Arcane brilliance, shining forever

Chapter 201 'Instigating Rebellion' Marquis

The night of Yuanfan Port is full of flowers, and everywhere is full of feasting and feasting.

In front of the Marquis Mansion, a gorgeous carriage made of golden nanmu slowly stopped. This is a carriage specially used by the Marquis Mansion to pick up and drop off distinguished guests.

Lando got off the carriage, and Salim had been waiting at the door for a long time.

Two legends?

Lando keenly sensed that besides Salim in front of him, there was also a legendary powerhouse in the Marquis's mansion.

"Mr. Salem, you don't have to meet me at the door in person." Lando said with some surprise.

"Mr. Lando's life-saving grace that day, I dare not forget." Salim said with a smile.

Lando nodded without saying much, and entered the Marquis's mansion led by Salem.

Along the way, Lando gasped in admiration, Marquis Pierce is worthy of being the uncrowned king of the Eastern Realm, this word is not just talk.

Although the Brendan family is in decline, it is still the Earl's family. It owns a large territory and industry, and has a lot of voice in Yuanfan Port. The only pity is that there is no legendary strongman belonging to the family. Family incompatibility is also the main reason for the decline of the family.

But as far as Lando knows, there are five senior professionals working for Brendan in Port of Far Sail alone, and two of them are guarding Brendan every day. , and the other three are located in their important industries in Yuanfan Port. In the territory, this number will only increase.

And now, during the time that Lando entered the Marquis's Mansion, he has seen three waves of patrollers, all led by senior professionals. You must know that Lando has only walked a quarter of the way to the Marquis's Mansion, and since he is Patrolmen, of course, need to change guards. With such a simple calculation, we can roughly understand the background of the Marquis family.

All the way to the banquet hall, the layout of the banquet hall seems to be very simple, but it is luxurious in a low-key way.

This time it was considered a private banquet, so apart from the Marquis who had met once, only the butler and many servants were left in the banquet hall.

To Lando's surprise, another legendary strongman he sensed before was actually the butler in front of him!As for the Marquis himself, he had confirmed it the last time we met, and he was a senior professional.

"Mr. Lando, the dragon slayer, is here, it really makes my little Marquis's mansion flourish!" Marquis Pierce said with a big laugh when he saw Lando.

"Where, it is my honor to meet the Marquis Pierce. I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time!" Lando also said politely.

When the host and guest arrived, the dinner began naturally. During the period, Marquis Pierce seemed to be very interested in Lando's travels and adventures, and kept talking about this topic with him, asking about Lando's adventures.

While talking about various adventures, Lando tasted delicious food. It has to be said that the food in the Marquis Mansion is very suitable for Lando's taste, while he was thinking about how to start.

In fact, Lando wanted to do something when he first entered the banquet hall, but seeing a butler at the legendary level made it a bit difficult for him. If a domestic servant of this level disappeared or died for no reason, it would definitely arouse the Marquis family's doubts and concerns. Guess, but if he does it, Lando can't confuse the other party to the point of ignorance, so he thinks about the pros and cons first.

After a long time, Lando suddenly stopped talking, put down the silver tableware in his hand, picked up the crystal cup, gently shook the red wine in it, and let out a sigh.

Marquis Pierce asked suspiciously: "What's the matter, Mr. Lando, is the dish not to your liking, do you want me to ask the kitchen to order something else?"

Lando smiled and said, "No, I just think my intelligence should be used for research instead of being wasted on such trivial matters. Let you solve this kind of problem by yourself."

Marquis Pierce frowned suspiciously, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared. Although he didn't understand the other party's meaning, the Marquis was instinctively displeased by this casual and commanding tone.

"Mr. Lando, are you drunk? Why don't you go back and rest first?" Marquis Pierce issued an order to evict the guest coldly.

The butler also walked up to the Marquis at this time, and faintly protected the Marquis Pierce behind him, with a gentle but formulaic smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Lando, this way please."

After taking a sip of the wine in his glass, Lando stood up with a smile. Following that, the entire banquet hall was instantly filled with mist. The servants in the banquet hall were all in a state of confusion at the same time. All turned a blind eye, only Salim, who had already returned to his residence in the Marquis's Mansion, seemed to be aware of it, looked in the direction of the banquet hall suspiciously, hesitated for a while, after all, was a little worried, gave up the plan to go back to the room to rest, and walked towards the banquet hall. Turn back and go.

Marquis Pierce didn't expect that Lando would dare to do anything. He said angrily, "Lando, what on earth do you want? Do you think you can do whatever you want with your strength? That's not how games are played. Even if you kidnap me today or kill me It is useless for me, it will only push you into the opposite of all the nobles and forces in the Eastern Region, and the Marquis family is not my voice, if what I do is not in line with the interests of the family, I will not get support, and even will be deposed as Marquis."

What Marquis Pierce said was well-founded. If Lando really wanted to hijack him to do things for him, it would be impossible as he said.

Lando naturally believed the words of Marquis Pierce. When he was preparing to set Yuanfan Port as the first development goal, the first thing he considered was to let Xiao Liuli erode Marquis Pierce, but after investigation and thinking, he gave up on this. idea.

Because it is true that as Marquis Pierce said, the Marquis family is not Pierce’s monopoly, and there are many conflicts of interest in it. Even if he can unknowingly make Marquis Pierce his own, even if he directly shows his legendary strength and wants to use the power of the Marquis family for his own sake. I am afraid that what he uses will take a long time to wrangle, and it may even cause other people to question it.

As for Lando, his preliminary plan did not require much power. Then, the family strength was weakened, but Earl Brendan, who was still a veteran nobleman and had full right to speak, entered Lando's field of vision. There is the next series of operations.

Lando came back to his senses and said: "This is really not my strong point, so I said, is this something you should worry about?"

Similar words came out of Lando's mouth again. For some reason, Marquis Pierce felt a chill in his heart, feeling that something extremely bad was about to happen!

'boom! ~'

The butler couldn't bear it any longer at this moment, and punched out, powerful life energy gushing out, no matter whether Lando hides or not hides, it's right in his arms.

If Lando didn't dodge, it would be just enough to test his depth. If Lando chose to dodge, this punch would just break through the blockage of the fog and create a movement to attract the attention of the guards outside.

But Lando's response was beyond the housekeeper's expectations. The former didn't move. When the powerful energy impact came to Lando, it became slower and slower until it stopped completely. Lando poked it lightly, like a balloon Broken and gone.

Lando took a step forward and had already arrived in front of Marquis Pierce. The latter was completely unable to make any movements. He could only watch helplessly as Lando took out a colorful crystal from his bosom and inserted it into his heart, bit by bit. Not included.

The butler's expression changed the moment Lando disappeared, and he turned around and rushed towards Marquis Pierce without thinking, but the distance that was normally within one step was like a natural barrier, no matter how hard the butler ran, he couldn't reach it.

Marquis Pierce felt his spirit being eroded a little bit. At the last moment when he lost consciousness, what he saw was Lando's calm face, and his butler running wildly like in slow motion, but a little bit frozen.

…………

The door of the banquet hall was pushed open with a bang, and a hurried figure of Salim appeared outside the door, accompanied by guards following him.

The conversation between Marquis Pierce and Lando came to an abrupt end, and they all turned their heads to look. The former's doubts were mixed with some displeasure, while the latter's doubts were more puzzled.

The scene in front of him gave Salim a 'thump' in his heart. He originally felt that something was wrong and wanted to come to the banquet hall just in case, but he suddenly thought of the flashing power in the direction of the banquet hall when he walked halfway. It seemed to be similar to the power that suddenly appeared when Lando was besieged by mysterious people on the day of the dragon slaying, so he directly rushed into the door regardless of the guard's obstruction.

In Salim's mind, there are only two possibilities. Either this power belongs to Lando, and the latter wants to be unfavorable to Marquis Pierce, or this power was used to deal with Lando's group last time, and they are coming to deal with Lando again. , the Marquis Pierce will be affected, no matter which way he slams into the door, he must be right.

But the scene in front of him clearly showed that Marquis Pierce and Lando had a very happy conversation, and there was no sign that Lando had made a move or was invaded by other forces.

Marquis Pierce said flatly: "Salim, what's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?!"

Salim smiled wryly in his heart, knowing that although Marquis Pierce's tone was flat, he must be a little angry, but how could he say, 'I sensed that you might be in danger, so I came to rescue you'? , if these words are spoken out, not only will the Marquis Pierce not be satisfied, but I am afraid that the 'savior' Lando will be offended to death.

Suddenly Salim noticed that the butler was not in the banquet hall, he had an idea and said, "I thought of something and wanted to talk to the butler, so... I hope Lord Marquis and Lord Lando will forgive me."

The butler next to Marquis Pierce is naturally not an ordinary butler, and his strength at the legendary level is stronger than that of Salim, so Salim has always addressed this butler as an 'adult'.

This answer obviously didn't satisfy Marquis Pierce, but he frowned, as if he didn't ask for more responsibility due to the presence of Lando, an 'outsider', but said indifferently: "Something suddenly occurred to me, and I asked the steward to go back to deal with it. If you have something to say, wait for him to come back and talk about it."

Although this answer was somewhat unexpected, Salem was in no mood to think about other things at this time. Seeing the Marquis Pierce waving his hand at him, he immediately saluted the two of them as if he had received an amnesty and then left.

When the door was closing, Salim heard the two people in the banquet hall start talking again, with a posture of talking by candlelight at night, and secretly scolded himself for being nervous. Could it be the sequelae left by the battle of the dragon slaying? !

With such doubts, Salim went back to his room and decided to take a good rest to relieve the pressure during this period.

When the door of the banquet hall was closed again, a thin mist permeated the entire banquet hall again. In the eyes of the servants standing there, Marquis Pierce was still talking about adventure-related topics with Dragon Slayer Lando.

"Then what's next? This kind of legendary old servant disappears for no reason, surely it can't be easily fooled around?" Lando asked.

"Of course, the butler has served in the Marquis family for more than 100 years. It seems that it is because he made a contract with 'my' grandfather. Such a loyal and legendary powerhouse is more important than me, the current Marquis, to some extent. , of course it is impossible to fool around casually," said Marquis Pierce.

These words made Lando a little distressed: "Then what should I do, the Eastern Territory is my base, so there must be no chaos here!"

"Don't worry, there is still a solution." Marquis Pierce said with a smile.

"Oh? Tell me!" Lando raised his interest.

"Currently, the best way is...to procrastinate!" said Marquis Pierce affirmatively.

"Procrastinate?" Lando seemed to understand what the other party meant.

"The butler is the pillar of the Marquis family, and he usually takes orders from 'I' who is the Marquis. There have been times when difficult incidents occurred, and the butler was asked to go out to handle errands and not return for a few months. The time is almost enough for me to clean up the Marquis family, and time is on our side." Marquis Pierce said firmly.

"Well, it's really good, then I'll leave this matter to you." After finishing speaking, Lando stood up and stretched his waist: "The food is good, and it suits my taste. Let the kitchen do more tricks in the future. I'm tired, let's go rest first."

As a matter of course, Lando stayed at the Marquis's Mansion.

Time flies, a month has passed.

During this period of time, Marquis Pierce was also running in Far Sail Harbor and Marquis Territory. Marquis Pierce himself was amazing, and he was completely different from a 'Muggle' like Brendan. In the past, he allowed his family to divide his power. It is mainly for the overall interests and strength of the family, and he is also confident that if something special happens, he can easily take back the authority that was released.

Just like what he's doing now.

Marquis Territory, in the castle of the Marquis family, Marquis Pierce is slowly cutting his steak while listening to his subordinates report on the current situation of the territory. After he activated the dark hands he had planted long ago, after a brief stalemate, he was still able to easily Taking back all the power of the territory and the family fully demonstrated the means and authority of the uncrowned king of the Eastern Realm.

Although there are also legendary strongmen and some elders in the family, they are all accustomed to the character of this powerful junior Marquis. Although they are puzzled by his sudden actions, they all choose to wait and see what he wants to do.

Just when Marquis Pierce was thinking about how to better help Lando.

"Bang!~"

The door was forced open again!
