For the past three years, the Derwent family's autumn dinner has always been on Jasmine's birthday. When David comes to this banquet every year, he will prepare a very nice gift for Jasmine and give it to her as soon as they meet. However, David did not bring his birthday gift with him as usual this year.
He explained that this birthday gift was different from previous years. It was found from a distant star field a hundred thousand light-years away. In order to be effective enough to give everyone a surprise, he had to wait until the deadline for the banquet was approaching before picking it off and giving it away. Get on the spaceship and then cross the vast universe.
"The gift entered the wormhole fifteen minutes ago," David said. "You will be able to see it soon."
"Is that so? Then I'll wait. I hope I can do it sooner." After Jasmine finished speaking, she lay back on the couch weakly and closed her eyes, looking extremely weak. The handsome young men surrounding her covered her with a thin soft quilt.
Mochi put his fingers on Jasmine's neck, couldn't help but shake his head, and said to Grigo: "The overdraft is too much, and her strength can no longer support it. You shouldn't ask her to come downstairs."
Grigo retorted: "There are so many young people at the banquet. If we don't ask Jasmine to take a look for herself, how will we know which one to give to her?"
Mo Qi sighed: "She is like this, what else can she see?"
After thinking about it, he added: "A high-level superpower user of the guardian system should be very beneficial to her in transferring mental stress."
So the handsome young man who was standing opposite Grigo on the terrace immediately said: "Then there is a candidate who should be very suitable." He threw down the crystal glass jar in his hand to the servant, walked into the living room, and told his attendants: "Look, candidate No. 11 should be down there now."
The floor-to-ceiling windows on one side of the large living room dimmed and turned into a projection mirror. A soft shimmer flashed on the mirror, and then a three-dimensional projection of the banquet downstairs was displayed. First, there is a complete grand scene, with fragrant clothes and shadows on the temples, and the slippery hot spring water. Then the scale gradually narrows, with people drinking and laughing, and finally it settles on a handsome man.
Gu Hanhan, who was busy eating fruit to relieve stress, bit the tip of his tongue with a click and almost cried out in pain. She could clearly see that the man shown in close-up in the projection, with his melancholy and calm face full of aristocratic temperament, was not Uncle Rosie!
"Rossi Yves, thirty-seven years old this year, the heir of this generation of the Yves family. In September this year, after arriving at the Lighthouse Star, he showed the strength of a seventh-level guardian system."
The voice of the handsome young man was as clear and crisp as pearls falling on a jade plate. It was full of excitement in its purity, and it was full of determination in its elegance. It had an almost coquettish beauty as soon as it opened its mouth, as if the white snow in the spring had played a golden horse.
David secretly told Gu Hanhan that the handsome young man named Xingluo was originally a prince of a large empire in the Milky Way. He gave up his inheritance rights seven years ago and became Lord Grigo's chamberlain.
Xingluo continued: "From all aspects of the situation, he is the most suitable candidate to relieve Miss Jasmine's mental pressure. The only troublesome thing is that the Yves family is a family that has existed for thousands of generations when the Crown of Thorns was established. Although It has declined in recent decades, but if he is unwilling to force it, it will inevitably cause some minor unrest - of course, there are ways to solve this."
Mo Qi laughed: "Then let him be willing. At this time, it is not good to cause turmoil."
Grigori asked curiously: "Why didn't I hear you mention it before? Forget it, it's not too late for you to say it now. After the banquet, bring this Rosie-Yves here. I'll ask him first if he is willing."
Xingluo hated the fact that iron could not become steel, and thought to himself: I only mentioned it now because I wanted to ask Mo Qi, the old fox, to come out and be a villain, but it turned out to be a good thing. The old fox didn't take the fool of you, but he jumped out and asked to charge into the battle. In such a sensitive period like this, if you don’t know what to say, just shut up, no one will treat you idiot as a mute! My ancestors were really unscrupulous and unlucky to be deprived of working day and night by such a fool! I really want to slap him twice. Although I can't make him smarter, I can at least shut him up!
However, in front of so many outsiders present, Xingluo seemed to have to stick to the way of being a servant. He first respectfully agreed: "Yes, sir." Then he lowered his head and advised: "It seems that there is no need to rush, sir. If today's banquet can harvest a suitable healer, then Miss Jasmine can rest in peace for a while. After a while, my body will probably be able to recover a little."
Grigo was immediately alert. Xingluo would call him "Sir" in this tone. The situation was very bad. So, with a sullen face, he quickly changed his tone: "It's so verbose, you can just figure it out yourself!"
Gu Hanhan on the side felt more and more something was wrong as he listened, and finally woke up and realized: I am, you are going to use my Uncle Rosie as a human flesh cauldron! Too shameless! Even my sister was not willing to let Uncle Rosie help her to divert her mental stress and turn her into drug residue. Bastards, bastards, I must report you to the Earth Goddess Gaia - don’t think that I can’t figure out that it’s not the fault of you two old sick ghosts that Senior Jasmine is acting like that! Senior Sister Jasmine is a healer with the ultimate strength of level 8. If she hadn't been in a cycle with level 9 old sick guys like you, how could she have had such a huge backlash pressure? Her body can't bear it anymore!
So, Gu Hanhan thought about making trouble for the old and sick people, and was determined not to let their bad intentions against Uncle Rosie come true. At the very least, I have to give my uncle a tip and tell him to run away. Even if you can't defeat it, the Milky Way is so big, Izuku can still do it...
"Let's discuss it with Anthony first. Isn't he the master of the house? He just takes money and doesn't work all day long. This time my little brother is going to be robbed and turned into medicine dregs. He, the master, should stand up for himself... "
Thinking of this, Gu Hanhan quietly opened his private space. But this living room obviously has communication shielding, the communication frequency band is gray, and all ordinary communications are blocked - it doesn't matter, Gu Hanhan still has Anthony's secret code and the artifact small compass.
Gu Hanhan remembered that Anthony once mentioned to himself that due to the homology of energy and the effect of internal induction, he could sense all the energy fluctuations that occurred on the original secret book at the planetary level. If you want to transmit more complex information, you have to borrow the converter and precise directional transmission functions of the Zeus Compass. In short, as long as the Zeus compass is fused with the original secret code, the shielding network can be bypassed and emergency communications can be temporarily carried out.
Of course, knowing it is one thing, but actually using it is another thing, especially if it is high-tech. The five good girls from Earth, who had always only talked and never opened the sewers, felt a lot of pressure after digging out Anthony's secret code. She urgently crammed in the physics that she had learned at the undergraduate level, which was not enough.
She had to engage in fusion, send encrypted communications, and be wary of being discovered. She didn't dare to materialize the secret code and compass, so she could only do it in nothingness. While pretending to eat snacks, I was so busy that my heart was sweating, and I didn't know whether it was a success or not.
When David saw Gu Hanhan's distraught appearance with grass growing on her body, he knew that she was getting serious and worried about her life. David felt really unhappy and almost wanted to help Xing Luo and risk the death of Rosie's "love rival". However, looking at Gu Hanhan's face and recalling how cute she looked when she walked away in anger that day, I decided to forget it. Could David Duran win the heart of his beloved woman on his own? Why do you have to use dirty methods to get rid of your opponents! He was 100% sure of what was going to happen today, so there was no need to turn into a snake to fill up his worries.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine." David told Gu Hanhan in a low voice, "I have other plans - Jasmine's mental backlash and something unexpected happened."
Gu Hanhan felt guilty, so he shook his hand and made a "pop" sound, not only cutting off the communication, but also turning off Anthony's secret code. The energy feedback disappeared instantly, and the secret code fell into sleep. Gu Hanhan raised his head nervously: "What did you say, what happened?"
David shook his head slightly and said nothing.
It happened that at this time, an announcement was made outside the door: "The envoy of Lord Critikus has arrived."
So he revealed the matter by the way, and the two of them looked at the door together.
As the four doors opened, a heroic noble man came in. He wore a crisp long gown, with gemstones on the collar and front placket sparkling, and the belt at the waist was tightened extremely tightly, making his figure even more upright, with broad shoulders and a slender neck.
He is not old, at least he doesn't look old. He looks like he is only in his twenties. Even according to the unspoken rule that superpowers lose ten years when seeing someone, he is still only in his early thirties, but his eyes are bright and clear. The combination of the strong nose bridge and broad forehead gives him a completely mature masculine temperament. He had long legs and a firm and powerful step. He walked steadily through the door. An attendant followed him with a box containing gifts in his hand and his head lowered.
The man walked to the center of the living room and stopped, bowed his head to greet Mochi and Griego, and then introduced himself as a vassal of Lord Critikus, named Krauser Shaw Berg, who today represents his family. Came here specially to send gifts for the autumn dinner.
After saying that, he nodded slightly, and the attendant behind him stepped forward and placed the gift box in his hand on the tray handed over by the ceremonial footman.
"Originally, Your Majesty should come in person," Krauser-Shaw-Berg explained, "but because of his physical discomfort and the fact that he has been recuperating, it is really inconvenient for him to do so."
"What's the inconvenience?" Grigo curled his lips, "He is obviously nearby, no more than one kilometer away."
one kilometer? The diameter of this palace is more than one kilometer!
So Caesar of Ogra, Critikus, who has disappeared from the universe for half a year, is at the banquet below?
where is it? !
Gu Hanhan was the first to turn her head and scanned the panoramic stereoscopic projection. As for the legendary Ogra Caesar, the son-in-law of the fat madman Chairman Crassus, the mysterious masked man in the universe, she was still Very interested.
David's eyes darkened. If Caesar of Ogra was really safe and sound and came to the Lighthouse, then the things his father and the others were doing secretly could no longer be tolerated no matter what.
Krauser-Shaw smiled slightly, expressing silence implicitly, neither admitting nor denying, and feeling unparalleled joy in his heart——
Your Excellency is really on the Lighthouse Star, and it’s at this party!
He secretly touched the copy of the secret code carefully placed in the ring, and his eyes inadvertently scanned everyone in the living room.
Xingluo lowered his head and sighed in his heart: Does this idiot have to tell everything he knows? Still showing off proudly, is he only five years old? Critikus hid his whereabouts apparently because he did not want to meet the new emperor of Ogra who would arrive at Lighthouse Star soon. Internal strife in Ogra is imminent, why do you, the idiot, want to speak out to alert others? I, Xing Luo, have such an unscrupulous ancestor that I was robbed by such a fool!
However, Grigo not only said that, but also asked Mochi for confirmation: "You also felt it, right? That kid has been here for at least an hour, and he also disguised himself as a seventh-level person. This is really That's ridiculous."
"Come on, who didn't pretend to be a ranger when they were young and go to the Tiber River to duel for the girls." Mo Qi smiled and smoothed things over for his pig teammates, "Let's see what the little guy gave Jasmine. What a gift."
