Victor descended the stairs, the hall was suddenly silent, and even Anthony and Nicholas, who were still whispering just now, stood up solemnly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I can't wait to meet our guests. Next, I would like to invite the viscount from the Jerro Empire, Alan. Lord Lucas! Victor's voice was calm and deep, and it was quite deafening.
As soon as the words fell, everyone's attention, following Victor's gestures, naturally looked towards the top of the stairs.
A blue figure walked down the stairs, the blue light slowly fluctuated with the footsteps, in the bright color of the room, this cyan, like a flowing spring, actually made people feel refreshed.
The brilliant blonde hair hung softly over the shoulders, and the blonde hair on the top of the head was pulled up diagonally, held in place by a vine-like bundle of hair, and the rich green seemed to drip water, making the blonde hair even brighter and smoother. The translucent mask covered the upper half of his face, making Rayong's breath, which should have been soft, a little cold and hard.
Because of participating in the banquet, Luo Yong did not wear a magic staff, but the momentum of his whole body did not decrease at all, but faintly improved a little.
Everyone was stunned, even those who had seen Rayong before felt shocked. It was only after one night that Rayong's temperament seemed to have a subtle difference.
"Lord Lucas, you are the protagonist of today, why don't you say a few words first?" Emperor Victor spoke seemingly casually.
Rayong stopped on the last step, his ink-colored eyes glowed, and he glanced at Victor with deep meaning, and then slowly glanced around, looking at the different expressions on the faces of the ministers of the Marfa Empire below, and his mood was a little subtle and indescribable for a while.
