People got out of the car and kept looking into the distance.
There were many holy priests in black robes standing there.
The ambassador winked at the driver.
The driver walked forward, and after a while, came back.
"The Holy Cult was investigating suspicious persons and found several officers of the Revolutionary Army."
"Caught?" asked the ambassador.
"Already killed by the saints."
Several people fell silent.
After a while, the road was opened and vehicles began to pass through the inspection checkpoint one after another.
The ambassador waved his hand, and everyone got into the car and moved forward with the traffic.
The traffic stopped and stopped, and gunshots and shouts were heard from a distance from time to time.
Whenever this happens, the car will stop again.
The ambassador sighed and murmured: "It seems that there are quite a few forces who want to cause sabotage at the banquet."
"Has the situation in the Holy Kingdom reached this level of chaos?" Gu Qingshan asked.
"There are three forces inside that are seizing power, and Fuxi is secretly using his power outside. Murderous ghosts and sea beasts are wreaking havoc everywhere but no one can stop them," the ambassador said.
"The Holy Kingdom is a hell on earth right now," another official interjected.
Although Gu Qingshan had known this for a long time, he still couldn't help but sigh after hearing this.
In the carriage, the expressions of several people turned gloomy.
Finally, Gu Qingshan and his car reached the inspection checkpoint.
I heard someone outside shouting: "Report, this is the federal embassy's car."
"The diplomatic mission...is released." A firm voice said.
Several people looked outside.
I saw the Crusaders standing on both sides of the road.
The tall and powerful man, wearing a white robe, crossed his arms and kept looking at the car.
Saint Ivan.
He narrowed his eyes and leaned forward slightly, looking like a ferocious beast ready to hunt its prey.
Gu Qingshan glanced at him through the car window.
"Huh?" The saint immediately sensed it.
He knocked on the car window.
Gu Qingshan pressed down the car window and asked: "What's the matter?"
The Saint looked at the military uniform on his body, then at the Medal of Freedom, and said, "I said what's going on, it turned out to be a federal officer."
"What are you doing?" Gu Qingshan said calmly.
There was a cruel look in Saint's eyes, and he said: "I haven't fought against a senior federal officer yet, are you willing to compete with me?"
In the car, several people looked nervous.
Gu Qingshan laughed and said: "You are a saint, right? You stopped my car just because you wanted to compete with me?"
He seemed very interested: "Just in time, I have long wanted to learn the chosen skills of your holy religion."
He opened the car door and walked out.
Saint Ivan watched him closely and looked disappointed when he saw his reaction.
Gu Qingshan was dragged back by the ambassador.
The ambassador stuck his head out and said coldly to the pilgrim: "Are you sure you want to fight our officers? In a place like this?"
The diplomatic corps was invited to a banquet as guests, and it was already very rude to be stopped on the street. Now, the host actually sent his subordinates to provoke a fight on the roadside in public - if this really happened , will become a big joke in the diplomatic history of the Holy Kingdom.
This would be a humiliation to the entire country of the Free Federation, with unpredictable consequences.
Therefore, even though the ambassador was just an ordinary person, Saint Ivan did not dare to accept these words.
The saint took a step back, not bothering to look at Gu Qingshan anymore. He waved his hand and said, "Let them pass."
The barricades were quickly removed.
A few miles after the car drove out, an official was about to speak when Gu Qingshan waved his hand and pointed to his ear.
Those who can do diplomatic work abroad are all people with a thorough mind.
When the man saw Gu Qingshan's actions, he immediately shut his mouth.
After a long time, until the car stopped at the entrance of the manor, Gu Qingshan said: "According to the agreement, I will take care of the dancing. You listen to the goddess."
Several people understood it as soon as they heard it and got out of the car silently.
Immediately, a concierge came over and drove the car away. Immediately afterwards, a man who looked like a butler came over, politely greeted several people, and led them into the lobby.
This is a grand banquet.
Celebrities, state dignitaries, and guests from all over the world gathered here.
Everyone was led to the seats arranged in advance and sat down, waiting for the dinner to begin.
It is not convenient to move at this time, because any vacant seat will attract the attention of the concierge serving the banquet.
Gu Qingshan wanted to go to the room on the third floor to find the potion formula, but he had to wait until after the dinner to find the opportunity.
The ambassador sat in the first row, sitting with the diplomatic envoys of the Fuxi Empire.
As a military attache, Gu Qingshan was placed in the third row.
Those sitting here are all nobles of the Holy Kingdom who hold minor official positions or whose status is not too high.
People here don't have any tasks, they don't need to pay too much attention to their words, and their expressions are relatively relaxed.
Two military attachés from the Fuxi Empire were very interested in Gu Qingshan and took the initiative to talk to him.
Gu Qingshan didn't care. In his previous life, he was more familiar with the Fuxi Empire than the Federation, and he got along with the two military attachés in just a few words.
Not long after, an elegant piano sound sounded.
The sound of the piano was melodious, but it was far away, and the volume was neither high nor low, just enough not to affect people's low-pitched conversations.
At this time, the host of the banquet, Madame Pontou, came.
She is indeed very charming, smiling and looking forward to every word and every move she makes, and she behaves charmingly with her smokey eyes.
As soon as she arrived, several important guests stood up and greeted her with smiles.
After a while of greetings, she sat in the middle of the first row of the banquet. On her left sat a prince from the Fuxi Empire, and on her right sat the tall and mighty white-robed saint that Gu Qingshan had seen earlier.
"Are you looking at Ivan?" The military attache of the Fuxi Empire noticed Gu Qingshan's gaze.
"Yes, it is difficult for saints of the Holy Religion not to attract attention." Gu Qingshan said.
"Their fighting power is too strong, and they are not afraid of death at all. They are really difficult to deal with." Military Attaché Fuxi smacked his lips and said.
By this time Madame Pontou's speech had ended.
The chatter in the hall ended one after another, and plates of dishes were served.
The dinner party officially started.
By this time, Gu Qingshan had no choice but to sit down and finish the meal.
This was the most sumptuous dinner he had ever had since the end of the world.
Sand fish cooked in white wine and garnished with oysters, shrimps and other seafood. Each guest is provided with a roasted partridge, smoke-roasted chicken, roast beef, potato cubes, citrus sorbet, fresh white rolls with sweet cream, jams, jelly and candied fruits, fancy cakes and hemispheres of ice cream.
There were several kinds of wine, the ladies drank champagne and wine, and the men drank various mellow and strong distilled spirits.
Gu Qingshan picked out a bottle of wine, and a waiter came up behind him to help open the wine and fill it up for him.
This wine pours out clear and transparent, of excellent quality, and tastes very refreshing.
Gu Qingshan couldn't help but feel a little emotional while eating and drinking.
How many ordinary people are struggling on the edge of life and death, but here, they are still enjoying themselves according to the standards of the peaceful era.
People chatted in low voices while eating, and laughed softly from time to time.
With such a dinner, even the pickiest noble would have nothing to find fault with in the current period.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal, even Gu Qingshan, who came here for other things, was also satisfied with the meal.
Next comes the dance.
At the beginning, there was some softer music to help people adapt to the atmosphere and soothe their emotions.
The ambassador took a few people around him and prepared to leave quietly.
Gu Qingshan stood up, politely asked where the bathroom was, got up and left.
When he came to the bathroom, Gu Qingshan closed the partition door, patted the storage bag, and took out the portable micro jumper.
"Liao Xing, let's get to work," he said.
"Here we are, um, the distance is good and there will be no deviation. The space jump will take about thirty seconds. Please wait." Liao Xing's voice came from the jumper.
Thirty seconds flies by.
"Enter the original location, lock the destination, and start the jump." Liao Xingdao.
Gu Qingshan looked down and saw that the jumper had started working.
The next second, he disappeared together with his portable micro-jump.
