Starting From the Dragon Clan To Penetrate the World

Vol 2 Chapter 146: : Dinner for the Laurent family

The people who were going to the banquet today were almost due, and suddenly the lights in the venue went out.

Darkness enveloped the castle again, but only for a moment.

Because a pair of fireflies-like eyes ignited in the dark, the light of the golden pupil was refracted on the wine glass, so that people could see the faces of the people around them clearly.

Lu Chen glanced at the people around him, and didn't have any thoughts of admiration. Instead, he glanced at Milana, who had already lit his golden eyes, and meant...that's it?

It’s not that Lu Chen looks down on these people. According to his observations, if according to the Kassel Academy’s grading standards, there are only seven or eight of the hundreds of people in the venue that can reach the A-level level. The others are basically B-level mixed breeds. , There are even C-level mixed races, the golden pupil's light is very weak.

"President, you seem to have some misunderstandings about the mixed-race world."

Milana understood what Lu Chen meant, and explained to him in a low voice: "B-grade mixed race is already considered a good elite. A-grade is at the top of the mixed race society. It is rare. We are the freshman. Among the students, there are only 14 A-level students."

Lu Chen nodded, "I understand, not all mixed-race families want to send their children to Kassel College to study dragon slaying."

"Yes, most of the families present rely on the accumulation of their ancestors. In the new era, relying on the mental and physical advantages of the mixed race, they have gained capital expansion in the wind and become the'powers' of the new world."

Lu Chen suddenly felt that this was a very normal thing. It was like ancient generals fighting on the battlefield in exchange for a lifetime of feats, but there were many generals who worked so desperately for the purpose of not wanting future generations to go so desperately.

The generals who were born in mud-legged fought for a lifetime, and his descendants inherited the title of the general, but "fighting" on the streets of the capital, the younger generations, whether they are dudes or promising ones, often choose to rely on their status. Secretly do business to earn money and live a comfortable life as a rich man.

No father wants his son to die on the battlefield.

Thinking about it this way, some of the mixed-race families who sent their children to the Kassel Academy are not very financially rich.

Of course, parents cannot completely direct young people to "fill in their volunteers." Just like Brother Caesar, the Gattuso family is already the world's top power family, but he still chooses to come to Kassel Academy.

In the words of Brother Caesar, he just likes to challenge and like to prove himself.

From Lu Chen's point of view, Brother Caesar was just arguing with the family. Originally, Lu Chen thought that Brother Caesar was indeed a middle-two boy.

However, he heard that the Gattuso family was still the number one pioneer among the school directors who "fired" on himself and the principal. He understood some of Brother Caesar. Although some were preconceived, the Gattuso family had already left a bad impression on him. .

He also asked Brother Caesar about the Gattuso family. Brother Caesar only replied, "It has nothing to do with me, Brother Lu is free."

Even Lu Chen was surprised at Brother Caesar's indifferent and loyal. After all, he heard that Caesar's father seemed to be alive, although the current acting school director was Caesar's uncle.

"So, the person in control of power may not be the one in power."

Lu Chen commented lightly that he somewhat understood what the mixed-race society is like today.

"Most of them are like this. Although the bloodlines of some families are still pure and the purity of dragon blood has not decreased, they have never set foot on the battlefield, and they don't understand what true power is."

As he said, Milana changed her voice again, "However, the families that stand at the top of the mixed race have always coexisted power and power. They control the wealth of the world and have the sword of conviction."

At this time, the lights were turned on again, and it was just an ancient, traditional ceremony in a mixed-race society, to prove that this was a mixed-race dinner.

Lu Chen smiled slightly with sarcasm on his face, "A sharp sword to convict? Whose sin is to be condemned? Do they regard themselves as gods?"

Milana felt that it was not good to slander the school manager like this, but she also agreed with Lu Chen's point of view, "Some school managers do regard themselves as God."

"What about your family? It sounds like the hotel business is not like a family that loves to fight and kill. Why did you come to Kassel College?"

Lu Chen looked at Milana again. Now he knows more about the Kassel Academy. This is indeed an academy for Tu Long. Whether you enter the executive department after graduation or not, being "assigned to employment" is definitely related to the dragon family. Like on the battlefield, there are regular troops and logistics troops.

"me?"

Milana smiled, "I just read too many stories when I was young, so I wanted to be a dragon-slaying hero. It is more exciting to step on the battlefield with a knife than to go to the Royal Academy to study art and paint."

Lu Chen lifted the glass, Milana raised it, lowered it a little, and clinked with him, and the two of them drank the wine gracefully without any concern about the nobility.

If the teacher in the etiquette class saw this scene, it is estimated that they would fail both at the end of the semester, and they would have lost everything they learned.

"The principal didn't lie to me. As expected, those who can join the Lionheart Club are all heroes."

Lu Chen smiled, but felt that the wording was a little inappropriate, and changed his words: "Milanla should be regarded as a heroine."

Milanra didn't care about Lu Chen's words, "The president is the leader among the heroes."

In the center of the venue, Sebastian Laurent greeted everyone before ending his speech.

Lu Chen didn't listen carefully. In layman's terms, it probably means "eat and drink well, everyone."

But after the official speech, Sebas did not withdraw from the central area, and seemed to have something to say.

With a graceful smile, he spoke brightly, "But we also welcomed a special guest tonight. I believe all the guests present have already noticed, but please let me introduce it to you again..."

The old butler’s golden pupils are bright, and he smiles broadly and politely, but the person who looks at him will feel pressure inexplicably. With the movement of his eyes, the guests consciously disperse, like It was stabbed out of a passage, and at the end of the passage stood a young girl.

Everyone's eyes gathered, and with the lead of the host of the dinner, they can have a reason to observe this young man.

"...A freshman of Kassel College, the current president of the Lionheart, a unique S-level among the students, a new legend who has just killed the next generation...Mr. Lu Chen."

The voice of the old housekeeper was simmering and faltering. Every time he said a title, he increased his tone. It seemed that there was an invisible scale in the venue. The bargaining chips were added up again and again, until the name of the boy was completed. It was the introduction and praise of the boy. , It seems that the weighing of its value has finally been completed.

It has been a while since young girls entered the venue, and many people have recognized Milana's identity, knowing that this is also an excellent daughter of a large family, but at this moment, no one is paying attention to her anymore.

The eyes of those people are fiery, some are in awe, some are greedy.

Many families who have funded the Kassel Academy are eager to get a share of the dragon body of the next generation, but everyone knows that compared to the dead next generation, the young man who can kill him is bigger. Treasure.

There was thunderous applause, but the boy was expressionless.

"Mr. Lu Chen, thank you for attending today's dinner and accepting the friendship of the Laurent family."

The old butler walked through the crowd, with a gentle and elegant smile, reaching out to Lu Chen.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is a very friendly smile, but in Lu Chen's eyes, the old man smiled like this to everyone since he appeared on the scene, as if it had been carved into his bones. It was just a mask, a mask smile. No matter how close you are, it is also a dead thing. You don't know what is hidden under the mask.

Milana glanced at Lu Chen and suddenly felt a little nervous. She didn't know why, but it seemed that the other party was not happy at this time.

When Lu Chen raised her hand and shook hands with the old housekeeper, she was relieved.

"Friendship of the Laurent family? It seems that you can represent the Laurent family."

For the first time, Lu Chen spoke to the public in the venue, but the content of the words made many people look upset. They whispered, feeling that the S-Class of the academy seemed unfriendly.

The old butler was not angry, and still smiled politely, "Of course, today's dinner was hosted by the Laurent family, and I was sent as a representative."

Lu Chen let go of the old housekeeper's hand, nodded, and stopped talking.

"Mr. Lu Chen, as the new legendary dragon slayer of the secret party, don't you have anything to say to everyone?"

However, the old butler continued to question.

Lu Chen put the empty wine glass in the silver plate brought by the waiter. "First of all, I think you should call me Commissioner Lu. I am only presenting tasks on behalf of the Academy. Secondly, I am not a legendary dragon slayer, legendary. It’s always history."

"But the current leader of the secret party, Hilbert Jean Angers, the principal of your school, has not yet turned into history."

The old butler took a glass of red wine from the waiter's silver plate and handed another glass to Lu Chen.

"The principal has lived a long time. Of course he can be regarded as history, living history, and I am just a young man."

Lu Chen took the wine glass, but didn't mean to clink with the other party.

"Young people live longer than old people, and Commissioner Lu will eventually become a legend."

The old butler complimented.

Lu Chen didn't answer immediately, a pair of red gold eyes lit up, and an invisible aura immediately filled the entire space. He glanced at the venue, and everyone who stared at him unconsciously avoided those eyes.

Finally he looked at the old butler again, and the other person still did not squint, "I thought it was a swearing ceremony for the Laurent family as the savior of the home, but now it seems that you are just exchanging feelings and everyone is just talking Business, a transaction of power and power."

Yes, since the appearance of the old butler, he has treated many guests to the banquet with warm hospitality and close words, but has never mentioned the disappearance of Elizabeth, nor has the families mobilized to provide intelligence in their own areas of expertise.

It seems that this is just an ordinary exchange dinner between the nobles, everyone sings and dances, talks happily, clinking glasses to seek more benefits for the family.

The Laurent family does not mention the disappearance of the Patriarch, and no one will take the initiative to bring up the trouble.

When the old butler set his sights on himself, Lu Chen realized that the Laurent family was not in a hurry to retrieve their Patriarch. The protagonist of this banquet was him, not Elizabeth, who had disappeared.

"Lisa's disappearance is of course a heavy blow to the family, but what is the use of our anxiousness? The world will always continue to run, and the academy has already sent an elite like Commissioner Lu, so why don't we worry about it? ?"

The old man brought up Elizabeth's disappearance, put on a sad expression, and said that finally, his face showed peace of mind.

Lu Chen suddenly felt funny, and he finally understood.

Yes, the principal will worry about Elizabeth's safety because Elizabeth is the only firm supporter of the school board, and Elizabeth is also the child of his deceased.

But for a large family like Laurent, Elizabeth's disappearance is not something that will worry everyone, or that many people may be quite happy at this time.

After all, a young girl is the master of the house, and her position may not be as stable as he had previously imagined.

The Laurent family is not extinct anymore. The owner of the family can be changed again. For them, wealth and power are eternal. The missing is just a girl from the Laurent family. They really don’t have to worry. This can’t shake the family. Foundation.

"You said that the world always has to keep going, and it seems that you think you are the world."

Lu Chen smiled. The recent etiquette class was not in vain after all. He did not show a mocking smile, but the words were undoubtedly stinging.

Milan Ra originally wanted to remind Lu Chen, but then suppressed the idea again, it didn't matter.

Anyway, she has always known that the president is not a person who loves to kneel and lick power, and the mixed-race family that is here today seems to be like that. On the final battlefield, there is always a need for someone like the president to take the lead in the charge. , Not those politicians who can only calculate.

"Don't dare to have such arrogant thoughts, Commissioner Lu may have misunderstood what I meant~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The old butler said humblely.

Lu Chen waved his hand. He didn't want to waste any more time. "I said before. Today is not here for a banquet. This is just a part of the task investigation process. I just want to ask you, the two people under the Laurent family are now where?"

He didn't come here to listen to songs and dances and accept compliments from everyone. The Laurent family is here, so it's better for him to ask in person.

The commissioner of the executive department could not be found, but he did not believe that the Laurent family had no news about his own people.

"Commissioner Lu is asking about the whereabouts of the two children?"

The old steward asked knowingly, but when he saw those red gold eyes, he immediately continued: "Strictly speaking, they do not belong to the Laurent family. They are just working for us. We are not ancient slave owners. They have complete Personal freedom, they disappear at this time, and of course the Laurent family can't find their whereabouts."

Lu Chen stared at the old housekeeper’s eyes until sweat slipped off the opponent’s forehead. The old housekeeper put his hand on his chest and bowed slightly: "Seeing Commissioner Lu taking the task so seriously, the Laurent family is relieved."
