Before the dinner had even begun, Aldrich Triss teleported back to the Kirov airship for a short distance, and then slowly slid the container in the main cabin down to the Bluestone Castle by rappelling. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Ian McCallane took charge of the reception and ordered the castle guard to pry open the lid of the box, remove all the woolen coats from them, put them in new packaging, and store them in the family's medium-sized storage room for the time being.

Aldrich Triss, who had returned to the ground with a sigh of relief, walked into the storage room with him, dismissed all the idlers and others, made sure that there were no obstructive eyes around, and immediately untied the red socks with the pocket plane from his belt, and took out a steady stream of weapons and equipment from them.

Eighty gun cases, one hundred bullet cabinets, five hundred barrels of granulated gunpowder, ten boxes of flintlock replacement parts, two hundred bottles of leather armor strengthening potion, fifty tubes of anti-rust chemicals, two thousand bullet belts and gunpowder belts, and twenty boxes of other odds and ends, occupying fifty percent of the storage room.

With all this done, Aldrich Triss clapped his hands and walked out of the house, nodding lightly to Oakes McCallane.

The Earl immediately understood what was going on, and his heart was a little shaken, but he asked the second son to go and inspect it, and Ian McCallane was already prepared.

Therefore, when he came to the storeroom, he passed the narrow narrow passage specially reserved by the mountain of woolen coats piled up outside, saw the weapons and equipment promised by the regimental commander, and knew that his character would not be in short supply, so he hurriedly inspected it and prepared to leave.

"Wait, Mayne, stay in there a little longer, open the various chests, and at least leave traces of inspection. ”

A familiar voice sounded in Ian McCallane's ears, looking at Aldrich Triss standing at the door of the storeroom, his mouth slightly open, obviously not speaking, but he was able to compress his speech to a level that only he could hear.

Knowing that Captain Triss was completely well-intentioned, Ian McCallane knew that his actions were a bit out of the ordinary, and that he would inevitably cause his brother's displeasure.

The battle of the Benniu River suffered a fiasco in his life, and he almost squandered his love and funds, but fortunately, his father intervened in time, not only to protect himself from the punishment of the ring, but also to operate secretly, seeking a lucrative position for himself in the logistics department, which has made the eldest brother who has the right to inherit the throne very unhappy.

In disguise, he pried open a long wooden box with his sword, and took out a flintlock pistol from the debris covered with sawdust shavings to absorb shock and cushion.

The cyanotic walnut butt is extremely smooth and shiny, but when you reach out, it has a slightly rough grinding feeling. The cold steel body covered in black paint, although it has not been loaded with gunpowder or fired bullets, the cold and biting chill still penetrates the palm of the hand inexorably.

Ian McCallane shuddered, his eyes moved to the specially fitted tenons and grooves at the lower end of the muzzle, and suddenly remembered what Aldrich Triss had said, including the bayonet used for white-knuckle combat, and could not help but feel sincere appreciation for his carefulness.

Bullet cabinets, powder kegs, and briefcase-style potions boxes were opened one after another, and the delicate portable design made Ian McCallane's eyes light up.

It was enough time for him to leave the pantry with a heartfelt smile on his face, and walked briskly back to his father to report back to him in person.

The Earl of McCallane then ordered the close guards to seal it up and not allow anyone to approach it, and Aldrich Triss patted a stack of gold vouchers from the Temple of the Friends of the Merchant, ready to receive the McCallane family's wine collection after the dinner.

It was learned from a special source that a ban on alcohol had been issued within the West Turkish Customs Union, and this batch of red wine from the Principality of Maryland, worth 7,000 gold coins, would be sold on the black market at an opportune time, and the return would be at least doubled in a blink of an eye.

Entertaining Aldrich Triss from afar according to the specifications of the family banquet is a new dish he has developed, which makes the chief knight of the West Soil feel like he is at home.

Shrimp minced beef balls, bite through a hole, the hot fragrant hot oil in it billows out, the virtuous knight with iron teeth, copper teeth and silver tongue does not care, and the elastic beef taste makes him feel a lot.

The preparation time is only half an hour, and such an excellent dish can be prepared, the background of the McCarene family is really unfathomable, and it is commendable that he copied and improved the classic food of his previous life, and it was transmitted to the Principality of Maryland across thousands of mountains and rivers in less than a year.

"With the increasing wave of industrialization, there are more and more channels of circulation between people. The world is still so big, but the distance between strangers from all over the world is shrinking invisibly. ”

There were not many members of the McCallane family who attended the dinner, except for the Earl and Ian, all of whom were female dependents, tasting exotic delicacies, and many unmarried aristocratic girls stared at Aldrich Triss from time to time.

I learned the true identity of the only guest from a private source, even though I knew that he had a pregnant wife, didn't he have an official wedding yet?

Ian McCallane couldn't help but laugh as he watched his sisters stare at Aldrich Triss with prey eyes, but when he saw that his favorite sister had begun to join in, he finally couldn't help but use the tablecloth to disguise her and gently step on her instep.

However, his kindness was not reciprocated, but was glared at by his sister fiercely, and Ian McCallane thought that he had stepped on Eliza, which aroused her disgust, and sighed a little aggrieved and helpless.

The Count looked as if he had not seen what was happening at the feast, and this indulgent attitude emboldened the female dependents of the family at once.

Aldrich Triss has too many labels attached to his body, as a baron of real power who has branched into the master's house, a great knight with extraordinary strength, a newly rising rich man in the Westlands, a moderate abolitionist, the maker of the North Sea Peace Treaty, the holder of the high artifact Thunderhammer and the unorthodox heir, as well as bits and pieces of martial arts, glory and other honorific names ready to be added to the title of Grand Knight.

What's more important is his youth, he stepped on the peak of his life before he was thirty years old, and his future in the future is unlimited, only a stupid short-sighted woman will be reserved and dare not stretch out her hand, and the aristocratic girl with a little brain intends to climb this big tree.

As a knight of the Eight Virtues, Aldrich Triss was not like a strict ascetic who kept his respects from women, kept his body to a minimum with water and bread, spent spring, summer, autumn and winter in a coarse cloth robe, ploughed the fields with his hands, sowed vegetable seeds, and lived on his own feet, bartering for daily necessities, nor like the black knight who fell into the abyss of desire, chasing all the material and spiritual pleasures of the world, indulging in them and using them as a source to break through the bottlenecks that could not be crossed by talent.

Aldrich Triss's courtesy to the noble maidens in his vicinity, out of courtesy and courtesy, and with the demeanor of a knight, did not politely refuse, but this tolerant and peaceful attitude immediately aroused the ambition of the pretender.

The girls of the McCallane family who participated in the dinner, especially those who still kept their flower crowns, knew that their marriage was involuntary, and they didn't know when they would be packaged as gifts by the family and given to some old nobleman or pot-bellied magnates, so as to maintain the family's position and continue to be strong by marriage.

Even if he can't officially marry His Excellency Baron Aldrich Triss, it is not a way out to be his lover, the chief knight of the Western Lands, and more importantly, in just a few years, he has become a business upstart that ordinary people must look up to, with extremely large contacts, hidden forces, and social circles, and business partners even including the royal family members of the three North Sea countries, so it is no problem to become a multinational business tycoon in time.

Not only unmarried girls, but even noblewomen who already have husbands, when they take out their dressing mirrors to touch up their makeup, they want to rely on their bodies to bloom like flower buds in the first rain and dew, trying to catch Aldrich Triss's carriage.

The Earl of McCallane ignored it silently, probably thinking that there was a girl in the clan who could enter the eyes of the Virtuous Knight, and perhaps he could not tie Aldrich Triss to the family's chariot, but he was happy to see the relationship between the two sides deepened and went further.

Unfortunately, Aldrich Triss did not show any intention until the end of the dinner, and he kept his distance from each of the McCallane maidens, but did not disappoint them.

If he didn't know who he was, he definitely didn't look like some moon knight who was born as a nobleman in the court, saved the world with love, and wielded a club, and the count began to worry about whether Aldrich Tris was going to abduct all the girls in his clan - he had an armored float ship, and he could do this.

Although the Pillar of Love's allegiance did not have to stick to Lowett alone after being promoted to Grand Knight, Aldrich Triss kept his original promise.

However, when he noticed the outline of his friend's sister, Eliza McCallane, who had seven points of imagination with his girlfriend in his previous life, he shed every tear of happiness for her in the past, and finally rippled in the calm and waveless heart lake.

"The old impressions that have passed away quietly make me pick up the fragments of memories, which are the remnants of adapting to the life after the time travel, and compensating for the psychological blankness in terms of emotions. It's a kind betrayal of the person you once loved, and it's completely unfair to the girl in front of you. ”

The fleeting outpouring of emotion quickly disappeared into the corner of his eyes, and even the experienced Oakes McCallane did not notice it—Aldrich would not have known if he did not want him to know, and if the Count knew, it must have been Triss who had deliberately let him know.

Keep everyone close but far enough away not to provoke the Maiden of the McCallane family, lest the relationship between them be distorted.

After the dinner, when the Count had business to do, Aldrich Triss politely refused Ian McCallane's invitation, and raised the golden heroic banner behind him, freed himself from the shackles of the earth, and returned to the Kirov airship like an arrow from the string.

The maidens and ladies who had not yet gone away fixed their eyes on Aldrich Triss, who seemed to have come from an epic legend, and invariably turned their eyes to Ian McCallane.

The second son of the McCallane family, who commanded Ruoding in the Battle of the Bull River, not only admired the ease of his friend's departure, but also felt inexplicably worried about the dozens of eyes around him that hunted prey like a bloodthirsty lioness.

Eliza, the sister of her own sister, was the first to make a move, stood on tiptoe and pinched Ian's ear, pulled him in front of her, wanted to say something embarrassing, and when she saw the unkind eyes of her sisters, she also felt great pressure and couldn't help but let go of her hand.

Ian McCallane had just breathed a sigh of relief, rubbing his reddened ears, and soon there were more than a dozen tugs of pulling force in different directions on his body.

"It's worse! worse than I expected. ”

The eldest son of the McCallane family, who appeared in the master's study at some point, quietly walked up to his father, and the earl raised his eyelids to look at the heir who had received the summons and immediately left to rush home.

"What do you think of the friendship between the Chief Knight of the Western Soil and Ian?"

Isaac McClaine smiled lightly, "If I hadn't seen His Excellency Baron Triss show the abilities of a knight lord, I would have been a little worried that he would want to climb the family tree, and I wouldn't think about it at all now." ”

"Father, he was promoted to knight lord before the age of thirty, and is expected to become a legend in the near future, no matter who can create a century-old family that cannot stand, as long as Aldrich Triss does not die halfway, three hundred years of long life, many small countries that survive in the cracks of the great powers do not have such a long national life. ”

As for the friendship between him and his younger brother, it is estimated that it is the battlefield friendship that he met and precipitated when the Temple of Friends of Shang Jia formed the Knights, but the lucky gold coin was tacitly dismantled to pieces by the high-level leaders of various countries, and it can no longer be reassembled, so there is no need to worry about resurgence. ”

"As far as I know, Aldrich Triss's relationship with the temple is more about being wary of each other, like two hedgehogs approaching each other for warmth, keeping a proper distance but not wanting to hurt each other. ”

Earl McCallane nodded lightly in satisfaction, "It seems that it is a good move to arrange for you to enter the sixth division of the Army Intelligence Agency, and exposure to foreign intelligence will help expand your international horizons, but most of our energy is focused on those slave owners in the south, and Aldrich Triss is just an unexpected gain...... Well, the moderate abolitionist in him, perhaps, can be exploited a little. ”

Isaac McCallane took a step forward and leaned forward slightly, "Father, the steel tribe of the orcs needs food, herbs, and daily necessities, do you want to find a chance to get in touch?"

The Earl shook his head slightly, but did not veto: "It can't be the McCallane family! ”

"It's a joke that the sons of the beasts from the Black Continent are just asking for equality! ”

Isaac McCallane immediately advised, "Father, the spirit totems unique to the steel tribe of the orcs, as well as the rune system of the earth shaman, are of very high value. The deal was good for both sides, and I thought we could make good use of Aldrich Triss's reputation as an abolitionist. ”

"Do you have any plans?

The object of the conversation between the two quietly appeared in the corner of the study, and the Earl of McCallane stood up suddenly, and his burly body instantly gushed out the aura of a beast like a lion, and when he saw the golden lines on the face of the Virtue Knight, like a lion's head, he immediately forcibly restrained and suppressed his anger.

Isaac McCallane was much inferior, panicked by the revelation of his secrets, and didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Facing a knight lord with Thor's hammer, even if he is now at the peak of his strength, it is a pity that he is not a great knight, and I am afraid that he is not his opponent in one move.

However, he quickly felt that the other party had no malicious intent, suppressed his emotions, and returned to his usual calm: "The orcs follow the challenge of advocating the power of primitive wildness, and there is a traditional duel ritual, until the death of the rest of the Makgora!"

"A warrior who can challenge the orcs and walk off the dueling arena alive is qualified to be a guest of the Iron Tribe, a distinguished guest!"

"Hmm!" Aldrich Triss smiled inexplicably, "interesting!"
