Chapter 156: It's hard to suppress the killing intent

Almost all the people the monk wanted to see were in the ball, Hui Gang gently adjusted his body shape, and floated down in the courtyard at the entrance of the ball, where he landed there was a guard in plain clothes, obviously to cooperate with the holding of the ball, and he was also dressed very gorgeously.

Hui Gang had already judged in mid-air that if he overturned this guard, it would alarm the three armed knights nearby. And the lookout post on the bell tower.

Of course, he would not make such a mistake, and the guard standing there was obviously not preoccupied with his own work, staring at the ball not far away, where the most basic entertainment in aristocratic life was the regular hunting and field parties and balls.

The ball is an excellent place for young men and women to bond with each other, for the aristocratic forces to communicate with each other, for the wild bees and butterflies to seduce each other, and for the collusion and struggle of various factions.

With the sound of music, delicious food and wine, and the warmth of the ball hall, such an event is much stronger than a hunt in the wind and rain, and it is naturally the most held event.

However, it was often held by royalty and nobility, even commoners, and the position of the guard was a hidden position to monitor a path leading from the ball hall to the inner palace.

According to the strict security here, in fact, the sentry position here is dispensable, but the royal guards must not let go of any possible danger.

The guard heard that someone seemed to be walking towards him behind him, and thought that it was some nobleman who had drunk too much and couldn't find a convenient place, so he reluctantly took back his attention from the music of the ball, and was about to say a few words, this is a forbidden place, please go elsewhere.

A young man dressed plainly to the point of being a little tattered was seen standing behind him, smiling gently. The guard didn't even have time to be shocked before he was knocked unconscious by the monk's fingers.

Those people on the side didn't know anything about this, this was also because the monk's speed was too fast, and when the guard froze in place, the rather gorgeous clothes on his body were stripped off, and in an instant, the monk was already dangling in front of the door of the ball, and when he jumped in the air, he had noticed the activities of these sentry posts.

There are a few people who look like attendants at the gate of the ball, obviously the strict guards on the periphery, and when they get to the place where dignitaries and dignitaries enter and exit here, there is no need to be so strict, not to mention that it is now a peaceful world, and there are many outstanding powerhouses of the Drew Empire in the crowd attending the ball.

The attendants standing at the door were full of resentment in their hearts, and served their companions in the hall. You can see beautiful ladies, secretly eating and drinking food and wine, but a few of them are more sulky, especially in the cold wind of early winter.

There are no more customers coming and going in front of the door, listening to the laughter and melodious music inside. There was also the smell of food and wine that came and went, making them more and more anxious, but they had to be patient.

The attendant standing at the front saw a secret sentry standing on the side come out, and immediately found a way to vent. was just about to shout and scold, but suddenly felt a flower in front of him.

The figure had disappeared, and the attendant rubbed his eyes, not daring to say this to his companions, of course, in the cold wind outside, no one would notice if there was an occasional breeze blowing.

Hui Gang was at the door, so close. There is no place to run with strength, but in an instant, the monk's speed has been raised to an extremely high level.

Standing on the edge of the dance floor, the monk stopped lightly, he looked at himself in disbelief, faster than what kind of realm this must be.

Unlike the heavy guards on the periphery of the entire palace, it was obviously tight on the outside and loose on the inside, and if the samurai, magicians, and various magic devices outside were around this ornately decorated dance floor, then I am afraid that these guests would regard this as a trap rather than a party.

Among the nobles, civil officials and clergy of the Drew Empire who participated in this ball, they all wore elegant and generous dresses, although elegant, but also extremely gorgeous. The ladies and ladies are even more violent, competing to show their beauty and family wealth.

However, the military attachés and the priests of the Temple of the God of War are more traditional and relatively simple. The monk saw the Marquis of Omok and his son Simon in the crowd, both of them dressed simply, and they didn't look much different from the outfits of the guards outside.

The recovered monk was much more sober, and when he was over the palace like a big bird, he saw that the officers attending the ball were dressed very similarly to the guards outside.

In fact, the clothes on the monk are the most ordinary knights in Drew's army, and the knights here do not refer to their profession, but to their class. The first class of noble children is often knighthood, and these knights constitute the largest noble class in the entire Drew Empire.

Moreover, in the administrative regions, the noble knights were often required to serve the largest local lord, and of course, in the Drew Empire, which maintained a standing army, this service often became a ceremonial obligation, such as guarding the palace.

The same regular sergeants were dressed in the same costume as these noble knights, and as soon as Hui Gang entered, several secret guards in the crowd noticed him.

Hui Gang didn't look out of the ordinary, he was wearing a very ordinary knight's dress, and he couldn't tell that he had a fighting spirit or magic power. The guards in charge of internal security quickly lost interest in this man.

However, those who were whispering on the benches on the periphery, or chatting or flirting with those who were living in communicating politics all glanced at the monk, although Huigang was not sharp now, but he seemed to have an innate noble temperament, which was a faint reserve.

The gentle and modest Hui Gang is a strong martial artist, and the combination of this introverted character and martial arts flamboyance has a strange charm. In the eyes of these people now, it naturally seems that they are outstanding children cultivated by the kind of family with a long history and high power.

The well-trained royal attendant quickly brought champagne and red wine to the monk, a newcomer, and Hui Gang reached out to take a glass in order to cover up, smiled and nodded at the other party as a thank you.

The waiter was obviously stunned, I don't know how many noble guests had been served drinks and food this night, but it was the first one to express his gratitude, the waiter bowed slightly, bowed his head and retreated. The monk's move looked like the people around him, some of them showed a look of contempt in their eyes, while others were thoughtful, but their evaluation of the monk was much higher in their hearts.

Hui Gang didn't notice these people's attention to him at all, he took the wine and calmly walked to an unnoticed place to look at these people in the field.

Since it was a grand gathering held by the royal family, the center of the gathering was naturally the emperor's family, and in the unpredictable hall, there was obviously an area vacated, where dozens of samurai in bright armor guarded there, and the Drew Emperor Lindley V sat there, obviously aging compared to before, and it was only a few months old, and it changed from the healthy and strong at that time to the appearance of the current one.

He could see that he was accompanied by several people who were clearly nobles, including the Archbishop of Bocuse, whom he had seen earlier in the Muni Cathedral.

Under the head of the emperor, who was obviously in poor spirits, the two princes sat there, but the circumstances were very different, and the prince of Kesen was surrounded by all kinds of nobles with smiling and flattering expressions, as well as many noble ladies who scratched their heads and made gestures, and even some noblewomen.

The cardinals of the Church of Light also sat there, faintly forming a circle, the Church of Light, the eldest prince, Prince Kesen, and the noble officials who tended to be inflammatory.

As for the position farther away from the emperor, the second prince Fanst, his position was much more deserted, with only a few officers and senior priests of the God of War Temple around him,

The eldest prince's face was full of spring breeze, and he pretended to be modest and talked around those around him. The second prince, Fanst, forced a laugh. From here, it can be seen that perhaps there is no suspense in the battle for the throne.

But Hui Gang didn't pay attention to this power struggle, seeing those people from the royal family and the Church of Light sitting there with different expressions, a surging anger rushed straight to the top of his head, and the former monks could always deal with it calmly no matter what the situation was. But now it's a bit out of control.

In order to hide his gaffe, the monk lowered his head, looked at the red wine in the glass in his hand, and found that the red color seemed to be blood flowing out.

The strength in his hand gradually became uncontrollable, but Hui Gang did not dare to move, and beside the Drew Emperor Lindley V, there was the raunchy middle-aged swordsman Blunt, who was talking affectionately with the Thorne Archmage on the side. Archbishop Bocuse is just below.

The difference in strength was placed there, but the monk who had always been calm could no longer control his emotions, and the breath on his body was suddenly released, and those people around him suddenly felt a trace of coolness in their hearts, it was already winter at this time, and the climate of the entire Eamon Continent was quite similar to the north where the monk was located in the previous life.
