Chapter 52: The Gift
Neo sat upright as the Hodak brothers entered the hall with a few men, and everyone in the hall looked at them.
The barbarian brothers were followed by a man and a woman, and the expressions on their faces were calm, and as soon as they entered the hall, they responded to everyone's gaze, smiling and nodding to everyone.
The two men and women were followed by a middle-aged man, the middle-aged man's face was as heavy as water, I don't know if it was freezing weather, or if he was in a bad mood, the man was only wearing thin underwear, and several coats were layered on top of each other, which looked very funny. The comical outfit also showed that the man had arrived in a hurry, and he clearly didn't expect Maple Grove to be so cold.
Just as Hodak was about to be introduced, Neo had already stood up, raised his hand to interrupt Hodak and said, "Hodak, Kazak, welcome home!" Hehe, Hodak, no introduction. ”
Neo walked up to Alonso and said, "Alonso, welcome! Then he turned to Zeta-Jones and said, "Welcome, Zeta-Jones, I've heard Hodak and them talk about your husband's and wife's names. ”
Neo turned to everyone and said, "Let me introduce you to you, these two are the guards of the famous Blood Flame Arena Twelve Zodiac Star Palaces, Alonso of Taurus and Zeta Jones of Scorpio, welcome them to our Maple Grove Town!" Everyone in Maple Grove Town applauded.
Alonso and Zeta-Jones both stepped forward and bowed down and said, "We would like to thank Lord Neo for setting us free!" With that, the husband and wife bowed solemnly to Neo.
Neo helped him up: "It's a trivial matter, and you don't need to be polite." ”
Kazak winked his eyes at his old friend. Neo walked up to Sean again and said, "Welcome, strange friend, it's been a hard journey. ”
Sean glanced at Zeta Jones and said coldly: "I'm not hard, this friend of yours has never left the knife all the way, and she is hard." ”
Neo smiled awkwardly but politely at this, and glanced at Hodak, who made a helpless expression and blocked Neo's welcoming words.
Seeing this, Whorwards hurriedly came over to welcome Sean upstairs, and Hodak told Sean about his situation in a few words.
Zeta-Jones also blushed and said, "Lord Neo, I was reckless. ”
Neo laughed, "I don't have a better way." Let's treat this Master Sean well these days, and we will make amends for him, and when he has had enough, we will prepare a gift for him, and let him go if he wants to go. ”
Zeta-Jones also laughed and said, "As long as Master Neo doesn't blame." ”
Subsequently, Hodak officially reported to Neo about his visit to Lianhua City, and the retinue outside also brought in the gift that Marquis Mario had given to Neo.
The Marquis of Mario is old, and the gifts he sends are not only rich, but also most of them are items that Neo desperately needs. Of course, there are also precious luxuries.
With so many gifts, there is a thick stack of gift lists alone. The most striking of them were four elven women.
The women had delicate faces, long white gold hair draped behind their heads, and two pointed ears peeking out from between the buns. They were tall and well-proportioned, half a head taller than Neo.
Neo II is a human being, and it is the first time I have seen such a beautiful woman!
Most of the people in the hall were the same, and everyone was dazzled by it!
Among the major races on the continent, there has long been a law prohibiting the hunting of elven races, but in the upper aristocratic circles of various races, elven women are still regarded as valuable treasures and tools of pleasure, which has long become an open secret.
This situation also makes the elves not very friendly to other races on the continent. Elven women are famous for their beauty, and any elven woman can sell them for a sky-high price in the slave market.
A philosopher once said that when the stakes are great enough, people dare to trample on any law.
Driven by huge profits, the slave traders on the continent did not hesitate to risk being hunted by the elves, but also secretly hunted.
Whether it is hunting elves or raising them as slaves, the elves are regarded as mortal enemies, and once discovered, they will not die.
Unfortunately, the Dongsheng Continent is too vast, and the population of the elven clan is sparse, so it is really impossible to take care of it, and the act of hunting elven women is also forbidden.
Each of the four elven women wore a pearl necklace around their necks, and these pearl necklaces were severed to make the owners of these elven women look less sore when they were having fun.
Neo's ideal is to develop Fenglin Town and rebuild the Star Soul Sect, and of course he will not be the great enemy of the Elf Clan for the sake of the beauty of a few elven women.
Neo walked up to the elven women and handed over the magic key, saying, "Listen, I'll let you go now, you find a place in my mansion to settle down, I'll go south in a while, and then I'll send you back to the elven forest." ”
Several elven women kept their heads down after they came in, and when they heard this, they all raised their heads to look at Neo, and listened to the human man in front of them continue: "This is not less than ten thousand miles away from the elven forest, you better not think about escaping, even if you run out of my territory, you can't escape back to the elven forest." If you're caught by someone else, I won't be able to shelter you. As for why I let you go,"
Neo presented the Goddess's Protector's Badge here, and a vision appeared in the hall, and Neo said, "You see, I am the Goddess of Ice and Snow, and one of my missions is to spread the mercy and glory of the Goddess. Not only you, but slaves of all races will be free in my realm. Don't thank me, let's praise the Goddess! ”
I have to say that the name of the goddess of ice and snow is easy to use, and all complex problems can be easily solved as long as they are named goddesses.
Several elven women were still skeptical, wondering how could there be such a kind-hearted nobleman in this world. Although they do not believe in the goddess of ice and snow, it does not mean that they do not know the prestige of the goddess of ice and snow.
As soon as Neo revealed his identity as the patron of the Ice Goddess, they immediately believed it.
Removing the severed head ring from their necks, several elven women wept with joy, despite the presence of other people in the hall, several women put their hands together on their foreheads, and thanked their ancestors for their protection in elven language.
For the women of the elven race, the most tragic fate in the world is to be captured as slaves by foreign tribes, and after several of them were caught, they finally fell into the hands of the Marquis Mario, because the slave traders wanted to sell them for a high price, so they were not touched along the way. Marquis Mario gave them to Neo as a gift, also carefully chosen.
They had been hovering on the edge of the abyss all the way, and now they were perfectly released, and this good fortune made everyone chatter and admire.
The vision in the hall also led Master Sean downstairs, and when Sean saw this scene, he also had a different idea in his heart, and he became interested in Neo for a while, and wanted to stay and watch it for a few more days.
That night, the city lord's mansion was very lively, everyone gathered together, and Sean also feasted with everyone under Neo's courteous persuasion.
