After waking up

At the end of the corridor ahead, the two affectionate young nobles were almost at the end, but Mulan stopped. He tried his best to relax himself, empty his mind, and let his spirit and perception maintain a highly similar frequency, similar to a meditative state.

Sure enough, that dim feeling reappeared, and a fine particle-like dark mist vaguely appeared in the corridor. Mulan looked back and saw that he had the same feeling behind him. Then he looked out the window on one side, a little further away. Everywhere was gray, and only the location where I was standing maintained a faint light in the darkness.

‘It’s too conspicuous! ’

Mulan was shocked. After thinking about it, he reached into the inside of his coat, gently touched the wheel light, and used his mind to imagine some kind of command.

Sure enough, Mulan's guess was correct. The light around him immediately dimmed until it disappeared, and he was completely integrated into the darkness.

Mulan didn't know the reason for the current situation. He only knew that he might be in trouble. After hesitating for a moment between leaving the earl's manor immediately and moving on, Mulan gritted his teeth and chose the latter. This is a matter of weighing the pros and cons as well as personality factors.

The influence of the original body and the personality of the soul gave Mulan, who was holding the wheel light in his hand, a tilt in his heart. Compared to the extremely difficult to control and extremely real nightmare, Mulan preferred the feeling of reality.

The descendants of the Jonest family may no longer be knights, but the faith engraved in their bones and a kind soul can still burst out with courage.

Mulan walked towards the hall at a normal pace. Although the corridor had a deep feeling, its actual length remained the same. Soon he arrived at the hall.

The music was still going on and people were still dancing. Mulan looked as usual and walked to the table with the dinner plate in his hand. He put the plate down naturally and then walked to the edge while observing everywhere in the hall and everyone.

During this period, Mulan also asked Aiwen many things about the mysterious world. After Aiwen confirmed that Mulan had strong mental restraint ability, he tried his best to satisfy Mulan's curiosity with his own knowledge, and let Aiwen, who was still an ordinary person for the time being, Mulan maintains a safe boundary. Although Mulan cannot understand too deeply, at least he is not ignorant.

The other world is very dangerous, but under normal circumstances it is separated from reality. Because of the nature of the other world, the overlapping bond between the two is not only the mysterious elements in the world, but also the spirit.

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back into you!

The relationship between ordinary people and the other world is roughly the same. The more they understand the other world and it is difficult to restrain their spirit, then various imaginations and fearful emotions about the other world will make people’s spirits closer to the other world, and start to cause certain things. Pay attention, until a certain boundary becomes blurred, at that time, the person involved and even the person around him will become more and more dangerous.

Different from supernatural beings and mysterious things that appear directly in reality, many things in this world have no form or are temporarily incarnate in the real world, such as terrifying monsters, dead ghosts, and strange powers.

They are always longing for and resenting

Mulan knew that his perception was actually a perception of the closeness of the other world to reality. This feeling was easily distinguished from the power exerted by Walton and others. Since Mulan was sure that he was definitely not attracted to the other world, then in There must be someone or something in the manor that caused this change.

Moreover, even if Mulan doesn't know what the normal situation should be, he can feel that the scope is definitely not small.

Once he leaves, everyone here will be in danger. Tell others that it is impossible to determine where the "source point" is, and once Mulan opens his mouth, this is not an ordinary chatting environment. Telling someone anything is likely to be tantamount to taking the initiative to contact him. In the world, become the anchor and goal.

"His, hoo, hoo, hoo"

Taking a deep breath, taking a deep breath, Mulan kept his brain fed and tried his best to stay calm. He should still have a chance to solve this crisis.

I didn't feel anything when I first came to the Earl's Manor, and I didn't feel anything unusual when I just left. So the change is likely to happen when I leave. It's very likely that someone came, and it's definitely possible that it was someone. brought something.

As long as you find "that person" and make him unconscious to temporarily solve the problem, or kill him, it should be possible to completely solve the problem!

If you really can't do anything, you can only run away by yourself.

"ding ding ding"

The old count inside the guardrail on the second floor tapped the cup with a spoon, attracting everyone's attention again, and the music stopped.

"Dear guests, now is the time for tonight's protagonists to appear, the two most precious gems in my life, Hathaway and Lily!"

The old count reached out to one side, and two beautiful girls slowly walked out of the central corridor on the second floor. One was wearing pink clothes and the other was wearing red clothes. One had slightly permed hair, and the other had long hair, but the two looked almost exactly the same. .

The two girls walked slowly together and reached the railing on the second floor.

"Happy birthday, my babies!"

The earl clapped slightly, and all the nobles below applauded and cheered.

"Happy birthday Lily and Hathaway!"

"Happy birthday to you two ladies!" "Have you two ladies chosen your dance partners?"

"I'm willing to help!"

Amid compliments and applause, the count held a girl by one hand and led the two girls slowly down the spiral staircase. The scene in the hall was lively.

Mulan also clapped along with the crowd, but he was obviously a little absent-minded. His eyes kept wandering around, and then he discovered the person who might be the target!

When everyone stopped what they were doing to congratulate the two earls' daughters, almost the only person who did not stop seemed extremely suspicious. That person Mulan had met before, and he was eating at the dining table at the moment.

Of course there were many nobles who noticed the man, but although they were a little dissatisfied, no one pointed a finger at him.

"The dance continues, so who is lucky enough to be my daughter's dance partner? Please don't miss this opportunity, young people, and have the courage to express yourself, hahahahaha!"

The old count let go of the two daughters' hands and laughed heartily. He hoped that both girls could have an unforgettable night today.

Music and dancing started again, and the young nobles in the hall who had no dancing partners or had just thrown away their dancing partners were all eager to try, even many older ones. Soon someone came forward to try, but the two earls' daughters just smiled and refused.

The two girls were very close to each other, holding a small fan in their hands, and chatting quietly while maintaining their appearance.

"Lily, haven't you been looking forward to it? Why didn't you accept the invitation?"

"I haven't decided yet, why don't you accept the invitation?" "I don't really want to dance."

Lily was very excited, but she didn't like anyone who came to invite her. Hathaway's smile was just polite. It wasn't that she didn't like dancing, but she didn't like the feeling of being a canary.

Mulan had no interest in inviting the earl's daughter to dance. He adjusted his breathing again and again, and slowly walked to a food display table and approached the noble man who was eating.

"Sir, when the Earl came down with the two beautiful ladies just now, you didn't seem to applaud at all. This doesn't seem to be what a gentleman should be like."

The corner of the man's mouth twitched, he chewed something in his mouth quickly, and looked up at Mulan.

"Oh, that seems to be true. I'm very hungry. Don't interrupt me eating."

The few nobles who were paying attention looked at the man with disdain, and Mulan also shook his head, chuckled and turned around.

"what are you laughing at?"

Mulan's heart moved. Sure enough, this man was mentally unstable and extremely sensitive. His laughter just now contained strong contempt, but ordinary people may not be able to feel it clearly, but this man felt some stimulation.

"It's okay. Since you're hungry, you might as well continue eating. After all, the count's food is indeed delicious."

As he spoke, Mulan pointed to the corner of his mouth and then tapped his collar, indicating that these areas were stained with oil stains and food scraps. The nobles nearby laughed, but the man had an angry look on his face.

"Which family are you from? Didn't your family teach you noble etiquette?"

"Compared to Your Excellency, I think my tutoring is pretty good."

Mulan responded with a smile, and then introduced himself to his family.

"I am Mullan, Mullan Jonest."

"Hahahaha, is it you? The guy who brags in the newspaper? Do you really think of yourself as a hero of Valentine? The Jonest family is not even a noble. It is from the baron family. Oh, the title is still inherited from your brother. of."

"snort."

Mulan snorted coldly and was about to turn around and leave, but his heart had already emotionally resonated with the state he imagined. He knew that the other party would definitely not end like this.

"I heard that you retired because you were involved in a military court. The failure of the empire's war was caused by you useless soldiers, especially guys like you who are greedy for life and afraid of death. It is simply a shame for the empire!"

The man laughed at Mulan, his voice became much louder due to his emotion, and he sprayed some crumbs and residue from his mouth.

Quite a few people around him were attracted by this voice, and many people frowned. Even those who agreed that the baron was indeed unworthy felt that the man had gone too far.

"Sir Bass, you've gone too far." "Yes."

Someone made a sound next to him, but Mulan, who had already taken a step or two away, stopped, then slowly turned around, with a sense of solemnity on his face, and walked step by step towards the person who had just spoken rudely.

This was such a sense of oppression that even the somewhat crazy man subconsciously took a step back.

Mulan walked closer to the man and spoke in a calm and loud voice, but it contained absolute anger and firm will, drowning out the music and the sounds of the people around him.

"Even though today is the birthday of the earl's daughter, you insulted my family and trampled on my honor of serving the empire, Sir Bess!"

The venue was already quiet. Mulan loudly read out the names he heard from the people around him. Then, he took off his gloves and threw them to the ground at the man's feet.

"Pick up the gloves, if you still think you are an imperial noble!"

The birthday party was taken over by the famous guest, and everyone's attention was focused here.

Ancient ritual duel!
