On April 28, the rain did not stop.

Raindrops fell on the canopy, and the tuk tuk sounded like a muffled drum. Allegri lifted the curtain and looked out of the window, and the pedestrians by the road looked hurried, no one wanted to continue to run outside in this rainy weather.

The Marquis of Walledon was considerate, and knew that they had just arrived, so he arranged for a richly decorated carriage to meet them. If you look closely, every arrangement of the carriage from the inside to the outside is full of delicacy and ingenuity, especially the family crest on the outer wall of the carriage, which is actually inlaid with pure gold. Obviously, the information that Onessa had gathered in advance was not outdated, and the Marquis was a wealthy man who knew how to enjoy life.

There was still some distance from the manor in the west of the city, and Allegri took advantage of this time to rearrange his outfit. This urgently made traditional dress, with a pure black background, gold thread embroidery, and a slight provocation at the shoulders, is said to make Snowton's men more heroic, but when worn on him, it always looks a little nondescript.

On the other hand, Dalgnan next to it has a tendency to dominate the crowd. Although he did not yet have a knighthood, as a pupil of Allegri, or perhaps the most likely heir, he wore a lower embroidered silver gown, with a man and a horse and a saddle, and looked more handsome and graceful.

"Has your magic increased lately?" Allegri asked casually. In the past few months, Dargnan has made rapid progress, and his magic level has reached the level of a full-fledged magician, even more than the current Allegri.

"Recently, I have been purifying the magic in my body according to the teacher's request. Dargnan stretched out his five fingers, and the power of ice flickered away, and on each fingertip, an ice blade condensed at the same time. Immediately the pieces were spliced, and the palm of the hand was like holding a flawless snow lotus.

"Well, your original meditation method has a flaw in being strict," Allegri nodded with satisfaction, "It's too short-lived." The strength of the magic power that can be achieved, but because of this, the purity and control power of the magic power are neglected, in fact, if you make good use of it, the pure magic power can exert ten times and a hundred times the effect compared to the original. ”

"Maybe at that time, it was deliberately done in order to quickly form combat effectiveness. Dargnan took a different view.

"That's right," Allegri thought for a moment. agreed, "What they want to cultivate may not be a demon warrior master like you, but a demon warrior army, and that set of meditation methods must take care of the situation of those with less talent...... This idea is worth learning from. ”

In the past, Allegri has always been in the shoes of a magician. Think about this and think outside the box now. It's also quite rewarding. How to convert the magical advantages of the river valley into tangible combat effectiveness has always been a headache for them, although they have powerful troops such as ogre warriors, but overall, the current combat effectiveness of the mercenary group. It is no different from the average army, and even slightly inferior in some respects.

Seeing that he was lost in thought, Dargnon did not bother anymore. He leaned back on the mink cushion, his eyes closed, a killer's keen sense. Pay attention to the wind and grass around you.

The rain dropped, the cars rolled, and the faint voices of people gradually became louder, and it seemed that a large group of people were gathering not far ahead.

The destination of the trip, Walledon Manor, is about to arrive.

Dargnan opened his eyes, looked around, did not find an umbrella in the carriage, frowned a little confused, he subconsciously pushed the car door, wanting to prepare tools to protect himself from the rain before the teacher got out of the car.

"Count Allegri, who has admired his name for a long time, and now that he sees it, he is indeed a talent, it is really a blessing, a blessing. ”

Before Dargnan could react, the enthusiasm in his face drunk him again.

The Marquis, who was smiling all over his face, shook his hands again and again, as if otherwise, it was not enough to express the fiery feelings in his heart.

"It's a ......great honor to hear that His Excellency the Earl is willing to go to the appointment," the Marquis of Walledon was still babbling something, but Dargnan was still stunned, he really didn't know whether he should get out of the carriage first, or wake up the other party directly, so as not to let the situation slide in a more embarrassing direction.

"It's very stormy, let's go, let's go inside and talk in detail. He was still hesitating, but the Marquis had already made a choice for him, and took Dargnan's hand and walked straight in the direction of the manor.

At this moment, behind Dargnan, Allegri suddenly stretched out his head, looked around blankly, and asked in wonder,

"Who was calling my name just now?"

The Marquis of Walleden, forty and seven, served in the Imperial Ministry of Finance, and was the director of the tax office under its jurisdiction, which was considered a high authority.

He was born in a famous family, he was quite talented when he was young, he was good at painting and writing, and it is said that he was also quite proficient in musical instruments.

Although there are rumors that he has been able to prosper in official fortune by nepotism, no one can deny his outstanding financial management ability. In addition to keeping the empire's taxes in order, the Walleden family's wealth has grown over the years, and it has now amassed an astonishing fortune.

Because of this, the Marquis of Walledon has always acted tactfully, with the typical bargaining meaning of a businessman, and the transaction is not benevolent, rarely offends others, and has a good reputation in the aristocratic circle.

Of course, the necessary condition for being sleek is to have thick skin.

In just an instant, the Marquis realized that he had recognized the wrong person. glared fiercely at the coachman next to him, as if the incident just now had never happened, he quietly shook off Dargnan's hand, stretched out directly to Allegri behind him, and smiled enthusiastically,

"Count Allegri, who has admired his name for a long time, and now that he sees it, it is really extraordinary, it is really a blessing, a blessing. ”

The expression is natural and sincere, and it also reveals an indescribable sincerity, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, and their hearts are suddenly warm.

"Thanks to the invitation of the Marquis, do you dare to obey?" Allegri had already prepared a speech, and at this time the answer was fluent, but he always felt that the atmosphere around him seemed to be a little strange.

"Let's go, let's talk. The Marquis of Walledon beckoned, and suddenly an attendant came over, stretched out a wide oilcloth umbrella, and painted exquisite paintings on the surface of the umbrella, and after being wet by the rain, the special colored ink fainted slightly, and looked at it with a unique charm.

Allegri smiled and nodded, stepped out of the carriage, and inadvertently, his eyes swept over the flow of people coming and going, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

What are so many people queuing up at the gate of the manor on this rainy day? (To be continued......
