through the dark road

Chapter 568 Noble Terminator

A group of craftsmen and formation masters who participated in the construction of the airship put away their small notebooks with regretful faces, and stepped aside.

After finally encountering an opportunity to ask the "inventor" of the airship for advice, they were cut off by their majesty the king. I felt so depressed, and even slandered in my heart:
The **** is just past noon, have a hammer dinner!
Mo Bei, who is not good at socializing, is also a little uncomfortable. He really hopes to skip the mission plot directly, but he can't refuse to refute King Ernstinger's face. He can only say politely:

"My companions are still in Harrogas, and the siege is getting worse, so I have to go back sooner."

Igor showed reverence, and said immediately:

"I understand that His Majesty the Grand Duke is anxious. Your Majesty should have thought of this too. He won't prolong the banquet too long. It's just that if we don't express our thanks, it will appear that we are too rude. If you don’t have time to catch your breath, why don’t you just eat something, and it won’t be too late to return to the battlefield after recovering your spirit.”

"okay then.."

Mo Bei really hasn't eaten anything decent since flying back and forth, and he is really hungry. Hearing what Igor said, he agreed.

"Please follow me!" Igor raised his hand sideways to lead Mo Bei away from the dock, and boarded an elegantly decorated four-wheeled animal-drawn cart.

Along the way, Mo Bei was looking at the two giant horned blue sheep pulling the cart. The last time he came to Enstinger and overlooked the village below from the tower outside the city, he had noticed this creature.

Seeing it up close now, I am even more amazed that this blue sheep can grow so majestic, the shoulder height is comparable to the Sharma in the previous world, and the body is more robust.

"This kind of pack beast plays a very important role on the road from Ernstinger to the garrison fortress. Its strength is not much worse than that of the southern earth mule beast, and it is faster. They are good at climbing mountains and ridges. Unique."

Igor, who was sitting by the side, saw that he was watching with great interest and full of curiosity, so he took the initiative to introduce:

"Before the heavy snow blocked the mountains, they could also carry goods across the mountains and go to Harrogas, but in this season, blue sheep can't stand the severe cold, so they can only use other methods."

"That's why you are eager to put the airship into use?" Mo Bei asked.

Igor smiled awkwardly:
"It is indeed too hasty, but it has caused a lot of trouble."

"I think there should be nothing wrong with the airship itself. If there is no targeted interception, it must be able to reach Harrogas smoothly."

"There was indeed no problem in the middle of the journey, but after all, we were negligent and did not conduct the most rigorous screening of the accompanying personnel."

Mo Bei didn't respond. He didn't know when these people would be wiped out, and he even doubted whether Lucien was still living in a certain corner.

At the same time, he thought of Nihlasek again. Even such a character would have their minds distorted. It is not surprising that new traitors appeared among thousands of job-changers, just like the one who was tired of the eternity. Fighting Lilith and Inaris.

Compared with the lifespan of human beings, this war is so long that it makes people feel hopeless, and there will inevitably be reasons for people to breed madness and rebellion.

Perhaps, this is also affected by the origin of their blood?
Not long after, the sound of the blue sheep's hooves kicking slowed down, and the car stopped immediately. Mo Bei looked out and found that he had come to a cave that was several times larger than the previous dock. In the center stands a palace made of metal and rock, the overall color is gray and black, and it looks quite fortified.

There is light pouring down from the top of the grotto, covering the whole palace, and actually dug through the mountain. Looking up, you can see the blue sky and white clouds outside.

It can be seen that this is the highest point of the whole city.

There were already neat queues waiting in front of the hall, and Igor and Mo Bei were welcomed into it.

The two walked straight into the main hall along the long corridor. Many princes and ministers had already gathered here, as well as waiters shuttled back and forth in groups, putting all kinds of wine and food on each table.

Mo Bei only felt that the scene was silent for a moment, and he became the focus of everyone's attention.

Standing on the throne was a man of medium stature who looked a bit stocky. He presumably was King Ernstinger whom he had never met before, Peyton III.

"Welcome! Your Excellency the brave and honorable Grand Duke! Thank you for coming from afar to save my people in Ernstig. Of course, in addition to thanking you, I must also pay you high respect for the warrior!"

Peyton III spoke with a smile on the scene, while Mo Beiyu walked towards the throne under the respectful guidance of the maid.

Because there was no one else talking in the hall, his boots were still clanging when they stepped on the carpet, almost becoming the only sound on the field.

It was only then that everyone noticed that this man was still wearing heavy armor, and there were many traces of fighting on it.On the other hand, everyone on our side was wearing exquisite robes or dresses, which made Grand Duke Lugoin look a bit out of place.

If someone else dared to go to the palace in such a fully armed manner, he would probably be kicked out immediately, and he would not be allowed to approach the throne.

However, no one dared to show banter or contempt on their faces. They all watched intently as Mo Bei walked up to the throne, greeted Peyton III, and was led to the seat at the bottom right of the throne by the maid. Sitting opposite Igor.

The protagonist is already seated, announcing the start of the banquet.Mo Bei took a towel brought by the maid, wiped his face, and immediately felt a lot better.After toasting with Peyton III, he turned his attention to the various foods in front of him,
Except for that kind of ham, he has not had the chance to taste other specialties of Ernstinger, and this time he can just enjoy it.

Seeing that he was eating happily, Igor on the opposite side really regarded this as an ordinary dinner, and couldn't help but smiled helplessly, but he had a lot of affection for Mo Bei.

Peyton III on the throne was holding a wine glass in his hand, with an undiminished smile on his face, looking at the young man below with great interest.

Mo Bei knew that there were many gazes on him, but he was too lazy to respond, he just pretended not to notice, but he didn't want to disappoint the food in front of him.

Most of the meat on the table is smoked or grilled, and some are smeared with honey, which is very suitable for his taste. He also knows that he must not eat and take at this occasion, so he just eats here to his heart's content.

In order not to appear cold, the princes and ministers also began to chat with each other in low voices, making the scene lively again.They were the foil of this banquet, but they didn't expect that Grand Duke Lu Gaoyin would be so indifferent to the world. Such a nobleman was really rare in his life.

Peyton III didn't speak again until he saw Mo Bei's satisfied expression:
"Because of the hasty preparations, this banquet is indeed a bit dull, please forgive me."

"No! I think this kind of atmosphere couldn't be better. It's really not like Kardim's extravagance and exaggeration." Mo Bei, who was full of wine and food, said sincerely.

As soon as this remark came out, many people present could not help but twitch.

After all, the matter of Kartim is not a top secret, especially for those present, there are always some channels to understand it relatively thoroughly.

And Mo Bei's inadvertent words made the princes and ministers present react suddenly:
What kind of aristocrat is this man in front of him? He is clearly a fucking noble terminator!
