The hall of the Rose Manor is delicate and luxurious, and the floor of the hall is a beautiful red copper wood floor, a dense and lustrous wood that can last for centuries, and is a valuable wood for furniture, and this valuable wood is only the floor here.

In the hall there are eight white jade-like pillars, not gold or wood, they are the leg bones of mammoth beasts. Measuring 15 meters tall and weighing 40 tons, these giant beasts of the Northern Wilderness have unrivaled strength and the bones that support them are harder than steel.

What amazes Victor most is the elaborate carvings on these huge leg bones, which tell the story of a human warrior hunting a mammoth beast alone. Victor's perverted eyesight drew his attention to a detail, the lines of these patterns were rounded and of a single shade, and they were by no means carved with a carving knife, but drawn by a human finger.

It is conceivable that once a powerful knight of the House of York hunted these mammoths and painted them with his fingers on their leg bones to hone his fighting spirit. Victor guessed that the knight was mostly a golden knight, and only a knight who stepped into the pinnacle realm could easily do so.

Unfortunately, these pillars are slightly yellowed and look hundreds of years old. Although the life span of the Golden Knight is far beyond that of ordinary people, it is impossible to live for hundreds of years. This also proves that the York family is a noble bloodline that has produced a golden knight.

Although the ancestor of the House of York has fallen, his strength and will are displayed in these pictures, which makes Victor awe and blood at the same time, which is the admiration and desire for power.

"Your Excellency, please come here. The old butler said to Victor, who was a little distracted.

Seeing the old butler leading him to the lounge at the back, Victor's face was a little strange, the nobles' dinners invited many guests to dinner, and Sylvia only invited him alone at a time, I really don't know if the glamorous countess regarded herself as the main course or Victor as a snack.

Entering this familiar lounge, Victor met Sylvia.

At this time, the countess was dressed in formal clothes, sitting at the back of a square table, her golden hair was casually sprinkled on her shoulders, and her expression was dignified and demure, which made Victor breathe a sigh of relief and a little lost.

Sylvia was also looking at Victor, who hadn't seen her for a few months, and this handsome young lord who was as handsome as an elf had become less pretentious and arrogant, and had become more restrained and mature, which made her eyes light up.

"Victor has seen Lady Sylvia, and may her beauty last forever. Victor bowed slightly to Sylvia and straightened up, this was all about lord-to-lord etiquette.

However, Sylvia didn't care about Victor's body language, but walked up to Victor with a long step, circled around him, put her delicate red lips to his ear, and said in a coquettish voice: "Victor, you have become different, more fresh and natural, it really makes me happy." ”

The aromatic scent in the mouth of the countess made Victor's heart so hot that it was almost difficult to control himself. But before he could react, the beautiful countess giggled, swayed her willow waist, and returned to her seat.

"Your Excellency, please be seated. Sylvia raised her hand and motioned for Victor to sit across from her.

"Thank you, ma'am. ”

Victor sat down quietly, but his heart was shocked, for he suddenly realized that Sylvia had not touched his blindness when she had just posted it.

Since awakening the Moon Elf's talent, Victor's perception is as high as 21 points, which is higher than any knight he has ever seen. However, Sylvia leaned over in such a graceful manner, her movements natural and graceful, and Victor could see, hear, and smell, but his body just didn't have any natural reflexes.

Victor looked at Sylvia carefully, he had extraordinary perception, and sure enough, he found many unusual details, Sylvia had perfect proportions, delicate facial features, smooth skin like jade, without any blemishes, her pores were fine, extremely evenly distributed, and her golden hair was shiny and moving, and the diameter of these hair strands was about the same.

Sylvia gives Victor the feeling that she is flawless!

This kind of perfect temperament, Victor has seen in Bruce, and in Eskerry, these two knights are tall and short, and their looks and temperaments are also different, but they both appear well-proportioned and coordinated.

Especially after Nicole became a knight, her changes are very significant, and her facial features have not changed much, but her complexion, body shape, and temperament all give people a refreshing and amazing, just like a gem that has been carved and began to become dazzling.

It's just that these three knights are not as flawless as Sylvia, but they have a strong presence more than her.

Victor quietly entered the state of supersensation and the state of overlimit.

Physique 10, Spiritual 10, Perception 10, Life 10.

Victor was taken aback by Sylvia's elemental attributes, it was the first time he had seen such a balanced elemental attribute, and any of the stats had reached the limits of ordinary humans, but they had not exceeded the limits.

Not a knight!! Victor breathed a sigh of relief, though he wondered why Sylvia had such a balanced elemental attribute, but it was just curiosity.

"Victor, I'm disappointed that you've rejected my kindness!" Sylvia said crisply.

Seeing Sylvia's smiling expression, Victor looked away a little weakly, and he said, "Madam, please understand. ”

There is no explanation, but it is unwavering.

"Victor, do you have the confidence to reject me because of the purple cane? But you must know that since the purple cane can be cut down, it can be planted. Soon, the lords of the Centaur Hills will all grow purple cane, so you won't be able to monopolize the purple cane resources forever. Sylvia laughed.

"Thirty years!" Victor said in a deep voice.

Sylvia raised her slender eyebrows and didn't speak, but Victor said.

"I drank the best dume when I was in the royal capital, and each bottle was worth 800 gold soles. The reason why it is so expensive is that it is cellared for a full 80 years. Therefore, wine is different from grain, the longer the grain is stored, the lower the value, and the longer the wine is stored, the higher the value, and it is exponentially increased. ”

"Lady Sylvia, it will take at least 30 years for the lords to grow patches of purple cane, and these thirty years are the gap they will never be able to catch. ”

Sylvia sighed, raised her hand to pick up a cup of coffee on the table, and took a gentle sip.

"Victor, my favorite thing is your coffee. Although the drink has a bitter taste, it is bitter and smooth, and with a mellow taste, it is endlessly aftertaste. What's more, it also has the effect of lifting the mind and relieving fatigue. I think this drink will be popular in the whole aristocratic circle. ”

Before Victor could speak, Sylvia's soft tone became serious, and she said, "But in my eyes, the value of coffee is far less than that of purple cane wine, do you know why?"

"Is it because the amount of coffee is limited?" asked Victor cautiously.

In Victor's territory, there are not too many black fruit trees, only more than six hundred, but coffee is originally a high-end route, and scarcity is expensive, not to mention that Victor can also buy black fruit from other lords, only he has mastered the detoxification technology of black fruit cores.

Sylvia smiled and shook her head.

"Doume is a specialty of the United Kingdom of Borui, made from the gin of the Seven Great Islands, but they also have an unpurified gin that has been a strategic substance acquired by other lords. ”

Victor's heart moved, gin is a kind of wine made with a mixture of barley and juniper berries, the taste is poor, but the price is not cheap, and it is often out of stock, I didn't expect this inferior wine to be a strategic material.

"The United Kingdom of Borui is the only human kingdom to establish a fortress on the south bank of the Jinshui River, you know the Battle of the Vanguard Fortress two hundred years ago, right?" said Sylvia.

Victor nodded, indicating that he knew about the war that went down in history.

The Battle of the Vanguard Fortress was the first large-scale battle between the human kingdom and the barbarians on the south bank of the Jinshui River, and in that battle, the army of the United Kingdom of Borui was besieged in the Vanguard Fortress by the barbarian army for a whole year. In the end, under the call of the church, other lords of the human world sent reinforcements one after another, which successfully withdrew the human soldiers in the fortress to the seven major islands.

In the end, the Vanguard Fortress fell into the hands of the barbarians, which also announced the complete failure of humanity's efforts to open up the south bank of the Jinshui River.

"At the end of that siege, when the Vanguard Fortress was cut off from food and water, and the human army was successfully rescued for two months with gin, do you understand the value of purple cane wine?" Sylvia said to Victor.

Hearing this, Victor suddenly realized that this purple cane wine is clearly a multi-functional drink that can be stored for a long time! No wonder, after Renault cultivated the secret form of barberry, drinking some purple cane wine can effectively relieve hunger, this wine itself is rich in nutrients and energy, and can also replenish water.

"So, the value of purple cane is very high. Victor smiled wryly.

"Yes, what reason do you have now to refuse to be a vassal of our House of York, and what do you rely on to protect your territory?

Sylvia smiled playfully, the York family would not allow these strategically valuable purple cane to fall into the hands of other families.

"You! you have a secret in my people!" said Victor in displeasure, apparently the Yorks had made Renault a fierce warrior.

"What's so strange about that? don't you have shadows in Castle Black, too?" said Sylvia, surprised, but there was a smile in her bright eyes.

"I didn't mean that at all。。。。。。 Alright!" Victor blushed and tried to explain, but eventually gave up, though it was a misunderstanding.

"Dear little Victor, I have read the paperwork you submitted, and it is good that you are willing to give the purple cane wine franchise in your territory to our York family at the price of 18 copper soles per liter, and only ask us to let go of food and material supplies for you. But how can I trust that you will fulfill your promise in the future?"

"Since you already have a shadow in my people, you must already know that I have given up cultivating more arable land in order to protect the purple cane resources, and without arable land, I can only rely on your strength to feed my people and pay taxes to the kingdom, so your worries are unnecessary. Victor explained with a wry smile.

"Then how can you guarantee that your territory will not be encroached upon by other families?Isn't the Chebman family already mining silver mines in your territory?Since you don't have the strength to protect yourself, why don't you accept our protection, you become our vassal, we can justifiably protect you, and you can still keep fifty percent of the purple cane share, isn't it more beneficial to you?" Sylvia looked Victor in the eye aggressively.

"There are laws in the kingdom, and lords cannot attack each other at will. Victor said in a slumber voice.

"Hehe, Fadu, talk about Fadu in front of Purple Cane, the great nobles of the royal capital will take back your territory as soon as possible, on the grounds that your castle is illegal. Sylvia scoffed.

Victor was silent, and after a while he said firmly: "I will not be your vassal! I know that you can stop other families from coveting my territory, and you can also block the reproach of the Senate, but if you can't believe my sincerity, I can only shovel those purple cane and plant crops in the field." ”

Victor was never willing to become a vassal of the House of York, he knew very well that becoming a vassal of the Great Lord would only be crushed in the midst of changes, not to mention that he still had so many secrets.

"I really shouldn't have given you fifty thousand gold soles. Sylvia touched her forehead with her fair, slender hand, and said in annoyance. She seemed to have forgotten that she had knocked out Victor another ten thousand gold soles.

Victor's heart moved, and the ghost asked a strange question.

"Sylvia, why did you want to help me in the first place? And now, even though there is a franchise agreement that is more beneficial to you, you still want me to be your vassal?"

"Is it because of Sophia? You said you were friends with her. ”

The atmosphere of the room suddenly froze.

After a few moments, Sylvia complained, "Dear Victor, it makes me sad that you mentioned other women in front of me. Then she said, "Is it because Sophia you don't want to be my vassal? ”

"Fantasy fart! The little baron has already been replaced. Victor rolled his eyes inwardly.

The reason why Victor wants to ask this question is to confirm one thing: if Sophia tries to protect the little baron, it means that Sophia not only knows that the little baron is in danger, but also probably knows who the murderer is, and even knows why the murderer killed the little baron! Of course, no one knows that the little baron is actually dead, including the murderer.

Now, Victor has become a little baron, and he has inherited his cause and effect, and Victor doesn't want to die for no reason.

However, Victor was still happy to see Sylvia's misunderstanding, so he was silent. But in Sylvia's eyes, she did look lonely and lonely.

Sylvia said softly: "Victor, I appreciate your loyalty to Sophia, but as a lord, you don't want to leave anything to chance, you must choose your own side, otherwise you will not be able to move an inch. ”

"Since you don't want to be my vassal, I won't force you, I can agree to your franchise agreement, and I can also provide you with the necessary help, however, we still have some details to discuss, such as Swift Bird and Coffee. Sylvia said.

"Before that, dear Victor, you should go and take a shower, and we can talk slowly at dinner. ”

_________________

After Victor left, a secret door in the room opened, and a beautiful woman stepped out of it.

"Trisley, you've seen that this is the man your disciple chose, what do you think?" said Sylvia, a little excited.

Trisley was silent for a while, and said coldly: "The perception of the Moon Elf's bloodline is really terrifying, every time I look at him, he reacts, if it weren't for the fact that I have been mobilizing the wind element, I'm afraid that he has already discovered it." ”

"You know that's not what I'm asking! You sensed it, right?" Sylvia stared at her Silver Knight with burning eyes.

"Yes, the first time he looked at you, the wind elemental and the fire elemental pulsated at the same time. Trisley nodded and said, she was talking about when Victor turned on the supersense and transcendence, and collected Sylvia's elemental attributes.

"Hehe, I thought it was a delusion! Do you know whose bloodline Victor might be?" asked Sylvia, a little excited.

"You think he's the bloodline of the Sword Saint Draven Wimbledon?" said Trisley, somewhat uncertain.

"Although the ancient bloodline of the awakening moon elf talent is rare, it is not impossible, but they are all wind elemental affinity, and the ancient bloodline of the wind and fire dual lineage is only the Sword Saint Draven. Sylvia said feverishly.

"Ravin is a sword master of an era, although he is not a knight, his two children have stepped into the realm of legends, and among his grandsons is a legendary knight, and the others have become golden knights. Sylvia said happily and sneered, "Poor Sophia, in order to obtain an heir of noble blood, actually kicked Victor to my side. You say, if she knew, would she faint with regret?"

Trisley shook her head and said, "Don't be too happy. The blood of the Moon Elves is all black-haired and black-eyed, while the characteristics of Draven's blonde hair and golden eyes are very obvious, so the possibility of Victor awakening the bloodline of the Sword Saint is very small. ”

Sylvia paused for a moment and said, "It's okay to try. ”

"You want Nicole to have a baby with him?"

"No, I want to have a baby with him!" Sylvia said firmly.

"Don't be naïve! The Moon Elf bloodline is already difficult to give birth, not to mention that you are 。。。。。。。 Forget it, anyway, you're delusional, Nicole is pretty much the same. Trisley gave an exaggerated expression, but she couldn't bear to dampen her friend's hopes, she knew that Sylvia had always wanted a child of her own.

It's a pity that Sylvia didn't appreciate it, she rolled her eyes and complained: "How can you, a cold old virgin, understand my feelings, I advise you to find a man as soon as possible and leave a bloodline for the family." ”

As she spoke, Sylvia folded her waist and walked out.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to take a bath, do you want to come along?" said Sylvia, with her arms straightened and charming.

"You're going to die!"
