268. The Four Horsemen of Hillingborough
Blaney puts the helmet on his head and activates the autonomic magic golem to set up. In a short time, the self-discipline magic puppet automatically transformed into Blaney's appearance. The two stand together, whether it is plastic surgery or words and deeds, they are the same, as if they are carved out of the same mold. One of the Blaneys began to methodically tidy up the shopping scattered around the room; The other put away the scrolls and gold cards in the box, opened the closet and took out the remains of a magic puppet and threw it inside, then took off the storage ring in his hand and threw it to Blaney, who was tidying up the room, and put the cloak on his body, squatted in the corner near the door, and never moved again. The effect of the cloak of concealment soon became apparent, merging her with the environment, and it was no longer noticeable that there was still a person crouching here.
"Miss Blaney, there's a guest coming." The voice of a guard can be heard over the communicator.
"Who's that?"
"It was an emissary sent by the 'Supreme Council of the Science and Technology Alliance', saying that he had come to complete the deal."
"Let him in." Blaney stopped what he was doing, walked briskly to his desk and sat down, opening the holographic newsboard and pretending to be reading the news. This is the negotiation technique that Deming taught her, so that the opponent cannot see her true thoughts, and then gain an advantage in negotiation.
The door was opened, and three people, a man and a woman, came in.
Blaney's gaze moved away from the holographic projection, and after a glance at the person, he couldn't pretend to be able to put it down, quickly stood up and walked around the table to greet him, and greeted him with a look of surprise: "Amilia, Wren, Mame, why are you?" I didn't expect the Four Horsemen of Chillingborough to reunite here today, and I didn't expect you to become the ambassadors of the supreme authority of the 'Tech Faction', I'm really happy for you! ”
"Yes, it's been ten years since we graduated from the Hillingborer Military Academy, the highest institution of the 'Tech Faction', and I didn't expect to meet here again, fate is really a wonderful thing!" Emilia walked quickly in front of Blaney, stretched out her hands and grabbed Blaney's hand tightly, and said excitedly.
Emilia and Blaney are both from Tenopura, one of the three beauties of Tenopura, and they also have an extremely prominent status, the difference is that Emilia is a princess of the royal family, and there is a golden scale that symbolizes the authority of the royal family in the middle of her forehead. Because the two were similar in all respects, they were sisters and inseparable during their studies at Hillingborough, and their relationship was so good that they were like sisters, and they were praised by the students of the academy as "the Goen Sochi of Tenopura" (Goen Sochi - and the meaning of double lotus). And because the two of them have excellent academic performance with Wren from the Austrian Star Alliance and Mame from the Republic of the Cyber System, they are also known as the Four Horsemen of Chillingborough.
"We're here for business, so we'll talk about the whispers between you sisters later." Wren hurriedly interrupted the girls' happy time.
The three of them were a little embarrassed to stop gossiping about interesting things in their lives after graduation, adjusted their appearance and mood, and each took two steps back to stand relatively still.
Blaney coughed, stretched out his hand and made an inviting gesture and said, "Everyone is a guest from afar, please take a seat." ”
After the four of them sat down on the chairs in the reception room, Wren, as the chief ambassador of the "Supreme Council of the Science and Technology Alliance", spoke first: "The three of us came here this time to complete the transaction between the planet and the 'Explorer No. 1' with Mr. Demingdao, I wonder if it is convenient now?" ”
"I, Blaney, as Mr. Deming's plenipotentiary, can trade with you at any time."
Wren took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Then let's start!" ”
As he spoke, he took out a scroll and held it in his hand, Mame took out a palm-sized brocade box, and Emilia took out another scroll. They unfolded these items to Blaney to see, and it turned out that these three items were the hereditary lord of Ming Daoxing, the official seal representing the lordship, and the contract of conditional and gratuitous assistance from the "tech faction".
After reading it, Blaney also took a deep breath, forcibly calmed down his heartbeat, stood up and walked in the direction of the wardrobe, and said, "Please wait a minute......
Blaney opened the closet, took out the remains of the magic puppet that he had just thrown in, turned back to his position, handed it to Wren and said, "This is the remains of the magic puppet from this transaction, you can check it now." ”
The three of them glanced at each other, but none of them reached out to pick up the magic puppet, and there was even a flash of fear in their eyes.
"Do you think this magic golem will explode too?" Blaney glanced at the smoke rising in the distance through the window, sighed and said, "Don't worry, that exploding magic puppet is a fake that Mr. Demingdao specially mailed in order to prevent some people from trying to empty the white wolf and intercept his mailing package. The one I have on hand is the real thing. If it were to explode, wouldn't I be killed too? He wouldn't do that kind of thing. ”
"It sounds like you trust the Terran named Demingdao, you can't be ......" Emilia was the first to reach for the remains of the magic golem out of trust in her sisters, half-jokingly saying intimate things that only sisters would say.
Blaney's face turned a little blue, and instead of answering Emilia's question, he shoved the magic golem in his hand into her arms and quickly sat back in his place.
Blaney's expression and movements speak for themselves. The three of them glanced at each other again, and couldn't help but sigh secretly and get busy. Wren is tasked with checking the authenticity of the remains of the magic puppet, and Mamme assists him with his work, and Emilia quickly takes Wren's place and gets to Blaney's side to start gossiping.
"Blaney, I didn't expect you to be the first of our three beauties in Tenople. Tell me what kind of person is that Demingdao, and what stage have you reached? ”
"He had a strong physique, a brilliant mind, an extraordinary bearing, and was born to do great things. He is calm and calm, usually humorous, and listens to his friends of the same race say that his appearance is also a handsome and chic existence among the human race......" As he spoke, Blaney's eyes began to blur.
"Really, how can there be such a perfect person in this world? I don't believe it! Emilia asked, "How does he compare to Wren?" ”
"The two are not on the same level at all, there is no comparison...... "Blaney turned his head to look at the busy Wren, and a complex expression similar to disdain, disappointment, and even reluctance appeared on his face.
"Hey, you're over! Am I that bad? Wren raised his head dissatisfiedly and complained.
"It's not that I belittle you, your abilities are not as good as mine, you rely on your country's high and new technology, so you are a little bit stronger than me in terms of combat effectiveness. But you know what, don't say I'm fighting with him, even if I fight with his girlfriends, I'm still going to be beaten. Blaney recalled wistfully, "Have you ever seen an instantaneous fourth-order magic?" Moreover, the left and right hands release two different fourth-order magic at the same time. ”
"Really?" This time, the three of them exclaimed in unison.
"This is still the strength of Demingdao's girlfriends, and he himself has reached the realm of a magister who can fuse magic. If I say he's only twenty years old, you won't believe him. Blaney spoke again in astonishment.
"If it were those 'tentacle monsters' of the Predas Star Empire, if I could reach this level at the age of twenty, I would still be able to compare......" Wren said a little unconvinced.
"You can save it! The life span of the Pridas is only fifty years at most, and if you can live to the age of forty, you already want to live a long life, and twenty years old is equivalent to your father's age, so what's so strange that you can reach this level when you reach your father's age? And twenty years old is equivalent to a little older than me, and he has only just been exposed to magic knowledge for more than a month, how can you compare with him? Blaney began to pour cold water on Wren.
"Monsters?" Emilia couldn't help but utter such a word.
"'God,' I guess it......," Blaney burst out of his mouth with a very religious word.
"I think you're fascinated by him, how can anyone be so exaggerated!" The three of them naturally didn't believe it, and they all thought that Blaney was a lover, and they all beautified their sweethearts to the extreme.
"If you had seen his abilities with your own eyes, you wouldn't have been so skeptical." Blaney thought to himself, but said nothing more. She knew that people who had not been in contact with Deming Dao would never believe that he had this ability, so why bother talking about it for those who didn't believe in her?
"Wait, what did you just say? Does he have a girlfriend? And what more than one looks? Emilia suddenly noticed the important information that she had just overlooked, "You are the eldest lady of the Lexar family, one of the top unmarried women in the world of Predas who combines wisdom, beauty, power, and money, how can you have the idea of sharing a man with other women?" ”
"No, I don't mind." Blaney replied in seconds: "It's not just me, but my grandfather also encouraged me to take the initiative to socialize with him. The vast majority of the children of our royal family and nobles serve the interests of the country and the family, and even the marriage has been arranged by the elders. Just like the Angsi of Igo, isn't that kind of unlearned and unskilled gentleman relying on the power of his family to try to marry our family? I have figured it out, instead of marrying someone I don't love in the future, it is better to fall in love vigorously and love what I love! ”
"Even Lord Duke Adam encouraged you to pursue him?" Emilia's eyes widened again, and she let out some incredulous exclamations.
"Yes......" Blaney replied. Her voice was very long, as if she was sighing and sighing, and a lonely look suddenly appeared on her face. She didn't say a word, and her grandfather was also murderous because he was afraid of this man's perverted abilities.
The three Wren didn't know what Blaney was thinking, but when she was depressed because she was jealous of the other women, and after they said a few words of comfort, the atmosphere in the room seemed to be cold.
