Chapter 330 The King's Banquet I

The core location of the Emerald City is naturally the Emerald Square. This large square, which can accommodate thousands of people, not only makes the locals proud of it, but even the envoys of Gaosai and Xiti are full of praise.

This made all the emerald people feel a kind of honor.

Starting from the Emerald Square to the east, after passing a slope about two kilometers away and guarded by hundreds of guards, you will be able to see an ancient castle.

This castle is not quite the same as the castle in the traditional sense of emerald.

In addition to being taller, the shape of this castle is not a traditional spire shape, but a curved dome shape.

There are three domes at the highest point, with slight differences in height, arranged in the shape of a 'mountain'.

The emerald green, full of life luster, shines brightly when the night comes.

This does not rely on magic crystals, but simply absorbs the radiance from the sun during the day, and then releases it at night; not only the entire castle is shrouded in brilliance, even the Emerald City, and even places farther away are covered by it. shines.

And here is the emerald palace.

The emerald green light emanating from the top of the castle, where the emerald kings of the past dynasties rule, means to bring vitality and vitality to the entire emerald.

Bathed in this emerald green, Dean squinted his eyes and waited quietly. He was riding the war horse that originally belonged to the Minister of Military Affairs. He was dressed in heavy armor, and he looked more and more heroic, especially When the 【Imitation. Dragon Head Sword】appeared behind him, the surrounding guards, who had already received the news, were cautiously confronting Lord Zelgang one by one.

Battle of the day. It has already spread throughout the Emerald City.

What followed was Dean's fame.

different from before. Simply think that Dean is lucky or something.

this time. People clearly realized the strength of this young man, as well as... tyranny!

Those more than 500 heads were piled up at the gate of Bugle Town just like that, enough to make anyone who saw them feel a tremor in their hearts, and then, the two battled.

Those who did not see it with their own eyes heard the "reporting" of those who saw it with their own eyes.

A heartfelt fear,

began to appear in their hearts.

therefore. When they saw Dean, who had caused all this, appear, the guards suddenly became frightened.

Even though they knew clearly that Dean in front of them was here to attend His Majesty's dinner party and had an invitation card, it did not reassure them at all.

With that cautious look, it seemed that Dean would explode and hurt someone at any time.

And this appearance naturally made Lauder, who was following Dean, show a look of disdain - although he did not specify how many people he would bring to the young king's dinner, according to etiquette, he could only bring one A personal attendant. And guards with no more than ten people.

Dean knew this well, and it was also ordered by the Grand Duke Swordsman.

Dean didn't mean to despise the young king - although he looked down on him a bit. However, it was still done according to etiquette.

Lauder followed as a bodyguard.

Ten young men selected from the Fei Chalun Knights will serve as bodyguards.

Chad and Maher are naturally listed.

Similarly, the young people of the Feichalun Knights are naturally very excited to be able to participate in the king's dinner; however, they also understand that they cannot embarrass their adults.

Therefore, no matter how excited, it is also a solemn look.

And with such solemnity, a tempered military atmosphere began to appear on these young people, making people passing by around them subconsciously look at them twice more.

After all, this aura was different from the teams they had seen in the past.

However, when they saw Dean, especially the appearance of the heavy armor and giant sword, these passers-by immediately thought of something, immediately turned pale, lowered their heads, and hurried away.

Of course, not everyone looks like this——

Some guests who were also invited by the young king were also waiting in the Emerald Square, and some of them glared at Dean and his party.

However, when Lauder's vicious eyes swept over, these people immediately lowered their heads, or simply put on a smile.

It's a pity that Lauder, who is a former tax official, knows such tricks all too well.

He saw the true faces of these people very clearly.

Then, he remembered the family crests of these people one by one in his heart.

Although Lauder has learned as much as possible, there are so many nobles in the Emerald City that until now, Lauder, who has an outstanding memory, still cannot clearly remember the clan emblems of all the nobles in the Emerald City.

But this does not hinder his work -

Help your adults handle official documents and distinguish enemies!

When your own adults are in need, they will pounce on them like a vicious dog and bite them to death!

Lauder, who simply remembers these two items, has a warm and sincere smile on his face, responding to those evil-minded guys.

Roll, roll!

With the sound of the wheels, a carriage appeared behind the Emerald Plaza, then passed through the crowd and stopped beside Dean and his party.

Immediately, the carriage attracted the attention of most people present.

They were very curious, who would dare to stand side by side with that 'butcher'.

but. When they saw the family crest on the carriage clearly, these people immediately fell silent!

Minister of Finance, the crest of the Kuster family!

After the death of the Minister of Military Affairs this morning, this lord seems to have become the dominant family in the entire Emerald City, and as this lord, he can naturally be ranked alongside the 'butcher'.

Many people even maliciously speculated that with the ferocity of the 'butcher', he naturally needed to find a reliable 'master' in order to continue to be 'active' - and as the Minister of Finance, it seemed just right.

Of course, you need to be vigilant at all times, this lord's 'crossing the river and tearing down the bridge'!

Although the military minister lost his life this morning. But some messages left by him during his lifetime. But still fermenting. And, it is accepted by people.

Moreover, it seems that because of the death of the Minister of Military Affairs, the rumors developed from such news have become facts.

However, such malicious speculation is nothing to Dean and the Minister of Finance.

even. Neither of them cares.

To put it simply, these people are not seen by the two of them at all. After all, they are all villains who can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour——

"Good evening, Dean!"

The windows of the carriage opened, and the smiling face of the Chancellor of the Exchequer appeared behind him.

"Good evening, Your Excellency Kuster!"

Dean nodded slightly in response.

The two sides started like friends, and started a small chat while waiting.

Some meaningless.

No one mentioned what happened today, and similarly, for some "interests" secretly left by the minister of military affairs. Neither was mentioned.

As for the bright side?

With the help of Long Lang, Dean has already earned it in his own pocket.

"Dean, what do you think of the maritime trade?"

Unexpected. After a small chat, the Minister of Finance said suddenly.

"I don't know much about maritime trade!"

Dean answered directly.

Of course, there is a hint of humility in such an answer. After all, Dean still has a good understanding of the ports connecting Jade, Gaosai, Xiti, and the Overseas Freedom Federation. Some of these commodities are in high demand. Dean, who used to be a black market dealer, also knew it clearly.

However, in the face of a sudden inquiry from the Minister of Finance.

Dean was instinctively humble.

Sometimes, hiding clumsiness does not necessarily make you look clumsy.

However, if you show off too high, people will definitely look at you like an idiot—especially when your show off is a 'botched performance'.

"Are you being too modest, you must know that the Zelgon family has the most excellent sailing skills..."

The Minister of Finance said with a smile while checking Dean's expression.

The calm expression disappointed the finance minister once again.

He has never encountered such an opponent.

At a young age, at any time, he will always be watertight. Even some seasoned businessmen may not be able to match that kind of patience and city government.

The previous chats and temptations made him feel a little helpless.

"The Wolfe family has a fleet - similar to armed merchant ships!"

In the end, the Minister of Finance chose to end the irrelevant temptation, and under the urging of time, he said directly.

Although this will make him lose a certain amount of initiative, it's better than wasting it for nothing, right?

"Armed merchant ship? What do you mean?"

Dean muttered the word 'armed merchant ship' playfully, and then looked at the Minister of Finance calmly.

Armed merchant ships, although there is the word merchant ship, but the prefix armed is even more important; after all, this indicates that they are merchants at one time, and... pirates at another time!

As for pirates, Dean has always had reservations.

Not only is Grand Duke Emerald's attack on pirates, but also because pirates are just like their counterparts on land, representatives of dishonesty and capriciousness.

"There are about ten armed merchant ships, including two Galen ships!"

The Minister of Finance spoke in a low voice.

"Two Galen ships!"

Dean narrowed his eyes for a moment, his fleeting eyes were deep and cold, and then, as soon as he raised his hand, the young people of the Fechalen Knights scattered around.

The middle-aged subordinate of the Minister of Finance also left the carriage and stood outside the carriage, acting as a guard.
