December 30, 1379, Medland Glory Calendar.

Early in the morning, more than twenty giant war airships were circling around Fort Heidra.

The soldiers carried large wooden poles and sprinkled handfuls of gray-white crystalline medicine powder into the thick clouds.

It was amazing that the thick clouds above Fort Heidra disappeared like this.

The brilliant sunshine sprinkled down and melted the ice and snow in the city.

The clergy in robes lined up in neat rows and came out from St. Cloud's Cathedral and St. Maya Cathedral. They walked through the streets and alleys and recited blessing scriptures.

Each clergy is surrounded by two cleanly dressed and smart and cute children.

They held donation boxes made of oak and osmanthus, and followed the team with a bright smile.

Citizens of Heidra Fort walked out of their homes in the rare and good weather.

When they meet these clergy, they will walk up with a smile, take out coins, recite the holy name of Mu or Muteste, and put the coins into the donation box.

Gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins are 'jingling'.

The sound of paper money being put into the donation box is 'rustling' and it sounds quite cute.

There were also wealthy rich men who stuffed straight checks into the donation box. The checks fell into the donation box and made a 'da' sound. The clergy led the team shouted loudly with bright smiles and bright smiles. "You are blessed, noble master!"

It passed a little by little at noon.

Several specially made four-wheeled carriages were surrounded by a group of knights and walked slowly west along Everglades Street.

In the first carriage, Hessen accompanied Tifa and Weima.

On the second carriage, Joe, who was dressed in a full army dress and was dressed smoothly, was sitting in the carriage with a smile, looking out through the window glass.

Wearing a long crow-green silk dress, a bun with a small thorn flower on it, and an antique-grade corsage on her chest. Old Lady Mary, who is said to be a heirloom of her grandmother, was sitting next to Joe with a smile, looking up and down at Ferdinand opposite her.

Ferdinand, who is ungrateful and sloppy, is dressed very neatly today.

A set of dignified, solemn, conservative and stereotyped Derren Empire traditional court dresses were worn on Ferdinand, paired with more than twenty shining medals and badges on his chest, which also highlighted his wise and powerful spirit.

However, today Ferdinand sat in the seat with his waist straight, his whole body was tight and his face was stiff, just like a lonely and helpless rabbit thrown into a tiger cage, and was staring at by a colorful tigress.

Even cold sweat continued to seep out from his forehead.

There was a dull and stiff smile on his face, and he had maintained this smile for a quarter of an hour.

Ferdinand has maintained this smile since Old Lady Mary appeared in the Palace of Apophis and was invited by Joe to board the same carriage as Ferdinand.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Joe retracted his gaze and greeted Ferdinand, who was stiff all over.

"Oh, no, I'm just happy." Ferdinand coughed softly: "I... haven't attended the New Year's Celebration at Hydra Palace for many years."

Old Mrs. Mary, who was beside her, also coughed lightly: "Ah, so do I."

Joe suddenly widened his eyes, and he looked at Old Lady Mary in horror: "Have you been to Hydra Palace? Have you attended the New Year celebration there?"

Old Mrs. Mary raised her head and smiled proudly: "Oh, when I was young, I was a cook at Hydra Palace for a while. Ah, do you know, His Highness Mata XIII, he likes the trout soup I stewed the most."

Ferdinand closed his eyes hard.

Joe looked at Old Lady Mary in surprise: "No wonder you have such a good craftsmanship. It turns out that you have been a chef in Heidra Fort!"

Old Mrs. Mary shrugged: "But, then... forget it, forget it, let's not talk."

She opened the car window and a cold wind blew in. She poked her head out of the car window and looked at the Hydra Palace not far away: "The young men did a good job. Today's Hydra Palace looks particularly beautiful. Is it because today's mood is particularly good? I feel that today's Hydra Palace is much more beautiful than you have seen on weekdays."

Joe also came over, put his hand on Old Lady Mary's shoulder and looked towards Hydra Palace.

"Wow!" Qiao opened his mouth to exclaim.

Ferdinand opened his eyes, and his dull smile changed a little more.

He glanced at Joe meaningfully - Old Mrs. Mary was in a very good mood today? Oh, oh, it was a hell.

Old Mrs. Mary turned her head slightly and stared at Ferdinand with a deep look.

The meaningful strange expression on Ferdinand's face suddenly shattered, and the folds on his face quickly stretched out, blooming, and quickly transformed into an extremely bright smile.

Qiao stared at Hydra Palace with wide eyes.

Today's Hydra Palace is indeed different from the past.

The thick palace walls made of huge stones were cleaned, and every stone and every crack shone brightly in the sun.

On the high city wall, a heavy metal shield is hung on the entrance of each city wall.

On the shield with a strong upper and sharp lower lower, there is a hyde relief with a hideous shape.

The Hydra opened its mouth and exposed its sharp fangs. The ruby-laid snake eyes reflected a scarlet fire in the sun, which were clearly visible several miles away.

Below each shield, an iron-gray curtain was hanging.

The long curtain with swallowtails fell from the top of the wall to the bottom of the palace wall, almost touching the ground.

The edge of the thick curtain is a circle of brilliant thorn patterns, and the middle is also a hideous Hydra badge. The huge Hydra badge is surrounded by a line of thin blood-colored ancient characters—

‘Whether the Hydra’s eyes reach is the territory of Delun’!

This is the slogan shouted to the founding emperor of the Delun Empire after getting drunk and dribbled wildly, and said to his ministers.

The second emperor of the Delun Empire directly carved his father's words on the imperial seal of the empire and used them in official documents everywhere, and even on many diplomatic documents, this sentence appeared many times.

This sentence also caused many border conflicts between the Delun Empire and its neighboring countries.

But the Deron Empire didn't care.

Today is a celebration banquet to welcome the New Year. This domineering and arrogant rhetoric after drinking is hung on the palace wall of Hydra Palace.

The gorgeous sunshine shines on the iron-gray curtain, and this circle of blood-colored words flashes with tremendous blood in the sunlight.

The southern gate of Hydra Palace was opened, and a team of heavy armored court knights lined up on both sides of the palace gate.

Dozens of court officials were wearing dresses and stood at the palace gate, greeting the arrival of guests with a smile.

A series of beautifully decorated four-wheeled carriages gathered from around Hydera Fort surrounded by the brigade's entourage. The gorgeously dressed officials walked off the carriage arrogantly, and with a bit of pride and arrogance, they handed invitations to the palace officials at the gate of the palace.

Amid the respectful greetings, these nobles, led by the palace officials, walked slowly into the Hydra Palace with steady steps.

Their entourage and guards followed a fork under the palace wall and walked around the rear of Hydra Palace, which was specially opened for them.

Qiao and his group's carriage stopped at the palace gate.

The car door opened, and Ferdinand took the lead and walked off the carriage with a bright smile.

Merlin, the chief minister of the court in the Delun Empire, had already waited at the palace gate with more than a dozen court officials. Seeing Ferdinand get off the carriage, Merlin quietly walked up and bowed to Ferdinand.

"Your Highness, you..."

Meilin's face suddenly twitched, and then he swallowed and spitted with great difficulty, and his huge Adam's apple rose and fell violently.

"Okay, Merlin, don't worry about me. I'm familiar with this kind of small scene. I know what I should do." Ferdinand said to Merlin very seriously: "Ah, Hessen, Joe, and Tifa, Weima, they are not familiar with the Hydra Palace. Send a few shrewd guys to do a good job."

"By the way, this Mrs. Mary, she used to be the cook of the Hydra Palace. Do you still have the impression?"

"She is the guest of worship invited by Joe. Ha, okay, provide good service, dear Merlin... don't worry about me, ah, I saw a few old friends, and I'm over now."

"Don't worry, I won't run around today, and I can't run away, right?"

Ferdinand sighed and shrugged.

Then he bowed deeply to Old Lady Mary and then jumped up like a spring, spread his legs and ran towards an old man who had just walked off the carriage not far away.

"Hey, old guy, how are you doing recently? One day, let's form another game?"

Ten Hydra Secret Guards quickly followed Ferdinand!

Today, Ferdinand is still charged with "collusion with heresy and robbing Royal Bank". He is still the "suspect". In any case, he cannot let him go around.

Not to mention, in Heidra Fort, how many people want to dig something out of Ferdinand now.

Merlin smiled brightly, and he nodded to the old lady Mary: "Madam Mary? Oh, I remember you... Of course, today, I'm glad you were able to come to Hydra Palace. Uh, are you a guest invited by Joe?"

Old Mrs. Mary smiled happily, and she nodded vigorously.

Joe patted his belly and smiled at Merlin, "Ah, today is our good day, we are going to be awarded the title, aren't we? But I'm not familiar with the place in Heidra Fort and don't even have many friends. My grandmother is my only friend, so of course I can only invite her!"

Merlin continued to smile brightly.

He turned around, glanced at a group of smart and capable confidant subordinates behind him, shook his head, then turned to Hesen, and continued to smile extremely brightly: "Then, Lord Hesen, please follow me. Here, a special lounge is arranged for you."
