Chapter 135 Dinner

Chapter 135 Dinner
Duke Xianglun didn't say much about the humans in the Star Sea World. He just told Lin Xuan that humans are of unimaginable importance to the Star Sea World.

"Among the four great empires, the Ancient Kingdom of Shanna is an empire created by humans. They live in the eastern sea area of ​​the Star Sea World." Duke Xianglun said.

"Is it the [Sea of ​​Guixu]?" Lin Xuan asked.

"That's right, but the sea area where the Ancient Kingdom of Setsuna is located is only part of the [Sea of ​​Guixu], and it does not go deep into the [Sea of ​​Guixu]."

"Speaking of which, the demand for [Old Crystals] by the ancient country is the least among the four empires, but the intersection between me and them is the most."

"I like chatting with you humans very much, because I feel that you are the smartest among the four great empires. Thinking about how many of my old human friends are gone, I am really moved." Xiang Lun sighed a little.

"We are now in the Second Age of Cataclysm, and the Ancient Kingdom of Instants has not appeared. Do you think that the Ancient Kingdom of Instants will appear in the Third Age?" Lin Xuan was curious about this question.

"No, because the Setsuna Ancient Kingdom has become history just like the Winters Empire. Not only these two empires, but also the Beiluo Empire in the north."

"Up to now, the only two remaining empires in the Star Sea World are the Vaughan Empire and the Fury Winter Empire." Duke Xianglun replied.

"Oh? Then the Winter Fury Empire is led by Justaya?"

"Do you still know about Jestaya? Yes, Jestaya is the most powerful person in the Wrathful Winter Empire, and also the most feared opponent of the Vonke Empire."

"That guy... is indeed so powerful that other races in the Star Sea World are terrified." Duke Xianglun said frankly.

"How does Najestaya compare to you?" Lin Xuan asked.

"I haven't fought against him before, so I can't answer this question. I can only tell you that Justaya dare not bring his people to [Mason Castle] to play wild, and he still has to respect me." The Duke of Xianglun replied .

This answer is enough to explain something.

Looking at Duke Xianglun's bohemian appearance, Lin Xuan couldn't imagine that this person is actually a powerful Dragon Clan, and...he is very likely to be the most powerful person in the Star Sea World.

"Speaking of Justaya, I've seen one person who can easily defeat him." Duke Xianglun thought of something and smiled.

"Oh? There is such a person? Who is it?" Lin Xuan became curious immediately.

"He is an incredibly powerful human being, but I think he no longer exists in this world." Duke Xianglun said.

"Is it dead? What's your name?" Lin Xuan asked.

"Dead. I won't mention the name of a dead person. If you have a chance, you may learn something about him, so I won't say more."

"Oh, I've been chatting with you for so long, it's getting late now, don't we have to talk about something serious?" Duke Xianglun looked at the gradually darkening sky.

"What about energy food?"

"No, it's about Na Lu and Sluo Yin. You must think that I arrested your people to discuss business matters with you?"

"If it was me in the past, it is indeed possible to talk to you about this, but now the world is completely different, and I don't care about business anymore."

"[Old Crystal] and energy food can coexist, it doesn't matter whether there is competition or not, because your energy food cannot completely replace my [Old Crystal] after all."

"And our Mason family's [Old Crystal] is almost exhausted. The emergence of energy food can just make up for this." Duke Xianglun said.

"It's exhausted? But isn't there still a lot down here?" Lin Xuan pointed to the sea of ​​wealth below.

"What you see is only a very small part. After so many years in the Star Sea World, [Old Crystal] is being consumed every day, and it is a non-renewable resource, and it will be used up sooner or later."

"At this time, its number has become pitifully small, and...forget it, let's not talk about this matter for now."

"Let's talk about the current situation. You want Nalu to win the Vaughan civil war, right?" Duke Xianglun asked.

"Yes. But it would be great if the two sisters could shake hands and make peace," Lin Xuan said.

"Don't think about shaking hands and making peace. I understand the thoughts of Vaughn's guests better than you. Since you are on Nalu's side, then I can help you." Duke Xianglun expressed his attitude.

"Help me? Why?" It was a bit sudden, and Lin Xuan didn't understand.

"Because you represent the power of human beings, and I know the power of human beings. Even though the current human beings are not worth mentioning in the eyes of Vonke, I still believe in you."

"I also believe what you said. I believe that the third era of catastrophe has our common enemy. Moreover, I think that should be the Winter Fury Empire that Vonke fears the most."

"Jestaya will come, and at that time, you humans and Vonke need to fight against the enemy together. Since you represent the human side, I will help whoever you choose." Duke Xianglun said.

"This, is that why you asked me to come here?" Lin Xuanshi didn't expect the Duke of Xianglun to say such a thing.

"Yes, but not all of them. As I said, I invite you here tonight because I want you to attend the dinner party at [Mason Castle]."

"It's almost time, I have to get ready. You can also meet up with your people and wait for the dinner to start." Duke Xianglun stood up.

"Let's go."

This is the end of Lin Xuan's conversation with Duke Xianglun.

Duke Xianglun ordered someone to take Lin Xuan to a room in the castle, where Lin Xuan met Fang Qiyan, Zhan Xingtong and Zhuo Ye.

"You're finally back. We've talked for a long time." Lao Fang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Xuan.

"Thank you Commander for coming to rescue me." Zhuo Ye quickly thanked him.

"Zhuo Ye, tell me what happened to you, starting when you were kidnapped by people from [Mason Castle]." Lin Xuan cast Zhuo Ye a glance.

"Ok."

Zhuo Ye briefly and quickly explained the process of being hijacked one by one.

"You mean, the people in [Mason Castle] have a special [Old Crystal], which can interfere with the operation of your system?" Lin Xuan asked after listening.

"Yes." Zhuo Ye nodded.

"What about the others? Are you all right?"

"It's okay, I've seen them all. The people in [Mason Castle] said that they won't be entertained when the dinner starts, and only a few of us will be allowed to attend, so let them wait outside the castle." Fang Qiyan said.

"By the way, what did you say to that Duke of Xianglun? Did he mention something about energy food? Did he want to discuss business with us?" Fang Qiyan continued to ask.

"I mentioned it, but that's not why he invited us here. What he told me surprised me."

"He does want to cooperate with us, but it's not a business cooperation. Look, I think he will bring us some surprises at this dinner." Lin Xuan said.

At 8:[-] p.m., the dinner at [Mason Castle] begins.

Lin Xuan and several people were taken to the place where the dinner was held.

It is not the largest palace in the castle, but a relatively elegant and classical small room.

Lin Xuan and others arrived first. When they arrived, there were only Duke Xianglun and some maids here.

"Sit down, there are still some guests who will arrive a little later." Duke Xianglun greeted Lin Xuan and his party with a smile.

"Can you tell me who else will come?" Lin Xuan sat down and asked.

"Not many people came, but they were all important people. As for who is there, I'll keep it a secret for now. Anyway, you will know when the time comes."

"Those people you don't know, I will introduce them to you one by one." Duke Xianglun said.

From these words, Lin Xuan heard another meaning.

That is, among the guests who came, there were people that Lin Xuan knew.

At 8 minutes past 5, the first guest other than Lin Xuan arrived.

Lin Xuan didn't know this man, he had a big beard.After coming, it is natural to get close to the Duke of Xianglun, and to please him.

After being polite to him, Duke Xianglun arranged for him to sit down, sitting next to Lin Xuan.

"This is [Prison Officer] Atef from [Taiyu Mountain], and he is also an old acquaintance of mine." Duke Xianglun introduced to Lin Xuan.

【Taiyu Mountain】?
Isn't that the place under the jurisdiction of Michael Dow?

This Atef is from McEldo.

"Artef, this is Lin Xuan. I have told you before. He is the leader of the human race in the southern region, and the people around him are all his capable generals." Duke Xianglun turned to Arter Husband introduced Lin Xuan.

"I've already heard of Lin Xuan's name, it's a pleasure to meet you." Atef greeted Lin Xuan with a smile.

"You're welcome." Lin Xuan clasped his fists.

After a while, the second guest arrives.

The Duke of Xianglun introduced Lin Xuan again.

This person is also the [Prison Officer] of the Northern War Zone, and like Atef, he is also under Michael.

The third and fourth guests arrive at the same time.

Like the previous two, these two are also [Prison Officers] in the Northern War Zone.

Lin Xuan finally understood.

The people that Duke Xianglun invited tonight are all [Prison Officers] from the Northern War Zone, and they are all subordinates of Michael Dow, that is to say, they are all from Sloin.

And when these people saw Lin Xuan, they were not surprised at all.

Who doesn't know that Lin Xuan belongs to Na Lu?

Lin Xuan and these people are in different camps.

But judging from their performance, Lin Xuan knew that these people were invited to [Mason Castle], so the Duke of Xianglun had already explained the purpose of the dinner to them in advance.

The Duke of Xianglun wanted to help Lin choose. Now that these people appear here, the meaning is already obvious.

They want to rebel.

Under the matchmaking of the Duke of Xianglun, these [Prison Officers] who originally belonged to Michael, it seems that they are planning to turn against each other and join Nalu.

Looking at the seats for today's dinner, there is still one seat left unoccupied.

This seat is opposite Lin Xuan.

There should be one guest who didn't come.

who can that be?

The answer was revealed at 8:18.

A man in his thirties walked into the dinner with a woman.

When Lin Xuan saw this woman, his pupils shrank and he couldn't sit still.

"Haha, our last guest has finally arrived. Zhu Ye, you have kept everyone waiting for a long time." Duke Xianglun smiled slightly.

"I'm sorry, [Extreme Night] is far away from [Mason Castle]. Although the journey went smoothly, it's still not as convenient as everyone's coming."

"Please forgive me." Zhu Ye smiled and apologized.

"Take a seat, take a seat, you are late, this fine wine is indispensable." Duke Xianglun said.

"What the Lord Duke says, that's what it is." Zhu Ye didn't dare to go against the meaning of Duke Xianglun.

Lin Xuan didn't listen to the conversation between the two.

Now Lin Xuan's eyes were all on the woman standing beside Zhu Ye.

Isn't that the mysterious Miss She that Lin Xuan has been looking for?
Wearing a noble black evening dress, with her long, soft and beautiful hair rolled up, she looks dignified and elegant with an indescribable aura.

Compared with the Miss She that Lin Xuan met before, her demeanor is completely different.

Miss She was also looking at Lin Xuan.

He also deliberately gave Lin Xuan a wink.

Lin Xuan was about to say something, but Miss She had already taken her seat with the man named Zhu Ye.

Sitting opposite Lin Xuan.

"Three glasses of fine wine, I will drink first." Zhu Ye raised his glass and drank three glasses in a row.

"Haha, good, I announce the official start of the dinner, everyone eats and drinks well! Come, play music, dance!" Duke Xianglun said loudly.

The dinner has begun.

It is not as extravagant as Lao Fang imagined.

Lao Fang always thought that this dinner party would be the same as the scenes he had seen before, but looking at it now, it didn't.

The Duke of Xianglun just asked the maids in the castle to play music and dance, which is similar to the general dinner party.

The people who came here began to enjoy the dinner one after another.

They are all old acquaintances who know each other, so they are naturally acquainted when they talk. For a while, at the dinner party, there are exchanges of glasses and glasses.

It seemed more awkward for Lin to choose a few people.

I was not familiar with these people, so although someone came over to have a few drinks and chat with Lin Xuan, they were just going through the motions.

Lin Xuan and Lao Fang could only drink their own.

Lin Xuan doesn't bother to care about these things now, he is now focused on Miss She who is sitting opposite him.

After this woman sat down with Tsukuba, she started chatting with him and talked and laughed with others from time to time.

Seeing her, Lin Xuan had a lot to say, but it's hard to interrupt the rhythm of the dinner now, the dance music is not over yet.

"Hey, why do you keep staring at that woman?" Lao Fang saw that something was wrong with Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan didn't make a sound.

"Could it be because she fell in love with it? Haha, Lin Xuan, this woman is indeed very beautiful, especially her temperament is outstanding."

"I think her behavior has the aura of a high-ranking person. This kind of woman is not easy to deal with. Do you like this type of queen?"

"Hey, you can't even look at it without blinking your eyes, can you?" Lao Fang laughed, and shook his hand in front of Lin Xuan's eyes.

Lin Xuan still didn't speak.

"Are you really attracted to her? This is troublesome. That woman came with this [Prison Officer] named Tsukuya. Judging from the appearance of these two people, they should be familiar, right? Maybe they are a couple. .”

"Lin Xuan, do you want to poach the wall?" Lao Fang also looked to the opposite side, seeing that Miss She and Zhu Ye had a very happy chat, and immediately felt that this matter was difficult to handle.

"Old Fang, you sit down, I'll go over and have a drink with that [Prison Officer] Zhuye." Lin Xuan picked up the glass and got up.

"Fuck, Lin Xuan, can't you sit still? Don't mess around!" Lao Fang said hastily.

But Lin Xuan had already walked towards Zhuye.
