The old man's words were harsh and merciless, and Juve's smile froze on his face for a while, but his first reaction was not to be angry, but immediately subconsciously turned his head to look at the lord in front of him. Not far away, Della also frowned, and then quickly hid his figure into the surrounding stone pillars to avoid being contaminated with the blood that some poor worm was about to splash.

However, Yuren did not mean to be angry at all, on the contrary, he did not even look at the old man, just turned his head, and then made a gesture to Charlotte. The head maid, who received the signal, immediately walked to her master's side and waited for his orders.

"Charlotte, did we invite such a guy to our reception?"

"No, master, he came in with the Perrods. They don't have an invitation letter from us. ”

"It seems that you are not doing your job well. ”

Hearing this, You Lian's brows furrowed slightly.

"I'm so sorry, host, it was our mistake. ”

Charlotte bowed her head and bowed deeply to him in apology.

"I'll make up for it. ”

"Good. ”

After saying that, Yulian closed his mouth and stopped talking, while Charlotte raised her head and looked at the old man in front of her.

For no reason, Juventus and the old man suddenly sensed a trace of cold killing intent from those beautiful, bright eyes, and then, Charlotte patted her hand lightly, and soon, two maids who were originally responsible for preparing food and wine for the guests walked to the old man's side, and sensing their arrival, the old man frowned, and then shouted angrily.

"What do you want to do, I ........."

However, just as the old man spoke, a maid standing beside her suddenly raised her left hand, and with this action, the old man's body stiffened, and the words that were about to be uttered disappeared into his throat again at the same time. And at this moment, in the center of his neck, a slender silver needle shining with a silver light reflecting the light of the magic crystal was piercing it, and just when the old man's eyes widened in surprise and subconsciously stretched out his hand to caress his neck, the maid on the other side stepped forward half a step, and then her right hand turned forward and slashed heavily into the old man's abdomen.

"Woo-huh!"

With this blow, the old man snorted, then rolled his eyes and fell to the ground, and at the moment when his body shook and was about to fall, the two maids seemed to have discussed it, and at the same time held the old man who was about to fall from the left and right.

"This gentleman is too tired, you can send him to rest and leave it to little Melissa to take care of herself......"

Charlotte's last words almost popped out between her teeth, and the two maids looked at each other curiously, then looked mischievously at Julien, stuck out their tongues, and then, "by their arms," they left the banquet hall and walked out—no one noticed that they were going on the staircase that led to the ground.

"Your Lord, you really shouldn't have done that. ”

It wasn't until the old man's figure disappeared that Juventus seemed to relax, he looked at Yulian with a hint of embarrassment, and at the same time subconsciously reached out and touched his neck, he never thought that these delicate and beautiful maids actually had such combat power. You know, just now, if the maid's target was not the old man but Mr. Viscount, he would have no way to react. In fact, if it weren't for the old man's behavior being so abnormal, he wouldn't have noticed that something was happening to him at all.

"That old gentleman is not an ordinary person, he is ..............."

"I have no interest in who he is. ”

Yuren interrupted Mr. Viscount with a wave of his hand, and his expression still looked with a leisurely and elegant smile, as if he had not taken such a trivial matter to heart. But what he had just done was not at all convincing, which made Mr. Viscount quite helpless, he looked at Charlotte, opened his mouth, and finally chose to shut up - in some ways, it was really not a problem that he could deal with, and what if he were to tell him the true identity of the old man? It's not that Viscount Juventus hasn't heard about the previous turmoil, as well as the tragic experience of a young nobleman, unlike Yulian, he has been in the aristocratic circle for so many years, how could he not know the true identity of that young man. Because of this, when this old man appeared, Mr. Viscount was actually nervous, for fear that something would happen again. After all, with the identity of this old man, it is not something that these people can provoke. However, he did not expect that this lord would use such an unimaginable means to settle the matter lightly -- well, judging by the results, there might be more trouble. However, looking at Yu Lian's unconcerned look, it was obvious that he didn't seem to take this issue to heart at all.

Forget it, the parties themselves don't care, and they can do something. Thinking of this, Viscount Juventus also shook his head, Yu Lian's statement just now was actually implying to him that he didn't want to know anything about this old man, and he didn't need to care, so it was best for him to pretend not to know about it, so it would be good for everyone.

After figuring out this layer, Mr. Viscount also wisely did not talk about this matter, but began to pay attention to the City of Valhalla, after all, as the original master of the golden trade route, the Bird family is the most surprised by the appearance of this city, especially this Mr. Viscount Juventus, he once came to Twilight Town, and he also knew what the situation was here, and in this short period of time, this town has completely disappeared, replaced by a city, how did he do it? Of course, Juventus knew that the young lord had bought a lot of building materials and stones some time ago, but there was no way to build such a city with these materials alone, what means did this young lord use?

However, it is obviously impossible to get an answer from Yulen, Juventus chatted with him for a long time, but he was not able to put half of the truth on him, and finally the two sides only finalized some more detailed cooperation details, and then Mr. Viscount reluctantly said goodbye and left, and shortly after he left, another person like a shadow appeared behind Yulen.

"Frankly, I know you're a bold man, Mr. Yulen, but I didn't expect you to be so bold. ”

"It's just a small thing. ”

Yuren turned and looked at Della. And this former killer is standing in front of Yu Lian with a smile like a nobleman at this moment, and at this moment he is completely as modest and polite as a tried and tested nobleman, but from his movements, Yu Lian can still feel the unique taste of the killer. Although he behaved very respectfully, his left hand was unconsciously attached to his leg, which was precisely to be able to react as quickly as possible at the first time, and his body curve was larger than that of ordinary nobles, in order to have a more powerful explosive force in sudden battles. These are things that those nobles and ordinary warriors can't do.

"I didn't expect that guy to send you here, why, you are the same as Mr. Viscount, do you have any opinions or questions about me?"

"Of course not, Lady Yuren. ”

Della didn't dare to joke with Yulian like Juventus, as a person who had directly fought with the other party, he naturally understood how powerful and frightening this young man's strength was, but not only that, the scene just now, in fact, Della also saw it in his eyes, but, unlike Juventus, Dra's deep shock at the moment was indescribable. Juventus is just a family assistant, so naturally he doesn't take this kind of thing too seriously. But Della, unlike a killer, he is best at killing and dancing in the shadows, and he is naturally the most familiar with this method. However, even he was not able to detect any problems with these maids, and as a killer, he had long been accustomed to observing his surroundings and assessing and looking for the dangers he might face. But this time, Dera failed completely. He didn't notice anything wrong with the maids, and even at the previous banquet he thought they were just ordinary maids - of course, they seemed to be too pretty.

However, after seeing the two maids skillfully and easily deal with the old man, Della felt a cold sweat behind his back, Holy grace is above, how can this young lord have so many terrible talents? Now, however, Della was a little worried about his master's decision, though when he came, he was quite sure that he could convince Yuren to help them. But now, he feels that the most important trump card in his hand has been taken away by others.

But even so, what should be done had to be done, so Della came up with it.

"In fact, I'm here to ask you for help on behalf of the Patriarch of the Zach family. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yu Lian was a little interested, he put down the wine glass and looked curiously at the killer nobleman in front of him.

"Help, is there something that guy can't handle on his own?"

"Of course not, Lord Yulian, there are no problems within the family at the moment, under the leadership of the master, everything is going on in a normal and orderly manner, but......... I think you may also be able to understand that the owner is a cautious and far-sighted man, and because of this, the current situation is not a good thing for him. ”

"What do you mean ..............."

"That's right. ”

Seeing that he was getting to the point, Dirk stopped talking nonsense, he straightened his face, and then spoke.

"The master thinks that a war between West and the Sith Empire is inevitable, and he is not confident that West's defense line can withstand the attack of the Sith Empire, so he ............ The host would like to be able to get your assistance, my lord. Whether it's military or military assistance, we need your help. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Yu Lian's heart moved, the patriarch of the Zack family is a very sharp person, but what does it mean for him to make such a request?

"Military and force? I don't think your intelligence work seems to be done at home, and my regular army in the Twilight Forest currently doesn't exceed 2,000 people, isn't it a bit whimsical to want me to help you resist the attack of the Sith Empire?"

"That's not what we meant. ”

Della hurriedly explained, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, and then said helplessly.

"The master understands that with the strength of the Zack family alone, there is no way to resist the army of the Sith Empire, but ............ If it's just for a few days, maybe ......... I think you understand what I mean, my lord, a big noble lineage, anyway, it's ........."

Speaking of which, Della himself was a little confused, after all, he was a killer, not a real nobleman. If he plays the role of a nobleman, he is still capable of talking to others, but when it comes to these conversations involving the real division of interests, he is obviously not as experienced as You Lianlai. Moreover, after discovering that the strength of Yuren's men far exceeded his expectations, Della immediately entered a state of tension. After all, he is a killer, and a killer is in an environment that he cannot predict, so he will naturally not be leisurely. Because of this, Della's statement is a bit vague.

"I know I'll think about it, maybe I'll find a time to talk to him personally. ”

In the face of Dela, Yulian is not as polite as when he faced Viscount Juventus, after all, the Bird family still takes good care of his territory, and in the current situation, they also give themselves face. And what about the Zack family? Although it is a big family in name, the head of the family was completely pushed to power by him, and it can be said that the Zack family has nothing worthy of respect in Yulian's opinion. Of course, as a partner, he didn't show this emotion of his own, on the contrary, Yulian nodded very affirmatively and made an answer that surprised Della very much.

"I don't think it's that difficult, we nobles exist to protect the kingdom, and since those Sith Empire guys want to invade our land, then we will naturally make him pay......... Please tell your master, and I will go to him at a suitable time to talk about the details of this matter. ”

"Great, Lord Yuren, my master will be glad to welcome you. ”

Hearing this, Della also smiled, and after receiving a definite answer from Yuren, his heart was still relaxed. At this moment, Dra, who had relaxed, had a chance to look around, and then frowned a little puzzledly.

"Excuse me, what about the young lady who followed you just now?"

"Hmm? I think she should go to work. ”

Yuren casually looked around, then shrugged his shoulders.

"What, you're interested in her?"

"No, this...... How to say........."

Della scratched her hair in confusion.

"Maybe it's my delusion, I always feel that the young lady looks like someone I know well..............."

"Maybe it's your delusion. ”

Hearing this, You Lian didn't say anything and raised his glass.

"After all, such things can happen everywhere, but I have to tell you, Mr. Dela, that you are still too tender to pursue a young lady in this way. ”

Hearing this, Della's face could only reveal a helpless wry smile. However, deep down, he still has some doubts.

Why did the maid lady just now give herself a very familiar feeling?

Cold water droplets dripped from the ceiling, making a crisp sound on the blackstone floor. Charlotte stood quietly in the corridor of the dungeon, her face was blue and pale, and her eyes, which always showed a very gentle and beautiful smile, were burning with rage at the moment.

"I really don't want to have such a problem in a situation like this. ”

She stared coldly inside the pitch-black dungeon, her voice filled with disgust and cold cruelty.

"This will make my master's opinion of me even lower, thanks to you, I think my master's impression of me will be judged by this, perhaps I should thank you for this stupid behavior?"

“..................... Hum. ”

The figure in the darkness snorted coldly, and the old man's voice was also full of resentment.

"Who do you think you're talking to? Listen, you and your master are just a little noble family, do you know who I am? Do you know the consequences of what you do? You will be swept away and cleaned up like garbage! If a lowly West nobleman dares to treat me like this, you will pay for your stupidity!"

“............... I have reservations about your words. ”

Charlotte's complexion regained its composure.

"So, can you tell me what you're here for, sir?"

"I'm looking for a man who was arrested by you! ”

The old man's voice instantly became high.

"You low-grade West garbage is not qualified to dispose of him, hand him over, now, immediately!!"

"I don't think you seem to have the authority to negotiate terms with us right now. ”

Charlotte paused, then looked deeper into the dungeon, and then walked to the wall.

"Still, if you want to see him, I'm willing to make your request. ”

As she spoke, Charlotte reached out and grabbed the torch by the wall, then turned it slightly.

"Click. ”

A low roar sounded, and then the dungeon wall behind the old man slowly lifted upward, revealing the hidden space within. The old man turned away in astonishment, looking at everything that was shrouded in dark shadows, and when he saw the situation inside, the old man's voice was full of fear and surprise for a moment.

"Grace is above!!What is this!!What have you done to him?!You bastards!!"

"Just a little punishment. ”

Charlotte smiled slightly, and then she took two steps back, discreetly keeping her distance from the dungeon.

"Since you have come for him, I think this young gentleman would be glad to have companionship. ”

As she spoke, Charlotte stretched out her right hand, put it to her mouth, and whistled softly.

"Little Melissa, it's time to eat. ”

“――――！！”

With Charlotte's command, suddenly, several viscous tentacles rushed out of the dark shadows, and they wrapped around the old man's body in an instant, and then pulled him into the infinite shadows.

"No, no!!!, you bastards, you can't, you can't, you can't--!!"

Soon, the faint sound of swallowing replaced the old man's roar and became the main theme in the dungeon. Charlotte, on the other hand, watched quietly before smiling.

"Well, then, I wish you all a good dream. ”
