Chapter 446, Confident Grote
Bang Dang!
The strange appearance of the black-haired man attracted the attention of everyone around.
also instantly stole the limelight of the gorgeous appearance of the new city lord.
Hubert was also startled by the voice coming from beside him, frowned and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"No sir, I'll tell you when I go back." The brunette replied in a low voice.
Huber nodded, when looking back.
Rebecca affectionately took Fang Hao's arm and introduced, "This is Mr. Hubert, the representative of the Council of the Federation of Hundred Cities 'Nasr City'. ”
"Hello, nice to meet you, Mr. Hubert." Fang Hao said with a smile.
Traverser?
Hearing Rebecca's introduction, Hubert and several members of his entourage also paid attention to Fang Hao.
The identity of the new city owner, they guessed many people.
The nobility of the city, or the wealthy merchants who can provide large sums of money.
With Rebecca's maturity and beauty, it is not difficult to find a powerful husband at all.
But I didn't guess that what appeared in front of everyone was a young traverser.
Seeing Rebecca affectionately carrying the young man on her shoulder, a wave of jealousy rose in everyone's hearts.
If only the news of Aubrey's death had been spread earlier.
I'm afraid that the men of all the cities will rush to the city of Lisis and pursue Rebecca.
At this time, all the personnel arrived, and the servants began to serve the food one after another.
The three-zhang long table was filled with sumptuous delicacies.
Hubert used his knife and fork to cut a slice of beef while whispering, "Fang Hao City Lord is really young, you are a traverser." ”
Fang Hao didn't hide it, and played his role well, "Yes, it's just a title." ”
Over time.
It's no secret that more travelers are in frequent contact with local Aboriginal people.
Perhaps ordinary residents don't know much about this, but those in power have also learned about the existence of the traverser through various means.
Hubert's side, following the people attending the banquet, there was also a traverser, and Fang Hao had already seen it when he came in.
The other party kept his head down, just eating silently.
"City Lord Fang Hao, how did you meet Lady Rebecca?" Hubert continued to ask tentatively.
Fang Hao replied, "I have a mercenary group that I met through some missions. ”
Hearing the mercenaries, Hubert and his party, there was a look of disgust in their eyes.
Traversers, too, have their own advantages.
But the mercenary group, this kind of profession that licks blood at the tip of the knife, is a more lowly profession in the eyes of the nobility than bodyguards and guards.
Entering the city is a soldier, leaving the city is a bandit.
Mercenary, reputation has always been stinky.
Hubert looked at Rebecca, and his gaze fell on Fang Hao again.
He continued to ask: "City Lord Fang Hao, in one month, it will be the Federal Assembly, and the House of Lords has proposed that the Federation unify the command and mobilize the armies of each city, how does Lixis City consider this matter?" ”
After asking, Hubert was silent, smiling and waiting for Fang Hao's answer.
Fang Hao looked at Rebecca on the side.
The latter shook his head quietly.
Fang Hao didn't know what the draft of the House of Lords was, and he, the city lord, hadn't sat for two days.
"Rebecca and I are also discussing this matter, and when there is a result, we will make our position clear in this year's parliament." After Fang Hao finished speaking, he sent the cut steak to his mouth.
The agreement reached between Fang Hao and Rebecca, and the affairs of Lisis City, are all in charge of Rebecca.
As long as it is decided not to contradict the territorial development plan, he will not intervene.
If there is a discrepancy, the two will also discuss it privately and make a more secure decision.
As for the council, Fang Hao was not proficient in these, especially the struggle for power among the nobles, he didn't have the brain, nor did he have the energy.
Therefore, the affairs of the council are all in charge of Rebecca, and he gives a certain amount of support.
Later, Hubert asked a few questions one after another.
Fang Hao's answers were also relatively perfunctory, and there were just two sentences over and over again.
Chatting and chatting, the topic was talked about to death.
Hubert, who had no topic with Fang Hao, started chatting with Rebecca again.
Fang Hao also fell quietly and ate silently on the side.
Wait for the banquet to end, and go back to rest.
……
And at this very moment.
Grote, who was beside Hubert, stood up with a wine glass.
The hand full of gemstone rings is simply blinding.
Grote Marshall is a well-known family in the Federation, and Grote is in charge of the family's business.
He and Hubert had been friends for a long time, and this time they came to the city of Lysses together.
The first time he came to Lisis City, when he saw Rebecca, he was also amazed by the appearance of the other party.
When he heard that this beautiful woman had just died of her husband, a sense of destiny rose in his heart.
Because, a month ago, his wife also passed away due to illness.
He has a lot of money and has never had a shortage of women, but those women can't compare to Rebecca.
He didn't speak just now, just waiting to see what background and strength Rebecca's new husband had.
Now, he has determined that this kid is a traverser who doesn't understand anything, and his hair hasn't grown yet.
Compared to this traverser, he can help Rebecca even more.
Grote walked up to Rebecca with a smile and said softly, "Lady Rebecca, it's an honor to meet you." ”
The Marshall family is quite powerful in the Federation.
It is the strength of the merchant group that has the power of the merchant group, and has the seat of the representative of the merchant group in the parliament.
But in terms of identity, there is still a big difference with a city lord like Rebecca.
Rebecca just nodded politely.
"Lady Rebecca, I'm sorry to hear that the city of Lisis has been in trouble lately, and if you have any difficulties, you can tell me about it, the Marshall family's business group can ...... it." ”
Before Grlot could finish speaking, Rebecca interrupted him directly, "Thank you Mr. Grote for your kindness, but I don't need it yet." ”
Grote was stunned, he didn't expect Rebecca to refuse so decisively.
In the tone, a sense of rejection can also be heard.
But he didn't care, and continued: "The city of Lisses has many problems, and this time the annual council, the House of Lords, will be more and more demanding of Lady Rebecca. ”
After a pause, the corners of Grote's mouth curled slightly, and he glanced at Rebecca's exquisite face and towering chest, "Actually, the solution is also very simple, as long as we discuss it in detail, we can think of a solution, if Mrs. Rebecca doesn't mind, I want to invite you to ...... after the banquet." ”
In terms of tone, it sounds very polite.
But it's the older way of picking up girls.
Rebecca's face was a little ugly, and she said coldly, "I'm sorry, I don't bother you." ”
Fang Hao sat aside, his brows furrowed slightly.
Although he and Rebecca are only husband and wife in name, it is a bit too much for you to hook up with Rebecca in front of me.
But he didn't say anything right away.
Obviously, this Grote came to the wrong enemy and used the tavern method of picking up girls on Rebecca.
If they weren't guests, I'm afraid Rebecca would have ordered him to be hacked.
"That's a shame." Seeing that Rebecca was unmoved, Grouter shrugged his shoulders.
In his eyes, a trace of gloom suddenly flashed, and he suddenly stopped hiding it, and said with a sneer: "The influence of my Marshall family, you should also know that I happened to have my wife passed away last month, I can marry you, and I will support you." ”
The wine glass shook in his hand, and the bright red fruit wine formed a swirl in the glass, and Grote continued: "However, I have given you the opportunity, and I will not force it if you don't want it, if Mrs. Rebecca has figured it out by then, she can come to my room at any time." ”
These words were unusually domineering, and it was hard to believe what a merchant said to the city lord.
Again, what I gave you is exactly what you need, and it has a strong sense of threat.
And Hubert, who was on the side, just watched silently, without any intention of speaking.
Rebecca's face was cold.
When a businessman said this, anger had already ignited in his heart.
If it weren't for the Marshall family, which did have strong connections in the Federation, she would have immediately ordered this old pervert to be pulled out and cut down.
"Humph! Pay attention to your identity Grote, now go back to your place to eat, dare to say half a sentence, I will read your words today in the Parliament as they are, so that everyone in the Federation can see the majesty of your Marshall family. Rebecca said coldly.
Grote was stunned, but he really believed that Rebecca did it.
I didn't dare to go on
He didn't dare to say anything about Rebecca, but his gaze fell on Fang Hao.
I can't get Rebecca, and I can't get you, a traverser?
Gu Hu: "Your name is Fang Hao?" Grote leaned back in his chair.
"yes, what, what's wrong?" Fang Hao asked directly.
This tone made Grote's heart flutter with anger, and then it rose.
A puppet city lord who was used as a shield dared to talk to him like this.
"Huh! Who doesn't know that Mrs. Rebecca needs a soft rice king, you don't really think that you are the city lord, do you see Aubrey, you will still have a second city lord to take your place when you die! Grote scoffed.
This sentence can be regarded as a direct satire on Fang Hao.
But Fang Hao is not Rebecca, the other party is yin and yang in front of him, he doesn't pay attention to any aristocratic face.
said directly: "This clown has drunk too much, send him back to rest." ”
Two guards stepped forward and motioned for Grote to leave.
Grote's face was instantly gloomy, and he shouted, "Traverser, you dare to talk to me like this." ”
As he spoke, he directly pushed away the two guards beside him.
But before Grote could say anything.
Bang!
Asseti, who acted as a guard, stepped forward and kicked Grote in the abdomen.
Grote's body was kicked out like a cannonball.
He stumbled and flew two or three meters before falling heavily to the ground, his body like a bent shrimp.
The whole person fell into a coma.
Hubert and the others widened their eyes and saw Grote being kicked and lying on the ground like a dead dog.
He's just a businessman, where can he withstand a kick from Asetti.
But everything happened so fast that before he could stop it, Grote was already knocked unconscious.
"Fang Hao, what do you mean by this?" Hubert stood up and questioned loudly.
"Mr. Hubert has just fallen asleep, don't you see him humiliating me? I don't fix him, I really think this is his own home, and dare to point fingers at me. Fang Hao fought back mercilessly.
In the face of Hubert's questioning, Fang Hao was also not false at all.
He was not Aubrey, and he had no control over them.
It's not that it's attached to Rebecca, but this city of Lisses is already part of its territory.
You can still get this bird's breath.
"Humph! Grote is from the Marshall family, he was just drunk and said some nonsense, and that's how you treat your guests? Hubert exclaimed.
"Since you know that you are a guest, you must be clear about what to say and what not to say, this is the first time, I forgave him for being open-mouthed, and the second time I cut his tongue directly." Fang Hao didn't let it go at all.
Hubert saw that Fang Hao was not afraid at all, and even looked like he was about to order someone to be arrested.
His eyes fell on Rebecca, and he asked in a solemn voice, "Rebecca, are you just entertaining guests like this?" ”
Rebecca looked innocent and didn't understand why she was still looking for herself.
After thinking about it, he replied, "I have already asked someone to contact the temple, and someone will come to treat me soon, and Mr. Hubert does not need to be in a hurry." ”
Hubert's face turned red with anger, and his cold eyes swept across the audience, not knowing who to vent his anger to.
In the end, he could only snort coldly, "Let's go." ”
After speaking, he walked away quickly with a group of people.
……
Hubert and the others left.
The whole restaurant also fell silent in an instant.
Fang Hao was the second time to participate in a dinner party in high society.
Rebecca is adapted to the aristocrats, verbal rivalry, and knows how to deal with it.
But when he came to Fang Hao, he was not familiar with these, and he didn't know what the other party was doing.
The counterattack that is shown is even more simple and violent.
He didn't know what that Grote was doing, and Rebecca didn't introduce him.
Anyway, I was kicked and stunned.
Now Hubert is gone, leaving only the city's officials.
They all looked at Fang Hao in a daze.
It feels like this new city owner is very different from Aubrey.
"Look at what I'm doing, eat, don't let those guys disturb everyone's interest, don't waste it!" Fang Hao motioned for everyone to continue eating.
Everyone looked at Rebecca.
The latter nodded, "The banquet continues, leave them alone." ”
Hearing Rebecca's words, everyone continued to act and began to chat while continuing the banquet.
……
In a room.
The deacons of the temple gave Grote a brief examination.
After taking the medicine, there is no danger.
It's just that the person is still in a coma and hasn't woken up.
After the deacons finished their inspection, they opened the door and left.
Immediately after, Hubert's black-haired traverser retinue walked in and stood respectfully aside.
"That Fang Hao is also a traverser, do you know him?" Huber asked with a gloomy face.
Hubert, usually followed by two people.
One guard, the other is the traverser in front of him, Wang Dongxu.
Wang Dongxu lowered his head and hurriedly explained: "My lord, this Fang Hao is very famous among our traversers, and I didn't expect to see him here. ”
"Oh? Famous? Hubert was also curious.
"Yes, he is very famous, he can be said to be ranked first among our traversers, and half a month ago, he killed many traversers by himself, and no one dared not provoke him." Wang Dongxu immediately explained.
The traversers all came together, and there may have been people behind the scenes who had also killed the traversers.
But within the channel, Fang Hao has a strong deterrent.
Whether it was Li Teng, who was the first to be beheaded, or Yu Tianpeng, the leader of the Tianpeng Alliance, they all left a deep impression on everyone.
This is also why when he heard Fang Hao's words at that time, he would subconsciously show nervousness.
"Humph! It's just a traverser, he can be ranked first, I'm afraid he hooked up with Rebecca very early, and Aubrey is likely to die at the hands of them. Hubert said with a cold snort.
He has been to Wang Dongxu's city, but it is only a small city with a few hundred people.
Although the traverser has a lot of incredible abilities, the foundation is still too shallow to compare with them.
And Fang Hao can become the first traverser, and now it seems that it is obviously Rebecca's support for him.
Lisis City is a city with a good background, and supporting a little white face in her own picture is nothing to Rebecca.
Although Wang Dongxu disagreed with his words in his heart, he didn't dare to refute it in person.
After all, he is now attached to Hubert and has no right to speak.
After thinking for a moment, he continued: "Master Hubert, there is one more thing I need to say. ”
"Say!"
"The lizardmen beside Fang Hao and the person who attacked Master Grote are all orange heroes, and that team of guards are also Rank 8 Lionheart Knights." Wang Dongxu said cautiously.
Hearing this, Hubert's eyes widened instantly.
The reason why he allowed Wang Dongxu to follow him was not his bravery and strategy, but his special abilities as a traverser.
You can see the target's class and level, and you can also craft various items.
These are the reasons why he took Wang Dongxu with him.
At first, he also thought that Rebecca also liked Fang Hao's point, plus the long skin and tender meat, so they hooked up together.
At this time, I heard Wang Dongxu say that there are two orange heroes, the 8th-order escort team, this is simply impossible.
"Are you sure you read that right?" Hubert's tone was a little unbelieving.
"My lord, I can't be wrong about this." Wang Dongxu said seriously.
Hubert fell silent, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the armrest of his chair.
After a while, he said, "These are Fang Hao's subordinates? ”
"This ......, I'm not sure, I guess that no matter how powerful Fang Hao is, it is impossible to have two orange heroes, could it be that the female city lord who cheered him on." Wang Dongxu asked tentatively,
Fang Hao was powerful, and he saw that Fang Hao was also a little nervous.
But I didn't think that Fang Hao's strength had reached this point, and the two oranges were also heroes, which was already a bit incredible.
Hubert was silent again for a long time.
"I'd like to see what other secrets I don't know about this city of Lisses, and those old men of the council may be very interested in it." ”
With that, he stood up again.
said to Wang Dongxu: "Arrange someone to take care of Grote, and I'll go see what the hell Rebecca is doing." ”
