Chapter 234
"So, may I ask Mr. Didiwei, are you looking for me for something, or are you just here to say hello?" Lu Lin asked. ⑹
⒍"Since you have come to our Fulfulde, of course we have to treat you well," Didiwe said. "As for the rest, let's put it this way, there is a saying of the Dagash Cult, 'Business is like wine. Jokes at the table will always come up as we chat."
⑥As he spoke, Didiwe took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Lu Lin.
⑶ "Our city lord invites you to a banquet at the city lord's mansion tonight, and I hope that Mr. Lu Lin will pay you a favor when the time comes," Didiwe said with a smile.
⑷ Lu Lin took the envelope and opened it, and found that it was indeed a banquet invitation, with the signature written "Lord of the City of Fulfurd - Roman Cadibang".
si "In the evening, okay, I understand," Lu Lin nodded and put away the invitation, "I will go then."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for Mr. Lu Lin then," Didiwei smiled, "I won't disturb you while you're in the city. If you encounter anything unpleasant, please remember to find our guards, they will Help you deal with it.”
After that, Didiwe took the people away.
Looking at their backs, Lu Lin touched his chin and put the envelope into his pocket.
At this moment, Xiulinsi's voice suddenly came from behind.
"You actually agreed?"
Lu Lin looked back and saw Xiulinsi holding a prototype sniper rifle and leaning against the door frame.
"Other city lords have personally sent invitations, so we can't help but give face," Lu Lin shrugged, "Why do you say it's unexpected?"
"Those are people from the Great Gash Cult," Xiulins frowned. "Do you know how tiring it is to deal with this group of people? These people are called the most astute businessmen in the world. If they are not careful, they will They lead you into a pit, and it’s the kind of pit that you can’t discover in the short term, but you will only find out that you have suffered a loss after a long time.”
"It doesn't matter. We have equally smart guys, right?" Lu Lin shrugged.
"That familiar of yours?" 嗖-¨嗦:wine∵〇㈣聁偲 2 Uncle Linsi touched her chin, "But it's not here..."
"I'm not here now, but I'll be here later," Lu Lin said. "As for him, I don't plan to discuss business with them before he comes back."

"But they obviously came here just to discuss business with you," Xiulinsi said.
"Yes, I know, that's why it's even more important," Lu Lin said with a smile, "At times like this, the less anxious you are, the more anxious the other party will be."
Chapter 384: The cat robe can be replaced, but it cannot be replaced
In the following time, Lu Lin continued to walk around the city with Li Mi.
In fact, Lu Lin wanted to study the magic puppet he bought in detail, but since he decided to take Li Mi around today, he naturally pushed back on the matter.
At noon, Lu Lin found a local restaurant that seemed to have a good business and a good environment, and tried the local specialties.
The style of the dishes is a bit similar to the Southeast Asian cuisine that Lu Lin had eaten in his previous life. There are many sweet and sour seasonings, which is not too bad for Lu. Lin's appetite, but it's not bad to eat something fresh.
As for the afternoon, Lu Lin took Li Mi to visit a clothing store.
As the most traditional item of shopping, when you don’t know what to shop for, it is always the best choice to check out the sample clothes in a ready-made clothing store or a custom clothing store.
It just so happened that I was going to attend a dinner party that evening, so I wanted to choose a suitable outfit for Li Mi.
As for what clothes are suitable...
Generally speaking, you will definitely find a style such as a gorgeous evening dress appropriate.
But the first thing Lu Lin denied was this style.
This was the first time that he and Representative Wu Xiang had set foot on such an occasion. The Dagashi Gang had a strong ability to collect intelligence, and their ability to disseminate information was certainly also good.
Whatever image they appear in this time will definitely be popular. Lu Lin has no intention of dressing up as a flower pot companion for Li Mi.
She is the original brave man of Wuxiang and the original reason why Lu Lin founded Wuxiang. Lu Lin is the one who takes care of her, and she is also the one who always protects Lu Lin.
Only by making her image consistent with all of this will it be easier to establish their image in the rumors.
This has two benefits.
One is that when they want others to know it's them, it's easier for others to spot it.
The second is that when they don't want others to see who they are, it's easier to be unable to tell them apart.
So Lu Lin finally chose to buy a looser, dark gray swordsman uniform for Li Mi. It was paired with a hat for sun protection and a waist sword purely for decoration. It looked quite like an oriental swordsman. the taste of.
Rumi seemed quite satisfied with this outfit.
Although Lu Lin always felt that as long as he matched the clothes for Li Mi, Li Mi would almost never be dissatisfied. He didn't know whether he didn't choose the clothes or...
cough.
Forget it, compared to Li Mi, Lu Lin's own clothes are more worthy of consideration now.
In the past, I added a lot of cat elements to my clothes. The initial consideration was to make myself look less like a dangerous person.
But now, this consideration is obviously outdated.
To this day, in addition to improving affinity, the role of this pattern is to create contrast.
Sometimes it might be quite "showy", but considering his identity, this pattern is somewhat inappropriate as formal wear now.
So, Lu Lin asked someone to remove the mark on his clothes and printed a light gray broken moon emblem on his back.
Of course, Lu Lin now has some feelings for the cat pattern in the past. Lu Lin took the print and customized a light-colored alchemist robe, changed the color of the print and printed it on it, planning to wear that robe when he needs a different style of robe to hide his identity in the future.
Although the speed and efficiency of clothing customization in this world are very fast due to the existence of magic, it was almost dinner time when Lu Lin finished the robe he wanted.
After returning to Dilong to change clothes and taking care of his appearance a little, Lu Lin took Li Mi to the banquet.
The City Lord's Mansion is located in a large garden in the city center. In terms of land area alone, it should be regarded as the largest "private residence" in the city.
Whether it is the workmanship of the gate, the decoration of the wall, or the decoration and green plants in the garden, the atmosphere of wealth is everywhere.
Even the road on the ground is made of colored bricks that are relatively rare in this world.
It seems that many people were invited to the banquet that night. Lu Lin could see the dragons and carriages coming and going at the door from a distance.
Every time a carriage or dragon stopped, a few people would come down from it, hand in the invitation letter at the door, and enter the manor.
There are two details that are worth noting.
First, these people are of different races and have different styles of dress. Although the Land of Chaos is a hodgepodge of various races, their clothes often have the characteristics of the local climate. This situation shows that these people should come from different regions, and it is very likely that a large part of them were teleported from somewhere.
⑻ Second, these invitations are old and new, and after submission, the guards will return them after checking. There are even some people who are not opened by the guards and let them go directly. Obviously, they come here often.
⒌ "Even if this is a commercial city with a lot of business, so many people can't have something to say to the city lord every day..." Lu Lin touched his chin. thorn
⑺It seems that this dinner is probably not just a banquet for the city lord to entertain guests. It may be a kind of "business platform" that brings together a large group of businessmen. Yi
Liu With the style of the Great Gash Church, it is not surprising that such a gathering is organized. 4
Lu just doesn't know what attitude the other party will use to treat him. Zhe
3Thinking of this, Lu Lin put on the crow mask.
⒋At this moment, the decorative elements on the black crow robe have been completely removed. Except for the moon god emblem and the broken moon emblem on the chest, and the large broken moon emblem on the back, there is no decoration. Buy
4With the crow mask and the Carlton staff composed of black vines and bloody red stones, Lu Lin's aura seems particularly mysterious and dangerous. :
⑵Li Mi on the side lowered his head slightly, covering half of his face with the brim of his hat, holding the long sword at his waist with one hand and the other hand behind his back. He looked fierce and showed another dangerous style. jiu
To be honest, although Lu Lin once said that he wanted to go the friendly route, the current style of the two of them is completely dangerous. They don't look like they are here to attend the banquet, but rather like they are here to mess up the place. 0
So when they walked to the door of the manor, the pedestrians and visitors who were originally talking and laughing around them all quieted down, and all their eyes were focused on them. ⒋
Even the guards at the door were shaking when they took Lu Lin's invitation. ba
Lu Lin was a little confused. ⒋
When did he have this aura?
Even if his style is a little more serious now, it shouldn't be that serious, right? 9
I secretly glanced at Li Mi beside me and felt that his movements were a little strange, as if they were different from usual. 0
But just talking about the feeling, there is no difference from usual, right? Wu
I just changed my clothes, aren't these people's reactions a bit exaggerated?
"Well, that's fine, please come in, the reception room is just down this road..."
After taking back his invitation from the trembling guard, Lu Lin walked into the manor with a head full of question marks.
After their figures disappeared completely, the surrounding sounds gradually began to appear again.
"Oh my God, what's wrong with those two guys? They are so scary," said a man dressed as an aristocrat, holding his chest.
"I don't know," a female wizard swallowed her saliva, "The wizard is okay, but the aura of the female swordsman next to her is too scary. Just looking at her makes me feel like there is a sword on my neck."
"But you have to know that the female swordsman is still following the wizard," a warrior who looks quite powerful said, "Also, have you seen the pattern on the wizard's back? Does anyone know what it is?"
"I don't know, I've never heard of it before," said a scholar, "and that man is not a wizard. If I'm not mistaken about the structure of the robe, he should be an alchemist."9
"Could it be the Black Magic School? But when did the Black Magic School have such a powerful swordsman?" An old man with tribal-style clothing frowned. Mio
For a while, everyone talked a lot, but they were all meaningless questions.
But their discussion aroused the curiosity of more people who had just arrived. As a result, almost everyone who came later heard that there was a man wearing a crow robe with a broken moon emblem on his back. They didn't know who he was and where he came from. The black alchemist came to the banquet with a female swordsman with a terrifying aura. Everyone was very curious and wanted to go to the banquet to see what the two people in the rumors looked like and what their origins were. . rake
And as the information about the two people spread, Lu Lin and Li Mi vaguely became the absolute protagonists of tonight's banquet.椤
Chapter 385: I’m used to it, I mainly focus on Lu Jialiwei
The entire second floor of the City Lord's Mansion was decorated as a banquet hall by the City Lord of Fulfulde City. pull
The banquet hall is a perfect circle with a circular stage in the center, which is usually used as a podium for the host to speak and a stage for music performances. lin
There are a large number of long curved tables placed in a circle around it to serve food and drinks for the banquet. 5
So far, this place is actually no different from an ordinary banquet hall.
But if you look at the walls at the edge of the banquet hall, you can see that this place is different.
There are no windows on the walls of the entire banquet hall, replaced by double doors every three meters.
The door leaf is made of wooden grid frame and equipped with transparent glass plate, which plays the dual role of window and door.
Behind the door are enclosed balconies. The space inside the balcony is not small. There is a table, two curved couches, and huge floor-to-ceiling windows.
People in the banquet hall, or people outside the house, can see the people inside through the doors and floor-to-ceiling windows, but they cannot hear the sounds inside.
The purpose of this design is also obvious. It can not only ensure that all people who come to the banquet can be seen and found by others, but also prepare enough soundproof rooms for people who need to discuss business.
At this time, in one of the soundproof rooms, a dark-skinned man from the Earth Spirit Tribe with a bare upper body, wide white pants, and huge braids was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the entrance to the manor below.
This person is none other than the lord of Fulfulde City—Roman Cadibang.
He is obviously the city lord but is shirtless. If he were placed anywhere else, it might look very inappropriate.
But in fact, since Fulfulde City is located in a high-temperature area on the edge of the desert, topless clothing is very common for warriors whose bodies are able to withstand sun exposure.
When Luo Men chose to dress like this, he was actually telling others that he, the city lord, was not only a businessman, but also a warrior.
However, as a member of the Great Gash Cult, it is their standard feature to display wealth on their body. As a city lord, Luo Men naturally cannot be shabby.
But unlike most people who decorate themselves with lots of gems and gorgeous decorations, Luo Men only had one thing to show off his wealth.
That was the bright red stone he hung on his neck.
This red gem containing the fire of life is two fingers thick, as big as a fist, clear and translucent, and full of magic power.
This kind of gem was produced by the Tianri Sect and was not too rare on the market a hundred years ago.
But after Tianri taught something back then, the mining of this thing seemed to have stopped. Even today, although it is still in circulation on the market, they are all things left over from the past.
And looking at all the bright red stones produced in ancient and modern times, the one hanging on Luo Men's chest is definitely among the top five in terms of quality and value.
If it were put up for auction, it would definitely fetch a sky-high price.
This was also the reason why he never wore other jewelry and only hung this gem on his chest.
Just this one gem is enough to show his wealth.
But today, he suddenly began to hesitate whether to put away the gem on his chest.
Because he discovered that the red stone at the end of the alchemy staff in Lu Lin's hand seemed to be more than three times larger than the one on his chest, and the quality was excellent, surpassing any red stone he had ever seen before.
Even if you don't consider the size and only consider the quality, there is no one that can compare with this ruby.
Because of its good appearance, most people would probably even regard it as an artificial magic crystal with fire attributes. It was only after Luomen had been dealing with brilliant red stones for many years that he could see that this gem was a natural brilliant red stone.
When he first heard that Lu Lin, with a small team of troops, successfully stopped the Holy Cult's actions, single-handedly reversed the entire battlefield, and ate up almost all the troops supported by the Seventh Holy City of the Holy Cult, he actually didn't believe it. .
It was only after seeing that Lu Lin successfully formed an alliance with the Boundless Church in his personal capacity that he basically recognized this rumor.
But deep down, I was actually wondering whether Lu Lin was actually a spokesperson for a certain force on the surface, but actually a smoke bomb to cover up a hidden force.
