In the center of the commercial street in the south city of Lanhai Fort, a triangle table covered with snow-white tablecloth was placed.
Red wine, white wine, brown-red rum, colorless and transparent brandy, cocktails that were prepared and sent, various desserts, foods for meals, and various fruits almost filled the table.
Several chefs in snow-white uniforms and their assistants were busy with concentration, processing the prepared ingredients.
More than a dozen maids with tall and charming faces kept quiet behind their backs, waiting for instructions.
Next to this uniquely shaped triangle table, two hand-made black walnut chairs were sitting respectively at Raymond and Trini, the lord of the Castle of Lanhai, facing the direction they faced.
It is the main city of Lanhai Fortress.
The city lord Trini, who was still excited, promised to hand over the wizard sent by the Supreme Court to sneak attack the Winged Tiger Clan's garrison, he asked Raymond to invite him, hoping to establish a harmonious relationship with him and to set up a
The banquet was entertaining his arrival.
Raymond was a little confused about the person in front of him, and the sincerity and enthusiasm he showed also made him extremely confused.
And the most puzzled part of Raymond is that the southern city of the Lanhai Fort looked like this. Although the residents here seemed like walking corpses, they still maintained quite vitality.
This phenomenon made Raymond particularly curious.
So when Raymond frankly expressed his doubts, Trini, the city lord who agreed on the spot, asked him to close the street and quickly turned it into his living room, and invited Raymond to sit down.
Taste the delicious food and wine of the Lanhai Castle, and listen to him telling a not-to-date history and stories about him!
"Once there was an extremely happy family on the corner of the Shangcheng District of Lanhai Fortress. The male owner was originally a traveler selling the core of the monsters. After meeting the female owner who lives here, he stayed..."
The city lord Trini, who was holding a wine glass in his hand and had a trance, began to tell the story, while Raymond, who was listening carefully, quickly understood the protagonist of the story. In fact, it was the city lord Trini himself.
It was a love story at the beginning. His parents were not rich but their lives were worry-free.
But in the end, the happy family was completely destroyed due to a fire. The little Trini, who was considered to be unremembered by everyone, was abandoned in the slums by his mother's relatives on the third day after becoming an orphan.
, let him die.
I don't know if it was his luck or his matriarchal relatives were too lucky. The little Trini, who was accidentally discovered by the old lord of the Lanhai Castle from the slums, actually had the potential to become a wizard.
In ten years, he became the successor designated by the old city lord and was sent to the high tower to continue his studies.
"What a pity, if those relatives had not appeared at the party when they returned to the Lanhai Fortress to succeed, maybe the city in your eyes would not be like this..."
Speaking of this, the city lord Trini. A hint of regret appeared for the first time in his expression. When he raised the wine in his glass to signal to Raymond, he changed the topic. "Mr. Raymond, thank you for being in the tower
The land has vented resentment for me, drink it first to respect..."
Raymond was stunned by the changing topic in vain, but after thinking for a moment, he drank all the glass and spoke. "Who is Master Lanmodo?"
"I just know I can't hide it from you..."
The city lord Trini, who did not feel the surprise, laughed loudly, turned his eyes to the direction of the city lord's mansion and asked curiously. "How did you see it?"
“Master Lan Moduo’s attainments in talisman formation are admirable…”
After hearing Raymond's answer, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, and continued with a smile. "It's a pity that I can't surpass the monster Demilan no matter what. It really disappointed the old city lord.
ah……"
Raymond, who wanted to speak, hesitated for a while but did not continue the topic and turned the topic back again. "This is already the case in the South City District, so is the same in the North City District?"
"Yes, as long as some things start to be done, there will be no way out..."
The city lord Trini, who stood up while speaking, pointed to the northern city area that could be seen and continued the previous story. "After I came back and took over the city, I finally learned about the fire that year through some means.
The truth was that they were afraid that my mother would bring my family's wealth and took me to settle inland with her father. So they bribed the city guards at that time and created the fire..."
"Hate will become motivation at some point, but it will also blind individual conscience. So when I finally want to stop, I found that this place has become like this..."
"This black witchcraft obtained from the old city lord's secret room also made this change in the Lanhai Fortress unable to be reversed, so he was regarded by the mentor Lanmodo as the genius of the talisman formation second only to Demilan.
, and became the steward and owner of such a city, facing such people and subordinates every day…”
The faster the city lord Trini, who spoke, had an uncontrollable smile on his face. In the end, he threw away the wine glass in his hand, and covered his chest as if he was choked and started coughing violently!
Because the city lord Trini did not avoid the chefs and maids when he spoke, the chef who was busy not far away and the maids next to him heard everything he said.
However, these ordinary people who are still alive do not show surprise or panic, but instead lower their heads and look extremely sad.
Moreover, the driver of the carriage that had been hired by Raymond before also walked out of the corner where he was hiding, kneeling on one knee and covered in tears!
"Lord Raymond, there are no more than a thousand people living in this dead city of Lanhai Castle, and they are all ordinary families who have given me favors or provided services to the old city lord or
The servant..."
The city lord Trini, who turned around, had a slightly red eye socket but no madness in his pupils. He greeted him with the nobles with a graceful look, then turned his head and smiled. "Octopus grenade."
Lord Meng, your evil name has been widely circulated among the wizard class. What are your purposes besides the previous requests to enter the Lanhai Fort this time?”
"How many residents did the Castle of the Sea have before you returned here?"
Raymond's question made the city lord Trini stunned for a moment, but followed him and reported it. "Eighty-seven,653 people!"
"Originally, it was just because I couldn't bear to cause ordinary residents here to be massacred by the Warcraft Alliance, but it seems that such a purpose is no longer achieved..."
Speaking of this, the city lord Trini, who looked a little apologetic, sighed, and said, "Yes, except to restore the residents here to their original lives,"
I am happy to serve anything!"
Raymond could no longer describe his impression of him, so he asked directly. "Are the troops that went to the Wing Tiger Clan's garrison to conduct a sneak attack? Is it a member of the Monbiya Legion?"
"Oh, this is not. They are part of the newly established Lanzhijiao Army. Everyone is currently detained in the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion. You can take them away at any time..."
Hearing this, Raymond couldn't help but become more confused. "Then why did you provide them with information before? And after they entered the Lanhai Fortress, they had to take the initiative to resist with all their might?"
It seemed that Raymond's questioning could not be understood. The city lord Trini, who frowned and thought for a moment, asked in vain. "Wouldn't this be more interesting?"
"interesting?"
Raymond's somewhat stunned repetition made the city lord Trini more puzzled. He immediately asked back. "Yes, if the Warcraft Alliance does not come to attack the Lanhai Fortress, how can I test the Lanhai Fortress.
Defense effect? So how can the loopholes in the defense system be discovered here..."
