Chapter 150: Come to the Door

As night fell, the manor gradually fell into silence, and only occasionally could the chirping of unknown insects be heard.

Several black and ferocious fortresses formed a rectangle on the ground like mushrooms, and in the middle of the rectangle was a stone door made of a whole piece of black stone.

"Master, there are currently 27 prisoners in the prison, all of whom are above the strength of mid-level knight attendants, and 12 of them were just sent here two days ago." Beren, the captain of the manor guard team, respectfully introduced the prison situation.

This private prison of the Soros family is located underground. Lu He walked in and took a casual look.

It is very simple, with more than a dozen small houses of more than ten square meters carved out of the underground rock wall. The exit is sealed with steel bars as thick as a thumb, leaving only a small window for placing food.

Unlike traditional prisons, there is no torture room, no terrifying torture tools, etc.

Rather than a prison, this is the actual combat training ground of the Soros family.

The prisoners were all knight attendants, and most of them were high-ranking attendants. Their origins were complicated. Some were from hostile forces, some were gangster elites, some were bandits, robbers... Anyway, as long as they were strong enough, they were captured by the Soros family.

The purpose was to serve as sparring partners for the Soros family knights to increase their practical experience.

After letting all the guards go out, Lu He casually opened a cell, where two single-clothed prisoners squatted.

One of the middle-aged men who looked a little tired was at a loss when he saw him come in. Maybe he found that Lu He was alone, and his eyes suddenly became extremely cruel.

"Why is there a little kid here today? ?"

"Crodie, don't smash it all, you must leave the lower body to me!"

Another person also looked over, with a faint morbid madness on his face, as if he had found a new toy.

At this moment, the strong man suddenly raised his arms, and the muscles on his two iron-like arms twisted up, and instantly hardened as steel, and slammed against Lu He's head fiercely.

"Die!!" There was a trace of ferocity on his face.

Lu He shook his head and his figure flashed.

Crack!

The sturdy man stood still, his entire upper body leaned back, bent more than 90 degrees, and fell backwards with a snap.

Bang! With a muffled sound, another man hit the wall, trembling all over, lying on the ground with a distorted face.

Both of them were not dead yet, they still had a breath, and their mouths were unconsciously spitting blood foam.

Lu He smiled and clapped his hands, his eyes glowed with black light.

Devour.

The second characteristic of the Black Prison Peacock Soul Seed was restored along with the mental power.

...

Late at night.

Lu He put down the book about the Sky Knight in his hand and thought about how to go next.

He expected that with the help of the devouring power, he would be able to fully recover the strength of a first-level wizard in about half a month at most.

The Knight's Path would not be abandoned directly, and he had to continue practicing on the surface as a cover-up. After all, he was not invincible.

And he was also very interested in the Sky Knight.

In addition, how to collect the resources needed for wizard training after the strength is restored is the top priority.

The most important reason why he cultivated so fast on Earth was that there were sufficient resources. Although the resources on Earth were scarce, they were more than enough for him.

So if you want to quickly reach the world's limit of the fourth level and then leave here, it is definitely not enough to just practice in seclusion. You must have resources, enough resources.

But this is not easy to operate in the current world. He can do whatever he wants on Earth, but not here.

There are too many strong people here, and if you go too far, you will be beaten up.

After thinking for a while, Lu He had a rough plan.

He put the book back on the bookshelf, cleaned up the clutter on the desk, put away the chairs and put them in order, and finally turned off the oil lamp. After finishing, he locked the door and left.

He has read almost all the books collected by the Soros family from past generations here, and he probably won't come again in the future.

…………

The next morning.

The green lawn was full of vitality and green, the petals of flowers were stained with dew, the thin mist in the air gradually dissipated, and the red sun slowly rose, spreading the mighty golden light.

The servants in the Soros Manor yawned, rubbed their sleepy eyes, pushed open the doors and windows of the house, washed up simply, picked up the cleaning utensils, and started daily cleaning work.

The guards took turns, and the night watchman pressed the hilt of the sword and strode to the dining room in the manor.

On the main road of the manor, a servant led a group of guests with different expressions to the reception hall.

"This Solon is so grand that he actually sent a low-level servant to receive us!"

The speaker was a young man in his twenties. He looked gentle and humble, but his words were very impolite, and he didn't hide them. Everyone who was traveling with him heard it.

Seeing the surprised look of Ryan, the Lord of Highland City, Lina looked embarrassed, secretly cursed him in her heart, and hurriedly approached the young man and explained in a low voice:

"Dylan, the Soros family now only has Earl Soron as the master, and the rest are servants."

"Then he should come to pick us up in person, we represent the Noble Council, and we represent the Speaker!" Dylan glanced at Lina and retorted.

"Besides, Soron is not Earl Soros yet, the royal family has not officially canonized him, and he is just a civilian now!"

"Lina, Dylan is right, we do not represent ourselves, but the Speaker, and Soron's disrespect to us is disrespect to the Speaker." Wall said with a serious face.

Lina took a deep breath, not wanting to argue with the idiot, she shut up and stopped talking.

She knew that both of them were resentful.

They had been in Highland City for a whole day, but they had not even seen Sauron.

From beginning to end, only a white-haired old butler was receiving them, and he was indifferent to them.

Last night, they were even notified to go back, saying that Soros's master Sauron had no time recently, he had to go to school every day, and was busy preparing for the final exams.

When he had time, he would go to the capital to attend the noble council and explain the situation to everyone at the meeting.

If they had not led the mayor of Highland City to block the door of Soros Manor this morning, they might not even see the real owner after running all the way here.

In fact, she also had resentment in her heart, but she hid it well and did not show it.

Because thinking about what the Soros family did, you can know the style of this family.

The manor guards seen along the way were all well-equipped and powerful.

You must have lived too long to act like this on someone else's territory.

"Ahem... Master Sauron is still a high school student, so he may not be very clear about these etiquettes. It's not intentional. Please understand, both lords."

Ryan coughed twice to smooth things over.

He felt that this trip was not good. The three envoys sent by the Council of Nobles seemed unreliable and impatient.

He was so angry at the beginning.

He wanted to say something, but gave up in the end, thinking that he was just a tax collector, why bother with so much.

At this time, Lu He was eating breakfast in the hall of the manor.

A large piece of medium-rare steak was placed on a white porcelain plate, and the rich aroma was fragrant. There were also eggs, ham, and a few white breads on another plate next to it.

It looked like a lot of breakfast, but even if you eat it all, you would only feel 70% full.

Lu He frowned and took a few bites and didn't want to eat anymore.

In the past, he had no choice but to eat, but now that his mental strength has recovered, replenishing energy has become simple.

Especially the devouring power of the Black Prison Peacock Soul Seed, no matter what it is, it can be devoured cleanly. Anyway, he has not met anything that he can't chew at present.

Really overbearing.

Sitting at the table was the half-elf Celya, who didn't like meat and only ate fruit every day, not even milk.

Celya took off her mask while eating, her thin face was extremely pale, and she was seriously malnourished.

Lu He didn't dare to draw blood recently. He used to draw about 100 ml every day, but now he has stopped for two days.

There was no one else except the half-elf. The other three owners of the manor, the three wives of the original owner's father, were gone.

Lu He didn't make things difficult for the three.

The eldest lady Hannah had gone to the original owner's sister Holly, the second lady chose to return to her parents' home, and the third lady was sunk to the bottom of the lake according to the local customs.

He picked up a glass of milk poured by the maid and took a sip. The taste inside was very strange, as if something was added, with a slight fishy smell and very sticky.

He raised the glass and looked carefully. A faint egg yolk could be vaguely seen in the white milk.

Lu He frowned, stood up and handed the cup to Selya: "Drink this, Selya, you need to replenish your body."

"Thank you, sir." Selya forced a smile.

Just as she was thinking about why she shouldn't drink, Jose, the housekeeper, came in from the corridor and came to the dining table.

"Master, the people from the capital are here, just outside the door."

"So soon? Then let them in." Lu He's heart moved slightly, and he sat down again, while signaling the half-elf to drink quickly.

Seeing this, Selya had a bitter face, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes and poured it all into her mouth.

"Eat more in the future, eat fruits, meat and milk, and have a balanced diet, so that your body will be healthy." Lu He nodded with satisfaction and asked the maid to fill it up again.

He decided to supervise the diet of this half-elf every day in the future and make her whiter and fatter.

Now she is thin and weak, and he is worried about ruining her.

Lina was the first to enter the room.

As soon as she came in, she saw high school student Zoro forcing a beautiful woman to drink white liquid.

If she was not mistaken, it should be goat milk.

A beautiful woman, should be the half-elf in the intelligence.

Dylan and Wall came in together.

After seeing the messy dining table in the middle of the hall, their faces became worse. They stared at Lu He at the table with gloomy faces, their eyes full of anger and dissatisfaction.

Socializing represents the face of the nobles. A good image is a respect for the guests and an important part of the etiquette of the nobles.

It is obviously impolite to meet guests during dinner, especially guests who come from afar.

Butler Jose is very concerned. Although the guests who come are not hospitable but bad guests, they cannot be treated so impolitely, which damages the image of the Soros family.

But the head of the family insisted, and his old arm could not twist his tender thigh.

So he could only bring people to the dining table.

Lu He was satisfied after seeing Selya drink another glass of milk and stopped forcing her.

She looked up at the four people at the door, waved, and asked with a smile: "Have you had breakfast? Do you want to sit down and eat together and chat while eating?"

"Thank you, Master Zoro. We had breakfast on the way here." Lina felt her companion's breathing getting heavier, so she quickly replied.

"Oh, forget it after you've eaten."

Lu He did not force it, but turned his eyes to Ryan who was saluting on the side, nodded slightly and said: "It's rare for Lord Ryan to come to Soros Manor, welcome."

"Don't stand, sit down and chat."

Butler Jose signaled the maid to bring the chairs over.

"Hmph!"

Dylan snorted heavily, did not sit down, but stared at Lu He motionlessly, and asked:

"Sauron, why do you refuse to meet with us again and again, and refuse to go to the Noble Council to report this incident to the members and the Speaker, are you guilty or is there some secret in it!?"

As soon as these words came out, the restaurant was silent.

Everyone looked at Dylan, and the emotions contained in their eyes were extremely complicated.

Even Selya raised her head, she wanted to see who this man was, and he was so brave.

Lu He looked at the young man with some surprise, he didn't look at them carefully after entering the door.

The man standing in the middle was the one who spoke. He was tall, handsome, and sunny. He wore a white wig and a red vest over his white shirt. He looked very energetic.

On his right was the girl who spoke first. She was wearing a fiery red leather armor that showed off her hot and perfect figure. She had a slender silver knight sword on her waist.

On his left was an elegant middle-aged man, the only knight among the three. He had a neatly trimmed black beard, wore a white tights with silver edges, a purple cloak, and held a dark green knight sword in his hand.

To be honest, except for the girl, the other two people's dress made Lu He feel hot. Recalling the bad scenes, he wanted to drag them into the corner and beat them up.

"You said that the Stuart family colluded with the Cliff family and committed crimes against humanity."

"But! Where is the evidence?"

"These are all your one-sided words!"

Dylan became more and more excited as he spoke, and found that everyone present was looking at him, and no one spoke to refute him.

Even the master, Sauron, looked at him silently. Especially when he felt the dull eyes of the beautiful half-elf, the excitement in his heart almost overflowed automatically.

"Miss Half-Elf, have you been coerced by Sauron to frame the Stuart and Korif families? You can speak out boldly now. Don't worry, I'm here today, no one dares to hurt you!"

Dylan looked at the half-elf with gentle eyes, feeling that his heart was about to melt.

It's not that he had never seen women before. He had seen many and played with many, but this kind of best of the best was the first time he met it. Half-elf, it really lived up to its reputation.

"Dylan, shut up!"

Lina glanced at the old butler next to her and found the terrible look in the turbid old eyes. It seemed that something was brewing in it, which made her feel chilled.

"Dylan, shut up." Wall also felt that he was a little too much and stopped him.

Another reason was that he saw a knight who came in, a knight with murderous intent, and the old man who brought them in also had murderous intent in his eyes.

Lu He put down the cup in his hand. He wanted to know something, so he looked at the girl in the trio who he thought was normal, and asked in confusion:

"Miss, why did you send such a cerebral palsy to deal with this matter?"

Lu He really couldn't understand. He had killed so many people and his sword had broken a lot, why was there still such a fearless young man running in front of him.

Lina was stunned, but before she could answer, Lu He waved his hand again, looked at the cerebral palsy, and said with a smile:

"I'm not saying they are anti-human, but they themselves admitted it. Why don't you go ask them?"

"Really? I don't believe it! Unless you call them over and we confront them face to face!" Dylan was a little suspicious.

"I'll send you to confront them." Lu He nodded at Mark.

"Kill them."

I'm not in a good state. I wrote for a day and only wrote one chapter. I'm still not satisfied...I'll make up for the past two days after I get better from the cold.
