Gifts from nobles piled up like a mountain. The nobles chatted with each other after the gifts were sent. Such a grand banquet was a rare place to socialize.
As time passed …
Suddenly someone trotted over and whispered in Kerry's ear as the banquet was halfway through.
Kerry was stunned as he heard the other person's words. There was excitement and joy on his face as he whispered to Dudian: "Two masters of wood element are coming. I'll go and greet them." Then he turned and trotted away.
Dean was surprised. He had heard from Kerry that the Temple wouldn't disturb the masters in order to avoid delaying the master's research and destroying the divinity. If it was a normal 'epoch' medal winner then they would naturally be invited to attend the banquet. But he didn't expect that a master would volunteer to attend the banquet.
The door of the castle was pushed open under Kerry's lead. Two old men wearing robes came into the hall. They were followed by two middle-aged men and a middle-aged woman. The color and style of the robes were different from the two old men. Dudian recognized that they were the robes of senior architects.
The nobles who were standing at the edge of the door and chatting saw the group of guests as they entered the hall. The nobles who were sitting on the sofa exclaimed in low voices when they saw the robes of the guests.
The exclamations quickly spread to the ears of Rudolph, Old Fulin and others. Everyone looked back and were surprised. Some of the nobles who were resting on the sofa couldn't help but stand up.
Dudian saw the reaction of the nobles. He felt the charm and value of the masters of the Temple of Elements. He quickly went to greet them. He saw that they were smiling and had kind expressions. Their old eyes were full of wisdom. Their clothes were simple and there was a lot of dust on their robes. It was obvious that they didn't pay much attention to their appearance.
"Greetings, masters." Dean stepped forward and said.
The tall and thin old man on the left laughed: "You are the maker of the new textile machine. You didn't join the Temple of Elements but you won the 'epoch' medal. You are the second person to win the 'epoch' medal. But Hogg was much older than you. He was in his fifties and won the 'epoch' medal with his self-created 'Hogg crossbow'. He dominated the 'ancient war' at that time."
Dudian replied: "You are overpraising me."
The short and fat old man on the right laughed: "We have just heard the news of the banquet. We took the liberty to disturb you. Please don't blame us."
Dudian saw that the old man was so polite: "It's my honor that the two masters are willing to come to my banquet. I didn't expect the two masters to come. Please forgive us."
"Give us two chairs. Let's take a rest." The old man on the left laughed.
Kerry who was next to them said: "Masters, please. I'll immediately ask someone to prepare tea for you."
The old man on the right nodded and said to the three people behind him: "Talk to Mr. Dean. Although Mr. Dean is younger than you, but his knowledge may not be less than yours. Learn well."
"Yes, teacher."
"Yes."
The two middle-aged men and the middle-aged man immediately responded in a respectful manner.
The nobles around them couldn't help but look at Dudian as they heard the words of the two old men. They didn't expect that the boy who had just joined the Temple of Elements would get such a high evaluation from the two masters. For a time, many nobles secretly regretted that the gifts they had sent were too low.
Rudolph's eyes were gloomy. His fingers that were holding the glass slightly tightened.
Dean chatted with his three students after the two masters left.
"Hello, my name is Momo." The shorter middle-aged man in the middle revealed a bashful smile and said: "It's our first time meeting, so I didn't bring anything for you. When we go back to the Temple, if you lack any materials, you can tell me. But don't buy anything that's too expensive." At this point, his face flushed.
Dudian didn't expect the middle-aged man to be as shy as a teenager. He immediately said: "Thank you. I'll ask you for advice if I have any problems."
"Great! I also want to discuss with you." Momo said in a happy tone.
There was a trace of helplessness in the eyes of the other middle-aged man. He looked at Dudian: "Hello, my name is Kimba. I'm majoring in military engineering. I heard that you are a hunter. If you need any combat equipment in the future I can sell you a few sets for free. I've improved my own crossbows and arrows."
Dudian touched his nose: "I'll trouble you if I need it."
"It's nothing." Kimba waved his hand.
* * * * * looked at Dean as he waited for them to finish their introductions: "My name is Ximo. Just like you, we are studying civil inventions. Your new textile machine has given me a lot of inspiration. Thank you very much!" She bowed and saluted.
The nobles around were shocked. They were interested in Dean's new textile machine because of the benefits it could bring. They didn't expect that a senior architect would pay respect to it because of its status in the world of divinity.
Dean was also quite surprised, but then he was relieved. He had seen many scientists and researchers with his father since childhood. They were excited when they found the direction of the experiment. The significance of the new textile machine was that it was the beginning of a new era. Moreover, it was the beginning of the steam era. It was also the starting point for mankind to conquer the earth and step into the universe!
The higher the status of the architect, the more they could see the extraordinary significance of the new textile machine.
"You're too kind." Although surprised, Dudian's hands didn't slow down. He quickly lifted it up.
Kimba saw Dudian's actions and nodded: "Let's talk on the side. There are too many people here."
The three of them nodded and sat down on the sofa at the edge of the long table.
Kimba was the more stable one among the three. He tentatively told Dudian about some of the more basic wood type inventions from civil engineering to military engineering. He found out that Dudian wasn't as ignorant as he thought. Dudian had his own unique views on many of the inventions. Especially the expression that was revealed when he talked. He was full of confidence and convincing people.
