A few days later, a grand wedding banquet was being held in the newly decorated banquet hall of Fergus Castle.
The flow of people was full of nobles who had good relations with the two families, or nobles who were enfeoffed.
Even the Sidney family sent brother and sister Saroyan and Polly to represent the Sidney family.
Of course, besides attending the wedding banquet, there are other purposes.
As for the Ford family who wanted to make friends with the Fergus family, they were personally led by Earl Ford, who was considered the highest-ranking person to arrive.
If before the conflict between the Fergus family and the Smalley family, the Fergus family could still be described as a family with earl potential, then after the conflict between the Fergus family and the Smalley family, it can no longer be described as a family with earl potential. .
Two mad-level blood beasts, those are two mad-level blood beasts!
With these two mad-level blood beasts, although the Fergus family is not an earl family, it is already an earl family.
He is fully capable of protesting against the Ford family and Smalley, and even makes the two families feel vaguely threatened.
Naturally, the Ford family would spare no effort to make friends with such a family.
Fortunately, the Ford family and the Fergus family have been on good terms recently. The Smalley family should really have a headache. After offending such a powerful enemy, I wonder if they can sleep well.
Bernal and Bernice Evelyn, the newlyweds, stood in the center of the banquet hall and became the focus of everyone's attention and blessings.
Everyone in the Fergus family was busy.
Even Gray was forced to shuttle through the banquet hall to liven up the atmosphere in the banquet hall.
Many aristocratic ladies approached him at the airport, making his face freeze with laughter.
Fortunately, today's protagonists are Bernal and Bernice Evelyn, as well as Saroyan and Pearly, two important figures from the Sidney family, as well as heavyweights like Earl Ford, It relieved a lot of pressure.
From yesterday to today, he has basically been idle.
Yesterday morning, he went to the Evelyn family to greet the bride. After returning to the Fergus family today, he was busy greeting the nobles who came to attend the wedding.
He felt even more tired than practicing, so he found a remote table and sat down, preparing to be lazy.
"What, are you tired?"
Behind him, a voice unexpectedly sounded. He turned around and saw a beautiful blond woman wearing a light blue dress walking towards him.
Seeing the visitor, Gray made no intention of getting up to greet him. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to sit down at the dining table.
"I'm so tired that I really don't want to move. I feel even more tired than a married person."
"Puch."
The visitor chuckled, sat down at the dining table with his skirt down, rolled his eyes and said.
"Is it so exaggerated?"
"You will know when your eldest brother gets married."
Gray shrugged.
The visitor, Pearly Sidney, was one of the two representatives sent by the Sidney family to attend the wedding.
Because the other party accompanied Master Dulu, he had lived in the Fergus family for more than half a month, and he was quite familiar with Gray, so Gray was too lazy to get up and say hello.
Of course, the most important thing is that I am too tired to move.
"Then it will be hard to wait. My eldest brother has very high standards."
Pearly glanced at Saroyan, who was surrounded by many noble ladies.
Like Bernal, Saroyan has also reached the age of marriage. Although he has been in contact with some women from noble families of equal status, Saroyan does not seem to have met the one he likes.
"I can tell."
Gray nodded.
Surrounded by many aristocratic ladies, many of them pretty, but although there was a smile on Saroyan's face, there was not much enthusiasm. Obviously, the next successor of the Sidney family has extraordinary vision. height of.
As if he noticed Gray's gaze, the other person looked this way. After apologizing to the noble ladies around him, he took the opportunity to run away and walked towards this side with red wine in his hand.
"Master Saroyan."
Seeing the other party coming, Gray picked up a glass of red wine, stood up, and touched the other party.
As an adult, he can naturally drink.
"Gray, you really shocked me. You actually became a Vicious Blood Warrior so quickly. You are going to take away my status as the number one genius of the Sidney Territory!"
Looking at Gray, Saroyan joked.
"Master Saroyan was joking."
Gray responded with a wry smile.
"I'm not kidding..."
After chatting for a while, Saroyan said in a joking and relaxed tone.
"I heard that the Fergus family has two mad-level blood beasts. When will you take me to see them?"
Gray's eyes moved slightly.
"If Master Saroyan is interested, you can do it now."
"I want to see too."
Soon, Gray led Saroyan and Pearly out of the banquet hall and walked towards the castle basement.
"Three, there are actually three?"
Arriving in the basement, with the light of the basement rune lamp, Saroyan and Polly couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
In the basement, there were actually three huge blood beasts.
Doesn't it mean that the Fergus family has a total of three mad-level blood beasts
"The Fergus family actually has three mad-level blood beasts?"
After being stunned for a moment, Saroyan and Pearly came back to their senses and looked at Gray in surprise.
"Go closer and touch their bodies."
In response to the two people's inquiries, Gray did not immediately answer, but prompted.
Doubts flashed across both of their faces, but they still approached a blood beast and reached out to touch each other.
They are not afraid that the mad-level blood beast will suddenly go crazy. As a child of the Marquis family, they naturally have some life-saving means. Not to mention fighting against the mad-level blood beast, there is no problem in protecting themselves in a short period of time.
“It’s so cold…”
As soon as she touched it, Pearly quickly withdrew her hand and looked at the blood beast in front of her in confusion.
The blood beast in front of him could not feel any body temperature at all, and his whole body was ice cold.
Saroyan narrowed his eyes, approached the blood beast's head, and carefully looked at the blood beast's eyes. After a moment, he raised his head and said in surprise.
"dead?"
"Yes, they are all dead. In fact, they are all blood beast corpses controlled by a magic weapon that I obtained from a ruins some time ago. There are four such blood beast corpses in total, and one is placed Outside the castle."
Gray nodded and explained.
After learning that the Sidney family would send Saroyan to attend the wedding, Gray and Viscount Fergus guessed that Saroyan's visit this time was not simply to attend the wedding, and probably not without testing the Fergus family's understanding of the wedding. The meaning of the attitude of the Sidney family.
After discussion, the two finally decided to inform the Sidney family of the "fact" that the mad-level blood beast was controlled by a magic weapon.
The other two mad-level blood beasts will be exposed sooner or later. A viscount family actually has four mad-level blood beasts. No matter how you look at it, it is absolutely abnormal. It is better to explain it all at once, so as to win Xi De. The favor of the Ni family.
If the Fergus family wants to become an earl family, they must have the mad blood warriors and sufficient military exploits. Those are only the most basic conditions. The most important thing is to gain the trust of the Sidney family.
If they couldn't get Sidney's trust, how could the Sidney family hand over a large area of territory to the Fergus family for management
"That's actually the case."
Hearing Gray's explanation, Pearly opened her mouth in surprise, while Saroyan had a look of surprise on his face.
His previous suspicions were confirmed, but the only thing that he didn't expect was that the Fergus family would actually tell such an important secret, which made him look at the Fergus family in a different light.
"Four mad blood beasts, aren't they four mad blood warriors?"
Pearly marveled.
"Of course it's impossible. After all, it's a blood beast corpse. It's definitely not as strong as a living blood beast, and it can't use the blood beast's abilities."
Gray shook his head.
"Gray, can you increase the number of controls?"
Saroyan raised his eyebrows.
"It has reached its limit. The number and level have reached the control limit. A total of twenty fierce-level blood beasts can be controlled, and a maximum of four mad-level blood beasts can be controlled."
Gray shook his head.
"really."
Saroyan was not surprised by Gray's answer. Regardless of the magic weapon or the blood beast's ability, there are limits. With the limit of four mad-level blood beasts, it is already a quite powerful magic weapon.
Finally, Saroyan and Pearly left the basement in surprise.
There was no requirement to control magic weapons.
Because they all knew in their hearts that it was beyond the bottom line of the Fergus family.
No family would hand over their family's final trump card to another family, even if the other family was an upper-class noble.
The feudal nobles were only subordinates of the upper-class nobles, not slaves. The relationship between the two was mutual assistance and mutual benefit. Even the upper-class nobles could not plunder the wealth of the feudal nobles.
Telling the existence of magic weapons has shown the goodwill of the Fergus family as feudal nobles. If they still ask for the magic weapons to be "handed over", it will only cause dissatisfaction and resistance from the feudal nobles.
In fact, this is exactly the case.
If they asked to see magic weapons, Gray would simply refuse.
Not being able to take it out is one thing. Even if you can take it out, you will never take it out. This is the bottom line of a family.
If it really gets serious, the worst possible outcome is giving up the territory and breaking away from the Sidney family.
You have the strength but are you afraid that you won’t be able to survive
Apart from anything else, relying on four mad-level blood beasts to hunt blood beasts and become a blood beast hunter-type family is enough to maintain the daily expenses of the Fergus family.
