Full-Time Magister: The Failed Knight, But the Dark Angel

Chapter 48: The ones who were tied up were the Mu Nujiao sisters! (Bonus Chapter!)

Mu Nuxin led Liu Ru into Linglong Apartment.

After receiving the invitation, the security guard gave the two girls and their female bodyguard a respectful smile and led them to the top floor.

Mu Ningwei, with Fei Yi by his side, stood in Mu Nuxin's shadow and arrived at the top floor, where he was somewhat surprised by the scene inside.

The 60th floor has been transformed into a huge banquet dance floor. In the dim light, the colorful lights on the rooftop twinkle and rotate, adding to the decadent and festive atmosphere.

Men and women danced and sang on the dance floor, and toasted each other at the banquet, creating a lively atmosphere.

The handsome bartenders and waiters reeked of vampire decay. Even some impeccably dressed, good-looking men and women were, in essence, vampires themselves.

Besides these, there are many normal people.

There are monks and ordinary people.

Mu Ningwei even saw familiar faces.

"Faye, take good care of Nuxin."

Faye nodded.

Mu Ning moved in a shadowy manner, appearing at the edge of the banquet, distorting the light shining on the area, and arriving in front of two women chatting and enjoying desserts in a corner:

"Bai Tingting?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Bai Tingting, with her youthful face and radiant smile, turned her head, her expression one of delight:

"Brother Mu!"

"Tingting, is this Brother Mu you've been talking about all this time?"

Lu Qingyao looked him over curiously, "He really is handsome, no wonder my Tingting can't forget him."

"Shake gently!"

Bai Tingting became anxious and glanced shyly at Mu Ningwei. "Brother Mu, she is my friend Lu Qingyao. Don't listen to her nonsense. I just... I just told her some things about you."

Mu Ningwei nodded as a greeting, "Bai Tingting, what are you doing here?"

Bai Tingting exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Wasn't Brother Mu invited by the Lu family?"

"This is a welcome party prepared by the Lu family for Robert, a wealthy foreign businessman, who came to Shanghai to invest in business. Many big businessmen are attending."

"Qingyao invited me, so I'll just go through the motions on behalf of the Bai family. Dongfang Lie from the Dongfang family is also here."

"I think I just saw Mu Nuxin. Your Mu family should have received an invitation too. Didn't Brother Mu come with Mu Nuxin?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Ningwei looked at Lu Qingyao and asked, "Who told you to invite Bai Tingting?"

Bai Tingting asked in confusion, "Brother Mu?"

Lu Qingyao wrinkled her nose and hesitated for a moment.

Although the question was very impolite, perhaps because Mu Ningwei was indeed handsome, Lu Qingyao didn't feel offended and answered:

"The head of the family told me that Mr. Robert hopes that important figures from the younger generation of the Bai family will come to show their support."

Bai Tingting was surprised, "I was invited by Mr. Robert himself?"

After her experience in the desolate city, Bai Tingting brought great benefits to the Bai family, and she quickly became the most important person among her peers.

Lu Qing shook her head and asked疑惑地问道, "Is there a problem?"

Bai Tingting blinked. "Yes, Brother Mu, is there a problem?"

Mu Ningwei shook his head slightly, "It seems their appetite is bigger than I imagined."

……

The banquet was a great success.

Robert stood on the rooftop, looking down at the steel jungle of Shanghai.

Are you sure you want to do this?

"Count Hung Shih-pin, a long-haired, elegant Asian man, asked."

Roberts scoffed, "Are you scared?"

Hong Shibin sighed softly, "Controlling figures in Shanghai's business world, and then controlling key members of the Bai, Mu, and Dongfang families—I can't believe you dared to do something like this."

Robert laughed loudly, "The Lu family invited me here, hoping I could help them regain their footing. But what treasures does a family that's been plundered have that I could possibly want, besides the power they still possess?"

"They can't satisfy my appetite."

Hong Shih-pin: "So you take action against businessmen."

Rob nodded. "After this is done, the Lu family will be completely dragged into this mess and will never be able to clear their name. They can only help me resist the pressure from the major powers in Shanghai and follow me down this dark path."

"And with Bai Tingting, Mu Nuxin, and Dongfang Lie under my control, the other three major families will at least not act rashly."

"Once I've made enough money, I'll go back to Europe immediately. What does the fate of the Lu family have to do with me?"

Hong Shibin was somewhat worried. "You shouldn't have made a move against Mu Nuxin. This will make us provoke Fei Yi. And that 'Holy Knight of Eternal Night' Mu Ningwei."

Robert scoffed, "Looking back and forth, cowardly as a mouse! If Mu Ningwei hadn't taken Mu Nujiao away, both sisters would have been my targets!"

"If we don't hold key members hostage, how can we control them?"

"Fei is really getting worse as she gets older. I can understand being captured by Mu Ningwei once. After all, there will always be a few special beings in the human world, just like Qin Yu'er a while ago."

"But she actually went to Mu Ningwei. How ridiculous. When Mu Ningwei dies of old age, she will fall into a deep sleep and just wait to be found and eaten by me."

Hong Shibin was worried. "Ke Fei's attitude further illustrates that we shouldn't provoke Mu Ningwei."

"madness."

Robert retorted, "I've heard rumors in Europe that Mu Ning is fiercely protective of his own. Do you think that just because we kidnapped other members of the Mu family, it doesn't count as provoking him?"

Hong Shih-pin: "But Mu Ningwei and Fei Yi are already back. What if they've figured out our plan and are already lying in ambush outside Linglong Apartment?"

Robert was surprised. "An ambush is fine, but with so many important people invited to the banquet and so many influential figures living in the apartment, who would dare to make a move here?"

"Even casting a mid-level spell could potentially kill someone important to a certain figure, making them hesitant to act against them."

"Even if a top-tier expert came, they wouldn't dare to make a move in the Linglong Apartment. They could only do what our plan has succeeded."

Hong Shih-pin: "What if the people who come are very strong, possessing light-type celestial seeds, and manage to eliminate us without harming others?"

Robert was speechless. "Why don't you just say you're going to use a forbidden light spell! We're monarchs, we have so many hostages in our hands, I really don't understand what you're afraid of."

"Fine, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on you, just get started."

"Control these businessmen, and while the Lu family can withstand the pressure, make as much money as you can. You should at least make hundreds of billions before you leave."

Hong Shibin took a deep breath and arrived at the banquet dance floor on the 60th floor with Robert.

As the main figure at the banquet, Robert's appearance attracted much attention.

The crowd cheered and escorted Robert onto the center stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have an important announcement to make today!"

Robert raised his arms and shouted under the colorful lights, "You lowly, short-lived broods, I, the Marquis, will be the master of all of you! Are you happy? Cheers!"

The lively banquet came to an abrupt end.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

The waiters and security guards bared their gleaming white fangs, their five fingers growing sharp claws, and their blood-red eyes greedily stared at their terrified prey beside them.

In a short moment, they transformed from well-dressed humans into brutal and ugly beasts.

"Aaaaaaaahh ...

The crowd was terrified.

Some of the mages present had just begun to unleash their magical counterattacks when the vampires, laughing maniacally, knocked them unconscious.

A mage with a fragile body is vulnerable when demons get close.

Even if a mage deploys their armor and magical artifacts, they can only hold out against vampires for a little longer.

With the monarch Hong Shibin personally taking action, all the Lu family elders present were instantly dealt with.

Not to mention the other high-ranking merchants and bodyguards, who couldn't even escape and were caught and dragged back by the vampire with a sinister grin.
