City of Sin: At the 76th banquet


The magic clock points at night, and Faust is also shrouded in darkness. However, the night of Faust is not black and white, but colorful. At the two ends of the sky, the fourth string of Dark Blue Moon and the fifth string of Violet Moon are suspended, and blue and purple moonlight are intertwined and spread.

I do n’t know if it is to prove that this world really exists. If you walk out of the Faust gate at this time and look up at the night sky of Eternal Plains, the sky farther away than the Faust sky visual effect also hangs the fourth and fifth lunar, perhaps because Too long, the colorful moonlight cannot cross this distance, so the night of Norland Continent is black and white.

The light belt is still suspended above the Faust regardless of day and night, and slowly rotates along the mysterious trajectory. The seven round moons also continue to swim with the light belt, and the running trajectory implies a certain rule, but since occupying Faust, humans have never been able to receive Enlightenment to reveal the secret of 7 months rainbow. Tonight is blue and Violet Moon, the corresponding fourth and fifth strings on the 7 months rainbow are much dimmer. But no matter what time, the seventh month of the red gold moon is always the dimest, except for a few days in a year, ordinary people can hardly see its existence.

The cloud layer surrounding Faust is actually a very large Magic Array. Its existence makes the climate in Faust warm and stable in all seasons, which is completely different from the Eternal Plains's killing cold. At night, in the diffuse cloud, occasionally there will be a magic thread radiating a ray of light. Thousands of 10 million/whatever happens million magic silk threads converge together, so that the cloud also has seven colors of brilliance. So Faust at night is gorgeous.

The floating islands on the high-level track float lonely and silently, while the floating islands on the sixth and seventh floors are brightly lit. Here gathers all the powerful families of Sacred Alliance, every minute and every second countless conspiracies and transactions are brewing and happening. And the place of conspiracy and trading is nothing more than secret rooms and banquets. Therefore, there are numerous secret rooms on each floating island, and various banquets are held almost every night.

Even Archeron Family is no exception.

Tonight ’s banquet was small and large, held in a building outside the castle near the edge of the floating island.

This three-story building was originally designed for large-scale banquets or gatherings. Outside the building, a garden was even built according to the habits of ordinary nobles. On the first and second floors, the north side is a large room with movable partitions, which can be flexibly divided into various use halls according to the needs of use, and the south side is a lounge of different sizes. Half of the third floor is the terrace, facing the island. The roof is designed as a rooftop style, where you can enjoy the beautiful views of other floating islands and Faust.

Now all the rooms on the north side of the ground floor have been opened into the whole hall, which is brightly lit, and the long tables on both sides are filled with food. Take away the empty glass again.

In the corner, a band is playing vigorously, but the standard is not so perfect. However, the guests did not care about music and wine, but the opportunity to talk to each other.

After the corridor outside the lobby, eight lounges of different sizes were opened today, and there are more lounges on the second floor. These private spaces provide the necessary convenience for those who need it, they can talk and cheat. If it is the latter, many people are more fond of outdoor shaded gardens. Although the chance of being broken is much greater, the stimulation will be much greater, not to mention that most people do not care about being seen.

Archeron Family's banquet tonight belongs to the younger generation, neither Gordon nor his legendary thirteen knights appeared. Dozens of young people in the hall are gathering together in twos and threes, talking and laughing while consuming food and wine. Of course, on this occasion, we are talking about semi-open topics in small circles. The real negotiations and transactions are conducted in the lounge or even the secret room.

In addition to the 14 families on the floating island, there are still many members of the Sacred Alliance family who have settled or set up liaison offices in the main ground area of ​​Faust. However, only the fourteen families occupying the floating island are the privileged giants in Faust. So although Archeron is regarded as an upstart, the invitation to get Archeron Family banquet is still regarded as a status symbol. Especially after Gordon captured the 7-3 floating island in one fell swoop, all Faust families clearly realized the Archeron Family's combat power.

Due to the use of Archeron to block the upstart family ’s conspiracy to settle in Faust, those old families have split up, and many have begun to turn to Gordon in an attempt to tie this murderous beast in the context of banquets and conference halls. Let it aim its sharp teeth and fangs at enemies outside alliance.

until Gordon Successfully stationed Faust , Archeron It just looks like a little family. Many fighting abroad Archeron Sent the younger generation of their branch to Faust . The first is to open their eyes, the second is to get better protection and better development opportunities, and finally the more opportunities to choose a partner. However, Ken sent the younger generation to be mixed on the mainland, which is not very satisfactory Archeron And those limelight Zhengjin's people simply ignored it Gordon , And even a few have accelerated the pace of expansion, quite promising Gordon Instead of the idea.

There are roughly ten young Archeron in the lobby, but Richard is not here. He is now in a small banquet hall on the top floor, this is the real banquet place tonight.

The banquet hall area is not big, but the decoration is unique. The ground and walls are decorated with volcanic rocks, and the lighting is a burning torch on the wall. Even the details of the decoration are metal and ore, and the wall hangings and curtains commonly used by nobles are completely invisible. The temperature in the room is very high, and there is a faint smell of Liu Huang, which is similar to the volcanic environment of the family cemetery, but there is no such extreme heat and harshness.

Except for Richard, there are four boys and nine girls standing in the banquet hall, all between the ages of 13 and 18. They naturally divided into three small circles, and they seemed to be familiar with each other. There are two half-brothers and three sisters of Richard, and the rest are the younger generation of the branch family. Their common feature is that they do not yet have a ‘partner’.

The boys and girls are talking freely, and the topic is nothing more than war and sex. This dinner was originally a party of choice. In addition to Richard, Wolin, Wennington, the sons of these two Gordons, and the two adult daughters of Veronica and Demi, and Gordon also have their own right to choose partners. However, the right to choose is only limited to a limited range. They only have a part of the rights. After seeing the object you want to choose, you need to tell the family senior to decide whether they can be with the partner you want.

For Richard, it can be specified arbitrarily. So they all know that the real protagonist tonight is Richard. There are only two outliers in the banquet hall, one is Richard, he is standing alone in the corner of the hall. The other is a girl who looks weak and sits quietly on the sofa in the other corner.
