Count Carlof Hosman stood in the center of the banquet hall and looked with satisfaction at the guests he had invited to show his astonished and admired look.

As always, he is still the center of this, the focus of all sight.

With an elegant and graceful smile, his eyes swept across every face of the scene, Viscount Carol, Grand Mercure, Count Pobo, which is a very weighty figure, and there are many more The ladies and gentlemen in the South who have the right to speak, pure and glorious, some of them have already inherited the title, and some are important heirs in the family or big people who can speak on behalf of the family. It is not easy to bring these people together, especially It was during this cold winter month that the visits of these great men were enough to prove that the name of the surname of Horsman in the South was as always, and in order to consolidate the authority of his surname, the Earl of Horsman was of course prepared. It was enough to match the "big meal" of the party.

That is what he spent a lot of effort, and finally got the magic net technology under the double efforts of big price and good luck.

The people clapped their hands, and Count Carlos Hossman smiled slyly. After the applause lasted for ten seconds, he shook the glass slightly, revealing a humble appearance: "I must admit that the ancestor who died and resurrected is one. A respectable person, he created something incredible - or maybe a little 'help' from some alien friends, but in any case, the magic net technology is amazing, and such a good thing should obviously Share it to everyone."

A nobleman in a dark blue velvet coat just took over the head of the Count of Hosman: "But if I remember correctly, the Duke of Cecil did not ban the outflow of the magic net - it is said to pass the Viscount of Lesley The guarantee and introduction, as long as enough money is paid, Cecil will send artisans to help those in need to build the magic net, and even build various devices based on the magic net."

"Of course, at a price, the Duke of Cecil would 'help' us to build the magic net," Earl Hosman greeted the noble representative, then smiled and shook his head. "But that is a big deal." Money! Our founding Duke is going to use the carriage to carry the gold coins in our castle – and more importantly, the things in the hands of others are ultimately unreliable, aren’t they? I really send people to help build the magic net, but it is not so much help, it is better to hold the technology firmly in the hand, if the magic net is broken, or not enough, we still need to spend a lot of money to put those Craftsmen are coming back... Compared to this almost endless investment, do you not feel that it is more cost-effective to get the technology to build the magic net?"

"It's true," Earl Poebo, who had pale blond curls and a slightly blessed figure, came forward with a smile. "My old friend, how did you get the technology in your hands?"

“With a little luck, I happened to meet two rune craftsmen who had been responsible for building the Magic Net in Tanzan Town, and the two rune craftsmen just wanted some better development prospects,” said Karlov. Earl Smarman said without hesitation, "They brought the drawings and partial construction techniques of the Magic Net - of course, for safety, I asked my scholars and wizard consultants to participate in the specific trial work, the final result. It’s satisfying. I made a magic net that can be used and is as efficient as Leslie’s mine magic net. You can look up the magic spar light in this castle, if you have the chance. You are also welcome to visit the magic tower behind the castle - they are now driven by Magic Net!"

"The mage on my land will be interested in this!"

"I am also very interested in myself - I am a mage myself."

"Country Horsman, how are you going to... share with us ‘the results?’

The aristocrats, big and small, have come round up, with compliments and sincerely exchanged information about the magic net with the Count of Hosman, because each of them knows the changes that Leslie has seen in the past few months. - Although they are quite vocal about the prince Andrew Leslie who has completely fallen to the Cecil family, they must admit that the ore produced in the mines in Tanzan town has been crushed in the past few months. It occupies many of the original ore markets in the south, with huge production and extremely low cost. This has made it difficult for some of the southern aristocrats who had been in the ore business and the Leslie family to fight.

They certainly want to get the same mining equipment and magic net system as Leslie, but the price is really daunting, and they are even more jealous of the fast-developing Cecil, not willing to directly with Cecil. There is too much to do with the collar – especially in the basic technology of the “magic net”.

Now, Count Horsman has succeeded in "stealing" the Magic Net. How can they not be tempted by this?

Although mining equipment still costs a lot of money to buy from Leslie or Cecil, at least they solve half of the problems and are still the basic energy issue.

The nobles are mediocre, but the mind is still there. They know the difference between the magic net and the mine magic machine. The latter is just a magic prop. If it is broken, it will lose money. The former is the foundation and the energy on the territory. If they can only rely on other people's artisans to build, they are absolutely not at ease. Only by letting their craftsmen master the technology of laying the magic net, they dare to use it with confidence.

But while the aristocrats, large and small, gathered around the Count of Hosman, there was a tall, thin figure that left the ballroom without moving.

Wearing a black woolen coat and a beard, the viscount Carol, who wears a crystal monocle, carries a wine glass around the waiter, and walks out of the banquet hall to the hallway outside the hall, slightly Sighed.

This castle is indeed brighter than ever - he is not the first time to visit the castle of the Count of Hosman, he can see a lot of magic crystals under the corridor, in the courtyard and even on the outer walls of the main building of the castle. Stone, under the abundant magic supply, the bright light almost makes this ancient castle show a crystal-clear texture. It seems that the Count of Hosman is right, he really got the magic net. Technology - and can't wait to use it in your own castle.

Viscount Carroll looked at the illuminated courtyard, and under the bright light of the surroundings, the starry sky over the courtyard seemed to be dim. His eyes swept away and suddenly found the people standing outside the hall. More than one.

A woman wearing a black court dress with a black sombrero and a thin body is standing not far from her. The lady’s dress looks very thin, but there is no magic in the first layer. The shield enveloped her, blocking the cold wind from winter nights.

Lope Nie, the woman of Gloria, is the richest in the South, but it may also be the most unfortunate widow.

"Ms. Roperi," Viscount Carol walked over with a glass of wine. He couldn't let such a lady stand alone on such a cold winter night. "Do you feel so boring in the hall?"

"Please call my title and surname, Mr. Viscount," said Lopney Gülen, looking at the Viscount Carol. Her eyes were deep and her cheekbones were high. The whole person still had a trace of illness, although she could still see it. Beauty, but there is no doubt that her beauty is going downhill in bad health and mood - but for many young aristocratic men, she still has full appeal. "This is a very formal banquet."

"But we are outside the banquet hall," said Viscount Carroll, laughing. After discovering that some of his humor did not get a response, he quietly shifted the subject. "Then, the girl of Gloria, you are on the magic net." Not interested?"

"The Count of Hosman just needs someone to tout him. After the end of the touting is the real money, I don't have to waste time and energy before," Roppenny Gülen said in a near-sounding way. Her style of speaking has always been like this. "And to be honest, my interest in Magic Net is really small. If the price offered by Earl of Hosman is not suitable, I will leave."

Viscount Carroll nodded with a smile: "I understand that Miss Glan is waiting for you to go home."

Referring to her only child, Ropeney Gülen's face was slightly relieved. She turned to look at the Viscount Carol and asked casually: "What about you? Are you not interested in the magic net?"

The Viscount Carol thought about it and revealed a somewhat exaggerated expression of distress: "To be honest, interested, but not interested."

Roppini Gülen finally had a curious look: "Oh?"

"The things from Cecil's collar are so strange," said Viscount Carroll, whispering in a low voice, but the volume was just right for people to hear. His subtle way of speaking was when he provoked the curiosity of the opposite sex. It’s not going to be bad. “I don’t know if you’ve noticed it. Now the South has been full of new gadgets from Cecil’s collars – all kinds of alchemy pharmacies, magic nets, mining machinery, and the quality money they cast, almost Overnight, when everyone didn't respond, Govin Cecil was everywhere..."

Speaking of this, the viscount of Carroll paused and opened his hand: "Even I myself, I will see at least Gaowen every day? Cecil's face is countless times - when counting money."

Rope Nie's mouth was slightly upturned: "I am fine, I only like the silver shield and the golden shield of the kingdom."

"You see, you are also a humorous person," Viscount Carroll immediately complimented, then took the wine glass and looked in the direction of the courtyard. "Many people are not aware of this penetration, but I have a sense of crisis. ... Cecil's 'new stuff' is too convenient, too cost-effective, no one can resist it, but you should also know that the more poisonous things, the more you will pretend to be sweet. People... those magical creations from Gavin Cecil are in my opinion as much as a poison..."

Viscount Carroll said that his eyes were inadvertently swept from the soldiers in the courtyard. In the keen eye of the lower-ranking knight, he saw a belt pack on the waist of a Hosman soldier. The crystal bottleneck of the section.

The crystal bottleneck also bears the logo of Cecil.

"We are afraid that we have been poisoned."

Roperie Gülen saw the Viscount Carol look: "So will you reject these poisons?"

Viscount Carol was silent for a moment and suddenly smiled: "Sometimes, poison is also a cure for illness - as long as everything is in our hands, it is like now, I will go back to the ballroom, go And the Count of Hosman entered the stage of 'real gold and silver'."
