Chapter 515: Legendary Banquet (Subscription Request)
At the Lion Manor, the banquet had lasted for a very long time, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
The band had stopped playing long ago, and the maids in the banquet hall had all left. Instead, a group of black-clad swordsmen were stationed everywhere.
Most of the guests were sitting in their seats. Some had gloomy faces, some were anxious, and some seemed calm on the surface, but the knuckles of their five fingers holding the silver cups were bulging.
Of course, there were also some heartless people, mostly young girls, who were dozing off there.
Even so, the banquet hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
No one came out from the lord's mansion and said that the banquet was over. They were afraid that they would go out and cause trouble.
These people are also reluctant to leave now, because if something happens, they can get first-hand information here, and it is the safest place.
Outward from Lion Manor, the entire city of Brussels once again entered a state of martial law.
Countless people were driven back home, and the only people on the streets were police patrols and black-clad swordsmen squatting everywhere.
However, no matter how martial law is in place, people's hearts are still very unstable.
Many people were frightened. After all, the previous "agitation" was still fresh in their minds.
However, this situation did not last long, as changes occurred in Lion Manor first.
The male and female servants were once again directed to move, and a banquet hall of extremely high standards was arranged on the sixth floor of the Mechanical Mage Tower.
In the kitchen, the cook was asked to use her best skills to prepare the most luxurious meal.
If you need any fresh ingredients, just make a list and someone will go and buy them.
What is even more shocking is that, because time is urgent, at the command of Butler Hoover, an extraordinary strong man actually released his fighting spirit and flew away.
All they wanted was the blood of a freshly killed monster.
With the Lion Manor as the center, the news spread outward and the martial law in the entire city of Brussels was quickly lifted.
It felt like the snow was meeting the sun, the ice and snow were melting, and there was even an unconcealable sense of celebration brewing in the city.
The noise eventually reached the banquet hall, sparking discussion among the guests.
They could no longer contain their anxiety and called in the busy butler Hoover.
Imperial Ambassador Lord Robin Water tried to find clues from old Hoover's face, but for a good butler, not showing emotions is basic operation.
So, after hesitating for a moment, he asked directly, "I wonder if the Earl has caught up with the assassin?"
Butler Hoover said without hesitation, "Of course, my master has already killed the assassin and also removed the heads of the eight Scourges."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar!
Many people simply didn't want to believe it. They knew that Luo Yi was a strong man among the natural disasters, but to say that he could fight against nine people alone and kill them directly was too much.
Then, someone hid in the crowd and said in a suppressed voice, "Are there no other unexpected events?"
"Change? What change? What change do you want?"
Butler Hoover's expression suddenly changed, his eyes were as sharp as knives, as if he was looking for something among the guests.
Although he is not a strong man, as the steward of the Raymond family, he is quite powerful when he gets angry.
No one dared to look him in the eye, and some even avoided him for fear of becoming a target of suspicion.
However, after just a moment, Butler Hoover's expression changed again, then returned to normal, and he spoke calmly with the elegance unique to butlers: "Of course there are changes!
The legendary masters from the three empires, along with some despicable people, wanted to carry out the assassination.
Unfortunately, my master was well prepared and intercepted them one by one, even personally killing a legend."
“Wow…”
If he was in disbelief just now but could still manage to control his expression, now he was full of doubt, thinking that the butler was talking nonsense.
Even the Imperial Ambassador, Lord Robin Water, a close collaborator of the Flower Territory, couldn't help but question, "Butler Hoover, are you telling the truth?"
"Believe it or not!"
"Then tell me, which legend died at the hands of the Earl?"
"Sardinia Kingdom, legendary wizard, 'Black Flame' Farin Zacharias."
"That's impossible! That legend is proficient in dark and shadow magic. How difficult would it be to kill him?"
"But he's dead."
Butler Hoover was no longer willing to waste time talking and directly started to drive everyone away: "Okay, everyone, today's banquet is over, you can leave now."
At this time, someone said, "I wonder if you could ask the Earl to come out and see us?"
Someone else continued, "Right, right, right. Even after the banquet is over, it's not appropriate for the host to not even show up, right?"
"My master is not available right now. If you want to make an appointment, please send a note first."
"The Earl is so stingy, could it be that..."
The words were not yet finished, but the meaning was obvious. However, Butler Hoover rarely showed his emotions, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. My master is naturally fine. However, I have a few legends to entertain, so I don't have time to pay attention to you."
"You mean?"
"Yes, I'm preparing a legendary banquet!"
…
The guests have all left.
When we left, the sky was already turning pale, and a new day had begun.
However, after a sleepless night, these people were not tired at all. Instead, they returned to the base as quickly as possible and passed the news back through various channels.
Although they found it hard to believe deep down in their hearts, they had to receive the news and report it.
Even if it is a mistake, it must be reported first and then let the nobles above us make the judgment.
They were actually prepared, and they would still be reprimanded if they received any wrong news.
But what they didn't expect was that the news was reported, but no reprimand occurred.
Instead, various requests for strengthened cooperation, trade orders, and technical support came in one after another.
Especially the Imperial Ambassador Lord Robin Water, who waited patiently after reporting the news.
But he didn't have to wait long, as the proposal to replace tanks with aircraft, which had been stuck, was passed.
At this moment, no matter how slow they were, they understood that every word Butler Hoover said was true.
At this moment, there is only one sentence lingering in the minds of countless people: The Raymond family is really about to take off!
And this is just the beginning!
The birth and death of the legend, and the aftermath caused by it, still affect the situation in Flower Territory and even the entire Old Continent.
Of course, these are all things that happened later. Currently, Luo Yi is entertaining a group of legendary warriors.
On the sixth floor of the Mage Tower, food was served like water. In order to entertain the two vampires, there was even fresh blood of Warcraft specially brought in.
Then the traditional long table was removed and replaced with a round table, implying that there is no difference in status.
The girl from the Siren tribe was also awakened, and the volume of her melodious singing was deliberately controlled.
It is neither noisy nor bustling, yet makes people feel peaceful and comfortable, creating the best environment.
Roy invited the five legends and His Majesty Saint Bartholomew to take a seat. They did not discuss any secrets, nor did they mention any remuneration. They just ate, drank and chatted casually.
They are all strong people, and drinks are just to liven up the atmosphere but won’t make people drunk.
After introducing each other, they talked about their personal experiences, history, and the current situation, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
For example, His Majesty Saint John Stuart never mentioned the civil strife in the Holy See, but instead mentioned his past when he joined the Heavenly Legion to fight in the abyss.
The first layer of the abyss, also known as the Ten Thousand Abyss Plains, is considered the gateway to the bottomless abyss and is also recognized as a battlefield for gods and demons.
There are conflicts between gods and demons, and there are conflicts between demons and devils. When devils meet gods, the fight often ends in death.
Since there is a conflict, the most direct solution is of course to fight. Whoever wins is right.
Under normal circumstances, unless it is a war that means the destruction of a nation and the extinction of a race, everyone will leave some room for maneuver, that is, agree on a time and place, and each party will gather their legions to help and fight.
Among these, the most commonly chosen 'location' is the Wanyuan Plain.
Over time, this place even became the only place for "war".
Almost every moment, there are armies of petitioners from the Kingdom of God, armies of demons from the Abyss, armies of hell from Baator, and individual armies from various prime material planes...
They came here to kill to the death.
This is what is called a bloody battle!
Saint John Stuart participated in such a bloody battle. His enemy was the demon lord under the command of the legendary Dark Lord Graz'zt.
But halfway through the battle, the army of hell broke in and also involved the army of petitioners of another god.
Anyway, that battle was so chaotic that Saint John still can't figure it out.
However, he also taught a little trick, which is that if an individual travels to the abyss, it is best to stay in the Broken Domain Town for a while.
It was the base of the Blood War Mercenaries, the trade center and transit station of the Abyss, ruled by a powerful succubus named Red Shroud, and there was a certain order in the place.
The environment in the abyss is extremely harsh, and the rules of survival are different from those in the plane. Therefore, living there for a period of time can better prepare for subsequent adventures and experiences.
Seeing that St. John was talking about a topic that interested everyone, the legendary Beto Reyes Norman also started talking.
He has been active outside the plane for many years, so of course he needs a stable place to stay, and the place he chose is the legendary Sigil City.
Sigil, known as the center of the multiverse, is a place from which one can reach any known plane or region.
Even Luo Yi had read about the city of Sigil in different books, and it was so magical that it was unbelievable.
However, even if Deep Blue integrates all the existing data, it cannot construct the so-called center of the multiverse. Where is it?
This time, it was His Majesty Beto Reyes Norman who solved his doubts.
First of all, His Majesty Beto Reyes Norman did not know whether Sigil was the center of the multiverse.
His strength and knowledge are not yet enough to focus on the universe.
However, he knew that the City of Marks had an extremely special power that could connect the spatial cracks in every plane and region, thus forming a unique portal.
Therefore, the seemingly impossible statement that all known places can be reached from Sigil is actually true.
