Chapter 651 Secret
Before Shuster arrived, the strongest person in the field was an eighth-level storm wizard who was responsible for protecting the messenger. The other party was unaware of his detection, which showed that his mental power was far weaker than his.
As an eighth-level innate magic in the field of illusion, Avis easily confused the seventh-level city lord, making the city lord think that the boy next to him was the newly captured Avis.
He himself sat in the city lord's study, with his mental power open, covering and observing the situation in the entire city lord's mansion.
In fact, the moment he was brought into the city lord's mansion by the stupid thief, Avis's mental power had already scanned the entire city lord's mansion and confirmed that there was no real threat to him.
In fact, this is the normal style of the Yar Continent. Because the real ninth-level is extremely rare, and often erratic, and almost never appears in front of low- and middle-level professionals.
The strongest professional who will appear in normal occasions is the seventh-level, and it is extremely rare to see an eighth-level professional.
Avis often sees various ninth-level people, but his status as the son of Duke Carrot has caused some deviations.
Before this banquet, the discussion between the city lord and the housekeeper had been heard by Avis.
He was not sure whether the arrival of the envoys of the marquis tonight was also affected by the mercury dice, but this carnival dinner was obviously the "place where desires gather" indicated by the mercury dice.
This is a good opportunity, not only to cultivate the growth of the seeds of desire, but also to arrange a little surprise for the marquis who took the lead in the rebellion.
So, he waited patiently until now.
The city lord of Longying City did not disappoint him. This grand carnival banquet made Avis feel very novel, and also let him understand the entertainment methods of ordinary nobles and professionals in the Federation.
When many professionals in the atrium began to revel, Avis could clearly feel that a large amount of chaotic desire power began to rise. The seeds of desire suspended in his spiritual space also became obviously active as if they were strongly stimulated.
Especially when many professionals drank the dream potion and sank into the blissful dream, more intense and strong desires emanated from them, like containers that were completely full but still being filled.
These overflowing invisible desires gathered together, watering the seeds of desire like evil nectar, causing misty lines to gradually climb on its surface.
Avis also got a bottle of that dream potion. According to his analysis, the main ingredients were quite inferior dream grass and dark moth scale powder, which had a weak magic power to evoke desires and illusions in the heart, but had no effect on him.
At the same time, as the banquet at the main venue progressed, in addition to the people from the [Spark] organization, Avis was concerned that in secret contact with the marquis representative, there were also some nobles from the Glory Alliance and representatives of some small and medium-sized kingdoms in the Federation, but their strength was not strong, and the real big fish did not show up.
The meeting tonight was just a prelude. The high-level forces of the Federation were still in a wait-and-see state, hesitating whether to take the opportunity to intervene in the civil war of the empire and get a share of the spoils.
The biggest risk was that no one could be sure how long the "friction" between the marquises and the two families would last. If the marquises gave in too quickly, the foreign forces that rashly intervened would suffer, and all the initial investment would be equivalent to a waste of money.
And tonight, the meeting between everyone and the marquis's envoy also had the purpose of exploring the other party's background.
However, despite all the attempts, the envoy did not give in, but only used various clichés to deal with everyone. And he refused to come up with something substantial on the grounds that people had not arrived yet and time had not come yet.
It was only when Shute of the Spark Organization arrived that the envoy's posture changed slightly with the secret prompt of the storm wizard who was guarding him, and he saluted him very formally, but still did not give in.
This situation made Avis a little curious. What was the other party waiting for? .
….….
As time went by, the banquet tonight finally reached its climax.
On the main seat, the somewhat fat city lord finally stood up from the love slaves and strode onto the stepped platform in the center of the hall.
At the same time, under the effect of magic, the lights in the entire hall suddenly gathered on him, making his tall figure bathed in the attention of the audience.
"Everyone! I declare that tonight's dinner is over!"
Hearing the city lord's call, including the classical orchestra that was playing, everyone temporarily quieted down, and turned their eyes to the figure with a dark golden mask standing at the highest point.
Amid a large number of eyes with faint expectations, the city lord raised his hands and shouted.
"Now, the dance begins!"
As the city lord's voice fell, the background music sounded again, but unlike the elegant classical music that originally lingered in the venue, the music now changed to a rhapsody full of sweetness and lust.
Every note seemed to carry passion and provocation, just like the silver music played in the endless carnival party in the garden of the gods in ancient mythology.
Beautiful girls and boys with different appearances but numb expressions, wearing light gauze and magic-forbidden neck rings, entered the hall holding a pure gold tray. On it, bottles of magic potions with even more psychedelic and beautiful colors were neatly arranged on it.
Different from the dream potions used by those low-level professionals, they are more advanced and will not make the drinker fall into a dream, but will exponentially amplify all happy and exciting emotions.
A noble guest casually took a bottle from it and drank it in one gulp without hesitation. Then, they hugged a famous girl and boy and entered the dance floor, dancing wildly and enjoying the depraved carnival.
The wonderful world opens its door to them, and all morals and bottom lines are abandoned, as if the Garden of the Gods in classical mythology has come to the world at this moment.
At this moment, in Anvis' perception, the chaotic power of desire in the environment once again rose to a new level.
"Now, everyone, the time has come."
In this chaotic crowd, the ambassador seemed to have finally waited for what he was waiting for. His tone changed, he stopped prevaricating and delaying, and actually began to tell the information that everyone wanted to know.
"I know very well what you are worried about. It is nothing more than worrying that the Marquises behind me will fail too quickly, causing heavy losses to themselves."
Having said this, a trace of disdain flashed across the messenger's eyes.
"Everyone knows how powerful the four major families in the empire are, but everyone, have you ever thought about one thing? Why did His Majesty the Marquis suddenly choose to join forces this time and directly attack the two major families?
Have your Majesty the Marquis not thought about the issues you are worried about? If the plan fails, the losses suffered by His Majesty the Marquis will only be ten times and a hundred times greater than those of you! "
"Now, I can tell you clearly that this time the situation is different from the past. There is an extremely special force that has reached a secret cooperation with the Marquis and His Majesty.
It is precisely because of the joining of this force and having enough confidence that we dare to try to compete with the two major families head-on! "
Gugu, make up for yesterday’s, there are still more today
