Chapter 103: The Night's Carnival
The night of the seventh day in Macpisburg.
Countless bonfires were raised in this war-torn fortress, people danced around the bonfire, and some boys and girls began to kiss each other affectionately, and the surrounding people all cheered and cheered when they saw this scene.
At the base of the Blood Siege, in that tavern, where Eggers and Maddie laughed and toasted glass after drink.
Eggers poured a glass of wine, tears streaming from his eyes, and an old drunkard like Maddie could tell at a glance that Eggers was spicy. So, Maddie laughed and said, "Master Arthur will pit you even if he leaves!"
Eggers took a bottle of wine and said to Maddie, "Maddie, come on, Master Arthur's fourth-class wine!"
Maddie looked at Eggers' evil smile with a frightened face, then waved his hand and said, "Sir Eggs, don't be like this, now everyone knows that no one who can resist Master Arthur's fourth-class wine has not appeared yet." I don't want to make a fool of myself!"
Eggers unscrewed the lid of the bottle and laughed and said, "Hahahaha, don't shirk, give me a drink!"
Maddie's face pulled down in an instant. He smiled wryly and looked at his teammates around him, but for this kind of thankless thing, his teammates obviously wouldn't do it.
Eggers touched Maddie's shoulder with the bottle and said with a wicked smile, "You can't be cowardly, right?" ”
With a blank look on his face, Maddie snatched the bottle and looked at it in front of him.
Eggers slapped the table and stood up at the same time and said, "Drink!
The other members of the Bloodline gathered around, looking at Maddie with gloating expressions and saying, "Captain, drink, drink!" and even some of them started slapping the table.
Maddie's hard-earned courage almost leaked out in an instant, but he drank the wine before the courage poured out.
"Grunt, grunt!" the sound of wine running down his throat kept ringing.
Eggers looked excitedly at Maddie's drinking and couldn't help but applaud. The people around him quickly activated the sycophantic technique, and they echoed Eggers and said yes.
Maddie threw the wine bottle in his hand to the ground, he looked at the people around him with a red face, and said, "Labor and management are finished!"
"Captain, good, good!" said the members of the Blood Siege aloud. Eggstone felt that if he didn't drink a little more, he would be a little suspicious of being compared.
So, Eggers decided to put his old face out of his old face and fight with this group of young men!
"Hahaha!" the team laughed.
"Get out of here, old fellow!" Fedus's voice came from outside the tavern. Eggstone felt like he had been released, and he smiled and said to all the members of the blood wall: "Boys, if it weren't for today's incident, I would definitely fight with you to win or lose!"
Eggers then left the tavern as if fleeing for his life, leaving only a bloody smile.
Outside the tavern, Federes looked helplessly at the alcoholic Eggers, and said at the same time: "Eggs, we have to discuss other matters, come with me, the elders are waiting for you." ”
Eggers looked down and chanted the incantation, as a thick fog drifted over him.
Sweat rained down on Eggers, and Eggers's flushed face gradually turned to its normal color. He said proudly, "These stinky boys must not know that magic can be used like this. ”
Federes sighed and said, "Eggs, you have broken the column today, and you have drunk so much. ”
Eggers shook his head, trying to keep himself awake.
Federth dragged Eggers towards the Hall of Elders.
The Hall of Elders, as the name suggests, is where the elders stay. The members of the Hall of Elders are all sent by the great families of the Oracle Kingdom.
Due to the special geographical environment and strategic value of Maipisburg, the oracle king required each family to send an elder to guard Maipisburg.
Therefore, each family has an eighth-level elder, and each round of elder change is based on a hundred years cycle.
It is said to be the Hall of Elders, but the appearance of the Hall of Elders is really a bit miserable. All stone. The shape is a square. To put it bluntly, the Hall of the Elders is definitely the most shabby building in the whole of Maipisburg.
Step into the Hall of Elders. What little drunkenness Eggers had left vanished without a trace.
Eggers straightened his collar and walked respectfully into the depths of the building. The interior decoration of the Hall of Elders is as simple as it looks, and the entire Hall of Elders is only supported by a few stone pillars, and those stone pillars only have magic crystal lamps on them.
The most special thing in this is the statues of the elders of the past.
The statues of these elders are erected under the stone pillars of the main hall, and under each stone pillar is the statue of a generation of elders. There are a total of eight stone pillars in this hall, so there are nine elders in the Maipisburg.
Eggers walked slowly towards the only hut in the hall. The elders sat on the futon with a nonchalant face and meditated, while the two warrior elders practiced their swordsmanship there.
"Sir Eggers, you're finally here. One of them, a mage in a blue robe, opened his mouth.
The other elders opened their eyes, then stared at Eggers.
Eggers asked lightly, "What do the elders have to do with me?"
The blue-robed mage smiled and said, "Sir Eggers, don't treat us as enemies anymore. We'll be leaving tomorrow. ”
"Leave?" Eggers wondered.
The blue-robed mage smiled and said, "Yes, we will leave tomorrow, and the family will send someone to take our place." ”
Eggers slapped the table and said, "Why?"
The blue-robed mage pointed to the heavens and said, "The reward of the Oracle King is to make us royal elders. ”
"Oracle King, I'm fed up with the rotten imperial capital, and the reinforcements are marching so slowly. You say there are no ghosts, I don't believe it!" Eggers was a little excited, and the height of his voice grew with the number of words.
The elders did not speak, for they knew that what Eggers was saying was the truth. There are many infighting in the Oracle Kingdom, and if it weren't for the Oracle King holding the town on top, perhaps the country would fall apart immediately.
Eggers let out a long sigh and said, "Let's go, go well over there, although many unpleasant things have happened to us here, but after all, we have been working together for so long."
The elders nodded respectfully and said, "Sir Eggers, your reward should come soon. ”
Eggers waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you know that I also kept a promise to stay." I'm leaving just a few days later. ”
The elders said in unison, "Sir Eggers, if you have any orders in the future, remember to inform us. ”
Eggers nodded, and left the Hall of Elders without looking back. Federes followed.
"Fedus, why are you out? Not ready to prepare?" Eggers asked as he looked at Feders suspiciously.
Federes shook his head and said with a smile: "I remember I said that you saved me, and my life is yours." That's why I'm going to follow you. ”
Eggers smiled bitterly, both of them were gray-haired people, and it was a little cute that they were saying such things now.
Eggers smiled and said, "Then get ready, I may be going to Yunyou." ”
Federus smiled: "Okay, let's go together." Where are you going?"
"To the south, I heard that the scenery over there is the most beautiful. ”
"Okay!"
