Chapter 0051 Dinner

Viscount Holwhite Hans, the lord of Doberman.

"You said, this team is the one that was spread some time ago?" Viscount Holwight Hans asked faintly, watching the scarlet wine rippling inside.

"It's not wrong. I asked the guard who came into contact with them today. It was the badge of the level 8 mage. Look..." The butler replied respectfully, and looked at his master.

"Prepare a dinner tonight, and I want to meet these people."

"Yes." The butler bowed and agreed and hurried out to arrange preparations.

A quarter of an hour later, a male servant from the Viscount's Mansion had appeared in the hotel where Li Xun and his party were staying.

"A viscount invites us?" Casas said in confusion, passing the famous post to Li Xun and the princess who came to hear the news.

Princess Xilis said without hesitation: "A city lord invites us, we must go! But I am no longer Princess Xilis, but Master Lis."

Li Xun was also very interested in the city lord and said, "You think about it. We have been calling all the way and helped the city lord clean up the road. I'm afraid we will face a commission when the time comes!"

"You mean this city lord is going to hire us?" Casas frowned and said, "Hold three intermediate mages to clean up the thieves for him? Can he ask?"

Xilith thought for a while and thought that this possibility was very high, although it was a bit incredible.

The group of mages has always been a bit mysterious and arrogant. Although there are mage aristocrats in many countries, they are still out of place with orthodox aristocrats. Many aristocrats will hire mage consultants for their needs, but most of them can only recruit some low-level mages. Middle-level mages can already become guests of high-level nobles and other superior nobles, which is far from what viscounts in the same place can recruit.

Of course, some nobles will also select potential children from the family to train them. In this way, the mages who start the school are more loyal to the family. Therefore, in addition to some rural boys who want to rely on becoming mages to get rid of their civilian status, many mage apprentices are more selected by all families. Even if they cannot become real mages, they can also come into contact with the mage circle and cultivate some connections.

Since they didn't know the motives of the city lord Viscount, the three of them simply discussed the response strategy and handed over the power of communicating to Master Casas. After all, his experience is much richer than the other two.

Not long after the male servant who received the reply left, the carriage sent by the City Lord's Mansion stopped at the entrance of the hotel. The three mages did not hide anything anymore, and were all wearing orthodox mage robes, and boarded the carriage and came to the City Lord's Mansion.

Viscount Mansion is a semi-fortress-style manor with high walls and barriers outside. The carriage passes through the narrow manor gate with three-story iron gates, and follows the bluestone main road to the brightly lit hall entrance. The city master butler has already brought a group of male and female servants to the door.

In the hall, Casas and the other two met Viscount Holwight Hans, a loose and gorgeous purple silk robe, with a soft vest sprinkled with gold and silver threads, and a typical noble costume of Serene. Viscount had a majestic and upright face, with a carefully trimmed and well-tighted mustache. In the deep sunken eye sockets, two sapphire-like eyes were radiant, which added to the indescribable majestic momentum of the body.

"Welcome to all the noble mages, it is my honor to come! I am Viscount Holwhite Hans, the owner of Dobermans, welcome you!"

A series of exciting words and sincere faces made the city lord's enthusiasm really surprised the three of them. In addition to Li Xun, Casas and Xilith are both social veterans who often encounter various occasions. Of course, they would not be stumped by this accident. They could easily deal with the scene with aristocratic etiquette.

Lord Viscount enthusiastically led everyone to the door on the left side of the hall. As the two iron red wooden doors slowly separated to both sides, revealing the magnificent and luxurious restaurant decorated with magnificent decoration.

Deep in the dining room is a long dining table with white and delicate porcelain tableware, knife and fork and candles arranged on it. Several neatly dressed servants stood close to the wall. In addition to the dining table, there is a small indoor band, playing melodious music, which makes the atmosphere of the whole banquet elegant.

After more than a month of bumpy outside, I finally returned to the normal aristocratic civilization. Even the eyes of Master Casas, who had always been upright and rigorous, also felt excited. I expressed my gratitude to the master again. Under the guidance of the waiter, everyone sat at the dining table one by one.

After raising a glass to wish the host good health, the dinner will officially begin.

It has to be said that there are new civilizations in the new world, and various special foods are filled with the lives of nobles. Chasing power is only the pursuit of some noble ambitious people, while chasing food is the hobby of all nobles.

Li Xun looked at the things on the table with satisfaction. Even with strict requirements, it could be considered a hearty meal. A silver dish filled with steamed fried steak, and next to it was fine salt mixed with fried sesame for seasoning; then two exquisite tin bowls, one filled with stewed and thick broth, and the other was sliced ​​and then roasted brown bread. In addition to these delicious dishes, as a side dish to relieve greasiness, there were also a few small green cucumbers and two red berries on the tray.

Li Xun, who had a big appetite, didn't care about the table manners. He immediately buried his head at the food on the table and ate it with relish. At his age, it was a great time to eat Haisai. Until he swept all the steak and bread into the soup, and even the side dishes and fruits were left, he raised his head, let out a long breath, leaned against the back of the chair and sipped the wine in small sips.

Although Master Casas has a good appetite, he is obviously a little restrained and eats very slowly, and is obviously waiting for his master to ask questions. At first glance, Xilis has undergone strict etiquette training and her entire eating movement is impeccable.

The viscount finished her dinner silently and kept looking at the three mages on the way. The leader of the mage Casas is obviously an orthodox spellcaster, wise and self-disciplined, and experienced. This beautiful "Lis" mage seems to be the one she is looking for. Her words and deeds can be confirmed to have received court education. As for the remaining Li Xun, how could he have such a strange surname? It seems that he is a newly advanced mid-level mage who comes out to experience it. He is rude and reckless, and has great curiosity, so he can use it.

Seeing that the three mages had finished eating, the Viscount led everyone to the study on the second floor and then got to the point.

Viscount cleared his throat and said seriously: "Dear Masters, you must be very surprised by the purpose of my invitation to you today. I don't need to hide anything. I need your help!"

Casas and the other two looked at each other for a moment, and Casas came forward to inquire:

"Thank you for your hospitality today, I wonder what we can do for you?"

"Everyone comes from the north and has seen the current situation of this trade route. As a commercial center, Doberman City cannot allow these vicious thieves to continue to do evil. In response to the three nearby thieves, I have organized a 500-man army to clear out the nest of the largest Red Beard Thieves. Due to insufficient troops, I can only temporarily hire two large mercenaries, which can total up to 1,800 people, but the magic power is extremely insufficient. So I heard that after you have achieved great achievements along the way, I hope you can get your assistance?"

Casas was not willing to accept such a time-consuming and labor-intensive employment task, but could not withstand the instigation of Xilith and Li Xun in the spiritual transmission technique, so he could only reluctantly agree to Viscount's request, but said that his party could not stay here for a long time and hoped to set a deadline. After Viscount considered it, he agreed to set a team to set a departure within 3 days. If it went well, the task of clearing out the thieves' lairs within 10 days.

The agreed reward is 7,000 gold coins and magical items and materials in the thieves' lair. Such rewards are already considered very high. After all, the three thieves' crazy plundering in the past year will definitely be extremely generous.
