Du Dian was slightly angry in his heart, thinking that it was you who robbed me of the way, and even turned around and said that I don't have eyes? However, thinking of Pete's instructions, he still resisted the urge to refute, and said, "Mr. Pete brought me here."
"Who is Bate?" The middle-aged nobleman frowned, "Is there any rules for bringing a scavenger here?"
"Mr. Metz?" At this moment, a voice came from behind. Du Dian and the middle-aged nobleman looked together. It was the tough old man Du Dian saw in the office today. He put on a black gentleman's suit and stood beside him. A middle-aged lady held his arm, and the two were affectionate, as if they were husband and wife.
At this time, the old man saw Du Dian and said in surprise: "Little guy, what are you doing at this door, didn't Pete come with you?"
Du Dian said honestly: "Mr. Pete just went in."
At this time, the middle-aged nobleman named Metz frowned and said, "Lao Luo, do you know him?"
The old man smiled and said, "I just met him. This little guy is the seed of this year's scavengers, and he will have to rely on Mr. Metz to take care of him in the future."
"So that's how it is." Metz seemed to understand, and glanced at Du Dian: "Little guy, choose our Mellon consortium, you have a vision, and look at it when you walk in the future, don't be in a hurry, there are no rules at all."
Du Dian's face was ugly, and his fists were tightly clenched in his sleeves.
The old man hurriedly said: "Little guy, apologize to Mr. Metz, go in first, and pay attention to it in the future, the banquet is about to start, don't delay at the door." Then, he blinked Du Dian and signaled He made a mistake and it was over.
Du Dian looked at the trace of anxiety on his face, knowing that he was helping himself, and also knowing that as long as he apologized, this little episode would pass, but he didn't feel half happy in his heart, but felt that his body and limbs were gradually cooling down. At this moment, he suddenly realized that the right or wrong of a matter has nothing to do with the matter itself, what is right or wrong depends on each other's identities and status!
And these two are the difference in strength between the two sides!
He suddenly understood that the truth is only in the hands of powerful people!
"I'm sorry..." He lowered his head and said apologetic words. Behind him was the magnificent lights in the hall and the melodious music. His face was hidden in the shadows, and what he saw were the exquisite boots of the other party.
Then he saw the boots move, turned and entered the hall.
The old man seemed to glance at him, but he didn't say anything, and followed him in.
"These civilians, no matter how well they are tuned and taught, they will never learn to behave..." Mace's voice came to his ears from behind, followed by the old man's echoing laughter. Du Dian still lowered his head and clenched his fists. After a long time, he raised his head slightly and looked at the wide manor in front of him and the lanterns in front of him. Much more free.
At this time, another noble carriage came galloping.
Du Dian looked back silently, did not continue to stay at the door, turned and entered the hall.
The spacious and huge hall was illuminated by oil lamps like daytime. I saw a large number of domestic servants carrying fine wine and cut fruits, shuttling back and forth in the hall, and melodious piano music came from the front of the hall. Delicate and elegant nobles stood chatting together in small groups.
After the previous incident, Du Dian was no longer in the mood to enjoy this rare luxury party at this moment. He came to the window sill with the least people, leaned against the window, and watched the people coming and going in the hall. A flowing picture scroll was turning before his eyes, and his heart was not disturbed, and he was even slightly bored, until suddenly two figures in black uniforms appeared in his line of sight, which interrupted his trance.
"Hunter?" Du Dian immediately recognized the medal on the shoulders of the man and woman, not the outline of a huge wall of scavengers, but a black falcon.
I saw that the two hunters were extremely young, about seventeen or eighteen years old. After entering the banquet, when they passed by many nobles along the way, these nobles greeted them proactively, obviously they had known each other for a long time.
Soon, the two hunters came to the center of the banquet, where there were several middle-aged nobles standing there, and the Metz who Du Dian apologized earlier was also standing there, next to him was an obese lady, and a man with A lean, middle-aged man with a mustache.
After the two hunters passed by, several middle-aged nobles chatted with them with a smile. The distance was too far, and Du Dian couldn't hear what they said, but it could be seen that the two hunters had a high status in front of the nobles. .
"Hunter..." Du Dian's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly thought of Rothyard's alchemy notes, one of which recorded a thing that impressed him deeply, that is, the vivisection of the hunter!
What happened was that a young hunter received a mission and came to hunt him down. In the end, he used the poison made by the potion master to subdue him and regarded it as his own experimental product. Countless pieces of meat.
Roseyard found the ingredients of the alien flesh and blood from the hunter's body, which inspired him a lot, and it was also one of the factors for his success in certifying the three-star alchemist.
"Hey, scavengers?" Just as Du Dian was thinking, a body suddenly affected him.
Du Dian turned his head to look, and the person who was talking was a white-haired old man with a kind face, holding a walking stick of some age, with a thumb-sized emerald embedded in the top, and the clothes on his body were relatively simple.
"Can you come to the party here, are you the seed target of the consortium?" the white-haired old man smiled.
Du Dian nodded slightly and said, "You are?"
The white-haired old man smiled and said, "I'm Flynn Lane. Nice to meet you."
"Lian?" Du Dian's eyes moved, and the place where the desert exam took place three years ago seemed to be the territory of a noble named Ryan.
Noticing the slight change on Du Dian's face, the white-haired old man said with a smile: "You must have heard about some things about our Ryan family, but those are old things, so don't mention it. But you, are you interested in becoming a knight of our Ryan family? "
"Knight?" Du Dian was taken aback. He was no longer the one who didn't know anything three years ago. After studying hard in the library for the past three years, his understanding of the world became clear. The so-called knight is not It's just a simple title, but only after professional training and the strict assessment of the Knights' Hall can one obtain the Knight's Certificate.
"I didn't make it clear." The white-haired old man said: "It's just a name in the establishment. Our family will give you the salary of an official knight, and you only need to help our Ryan family explore the wilderness once a year."
Du Dian immediately understood his purpose, and said strangely: "This should not be in accordance with the contract, can I still go out to pick up waste for your family alone?"
"Of course." The white-haired old man said with a smile: "It's just that this is a private act, and you need to bear the toll of the huge wall. In fact, many nobles have cultivated some scavengers privately. In comparison, we can also make some profits outside the giant wall. You can rest assured that the toll fee for the giant wall will be provided by our family."
