In the depths of the splendid palace, two long tables are lined up side by side, and around the golden square table in front of the throne at the top of the stairs, dozens of attendants in formal robes continue to move through the palace to the melodious music of harps and flutes, serving delicious and exquisite dishes to the guests seated at the long tables.

Well, at least the guests except Ronin thought it was exquisite. As for Luo Ning herself, who appeared as "Roseni Wenrui", she really looked down on the food here.

"At most, it's the level of street stalls!" Luo Ning came to the above conclusion after comparing it with the delicious aromas rolling on the tip of his tongue in his previous life. So, he threw the half of the rotisserie patty sprinkled with crushed leaves and pepper in his hand on the plate, wiped his hands with the square towel around his neck, and licked the grease stains on the side of his mouth by the way!

"Whew!"

"Whew!"

"Oh!"

His action attracted the attention of many male guests, the pair of sexy red lips that glowed with business, and Luo Ning's slightly undulating chest curve, all made these people couldn't help but breathe heavier, and their eyes straightened. In all fairness, even in this palace full of beautiful women, the pretty face that Luo Ning is wearing at this time is enough to kill most people in terms of appearance and charm.

Neo, who was next to him, saw the eyes of the men around him who were about to burst into flames, and his heart was dark, and he never thought that he would have the opportunity to be the envy of other men.

"Luo Ning, this guy is really interesting! Today's banquet, Lao Tzu can be regarded as a long face!haha!"

He deliberately pretended to be intimate and leaned into Luo Ning's ear and asked, "Hey, why did you throw away the meatloaf! It was baked with the tender meat on the back of the finest firehorn ox, and sprinkled with the finest chrysanthemum grass and precious spices, and a small piece could be sold for a thousand gold coins!"

"That's it, a thousand gold coins?" Luo Ning scoffed, "Pull it down, just rush this fast-sandwiched raw beef, I think it's only five gold coins at most!

As he was talking, a sudden breath of heat came from behind his ears, and he immediately sneered, "If you dare to get so close to me again, I must use poison to make your work below never lift!"

Neo had seen his explosive alchemy, so the threat worked well, and Neo quickly sat down and stopped looking at Ronin.

At this moment, at the end of the long table between the two, Duke Logan applauded and signaled everyone to be quiet, then got up and said a bunch of beautiful words, leading the big guy to toast the protagonist of today's banquet, King Winston III of Morrowind.

Luo Ning looked up, only to see the middle-aged king with thin cheeks and messy stubble getting up in response, barely squeezing out a smile, and inviting everyone to eat and drink in a voice that was lacking in energy.

After a round of toasting, the king had just sat down, when he saw Duke Logan smile again: "Dear brother, if you want to make the big guy happy, eating and drinking is not enough!

Most of the guests were his subordinates or comrades. Although most of them didn't know Logan's intentions, they all agreed.

"Logan, you're right, I'm going to invite the group of dancers waiting outside the palace to come in and ask them to dance for everyone!"

Logan shook his head and smiled, "Brother, don't worry, I have a better idea!" He smiled as he walked to Luke Reinhardt, who was sitting nearby, and said, "Our Morrowind Kingdom has always admired bravery! Instead of watching the song and dance, it is better to watch two young and promising young people have a good time!

"His Royal Highness the Duke is right!", "Let's not watch singing and dancing today!, let's watch the young people do their tricks!", "Hurry up and let those two young people come out!"

The king looked at Archbishop Auerbach, who was sitting across from Logan, and when he saw him smile and nod his head in acquiescence, he also wanted to see who would end up fighting him, and nodded for Logan to continue.

Logan smiled indifferently, walked up to Luke Reinhardt, and said to everyone: "This young man is the eldest son of Earl Reinhardt, and the brother of 'Genius Randy' - Luke Reinhardt. Although he is only twenty-five years old this year, he has singled out twenty-nine high-level fighters with a dragon spear without defeat, and he is the most promising young master in the royal capital to become a legendary warrior!"

As soon as he said that, the crowd let out a cheer. Especially the female guests who were dressed up in fancy clothes, seeing Luke's red hair flowing like fire, blue eyes shining like stars, handsome facial features, and heroic spirit, they couldn't help but feel a little admiration for this young nobleman full of vitality, and they called his name and threw winks at him. When Luke heard these colorful voices, even if he knew that this was Duke Logan's plan, his heart was still very comfortable, and without waiting for Duke Logan to speak, he jumped and jumped directly below the king: "I am willing to fight to cheer everyone up!"

Archbishop Auerbach smiled kindly and applied a halo magic that increases his recovery and physical strength, "Blessing of the Light".

"Brave child, the light of the one God is with you!"

Duke Logan walked up to Princess Lena again, and stretched out his hand to Dugu, who was standing behind the princess and dressed up as Ronin: "This young man's name is Ronin Campbell. From White Moon City. Thanks to his protection, Princess Lena, who had gone out to play, was able to return safely! Mr. Ronin is not only skilled in swordsmanship, but also proficient in magic, and is a young magic swordsman who has been recognized by Marshal Gaiman!"

Dugu was defeated by Princess Lina, glanced at each other, silently walked to the field, and was stopped by Archbishop Auerbach halfway.

When he first mentioned Luo Ning, everyone didn't pay much attention to it. But after hearing "Marshal Gaiman", almost everyone was impressed by this quiet teenager like a mirror lake.

Seeing this, the real Luo Ning smiled and chewed his tongue in Neo's ear: "Tut! I didn't expect your Lao Tzu's name to be so useful!"

Neo chuckled, "Of course, but who the hell is that?"

Luo Ning smiled softly: "The secret! You'll know later! Huh, this feels a little wrong!"

He suddenly noticed that there was something strange in front of him, and it seemed that an invisible magic force field was secretly watching him. He followed the breath and looked around, only to see Archmage Auerbach change his hand position, one hand clenched into a fist and the other flared, forming the shape of an eye. A warm white light swayed down, sprinkled all over Dugu's body.

This scene made Luo Ning even more confused. He clearly felt that the other party was using the white light to test something, but he couldn't say why.

At the end of the long table, Archbishop Auerbach's brow furrowed imperceptibly, and then he fully relaxed.
