Reborn Douluo Continent

Chapter 52 Holding a Meeting

"It's not just a meal, it's a banquet!" Jack said, "As soon as Rocky informs us that you're well, we'll go up and start preparing." Before he could finish speaking, many bells rang Interrupted; it was the bell calling them into the hall.

The hall of Hades House was packed with people, mostly elves, but there were also a few guests of other races.Hades sat on the throne at the end of the long table and looked down at the crowd as before. On one side of him was the respected wizard Matt, and on the other side was Rocky.

Carlo looked at them in amazement; because he had never seen King You who appeared in many legends before; and even Rocky, who he thought he was familiar with, exuded an unstoppable noble spirit.

Rocky's long white hair, flowing beard and broad shoulders make him look like a king who came out of an ancient legend.On his weather-beaten face, under bushy brows were hidden charcoal eyes, like coals that burst into flame when the time was right.

The big wizard Matt is tall and strong, he has blond hair, and his handsome features are fearless and full of joy.His eyes are dazzling, and his voice is as sweet as music; others can see that he has wisdom and authority, and he is by no means a person who can be underestimated.

The face of Hades seems to be unaffected by the years, neither old nor young, but there are many traces of joy and sorrow on it.His hair was as dark as the shadows before the dawn, and over it was a small silver crown.His eyes were as gray as the clear evening, with a faint star-like light shining through them.On the outside, he seems to be a wise king who has experienced the baptism of countless years, but the courage he exudes is like a mature warrior who has experienced many battles.He is the master of the underworld, the most outstanding figure among elves and humans.

In the center of the long table, there is a chair with a canopy leaning against a wall tapestry.Sitting on the chair is a peerless beauty with amazing beauty. She has the same temperament as the Elf King, and she is the daughter of the Elf King.She looks young on the outside, but she is not so innocent.There is no wind and frost on her hair, and her white jade arms and face are even more white and flawless, which can be broken by blows.There are also dazzling starlight in her eyes, and they are also as clear as a cloudless night.But she exudes a queen-like noble temperament, her beautiful eyes are full of wisdom and deep meaning, as if a wise man who sees through the world occupies her young and beautiful body.Her head was covered with a silver net adorned with precious stones, shining white.Her white robe has no decorations, except for a belt made of silver leaves around her waist.

The elf princess Carlo is looking at is an elf that mortals rarely get to see: Maggie, the daughter of the elf king.It is said that she inherited the beautiful lineage of his mother, the mermaid clan. She is called an angel by her compatriots because she is the evening star in the eyes of elves.

Carlo had never seen, nor thought that there would be such a beautiful elf in the world; moreover, when he saw that he had a place at the Lord's table of Hades, he was able to be among so many beautiful and noble people. Even more, he was flattered.Although he sat in a decent-sized chair with a lot of cushions, he still felt very small and out of place.However, that feeling passed quickly.

The guests of the banquet enjoyed themselves, and the delicacies did not distract the guests in the slightest. It took him a long time to raise his head, and he had the opportunity to look at the neighbors.On Carlo's right sat a man who seemed to be quite high-ranking. He was wearing a snow-white coat, a silver belt, and a silver necklace with diamonds around his neck.Carlo stopped chewing and looked at him in a daze.

"Welcome, welcome! Nice to meet you!" said the elf, turning to him.He even got up from his seat and bowed to him: "Carlo is at your lord's command." He bowed even deeper.

"Carol is at your service and your family's orders." Carlo stood up abruptly and knocked the cushion to the ground, but he still answered correctly according to the etiquette: "Are you one of the great protector partners?" Where's Carlo?"

"You're right." The man picked up the cushion and kindly helped Carlo to sit back on the seat. "I need not ask you any further questions; for I already know that you are our famous friend Carlo, and I congratulate you on your recovery."

"Thank you for your concern," Carlo said.

"I've heard you've had quite a few adventures. Do you know what made four humans come all the way here? I haven't heard of such a thing since we traveled together. However, thanks to Rocky and Hades doesn't seem to want to talk about it, maybe I shouldn't ask too much?"

"I think we'd better not talk about it now, at least not for now," Carlo said politely.He guessed that even in the residence of the god of the underworld, the rebirth of the Horcrux is still not a topic that can be easily discussed.Anyway, he also wants to temporarily forget these troubles.

"However, I'm also very curious." He added: "What kind of thing made you, a person of high status, come all the way from the lonely mountain to come here."

Carlo looked at him. "If you don't know, I don't want to talk about this matter for now. I believe that Carlo, the god of the underworld, will summon all of us in the near future, and we will hear a lot of relevant information. However, apart from these troublesome things Besides, we have a lot of things to talk about!"

For the rest of the meal, the two talked incessantly.However, Carlo listened more than he spoke, because, in this place, the news of the underworld seemed insignificant; and the rebirth of the Horcrux was a secret he could not reveal.Carlo, by contrast, had a lot to tell him about the north of the Badlands.He knew from Carlo's mouth: Now the son of the elves, the elder Yu elves have now become the leaders of many humans; their territory is located between the foggy forest and the mountains, and no spirit or wild wolf dares to enter.

"That's right." Carlo said, "If it wasn't for the people of the elves, the territory from the plains to the underworld would have been annexed by evil forces long ago. They fought desperately for the smooth opening of the gate of rebirth, but they also paid a lot. Big price." He shook his head and said, "Like the previous elves, they still don't like elves, but they are still very reliable. In such troubled times, this is a very important thing. Land of the Dead Humans are the friendliest race to us. They are really good people."

"And your own countrymen?" said Carlo.

"There is a lot to say, there is good news and there is bad news." Carlo said: "However, most of them are good news: so far, we are still lucky; but we still cannot escape the shadow of the times. If you Really want to know how we're doing, and I'd love to share with you. But let me know as soon as you're bored! As the saying goes: Elves can't stop talking when it comes to craft."

So, Carlo began to describe the customs of the entire elf kingdom in detail.He was glad to have such a polite listener; for even though Carlo was soon lost among the names of exotic places and people, he did not show fatigue or change the subject.

A shadow flitted across Carlo's face. "We are not sure." He replied: "I will come here to seek the assistance of the residents of the underworld because of what happened to Bahrain. Let's not talk about it tonight!"
