Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it had been a week since Situ Jin and the [13th Battalion] had arrived in Tias.

Fielding settled the [13th Battalion] in a military camp on the outskirts of the city, saying that it was a military camp, but it was actually a small playground plus two small red brick buildings with three stories high. Although Dulles arranged at that time to let Situ Jin assist Fielding in the defense of the city, he has never appeared in front of Situ Jin since he brought Situ Jin and them here.

Early in the morning, the people of the [13th Battalion] got up to run and drill as usual.

Situ Jin stood next to the small playground, but his eyes looked out of the city from afar, and the morning light sprinkled down, so that his whole person was plated with a layer of gold. The shirt was casually draped over his shoulders, which made his whole person a little more unruly.

"To tell you the truth, the scenery of this small town is really good!" Gao Wen's voice sounded behind Situ Jin.

Situ Jin didn't look back, Gao Wen stepped forward, stood side by side with Situ Jin, took a deep breath, and said, "Unlike the hustle and bustle of the imperial capital, people feel very peaceful here!"

Situ Jin's gaze was still looking into the distance, his blue eyes were like the starry sky in the dark, so deep that people couldn't see the bottom, no one knew what he was thinking at the moment: "Yes! This is a good place!" After a long time, Situ Jin finally spoke.

"Situ!" Gao Wen also followed Situ Jin's gaze and looked out of the city, but except for the clear blue sky and a few towering trees, he didn't see anything: "Why do I feel like we have been treated coldly by others!"

Situ Jin chuckled: "This is normal, after all, no one here really welcomes our arrival. ”

"Then what are we going to do? Are we just messing around here?" Gao Wen turned his face and looked at Situ Jin.

Situ Jin finally withdrew his gaze into the distance, and said lightly: "Let's observe for a while!

Gawain nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, the invitation to the dinner sent by Marquis Lee Kerst two days ago, I remember that the date is today, right?"

"Yes!" Situ Jin said, "This marquis is also an important figure in this Tias City, and I would like to meet the richest man in the empire. ”

Gawain smiled: "Marquis Lee Kerst invited you to thank you for saving his beautiful lady!"

Situ Jin did not speak.

Speaking of which, it was actually a very common act for Szeto Jin to save Mrs. Lee Kerst that day.

First of all, at that time, the [13th Battalion] was very close to Mrs. Lee Kester's men, and the reason why the group of cloud wolves would pick on Mrs. Lee Kester's and her guards first was because they were few people, and if there were no Mrs. Lee Kester, the hungry and crazy cloud wolves would definitely attack [13th Battalion]! At least from this aspect, it was precisely because Mrs. Lee Kester's and her guards attracted the attention of the group of cloud wolves, which made Situ Jin's series of arrangements more relaxed.

Moreover, although Situ Jin looks cold on the outside, he is definitely not a cold-blooded animal on the inside. Although the [13th Battalion] had a little conflict with Mrs. Lee Kerster's guards before being attacked by the cloud wolf, when they were on the mountain, the two teams were so close that even if they were people who didn't know each other, Situ Jin would not watch the other party being bitten to death by the wolves in front of him. Besides, he has the ability to protect everyone, and if he doesn't do anything, he's really like a brute.

Now, the people he saved in turn have to thank him, and although he doesn't think it's necessary, he won't pretend to refuse.

Turning around, Situ Jin spoke: "Gao Wen, you go to the dinner with me in the evening!"

Autumn nights, the evening breeze is breezy, with a hint of chill, but it makes people feel a little less decadent and a little more refreshed.

This is Tias, a peaceful and beautiful border town.

On the western outskirts of the town, there is a large manor, which is full of all kinds of flowers and trees, and when the autumn wind blows, the leaves on the trees immediately make a rustling sound.

Looking inside from the outside of the manor, you will see a long light-colored stone road, and on either side of the stone road are two open meadows. Walking along the gravel road, about a mile or so, you will see a large exquisite villa, with cream-white walls combined with light red roof tiles, plus arched windows embedded in the wall, giving this villa a low-key yet gorgeous look.

This was the residence of the Marquis of Lee Kerst in Tias.

On this night, the manor was lit up, and one luxurious carriage after another came from all directions and stepped through the gates of the manor. The Marquis of Lee Kerst gave a dinner party, but anyone who had a little fame in Tias would not fail to attend.

In the lobby of the villa, the marble floor glistens under the light of crystal lamps, and a long marble table measuring 20 meters long stands in the middle of the hall, which is already filled with all kinds of food and wine.

The nobles on the mainland advocate luxury and love pleasure, and regular banquets and banquets are an indispensable part of the life of all nobles, through which everyone can not only consolidate their position in the aristocratic circle, but also take the opportunity to meet more people, so as to expand their social circle. Of course, this is also an important channel for some men and women to hunt their favorite prey.

Behind the hall of the villa, there is a separate small reception room, which is not allowed to be entered by ordinary people, except by the invitation of the owner of the manor.

At the moment, there were two people sitting in this small room. One was the town's Baron Dulles, while the other was an old man. The old man looked to be more than seventy or eighty years old, his hair was thinning, his body was slightly rickety, and the wrinkles on his face made him look even older, if it weren't for the gorgeous aristocratic clothes on his body, people would have thought of him as an ordinary old man.

However, this man's identity is anything but ordinary, he is the owner of this manor, the Marquis of Lee Kerst.

The Marquis of Lee Kerst was not tall, slightly chubby, with a white beard on his chin, and at this moment he was half-lying in a rocking chair, his eyes slightly squinted.

"Lord Marquis, did you notice anything when you said that Situ Nan sent his son to Tias?" Dulles, who was the head of a city, spoke a little cautiously in front of the old man.

"Hmph!" After a long time, the Marquis of Lee Kerst snorted lightly and said, "Dulles, you just can't hold your breath!
