067 Frankenstein's Secret Meeting (3rd Watch)
At the same time, the 32-storey rooftop restaurant of the Hou Ye's Mansion is one kilometer away in a straight line, in a private room.
Jiang Chenglu wore big-framed glasses that looked silly and bulky, lowered his head, and silently ate the Itari noodles in front of him.
He doesn't like to talk to strangers very much, so the negotiation is left to his partner Gao Ning.
Gao Ning is as tall as Jiangcheng Road, but he is relatively strong, and sitting side by side with him, he feels that Jiangcheng Road is very slender - in fact, this is a pure parallax problem.
"Wow, are you mistaken? That's the Hou Ye's Mansion! Gao Ning looked at the client and pointed with his thumb to the outside of the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the private room.
As the highest-class private room of a high-end restaurant, the view from the window is naturally extraordinary. Through the window, you can clearly see the bamboo river that winds through the north side of the city, and in the distance are rows of buildings.
It's not night yet, and the brilliant neon lights aren't lit up, but the view is still refreshing.
Gao Ning's thumb was pointing to a lonely building in the corner of the window's vision.
It was Ma Zili's Hou Ye's Mansion.
In order to highlight the dignity of the owner, the mansions of famous families will generally be built on the outskirts of the city, and the surrounding land will be bought by the way, so that there will not be other high-rise buildings and mansions "stealing the limelight".
The same is true of the Hou Yefu, which looks like a lamb that has fallen behind from the flock.
However, Ma Hou Ye has been losing money in recent years, and the Hou Ye Mansion has not been expanded for a long time, and it is said that the current funds of the Hou Ye Mansion are not even able to gather the materials for his own organization of magic enhancements.
This Hou Ye Mansion, which has not been expanded for many years, is thrown into the middle of the buildings in the center of Guanhai Mansion that have been "growing taller" and becoming more gorgeous every year, and Hou Ye's face will indeed be a little dangerous.
Gao Ning pointed to such a Hou Ye Mansion and questioned the client again: "Do you know how many mechanisms, how many enchantments, how many automatic puppets and golems will be waiting for us inside?" You want us to sneak into this thing? ”
The client nodded.
"You at least give us time to prepare, ask us to sneak in in two days, and we will die."
"Didn't I just say that when I introduced the background? Your mission is to make contact with this new champion. The client calmly picked up the cola and took a sip, and continued, "Now that building is just a well-fortified Hou Ye's mansion, you are going to go to a week, and maybe it will become the workshop of the master of the new school." If you want to try to sneak in at that time, I don't have a problem. ”
Gao Ning put away his thumb and pointed at the Hou Yefu: "Yes." However, since the task is only to contact Taidou and release the goodwill of the professors' joint meeting, then it is enough to pull a banner directly outside the Hou Ye's mansion. The entire structure of the whole untraceable source was quietly released and the banner was pulled, and it was over. ”
"You're talking about a solution." The client didn't complain about Gao Ning's whimsy, but explained seriously, "But we are not sure of Taidou's intentions, and we don't know if he wants to make full use of the ideas of the high-level mages and act in a low-key manner." So we can't use such a high-profile approach. ”
Gao Ning sighed: "Okay, I understand." Anyway, we just need to sneak in and put the greeting letter prepared by the joint meeting where the titans can see it, right? What's that agent of his, Marsha? ”
"Yes, the son of the Marquis Ma, the heir of the Marquis Mansion."
At this time, Jiang Chenglu, who had been eating silently, suddenly asked: "That Ma Sha, is he also a member of the New School?" ”
"No, that's not clear." The client shook his head, "The joint meeting checked the circulation of the implants in Guanhai, and we know that the former commander of the witcher, who had a close contact with the little marquis, once bought an implant from the Freudian school. ”
Gao Ning scolded.
"Damn, I hate these dirty people. Why don't you just do nothing and observe for a while? ”
The client shook his head: "We need to find out Taidou's intentions first, in case he wants to carry out some terrible experiment on a huge scale, we have to start withdrawing from Guanhai Mansion." ”
"That's right. However, if they want to conduct this kind of experiment, they will definitely not tell us for the sake of secrecy, or they will just start withdrawing. ”
The client looked at Gao Ning, the corners of his mouth twitching.
At this time, Jiang Chenglu spoke: "Forget it, we usually have a lot of help from the joint meeting of professors, so let's sneak in, it's quite challenging, isn't it?" That's how much fun it is. ”
"You know, what I regret most is teaming up with you freak who likes challenges." Gao Ning shook his head, "Okay then, let's sneak in and take a look in the next two days, and say hello to Taidou's servants." ”
"Good. If you are discovered, you can use the retreat of the Joint Council. ”
As he spoke, the client put a mobile phone on the table and pushed it towards Gao Ning across the table.
Gao Ning pressed and held down the phone that slid over.
"The rewards are all stored in the phone with storage spells. How to use the retreat channel is also written on the phone, but with a time lock, and it will not be opened until two days later. Don't try to unlock it yourself, it will cause your phone to explode. ”
"Understood, understood, it's all the same as before." Gao Ning waved his hand, tucked his phone into his pocket, and began to eat.
The client stood up directly, turned around and went out, without any words of goodbye, as if they had formed a tacit understanding: when the matter is negotiated, don't waste time and disperse quickly.
As soon as the client left, Jiang Chenglu spoke: "New school, I'm a little excited, I want to know about their theoretical system. ”
Gao Ning: "Don't be like this, you have to understand the theories of each school, and sooner or later you will blow yourself up." I'm your roommate, and I don't want to be dragged down by you. ”
"You also often do experiments, the possibility of false explosions is still greater than you."
"My experiments are safe."
The two Frankensteins, not caring that it was a restaurant, a public place, talked about these taboo contents without any scruples.
Suddenly, the light of a small device placed on the table turned on, and Gao Ning immediately pressed the button on the device, so the force field that blocked the sound disappeared, and the words in Gao Ning's mouth also switched seamlessly: "I have a brilliant idea, this new spell will definitely pass the review of the mage conference and become an official spell!" ”
"You just blow it, you haven't had a spell pass the review in five years." Jiangcheng Road also switched seamlessly, complaining.
"This time it will work! If it doesn't work, it has to work! Otherwise, my sponsors will have to divest. ”
As he said this, the door opened, and the waiter pushed a small cart with steaming dishes.
In the waiter's opinion, these two young men should be the new archmage, who are working hard to develop spells, trying to leave their own traces on the spell list.
Many of the customers who come to eat at this restaurant are like this.
No, it should be said that who can get the title of archmage, who doesn't want to leave their own traces on the spell list, so that in a sense, he is on a par with those great predecessors: Yofu Ma, Bigby, Tamson ......
So the waiter has long been surprised.
He skillfully cast a spell to put everything on the table and then use the spell to manipulate the props and begin to put the finishing touches on the dish.
He had no idea that the real desire of these two in front of him was to climb new heights of science – or to become a stepping stone to human progress in a magnificent virtual explosion.
