Chapter 229: Invitation and Preparation
"Is there only the V family besides us" Feng Longde's empty right hand rubbed his chin, the cold metal surface of the plate armor gloves rubbed against the slightly exposed stubble on the chin, and the latter quickly disappeared with the thought of the Ron virus host, "But there is still a reason overall, right? I don't think that the eldest lady of your family only invited the singers of the V family and us Teutons just to make a fuss about the banquet." If that's the case, you should invite more people to your place, and this banquet feels like a tea party in a small circle, or rather, a salon?"
"That's pretty much it, although it's a dinner party, but in terms of the number of people, what my eldest lady wants is to open a salon at that time. Sakiya nodded in a small motion.
"But my question still hasn't been answered, why did you invite us?" Feng Longde spread his hands and put on a helpless posture, "No matter what, there will be a cause, right? I remember that you have served the two vampire masters of your family for quite a long time, can't you see even the slightest reason?"
Faced with Feng Longde's posture of not understanding why he would not give up, Sakuya smiled helplessly: "I really don't know what my eldest lady thinks, but I personally think that she is interested in you, it is likely that she is very interested in you, I don't know in what way this is the case, and I don't want to speculate to interfere with your judgment." β
"Interested in me? To be honest, I'm really panicked. Feng Longde said that a five-hundred-year-old vampire Lori is interested in herself, and Remilia is interested in herself?
Of course, there are so many of them. The brain itself belongs to the kind of goods with pits, such as a virgin lone wolf
"Forget it, it's useless to think too much, anyway, what is certain is that the eldest lady of your family will never invite people to play casually, and it is estimated that there is no malice. After shaking his head, Feng Longde replied, "Since this dinner or salon is still more than half a month away from now. We'll have plenty of time to order some dresses for formal occasions - you don't want a whole bunch of guys wearing heavy armor to hang around in the Red Devil Pavilion, right?
"Personally, I think that you can think of this, which is probably one of the reasons why my eldest lady invited you to her banquet again. Hearing Feng Longde's answer, Sakuya nodded with a smile, "Wearing clothes that meet the norms on the right occasion is not only respecting others, but also respecting himself." β
"It seems that you've seen too many banquets, and there aren't many shapes in the costumes alone, right?, especially during such a long period of time in Gensokyo?" Feng Longde grinned slightly, and he suddenly remembered. In the banquet I went to the Red Devil Pavilion last time, among the other guests who were invited, except for Marisa and Alice, a quasi-magician and a magician from the demon world, the usual clothes were very suitable for formal occasions, and the others were the clothes of the three sisters of the spirits, like Reimu, who was a red and white witch at any time, and such guys abound in the banquet, and it is estimated that it is a kind of torture for the maid Nagasaki who has served in the aristocratic family for a long time. It's just that because of the principle of 'Gensokyo is inclusive of everything', it's not easy to ask others about this - how many of the supernatural girls with names and surnames in Gensokkyo are more stable than casual? definitely belong to a minority of the minority, and the rest are either completely casual or the type of casual image overwhelms the steady image, such as a certain two models of squatting with their heads and a certain undisciplined red and white witch
"Yes, it is more common to wear formal attire for formal occasions. Aside from you, there are only a few humans or youkai in Gensokyo who can do it. Sakiya sighed. Then he got up from his chair, "There are a few pretty good tailor shops in the world, and all the clothes of the Red Devil Pavilion are made from them, not to mention the quality is quite good, and the speed of making clothes is also very fast; let me tell you their addresses, this time is enough time for all of you who are going to the banquet to order a pretty good dress." Their address is"
"Thank you. With the soul heart to strengthen his memory and remember it firmly, Feng Longde sincerely thanked him, he knew very well that if he took people to look for it door to door, he would definitely waste a lot of time, "We will arrive on time then." The Teutons have always been punctual. β
"I can see that whether it is the banquet held by my eldest lady last time, or the banquet held at Hakurei Shrine, you are just stuck every time you arrive. Sakuya nodded, bowed slightly and said, "Then I'm leaving, I still have a lot of things to be busy with, such as preparing for the banquet in half a month, so I won't accompany you." β
"Goodbye and all the best to you. Feng Longde shrugged his shoulders and said he didn't care.
After Sakuya disappeared without a trace in the next moment like teleportation, Feng Longde drank the full green tea in his teacup again, and then grinned and began to use his soul to contact: "Caroline, Yarman, you put aside the matter at hand for the time being, and gather in the reception hall on the first floor of the headquarters fort, I have something to say."
β
This time, the Red Devil Pavilion invited Feng Longde and Caroline and these two people who were willing to bring them to their banquet, Feng Longde thought about it, and first needed to determine the candidates, so he summoned his own deceased subordinates in the Teutonic camp through soul connections, and the rest of the cooperators such as Adolf and several ordinary human company captains and flag captains such as Li Sa also asked the guard knights to convey and bring them together.
In line with the principle of self-willingness, Feng Longde quickly identified many people who would attend the banquet: in addition to himself and Caroline, Yarman, the captain of the guard, would bring ten knights of the guard who had time to spare, and Adolf, the undead man of Penglai and the former head of Germany, was very interested in the vampire master of the Red Devil Pavilion, and he would also go to the banquet, although it was a little embarrassing because of the events of World War II. However, this kind of small thing is not a big deal in Gensokyo; Zhu Henghong, the company leader of a Boghall pikeman company, is also a corpse witch who has just entered the Tao, and he is also a former oriental fanatic, without Feng Longde's request, this thing himself pestered his life-saving benefactor to ask him to go, which almost made Feng Longde think that this guy had a deviation in sexual orientation after reincarnation
The above dozen or so are still within Feng Longde's acceptable range. But there were two sign-ups that made him not calm, they were the company captain of another Boghall pikemen company, and the company leader of a Boghall two-handed swordsman company captain-
That's right, the former is Takawa Abe, and the latter is Billy Harrington
Feng Longde took a mouthful of old blood uh, didn't squirt out, he swallowed it back, he didn't want to take these two with him from the bottom of his heart, but the problem was that the last remaining company leader of the Boghall pikeman company had no interest in attending the banquet. Especially to participate in the banquet with the presence of vampires, besides, Feng Longde did not refuse the reason why these two goods could not go: Billy Herrington has already served as the company captain of the Boghall two-handed swordsman company, not to mention, even Abe Takazu has recently been promoted by the knights of the guard because of his excellent performance and certain command ability, which can be said to be the three good models of Boghall soldiers- The most important thing is that these two have always been honest and haven't caused trouble, and they have trained very hard, and the Boghall soldiers can rest freely after training, and they don't need the company captain to keep an eye on them anytime and anywhere, and Feng Longde can't use the reason that they must strengthen their training and manage their own company to let them not go - the banquets in the Red Devil Pavilion are held at night. And that doesn't delay training!
After thinking about it for a while, Feng Longde decided to let the two of them go together. But it must be under the all-round monitoring of the guards knights: although he and the others don't care who it is, their own strength and vigilance can avoid the situation in case they occur, and the same is true for the Red Devil Pavilion and even more, but it is not certain whether these two will attack each other, if there is really such a moth, Feng Longde feels that unless Gensokyo is destroyed. Otherwise, hot news like "two soldiers secretly engaged in the banquet in the Red Devil Pavilion in the Teutonic camp" will definitely accompany him for life, even if it has nothing to do with him
In addition, Feng Longde originally invited Li Sa, the flag captain of the newly promoted Teutonic Tomahawk Ranger Flag Team, and wanted him to come over to see if he wanted to participate, but Feng Longde learned Li Sa's idea from the Guard Knight who conveyed the news, that is, he planned to find the Guard Knight during this time to seriously study the tactical command of the Teutonic Tomahawk Ranger and related combat skills special training. I don't have any spare time to go to the banquet, so I can only apologize; Feng Longde doesn't force it, anyway, Li Sa is no better than a veteran-level colleague like Zhu Henghong, who has experienced actual combat and died once, and usually works hard to understand the knowledge he should know, as for the banquet, it is really impossible to wait for the next time the monster girls hold a big banquet to take him, not to say that there will be no chance in the future.
The final candidates were Feng Longde, Caroline, Yarman, Adolf, Zhu Henghong, and two, Abe Takawa and Billy Helrington, plus ten guards knights as escorts, a total of seventeen people, as guests to the dinner party at the Red Devils Pavilion in early December.
After deciding on the candidates, Feng Longde took these guys, who said that although they had different styles of dress and painting, but the overall style was close to the same, they went to several tailor shops in the world to order their own dresses according to the address that Sakiya told him.
Among the large number of drawings retrieved from the Eternal Refuge of Seven Star Mountain, Feng Longde and Caroline specially selected a few drawings that specifically depicted the military uniforms and military dresses commonly used by the Teutonic Knights and the Teutonic Imperial Legions, and decided who should order which clothes according to their own identities and positions, and asked the tailors to determine their respective sizes, so that they could order military uniforms and military dresses that fit and comfort.
Although the original intention of the production of various military uniforms and military uniforms of the Teutonic Empire was to emphasize practicality and order, the excellent workmanship of these types of Teutonic military uniforms and Teutonic military uniforms also allowed them to be used in places other than the battlefield, such as ceremonies, military parades, Especially worn on grand occasions such as banquets, but they are not as suitable for the upper class activities of human civilization in this era as tuxedos and evening dresses, but they are not bad: after all, during the Teutonic Empire, whether it was a banquet held by military aristocrats or people from other classes, everyone defaulted to the most standardized and orthodox dress style was the Teutonic military uniforms and military dresses, which was a legacy of the martial traditions of the past.
The only one of the seventeen who didn't need to be custom-made was Caroline: this Nether Demon Queen was usually wrapped in a thick layer of women's Teutonic gothic plate armor to give people the illusion that she would not leave the armor like his brother, but when the layer of women's Teutonic gothic plate armor on her body composed entirely of soul energy was put away, it revealed the jet-black princess dress she had been wearing, and with her blue eyes and long silver-white hair, and a unique temperament full of two completely different feelings of heroism and weakness, Caroline looked like a beautiful princess who did not eat fireworks in the world, pure and immaculate.
In addition to Caroline, Adolf originally didn't want to make custom-made clothes, but when he saw the relevant clothing drawings in the hands of Feng Longde and others, he changed this idea: the Teutonic military uniform and military dress have a more iron-blooded external temperament and structure than the German military uniform, and the classic design of both the German military uniform and the Russian military uniform is also reflected in the Teutonic military uniform, so Adolf also ordered a special Teutonic military dress, but in terms of epaulettes and medals, Adolf replaced it with the souvenirs he left at that time, and did not wear the Teutonic sideγ
Caroline and Adolf, and others, including Feng Longde, all ordered the corresponding military uniforms and military dresses according to their own identities, as well as epaulettes representing their respective identities and positions - in order to get the customized clothes and epaulettes in time before the banquet began, Feng Longde and the others could be said to have traveled to all the shops in the entire world that had the ability and strength to make these things this afternoon, and they were able to get a lot of money.
"It seems that the next step is to have your own military uniform factory, and this experience can be regarded as a wake-up call. Feng Longde, who was too tired to want to run wild for an afternoon, thought. (To be continued.) )
