Icepeak, the residence of the Duke of Ward.

Looking at the luxurious tall mansion in front of him, the materials used in the construction turned out to be the same ice stone as the Ice Castle Palace, and it is said that this mansion was given by the former king, because the former Duke of Ward married the princess of the Kingdom of Dillon.

Philip stayed by Lees' side, and the two stepped out of the carriage and into the mansion.

At this time, Duke Ward's mansion was already lively, and many attendants shuttled back and forth, providing meticulous services to dignitaries.

Li Si just looked around, and he recognized many important people in Ice Peak City in the Dillon Kingdom.

The presidents of large chambers of commerce, high-ranking officials of the kingdom, and high-ranking nobles of the kingdom

Many people appeared in the main quest of the Kingdom of Dillon in the previous life, but they are all gathered here at this moment.

Come to think of it, not all the people here support Duke Ward, there may be some people who, like themselves, have been affected by [Intermediate Subconscious Suggestion].

For example, the commander of the military, Marcus Conrad, who is a hardcore royal party, also appeared at the party at this moment.

This one looked bad-faced, as if he had realized that something was wrong.

However, none of the top official tycoons loyal to the king, such as Chancellor of the Exchequer Gilberto, appeared.

It may be that Ward doesn't dare to use his extraordinary abilities to affect those people easily, and they should all have certain protective measures on them.

So, tonight is the Duke of Ward showing the King how powerful he is?

It's quite arrogant!

Li Si also understood why the King of Lucar couldn't stand Duke Ward.

It is impossible for any normal king to endure a great nobleman who threatens his position of power!

Isn't this how King Morton has come all the way?

Of course, King Morton's methods are not comparable to the current young king of the Kingdom of Dilllon.

Let's fish in troubled waters and see if we can get in touch with this Duke of Ward tonight.

A faint smile appeared on Li Si's serious face, he was still worried about how to contact this person when he turned around, but now he sent it to the door.

Now it's just a matter of following the crowd and pretending to be influenced by a hint.

Although the main party has not yet appeared, the sumptuous food has already been placed on the long table in the banquet hall by the waiters.

Mainly based on all kinds of large pieces of barbecue, including very large pieces of roast venison with Dillon characteristics, secret snowflake beef, etc., Li Si has found that these are all extraordinary monster meat, but the Fez Kingdom does not have this kind of technology.

There weren't many fruits and vegetables at the dinner, most of them were cold dishes, but the few greens looked very fresh.

All this shows the financial strength of Duke Ward.

The former Duke of Ward explored a path to the sea in the mountains of the Eastern Wasteland of the Dillon Kingdom, although it was remote and rugged and costly, but it was also of great significance to break the possible trade blockade of the Fez Kingdom to the Dillon Kingdom.

Duke Ward also gained considerable benefits through this trade route.

Li Si simply took a lot of demonic beast meat and enjoyed it.

The simple spices bring out the deliciousness of the meat itself, which is tender and juicy, which makes Li Si a little unable to stop.

Philip, who had been accompanying him, also simply accompanied Li Si to eat something, and did not leave one step, it seemed that it was planned in advance.

"Ken, looks like you like barbecue!"

Philip said without a match.

"Hmm."

Li Si also responded lukewarmly, anyway, he was not in a hurry, but wanted to see what tricks Philip wanted to play.

"What do you think of the order signed by Lord Gilberto today, Ken?"

Philip chatted for a while, pretending to mention it casually, and said with a smile.

"Just do the things that Lord Gilberto explains, and I don't want to care about the rest."

Li Si said coldly, with a hint of respect in his words.

Philip didn't care about Lees's tone, he had the impression that former soldier Ken Simon had this temper.

But there was something about what he said.

"Lord Gilberto is also too worried, there was no problem with work last year, and this is the time when we are busy, but we are here to do this again."

Philip continued Lees's words, taking a glass of crimson wine from the waiter beside him.

Lees noticed Philip's thoughtful look, which he had just said on purpose, to make Philip think that the relationship between himself and Gilberto was not so close, giving him the feeling that he could be wooed over.

"I really haven't had anything to do lately, and maybe that's why Lord Gilberto left this matter to me."

"That's not going to work, Ken you're so capable, Gilberto is really a little ill-conceived."

Philip shook his head, as if he was fighting for Lees.

"In this way, I and Gilberto proposed that you be in charge of the infrastructure construction of Ice Peak City, how about it?"

Philip said sincerely, as if he was thinking about Lees.

"Forget it, I'll take care of what Master Gilberto has told me first."

Li Si gently put down the plate in his hand and glanced at Philip, a smile on his stiff face.

This is a bit of a mess for Philip.

This.

I'm ready to bleed profusely and give you this fat difference, what is the situation when you suddenly refuse?

Did you really just mean to say those things before?

Is this Kan Simon trying to do something else, or is he really a dumbfounder?

Philip, who was a little confused by Lis, kept his expression unchanged, raised his wine glass and took a sip of wine to hide his gaffe, but his brain was spinning rapidly.

No, I'm going to have to try it anyway, and it would be better if I could really win over Ken Simon, or even Duke Querc Garner behind him.

This is a task assigned by the Duke, and it must be completed!

Lees didn't care about Philip who was brainstorming, just to let him look at "Ken Simon" as a smart person first, and then find out that he was indeed a "political novice", after this psychological fluctuation from self-doubt to self-affirmation, Philip will really let down his guard.

In this way, the strength of both sides can be reduced as much as possible to pay attention to themselves.

This is Li Si's routine as a substitute trainer in his previous life, and he firmly grasped the thoughts of those kryptonite guys, and felt that Li Si was sincere and would not engage in those things that were cheating and abducting.

At this time, Lees noticed that the main protagonist appeared.

Walking down from the second floor of the mansion, a middle-aged man who looked to be about forty years old and smiled, wearing a simple and atmospheric black gorgeous dress, which could even outline the solid and strong muscles underneath.

The brown hair was carefully groomed, and the deep blue pupils revealed surprise and sincerity, and they kept greeting the nobles and high-ranking officials on the side.

This is the current Duke of Ward, the high-ranking berserker Stellan Ward!
