At the invitation of the Pegasus Knight, Sha Duo also rode on a Pegasus, and then swooped down quickly toward the ground. Since he had two Pegasus horses at home, he seemed to be able to operate them with ease.
Of course, going down doesn't mean actually falling to the ground.
The Golden Autumn Garden is located in the XC area of Taivi Mansa. It is actually on a huge oak tree, occupying the entire upper branch base of the oak tree.
And from a nearby branch, a bird's nest-like structure like a crown is woven together. It is only slightly shallower than a real bird's nest, but its size is definitely countless times that of a real bird's nest.
From a distance, Xia Duo saw various flowers, plants and trees with golden colors as the main color in the golden autumn courtyard illuminated by lights, with a large terrace in the middle.
On the outside are musicians, instruments and attendants, and slightly inside are seats distributed in a roughly circular shape. Many guests are already seated, and the inside is empty in preparation for performances during the dinner.
Xia Duo arrived neither early nor late, but as a human, he still attracted the attention of most of the people present. Xia Duo looked at the elves who were already present without flinching.
Then, under the guidance of the waiter, he found his seat and sat down generously, then picked up a bunch of fruits next to him and started eating.
It's not that he doesn't pay attention to etiquette, but the elf dinner party is meant for the indulgence of the upper class. Naturally, there are few rules. Those who come first will have the banquet first, and those who come later will not care about those. Even uninvited guests are free to do so. contacts.
However, during this trip, Xia Duo was still in the form of a saint and could not taste anything at all, so he only tasted it briefly to show his understanding of elven culture.
After that, he put his head on his hands and began to watch the two elves on the opposite seat having sex. After a while, King Helion came over with a group of advisers.
In line with the principle of mutual respect, Xia Duo stood up to greet him. Some of the other elves who had arrived earlier also stood up, while others were drinking, eating meat, or playing with their companions. They didn't seem to care about King Mian at all. Take it seriously.
Even with the tradition of indulgence at dinner parties, Helion still felt inexplicably angry when he saw the group of new elders who ignored him. However, when he saw Xia Duo, his mood suddenly improved a lot, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth involuntarily:
"Lord Xia Duo, this should be our first official meeting. It's truly a pleasure to meet you!"
"I am also very honored to meet King Helion Crown."
After a few compliments were exchanged, the atmosphere was heightened, and after King Mian took his seat as the host, the dinner officially began. Then, a moon elf whose face was covered by gauze, with only two bright eyes exposed, slowly appeared from the sky. Falling down, dancing gracefully on the table.
At the same time, the music played by the surrounding musicians also changed, becoming a little ambiguous and lingering, making people unable to help but indulge in it.
Xia Duolai was an incarnation, and he was unmoved by the charming and pure moon elf dancer jumping back and forth around him, or swaying gently.
On the other hand, the other guests at the table, including the consultants who came with King Mian, were all smiling and pointing. Even if this was not the first time he encountered this situation, it made Xia Duo feel really uncomfortable.
This was just an appetizer. As the atmosphere became more lively, some elves began to act wildly, and Xia Duo, the protagonist of the banquet, turned into an incompatible outsider.
Seemingly noticing Shado's indifference to the surroundings, Helion deliberately looked for topics to liven up the atmosphere, or perhaps this was one of his purposes. At the end of the song, he suddenly asked Shado:
"What does Lord Shado think of Tevi Mansa?"
"Mianwang refers to——"
"The environment, residents, any aspect that Lord Shado can think of can be discussed."
"If that's the case, then I would like to talk about the different impressions Tevi Mansa and Komansol left on me."
Xia Duo pretended to think for a while, and then continued: "Look at Cormansol, I seem to be as good as a newborn baby, noisy but full of vitality, while Tevimansa seems peaceful, but gives people a feeling of twilight. a feeling of."
Before going to Cormanzo, Chateau thought that Cormanzo might have fallen into depravity a long time ago, but after actual experience, he realized that his past judgment was wrong.
Although it is not as good as a newborn baby as he just said, it is still more energetic than the lifeless Tevi Mansa.
Of course, all this may be because the reform of Crown Prince Helion was only half effective after compromise. Compared with Crown Prince Yin Lisel, who was almost scraping bones and healing poison, it was no less than one or two points!
Correspondingly, the impressions given to him by the two capitals were very different.
Until now, Xia Duo still can't figure out the true thoughts of King Yin Liseer Mian. Does he value power, or does he not care about power? And is the newly mentioned "co-prosperity of the five races" just a cover, or is it really true?
As for King Helion, almost the first time he saw the other person, he saw in the other person's eyes the desire for power, the confidence in himself, and of course a well-hidden disdain for human beings.
If Xia Duo was asked to choose a person he often dealt with, he would rather choose Helian, who showed everything, rather than Yin Lisel, who had been in power for thousands of years and whose mind may have been perverted.
…
Shado's honest evaluation made Helion stunned for two or three seconds before he said jokingly, "Human beings can always bring me surprises inadvertently. Lord Shado, drink this cup to the full!"
Looking at Helion who directly took the wine bottle and poured it into his mouth, his movements were not elegant at all, Sha Duo sneered in his heart and picked up the wine glass that he had already put aside.
Afterwards, the two sides exchanged views on the new situation in the North, especially on the demon descendants. Shado also learned for the first time that not long ago, a high mage follower of Helion died at the hands of a demon descendant assassin.
Judging from the timing of the attack and the traces afterward, Xia Duo speculated that it might have been the undiscovered secret palace. Of course, it was not ruled out that the Illuminati personally did it.
And he also speculated that it might be because of the death of the high mage's follower that King Helion had to compromise with the opponents, resulting in a situation where half of the wins may equal half of the losses.
Now, in front of him, an outsider, King Helion Mian almost unabashedly expressed his hatred for the demon descendants, as well as Ye Erlan's upcoming actions against the demon descendants.
"Lord Xia Duo should be able to hear the news soon. I hope we can find some key clues this time, and then we can completely understand the demon."
"hope so!"
Xia Duo was actually very dissatisfied with Ye Erlan's use of large-scale screening methods to find clues to demons, but if they were willing, he wouldn't be able to comment too much. Presumably, even if he raised objections, the other party wouldn't listen to him.
Just when Shado wanted to talk to Helion about the future positioning and goals of the Northland Alliance, a young elf who had just been in a wild mood suddenly dropped the wine glass in his hand to the ground, making a harsh sound.
And when almost everyone present was attracted by him, the young elf stood up from the banquet, walked straight to Xia Duo, stared at Xia Duo with scorching eyes, and said almost through gritted teeth:
"Human, I heard that you defeated Master Fres in Evereska. I want to challenge you to follow the ancient Tal Ash tradition. Do you dare to accept it?"
