No one can explain why Noel, who was born in the royal family, received a good education, and was influenced by various classics since childhood, always speaks so "white".
He has always abandoned the literary and artistic rhetoric that symbolizes the euphemistic communication of aristocrats. Pretentious and gorgeous rhetoric rarely appears in his mouth. Regardless of the occasion, whether formal or private, he always speaks nonsense.
Noel has a magical power. As long as he speaks, all reservations, pretensions, and complicated rhetoric will gradually be left behind in the conversation. Everyone will continue to speed up in the conversation with him, and eventually return to nature and go straight.
But obviously, this time it was a little too straight.
The Glorious Council Hall was silent.
Dwek was stunned. Although his brain had already digested Noel's words, he was... just shocked.
Antonio opened his mouth in astonishment, and he, who was rated as "calm" by Laurend, almost shouted something.
Ravenis gritted his teeth after a brief daze, and cursed bitterly in his heart: "Madman, you are so stupid."
The leaders of all ethnic groups recovered from their surprise and stood up one after another: "Does Sligo want to become a public enemy of all Mela?"
"Stop being ridiculous, if Dipran breaks through Sligo and Sligo falls like a giant owl, does it matter whether it becomes a public enemy? Aren't Melias and the Dragon Clan back then considered 'public enemies' in everyone's mind?"
"The giant owl never died until it was destroyed..."
"You don't want to be so crazy about spreading the Infection to all races, do you want to say that?" Noel waved his hand and said sarcastically, "Melias knew nothing about the Infection back then, and a lot of his experience was in it.
The country fell into pieces, was completely eaten away and then sorted out... Don't you think that Melias has respectable nobility and will not fall into madness?"
"Crazy, you are simply crazy!"
A leader of the race screamed in fright and anger, and condemnations came one after another, but Noel remained unmoved. Instead, he hugged the maid next to him and asked her for a kiss as if no one else was there...
Mela was already used to Noel's absurdity, and because of this, when he said this in a serious tone, regardless of diplomatic rhetoric, in a meeting, no one dared to believe that he was just impulsive.
The logic of all Noel's actions always jumps back and forth between a foolish ruler and a wise ruler, which is obviously different from that of a normal ruler.
The words of the two diplomats who knelt down and hugged his legs clearly revealed a hint of prior knowledge. In other words, Noel had carefully examined this option and was very likely to be eager to try it.
Antonio stopped the meeting in time. He tried hard to keep a smile, but the twitching wrinkles on his face were so obvious.
Everyone was confused by Noel's sudden "declaration". The gorgeous words and elegant narrative methods were as fragile as pieces of paper in front of the declaration.
Leaders and racial envoys with complicated moods were sent back to the mansion. Antonio, who returned again, saw that Noel had pressed the maid on the bench and moved frequently. He said feebly: "Noel, this is the Glorious Forum.
Hall, please respect us!"
Noel raised his head and wiped his drool: "Sorry, I just took it out of the blue."
Antonio felt dizzy at the completely devoid of apology, but he no longer wanted to say anything about it.
"Are you serious about what you just said?" Dewek, who has always despised Noel's style and unruly attitude, hesitated for a while and asked.
"Seriously." Noel said bluntly.
At this moment, Antonio seemed to see a trace of Laurent in Noel... He knew that this idea was very absurd, but the inexplicable feeling always lingered in his heart.
"If the dyed spirit invades Sligo, then I will not be able to let the beautiful girls put on the beautiful clothes I designed and dance in front of me like butterflies; their white arms and slender thighs are outlined by the clothes
The graceful curves of their bodies, the peaks that are ready to come out, their bright and charming eyes... Oh, and their clever tongues... Hey, Pope Antonio, you know, women are the most beautiful things in the world."
Antonio covered his face, feeling guilty that he had put Noel and Laurent together and made the association.
"The prayer time will be extended..." Antonio sighed inwardly.
Lavinis said angrily: "You almost failed the meeting. You are stupid. You don't think that intimidation can lead to cooperation!"
Noel spread his hands: "They won't let me see girls wearing beautiful clothes and dancing, then I will let them and my empire be destroyed together. Doesn't it sound very romantic?"
"You think this is romantic, it's simply unreasonable!"
"You should finish speaking. I will leave after I finish speaking. The maids and I still have a lot of things to do. You will inform me when the meeting starts tomorrow. Good night, young emperor."
…
…
The Red Flame Mountains ushered in a brief period of peace. Ever since the Drained Spirit ravaged the northern territory of Solon, everyone was in a state of panic.
The Vampire Hunter Celebration held in Broken Gold City had to be postponed. The major adventurers did not leave Broken Gold City, but chose to stay here and watch the changes in the impregnated spirits. Located in the southwest corner of the entire Mera, the remote location made many
People feel inexplicably at ease.
Without the fight between the vampire hunters and the dominant vampire species, Lu Yu could only occasionally hear the rustling of some wild beasts stepping on the snow while walking in the forest behind the snow.
A blood-red sign with small wings growing out of a skull caught Lu Yu's eyes - the adventurers who hunted the Vampires had placed this sign in various areas where the Vampires were active as a warning.
The Vampires were not damaged, but instead placed warning signs—blood-red maple leaves—nearby.
"We're close...I can feel their breath." Xu behind Lu Yu twitched his nose excitedly.
Lu Yu was very happy to hear this. He lowered his head and looked at Lulu, who was holding his hand and stepping on the snow. At this time, she was getting angry and kicked hard, and the snow was like fog.
In front of Lu Yu.
"Isn't it just a mistake? Don't be so childish..."
"Who is being angry? This broken road almost made me sprain my ankle. Why can't I vent my anger?" Lulu was furious.
"Okay, I used the wrong word... There's no need to react like that." Lu Yu said, "You are also good at wind magic. Can't you float it a little? Hold my hand, and I can't control the scale.
…You know my control over magic power is only at level four."
Lulu didn't say anything and kicked the snow hard again, like a large squirrel that could dig snow...
Lu Yu, who really didn't understand why Lulu was in a bad mood, had to remind her: "Pay attention to controlling your expression and don't forget what we have to do."
The anger on Lulu's face gradually solidified, and she stared fiercely ahead.
Not long after, three dominant vampires flew low over the ground, and they quickly landed when they discovered Lu Yu's trace.
"You have gone too far..."
"For a moment, don't kill me." Lu Yu gave the order directly without waiting for the other party to finish speaking.
Xu Le, who was already extremely excited, went crazy for a moment, bursting out instantly, followed by a series of cheerful laughter and dull blows mixed in with it.
Ordinary Vampires only need to release their natural power to restrain Vampires for a moment, and the opponent can only stand there sluggishly.
The three dominant vampires had their wrists tied to death by Lulu, and she ordered them to move towards the vampire castle as if walking a dog.
Because they deliberately did not ban their magic power, vampires who received the distress signal came one after another, but they only waited for a moment.
Xu Yu, who was completely familiar with her own power, became completely excited after tasting the blood of the vampires. She couldn't wait to fight against the vampires one after another. She didn't even use her restraint talent, relying on physical skills to knock down a vampire who was at least the fifth level.
Oh, if Lu Yu hadn't stopped him, at least one of the vampire's little wings would have been broken.
He didn't intend to humiliate the vampires too much, and it wasn't the time to make a deadly feud yet.
The moment I saw the Vampire Castle looming in the mountains, I noticed the commotion of the Vampire Six Wings appeared on the scene, and then...
"Hey, isn't this Bujin?"
Six-winged Bujin, the blood clan's former defeated general who had been imprisoned in the dark room of the Dawn Leader for nearly half a month, was trembling all over. Looking at the fallen clan members nearby, his scalp was numb.
"Ms. Xu Yu, right in front of you is the Blood Clan's Maple Blood Castle, where we live."
"Oh, really? So what?" Xu asked after a moment.
"Treat our people as slaves and tie them up with ropes, and knock them down one by one as they defend their homeland... You are challenging Mapleblood Castle."
Lulu let go of the rope and let the three bound vampires return to Bujin.
She clapped her hands and demanded in a commanding tone: "Let you, the Lord of the Blood Clan, and the members of the Senate come out. We, the Dawn Leader, have something we want to talk to them about."
Bu Jingang wanted to open his mouth, but Lu Yu stopped him with a cold voice.
"You know why we came, to meet us, or... to go to war."
Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Bujin no longer struggled, and quickly asked his men to notify Newman and the Senate, and took the initiative to guide Lu Yu.
The so-called castle is actually a group of palaces of the vampire clan.
Due to the invasion of soaked spirits in 572 years, the dominant species of maple blood suffered heavy losses and have not been able to recover to this day. However, their intact inheritance and good qualities have created this rare palace in a remote place.
group.
In order to maintain absolute authority, the dependents kept in captivity by the vampires are not allowed to take the initiative to approach the owner's habitat unless exempted and granted permission. Therefore, there are often only a few vampires living in the huge palaces, while those in the narrow and cramped houses have
A large number of dependents.
In the Vampire Clan, the best fate for weak captives is often to be used as blood food by the pets they raise, and they are not qualified to become dependents.
Most of the dependents are elites who fought against the dominant species in the past and became prisoners - they only want elites, and driving these elites makes the vampires feel an indescribable sense of superiority, as if the glory of yesterday is reappearing.
Passing by the splendid palaces, Lu Yu saw family members from various races. They were even more miserable than the slaves Lu Yu had seen. Knowing that there was no escape, they learned to be obedient through the long torture. When they saw the vampires passing by, they
He will immediately fall to his knees and lower his head.
Lu Yu could no longer see the arrogance of these people as the best. They would come and go as soon as they were called. It was their daily routine to suck blood from the Vampires anytime and anywhere.
The aesthetics of the vampires are quite similar to Solon. Large gray-white columns, huge arches, and exquisite relief paintings can be seen everywhere. This is true of every building you see, and the same is true of the Senate Chamber you are entering now.
.
Newman, the veteran of the blood clan and the leader of the blood clan, followed Lu Yu and the others slowly, carefully observing their movements and expressions.
Newman tried his best to show his majesty, and the vampire elders took a deep breath and put on the coldest expressions, trying to give the three of them a blow at the beginning of the conversation.
However, the results were little.
Lulu was not affected by the people and things around her at all. She developed a strong interest in the architectural style of the Mapleblood clan. In a daze, she was already flipping through the book "A Survey of Solonian Architectural Schools" she had read in her mind, trying to
Find out why the two styles are so similar, and whether there is a strong humanistic connection between them.
Compared to Lulu who was in a daze, her destructive power to the maple-blood elders was no less than that of the impregnated spirit.
In the solemn and oppressive atmosphere, under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, the elders walked around the meeting hall for a moment, looking up at the vampire elders sitting high up, breathing rapidly...
It wasn't because of fear that her heartbeat was speeding up and her breathing was difficult. Her face was red, and she laughed strangely from time to time. She looked at each vampire as if they were looking at... a dish?
As for Lu Yu…
Lu Yu and Newman's eyes met, and they looked at each other for a long time.
In the end, Newman was the first to look away. In this oppressive competition, the pressure he released seemed to hit a high wall without causing any ripples.
Lu Yu didn't feel timid at all just because this was an away game. He clapped his hands and said, "Quiet!"
As he spoke, he flew a wind blade with his backhand and hit the bronze bell next to Newman's seat.
This sudden move attracted the angry glares of the vampire guards, and the elders stood up in shock.
Lu Yu stretched out his hand to the sky, then slowly clenched his fist: "I said, be quiet!"
Looking directly at Newman, Lu Yu's voice was cold: "Newman of the Mapleblood clan...should I call you the emperor, the clan leader, or something else?"
"That's enough for Newman, Your Excellency Lord Dawn."
"Okay, then I'll make the story short." Lu Yu looked around, "I'm here today to ask for an explanation."
"The Mapleblood Clan injured the Dawn Leader guards who were patrolling their territory more than once. The four injured warriors are still recovering from their injuries."
"I don't think this is a misunderstanding. He went deep into my territory, ignored my warning signs, and attacked the unsuspecting people of my territory twice in succession..."
"Sir Newman, I don't want compensation. Which warrior did this? Come out and let him fight Xu Yu... He likes fighting, so I will give him a fair chance to fight."
"After the fight, we each go back to our homes and get ready...and then, let's start the war!"
The sonorous and powerful voice echoed in the Maple Blood Elders' Council Hall, shocking all vampires.
