Chapter 137: Invitation, Accident
The skies of the empire are still clear. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Standing on the 4th floor of Stone Town, looking down at the bustling crowd at his feet, Augustus looked solemn, he had never gone out since he returned from leaving Queen Diana's mansion, because whether it was Albert's words, or the information he received through Alfred's sources in the imperial capital, he clearly felt that he was ostracized in the imperial capital, and that he was out of place with the entire imperial aristocratic circle, which made him feel very bad, as if he had returned to the situation when he first came to this world, and at that time he did not feel out of place with the whole worldοΌ
The wasteland, the empire, it turns out that it is really two worlds.
Augustus sighed and sighed: "I expected that it would not be easy to find a springboard for the successful return of the wasteland to the empire in the imperial capital, but how could I have thought that it would be so difficult? Not to mention trying to find enough political support in the imperial capital, I am afraid that it will not be easy to retreat from the imperial capital, this is really pessimistic, I have heard of the xenophobia of the imperial capital, but I really didn't expect that even if we have been so low-key, we still encounter hatred." β
Low profile?
As soon as he arrived in the imperial capital, he destroyed the soul of Clark's heir, and then brazenly robbed in front of everyone, which thing can be described as low-key?
In the room, Terina who tried to set the 'blood diamond' on the scepter pouted disdainfully, and lo and behold, little Augustus was telling funny jokes again, and she said casually, "It's all that big-breasted woman who is troublesome, if it weren't for her personal butler going to Earl Clark's mansion alone, who would care about you, an insignificant little person?" Okay, don't talk about that, but little Augustus, isn't this the result you want?Including dragging the soul of Clarke's heir into the abyss of fear, aren't you just to make the big people in the imperial capital aware of your existence?After all, if you don't show some unbridled courage, you, a sinner from the wasteland, will probably not have any sense of existence in the imperial capital. β
Augustus did not react.
It's no wonder that little Lori can see his intentions.
How could he have thought that Sophia's intervention would completely disrupt his rhythm and cause him to be self-defeating, not only attracting enough attention, but also directly transforming this attention into jealousy and hatred? I have to admit that he still didn't expect Sophia's sensitivity to him, and he underestimated the powerful influence of His Royal Highness the princess of Constantine in the imperial capital, who would have thought that Sophia, the brightest star in the imperial sky, had made the heirs of these great nobles of the imperial capital have a distorted psychology that even if they can't get it, they will definitely not allow outsiders to covet it?
He didn't speak again.
After tossing for a long time, she couldn't make the 'blood diamond' completely combine with the dull ruby on the scepter, and finally lost patience, and casually threw the scepter aside, the 'blood diamond' worth 35,000 gold didn't end much better, and then she looked at the 'invitation' that even the servant handed to Augustus, and even Albert surprised the 'invitation', and hesitated a little, but she still said: "Are you really going to the so-called salon in the evening?" Little Augustus, in fact, my personal advice is, give up your struggle, this may be your last chance to leave, as for the support you want to get here in the imperial capital, or wait until you make your Alfred stronger in the wasteland, what is the difference between being the enemy of the entire imperial capital and stupid suicide?"
"Enemies of the entire imperial capital?" do you mean these heirs to the great nobility who have gained glory and power because of their fathers?"
Augustus was expressionless: "You look down on them, they don't represent the entire imperial capital, in the eyes of the real rulers of the imperial capital, this is just a little game between children - in that case, how can I retreat? If I don't even dare to face these noble children, how can I face the obscure hermitage in the future?"
"But you know, once you show up in the salon, all of them will make you regret being there, no matter what, if you want to fit into their circle, you can't do it. β
Augustus was silent.
Then looking at the 'invitation' on the table, he said softly: "Since you can't fit in, it's just a matter of conquering them." β
......
Downstairs, there was a sudden noise of chaos that could be heard clearly even on the 4th floor, which is really not common in Stone Town, because even if Stone Town cannot be compared with the Royal Hotel that only accepts nobles in the central area of the imperial capital, but the luxury of Stone Town is also destined to ordinary rich people can only wander outside the door, so who would dare to disturb such a tavern with a deep background that everyone knows? And, as the hustle and bustle downstairs intensifies, no matter which angle you look at it, it only seems to prove that this is not a simple conflict, and this hustle and bustle is obviously a prepared chaos.
Upstairs.
Sensing the hustle and bustle, Augustus was stunned and guessed the worst possibility at the first time, that is, the people of the Clark family came to him, but considering the salon in the evening, he vaguely felt that there was no need for Clarke's people to find this place with great fanfare at this time, unless the hatred had made them unable to bear it for a minute or a second, and they even did not hesitate to completely turn their faces with Her Royal Highness the princess of Constantine; Blood Diamond', the answer quickly appeared in front of him, it seems that this chaos is still because of him, after all, the jewelry store that he doesn't know the background will definitely not give up looking for him as a predator easily, plus the combination of him and Terina is more conspicuous in the imperial capital itself, for the jewelry store with a home field advantage, it should not be difficult to find them.
He quickly guessed and analyzed all possibilities.
Terina had already walked out of the room excitedly.
Helpless, Augustus could only follow and walk out, and then looked down in the corridor downstairs, and saw at a glance that the hall on the first floor of the spacious Stone Town was already in a mess, the tables and chairs that were originally placed were in pieces, and no one dared to continue to stay in the field, and there, only two columns of brightly armored knights with large swords stretched from the doorway, emptying the entire hall, and also lined up straight, clearly waiting for the arrival of an important person.
A purebred black Caucasian warhorse suddenly appeared.
Galloped directly into the Stone Town, and finally stopped in the center of the hall after stepping on a mess, which can be called a gorgeous appearance, and it is also domineering.
What is especially eye-catching is that the person sitting right away is still a girl, with a stunning face, she took the neutral route that was very popular in the imperial capital a few years ago, with short hair, tight black samurai uniform, riding on a war horse, hanging a bright and delicate narrow sword at her waist, against the backdrop of her moving face, the whole person looks heroic, she can easily arouse a man's desire to conquer.
She looked up and down Stone Town.
Outside the door, panting all the way in, it was indeed the jewelry store waiter that Augustus had guessed, and almost as soon as he looked up, he grasped the young man and the charming little Lori who impressed him, and the waiter pointed in the direction of Augustus on the 4th floor, and screamed: "That's them!"
The girl's gaze fell sharply on Augustus.
Augustus remained calm.
The girl, who was about 17 years old, stared at Augustus for about a minute or so, and then said coldly, "Come down." β
Augustus was indifferent.
The little Lori beside her pouted mockingly: "You come up." β
As if provoked, the girl with a stunning face and a moving figure slowly squinted her eyes and said abruptly: "If you don't come down, I will let you watch the people in this building meet death one by one because of you." β
Augustus was inexplicable.
Little Lori was stunned at first, and then laughed: "Then we won't go down, kill quickly, kill quickly." β
The girl ignored Terina's fanning and looked at Augustus, as if she thought that the young man, who seemed to be quite pleasing to the eye, should give in to her decision.
However, she was doomed to disappointment.
Augustus, who categorically does not have the so-called innocent so-called guilt, confronted her for a while, and still didn't seem to understand the girl's strange thinking, and smiled, he also gracefully made a 'please' posture, did not speak, but the meaning of the expression was very clear.
Kill as you please.
The girl was visibly stunned, but quickly returned to normal, as if Augustus was not too surprised by his reaction.
She stared at Augustus one last time, then jumped off her horse, found the entrance to the stairs and walked all the way to the 4th floor, during which all the guests and waiters in Stone Town subconsciously avoided the flying girl, and it didn't take long for her and her knight to appear in front of Augustus and Terina, presenting the most direct confrontation situation.
The distance is less than 5 steps.
Only then did Augustus clearly see that in addition to the girl's stunning appearance, the beautiful eyes were the brightest embellishments, and the only regret was that the hair was not long, which was really a pity for Augustus, who was an out-and-out long hair control.
The girl suddenly reached out and pulled out the delicate narrow sword hanging from her waist, without saying a word, her narrow sword also stabbed directly into Augustus's heart at the moment of withdrawal, but, suddenly, it was sudden, but regardless of strength or speed, for Augustus, who had already embarked on the path of knighthood, and was getting farther and farther, it was obviously not a big threat, and he even had the opportunity to pull the knight next to him to a safe position behind him, and then felt that the knight behind the girl did not seem to have the intention of making a move, he was puzzled at the same time, he also quickly turned sideways, and directly shook the right hand of the girl holding the sword, and suddenly exerted force, the delicate narrow sword was snatched by Augustus almost in a flash.
The process is an understatement.
But to Augustus's surprise, the nerves obviously did not match the gender, even if the narrow sword was snatched, but the girl who still did not retreat suddenly clenched her fist and attacked Augustus's heart again.
Strength and speed are equally unbearable.
Augustus, who was becoming more and more inexplicable, casually planned to push the girl away, but he really didn't mean to hurt her.
But with this casual push, he pushed it to a towering soft part.
Once again, things went their way to Augustus' surprise. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support, is my biggest motivation. (To be continued.) )
