Chapter 390 [The problem that makes people collapse](2/2)
Vivian returned the gift and said in a reserved tone: "Miss Vivian, there is no need to be too polite. You are the future Grand Duchess, and you have also been granted a palace title. There is no need to be too polite to me."
Mrs. Lister's expression remained normal. However, she secretly glanced at Vivian. After receiving Vivian's grateful look, Mrs. Lister secretly smiled.
But then, she stopped laughing!
Because the Elf King Luoxue had just recovered from the shock of staring at Vivian, but when he saw Mrs. List approaching, the Elf King fell into an even greater shock!!
The Elf King almost unabashedly stared at Mrs. Lister with his naked eyes, an incredible look flashed in his eyes. Then his breathing was slightly disturbed.
Because of her beauty, Mrs. Lister has been stared at by many men like this in her life, but this time, she also felt a little strange. Because the people around Princess Louise (forgive her)
, even the smart Mrs. Liszt did not recognize Luo Xue’s gender), the look she looked at her was definitely not the greedy and startled look of an ordinary man who coveted his beauty, nor was it the jealous and startled look cast by a woman.
envious……
There seemed to be extreme surprise in this look... and even a hint of...
anger?!
This kind of look seems calm, but it seems that you can see your own heart directly through your own eyes. What kind of look is this!
Mrs. Lister actually panicked in her calm heart. She quickly adjusted her breathing and said with a smile: "Louise, who is your companion?"
"Oh, this is Mr. Luoxue from the north. His identity is very mysterious. I am also very curious about the origin of Mr. Luoxue." With an understatement, Princess Louise revealed to Mrs. Lister that "she also
I don’t know the exact origin of this falling snow” message.
Luoxue had completely calmed down at this moment. The Elf King took a breath, smiled like a flower blooming, looked at Vivian, lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "Dear mistress, I hope that my arrival will bring you peace of mind."
It’s not presumptuous.”
His soft voice, with a hint of magnetism, was extremely pleasant to the ears. Vivian quickly used what the etiquette teacher taught her to return the gift, and gave a stiff smile: "That's my honor."
Then, the nervous little silly girl finally recalled all the etiquette taught by her teachers, and quickly turned around to lead the distinguished guests into the banquet hall.
But at this moment, Luoxue had quietly moved the princess's hand away, quietly slowed down, and landed beside Mrs. Lister.
He exhaled softly, and a trace of pure elven magic carefully tied his voice into a thread, and quietly fell into the ears of Mrs. Lister.
His voice was still soft, but with a hint of coldness. However, what surprised Mrs. Lister was that the language spoken by this elegant and beautiful Mr. Luo Xue was not the mainland language at all!
"#$^%^$^^......"
A very short sentence fell in Mrs. List's ears. She was stunned at first, then confused. In an instant, the expression on her face turned into shock and fear!
Naked fear!
"Don't let people see it...half-blood elf!" Luo Xue's cold voice reached Mrs. Liszt's ears again.
Mrs. Lister's body trembled slightly, and then she immediately lowered her head, for fear that others would see her face, but only she knew it. Now, there is probably not even a trace of blood on her face!
Although the banquet was beautifully arranged, it was really the most boring thing for Vivian. Fortunately, she had two distinguished guests, the princess and Miss Delly, by her side, and others did not dare to disturb her. The identity of Her Royal Highness the Princess
She was quickly recognized and immediately became the focus of everyone. Vivian, the hostess, was finally able to hide aside with a little ease.
At this time, what surprised Vivian was that Mrs. Lister left without knowing when. She originally wanted to thank her for her help just now. But her eyes scanned the whole place, but she could not find Mrs. Lister.
Miss Delly stood beside the princess, and the two of them were skillfully maneuvering among a group of flatterers.
"Are you tired?"
A soft voice came from beside her. Vivian looked back and saw Luoxue standing behind her. He didn't know when he came quietly, and even Vivian didn't notice his approach.
"Hmm... not bad." Vivian kept a polite smile.
Luoxue's facial lines were very soft, and her eyes seemed to be shining like gems. She looked at Vivian quietly, her eyes direct but unassuming.
"You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen." Luoxue smiled warmly, and then said calmly: "Dear hostess, can you satisfy my guest's small request?"
"Eh? Please tell me." Vivian was stunned for a moment.
"To be honest, I feel very bored about this kind of occasion." Luoxue's smile was so appropriate that even his speaking voice seemed to have an extremely smooth rhythm: "In my opinion, actually.
You don’t like this kind of occasion either.”
Wei Wei'an felt a fondness for this strange beauty. But she didn't know how to answer, so she smiled slightly.
"Just in time. I heard that this city was built in only three months. And this castle is a miracle among miracles. Can you show me around?" Luoxue said quietly to him.
Vivian blinked, then lowered her voice and whispered: "Anyway, I don't think they can get away for a while, so we can quietly walk away for a while and no one will notice."
Although Vivian was a little unhappy, she remembered what the etiquette teacher said today, "Try to meet the appropriate requirements of the guests."
Taking guests to visit your home should be considered an "appropriate request".
Vivian nodded. Then, the Elf King smiled slightly, made a gentle gesture, and pointed to the side door closest to where the two of them were standing. Vivian nodded.
Luo Xue walked out of the hall easily, and not many people noticed their departure. After leaving the banquet hall, Luoxue seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "Oh, human life is really troublesome, such a banquet
, is it the nobles’ favorite enjoyment..."
"Ah?" Vivian seemed a little confused by this sentence.
Luoxue raised her eyebrows and immediately said: "I heard that Duke Tulip was originally from a martial arts family. I think there must be some rooms in this castle dedicated to displaying weapons. Can you take me to see them?"
"Weapons?" Vivian was stunned... Would this beautiful and delicate person be interested in weapons?
However, the guest's request was the host's honor. Vivian could only cheer up and left the banquet hall with Luo Xue, walking through the center of the castle and arriving at the door of a room on the other side.
Gently pushing the door open, Vivian stuck out her tongue: "This is the only weapons exhibition hall in the castle. Duwei actually doesn't like martial arts. So... we don't have a lot of weapon collections.
"
Walking into this room, the space inside is still very large. On a high metal shelf in the middle, there is a spear with an extremely amazing shape! This spear is emitting a faint black light, which is exactly what it is used for.
Made of fine iron.
It is obvious that this extra-long spear is an imitation. It is a one-to-one imitation sample based on the legendary knight's spear "Spear of Longinus".
It is not unusual for many nobles to have such an item in their weapons collections to show off their appearance, even if they are just arty.
But when Luoxue saw it, a strange light flashed in her eyes.
He walked over slowly, and even reached out his hand and stroked the spear slowly. His slender fingers were as gentle as a musician's fingers playing an organ when he held the spear.
For a long time, Luoxue let out a long sigh: "The Spear of Longinus... the most powerful artifact among warriors in the legend, the real artifact... In the battle between gods ten thousand years ago, the goddess was the most loyal and powerful legendary weapon.
The holy warrior in the movie used this spear to defeat the enemies of the goddess. Those... other gods. This is a divine spear stained with the blood of the gods..."
Vivian blinked. Luoxue said these words in a very low voice, as if she was talking to herself. Vivian only heard a small part of it. She didn't quite understand what the other party meant.
Luoxue came to her senses, immediately let go of her hand, turned around and looked at the surrounding walls.
Du Wei made his fortune by selling various high-end weapons in the empire's business shop, so there are naturally a few exquisite masterpieces here. However, the degree of gorgeousness of these things far exceeds the degree of practicality. They seem gorgeous.
, are actually very fragile. For example, those armors with hollow patterns, it is difficult to say how much real defensive power they have.
However... this kind of style that wants to be gorgeous but not life-threatening actually greatly suits the taste of the elves. Luo Xue looked at them one by one, and was actually quite interested. He even commented on the flaws of several of them from time to time, and also
It is not evaluated from the perspective of weapons but from the perspective of works of art.
"If this carving is three-thirds deeper, the overall effect will be more..."
After looking at seven or eight collections, Luoxue's eyes fell on a long sword in the middle of the wall in this room.
This is the tallest weapons rack in the room, with two gold shields as tall as one person erected on both sides, with flaming tulip patterns carved on them.
What does not match this gorgeous setting is that the sword in the middle seems too mediocre.
The scabbard is made of high-quality metal, and it also contains high-quality animal skin. However, it seems to be a bit old, and there are some scratches on the metal scabbard. Even though the animal hide has been well maintained, it is also somewhat denitrated.
Already.
And on the hilt of the sword, there are ribs one after another to allow the person holding the sword to control the weapon more powerfully...
This is no longer a collectible, it seems to be a real weapon... But what is strange is that in this house full of gorgeous weapons collections, this real weapon seems to have nothing outstanding about it.
.
This is just an ordinary long sword.
Luoxue seemed a little curious. He couldn't help but want to reach out and touch the hilt of the sword. He even wanted to pull it out and take a closer look. What was so special about this sword that it could be placed in the most important position in the room?
Just before his hand touched the hilt of the sword...
Behind him, at the door, a calm voice came in, with a hint of laziness.
"I'm sorry, but you can't touch that sword."
Following this voice, a person slowly walked in.
Hearing this voice, the expression on Vivian's face changed from shock to infinite joy. She immediately turned around, stared at the person in disbelief, and finally exclaimed.
"Ah! Du, Du Wei... you, you are back?!"
"Yes, I'm back." Du Wei's smile seemed to contain a trace of exhaustion. He walked over, first gently hugged his little fiancée's waist, and then looked directly at Luoxue calmly.
Du Wei's eyes did not show any change of mind, and were as deep as the sea.
The two looked at each other.
"Hello, you must be Duke Tulip, and I am Luo Xue." The Elf King said slowly.
"Oh... I already knew your name from my subordinates before I came in, distinguished guest." Du Wei nodded, but then, he suddenly asked a straightforward question.
