The carriage stopped, and the squires in black tuxedos, white gloves and velvet hats standing outside Condela Fort had politely and thoughtfully opened the carriage door.
Xia Ping'an got out of the car, then stretched out his hand, held Mrs. Caitlin's palm, and asked Mrs. Caitlin to get out of the car with her skirt. When Mrs. Caitlin got out of the car, she naturally took Xia Ping'an's arm with one hand, The two walked towards the gate of the castle.
Seeing that many people around were staring at the airship in the sky, Xia Ping'an also turned his head to take a look.
"That's the airship of the Rabelais family..." Mrs. Catelyn glanced at the sky and said softly to Xia Pingan, "The Rabelais family is the most powerful force in the Brad Peninsula and controls the most powerful force in the Brad Peninsula. The core central plain and the important coastal cities have the largest number of troops. At the same time, I heard that the Rabelais family is also rich in powerful summoners. This is the family that has the most hope of unifying the Brad Peninsula. It is very difficult to mess with. This time It should be the big man of the Rabelais family here..."
"Oh, is that so?" Xia Ping'an was about to summon the lucky boy to check the situation. He didn't expect the strange feeling of the body of the gods to disappear in the blink of an eye. Xia Ping'an didn't know what was going on. The guests in formal attire who walked towards the castle gate, "It seems that the Helena family is indeed very influential, and even the forces of the Brad Peninsula have come to congratulate!"
"Of course, Helena's father used to serve as a member of Red Ron's cabinet and had great influence in the capital. Helena's brother is now the current governor of Brandy Province, and the trend of Brandy Province is also It can affect the situation on the Brad Peninsula, and it is normal for people from the Rabelais family to visit!"
"I'm really not interested in politics!" Xia Pingan smiled.
"But none of us can get away from it, unless we live in isolation, in the mountains and forests. I remember a philosopher who said that from the moment people are born, they are branded with politics..."
"Maybe!" The two said, and they had already reached the gate of the castle. Xia Ping'an took out two invitations and handed them over, and then calmly stepped on the red carpet with Mrs. Caitlin and entered the castle.
By this time, the sky had already darkened, and the fireflies just summoned by the summoner were dotted all over the castle, fluttering lightly, making the whole castle even more splendid. In the center of the castle square, the giant looked like a sculpture. Holding an umbrella to block the sky, illusion petals fell from time to time in the sky, the band was playing melodious music, and the summoned flower elves more than a foot high and flapping their wings were holding wine glasses. Flying around, the whole castle is full of gorgeous and romantic atmosphere. The venue of the entire reception, which extends from the main hall of the castle to the castle square outside, is too lively.
When crossing the square outside to the entrance of the castle hall, Xia Ping'an saw several familiar faces.
Clander City's police chief, Kevin, with his wife, was chatting with several men in the crowd. Mrs. Lawrence showed his beautiful figure to the fullest among a group of ladies. From the amazed tones around him, Xia Pingan could also feel the shock that Mrs. Lawrence brought to the female relatives among the guests.
Mrs. Lawrence looked young and beautiful after being treated with past toxins, much to the surprise of those who knew him well. Also surrounded by a group of ladies, there is the wife of Director Kevin. It's just that compared to Mrs. Lawrence, there are only two or three ladies beside Director Kevin's wife. It can also be seen that the woman's popularity does not seem to be very good.
Helena is one of the most striking presences in the hall, Helena is like the queen of tonight's reception, surrounded by a large group of ladies, the focal point of those women's circles, who are wearing all kinds of gorgeous dresses and costumes to the reception. The women who are gathered together give people the feeling that the flowers are full of flowers, competing for beauty.
From a distance, Xia Ping'an could hear the exclamations from the ladies.
"God, Helena, how did you guys become so young, what kind of magic is this..."
"Yeah, when I saw Mrs. Lawrence last month, Mrs. Lawrence's eyes were still a little wrinkled, but at this moment, Mrs. Lawrence is like ten years younger..."
"It's the same with Mrs. Zoe, she's suddenly rejuvenated..."
Needless to say, on this occasion, the women who had undergone the detoxification ritual suddenly became the most shining beings in the eyes of the women at the reception. For those women who came to the reception, seeing the familiar faces People become young and beautiful after not seeing them for a few days. It is conceivable that this kind of thing stimulates those women. No woman would not be envious and curious.
Looking at Helena looking forward to her appearance in the crowd, Xia Pingan probably understood the significance of this drink to Helena. Helena was going to use this drink to wipe out the whole circle of noble ladies in Brandy Province. But this is also a good thing for him. Looking at the women who were covered in jewels, Xia Ping'an seemed to see the world beads walking one by one.
Just as Xia Pingan was looking around, a lady in her 50s wearing a blue evening dress walked towards him and Mrs. Caitlin. When she saw Caitlin, she was surprised.
"Caitlin, I can't believe how you can be so beautiful and young, is this magic, look at your face, your skin is white and delicate, so much younger, just like Helena, I missed it what?" the woman asked in surprise.
"Tristi, it is indeed a magical ceremony. If you try it, you will become younger too!" Caitlin glanced at Xia Ping'an and replied.
"Oh, is there really a mysterious ritual?"
"Yes, you can ask Helena about the specifics of this ceremony!" There should be some kind of tacit understanding between Caitlin and Helena, so they did not directly introduce Xia Ping'an to this woman named Testi.
"Who is this handsome man?" Tristi turned her gaze to Xia Ping'an at this time, and looked at the two's dresses, with some ambiguity in her eyes.
"This is Xia Ping'an, my boyfriend tonight!" Caitlin said generously.
"Hello, Madam!" Xia Ping'an also greeted his potential client.
"Mr. Xia, if you don't mind, I need to borrow Caitlyn for a few minutes. Several ladies over there heard that Caitlin had been in danger before and have been worried about Caitlin's situation..." said.
Tristi led Caitlin towards a small circle not far away. Xia Pingan took a glass of champagne from a waiter's hand, and then walked to a corner of the hall by the window to drink quietly. Champagne, calmly watching this lively hall.
There are summoner's divine power fluctuations from all over the castle, but in this hall, Xia Ping'an saw many summoners wearing mage robes to participate in the reception. In this moment of effort, the lucky **** boy has already put this The inside and outside of the castle and the underground secret room have all wandered around - the secret escape route of the castle, as well as the secret vault and weapon store in the underground sub-castle of the Condera family, as well as the pair of guards who are cheating with the maid in the forage warehouse behind the castle, Xia Ping'an already knew all about it.
Xia Ping'an also saw Mr. Coin. Mr. Coin was wearing a black dress. He was chatting in a small circle of middle-aged and elderly gentlemen. The face of Mr. Coin at this moment was the same as when Xia Ping An first met him. Exactly the same.
Mr. Coin also saw Xia Ping'an, but gestured with his eyes from a distance, pretending not to know each other.
The champagne in her hand had just finished drinking, and the fragrant wind was blowing around her. The charming Helena had already come to Xia Ping'an. Helena also had two glasses of champagne in her hand, and handed Xia Ping'an a new one directly." I'm sorry, those ladies and gentlemen are too enthusiastic, after the reception, you may be busy for a while!"
Xia Pingan smiled, "This is the first good news I heard today!"
"Apart from Jiezhu, don't you really care about anything else!" Helena glanced at Xia Ping'an and teased, "Tonight, there are ladies from all over Brandy Province gathered here, isn't there anything you want to know? ?"
"For me, the cutest thing in the world is the Jiezhu, unless they can give me the Jiezhu, I'm only interested in getting to know them!"
"I really don't understand you men. I know Caitlin must have booked your first dance. I won't argue with her. Remember your second dance is mine!"
Xia Pingan smiled and was about to say something when suddenly, a figure walked over and said directly to Helena, "Hello, Miss Helena, I didn't expect us to meet again..."
The man who came over was a tall and handsome man with blond hair and deep eyes. The smile on his face was very charming. The dress on his body was also decorated with the ribbons of the nobles of the Ceylon Empire. The man looked at Helena with a frenzy. Direct, naked, and completely undisguised by the desire to conquer in his eyes, he almost regarded Xia Ping'an next to him as a transparent person.
"Baron Mayer, long time no see!" Helena's smile carried a sense of indifference and distance that only those who knew her well could taste. The man bowed slightly and seemed to want to give a kiss, but Helena just faced He raised his glass lightly, and then Helena looked directly at Xia Ping'an, as if not seeing the look of expectation on the man's face, and introduced to Xia Ping'an, "Baron Mayer is the head of the Ceylon Empire in Koland. The vice consul of the consulate, young and promising, and a powerful summoner! Baron Mayer, this is my personal advisor, Mr. Xia Pingan!"
Caitlin introduced the two of them. Until this time, that Baron Mayer set his eyes on Xia Ping'an, his eyes moved, and he asked condescendingly, "Mr. Xia is also a summoner?"
"Yes!" Xia Ping'an smiled harmlessly~www.mtlnovel.com~ nodded, "I just graduated from Andesburg!"
"Oh..." Baron Mayer looked at Xia Ping'an again, and smiled without a smile. His eyes were already full of contempt. How powerful a rookie who just graduated from Andesburg can be.
After the man said hello, he turned and left.
But Xia Ping'an looked at this man, but he already knew in his heart that the devil hiding in the Consulate General of the Ceylon Empire in Koland, the black hand behind the horror wax museum, was this man.
In fact, Xia Ping'an didn't have any evidence, and he didn't know what this man wanted so many human organs for, but his intuition had already told him, and warned him that it was this man, there was nothing wrong.
The back of this man's departure immediately overlapped with the figure of the mage who destroyed the cabin in Xia Ping'an's mind. Judging from his breath, this man was a fourth-level summoner. At this age, there is such a thing as His achievements are indeed something to be proud of, no wonder this man is defiant.
"I didn't expect the vice consul of the Ceylon Empire in Kelander to be so young. It's strange, I didn't know it before!" Xia Ping'an said to Helena with a smile.
"It's normal that you haven't seen him. Baron Mayer returned to China a few days ago to report on his duties. He wasn't in Keland. He just came back today, just in time for the reception!" Helena explained.
No wonder!
Helena's words once again confirmed the judgment in Xia Ping'an's heart. The so-called debriefing is actually just returning to the country to avoid the limelight. No wonder the summoner who was monitoring the Consulate General of the Ceylon Empire in Keland has not been found by Fu Shen Tongzi. Not at Clander.
This is really nowhere to go after breaking through the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
