Originally, he thought that it would just be a big family dinner to end this uninteresting New Year Festival and get a reward.
But in the evening, it ushered in a pleasant surprise.
"Marquis Merlin, long time no see." The speaker was a middle-aged man in a gorgeous magic cloak, wearing three gemstone rings of different colors on his hand.
They were light yellow, light red, and blue.
"Mr. Grimaldi, why didn't you stay in the palace? Why did you come here?" Marquis Merlin was a little surprised by the arrival of the other party.
"I came with the blessing of the Grand Duke."
"The Grand Duke has troubled himself. Let's begin, Mr. Grimaldi."
Grimaldi smiled slightly and raised his hand with three rings high. The next moment, the brilliance on the rings reflected each other and turned into several beams of light that shot straight into the dark night sky. These beams of light were magic, and they suddenly exploded in the air a hundred meters high.
Boom!
The red beam burned a large area of flames, like a cloud of fire.
Boom!
The blue beam set off a mass of water, rolling like waves in the sky.
Boom!
The purple beam bloomed with lightning, interspersed between the flames and the water mass, making a loud thunder.
Boom!
The cyan beam finally exploded and turned into a huge gust of wind, stirring the flames, water, and lightning into a mass, constantly changing various shapes over the Longtaro Castle.
This magical picture made all the people in the Longtaro Castle look up at the sky and enjoy the magic wonders. Even the distant cities could see the magical spectacle above the Longtaro Castle, and they clicked their tongues in amazement.
About a quarter of an hour.
The magic wonders gradually dissipated, a few drops of rain fell, and everything was calm again.
"Marquis Merlin, I have brought the Grand Duke's blessing." Mr. Grimaldi bowed slightly and said calmly.
Marquis Merlin returned the salute and said with a sigh, "Although it's just a flashy magic show, I have received the Grand Duke's kindness. Thank you, Mr. Grimaldi, for your hard work. Please share the New Year's dinner with me."
"It's not an honor."
Accompanied by Marquis Merlin, Grimaldi nodded to Messiro and others and entered the Longtaro Castle.
On the other side, Liszt had already inquired about the identity of the other party. Meopal explained in detail: "Grimandan Truth, a great wizard consecrated by the court. He is proficient in the six elements of wind, water, fire, earth, lightning, and ice magic, but he is most formidable in researching and designing magic equipment, especially magic rings."
"The three rings he's wearing?" Liszt asked again. He remembered that he had cheated Curtis Truth's phylactery, which was a sapphire ring. He did not find anything special about it.
The shape is very similar to the Ring of Magic on Grimmandan's hand.
Perhaps it was a Magic Ring.
Meopal nodded: "That's right, they are definitely three magic rings. It was a piece of equipment that used the power of the Dragon Gem to increase the power of a Magician's magic. Because the engraving of magic runes is different, it's not very useful to us Knights, but it's a priceless treasure to Mages. "
Hearing was of no use to the Knight.
Liszt could not help but be a little disappointed.
It seemed that the magic runes on Curtis' phylactery and the sapphire ring were also specially engraved for Mages. He could not use them and could only collect them as souvenirs.
Suddenly, an idea flashed: "It would be better to simply take out the sapphire on the sapphire ring, scrape off the magic runes, re-engrave them, and let someone make a gemstone weapon? I already have a suitable Redblood Sword, and it would be best to make a gemstone spear suitable for charging. "
He even thought of a name. It would be called the Blueblood Spear, matching the Redblood Sword.
As for the phylactery function of the sapphire ring, Curtis' soul was obliterated with the collapse of the ghost ship, so of course, it was not needed.
"However, if this sapphire ring is exposed now, won't people think of something? Besides, can the gems that have already been used be recycled? "
It was unknown.
He just had an idea. Soon, he returned to the dining room and started the New Year's Day dinner.
On the dining table, rich high-end food, luxury crystal tableware, and old cellar wine, all show the wealth of the Taro family.
Great Mage Grimaldi and Marquis Merlin talked and laughed, from time to time talking about a few palace secrets that were not very private.
The young people also toasted each other and wished each other well in the New Year.
The servants kept coming in and out, taking away the plates that were replaced after only two bites, and bringing in a variety of new dark dishes. Two-year-old Luo Xi somehow became noisy, his little hands clapping randomly, directly knocking the crystal tableware on the table down, falling to the ground and breaking.
The servants of the Longtaro Castle cleaned up the damaged tableware with a smile, and the people at the table did not care.
Even after a year, Liszt still did not develop a taste for dark cuisine, so he ate very politely. He even sighed in his heart when he was bored, "Wine and meat stink at the door of the Zhu family, but there are frozen bones on the road."
The luxury of the Longtaro Castle, even the crystal tableware can be broken at will.
The price of a crystal tableware may be enough for a civilian to eat black bread for a year.
The backward level of productivity makes it difficult for civilians to eat and wear warm clothes. Even the serfs of the Longtaro Castle, with countless elves assisting in agriculture, will still struggle to survive. Although the yield in the fields will be high, it also means heavy taxes, after all, to maintain the life of the Longtaro Castle.
Food, use, clothing, and the equipment of the Armed Knight, all output comes from the farming of civilians.
"What are you thinking about, distracted?" Lvera sat next to Liszt, leaned over and whispered, "Are you thinking about your subordinates, such as a female attendant dressed as a mercenary with a face scarf?"
After coming to Red Crab Island and recovering from the trauma of the ghost ship, Lvera became interested in Paris again, and found a lot of female mercenaries to contact.
Like recruiting female mercenaries, Liszt did not interfere in this – he lost if he could win them over.
Hearing this, he elegantly cut the World of Warcraft barbecue and casually replied: "No, I am thinking about world peace."
"Haha." Lvera laughed, "Liszt, I never found you to be so humorous."
Liszt also laughed. He had the self-deprecating feeling of 'others laugh at me for being too crazy, I laugh at others for not seeing through me'. "We should do something meaningful in life, and the desire for world peace is very meaningful. Of course, we need to understand that it is best to set a small goal that we can achieve first."
"What is your small goal?"
"For example, I want to ride a dragon first."
"Haha!" Lvera laughed.
On the other side, cousin Russell also laughed: "Yes, I also want to set a small goal, I also want to ride a dragon."
