Chapter 31: The Dinner Party (I) "Magic Tricks? ”

Pacino frowned after listening to the detailed report brought by his subordinates.

"Yes, at midnight on the second day of the Killer's appearance, Johnny led the team to encounter the Murderer, and when the team was destroyed, it was the Wizard who helped out and saved Johnny and killed the monster."

This information has been repeatedly confirmed by professionals.

"Who's Johnny?"

"It's the swordsman of the City Guard, my lord."

"Is that him? Oh... Suddenly remembered that a few days ago, the people of the Mercenary Association asked him for verification, by the way, the Mercenary Association has not handed over the bounty to others, although no one cares and no one asks, but should the efficiency of the association be a little more numb? Hurry up and get things confirmed. ”

As the lord of Camorra, Pacino has to deal with a large amount of literature every day, where can he have the leisure time to get to know everyone in the city guards? Perhaps more than ten years ago, swordsmanship was a rare profession worthy of respect, but this qiē has changed with the academic system, and magic is no longer a mysterious existence high above.

"If those alchemists knew about the magic guide's clever cunning, I'm afraid they would be entangled."

"The owner of the library has made such a big move, how dare the Alchemy Society act rashly."

"You say, could that man be human?"

"We're not sure, my lord, but we have our observations for you to look at."

Pacino took Wen Jiàn and waved his hand to let the subordinates leave, dealing with a day's government affairs and thinking about the dinner party is really a headache.

In this world where the strong stand at the apex, any lord of any side has to walk on thin ice and treat all forces carefully, and the slightest carelessness will cause unexpected losses.

Once bitten by a dragon spray for ten years, the rhythm of being afraid of strangers.

"You send someone to pay more attention, the curator will notify me immediately when he comes, and I will greet him personally."

The subordinates who got the order quickly exited the room, Pacino opened the text and took a cursory look, the content on it was nothing more than the actual deeds about Mephis's whereabouts, generally looking for personal information in a big city is not a simple job, fortunately, Mephis is high-profile enough to make such a big move, and he did not deliberately hide anything, except that he was not so easy to approach in the operation, all kinds of events showed that he had good intentions.

First appeared in the direction of the desert, through the desert this young man rescued dozens of people along the way, came to the city and was involved in the murder incident, and then quickly connected with the orphanage, and created a huge library overnight, and the magic guide Miss Karakuri used violence to expel those noisy people.

And in a short period of time, the mysterious curator was not settled, because the assassin behind the scenes entered the underground waterway and eliminated the mysterious python that had been entrenched there for many years, which surprised Pacino that the elusive and dangerous python did not succeed in encircling and suppressing even if he mobilized the army.

Now the whole city is probably staring at Mephis's movements, and at the same time staring at the time when the library is open to the public, the temptation of knowledge is too great, even if it is a part-time job, as long as you can get permission to learn magical knowledge, countless people will sharpen their heads and drill into the library, even if it is to act as a free laborer, it doesn't matter, or even to attract Mephis to a line, using the library to obtain more benefits.

Pacino didn't care about the position of the mysterious curator, as long as it was a genuine library, its existence was beneficial to the city, and the only thing he was afraid of was that the other party had the ability to quietly style large-scale magic in the city, and it was no less threatening than the sword of Damocles.

I really want to meet this young man as much as possible, and many times I can get the information I want by talking to him closely.

Pacino put the text in order, fell into deep thought, and thought of his daughter...... Fett is a genius magical girl who stepped into the Lingge position at a young age, and it is a good choice for her to observe, but why does it feel like a meat bun beating a dog?

The news that Mephis would attend the dinner party is not a secret, he himself didn't expect this news to attract the attention of several large organizations, before the dinner, he still looked at the magic book comfortably, I'm afraid no one thought that the curator who was speculated by all kinds was a newcomer who had been learning magic for less than a week, and who would believe it?

"Whatever I do, it's going to be secretive and low-key."

"This is not good, if Lord Mephis is looked down upon, it is a loss of reputation, and it must not be disgraced to the Demon Academy, even if the magic supply of this library is no longer maintained, those people must be taught a lesson!"

Hervier seemed to have misunderstood something, and Mephis wouldn't have corrected it.

Considering that he would meet all kinds of bigwigs at the dinner, Mephis flashed the idea of running softly for a few seconds, and then thought about what he was afraid of when he could flip through a library of books at any time? To have a theory, to have a result, to practice to have practice, the experience of the game era to use unbelief, fool and not lame.

"There's not a lot of pressure on my side, but you're making me feel embarrassed."

"Why!?"

"I'm afraid you'll hit someone."

At the dinner, it was inevitable to meet people from the Alchemy Association, people who have been in contact with alchemy machinery for many years must have studied magic tricks, and it is not difficult to recognize Hervier, plus Snod's storage zài may recognize him as soon as they meet, with Mephis's understanding of the Alchemy Association, people will ask to 'manage' Hervier to monitor it to prevent the occurrence of 'danger',

There is no guarantee that Hevill will be angered by saying something that should not be said, in case Hevier loses his temper and the dinner party becomes an all-out martial ...... That's a lot of fun.

The night was too noisy and enthusiastic, and there was too much curiosity and suspicion in the air, and some ups and downs of caution in the bottom of their hearts, and the nobles occasionally got a little tired of it.

Look, there's another uncontrollable look.

Well, many of the nobles who were content with pleasure said that those things had nothing to do with them, and that they were just coming to the dinner party to eat and drink.

The dinner party is for the nobles to exchange feelings and enjoy it, everyone sits down to eat something and talk about business dealings, listen to a few beautiful symphonies, look for beautiful women to accompany the dance floor, and if you are lucky, continue to meet in the middle of the night to connect with feelings, in general, the dinner is a kind of enjoyment.

Because of Mephis, there were a lot of alchemists and magicians coming to the dinner tonight.

"It's been a long time since I've been to a dinner party, and now it's much bigger than before, can you see that young man?"

"I shouldn't have come yet, just wait a little longer."

Bazako slowly moved along with the crowd, and from time to time business partners came to greet him, the president of the Camorra Alchemy Society, this identity alone was enough weight, and Bazaco was not followed by his students, but Snod, in order to find Mephistopheles with him.

"I don't like aristocratic dinners, it's a waste of time, and if it weren't for confirming the news of the magic channel's telekinesis, I wouldn't have set foot here at all."

Alchemists need to keep researching new technologies, the Camorra Association has developed so far, faintly the same scale as the Imperial Capital Alchemy Association, and it is expected to catch up if it continues to develop, who doesn't like to turn over as a slave and be a master?

The technology provided by Karakuri is key.

At this time, Bazako looked in the other direction, where an old mage got down from the carriage, the deepest impression was the gray beard, in terms of age, this old man may be called the oldest person in Camorra City, and remember that the old man had a good conversation with this old man when he was reincarnated, and now Bazako is also old, this old mage is still the same as he was back then, and the power of magic is really enviable.

Nobles rarely go out without a carriage, high-profile travel eager to show off their identity to the world, even low-key mages will look for a means of transportation, these people may not think that the protagonist they are really waiting for is on foot, and quietly walked in from an inconspicuous place.

Soon, the noisy dinner party fell silent with the appearance of Pacino, and the nobles all looked at the lord in unison, followed his footsteps all the way forward, and watched in amazement as the lord greeted the two young faces.

At this moment, Mephis's identity was completely recognized, and the people who controlled the magic guide book around him had no one else except the library director whose identity was confusing, and the wealth he carried with him alone was enough for ordinary magicians to struggle for hundreds of years, and if he was unlucky, he might not get a single one.

"Hello, Mr. Mephis, I'm Pacino. Tystravin, what you have done in the orphanage these two days is truly astonishing, I have never heard of such a large library being completed overnight, I have always wanted to meet with the director, I know that it is only now that I have my wish, please enjoy the banquet tonight, I hope it will leave you with wonderful memories. ”

"Mr. Pacino is so polite, it is my honor to be invited by you, the museum has been busy recently, please forgive me for the lack of etiquette."

When Pacino heard the news he wanted, he was taken aback despite the preparations in advance, secretly observing Mephis's every move, the two of them who met for the first time had a friendly conversation, rarely mentioning the library, more like relatives who had not seen each other for many years, Pacino mainly introduced some famous and surnamed people to Mephis, and there were many people who were interested in Mephis, and those people would come over to talk one after another.

There's not a lot of red tape at dinner parties, and it's very useful when dealing with NPCs in the game, which can effectively improve favorability, and any veteran player will look like it, and Mephis is no exception, but he specifically chose ancient etiquette to make himself look much taller.

Nobles who have no historical background don't notice those details at all, and those who can interpret the information from them must be highly knowledgeable figures, Pacino guesses the true identity of Mephis, although it is not like the historical Demon Dao family, but it is closer to the immortal species that has lived for hundreds of years and is still young, is it a human being? This information is not important at all, just ask to take a seat to show respect.

The library is a real store, and the value of the books in it can be confirmed quickly, and in the future, Mephis's store must be a big man who cannot be ignored in the city of Camorra, and there is nothing wrong with making friends now, as for whether he is towards Analos or Melnia, it does not matter at all.

When the dinner began, Bazako couldn't wait to get up and walk to Mephis, but someone had preceded him.

"Hello, Mr. Mephis, I'm Salman, the mage of the Emerald Tower. Nikode. ”

"Hello, Mr. Salman."

The two sides gave each other mage etiquette and received each other's kindness, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed.

"I would like to invite Mr. Mephis to the Emerald Tower to exchange magical knowledge."

"There are arrangements to go out in the near future, I'm afraid I won't have time to go to the Emerald Tower until next month."

Salman waved his hand to show that he didn't care.

"It's good that you're here, it's rare to see the same kind nowadays, even if you can sit together and have a cup of tea, it's still a long time."

Most of the Lingge in the body of the magician can prolong life and slow down aging, but the mage is also divided into three hundred and sixty-nine, and the form of the Lingge is different, most of the Lingge people live for three or four hundred years to the top, and only those who step into the godhead position with half a step have the opportunity to live for thousands of years and peep into eternity.

It takes time to update knowledge, and mages can't make achievements even if they bury their heads in books all day, and time is a strange thing that must be used well to cultivate the most ideal fruit.

Others don't ask, Mephis doesn't explain, others ask, Mephis said in passing, Salman briefly talked about the past history, Mephiss answered fluently, including the details are explained in place, Salman is satisfied, expressing envy for Mephis's ability to maintain his youth.

Mephis managed to break into the Immortals and became part of the Traitor.
