If you want to say that the most idle person in the group, except for himself, is the lich. Even the two apprentices are asked by dwarves or Uzov to help from time to time, and of course they are paid. As for Augustus, as a qualified home dragon, he never goes out.
So seeing that no one was cheering, Fen asked consciously: "How about it, do you need me to help you out?"
"Well, I won't fight this time. Can you restrain yourself from hitting anyone?"
"The best I can do is refrain from killing people."
For the lich who spoke very honestly, someone had no choice but to say: "Well, if you can please just beat the person half to death, okay?"
"Then three-quarters will die."
"Is there any bargaining for this kind of thing? Also, what's the point of three-quarters dying?"
"Then tell me, how can I beat him half to death?"
The person who was reprimanded was immediately speechless. He touched his nose and silently ate the food in his bowl. However, the candidates for the banquet were determined by the Lich. Lin, as the protagonist, Fen, who is about to go to a wealthy family, and two girls who pretend to be magic apprentices, can be regarded as the entire lineup of the magic system.
As for having to wait five days, after all, the masters are not nobles who have enough to eat and nothing to do. Everyone is immersed in their own research. Even if they are not too busy, they are not free all the time. It is not that simple to find that so many big bosses are available, or that the things scheduled to be busy are small things that can be postponed.
The invitation to the magician's banquet was submitted five days ago, which can be considered very fast. Otherwise, it would be considered normal operation to hold a banquet of this scale and send invitations to all parties one or two months in advance. However, judging from the unusual speed, one can probably guess that the people holding this banquet were a little anxious.
However, in these five days, as if someone couldn't wait, there were many small actions around someone.
But with the attitude that the matter was none of his business, Lin ignored it if he could, and politely refused if he couldn't. Including those spying figures who appear from time to time outside the walls of the new residence in the Holy City; or the strangers who come to chat with him inexplicably in the academy.
On the day of the banquet, early in the morning, Lin saw a rare sight. Augustus had restored his original dragon body, with his belly open, lying in the courtyard basking in the sun. If you hadn't seen that the belly was still rising and falling, you would have thought that the dragon had a belly roll and was in trouble.
Lin came to Augustus's dragon head, which was larger than his whole body, and asked the imageless black dragon, sticking out its tongue and gasping for air. "Why do you look so unsightly, lying down and basking in the sun?"
Augustus said: "Last night, I suddenly had a lot of late-night snacks. After eating, I let the sun bask in my belly. This is a treatment that you cannot enjoy in underground life."
"I'm full." Does this mean someone invaded in the middle of the night? All fed to the dragon. Should this be said to be cruel? Or a worthy death?
never mind. I have always insisted on not killing, just because I am afraid of trouble, and it is not that I have any compassion for others. Augustus had eaten everything. How could he come out and resurrect the lich?
Because they were going to a dinner party, the three women worked hard for several days on how to dress up. They would like to sew their own clothes, but they can't find any good fabrics that they like. Of course, it’s also possible that the store’s level is not good enough, or that the other party simply doesn’t want to come up with good stuff. In this regard, they complained a lot when they came back.
In the end, I found the store recommended by the original owner of the Flame Red Lips Store, the magician Shao Erhu. The stuff inside is pretty high-end, but it’s extremely expensive and not the kind of stuff that would wow anyone. From the perspective of the three women, it was just make do.
In addition, a carriage must be rented, otherwise someone can use flash magic to reach the destination by himself, and the two apprentices will have to walk hard on their feet. You can borrow the carriage from the great magician Kaban Bai, but someone is too lazy to owe a favor for such a trivial matter. Anyway, no matter where the carriage comes from, it looks bad in his eyes. Without shock absorbers, all vehicles are just rubbish.
Since you already have the engine, are you considering building a car? Someone sitting in the carriage was jolted until his butt hurt. He was thinking wildly and trying to divert his attention.
The banquet was held at the home of Master Fa, who had a noble background in the Gwana Empire. There are many people with this background in the holy city of Estali. After all, nobles have money and power, and as long as their children have magical talents, it is easy to cultivate a magician. And with strength, status will also increase, which can be regarded as mutually reinforcing benefits.
And people with this kind of background, of course, behave in a noble manner. Just like this, in the core area of the Holy City, that is, in the area close to the five-story magic saint-level magic tower, it is impossible to build a mansion that occupies a large area. It is not something ordinary people would do. . Read the book
The carriage stopped just before the gate. There were blazing bonfires on both sides, and what looked like a guard of honor rather than mighty knights stood there. They stopped the carriage without heraldry, of course to check whether the passengers were qualified to enter. Lin also showed the group of knights the exquisite invitation sent by the white owl as the messenger.
For a magician's banquet of this level, the invitation is also a type of magic prop. It will emit a specific power that corresponds to the token in the hands of the banquet host, so that the overly complicated inspection process can be omitted. Invitations are basically impossible to forge, and no one would try to forge such a thing.
The knight who stepped forward, the crystal ball in his hand gave off a faint yellow light after Lin took out the invitation. The knights standing guard on both sides saluted in unison and opened the door at the entrance of the mansion.
The carriage was guided to a stop near the perimeter. Not far away, the courtyard near the main residence serves as one of the venues for open-air banquets. There are a large number of magic lights hung high on pillars. Under the soft light, the men and women who had gathered in the courtyard were holding wine glasses in their hands. Some of them were holding a plate of food and were eating and drinking while talking and laughing.
Masters are still very practical. It is foolish to go to a banquet without having enough to eat.
But looking at the banquet format of this open-air buffet, someone had the intuition that this was the product of which time travel predecessor? At least outside the Holy City, there is no banquet in this style.
When new guests arrived, naturally the waiters who were entertaining at the banquet came and took the two apprentices to the apprentice's venue. The two magicians served a glass of white wine and roughly explained the location of the venue, such as where to eat and drink.
The reason why banquet venue levels are divided according to levels is because people of different levels speak different languages.
For example, if a magic apprentice complained about the inability to perform apprentice-level magic in a circle full of magicians, he would probably only get a pair of blank looks; but if he complained like this in a circle of fellow apprentices, It’s sure to resonate a lot. If you insist on bringing the two parties together, who do you want to torture, so it is better to separate.
With Fen's glamor and charm, when she appeared on such an occasion, a group of suitors soon appeared. All kinds of gorgeous words of praise and words of love at first sight were poured out without hesitation. A meal of drunken soup seemed to have really made the lich dizzy.
In particular, there are some students in her life course, who introduce promising young people in the family and serve as flankers for these younger generations. Of course, it was another gorgeous rhetoric that exalted the beauty of a certain lich to the sky, as if the other women in the banquet were eclipsed.
The ignored and inconspicuous person was naturally pushed aside and hid on the edge of the banquet, eating all kinds of delicious food alone. The dishes at these banquets are made of the highest quality ingredients and are cooked by excellent chefs. Whether they are cold dishes or hot dishes, they are impeccable.
As for whether it rains or my mother wants to get married, of course that's up to her. Otherwise what else can be done.
"Cui Puwu..." Someone approached and someone spoke to him. The problem was that someone suddenly left the place in a flash! Only the others were left looking at each other.
Of course, the banquet hosted by a magician with a noble background will not only consist of eating and drinking, but also some entertainment programs. In a corner of the banquet venue, there were five small string orchestras consisting of large and medium-sized violins, playing soft music.
This kind of experience makes someone feel fresh. It's not that these five musicians are better than those on Earth, it's that they dare to go around and sing the songs of the bards who dared to take a turtledove harp after hearing it in the Lost Land too many times. It's quite surprising to hear serious string music.
The music is quite melodious, but not as high as Earth's classical music. It's pretty good as background music for a banquet. At least these musicians, who are about a certain age, are not green novices. The typhoon is quite stable, and the natural music will be moving.
In addition to music, of course there are also people who sing. However, listening to the high-pitched falsetto, someone next to me was fascinated by it, but someone else didn't feel it at all. I can only say that the vocal music is not to the taste of a certain time traveler.
On the contrary, the singer is a scantily clad woman, and her movements are alluring. There are many women like her at the banquet. And they are not magicians, at least they don't wear Master's signature shawls.
These women look very much like the courtesans who were specially hired to liven up the atmosphere of the banquet when they participated in the banquet of the nobles in Wulian City, Xijia District, Southwest Peninsula in the past. But some people don’t know yet that the magician’s banquet is also in this mood. Or maybe it's just because the organizer has a noble status, so he plays this trick out of habit.
"Ge..." Another person tried to talk, but before the other person finished speaking, he pretended not to notice and left again. He left the person he was talking to with a rather embarrassed expression.
The temptation to dodge these people is simply a warning sign that is disturbing someone.
This kind of intuition that cannot be explained for a reason has often appeared in my mind recently. It doesn’t matter if it’s right or not, what someone wants is just peace of mind, so most of the time, they would rather believe that they have it than that they don’t have it. And it was later proven that this warning sign was usually not unfounded, but something did happen.
But now at the magician's banquet, a similar warning came to mind. This only shows that the Hongmen Banquet in front of us is indeed full of crises. You don't know how the other party will attack and what kind of traps are prepared.
