Someone passed by the door. It was a team of knights, surrounded by Principal Maria and the Lord of the City.
Wendy looked over timidly, and inadvertently met one of the knights for a moment.
She shrank her neck and snuggled up to Luo Ning's side.
Even knowing that Luo Ning treats herself so tenderly, and even makes couple-like actions such as holding hands and touching heads, most of them are willing to show it to those people, but Wendy is still willing, and she is willing to accompany her. Luo Ning continued.
"Lord Luo Ning," Wendy raised her head to look at Luo Ning after the group of people walked away, "Did those knights make things difficult for Lord Luo Ning?"
Wendy's eyes were a little bright, and she seemed to be looking at Luo Ning's mood when she asked.
In her impression, imperial knights are all arrogant and domineering.
Luo Ning just shook his head, pulled his hand back, and went to hold Wendy's palm.
"Come on, Wendy, let's go in through the side door."
Luo Ning took Wendy, walked out from the side of the corridor in memory, and then entered the banquet hall through the small door.
The people who came to the dinner were basically nobles and military officers from outside the castle, so they would all come in through the central main entrance.
Luo Ning stood in an inconspicuous corner.
There was a heavy Roman column in front of him, and he stood behind the Roman column, his whole body cast into the shadows, his eyes fixed on all kinds of people at the door.
And behind Luo Ning, Wendy accompanied Luo Ning quietly and obediently, with a pair of twinkling eyes gently falling down on her flushed cheeks.
She looked at the hand being held by Luo Ning, and she didn't know what she was thinking about that would make her blush.
307 The royal family from the empire
The gorgeous hall is packaged brightly and flickeringly.
The light from the crystal lamp was a bit intoxicating, and the light spots shone on the rows of tables, embellishing the gold cups and porcelain plates placed on the table gorgeously.
The extravagant wine and fruit bowl was almost overflowing from the luxurious dining table. There was not a single seat here, and the only chair was at the end of the red carpet, on the throne on the steps.
Luo Ning stood behind the Roman pillar for a long time.
He has already seen almost all the guests who came.There are wealthy businessmen, noble ladies with elegant steps and frequent smiles, and some officers and ministers with a little bit of power from the empire, all wearing coats with the imperial emblem, dangling in the hall go.
None of this is special to Luo Ning.
He circled around, and finally set his sights on the only chair in the audience.
That position is undoubtedly a C position, and the person sitting on it will only be today's protagonist—the imperial family of the empire.
Although Luo Ning knew that the emperor of the empire would not be so stupid as to come here himself, but judging from Maria's tone during the day, the person who came tonight definitely had a high position in the empire.
"Hmm~ what are you looking at?"
Behind Luo Ning, a woman's voice came suddenly.
From the perspective of the third person, Luo Ning's behavior of hiding behind the stone pillar and staring at the throne is indeed a bit sneaky.
This woman's voice is quite recognizable, clear and clear, a girlish voice with a bit of laziness and playfulness.
The voice was quite unfamiliar to Luo Ning, and Luo Ning was sure that this was the first time he heard such a voice.
He turned his head in surprise.
What I saw was a beautiful blond hair, the color of the blond hair was not pure, and there was a strand of red hair that looked like highlights.
Luo Ning saw the pair of golden and red pupils, and he frowned strangely.
The girl was wearing a court dress and white gauze gloves on her fingertips. Her eyes were as curious as when Luo Ning looked at her. She was leaning sideways, imitating Luo Ning's movements, and hiding behind the stone pillar to look at the entire hall.
"So, what are you looking at?" She asked curiously again.
Then he set his sights on the high throne, where a gray-haired man was looking for something in a panic.
"Are you an assassin?" The girl blinked at Luo Ning, and her beautiful heterochromatic pupils glanced at Luo Ning with interest.
Luo Ning shook his head: "Have you ever seen someone wearing a uniform to be an assassin?"
Luo Ning raised his arm as he spoke. The suit on his body was slim and tight at the same time. The arm could only be raised to a certain height, and if it went up, it would pull the clothes, which was very inconvenient.
"That's right." The girl tilted her head, thinking that what Luo Ning said made sense.
"Your Highness! Your Highness Sophia!!"
On the other side, the panic-looking man on the high platform finally found his target in a hurry.
He ran over tremblingly, and bowed his head to the girl in front of Luo Ning.
When he got closer, Luo Ning realized that this man's hair was not gray, but a grey-grained head that was especially fashionable on earth.
This person had half a pair of gold-rimmed glasses hanging from his ear, and was wearing a dark gray tuxedo, giving him the appearance of a butler and deacon.
"Your Highness Sophia, please don't leave my sight, the royal city here is very dangerous!"
"Where did I leave your sight? It's obvious that you deserted yourself."
The girl named Sophia spoke lazily, and followed the man away halfway.
The man circled around the girl nervously, and when he saw Luo Ning beside the girl, he even sighed:
"Don't even talk to strange men, men are not good things, Your Highness!"
The man completely forgot to shoot himself in when he shot the map. He took Sophia away from here, and he didn't forget to turn his head and give Luo Ning an angry look on the way.
Luo Ning shrugged, saying that he did nothing.
After the two walked away, Luo Ning came out from the shadows.
It's really not good to stand in such a sneaky corner, it can easily lead to misunderstandings, now that the guests are almost all here, the dinner should start right away.
"Gentlemen and ladies..."
What surprised Luo Ning was that there was a host at the dinner party.
The host held a sound amplifier similar to a microphone in his hand, presumably it should be a new type of magic tool from the empire, and the sound was as loud as if it had been added with sound effects.
Luo Ning didn't listen to what the host was saying. He stood in the crowd, and the burly armored soldiers in front blocked his view. Luo Ning could only lead Wendy to move forward.
Wendy, who was held by Luo Ning, was thoughtful. She was short and couldn't see anything in the crowd.
But she was quite impressed with the woman who just appeared.
"Lord Luo Ning...that woman called 'Sophia' just now..."
"It seems to be, the second imperial daughter of the empire, 'Sophia Clothar'..."
Wendy's voice was very small, and was quickly overwhelmed by the passionate and high-pitched voice of the host on stage.
Luo Ning walked through the crowd to see the people seated on the high platform.
In fact, Luo Ning had thought that the imperial family who came to Yilan King City today should be a woman.
After all, only women would like to hold such a dinner party. If it was a man, they would not engage in such fancy things. At most, they would hold a meeting and then arrange the task of attacking the demons.
But if the person who came was the imperial daughter of the empire...then what he did now would make sense.
Looking at the gorgeous crystal lamps, as well as the well-arranged snacks and meals, all these things are done to please the woman who is the author on the throne.
"Sofia Clotar..." Luo Ning whispered.
The girl sat on the throne, waved her hand to the crowd gently and gracefully, then put her palm on her lips, and let out a lazily huff.
The princess didn't seem to be interested in the people attending the dinner party, she just glanced lightly, her gaze paused on Luo Ning's face, then passed over without a trace, and finally stopped at the dazzling array of dessert fruits on the long table.
In the entire golden hall, she seemed to be only interested in the food on the table.
"Oh oh oh!!"
Behind Luo Ning, men in battle armor and light cloth clothes were rejoicing.
The presence of the imperial daughter undoubtedly strengthened the confidence of the imperial knights present. They were not the first batch of death squads to come here. At least the empire attached great importance to this attack.
After a burst of joy, the host on the stage seemed to have finished his chatter. He walked cautiously in front of Princess Sofia, as if asking if she needed a microphone.
However, Sophia just pushed the stick-like microphone away with one hand, waved her hand in disgust, and then fixed her gaze on the food on the table.
She seemed to really just want to have a meal.
With the end of the princess's series of actions, the dinner party really began.
308 The Queen's Deacon
Luo Ning always thought that the royal family of the Crotal Empire should be a noble and cold-eyed, elegant and mature princess who would not eat the fireworks of the world.
As a result, he saw it today.
Isn't it just a little girl?
The man with grandma's gray head on the stage kept taking meals for Princess Sofia, while the princess leaned on the chair and took a bite, like a little hungry wolf released from an imperial castle, eating dessert recklessly...
Looking at this scene, Luo Ning frowned in confusion.
However, the princess eats happily, but her movements can still be regarded as elegant.
She ate in small bites, each spoonful was just right and even, and even the number of times her pursed pink lips chewed was surprisingly consistent.
This elegance is completely different from Raz who eats his face on the plate.
"Lord Luo Ning, are you going to stop Raz..."
Wendy stayed by Luo Ning's side all the time. She looked at Raz who was sprawled all over the ground, feeling a little worried.
"No need," Luo Ning shook his head, his eyes silently fixed on the 'grandma gray' deacon.
The deacon came down from the steps and left Sophia's side.
He didn't go to the dining table to get food this time, but followed the aisle by the wall and disappeared around the corner.
After all, he was someone close to the princess, so Luo Ning still cared a little about this man.
But this person didn't even guard the princess, and suddenly left, there must be something wrong...
There were certainly many people in the huge hall, but after a careful look around, Luo Ning found that most of the people staying here were noble ladies, or some elegant and luxurious women, and they couldn't even see a man.
And the group of people wearing imperial armor and civilian clothes are also missing.
Where did the gang slip off?
"Wendy, have you seen the old country... the city owner and Principal Maria?"
Luo Ning asked Wendy.
Wendy shook her head: "I haven't seen the City Master since I came in... Is the City Master inconvenient to participate in such an occasion?"
"I should be going to the conference hall." Luo Ning looked away from the corner, "Wendy, stay here with Raz, I'll leave for a while."
With that said, Luo Ning grabbed the back of Wendy's hand and patted it lightly, then walked away from the rich long table and walked straight in the direction where the deacon disappeared.
This dinner can't be as simple as eating and dancing on the surface.
Perhaps the carefully arranged sweets and fruits are indeed for the joy of the princess, but more, they are for the preparation of this invasion war.
It is necessary to discuss countermeasures.Aside from the empire's approach and ambitions, as far as the results are concerned, the empire is indeed a successful careerist, and it is impossible for them to launch a war between different races without complete preparation.
The operation will not continue until they have some certainty.
Luo Ning wanted to see what their cards and grasps were.
And, what method do they want to use to break through such a hard demon barrier.
The fragile physique of human beings is destined to be unable to break through the upper limit of magic power since its birth. The best of them, no matter how powerful they are, no matter how top magicians are, they are only at the level of six or seven.
The power of the light magic that Luo Ning used yesterday has steadily exceeded the limit of human beings.
Go through the hallway lit with magic lamps, and there is a side room off the main hall.
The door of the side room was not closed, and Luo Ning could hear the conversations inside from the outside.
"My lord, it would be great if you could cooperate with us like this. Don't worry, Ilan King City will regain its freedom in a short time."
"After this war is over, the empire will have frequent exchanges with the newly recovered demon territory. At that time, Elan King City will be the transportation fortress connecting the two places, and the rapid development of Elan King City is just around the corner..."
"You are a wise king, my lord, if you are willing to follow the empire like this, the empire will definitely donate generously in the future to make this city of yours the second largest town among human beings!"
In the conference room, around the round table, men in twos and threes sat around the old king.
Those people spoke softly and lowly, with hypocritical smiles on their faces, whispering demon-like bewitching whispers in the old king's ears.
