On the Seven Towers

Chapter 406 Prelude to the Dinner Party

The town is not big, so there is no need for a carriage to go to the Baron's Mansion. Chen Hansheng, Calanda, and Glade took the two escorts, Chang Yujie and Jose, and walked to the tallest house in the town.

Chang Yujie, like Wang Xiaofeng, is a fighter who obtained low-level fighting spirit in Qin Mu and Kalanda's fighting spirit school. He was originally a military training sergeant, and his long-term training made him a leader among the first batch of students who had awakened their fighting spirit. Jose was originally a mercenary warrior under Calanda. He just awakened his fighting spirit last year, but his rich mercenary experience gave him very good practical strength.

For Chen Hansheng, what went deep into the tiger's den today was the most elite force in his hands.

The Baron's Palace is a three-story small castle. The outer wall is made of blue-gray rocks. There are no decorations on it, just straight lines. The top of the castle is covered with crenels for shooting arrows. There is even a mobile phone on the platform on the second floor. Trebuchet. Show the master's martial spirit to the fullest. If there were more towers, the outer walls were thicker, and a moat was added, this would be a real fortress.

Chen Hansheng walked to the door of the Baron's Mansion and touched the storage ring on his hand. This rare item was distributed because he wanted to open up a new country. It was a good thing prepared for everyone in the castle. It was hidden inside. And in the arms of Chang Yujie beside him, there was only a space bag.

Seeing the butler Robin coming out to welcome him, Chen Hansheng calmed down his emotions, behaved as a representative of the Mage Tower should, and looked at the other party calmly.

"Welcome Mr. Chen and his entourage to the Baron Mansion. Please come with me," Robin said.

The five of them followed Robin into the courtyard and walked through a garden to the main entrance of the small castle. There were soldiers guarding the whole way.

Entering the castle, Robin said to Chen Hansheng: "We have prepared food for your guards in the side hall. They can dine with the soldiers of our family."

Chen Hansheng winked at Chang Yujie, and the latter and Jose followed a guard away.

Then, Robin brought Chen Hansheng and the others into the main hall. I saw a platform set up in front of a rectangular hall. There are two rows of long tables, one horizontal and two vertical, under the table. Many guests have already arrived here. Most of them are wearing military uniforms and chatting in groups. Seeing the three people entering the hall, most people stopped talking and looked at them. One of the tall, middle-aged men came over and made a knight's salute: "Is this Mr. Chen? I am O'Farrell."

"Your Excellency O'Farrell, we finally meet." Chen Hansheng returned the greeting and introduced, "These two are my deputies, Karanda and Glade."

After everyone exchanged greetings, the Baron said: "I heard that Mr. Chen has many things that he wants to talk to me about. Today is a good opportunity. After the ceremony and dinner, we can have a good chat."

"Of course. I'll be waiting for Mr. O'Farrell at any time." Chen Hansheng said.

"The people who came here today are all nobles around you. You can get closer to each other. In my opinion, getting along well with neighbors is the most important thing." The baron waved, and three young people with very similar faces came over. They are tall and straight, with a strong physique. The oldest looks to be in his mid-twenties, and the youngest looks to be in his early twenties. "These are my second, third and fourth sons, Ackley, Israel and Hahn. Ackley and Israel both served in the King's Northern Legion, Hahn remains with me. I The eldest son works as a steward for the Duke of Greenwood City and learns how to manage a territory. The fifth son is a knight squire of the Duke’s heir, Julieta.”

The Baron ordered: "Ackley, please accompany Mr. Chen around and get to know the people from the surrounding area. You are the oldest and are familiar with the nobles. Your brothers and I still have some preparation work to do."

After the baron left with his two sons, Ackley was left alone. He waited for the baron to go away, looked at the three of them, and said with a half-smile: "You are the one who hid Doris?"

Chen Hansheng's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Ackley would mention this matter here. Isn't he afraid that the scene would be ugly?

"Mr. Ackley, Doris lives with us, but regarding this matter, I would like to ask you, what happened to Irene?" Chen Hansheng said.

"Oh? It turns out that Mr. Chen took Doris in. That girl is a rare beauty." Ackley praised.

"No, I have nothing to do with her. They are my townspeople now. I want to prevent their family from encountering any accidents again." Chen Hansheng said.

"Well, that's it. So it seems I still have a chance to pursue Doris?"

"Are you pursuing Doris like you pursued Irene?" Karanda couldn't stand it anymore and sneered from the side.

"This beautiful lady. You must have misunderstood something. I have never pursued Irene. Compared with her, Doris is more to my taste. I only care about beautiful things. At that time, I wanted to remind She, someone else is interested in her. If it were me, I would cherish every woman I come across, how could I let her end up in that situation?" Ackley said with a hint of disdain.

"Isn't it you? Is it your brother? You can't fool anyone by saying that Irene stole things." Kalanda said.

Ackley spread his hands: "I can only say that some young people are too irritable, but there is nothing we can do about it. It will be better with more experience. As for Irene, I can only say that fate does not favor her. That’s all.”

Chen Hansheng was really disgusted by these understatement. Looking at Karanda's face turned red, he probably couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He changed the subject and said: "It seems that if I have a chance, I will also ask Mr. Ackley To understand the situation, let’s focus on the ceremony today.”

Ackley said: "Of course, this is exactly what my father asked me to do. Look, the one over there wearing blue armor and hanging a long sword is my brother-in-law, Baron Suarez. The one wearing black armor is from Sir Paragus, the representative of Green Forest City, and the one wearing the red mage robe is the mage Pella from the Tower of Red Lotus. She is the disciple of Susanna..."

After introducing the people present, Ackley pointed to the stage in front and said: "In a moment, Her Excellency Susanna of the Red Lotus Tower will hold a ceremony here to accept my sister Jenny as a magic apprentice. By the way, Lady Susanna is also a great beauty.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a female magician wearing a red robe led a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old into the hall from the side door.

Ackley said: "It seems the ceremony will begin soon."
