Chapter 498： : Dinner, Zongs anger (1/2)
Today I drank not cider, but serious wine.
pre-decanted the wine before the start of the dinner.
I have to say that part of the culture of this world is still similar to the western culture on the earth.
After everyone’s table was filled with a glass of wine, Baron Bezos took the initiative to get up.
He raised his glass and said loudly.
”Let's drink to meet each other!”
”Cheers to meet!”
...
Everyone also got up one after another, raising their wine glasses and bumping into each other in the air.
This is a pre-dinner etiquette.
Baron Bezos looked in good spirits, he took the initiative to raise his glass and drank it.
Others also took a sip or a big sip.
Only Zong Shen did it directly like Baron Bezos.
After sits down, the dinner is officially started.
The soldiers brought by Zongshen were all old fried dough sticks, and they had already taken the initiative to fork dishes into the plate.
Baron Bezos watched the soldiers with interest.
After the previous introduction, he already understood the specific arms of these fighters.
Zongshen didn't say too much detail, but just gave a rough introduction.
Among them, he is very interested in Intermediate Space Mage Reese Ulysses.
As that guy looks like an old lady, but the Space Mage is too rare.
There are not many in the giant city of Lentax.
As far as he knew, even one squadron was dissatisfied.
Those space mages are the elite of the elite, often used to perform special tasks.
For example, opening a large teleportation array, or cooperating with the master forge to make space storage props.
In ordinary people, it is not easy to find a talented mage.
Among all the mage talents, it is even more difficult to find the talents of the two lines of time and space.
Each of them can be cultivated with emphasis. Because of the inclination of resources, it is not difficult to train them to the third and fourth levels.
As for the others, they also seem to be good soldiers.
This is even more so in his eyes, including his mouthful brothers.
Zongshen took a hot spring bath in the territory last night, but his body was washed clean.
But the blood stains on the armors, helmets, and boots on his body have not been cleaned.
After a day's time, the blood stains have dried up and turned black.
looks like this, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a **** battle.
Zongshen took care to fork a piece of fried and tender steak and placed it on the plate.
gently put it on the side of the mouth and bite.
The steak is fried just right, the gravy is full, and the skin has a rich oily aroma.
I have to say something about the chef in Baron Bezos’s castle.
is indeed a real level.
He chewed slowly and asked casually.
”Sir, do you have a son and a daughter?”
Hearing this question, Baron Bezos put down his glass and said with a smile.
”Hadlow volunteered to **** the refugees.”
”As for Steven, he followed the Dragonhawk team to the Giant City of Lentax the other day.”
”In less than a month, a grand banquet will be held in the giant city.”
”It's a pity that this banquet is by invitation. I can only bring my family with me.”
”Steven takes a step first. It just so happens that she also wants to play in the giant city.”
Baron Bezos said lightly, and he used a fork to pick up a piece of fried fish and put it in his mouth to chew.
Zongshen turned his head, looked at the steak on the plate that he had bitten, and pretended to nodded carelessly.
He naturally knew what the banquet in the giant city was all about.
For this reason, he has an agreement with the bard Englandmu.
”I know that the giant city of Lentax will host a banquet.”
”My lord, I think we might be able to meet again at the banquet.”
Zongshen finished speaking, and took a big bite of the steak.
Then he stuffed the rest into his mouth.
These small pieces of fried steak are only as big as the palm of the hand, so they have to be eaten hot to be delicious.
”Oh? Brother Zong is going to participate in the competition?”
Baron Bezos suddenly became interested again. It is almost a tradition to hold a competition.
Not only is the giant city of Lentax, all giant cities in this continent will hold a competitive meeting when they host grand noble banquets.
Generally a giant city, there will always be a banquet in three to five years.
The sponsors of the banquet are the marquis and earls in the giant city.
The commonly used first names are also very simple, usually the coming-of-age ceremony, naming ceremony, birthdays, weddings, etc. of the children of XX.
The purpose of the banquet was to unite the nobles of the city under the jurisdiction of the giant city.
After all, this continent is so vast. If there is no major event, those state nobles and archons rarely go to the giant city.
As for the athletic conference, also known as the noble show field, it is also the only way for some uninvited young nobles, mercenaries, bards, wanderers, and civilians to participate in the banquet.
At the same time, this is also a talent selection for Giant City. Anyone who can get the top three can not only participate in the banquet, but also have the opportunity to be appreciated by Sir Alex Ferguson.
Hearing this question from Baron Bezos, Zong Shen was probably able to guess what he meant.
Athletics tournament is the enemy that many young people can prove themselves.
Including the Baron Bezos must have had a dream similar to a competitive champion when he was young.
In the arena, everyone speaks by their ability, whether you are a noble child, a traveler, or a commoner, you can compete.
Zongshen swallowed the meat steak, then turned his head and looked straight at Baron Bezos with a clear gaze, and slowly nodded.
”Yes, I want to participate in the competition.”
”Use your strength to win the opportunity to participate in the banquet!”
Baron Bezos looked into Zong Shen's eyes, although his words were plain.
But Bezos saw his determination to win in his eyes.
”Athletes are not easy.”
”At that time, most aspiring young people in the giant city will participate.”
”There are even some noble heirs and talented young people.”
”They are well-trained and possess a high level of combat literacy, which is difficult to deal with.”
”Because of the significance of the competition, many young people use this as a stage to prove themselves.”
Baron Bezos still couldn't help but reminded him.
In fact, if you can get the top three places in the competition.
then represents the top three strongest among the young people in this group of giant cities.
A huge city, thousands of kilometers in width, dozens of state guards, and hundreds or thousands of villages.
There are countless careful settlements and mobile travellers.
Even if the productivity of the lower classes in this world is low, there are less than one billion or even two billion people.
So the gold content of the top three in the competition is not ordinary.
Zongshen didn't feel much about what Baron Bezos said.
He usually deals with terrifying monsters.
And it's either the commander-level or the overlord-level.
That is a real life-and-death fight.
At the very least, the competition is non-lethal.
The two are not the same.
During this time, his hands were stained with countless blood.
During the crypt challenge period, he was softened.
is not the second fool who didn't know anything when he first landed.
”I understand my lord.”
”But I am still quite sure of winning the top three.”
Zongshen's tone was calm, as if he was telling a trivial matter.
Baron Bezos smacked his tongue secretly in his heart.
This is more than just winning the top three, it's just saying that you will get the first.
Self-confidence is a good thing, but the competition is indeed a place with great surprises.
Every time a competitive conference is held, several evildoers can always be brought out. It is definitely a scene of dragons and tigers fighting.
He wanted to remind him a few more words, but he didn't think about it enough or gave it up.
Because Baron Bezos has already seen Zong Shen's extraordinary strength, and he has the confidence to win.
And it seems to have done some homework for the competition a long time ago.
If he continues to disturb him, it will only make people unhappy.
Everyone comes from a young age, self-confidence is also a precious quality.
So he was silent for a while and stopped speaking.
Zongshen also began to concentrate on eating and drinking.
In a blink of an eye it came to seven o'clock in the evening.
The restaurant is connected to two small terraces, and the outside is completely dark at this time.
The gentle evening breeze blows from the terrace.
Zongshen also took advantage of this time to fill his stomach.
He doesn't have much demand for appetite, but he will not refuse the delicious delicacies in front of him.
After he was full, he drank another glass of red wine.
To be honest, he doesn't have much interest in such red wine.
”By the way, my lord, how many people are you going to take to the ruins?”
”Is it a horse-drawn carriage or other means?”
Zongshen wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and began to ask these questions that he was more concerned about.
