Chapter 36: The Human Collector
"Did you hear that? This time, will the Duchess of Titalia appear in person to give a speech? ”
"Is this true? Oh, my God! That's great~~~! I've heard of the Duke of Titaria as the number one beauty in my country, but I've never seen her face before. ”
"How could you not have seen it? Doesn't she appear on TV a lot? Although wearing huge sunglasses and a headscarf, I covered myself tightly ......"
"Hey~~~! Viscount Majet, are you really stupid or fake stupid, in this country, even a fool knows that those are just stand-ins for Lord Duke, otherwise, she has been assassinated by assassins at least four times just when she was on a live TV show~~~! The body/bomb/bomb explosion was shattered twice, the pistol was shot in the head at close range, and the poisonous dagger was stabbed in the heart once and died......"
"Nonsense, of course I know that the dead ones are stand-ins, I mean, the Duke is exposed quite often on TV, she doesn't always use a stand-in."
"It's a pity, that's the case, I can tell you very clearly, all the Duke who appears on TV is really a stand-in, in fact, if she hadn't heard that someone was going to give that thing to the Duke as her birthday gift this time, she wouldn't have held this birthday party, speaking of which, the Duke's preferences are really unique, and she would like such disgusting things, by the way, what gifts did you prepare for her?"
"Hahahahahaha......ha
…… There were similar topics being talked about everywhere in the crowd chatting around at the drinking party, these nobles were ordinary people, no different from the aristocratic humans in the real world, and it was a complete breeze for Rilin and Ilfan to hear their conversation.
"Is there any special purpose for the Duchess of Titalia to hold this midnight birthday party?" Rilin asked Ilfan, who was dancing slowly with him in his arms.
"Well, the reason for this reception was that someone was willing to present the Duchess with a collection of the family's treasures as a gift to celebrate her birthday. But the condition is to see the duchess with your own eyes, and inspired by this incident, there are more and more people who want to give gifts to the duchess, after all, everyone knows that when the eldest duke dies, Titalia will become the new female archduke of the Duchy of Hee Hee Faria, the highest power of the country, so there are more and more people who want to tie her up, and finally Titalia decided to hold this birthday party, which is actually a party to accept various birthday gifts, in fact, It will also determine the division of rights and interests in the future of the country......"
"So, what gifts do we have in store?" Lilin asked with interest.
"I have already thrown away the garbage that you prepared, and I have borrowed one thing from my father's private collection for this mission...... However, if I accidentally break this thing, I'm afraid that the mission reward I received will not be enough to compensate my father's ......."
"So precious? What is it? ”
“…… You'll know in a while......" Yi'er Fan looked at Lilin, but he didn't want to say more...... "Cut~~~!" ”
And at the same time that Lilin made a disdainful voice, a burst of music full of magical charm and unusually pleasant suddenly sounded...... "It's the duke, the duke is about to appear~~~!" ”
In the midst of everyone's exclamations, everyone stopped what they were doing and focused their eyes on the white marble staircase in the middle of the garden, witnessing a graceful and noble figure slowly walking down...... The pupils of those eyes ...... That lip...... It's as if the most beautiful jewels in the world are stacked with absolutely perfect facial features...... Plus the long, soft hair like the waves of the Black Sea...... And that alluring infinite crazy perfect curve...... This kind of unimaginable beauty already has the same level of deterrent power as a strategic weapon...... If you stare at her face for too long, even your soul will seem to be sucked in...... "In this way, this person is definitely our target today......" Li Lin, the "old nobleman" who stared at the future female archduke with obscene and ugly eyes, but in a calm and playful tone, he made a low voice that could only be heard by Yir fans.
"Why?" Looking at the Hakka young master who was staring at him with wide eyes and stunned, a rather boring thought suddenly rose in Li Lin's heart...... "The three-nil man in front of him won't still have a deep hidden natural stupidity attribute......"
"Do you think a woman with such charm would be a stand-in for someone else?"
"Oh...... That's what I said......" Ilfan nodded and said, "However, does this look have 'charm'?" ”
"......" Lilin was speechless for a while, thought for a while, and then suddenly asked, "What do you think of the 'Jita Laku' shape you used in the hunter exam?" ”
"Very manly......"
“……”
I see...... "Shall we do it now?" Rilin asked.
“…… Wait and see, among the current guests, there are a few hidden telekinesis masters mixed in, and if they delay at a critical moment, I am not fully sure that they will succeed at one time. And, aren't you stumped to see it? This woman is a master of telekinesis that is no less powerful than mine......"
"I've had a feeling before...... "Lilin nodded in agreement, "We seem to be in the range of someone else's 'circle'." ”
"Your feeling is not wrong...... Ilmi nodded and said softly: "It is the 'circle' released by the Duchess, the range is about two hundred meters, it is not simple......
"Circle" is not only the unique ultra-high-performance radar skill of the minder, but also the application technique of the basic skill "winding" and "refining", which expands the "mindfulness" that surrounds the body to the necessary range, and can clearly perceive the shape and action of the person or object within the range, but this skill is very difficult to master, even the "circle" of many masters is only a few meters away, and all of them are top masters who can reach more than 100 meters, and when the "circle" is opened, the strength of the mindful person will also be affected to a certain extent.
"Thank you so much for being here tonight for my birthday dance...... Thank you very much......"
Standing on the platform, the noble Duchess greeted the guests in her magnetic, charming voice. His tone is soft and elegant, but it is clear and audible, at first glance it sounds amiable, but when you feel it closely, there is a cold, repulsive emotion of rejection...... But even so, her words were rightfully celebrated by the crazy applause of everyone...... After a fixed aristocratic social etiquette, it was the number one event of the banquet tonight...... "Lord of Titalia, I'm Lord of Staffordshire, Lyle?"...... Viscount Balkeis, I heard that you like to collect the organs of the human body, especially the hands of the strong...... It just so happened that when I was watching the gladiator match in the 'Sky Arena' a few days ago, I was fortunate enough to see the battle of the two top masters, the magician Hisoka and the tiger bite fist, and even more fortunately, as the defeated side, and the dead Huashi Dourou had no relatives and no friends, so I spent a lot of money to buy the staff of the arena and successfully bought this thing, I think, you should like it......"
A young nobleman with luxurious clothes and a partial temperament, after taking a few steps forward, opened the lid of the beautifully packaged box, and in this low-temperature fresh-keeping box, it contained a pair of white and powerful male hands, and on the back of the lid, there was also a photo of a handsome man with long hair and some text, which should be a brief introduction to the man named Huashi Doulang and his life...... And after the first man to present the treasure was presented, the attitude among the guests was immediately divided into two kinds, one was disdainful ridicule, and the other was a cower of shame. Obviously, this one named Lyle? The gifts offered by Viscount Balkiis should have been of the average level among the guests.
However, a little surprisingly, I didn't expect that Tietalia, a super beauty full of top charm, turned out to be a super alternative "human body collection" ...... "Huashi Doulang...... Well, I've heard of this man, he seems to be more famous in the Sky Arena, by the way, his 'Tiger Bite Fist' seems to be very powerful......" The Duchess showed a charming smile on her face that made her soul tremble, I saw her beckoning gently, and a pair of arms contained in the cryogenic crisper box actually flew up on their own with space, like a pair of floating aerial vehicles, and flew straight in front of the Duchess, Tietalia looked at it closely, with a slight smile on her face, This pair of arms disappeared out of thin air in the next moment, and I don't know where she received it, but after revealing this hand, the information that the Duchess of Titaria is the top master of cultivation ability has been confirmed...... Li Lin looked at the Yi Er fan beside him, although he couldn't see any emotional fluctuations on his standard three-nothing face, Li Lin could still feel that beating the eldest son of the Hakka family was by no means as easy as it seemed......
