Chapter 57: A Glamorous Scene
The day of the Seven-Kingdom Alliance is getting closer, and the tension in the imperial capital continues unabated.
Arthur and the others have not been out of the inn these days, making final preparations for the upcoming Imperial Elite Academy Competition.
After dusk, Arthur said hello to Professor Ogu and snuck out of the inn by himself.
Arthur walked some distance and got into a normal beast cart around the corner. Joan, who had changed into a civilian robe in the car, was looking at Arthur with a smile.
"Why are you so mysterious?"
"Didn't you help get back the last time McGinn lost the goods? β
"Why do you insist that I come by myself, how nice would it be to bring Huey and Golly with you?" asked Arthur, a little puzzled.
Joan smiled, "Today's place to eat is not for women and orcs. β
Joan smiled at Arthur's half-understood, but his interest was immediately reduced by half, and he said helplessly: "I now regret that I didn't bring Moral, only he can play with you in this regard." β
Joan just smirked and didn't take Arthur's words at all.
The beast cart sped all the way, and finally stopped at a relatively remote street in the South City Commercial Street, and Joan pulled Arthur out of the car and walked.
In the prosperous Nancheng business district, there are only seven or eight restaurants and shops on this street, and there are few pedestrians on the street.
Joan led Arthur into a tavern with an old faΓ§ade in the middle of the street. It was dinner time, and there was not a single guest in the tavern lobby empty except for the young man who greeted the guest at the door and the gentleman who kept the account behind the counter.
"What do you want to eat?" the guy greeted warmly.
"It was Mr. McKinn who asked us to come. Joan replied very naturally.
"Then you come with me. The young man led Joan and Arthur straight to the back door of the tavern.
Walking out the back door is the backyard of the tavern, and then pushing open the small door of the backyard, inside are guarded by four tall orc slave warriors.
It was only after the orc slave level that the hotel revealed its true face, a huge garden with small corridors and winding paths. Quiet private rooms have been built around the garden.
A beautiful girl with a welcome escort leads Joan and Arthur into the private room that McGinn has booked.
In addition to McGinn, there was another young man named Miller in the private room, Arthur had seen before, the one who fought with Yergis with Joan and McGinn on Tianxiang Street.
Because of the experience of fighting together twice and beating Yeggis twice, McGinn was already very familiar with Arthur, and directly beckoned Arthur to take a seat.
As soon as a few people sat down, before the wine and food were served, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a row of lightly dressed elf and orc women entered.
Arthur's eyes immediately widened, and the row of women in front of him included fox clan, ocelot clan, rabbit clan, elf clan and even a half-elf, all of them with enchanting postures and charming eyes, and they looked like they were being picked by anyone.
McGinn laughed on the side and said, "It's not interesting for a few of us big men to drink together, find a few interracial women to accompany the wine, and choose one for each person." Arthur, you are the guest, you come first. β
Arthur blushed and waved his hand repeatedly, "Come on, I'll forget it." β
"Brother Arthur is not satisfied with these, do you like heavy tastes? There are dwarven women in this store, I am afraid that Brother Arthur will not accept it, so I will not let the store arrange it, so I will call her over. McGinn asked thoughtfully.
The image of Turutuk, a red-nosed and bearded dwarf, instantly appeared in Arthur's mind, and Arthur was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "No, no, these are good!"
McGinn and Joan laughed.
Joan knew that Arthur was shy about girls, so she ordered an elf girl to accompany him, and a bunny girl herself. McGinn himself ordered a delicate fox woman, and Miller ordered the half-elf girl to accompany the wine.
Looking at the petite elf girl Arthur next to him, he was still a little cramped at first, and the wine and food were served, and after a few glasses of wine in a row, the atmosphere on the table began to liven up.
The four of them were all young people, and McGinn and Miller grew up in Arrantis, and some of the anecdotes of the imperial capital and the charm of the rich and aristocratic people were casually ridiculed through the wine, and the conversation at the wine table was very hearty.
Arthur, who was frequented by Tony and Angus when he was a teenager, liked this atmosphere very much, and soon became five or six points drunk, and even held the little hand of the elf girl next to him at some point.
Pushing the glass and changing the lamp, calling the brother and brother, the time on the wine table flies by, and before you know it, several people have drunk too much.
"No one is allowed to leave today, I have arranged a room in the back, and tonight we are going to conquer the alien race - women!" McGin's tongue was already curling, and as he spoke, a pair of hands had begun to grope in the clothes of the fox woman beside him.
Arthur staggered to his feet.
"Arthur, you are not allowed to run!
Arthur's face was flushed with drinking, and he also smirked, "Toilet, I'll go to the toilet." β
The elf girl beside Arthur hurriedly helped him out.
Walk through the hallway and down the garden path, where the pub's toilet is built behind a rockery in the corner.
The elf girl helped Arthur turn the rockery, and a dazzling white light suddenly lit up in front of Arthur's eyes.
Arthur subconsciously raised his hands to cover his eyes, and his body stepped back. But because of drunkenness, the movement of the body backwards staggered and slow.
With a soft shout, a series of balls of light exploded in Arthur's chest.
The elven girl who was holding Arthur next to her sat down on the ground in fright, and before she could scream, a ball of light completely covered her, and she couldn't make a sound as if she was suffocating.
Arthur was blown up and lay on his back on the ground, and at this moment his mind really realized that he had been attacked. Arthur tried to roll over and stand up immediately, but the drunkenness and the explosion of the light just now made him unable to move.
Then he kicked Arthur in the lower abdomen, and Arthur curled up and was kicked out four or five meters away.
A large hand leaned over and grabbed Arthur by the collar and lifted him up, revealing a strange man's face in Arthur's eyes.
Arthur swung his left hand towards the man's neck as he was picked up, holding the wolf's kiss blue dagger in his hand.
"Can you still resist?" the man's neck tilted back and flashed Arthur's knife, and his left hand instantly grabbed Arthur's wrist holding the knife and slammed it back.
With a scream, Arthur's wrist was nearly broken.
The man followed with another punch to Arthur's face, and Arthur became dizzy.
In the second and third punches, the man slammed into Arthur's head several times in succession until Arthur was completely unconscious.
"Halo!" Seven circles of light completely encircled Arthur's body from head to toe.
"Hurry up and take him away, walk through the wall. β
"What about the guards and this elf?"
"Leave them alone, no one will dare to find them. β
After a few hurried conversations, the three figures jumped out of the backyard wall of the garden with Arthur in tow.
In the private room, Joan pushed McGin, who had almost completely pierced her head into the fox woman's chest, "Did you just see the white light outside?"
"Maybe someone is setting off magic fireworks?" replied McGinn without looking up.
"I'm going to see Arthur, that guy won't fall into the toilet, will he?" Joan staggered to her feet.
