Chapter 102: The Duke of the Golden Gun
When Ark arrived at Mr. Mercury's attic, Mr. Mercury had not yet set off, and Ark waited in the carriage for a while before finally Mr. Mercury arrived. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After meeting Mr. Mercury, the two carriages left the attic at a leisurely pace, heading towards the address on the invitation. Ark didn't even inquire about the address on the invitation, only knowing that it was a secluded manor that had been bought a long time ago, but who the owner was seemed to be a secret, and no one knew.
Mr. Mercury didn't explain, and Ark could only hide his doubts in his heart, believing that after going to the manor, he would naturally know.
The speed of the carriage was not very fast, and after half an hour finally came a manor in the northern suburbs of the city, which had recently been carefully tidied up, and outside the manor, several waiters in formal clothes respectfully greeted all the guests.
When Ark and Mr. Mercury got out of the carriage, the attendants naturally took the carriage down and settled it.
"Distinguished guests, please present your invitations. ”
The waiter maintains full etiquette, which is a waiter that only nobles can train. Since this manor is used as a venue for exchange meetings, it is definitely necessary to show an invitation card to enter, and if you want to break in if you don't have an invitation, there are many guards next to the waiter.
Both Ark and Mister Mercury showed their invitations, and when they saw them, their expressions became more respectful, and they said softly: "Two distinguished guests, please enter the manor, the Earl is already waiting for you in the hall." ”
"The owner of the manor is the earl?"
Yak was startled and muttered in a low voice. At this time, he had already walked into the manor with Mr. Mercury, and naturally the waiter led the way.
Mr. Mercury said meaningfully: "In the past, Lord Earl was a duke!"
"Duke!"
Ark understood, everything understood, and the identity of the manor was revealed. Maybe there were many counts in the Kingdom of Fenan in the past, but there was only one duke, that is, the Ferdinand family, known as the God of War of the Golden Gun, was named the Duke of the Kingdom, and was generally called the Duke of the Golden Gun!
Speaking of this Golden Gun Duke, it is the legend of the Finan Kingdom, and even the entire Thirteen Kingdoms can be called a legend, the duke's family has served in the army for generations, and every duke has made great achievements, and every time he goes out on an expedition, he has not tasted defeat.
Even the Golden Gun Duke of this generation, in the war between the Thirteen Kingdoms and the Wesk Empire twenty years ago, he was sure to win every battle and made immortal achievements.
However, it is precisely because the Duke of the Golden Gun is too famous that his influence in the army has long surpassed that of the royal family, and then the royal family gradually weakened his military power and gradually idle at home. But even if there is no military power, no one dares to underestimate the Duke of the Golden Gun, the influence of the God of War family in the army is too high and too high, and some people even speculate that if the Duke of the Golden Gun is interested in the throne, the army of the Kingdom of Feinan will immediately defect at the sound of an order.
The Golden Gun God of War family, which has been inherited for eleven generations, is a banner that will never fall in the Feinan Kingdom!
It's just that this time the Wesker Empire's army approached, and the Kingdom of Feinan was forced to fall to the Blue Star Kingdom and became a subsidiary principality of the Blue Star Kingdom. The duke was demoted to the rank of earl, and as a result, the Duke of the Golden Gun became the Earl of the Golden Gun today.
I heard that before the royal family of Finan made a decision on whether to become a subsidiary principality of the Blue Star Kingdom, they also sent the prince to meet the Duke of the Golden Gun in person, but unfortunately they were disappointed and returned, it seems that the Duke of the Golden Gun is not willing to help the royal family.
If the Duke of the Golden Gun had been willing to recover, he might have been able to lead the army to confront the Wesker Empire without being so badly defeated.
Of course, this is just a rumor, what happened between the Duke of the Golden Gun and the royal family, Ark naturally does not know.
Although the Duke of the Golden Gun has now become the Count of the Golden Gun, with the title of "Golden Gun", no one can underestimate the Count of the Golden Gun, who still has a transcendent status in the Duchy of Fenan, and even the Blue Star Kingdom attaches great importance to the Count of the Golden Gun is still above the Grand Duke of Fennan.
Mr. Mercury saw the uncertain look on Ark's face and smiled slightly, "Ark, now you know the weight of this circle, right?"
Ark nodded solemnly, the host of this exchange meeting turned out to be the Earl of the Golden Gun, which means that the Earl of the Golden Gun is also an official member of this circle.
The Earl of the Golden Gun is an official member of this circle, so the other members must not be too bad, and the weight of this circle will be heavy, and Ark is naturally very clear.
However, the heavier the weight of this circle, the more Ark wants to enter this circle, and the more important members of the circle this time, the more attention will be paid to what Ark will come up with.
Together with Mr. Mercury, Ark and Mister Mercury were led by the attendants to a palatial hall, which was so characteristic that instead of two rows of chairs, it was a large white round table.
Next to the round table, there were many chairs, and Ark counted them about once, there were eighteen chairs in total, that is, there were only eighteen official members of this circle?
At this time, there were five people sitting on the chairs in front of the round table, and Mr. Mercury and Ark had just entered the hall, and one of them, a burly old man in his fifties with a red face, stood up and greeted him.
"Mr. Mercury, this is the member you recommended, Mr. Ark, right? Tsk, he is really young and promising, he has already owned three potion workshops in the royal capital in just half a year, and there is a mercenary group of thousands of people, and the framework is not small, I'm afraid it is formed with the framework of a large mercenary group, right? Brother Cologne must be quite satisfied with receiving such a disciple. ”
Needless to say, this old man who took the initiative to greet him must be the one who presided over this exchange meeting, the owner of the manor, the legendary Golden Gun Duke of the Fenan Kingdom!
"Ark pays a visit to the Earl. ”
Ark also saluted respectfully, what he did in the royal capital was nothing to these real big people, and if he wanted to know, he would be able to know it clearly.
"The Earl also knows the teacher?"
Ark was more curious about the relationship between the Earl of the Golden Gun and the Cologne teacher.
The Earl of the Golden Gun laughed and said: "The special potion prepared by Brother Cologne is a must, not only I know, but everyone present knows it, but it's a pity that Brother Cologne still hasn't let go of the original incident......"
The look of regret and regret on the face of the Earl of the Golden Gun also made Ark feel at ease, it seems that Mr. Cologne's status in the circle was not low, and it was even more important.
After all, a good pharmacist will be valued no matter where he is.
