Law of the Devil Chapter 390: [Crashing issue]
Chapter 390 [Crashing Problem]
Dinner at the Duke of Tulips' House is ready.
Mad, the old butler, is responsible for the management, exquisite food, gorgeous banquet venues, and even the gardens outside the castle are filled with golden tulips that symbolize the glory of the family. And all the waiters wore new costumes, and the musicians of the family agency in the castle played soft tunes.
At the moment, the Lord Duke Tulip is not at home. Therefore, the future Duchess Miss Vivienne, who has already established her name, greets the guests one by one as the hostess.
But ...
Obviously, the shy little silly girl seems very uncomfortable with this role.
Tonight, Vivienne wore a set of white evening dresses tailored specifically for her. This pure white evening dress, although it sets off her innocent and pure temperament, unfortunately, it seems that she is used to wearing the magician white The girl in the gown was uncomfortable with this kind of clothes that showed the shoulders on both sides and the whole back.
Although there are two well-dressed female etiquette teachers standing behind, quietly reminding the hostess in a low voice, greetings and salutes from every guest who comes, unfortunately, the little fool seems to have no trace of aura ... In fact, as if all her talents and auras were only reflected in magical attainments.
Although there are fireplaces with burning flames on both walls in the banquet hall, the temperature in the room is very warm, but Vivian still can't help from time to time to reach out to pull the placket under the shoulder ... The tassel for embellishment, sweeping on the body, seemed to feel itchy.
The two poor female etiquette teachers behind them can only keep whispering and coughing to stop the magician's movements ... because in such banquet occasions, the hostess scratches her ears and cheeks. But very impolite and degrading.
Vivienne has already greeted six guests at the entrance of the banquet hall ... Fortunately, as her future Duchess, not every guest is qualified to welcome her. Unfortunately, Mr. Philip had already told Vivian in secret that there were two important female guests who had to meet in person to show respect.
Vivienne feels that not only her shoulders and back are a little itchy, but even her ankles are faintly aching.
Du Wei ... He personally designed a small leather shoes for women with high heels. This kind of thing Du Wei calls "high-gen shoes" really wears women's charm. Vivienne was fortunate to be the first to try it on. Sure enough, after wearing it, because of the high heels, the woman's body naturally leaned forward, unconsciously, she would stand tall and chest, which can show the curve charm of a woman.
Unfortunately, if these shoes are worn for too long, they can be a bit tired.
Vivienne is suffering like this now. Twenty times in her mind, she couldn't help but want to bend down and take off the shoes, and her shoulders and back were cold and itchy, so exposed clothes made her seem to be in full view. Somewhat unfortunate is that she is still the hostess tonight, almost half of the people are focusing on her land.
(I will never wear this kind of clothes again ...) Vivienne made up her mind. But remembering the gentle and intoxicated eyes that Du Wei looked at to himself when she tried on for the first time, the little silly girl was sweet again, and could not help but add a sentence in her heart (if you must wear it, also ... Just wear it for him!)
Nod your head and smile, even if it's almost a stiff smile. When saluting, you must keep your neck as elegant as a swan ... This kind of action, in Vivian's view, is harder to learn than the most obscure magic spell.
(I would rather say the Thunder Summon spell a hundred times. Or copy the Intermediate Spellbook 100 times)
There are also two representatives of business groups from foreign noble families who are quite strong in the province of Desa. They are constantly in a close suit with Vivian, trying to please the future Duchess. The two guys were buzzing and buzzing, Vivien was clearly impatient, but still smiled.
Well ... these two guys, in order to please me, actually tried to find out what I like the most ... want to give a gift?
My favorite is that the two of you are disappearing now ...
However. To Dewey. Desperate to be a good wife, Di Weiwei, still cheer up. Work hard to fulfill your "duties" as a wife.
Well, for Dewey ... I, I want to be a good wife!
At this time, the outside musician played the music, which means that the last distinguished guest has finally arrived.
Vivian took a deep breath and motioned to the ceremonialists on both sides. After the two pushed the door of the banquet hall gently, Vivian finally saw the target she was waiting for.
Well ... how about three? Aren't they two?
Leading forward is the future Princess Regency, Miss Delly, and possibly the future Princess. The famous southern beauty wore a long blue dress, making her temperament dazzling like sapphire. In the bright eyes, glittering gaze.
As soon as the door was opened, Miss Delly's eyes were locked on Vivienne. Well, this is the fiancee of Grandpa Tulip? That female magician?
Compared to the somber and weird magician in the impression, this girl is unexpectedly sweet. Although her body is a bit stiff, it seems that her movements are a bit out of shape when she bends down to salute. What it looks like ... No wonder it won the love of Grandpa Tulip.
Aren't all magicians wearing pointed hats, like witches?
Miss Delly's eyes only swept over Vivian's body, and she immediately swept across, staring at the hostess, but it was very impolite.
But the people behind him seem to forget the etiquette.
Princess Louise was in a white evening dress, and when she saw Vivian for the first time, she stopped.
A sudden thought came to my mind ... Due to this girl, Du Wei refused to marry him?
Her Royal Highness Princess in a white evening dress, plus the decoration on a gorgeous long dress. Makes her look full of richness and gorgeousness, and with a crown of jewels symbolizing the identity of a princess on her head. Although she had hidden her identity, she came here, but it was probably a secret comparison in the hearts of women. Psychologically, the princess decided to wear a jewel crown to attend.
As soon as she saw Vivian, Princess Louise regretted it.
The girl in front of me is jerky and feels pitiful. There was a touch of blush like shame and cowardice on her cheeks, and her eyes were as pure as a young deer, but the facial features were so delicate that people couldn't pick out a flaw. Her whole body seemed like a natural flower.
And herself ... the princess immediately regretted it. His dress, the color is the same as the other, but the style is gorgeous, standing at the moment in front of Vivian, but it seems to have become a contrived tack.
Even valuable jewelry on the wrist and neck. At this moment it seemed as heavy and tacky as a yoke.
The future Duchess is so elegant as if it had not passed through any artificial carved crystal stone ... oh, what necklace is on her neck? Just an extremely simple chain, with a small humble gem falling underneath?
If Princess Louise was just stunned because of her comparative psychology as a woman. Well, as the princess companion fell tonight tonight, the elf king's surprise far exceeded his expectations! !!
It always seems to be a gentle and light look like the Elven King. Standing next to Princess Louise, although his hand was still holding the princess's hand impeccably, but his eyes were already staring at Vivian's face a little bit.
The look is like seeing something incredible. Such a look, looked at Vivian from the head to the feet, and then from the feet to the head, and finally. Snow's eyes stopped on the necklace pendant on Vivian's neck.
This ... this stone, is it ...
Colorful stones?
Which is the strongest magic gem that stores magic? The most precious treasure of a magician? How about hanging it around your neck?
You must know that the continent where the sinners live is scarce, especially the minerals are rare and precious. Even ordinary subway mines must be carefully calculated and saved, so that the sinners have a huge army. No one can equip with the minimum weapons and armor. After having to capture the lower mountain, excavate and excavate the completely fine iron mountain to create a weapon.
As for the gem crystal used in magic. Not to mention! Even the elves who are known for their magical abilities, only senior elves are eligible to wear some magic crystals and other items.
And this human ... actually hangs such a large colorful stone on his neck?
Apart from this gem, in the eyes of the elven king, there was a touch of excitement that even he could not suppress and control ... No, maybe it was not just excitement, as if there were some other things thing!
The atmosphere in the scene suddenly froze.
The two court etiquette teachers behind Wei Wei'an secretly sweated coldly. The hostess, who had already been urged to do so, seemed to forget all the etiquette all of a sudden, staring straight at the back. The two guests seemed to be stunned.
Vivian's choking is actually excusable.
She didn't forget her etiquette, but the problem was ...
Mr. Philip told himself that tonight's two female guests thought that they were the future princess Miss Delly, and the other was Her Royal Highness Princess Louise's sister.
But the problem is ... that Miss Delly, Vivienne has recognized it, after all, her blue eyes are a very obvious feature.
Yes ...
Yes ...
Which of the following two is Princess Louise?
Don't blame Vivian for being confused.
Because tonight, the appearance and dress of the elf king Luo Xue is indeed easy to cause misunderstanding.
The beauty is so extreme that even women will give birth to jealous elven kings, who have the beauty of a flawless elven clan. The mysterious, luxurious and fragile nature unique to the elven clan has perfectly combined him into a special charming temperament. In addition to this deceptive appearance, it seems that the Elven King's dress is difficult to distinguish between men and women.
The robe worn by the elven king was deliberately cut at the waist. Showing his slender waist, the hem seems to be loose, and it looks like a skirt. And those gorgeous lines above add a bit of feminine beauty to women. Coupled with his slightly slender and thin figure, the perfect combination of temperament.
It really confuses Vivian.
Which of the two "female guests" is the princess? Which one should I salute to?
The two court etiquettes in the back are about to collapse ... To their surprise, it is not surprising that Vivian, who is rusty in etiquette, forgot to salute.
How can Princess Louise hold her back? This princess grew up in the royal family and has received the strictest court education since childhood.
Fortunately. Soon, Vivian's rescue arrived.
"Louis, oh dear Louise, I am really surprised to hear from you today."
The voice came from behind Vivian, and immediately, Mrs. Liszt had a charming smile. As the models came, she easily came over and took hold of Princess Louise's hand. This beautiful woman had a nice smile on her face and a violet evening dress, which best reflected her charming charm.
Mrs. Lister's rescue. Immediately relieved in her heart, Weiwei An bent down to salute the princess without forgetting to cast a grateful look on Mrs. Liszt.
"Dear Lan, I haven't seen you for a long time. Last time I saw you, I was riding a horse in your manor in the north two and a half years ago." The princess also returned to God and smiled in concealment, Then I paid a tribute to Vivian and said in a reserved manner: "Miss Vivian doesn't need to be polite, you are the future Grand Duchess, and now you have the title of court, so don't be kind to me."
Mrs. Liszt's face is as usual. But she glanced at Vivienne secretly, and after receiving Vivienne's grateful look, Mrs. Liszt smiled secretly.
But then she couldn't laugh anymore!
Because the elf king fell into the snow, he had just eased from the shock of staring at Vivian, but when he saw Mrs. Liszt coming, the elf king fell into a greater shock! !!
The Elven King stared at Mrs. Liszt with a naked eye, almost undisguised, with an incredible look in his eyes. Then he even messed up breathing slightly.
Mrs. Liszt is because of her beauty. I don't know how many such men's eyes have been stared at in my life, but this time. She also felt a little strange. Because the people around Princess Louise (forgive her, even the smart Mrs. Liszt did not recognize the **** of falling snow), looking at her own eyes is definitely not the greedy surprise of ordinary men who covet their beauty The eyes are not like the envy and envy cast by women ...
In this look, there seems to be extreme surprise ... even a hint of it ...
Angry? !!
This look seems calm, but it seems like you can directly see your own heart through your eyes. What kind of look is this!
Mrs. Liszt was also panicked in the calm heart, and soon she adjusted her breath, as if smiling: "Louis, what is your companion?"
"Oh, this is Mr. Luo Xue from the north, but his identity is very mysterious, and I am also curious about Mr. Luo Xue's origin." In an understatement, Princess Louise revealed to Mrs. Liszt. "I don't know the exact origin of this falling snow".
Now the snow has completely calmed down at this moment. The elven king took a breath, smiling as if the flowers were blooming. Looking at Vivian, she lowered her head slightly, and said gently, "Dear hostess, hope me The arrival is not a pretense. "
His soft voice, with a touch of magnetism, is extremely pleasant. Vivian quickly hurried back to the ceremony with what the etiquette teacher taught, and smiled stiffly: "That's my pleasure."
Then, the nervous little silly girl finally remembered all the etiquette taught by the teachers, and quickly turned to lead the distinguished guests into the banquet hall.
At this time, Luo Xue had calmly moved the princess's hand, quietly slowed down, but landed beside Mrs. Liszt.
He exhaled softly, a trace of the magic power of the pure elves. His voice was carefully tied into a line and quietly fell into Mrs. Lister's ears alone.
His voice is still soft, but with a touch of cold, but what surprised Mrs. Liszt is that the elegant and beautiful Mr. Xuexue speaks a language that is not a mainland language at all!
"# $ ^% ^ $ ^^ ......"
A very short sentence. Falling in Mrs. Liszt's ears, she was stunned first, then blanked out. After a moment, the expression on her face had turned into shock and fear!
Naked fear!
"Don't let anyone see ... Mixed Elf!" The falling snow fell coldly into Mrs. Lister's ears.
Mrs. Liszt's body shook slightly, then she immediately lowered her head, fearing that others would see her face, but only she knew it. Now I don't even have a scar on my face!
The banquet was wonderfully arranged, but it was the most boring thing for Vivian. Fortunately, she had two distinguished guests, Princess and Miss Delly, who were afraid to disturb her easily. Her Royal Highness's identity was soon recognized. Immediately became the focus of the crowd, the hostess, Vivian, was finally able to hide a little easier.
At this time, Vivian was surprised. Mrs. Lister did not know when she left. She wanted to thank her for her help. But his eyes glanced across the room, and Mrs. Liszt was not found.
Miss Delly is standing beside the princess, and they are neatly wandering among a group of devotees.
"Are you tired?"
A soft voice came from around. Wei Wei'an looked back and Luo Xue stood behind her. He didn't know when it came quietly, even Wei Wei'an didn't notice him. near.
"Um ... okay." Vivienne smiled politely.
Luo Xue's face has soft lines, eyes like flashing gemstones. Watching Vivian quietly, although her eyes were direct, she did not show off.
"You are the most beautiful woman I have ever met." Luo Xue Wen Yan smiled, and then calmly said: "Dear hostess, can I meet a small request from my guest?"
"Eh? Please say that." Vivienne gave a moment's nod.
"Honestly, I also feel bored on this occasion." Luo Xue's smile was so appropriate that even his voice seemed dark and some kind of extremely soft rhythm: "In my opinion Come. In fact, you don't like this occasion. "
Vivienne has a good feeling for this strange beauty. I just didn't know how to answer, and smiled slightly.
"Exactly. I heard that the city was built in only three months. And this castle is a miracle among miracles. Can you show me around?" She quietly blinked at Vivian, then lowered her voice, and whispered: "Anyway, I can't see them for a while and a half, and we walk away quietly for a while, no one will notice. "
Although Wei Wei'an wasn't very happy, she remembered what the etiquette teacher said today "try to meet the appropriate requirements of the guests."
Guiding guests to visit their own home should be considered an "appropriate request."
Vivian nodded. Then, the elven king smiled slightly and made a gesture, pointing to the side door nearest to where they stood, and Vivian nodded.
Mixed out easily from the lobby, not too many people noticed their departure. After leaving the banquet hall, Xuexue seemed to relax easily: "Well, human life can be really troublesome. Is such a banquet the favorite enjoyment of nobles ..."
"Ah?" Vivienne seemed a little confused about this sentence.
Luo Xue raised her eyebrows and immediately said, "I heard that Lord Duke Tulip originally came from the family of Wu Xun. I think there must be some rooms in this castle dedicated to displaying weapons. You can take me to see Right? "
"Weapon?" Vivienne stayed ... Would this beautiful, fragile person be interested in weapons?
But the guest's request is the honor of the host. Vivian could only rise her spirits, left the banquet hall with falling snow, and passed through the center of the castle. Came to the door of a room on the other side.
Gently opened the door, and Vivian spit out her tongue: "This is the only weapon showroom in the castle. Du Wei, he doesn't really like martial arts. So ... we don't have many weapons Collectibles. "
Into this room, there is still a lot of space inside. On the high metal shelf in the middle, there is a spear with a surprising shape! This spear exudes a faint black light all over the body, which is made of fine iron.
And it is clear that this long spear. It's a fake. It is a one-to-one sample modeled after the legendary knight's gun "Lonchinus Spear".
It is not uncommon for many nobles to collect weapons in their homes, even if they are just arty.
But Luo Xue saw it, but a strange light flashed in his eyes.
He walked slowly, even reaching out his hand, stroking slowly on the spear. With his slender fingers, he leaned over the spear. It's as soft as a musician's fingers playing the organ.
For a long time, Luo Xue sighed longly: "The spear of Longchinus ... the legendary warrior's strongest artifact, the real artifact ... the goddess' most loyal and powerful one The legendary saintly martial arts is using this spear to defeat the enemy of the goddess. Those ... other gods. This is a spear covered with the blood of the gods ... "
Vivien blinked, and Luo Xue said these words in a low voice, as if talking to herself, Vivien only heard for a little while. I don't quite understand what the other person said.
Luo Xue returned to God, and immediately released his hand, and turned to look at the surrounding walls.
Du Wei ’s business shop in the Empire was made by selling various high-end weapons, so naturally there are a few beautiful masterpieces. It's just that these things are far more gorgeous than practical. Seemingly gorgeous, it's actually fragile. For example, those armors, hollow ground patterns, it is difficult to say how much real defense power they can have.
But ... this style is gorgeous and lifeless. Instead, it largely meets the taste of the elves. Luo Xue looked at the past one by one, and was actually quite interested, even from time to time to comment on some of the flaws, and not from the perspective of weapons to evaluate the art.
"If this sculpture is three points deep, the overall effect will be more ..."
After looking at seven or eight items, Luo Xue's eyes fell on the longest sword in the middle of the wall in this room.
This is the tallest weapon rack in the room. On both sides of it stands two gold one-person shields with flame tulip carvings.
What doesn't match this gorgeous setting. The sword in the middle. It seemed too mediocre.
The scabbard is the finest metal, and it also includes the finest animal skin. However, it seems that the age is a little old, there are some scratches on the metal scabbard, and even though the animal skin has been well maintained, it is also slightly denitrated.
The ribs on the hilt are designed to give the sword holder more control over the weapon ...
This is not a collectible, it ’s like a real weapon ... But it is strange that in this gorgeous weapon-collection house, the only real weapon seems to be nothing. Outstanding things.
This is just an ordinary sword.
Luo Xue seemed a little curious. He couldn't help but want to reach out and touch the handle of the sword, and even wanted to pull it out and take a closer look at what is special about this sword. It can be placed in the most important position in this room?
Just before his hand touched the hilt of the sword ...
Behind the door, a quiet voice came in, with a touch of laziness.
"Sorry, you can't touch that sword."
With this voice, one walked in slowly.
Hearing this voice, the expression on Vivian's face changed from shock to instant joy. She immediately turned around, stared at the person inconceivably, and finally exclaimed.
"Ah! Du, Du Wei ... you, are you back?!"
"Yes, I'm back." Du Wei's smile seemed to hide a trace of exhaustion, came over, first gently wrapped his little fiancee's waist, and then calmly stared at the falling snow.
Du Wei's eyes are as deep as the sea without revealing the slightest change of mind.
The two looked at each other.
"Hello, you must be Grandpa Tulip, I am falling snow." The elven king said slowly.
"Oh ... I knew your name from the people before you came in, distinguished guest." Du Wei nodded, but then he suddenly asked a question straight out.
"Uh ... forgive me." Du Wei grabbed the back of his head and laughed, "This ... makes me very confused, are you a man or a woman?"
