Chapter 248

The gifts given by aristocrats amounted to a small hill. Afterwards the began to chat with each other. Such a grand banquet was a rare party and many tried to communicate with other aristocrats for interpersonal relationships.

Time when by.

The banquet was half-way gone when someone suddenly trotted over and whispered something to Kerry’s ear.

Kerry was stunned at man’s words. However his face turned happy and a bit excited. He looked at Dean and whispered.: “Two masters have come. I’m going to meet them.” He immediately rushed towards the door.

Dudian was slightly surprised at the moment. According to Kerry the Temple wouldn’t easily disturb master architects. If it was normal times then the Temple would invite masters to ‘epoch’ medal awarding ceremony but because of special circumstances they haven’t invited anyone. Dean didn’t expect that masters would voluntarily come to the party.

The castle’s door was pushed open and two old men went in as they were led by Kerry. They were wearing exquisite robes meant for master architects. Behind them two middle-aged man and one middle-aged woman went in. The design, style and color of their clothing was different from the ones old men wore. But Dudian knew that they were dressed in robes meant for senior architects.

The aristocrats close to the door suppressed their voices and exclaimed in surprise the moment they saw the new guests.

The appearance of guests quickly spread through whispers to Rudolph, Old Fulin and other nobles’ ears. Everyone looked back as there was surprise on their faces. The aristocrats who were sitting on the sofas and resting stood up to show respect to the newcomer guests.

Dudian felt the weight, charm and value of the ‘Temple of Elements’ as he saw the reaction of many aristocrats. He quickly went over to greet the masters. Both old men were smiling. There was wisdom and experience reflected in their eyes. They were dressed plains and at the edges there was a bit of dust. It seems they were more concentrated on research rather than social life.

“Greetings masters.” Dudian went up to them.

The old man on the left slightly smiled.: “You are the creator of the new textile machine. Huh. You got the ‘epoch’ medal before you joined the ‘Temple of Elements’. You are the second one with such a feat. Hogan was awarded with an ‘epoch’ medal 50 years ago because of inventing ‘Hogan crossbow’. His weapon dominated the civil war.”

“Thank you.”

The old man on the right laughed.: “We have just learned the news about the banquet. We took the liberty to disturb you so please don’t take offense.”

Dudian saw that he was polite so he replied.: “It is my honor that two masters are willing to attend the banquet. It’s my fault that I couldn’t greet both masters at the door as I didn’t expect for you to come. Please enjoy yourselves.”

“Get us two chairs so that we can sit and rest.” The old man on the left smiled and said to Kerry.

Kerry immediately replied.: “Of course, get two chairs for both masters.” He waved to the servants to immediately act.

The old man on the right nodded and turned towards the three behind them.: “You should chat with Mr Dean. Although he is younger than you but he isn’t less knowledgable than you.”

“Yes teacher.”

“Yes.”

The two middle-aged man and the woman immediate replied with a respectful attitude.

The aristocrats surrounding them couldn’t help but look at Dudian. They didn’t think that a juvenile who has join the Temple for few days could get such high evaluation from two masters. Some of them regretted that the gifts that they give to Dudian wasn’t that expensive.

Rudolph’s eyes were gloomy. His fingers applied a bit more force and tightly held the wine glass in his hand.

Dudian greeted the students of masters after both of them left.

“Hello, my name is Momo.” One of the middle-aged men exposed a shy smile.: “It’s our first meeting but I haven’t brought you anything. I’m sorry for that but when we are back at the Temple if you lack any material I can get for you. But it shouldn’t be too expensive.” His face reddened.

Dudian didn’t think that the person who was so old would act like a shy boy.: “Thank you very much! If I face problems through my experiments then I will look for your advices.”

“I would like to discuss some topics too.” Momo happily replied.

There was a trace of helplessness and disdain in the other middle-aged man’s eyes. He looked at Dudian.: “Hello, my name is Jin. I major in military equipment and engineering. I heard that you are still a hunter. In the future if you need equipment then I can give you several sets for free of charge. I have improved bows and arrows of my own.”

Dudian touched his nose.: “I will trouble you in the future.”

“Mr Dean.” The middle-aged woman called out.

The woman looked at Dudian and introduced herself.: “My name is Kim. Like you I’m studying on experiments that focus on civil issues. Your new textile machine has inspired me a lot. Thank you very much!” She bent on ceremony.

Such a move made many aristocrats gasp. They fancied Dudian’s new textile machine because of the monetary value and benefits it had brought. They didn’t think that such an invention would make even a senior architect to pay tribute in such a manner!

Dudian was quite surprised. However he had grown up in a family of scientists. He had seen lots of scientists and researchers. Normally they would be very excited when they saw extraordinary researchs. Dudian was aware of the significance of the new textile machine more than anyone. It would open a new era. The era of steam machines would be steps away. Moreover humanity’s conquest of the earth would begin from here on. It was an important starting point for humanity.

Senior architects were able to understand the significant important of the new textile machines.

“No need for that…” Although Dudian was surprised but his hands fastly hel up her and gently made her to stand.

Kim saw Dudian’s move and nodded slightly.: “Let’s talk on the side.”

All of them nodded in affirmation and went towards the edge of hall and found a sofa to sit down.

The trio understood that Dudian wasn’t aware of basic knowledge of the elements. However they found out that Dudian wasn’t ignorant either. He had his unique insights. Moreover Dudian was confident and convincing in his speech.

The conversation touched more in-depth subjects as four of them talked about from one topic to the other. Unknowningly they had come to talk about high-level experiments.
