Chapter Seventy-Four: Acquaintances at the Banquet

Looking at Tang Qi's shocked expression, the old man said: "Don't be surprised, you should know that the bachelor originated from the goblin technology that once had a glorious history in the magic era, and you must know that our source power system has developed so far, although it has proven to have more potential than magic, but it is still a young boy." ”

Tang Qi nodded in agreement, the old man was right, the source force system may be full of potential, but it is still very immature compared to the magicians who have been inherited for thousands of years and spread all over countless planes.

"So, do you think that relying on the steam engine goblins will be able to build a glorious kingdom in the Age of Magic? The old man laughed.

Of course not, Tang Qi thought for a while: "Legend has it that there were once magic lamps, goblin airships, magic trains and other items, could it be related to these?"

"Oh, you know that. The old man said in amazement, and his interest increased: "That's right, magic used to be an important part of goblin technology, but unfortunately the disappearance of magic power has caused goblin technology to die out completely. In the final analysis, the goblins still have not grasped the truth of the world, and the edifice of science and technology based on magic is just a bubble. ”

The old man sighed: "But it is not surprising that it is magic that blinds the eyes of the goblins, and they don't even know gravity, and they have established a glorious civilization." Until now, Goblin Technology still gives us a lot of inspiration, which makes the research of Source Force develop rapidly, and not long ago there was a new breakthrough. ”

I see, Tang Qi felt silent.

The old man smiled and said, "Young man, since you know what you want to know, don't bother me." As he spoke, he lowered his head and fiddled with the wooden plate in his hand.

Tang Qi looked at it curiously, and his expression couldn't help but become strange, the old man's wooden plate was Huarong Dao. Although Huarong Dao was blocked by the Winter family, it was still known by many people, and Huarong Dao, who was supposed to make an official appearance tonight, was about to become popular among the upper class.

The old man put the classic layout of the horizontal knife immediately, looking at his skillful movements, he seemed to have found the trick, and now he is trying to streamline the steps, and he has encountered a little problem.

"This situation can move knights, then counts and viscounts. Tang Qi said suddenly.

Although it was a slight hint, the old man's eyes lit up, and he quickly calculated a step, which was almost the same as the simplest step. Tang Qi couldn't help but admire, when he played by himself, he relied on rote memorization.

"Yes, you will also be Huarong Dao?"

"A little. Tang Qi took the wooden plate, put the horizontal knife on the table, and with a quick flick of his fingers, he took out the king in the simplest steps. looked at the old man and clapped his hands: "This is the simplest step, you don't know how to do it at all." ”

"There, there are multiple layouts of this Huarong Dao, and I will have several of them. Tang Qi said modestly, and soon put on a new layout, the old man's attention was attracted, and Huarong Dao was returned to the old man, and Tang Qi left the greenhouse quietly.

......

The dinner was held in the lobby on the first floor of the villa, lit by chandeliers, long tables filled with delicious food, and crowds of people singing and dancing. Such a banquet itself is an occasion for making contacts, so there are always many people around the nobles of noble status.

After Tang Qi entered the table, he saw Fuyana surrounded by the crowd, she looked impatient, but the people around her still enthusiastically leaned up. It's not a loss to the Winter family, everywhere is the object of people's pursuit, Tang Qi found a quiet place to sit down, looking for a bachelor in the hall.

"Friend, what are you looking at?"

At this time, a person suddenly sat down, clinked glasses with him and said: "Don't look at it, the women here want to make an appointment with a marquis or above, and they are very 'self-loving', we are hopeless, drink." ”

Self-familiar, Tang Qi turned his head to look at it, and was slightly stunned: "Is it you?" The young man in front of him wearing a pompous rose-colored dress with roses on his chest was one of the four people beside Hertis, looking at the medal he was wearing, he was a hereditary viscount.

"Just call me Fast, I'm curious about you, and then you quit abruptly, and you took a lot of fun out of the game. Fast said, turning his glass.

"Hettis didn't come?" Tang Qi wondered.

"The boss wanted to come, but in the past two days, the breakthrough in cultivation was a critical moment to storm the Source Palace, so he sent me. Fast poured wine for Tang Qi: "I guess the boss has been hit." ”

"A selection, is it necessary to care so much with his identity?" Tang Qi said the question that he had been wondering about for a long time, and there was nothing surprising that Herthis broke through the Source Palace, even if he was the same age as himself. A source point realm can resist the metamorphosis of the Source Palace, I'm afraid he would have been able to break through the Source Palace a long time ago, but he has been pressing and not breaking through.

Fast raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "This is related to a marriage contract, people require the boss to get the first, otherwise the marriage contract will be canceled, and it doesn't matter if you say it." ”

Tang Qi took a sip of wine quietly: "With whom?"

"The eldest lady of the Winter family. ”

Poof, Tang Qi squirted out a sip of red wine, how could it be Miss Thea!

Wait, since Hertis has to do with Thea, then why did Eve, a bum, want to stop Hertis from winning first, Tang Qi was suddenly stunned, thinking of Eve's accurate information about the finding task in the game, and an astonishing conjecture came to mind.

His gaze drifted to Fuyana in the distance.

How can it be......

"Don't you think it's a good marriage, but it was ruined by a woman. Fast seemed to be a chatter, and said endlessly: "But Natalie is really powerful, her appearance and figure are first-class, but her personality is a little colder, and I heard that she likes the eldest lady, and the relationship between the two is ambiguous......"

Tang Qi hurriedly stopped his topic, and there were people next to him who paid attention to them, and if he continued, he wouldn't want to walk out of the banquet tonight.

"I said who slandered Miss Shia, isn't this our horse knight, how did you sneak into the banquet, it seems that the gatekeepers should be hanged, and anyone can come in at will. Surrounded by everyone, Veneli, dressed in a black dress and full of jewelry, walked slowly.

As the heir of the Anred family, Veneli has a noble status, and many people around him. As soon as he spoke, the others immediately followed.

Veneli looked proud, hugged the woman beside him, looked at Tang Qi and sneered contemptuously: "You'd better get out of the banquet before I call the guards, otherwise the punishment will not be so simple." After speaking, he no longer looked at him, but turned to Fast and smiled: "Mr. Fast, 'Rose Shield', it's really rude to come to visit now, I hope you will forgive me, why don't we go to the side to talk, and by the way, I will introduce you to the nobles of the Southern Territory." ”

"After all, talking to a horse rider is detrimental to your reputation. As he spoke, the nobles around him laughed.

Hearing his words, Fast put down his wine glass, bowed his head politely, looked him directly into the eyes, and said lightly:

"You talk so much nonsense, I can take the liberty of asking. ”

"Who are you?"
