Chapter 0165: Golden Shining

Now that he knew that this was the palace, Luo Xiaotian couldn't help but take a closer look at the surrounding environment.

From this vantage point, one can only see the square in front of the palace, and the towering walls, also made of white masonry, and the whole palace complex is a little farther away from here, high and low, with golden triangular flags fluttering above the red spires.

"Mr. Magician, from here you will find the Central Avenue and the First Avenue, and follow the First Avenue all the way east to the Wizards' Guild. ”

Before you know it, you have come to the end of this square, perhaps because of safety reasons, there are no plants planted around the square, under the palace wall.

Here is a small gate on the side, where a group of soldiers who are also brightly armored are stationed.

After Luo Xiaotian thanked the maid before, he left the square and palace walls that contained oppressive power and solemnity.

......

"Dad, I'm hungry. ”

Ellie, who was quietly following behind, suddenly tugged at Luo Xiaotian's robe and whispered to him.

Luo Xiaotian glanced at the position of the sun, it was still early at noon, and the sun was still hanging at an oblique angle. However, since Ellie is hungry, she has to find something to eat.

Luo Xiaotian looked around, the central avenue facing the palace was wide and wide, extending to the south, and the two sides were full of manors with a huge area and lush plants that were close to the manor.

And the one that is close to the palace wall in the east-west direction should be the first avenue, Luo Xiaotian took Ellie and the others and walked in the direction where the Magician Association was located, and by the way, see if you can find a tavern or something like that along the way.

It's the absolute heart of Phoenix, with no vendors or open-air vendors on either side of the road, and there are plenty of estates on First Avenue interspersed with shops selling luxury goods or magical supplies.

After walking for a long time, knowing that he had crossed the boundary of the palace wall, Luo Xiaotian found a building that should be a tavern.

Pushing open the door, Luo Xiaotian knew that he had definitely made a mistake.

"Mr. Magician, do you have a seat reservation?"

Standing at the door and waiting, it was a middle-aged man in a black butler suit, he bowed respectfully, and then asked the words that Luo Xiaotian hadn't heard for a long time.

Don't get me wrong, even in Luo Xiaotian's previous life, he has never been to a luxury restaurant that needs to be booked, he just often sees such scenes on TV and is extremely envious, and even if it is a luxury restaurant that needs to be booked, it will not be more luxurious than here, right?

The main thing is that the walls, ceilings, windows, or stairs are engraved with gorgeous golden patterns, and with the addition of several huge magic lamps, the dazzling light reflected almost flashed into Luo Xiaotian's eyes. At the same time, various gold ornaments and sculptures are dotted throughout the hall on the first floor, like stars hanging in the sky at night.

"Uh... Nope..."

"Then, Mr. Magician, please follow me. ”

Luo Xiaotian was a little hesitant, should it be better to leave now? However, the middle-aged housekeeper in front still stepped on the stairs on the second floor, and Luo Xiaotian had to take two quick steps to keep up with him.

The second floor was brighter than the first floor, and the windows that were almost as high as the walls let more light into this golden hall, through the windows, Luo Xiaotian could see the upper part of the palace, and those windows in the middle of the white marble looked from here, like sesame seeds on black sesame biscuits.

Hawkers, it's not because Luo Xiaotian wants to eat sesame biscuits that he thought of this.

On one of the window seats on the second floor sat an old man who looked like an aristocratic man, with no food in front of him, only a glass of red wine.

"Mr. Magician, is this your first time with us?"

"Yes, I'm here for the first time. ”

"So, Mr. Magician, please take a look at the menu. ”

After taking the still gold-plated black menu from the middle-aged butler, Luo Xiaotian flipped it open.

The first page is all wine, all kinds of wines.

The second page is still wine, all kinds of fruit wines.

Turning to the third page, I finally saw the food, but... What is fried snapdragon?What is fried beef in mandrake?Finally, it's a bit dangerous no matter how you look at it?

"Hahaha, young man, don't you understand what's on the menu? Leave it to me! Rodman, give me two of my usual meals, and by the way, prepare a meal for this gentleman's pet, and put them on my account. ”

The old man who was sitting at another table before came to Luo Xiaotian's table with his own red wine, and after he stood up, Luo Xiaotian found that this old man with white hair was really very strong, and he could only reach his chest when he stood up.

"Yes! Mr. Wilmot. ”

The middle-aged butler named Rodman who put away the menu bowed to this side, and then quickly left the second floor.

"Uh... Mr. Wilmot, let me pay for my own meal!"

"Hehehe, don't worry, I like to make friends with you promising young people, it looks like you're not even twenty years old, right? I haven't seen you at the Imperial Academy of Magic in Phoenix, are you from Endymion?

The elderly nobleman named Wilmot pulled out the chair in front of Luo Xiaotian and sat down, putting his wine aside.

"No, Mr. Wilmot, I'm from Fink City. Also, my name is Ronald Darwin, just call me Ronald. ”

"Ronald, um... That's even more precious, I guess there's no magic academy in Mackintosh Province. You're here to go to the Imperial Academy of Magic?"

"Yes, Mr. Wilmot, I have some things to do here, and I'll be going to the Imperial Academy of Magic later. ”

Before he completely understood the purpose and personality of the old man in front of him, Luo Xiaotian would not tell him the real purpose of his coming here for the time being. Is it really just because I like to make friends with promising young people?

"So, do you have a place to stay? Why don't you come to my manor?"

"Thank you very much, Mr. Wilmot, I'll be staying with the Wizards' Guild first, and I've got something to give to President Winifred. ”

"Oh, since you know President Lance, that's easy, if you have any problems, you can always come to me, I live on First Avenue, and you can find my estate just by asking. Hehe, say hello to President Lance for me!"

This is, Rodman, who had gone downstairs and was wearing a butler's uniform, returned to the second floor with a bunch of maids holding trays in his hands, and after a while, all kinds of refined food were on the table.

"Mr. Wilmot, Mr. Magician!

"Alright, Ronald, let's try these foods, although this restaurant likes to use strange plants as ingredients to accompany food, but I have to say that it is because of these plants that these foods have a special flavor. ”
