In the original situation, Feng Longde also thought that after half a month of cross-border mutation, it was likely that he would be greeted by the first battle with the human army. But what no one expected was that he was greeted by a maid standing outside the camp area.

That's right, a short, silver-white haired maid with a pocket watch and an armed belt with a silver knife hanging from the base of her left thigh, standing quietly just a step away from the guard range of the knights.

"Mao Situation" received a message from the guard knight on duty in the soul connection, Feng Longde hastily finished his combat skills training on axes and hammers and ran over, "I'll go, Sakuya, Sixteen Nights, Sakuya, the head maid of the Red Devil Pavilion?"

"It is below, Your Excellency the Half-Dead, the initiator of the cross-border mutation. Sakuya bowed slightly, "I am hereby ordered by Lord Remilia Scarlet, the master of the Red Devil Pavilion, the Forever Red Moon, the Night King, and the head of the Scarlet family, I have come to invite Your Excellency and Your Sister to the late-night banquet that will be held in the Red Devil Pavilion two days later, and I hope you will accept the invitation of my family." ”

"Invitation to the banquet? or late at night?" was nothing strange about the latter, Feng Longde, after all, the owner of the Red Devil Pavilion was a vampire, and he was used to coming in opposite directions to humans and most of the monsters, "Is there any reason for inviting us?"

"The official invitation is that the eldest lady of the Scarlet family hopes to make friendly contact with the Teutonic forces who have just entered Gensokyo and caused a mutation, and strengthen the relationship between the two sides. When she said this, Sakiya's face looked a little wry, "But the truth of the matter is that I reported the relevant news when I met you, but the eldest lady forgot about it, but these days because of the newspaper distributed by Wenwen, the eldest lady remembered this matter again and began to want to meet you." ”

"Ha, I understand. Feng Longde shrugged his shoulders and made a gesture of 'I can understand your distress': This is obviously the majestic eldest lady who read the newspaper and recalled that the head maid from the house had mentioned the matter of her group of people, and patted her head, so she asked the head maid to start preparing for the banquet and invited people to play, and then contacted Sakuya's wry expression, it is likely that when Sakuya wanted to advise, Remilia was still playing with a child's temper, and the result was probably that Sakuya, a loyal servant of Lori, agreed with a nosebleed

"So, do you accept the invitation, or do you?" asked Sakiya.

"Of course it's acceptance, why not?" Feng Longde thought about it and agreed, anyway, there was nothing wrong with going to the vampire's banquet: first, he could see the inside of the Red Devil Pavilion and witness what the real eldest lady was like, which could be regarded as satisfying the curiosity of a former senior otaku; 。

"Then I will convey your answer, and I hope that you will not be late for the banquet in two days' time. The head maid bowed slightly, "Farewell." ”

After watching Sakiya disappear with the equivalent of teleportation, Feng Longde returned to the camp and found Caroline on the construction site. After explaining the whole thing, he cautiously asked, "Caroline, do you have time? I see that you are busy with work of one kind and another these days, or you don't need to go?"

"Let's go check it out, just when I have a day off to rest. Caroline shook her head slowly, and after completing the enchantment work at hand, she turned to face Feng Longde, "Contact with the local forces is quite important, and my job is to deal with these situations. What's more, I have to make sure you're safe and don't get out of the way when the time comesβ€”brother, are you a good nobleman?"

Feng Longde: "Old sister, I have always been a commoner before I met you half a year ago, and after I met you, I survived the abuse training, have you taught me the relevant aristocratic etiquette?"

"So" Caroline's expression didn't change in the slightest, but Feng Longde keenly sensed a hint of her cunning from the soul fluctuations, "Brother, I have good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"Caroline, when did you become so wilted" Feng Longde swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he instinctively felt that none of the news was good, "You tell the bad news first, so that I can feel refreshed when I hear the good news, or I can feel that I still need to be rescued." ”

"The bad news is that for the next two days, you'll need to make a temporary assault on aristocratic etiquette. Caroline pointed to von Ronde's head, "It's not the aristocratic etiquette of the Teutonic Empire in those knowledge messages in your soul, but the aristocratic etiquette of modern humans - I have also checked the information before, the etiquette used by modern human nobles is far more cumbersome than ours, neither efficient nor concise, it is too pretentious, and the aristocratic etiquette of the Junker nobility is not bad, at least a little shadow of the Teutonic Empire, you just need to learn this." ”

"Okay, what about the good news?" Feng Longde asked with a glimmer of expectation, feeling that the next two days would definitely be busy days.

"Good news, you can stop your tiring combat skill training in the past two days, isn't it a lot easier?" Caroline's soul fluctuation was very innocent.

Feng Longde: "I'd rather double the amount of training in these two days of combat skill training!!"

β˜†

These two days are the longest two days for Feng Longde.

As a veteran otaku who used to stay at home all the year round and his daily activities were to go to the supermarket to buy daily necessities and participate in comic exhibitions, Feng Longde has always been quite puzzled why many simple things become so complicated in the hands of nobles?

This is what Feng Longde thought when he received Caroline's etiquette instruction.

But fortunately, Feng Longde learned the etiquette of the Junkers aristocracy, if it is changed to the aristocratic etiquette of other countries such as Britain, France and even Spain, let alone two days of surprise training, it will not be enough for two years!

Of course, even the simplest Junker aristocratic etiquette could not be remembered in such a short period of time, and Caroline taught him more aristocratic etiquette in the medieval style - the aristocratic etiquette at that time was far less prevalent than the Victorian era, relatively simple, and von was not very resistant: this was the point, and Feng Longde said that he would rather be beaten to death by Yakumo Zi than wear the kind of tights that stretched out his crotch and the tight top that stiffened him

So two days later, a small group drove in the direction of the Red Devil Pavilion: the leader was naturally Feng Longde, who was riding an undead war horse wearing a set of black Teutonic Gothic plate armor, wearing his demonic ring-winged barrel helmet on his head, wearing a knight's sword and dagger around his waist, and wearing a white and black cross robe and hooded cloak in addition to the armor; Armed with steel lances and steel fleurs up to four meters long, their tall and muscular stature makes them as magnificent as the statues of warriors that have stood since ancient times.

With the night wind that has not yet dissipated the winter chill, the cloaks of the thirteen people spread back like wings, making a whirring vibration sound, and the group galloped towards their destination on the undead war horse, under the illumination of the silver-white full moon in the night sky, the peephole of Feng Longde and Caroline's helmets burst out with a faint blue fluorescence, and the eyes of Yarman and the knights of the guards behind him were bubbling with blood-red soul fire, making the whole team look like a ghostly aura overflowed.

Tonight is the night of the full moon, and under the influence of the moonlight, many varieties of youkai in Gensokyo will be more excited and lively than usual, especially for vampires who are the night lovers, which is why the owner of the Red Devil Pavilion will invite the two leaders of the Teutonic camp on this day.

In the sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground, Feng Longde and the others soon came to the gate of the Red Devil Pavilion. After Lerma stopped, Feng Longde and Caroline turned over and dismounted, and walked towards the gate.

At night, the Red Devil Pavilion has begun to start a new day's life: the bell tower in the Western-style Pavilion began to resound with the crisp metal striking sound of the giant bell, and the lights on each floor of the building were lit up one by one, and there were shadows reflected by the maids coming and going in the lights, and there were also some faint voices in the Western-style Pavilion, as if the maids were making preparations.

It was still Miss Hong Meiling who was watching the door, but this time she didn't sleep, although Feng Longde could clearly see that her eyelids were drooping - similarly, Feng Longde also saw the scar on Hong Meiling's forehead that still had shallow marks, and it was obvious that Sakiya had persuaded Misuzu in advance

"It's you? Red Misuzu greeted her in Japanese quite familiarly, "It seems that Sakiya is right, you guys are indeed going to come to the banquet in such a costume." ”

"No way, we don't have dresses, and it's too late for two days to even book now. Feng Longde shrugged his shoulders and answered Hong Meiling's question in Chinese, "Where is our undead war horse placed?"

"I'm in charge of your horses, the Red Devil Pavilion has special stables, etc., do you speak Chinese?"

"I had been living in China before I entered Gensokyo, so it's no surprise that I can speak Chinese. Feng Longde tapped on the left side of his breastplate, his Teutonic Gothic plate armor was still made by a Germanic blacksmith in the world with the help of drawings and special metal materials for half a month. The Teutonic Gothic Plate Armor, made from an alloy of refined steel and magic iron, is exceptionally tough, and although it is heavier than ordinary Teutonic Gothic Plate Armor in terms of weight, it has a higher level of defense, and has a certain elemental affinity that allows the wearer to unleash magic smoothly - of course, the last attribute is of little use to Feng Longde.

"It's rare to see Chinese speakers in Gensokyo, so I'm a little excited. Red Misuzu nodded after listening to Yarman's account of the precautions about the undead war horse, "The eldest lady and the head maid are waiting for you at the entrance of the mansion, and I hope you will spend an unforgettable night at the banquet." ”

Feng Longde spread his hands and made a noncommittal gesture, and then walked towards the entrance of the pavilion with his old sister and the knights of the guards.

walked into the corridor, and at the other end of the corridor, Feng Longde saw Sakiya standing with his hands tied to the side and bowing his head slightly, and also saw the owner of the foreign pavilion here.

A blood-red lolita dressed in a white lolita dress with cherry red lines stood there, her short blue-purple hair and a berean bud hat adorned with a red ribbon on the right side of her wearer, and a pair of small bat wings stretched out behind her.

"Welcome to the Red Devils, visitors from afar. Vampire Lori bowed her legs slightly while lifting the sides of her skirt slightly, nodded her head, and the corners of her mouth showed tiger teeth that looked full of vitality, "I am the owner of the Red Devil Pavilion, the thirteenth generation head of the Scarlet family, the Lord of the Night, and the Count of Burzenland in Romania, Remilia Scarlet. ”

"It is an honor to meet you, Lord of the Night. Von Longde took off his demon ring-winged barrel helmet, nodded while pressing the right side of his breastplate with his left hand, and did not bow down (the armor on the chest and waist in the Gothic plate armor is one, and it is impossible to bend down), "I am the leader of the last descendants of the ancient Teutonic Empire, the last immortal king, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights of the Teutonic Empire, and the prototype of the dragon spirit, von Longde's former name, Hermann Duwakin Ronald. ”

"I am Nether Queen, the Elemental Body of the Dragon, and the sister of His Majesty the King, Caroline Duwakin Ronald. Caroline nodded slightly.

"I am Baron Arnold Barton, Captain of His Majesty's Guard. Yarman gave a Teutonic salute and then pointed to the ten knights behind him, "Because the road on a full moon night in Gensokkyo is likely to be dangerous, my men and I will follow as His Majesty's bodyguards. ”

"Although the banquet will start soon, but you are on time, so we don't need to rush. Remilia nodded, "Sakiya, lead the way." ”

"Yes, Miss. Sakuya bowed slightly, then looked up at Feng Longde and his party, "Please disarm your guards, we will keep the weapons in a safe place, and we will return them to you after the banquet, and you and your sister and the knight's sword of the guards can not be moved, it is a necessary item for the nobles." ”

Feng Longde nodded, turned to Yarman and said, "Hand over all the weapons that have removed the knight's sword." ”

Eleven knights of the Guards put a large number of weapons on the ground: lance-headed hammers, daggers, lances, iris shields, and one-handed battle axes from behind, which were piled up on the ground to form a small mountain.

Remilia: "Sakiya, call a team of fairy maids to come over and help, we have too many things to keep." ”

Feng Longde covered his forehead and sighed: "I know that we will always have such a speechless fork. ”
