Chapter 253: The City Lord's Mansion Banquet
There is no perfect law in the city of the four directions, and the city lord can decide the crime and punishment.
The mercenary squad that had spoken out at the gates of the city and tried to attack the defenders was imprisoned on charges of provocative assault, and after a thorough investigation of the identities of the group, the nine honestly unloaded their armor and blades, paid a fine of 100,000 yuan, and were released in disgrace.
But it's far from being as simple as it seems.
After the group was released, they entered the Nangong family in the city while outsiders were not paying attention.
"The Flame Mercenary Regiment, the individual strength is very strong, the equipment is well-equipped, and the combat effectiveness is not inferior to the average Transcendent Realm third-order mercenary, if all the Flame Mercenaries are of such strength, then, the Flame is too terrifying, and the entire Tianbao County will not be able to find a second medium mercenary regiment that can be comparable. The mercenary captain of the Chakra Realm cultivation recounted the process in front of the Nangong family master, and said with a wry smile: "The most terrifying thing is that they have mastered a high-level exercise, and the difficulty of cultivating the high-level exercise is known to everyone, ordinary transcendent realm cultivators, one out of ten miles, really don't know where the meteor came from this group of monsters." ”
"That's the soldiers of the original Sifang City Guard Battalion, trained by Meteor. ”
Nangong Yuzhen, the head of the Nangong family, sat at the top of the seat, and with a solemn expression, he turned a pair of jade iron galls:
"At that time, in the crowd, were there any people who saw the meteor around? It was the general of the first and sixth battalions of the original internal guard battalion, and the commander of 100 people. ”
"Nope. ”
The mercenary captain shook his head with a wry smile.
Nangong Yuzhen frowned slightly: "In this way, these people who are more powerful have not even made a move, and they will take you down with just some small soldiers." ”
“...... If I had continued to do it, there was a chance that I would have been killed on the spot, and if I needed to, I could continue to find opportunities in the city to provoke a few people around Meteor and test the true strength of a few of them. ”
"No need. ”
Nangong Yuzhen said, "Now that the strength of the Flame Mercenary Group has spread, since there is no problem with the strength of the Flame, the most important thing now is to cooperate with them, win over the camp of the Nangong family, continue to provoke, and sooner or later show their feet and destroy the rare opportunity." ”
“......”
"Maybe the other three have also begun to prepare to win over Meteor and the Flame Mercenary Group, and you will directly return to Heavenly City. ”
"Yes. ”
After the mercenary captain left, Nangong Yuzhen raised his eyes and summoned:
"Come on, take the invitation card of the head of the family, go to the city lord's mansion and invite the meteor city lord to come over to the banquet at noon. ”
"Yes!"
Nangong Yuzhen didn't want to wait any longer.
The scene in the morning was that he arranged it correctly, but he didn't expect things to end in such a hurry, and a group of capable men didn't even have a chance to make a move against the flame mercenaries, but the gossip had spread all over the city.
He had to get in touch with the meteor before the other three families made a move.
Just when Nangong Yuzhen made a move, the other two guys, the Zhao family and the Xiong family, had already come to the door in person, and appeared outside the city lord's mansion one after the other.
Meteor summoned the two clan elders of the Zhao family and the Xiong family at the same time.
The two of them sat in the middle of the hall, staring wide-eyed, not knowing how to speak.
"The two of you, you will come to visit the city lord together, what is the important matter. ”
Meteor clicked on the skill of pretending to be stupid.
The next two clan elders clarified at the same time:
"We didn't come together. ”
"That's right, I just happened to run into it at the door. ”
Both wanted to talk privately alone.
Meteors don't give them a chance:
"Oh, that's a coincidence, maybe you're all talking about the same thing...... It just so happens that the city lord still has to deal with a little cultivation matter, so let's just talk about it here. ”
“......”
The Zhao family and the Xiong family looked at each other.
Don't play according to the routine.
At this moment, a general walked briskly into the hall:
"Report to your lordship, the people of the Jin family handed over the invitation, and the head of the Jin family invited him to come to the house at noon. ”
"Got it. ”
Before the words fell, the second person came from outside:
"Report to your lordship, the people of the Nangong family handed over the invitation, and the head of the Nangong family invited you to the banquet at noon, saying, there is something important to discuss. ”
“......”
The two elders of the Zhao family and the Xiong family looked at each other with a look of vigilance.
It's coming so fast!
The four major families, none of them are left behind, and all of them are together.
"Today, the sun is coming out in the west, and the four major families have all come up, could it be that something happened in the city that the city lord doesn't know? ”
Meteor secretly applauded the invitation cards of the Jin family and the Nangong family to arrive in time, and took the invitation and threw it on the coffee table, thoughtfully.
The two clan elders at the head of the group couldn't calm down.
The four major families compete for people.
The other party was personally invited by the head of the family to talk about it, and their identity as elders suddenly became much thinner.
"Actually, our Zhao family head also plans to let Elder Ben personally come to the City Lord's Mansion to invite the City Lord to come to the mansion, so ......"
The elders of the Zhao family reacted quickly, quickly changed their tone, and showed a posture of coming first and then inviting in person;
It's a pity that there is an elder of the bear family next to him.
"That's what our head of the family meant. ”
Meteor suddenly hesitated:
"How does this make me good?"
"The four family heads have all invited the mansion, but the city lord is lacking in skills, otherwise, I will simply set up a banquet in the city lord's mansion, invite the four family heads to be present at noon, what to say, discuss together, so as not to neglect the other three families. ”
Although the two elders of the Zhao family and the Xiong family felt inappropriate, they really couldn't find a reason to object, so they resolutely resigned and went back, intending to let the head of the family take the first step.
A moment later, the four heads of the family each brought two of them to the banquet.
At this time, Meteor hadn't even given the order to procure, and all the guests had already arrived, staring at each other in the hall with big eyes.
It's embarrassing......
There is no way, so I can only call a few family generals to bring people to the house to greet them.
After a few words, Meteor returned to the hall with an awkward atmosphere and a solemn smell of gunpowder.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please be seated. ”
“......”
The four of them did not move at all, waiting for the master to arrange a position.
A meteor look, it is also difficult:
The four heads of the family are all the identities of the head of the family, how to arrange the order?
"Forget it, anyway, today is a temporary banquet, a hundred beast banquet, the table here is too small to possibly be placed, it is better to eat in the courtyard, the lords of the family should not dislike the lord of the city to greet and slacken. ”
Meteor led everyone out of the hall and sat on the ground in the open space of the courtyard.
The four family masters and the people who brought them were the hosts of the Dark Dao City, and casually agreed:
"There is nothing. ”
"It's abrupt to come to the door. ”
"The Hundred Beasts Banquet that the city lord said is magnificent, but what is there to say?" Jin Wen, the head of the Jin family, was also nervous now, feeling that this banquet might not be too simple, so he took the initiative to inquire.
Meteor smiled:
"You'll find out later, come, the four heads of the house will taste the wine I captured from the Daredevil mercenary group yesterday. ”
The opening remarks were loud.
All four are shocked!
