The City of Mad Dogs is not as dirty and messy as Moller imagined, but the walls are surprisingly tall, the streets are surprisingly clean, and the houses are surprisingly neat. Lined with luxury casinos and bustling hotels, it is a scene of prosperity.

However, after a little familiarity with the terrain, Moller appeared, and this beautiful scene was limited to a few main streets, and in some other remote neighborhoods and alleys, there were people fighting all the time, all kinds of magic and martial arts were staged, the walls and streets were full of potholes and cobweb-like cracks, and black and red blood and garbage were piled up everywhere. However, these people, no matter how chaotic they are, will not go to those main streets to mess around.

Although the city of mad dogs is a land of chaos, it is not without rules. There are some rules written in blood by human life, and the laws are stricter than those in other cities, and one of them is that it is forbidden to destroy the main roads of the city, because these places are places where powerful bigwigs walk when they travel, and whoever destroys this place is causing trouble for the bigwigs, and in a few hours, his head will appear in the garbage heap in the corner of some alley.

Of course, if the bigwigs destroy it themselves, there will naturally be a lot of juniors who are responsible for repairing it, so these main roads have been kept clean and tidy.

Although the main road is good, not everyone can stay for a long time, in case it gets in the way of a big man's eyes, and is killed by others to relieve boredom, there is nowhere to reason.

Mephistopheles led Moeller into a bar behind a main road, which was not as good as the main road, but not too chaotic, after all, it was only a street away, and people always knew how to be restrained. Moreover, Moeller and his party have a high-level demon warrior, and this kind of strength can also be the leader of a medium force in the City of Mad Dogs, so few people are willing to provoke.

The tavern is a three-story building, and it is very lively inside, the thousand-square-meter venue is divided into three parts, on one side is cheerful and crazy music and exposed beauties singing and dancing, in the middle is a good place to drink wine and eat meat, and on the other side there are several gambling games, a bunch of people around a few roulette wheels and a few long tables roaring excitedly.

Mephistopheles led Moeller around the table and turned to a staircase where two guards were guarded, but when they saw Mephistopheles, they didn't stop them and let them go up.

All the way to the third floor, there was already a sallow and skinny middle-aged man waiting there, first looked at the people who came upstairs with a bright eye, and then said to Mephistopheles with a blank face: "Madame is waiting for you." ”

When Moeller heard the middle-aged man talk about "Madame", he only thought that the owner of this place should be a middle-aged woman, but he didn't expect that this Madame was referring to Mephistopheles's mother, the current Duchess of Rose!

The Duchess looked to be a very gentle woman, she was very well maintained, as if she was only in her early thirties, her facial features were soft and delicate, she had a burgundy head, which was simply coiled on her head, she wore a delicate ornament made of dozens of diamonds, and a pendant composed of rose petals around her neck, which was the same as the nightmare gemstone pendant in Mephistopheles.

"My little Nicol, you naughty little villain, you make your mother worry about it!"

When the Duchess saw Mephistopheles, tears of joy flashed in her eyes, and she opened her arms to give him a hug.

"Mom!" Mephistopheles resisted a little awkwardly, not knowing if it was because of the nickname, but he didn't refuse his mother's hug in the end.

"You've lost a lot of weight, mom came over this time and brought Mama Gülen and asked her to make you your favorite rose venison cake!"

Mephistopheles bowed her head in agreement, and the Duchess turned her attention to Moeller and the others, and smiled at them with a slight apologetic smile: "Forgive me for being rude, because I haven't seen little Nicol for several years, and I'm too excited, please take a seat." ”

This is a study of more than 30 square meters, in front of three large dark brown wooden bookcases are two rows of ivory carved stools, with blue-gold brocade cushions and backrests, on the side is a small round table, on which are placed a few plates of snacks, and a palm-sized magic stove, is cooking a silver teapot, steam wafts into the air, diffusing a refreshing fruity fragrance.

The Duchess sat at the round table, Mephistopheles sat next to her, Moller was across from the Duchess, Rex sat directly on his lap, and next to him was Chris.

"Mr. Moller. The Duchess poured a cup of tea for Moller, and the tea of this world was not made of tea leaves, but of all kinds of strange materials, like the tea that Miss Meryl was accustomed to drink before, it was made from the tubers of plants that looked like iron lumps, and had the taste of licorice apricots, which were commonly drunk by ordinary people. The tea sent by the Duchess seemed to be made of some kind of fruit, and the tea soup was as green as jade, which looked very pleasant.

Moller thanked him and took the teacup, scooped out a small spoonful of white powder, whether salt or sugar, from the ingredient plate on the small round table, poured it into the teacup, stirred it, and left it there as if to wait for it to dissolve. Later, he refused the Duchess's tea for Rex and Chris on the grounds that children were not good at drinking tea, saying that Mephistopheles must be very much looking forward to the tea made by his mother, and the Duchess only had to take care of her long-lost son.

Mephistopheles, who had been used as an excuse by Mohler, glanced at him, took the tea handed by the Duchess, and drank it all in one gulp—a heroic way of drinking without any aristocratic etiquette.

The Duchess smiled helplessly, and then said to Moeller with a sincere face: "I have heard all about your journey, Mephistopheles's child's nonsense has caused you trouble, please don't mind." ”

The Duchess's attitude surprised Moeller a little, and also made him a little embarrassed by the precautionary table he had just made. The Duchess looked at him and said with a kind smile: "Fortunately, the past skirmish did not cause any irreparable damage, so don't take it to heart, you have come all the way through life and death, and you have become companions, haven't you?"

"The Duchess is right, thank you very much for your understanding. The other party's attitude made Moeller breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder if this lady knew that her son had been blown up by me, would she have erased the matter so lightly......

Mephistopheles did not object to his mother's attitude, and even at night, he came to the bedroom where Moeller was resting, and said directly: My family is going to rebel, and I want you to follow me, do you think it's okay?

Moeller was very surprised, thought for a while, raised his eyebrows, and said, "How can Your Excellency take a fancy to a low-level magician like me?

"Just call me Orlando, Mother is right, we're already partners who have gone through the trials of life and death together, aren't we?" Mephistopheles didn't smile, but his eyes were gentle, and he continued to answer Moller's question: "During the battle outside the city of Forrod, you controlled the flames in the air, and as far as I know, only magicians who have condensed the corresponding magic strings in their bodies have this ability. ”

When he said this, he looked at Moeller with a "I guessed correctly" look, and Moeller shrugged his shoulders without negating his inference.

"The magic string is also known as the key of the ninth order, as long as the magician who can condense the magic string, it is not surprising that he can grow into a ninth-order magician, and the chance of becoming a magic master is much higher than that of ordinary magicians. In addition, I have never seen an enchanter who can draw an alchemy magic circle in one go on a bumpy ship, which means that your enchantment level is already quite good, but it is limited to the lack of magic power, and it is not enough to make higher quality enchanted items. These two points alone are enough to prove the value of cooperating with you, a future ninth-order enchanter, but you have to build a good relationship early!"

"Orlando, you're overrated, and no one knows what the future holds. And how can you be sure that I will definitely agree to you?

By this Moeller he meant to test Mephistopheles' attitude—did you mean to say "If you don't cooperate, you must be eliminated in order to prevent leaks?"

Mephistopheles shook his head and said: "This is not a secret, the shape is already clear at a glance, as long as the nobles with a little power know clearly, our Rose family and the royal family have no room for relaxation." But I'm confident that I'll convince you to join because I have what you need. ”

"Oh?" Moeller raised his eyebrows again, he didn't use this watch very much, but Mephistopheles' watch tonight was really worth picking: "You know what I want?"

Mephistopheles smiled confidently and said, "You didn't hide your purpose. You are not the kind of righteous person who is selfless and dedicated, but you are willing to take risks to help Chris, I am afraid that you are looking forward to obtaining resources to learn magic from the star magician, right? Although our Rose family does not have a ninth-order enchanter, as an ancient family with a long history and even more than the current royal family, the storage of various magical resources is richer than that of the royal family, which will only be more beneficial to your strength improvement. ”

I have to say that Mephistopheles's words made Moeller very moved, but he didn't agree immediately, but said that he would think about it, and Mephistopheles didn't have any dissatisfaction, and said goodbye with a graceful smile.

After sending Mephistopheles away, Moeller breathed a sigh of relief, only feeling that the way he spoke just now was very tiring, but at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Mephistopheles was really a natural politician, and he was caught by him not long ago, but now he talked to him about cooperation like no one, and his psychology was really not ordinary!

The most important thing is that Moller can feel that Mephistopheles is not false, he is sincere to reveal the past, and this is the most admirable part.
