At the end of the spiral staircase is a tall semi-arc colonnade. At the end of the colonnade are two gorgeous and heavy carved doors. The door is divided to the left and right, and there is a long and wide corridor inside. At the end of the corridor is another more ornate door, and behind the door is another corridor with more grand decoration...
There were four male servants at the front and back of each door dedicated to opening and closing the door, and dozens of guards lined up on both sides of each corridor. The uniforms worn by these guards are very similar to the uniforms of the Imperial Guards of the Holy Knights of the Earth Temple that Gu Hanhan once saw in the Dongdan Grand Council. They are all bright red, with patterns representing priesthood on the shoulders, and gold and silver threads on the collar. The symbol of the Crown of Thorns is embroidered with a gem-set inlay of swords and plowshares intertwined. The only difference was the badges they wore on their chests. The badges Dongdan saw on the chests of the temple guards were bottles and spring water, while the guards in the corridor wore complicated badges on their chests. Moreover, the textures of the guard badges on the left side of the corridor and the guard badges on the right side of the corridor are completely different.
"It's the Guards of the Holy Knights of the Earth Temple." Gal lowered his voice and told Gu Hanhan, "On the left is the Lightning Legion, and on the right is the Victory Legion."
Gu Hanhan immediately flinched - Holy Knights Legion? Does this mean that there are ninth-level knights present at this banquet?
Although Gu Hanhan didn't know what the "Temple Paladin Guards Corps" was, he could guess what kind of organization it was just by hearing the name. The Guards of the Holy Knights of the Earth Temple, as the name suggests, are the bodyguards of the Knights of the Earth Goddess!
Who is the important person that the five good young people insist on meeting with her? An old and sick man from the Earth Temple?
Gu Hanhan thought that in a situation like his, it was best not to hang out in front of old and sick people.
However, when she said no, Gu Hanhan found that it was equally difficult to retreat in the face of battle - she glanced behind her and found that the door had been closed, and the knight army guards on both sides were like silent stones, standing solemnly and motionless, without squinting. It exudes a very powerful oppressive aura. Gu Hanhan thought that if he turned around and ran away now, he would probably become more suspicious and might end up being arrested and interrogated.
When the two phases retreated, Gu Hanhan had no choice but to move forward. What else to do is to pray while walking that the holy knight inside should be Maximilian - at any rate, he is an unmistakable handsome guy. Once you see it, it will at least be eye-catching, and it will not be in vain. It's better than others who are just a worried old sick man.
The deeper you go into the corridor, the more complex the shoulder emblems of the guards on both sides become, representing their higher clerical rank. Gu Hanhan walked through five corridors and passed through six doors. After the sixth door, the field of view suddenly more than doubled, entering a horizontal hall perpendicular to the corridor. This is a banquet hall composed of three palaces connected in series. There is a palace on the left and right sides of the central corridor. The door between the palaces is open, and there is a cross-shaped aisle in the center.
It can be seen that on both sides of the carpet in the corridor, behind the upright and solemn guards, many high-level superpowers in gorgeous uniforms and senior officers of the Knight Army with extremely complicated patterns on their epaulettes are standing together in twos and threes, talking quietly to each other. When Gu Hanhan passed by, they stopped talking and looked at Gu Hanhan.
Being watched by so many high-level superpowers, the five good girls from Earth couldn't help but speed up their pace. They quickly passed through this horizontal hall. David's two super-level seven servants stayed in the banquet hall and did not move forward. Only the deputy chief attendant and the valet Charles who Gu Hanhan was familiar with accompanied her into the cross aisle. The door opposite.
Behind the door is a circular waiting hall, directly opposite are four huge doors, with two rows of servants standing at the door. On both sides of the door, surrounding the waiting hall, there are six arches on the surrounding walls. Between the arches, there are many groups of backless low chairs arranged in groups of twelve against the walls. Currently, half of the low chairs are occupied.
As soon as Gu Hanhan walked into the waiting hall, the third archway in the middle on the left hand side opened, and David Duran's servants surrounded him and walked out of the door.
As soon as David saw Gu Hanhan, he walked over to her, smiled and said to her: "You have just enough time, there are two adults you must meet."
"Who?" Gu Hanhan couldn't help but asked nervously.
"Mochi and Grigo, knights of the Earth Goddess." David handed his arm to Gu Hanhan, comforting her and saying, "Don't be afraid, nothing will happen. You just need to follow me. They also Just a regular guy, and much older than me.”
Gu Hanhan said in his heart: I am scared just because I am much older than you.
She deliberately asked the five good young men why she had to see those two old and sick men. But David had already led her all the way to the four doors. The waiter at the door opened the door and immediately announced: "His Excellency David Duran has arrived."
"No matter what accident happens, don't say anything or do anything. Just sit there and leave everything to me." David kept walking and whispered to Gu Hanhan, and then directly Dragging Gu Hanhan in.
The five good girls from Earth were shocked when they heard David's words, and were still thinking about delaying it. When they reacted, they found that they were already inside.
The place where they are now is a living room that is large enough for a dance party. There are many servants in the room, but they are all scattered in the corners. Compared with the space of the entire living room, it is far from the Acropolis evil habit. Degree. An old man was leaning on the sofa next to the bookshelf. He was not wearing a stiff dress, but a plain soft robe. The only decoration was the huge secret book between his fingers, but he had an aura that was one with the universe. Behind the old man stood a middle-aged man with shoulder-length black hair.
On the road leading from the living room to the terrace, a middle-aged man was standing outside the French door, smoking a cigarette. He wore a gorgeous coat, but it was open and unbuttoned, which made him look even taller and more outstanding. He possesses a vast majesty that is like a burning star, possessing endless power. Gu Hanhan only glanced at him, her heart was pounding, and she nervously restrained her energy waves inward again to avoid being affected by her. Opposite the middle-aged man, a handsome and luxuriously dressed young man helped him carry the ashtray with one hand. He frowned slightly and occasionally turned his eyes, which was so dazzling.
David lowered his head slightly and called the old man on the sofa "Lord Moqi" and the middle-aged man smoking on the terrace "Lord Grigory." Then he took Gu Hanhan's hand and introduced: "This is Hanhan, I brought it here specially for today’s banquet to show you two adults.”
Grigo turned his head and stared at Gu Hanhan's face seriously for a few seconds. He didn't know what he saw. He muttered softly: "Look, what's the use of just looking?" Well..." After being looked at harshly by the handsome aristocratic young man across from him, he reluctantly closed his mouth and put out half of the cigarette in his hand in the crystal glass jar.
"This is not easy. This is the third year, right?" Mo Qi turned to ask the dark-haired man behind him. After receiving a positive answer, he laughed: "This banquet has been held for three years. One day I finally saw David bring the girl over, it seems that our little David has really grown up."
"Please sit down, little girl," Mochi looked kind-hearted, "Let them get you some favorite things, otherwise it will be boring hanging out with old guys like us."
So, David sent Gu Hanhan to sit on a long chair, while he casually stood next to Gu Hanhan and put his hand on his shoulder. The valet in the room immediately brought some fruits, snacks, drinks and toys on a tray, which were probably things that a girl of Gu Hanhan's age would like.
After settling in, Mochi asked: "Healer?"
"No, she's a girlfriend." David replied, emphasizing, "It has nothing to do with healing, Han Han is just my lover."
Mochi and Grigo looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. Mo Qi said with humor: "So it's good to be young. Old and immortal guys like us, even if we have a lady we love, it's hard to admit that we are our girlfriends."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sneer sounded in his ears. The laughter was sharp and ruthless: "You just know that you are immortal!"
Gu Hanhan immediately felt sincere admiration and said to her heart that this eldest sister is really awesome. Even a good girl like me, who is born as a professional sugar daddy, can only dare to curse "old sick ghost" in her heart. I really admire you for being able to scold "old people" in person and sneer at the same time, but I just don't know who you are, eldest sister?
Gu Hanhan was impressed and looked over following the sound, only to find that in a corner of the living room, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, there were seven or eight extremely handsome young men standing or kneeling around a woman on the imperial concubine's couch. The woman leaned back on the couch, covering her forehead with her palms, and sneered again and again. She sounded very young, but her figure was thin, her hair was dry and yellow, and her face was pale. Even heavy makeup could not hide her withered appearance. The back of her hand covering her forehead was blue and white, and blue blood vessels could be clearly seen on her arms. The whole person showed an aura of decay and decay from the inside out.
Gu Hanhan felt that this woman looked very familiar, and then her mind suddenly thought, "Isn't this Senior Sister Jasmine?" After not seeing each other for two months, why did she become like this?
As a result, Gu Hanhan couldn't stand the admiration anymore. For some reason, his eyes were sore and he almost shed tears.
Jasmine's laughter was sharp and hysterical. Because of her weak body, she was out of breath after laughing a few times, turned over her shoulders, lay on the couch and coughed violently. The handsome young men around her immediately gathered around her diligently, touched her chest, gave her medicine and water, and served her considerately.
Grigo took a few nervous steps toward the door and said, "Don't be angry, Jasmine, and be careful with yourself."
Mo Qi also regretted it. He walked to the bed and touched her back in person, comforting her softly: "Okay, my little Jasmine, I will die soon. It really won't take long this time. Don't worry. "
But Jasmine pushed Mo Qi away and struggled to sit up with the strength she didn't know where she came from.
"David," she looked over with a hazy and forlorn look. She forced herself to ask in a weak voice, "Did you bring me a birthday gift?"
