How do I break the team invitation from my old enemy?

What the imperial capital has is the unique prosperity, magnificence and majesty on the mainland.

The wide moat surrounds the majestic buildings, and gorgeous carriages drive on the straight and spacious streets. In the carriages are either wealthy businessmen with countless fortunes, or lords from all over the empire—or beautiful, Aristocratic ladies and young ladies with noble manners, gently shaking feather fans, and graceful or plump bodies.

Flowers are blooming on both sides of the street. Fountains and pools may have been built at the intersection of the two long streets. In the pool stood a statue of a goddess finely carved from moist white stone. Pedestrians passing by the roadside rarely saw rough and cheap clothes, and the air There seems to be melodious celebration songs and party dance music floating in the center all the time. Even in the busiest trading area, this pleasant atmosphere is not diminished.

Here, all the poor, or struggling to find their way out in the bustling and rich world, or buried deep in the shadow cast by tall buildings, will not show up easily.

What commensurate with the wealth of the imperial capital is its powerful force and strict city defense.

The patrolling soldiers wore brand-new silver armors, and the strong and tall horses under their crotches were as majestic as the white feathers on the helmets. Near the imperial city, you may still see the Royal Knights in black armor. Under the enthusiastic and admiring eyes of the young girls who pushed open the small window facing the street, they passed by in an orderly manner without changing their expressions, bringing a rhythmic sound of horseshoes.

The imperial capital is like a huge beast with shiny fur and tight muscles, sitting on the chest of the vast empire, with a strong heartbeat and long breath.

However, although poverty has disappeared here for a long time, the ranks and ranks of the imperial capital are stricter than all other cities and towns.

It is true that the common people have no worries about food and clothing, the wealthy businessmen have wealth, and the ministers have high positions and powers. However, the most high-ranking people in the imperial capital, except for the royal family, are always only those few rich and powerful hereditary nobles.

In terms of money, they control the business routes extending in all directions and run countless businesses. Even if the current Patriarch lacks brains and vision, and does not have effective subordinates to make suggestions, relying on the harvests offered in the territory every year can still make people happy. The whole family maintains a luxurious life.

In terms of power, the hereditary aristocrats all have a long history and are deeply rooted, not to mention the inextricable connections with the royal family and other aristocrats—just by looking at the familiar-sounding surnames of the core ministers and generals, you can tell what kind of resources they have up.

Of course, in addition to these, good education, elegant manners, strict etiquette, and pride from the heart are also essential.

If someone who has just arrived in the imperial capital asks on the street which of these nobles is second to none, they will definitely get this result: most people will answer without hesitation - of course it is Tidis who lives in the east of the imperial capital The Duke and his family!

The badges of nobility are mostly totems of flowers or animals with special meanings, exquisite and small, such as the lily of the valley of the Earl Ferdinand's family, the nightingale of the Marquis of Lavis's family... Only the family coat of arms of the Duke of Didis has a special pattern , is a long sword wrapped in flames - this is the supreme glory, symbolizing the feats of the ancestors of the Thedis family following the first emperor to expand the territory of the empire.

The descendants of the Didis family have also embarked on this path, and have been named hereditary dukes for their meritorious service. The patriarchs of the past dynasties not only hold heavy soldiers, but also control vital arms and mineral transactions. They have an in-law relationship with the royal family in their genealogy. , and also a fiefdom in the rich and fertile Landas Plain, all kinds of power and wealth make this family with a long history worthy of being the first family of the imperial capital.

But now, the eldest son of the first family, Lin Vitidis, is in a bad situation.

When the carriage passes through the wide and fortified city gate, as usual, the owner must prove his identity before being put into the city.

Two rows of soldiers with thick silver armor stood at the gate of the city, checking the passing carriages and pedestrians.

Lin Wei thought he was familiar with the various rules of the imperial capital, so when he saw that there were many more soldiers at the gate of the city than before, he thought it was the old emperor who had sent more troops to defend the city, and didn't think much about it.

So when he passed the city gate, he raised a corner of the car curtain as usual, and only exposed his left hand holding the family emblem out of the window.

According to common sense, a magnificent carriage, exquisite bodywork and curtains, unmistakable Thedis family medals - and well-maintained hands belonging to nobles, as long as the guards see it, they will immediately say nothing Letting the carriage into the city may also include a uniform salute.

Unexpectedly, the captain of the guard said: "My lord, please tell me your identity."

Putting such words on nobles can almost be said to be offensive!

However, Lin Wei spent most of his previous life in the legion, and in this life he entered a magic academy where the status of nobility is worthless. He didn't care much about the so-called "dignity of nobility", and said: "Linwei Didis, Didi son of the Duke of St.

"Master Tidis," the captain of the guard said in a more polite voice, "During this period of time, the situation in the imperial capital is special. We need to check the identities of everyone entering and leaving the imperial capital. Please allow us to check your carriage and confirm the identity of other people in the carriage. information."

"This is against the rules," Lin Wei asked, "Do you have any orders?"

"That's right, Master Tidis," said the captain of the guard, "We have a warrant signed by His Majesty the Emperor himself."

What happened in the imperial capital?Are the guards serious?

Lin Wei looked at the magicians in the carriage, not knowing what to do.

He spoke quickly, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a way for you to disappear?"

"...Huh?" Heidi was confused.

Fortunately, Daniel was very clever, and he asked Lin Wei a lot of things along the way. He knew that the mainland, especially the royal family, was not very friendly to magicians, and they could not reveal their identities, which might cause trouble.

"There is a way." Daniel said, with a bottle of green potion in his hand, and when he opened the bottle, the potion gave off an indescribably unpleasant smell.

How unpleasant is the smell—it is so strong that people even want to close their eyes involuntarily, lest their fragile eyes will be smothered by this thing!

But at this time, Lin Wei had no time to ridicule the strange taste of the potion, and only heard Daniel say: "This is the invisibility potion made by my teacher."

As he spoke, he neatly dripped a few drops on everyone except Lin Wei, and almost instantly, the three miraculously disappeared.

At the last moment before disappearing, Daniel proudly gestured to Lin Wei.

Lin Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

It took only a short while from the moment he asked until the three of them disappeared. At this time, the guard had checked the pass of the driver who drove the carriage for them from the port of Siren Bay, and said to Lin Wei: "Please open the car door."

Lin Wei pushed open the carriage door from the inside.

Immediately, a strong, indescribable, weird, and unpleasant smell penetrated into the captain's straight nose, making him sneeze firmly!

Lin Wei stared blankly at the captain of the guard: "I'm the only one here."

The carriage is spacious and comfortable, and at a glance, there is no place to hide.

The captain of the guard looked a little uncomfortable, barely endured the smell, and faithfully performed his duty of guarding the city: "Is there anything special in your carriage?"

"Some special products in the sea," Lin Wei said to the captain of the guard, his tone seemed a little angry, "there is no need to show it to you."

"No, no need." The captain of the guard said sincerely: "Please forgive our offense, now you can enter the city."

After all, the captain of the guard immediately returned to the place where he was standing, as if he was escaping from something terrible.

Lin Wei closed the carriage door, and the carriage started driving again.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Daniel, why is there such a big smell!"

"It's not my fault!" Daniel's voice sounded from the empty carriage, "My teacher firmly believes that the effect of invisibility potion is the best when powdered with dragon feces is added! Except for our academy, there is no other place where you can find the rare potion. Where's the dragon dung!"

Lin Wei had nothing to say - he could only blame Old Ansair's two dragons for this matter.

It seems that the excuse I just made up is really correct, this is indeed a "special product in the sea".

He has every reason to believe that as soon as the time for changing defenses comes, the captain of the guard will be eager to return home and tell his wife and children that the son of the Didis family returned to the imperial capital alone without any servants or guards. —and in a stinking carriage!

Anecdotes about nobles spread the fastest, and it won't be long before this matter will spread, and maybe it will be fueled by those idle ladies!

When the young Duke Linwei returned to the imperial capital after a year's absence, it was fine if he didn't put on a good show. As soon as he entered the city gate, he lost a big man.

He asked Daniel weakly: "Then when can you recover?"

"Well... I can't say for sure, the potion with dragon dung can't be cracked by other potions," Daniel said lazily, as if he was very proud of the potion with remarkable effects created by his teacher: "Ordinary potions, etc. Just wait for a while, but it’s really good for potions, so maybe you have to wait for a while.”

"Don't mention that nasty dragon dung anymore!" Lin Wei leaned helplessly towards the soft back of the carriage, but he didn't expect to touch something on his side... It seemed to be something of his body?

That's right, the invisibility potion can make people invisible, but it can't make people disappear out of thin air.

And the one sitting next to him is Juan Yu?

Lin Wei curiously stretched out his hand to touch the location of the sentence next to him. It is a bit strange that there is nothing in front of his eyes, but his hand feels real.

Lin Wei's hand touched the soft and smooth straight hair, and a little further up, it seemed to be the position of the pinna.

Juan Yu's body stiffened for a moment when his hand touched the pinna - Lin Wei immediately felt his wrist being held, and then forcibly sent back to where it should be.

It was only then that Lin Wei realized that his actions on the spur of the moment were a bit strange, and he made an excuse to cover up with a dry smile: "You guys are so scary... I don't feel at ease if I don't know it."

Juanyu didn't respond, but when he heard these words, the left hand that was holding Lin Wei's wrist just now and was about to withdraw did not move.

Although invisible, the touch on the wrist is very real.

Lin Wei suddenly felt a little hot on his cheeks.
