Chapter 88 [Ominous Premonition](1/2)

The girl's eyes lit up, she looked at Chen Daolin and said in surprise: "Do you have a way?"

"It can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause." Chen Daolin shook his head and said, "At most, I can only help fool the matter tonight, but I have to find a way to calm it down afterwards, so..."

"As long as you can hide tonight first." The girl's eyes were shining, she looked at Chen Daolin with a smile, and hurriedly said, "You talk first."

Chen Daolin smiled, with a prank in his eyes, lowered his voice and said, "It's very simple... find a shield first."

"shield?"

"Well, it's a shield."

He touched his chin and laughed.

"...What a good way?" The girl was a little discouraged and looked at Chen Daolin with disdain: "I... our lady is worried because she doesn't want to marry someone else. If she finds a shield tonight, she will be afraid of causing trouble for herself. What if she can't get rid of it in the future? The family rules are strict. Once the lady chooses someone, the family will take it seriously. At that time, what if the lady is asked to marry that shield, how can it end?"

"Of course it's not that simple." Chen Daolin shook his head and said, "The goal of the shield is the most critical."

He became interested, sat cross-legged and said quickly, "Don't worry, listen to me slowly. Well... Think about it, if the Liszt family is as big as a wealthy family, if you want to find a husband for the lady, you must choose those nobles with similar families, right?"

"This... although it cannot be said that it requires a wealthy family, it must also have a considerable background. Talent, appearance, and family background must be considered."

"That's it." Chen Daolin nodded and said, "So, the shields selected cannot be selected for those with good conditions and excellent conditions, otherwise, the family may become fake and real. Then your ladies really want to run away. I mean..."

"You mean, you deliberately chose a crooked person?" The girl's eyes lit up.

"Well... I don't have to say that I have to be slandered." Chen Daolin smiled bitterly: "Choose someone with weaker conditions in all aspects, with an ordinary family background, and a mediocre person and appearance. Anyway, it's the kind of unfair choice that you pick out, which makes people feel like flowers and cow dung. It makes people feel that your eldest lady actually chose such a person, and even God can't stand it. Then... Anyway, at the banquet tonight, your lady will put this

The shield is pushed out and fooled for a while. I believe that afterwards, the elders of the family will feel dissatisfied and will definitely find a way to ask your ladies to give up this idea and choose a husband again. In this way, your ladies pretend to fight for a while, pretend to struggle for a while, and finally pretend to slowly soften their attitude. After a while, they will always delay for a while. In the future, there will be ten days and half months, and in the future, there will be more than a year and a half years..."

The girl lowered her head and thought for a while, looking hesitant: "This...it's a little difficult to end afterwards. Even if she delays for a few days, she still has to bow to her family."

"...I said, this method can only be fooled for a while, and you can get some time." Chen Daolin shook his head: "I am not a god, so how can I come up with a one-time solution to the problem completely."

"This...but..." the girl sighed: "There is another problem. Who should I choose this shield? You know, the lady has many admirers. If she chooses an innocent guy, that person will definitely become the target of public criticism and is secretly jealous of many people, I am afraid... will..."

"Haha, I know this." Chen Daolin sighed: "I went on the way to come with Rodriguez IV and Kaman. One of them was hung on a tree and the other was buried in the soil. They were both killed by their rivals. I think the shields you selected by your ladies will naturally not be easy. I am afraid there will be many open and secret arrows in the future."

"Well, that's it, but... give that person some compensation." The girl seemed to be a little moved: "Anyway, it's just a delay. As long as you survive a while and finally terminate the engagement, the shield will naturally not be in trouble. As for the period, giving him more benefits is worthy of him."

"Um."

"And... that person can't have any delusions." The girl suddenly showed murderous aura on her face: "If he had delusions to make the false come true..."

"So, choose a person who is weak in all aspects. What a lady, what kind of person is your lady? Choose a little person from the Liszt family. If you are disobedient, you can easily grasp him and tell him not to have bad thoughts. If he dares to have bad thoughts, he will be able to kill those rivals with a little trick!"

What Chen Daolin said was very evil.

"...It's a good idea!" The girl slapped her thighs and jumped up suddenly, looking at Chen Daolin, squinted her eyes: "I didn't expect that you guy is quite evil, but you actually came up with such an evil way."

"Haha." Chen Daolin smiled. He sat and spoke without hurting his back. He was just trying to pay attention to it with a prank. Anyway, he was not the one who was unlucky, so he was happy to watch a good show.

The girl was very excited. After thinking for a long time, she had no patience to continue sitting down. She stood up and said, "I'll go back first and think about how to arrange this matter... Well, I'll discuss it with the lady. Mr. Darling, this idea you came up with is very good. If it can be done, I will definitely ask the lady to thank you very much."

After saying that, the little girl crawled into the bushes and disappeared quickly.

Chen Daolin sighed, patted his pants, and smiled happily: "Am I a bad kid...hehe."

He got up, walked away, and returned all the way to his residence in the garden.

In the evening, a servant came to inform Chen Daolin to go to the banquet. The Liszt family prepared very well and even asked Chen Daolin carefully whether he needed to prepare the dress for him. Chen Daolin thought about it, since he was a "magic", he would just act the role to the end and rejected the servant's kindness.

He left Barossa in the room to rest. Although the little girl Xia Xia was very curious and wanted to see the appearance of such a wealthy banquet, Chen Daolin naturally could not bring such a little maid to the banquet. He left both girls in the room and asked the servant to prepare sumptuous food to deliver to the room. Chen Daolin followed the servant to the banquet.

I didn't see two guys, Kaman and Rodriguez IV, so I thought I would have gone to the banquet first. Chen Daolin secretly complained that these two people were unfaithful and leisurely followed the servant who led the way to the banquet hall.

The main venue of this adult ceremony is set in the main building of the castle.

The hall on the first floor of the castle has been decorated in a magnificent manner.

Chen Daolin came here with the servants. He had already waited outside for rows of brightly dressed and polite servants, and there were family guards wearing armored warriors guarding the surroundings in the distance.

Chen Daolin was brought in from the side door. There were already a hundred guests in the hall, each of which was well-dressed and extraordinary.

Chen Daolin walked in slowly in a simple gray robe, but not many people noticed him. Only a very small number of people noticed the style of Chen Daolin's gray robe, and showed a somewhat surprised expression.

However, these guests with great identities often respect their identities and are extremely reserved. Even if they see some clues, they will not express themselves too much. They only occasionally give a kind smile and look, and nod from afar to show their respect for the magician.

But there is one thing... no one will really come up to say hello to Chen Daolin.

Chen Daolin was not surprised, because he had already known that in the Roland Empire, people mostly treated magicians in this way. On the one hand, magicians were respected and envied by the public because of their superhuman abilities. But on the other hand, because most magicians are withdrawn and difficult to approach, people often regard them as "freaks" and have a stay away from them.

The specifications of this banquet are obviously more luxurious than the dance party that Chen Daolin saw in the mysterious place in Freeport before.

The attendants who were shuttled through the crowd seemed to have received excellent training at first glance. They were polite but not overly flattering, and had the temperament of a large family. On the side of the hall, on a small platform, a band was playing soft music. What made Chen Daolin particularly curious was that a huge instrument like a harp was in the middle, but no one played it, but the strings were playing slowly and automatically, making a pleasant sound!

He immediately recognized it, and it was clearly a kind of magic!

The Lister family is indeed extraordinary. It actually uses magic to such places. This is simply an extremely low-key luxury!

Chen Daolin also discovered that the hall of the ancient castle was brightly lit, but in addition to the luxurious crystal chandeliers and candlelights, more light came from the gorgeous reliefs of the round vaulted ceiling at the top of the hall!

The beautiful patterns carved are like blooming flowers, and there is a soft and warm light.

"The magic of lighting?" Chen Daolin identified it slightly and faintly felt a trace of magical aura, which seemed to be a kind of light-type magic. What surprised Chen Daolin was that just such a illumination magic had reached the middle level! It was definitely not something he could do at his current level.

Such a real wealthy party would naturally not appear in the socialites and other girls in the dance party in Freeport. However, after walking casually for a while, he also saw many young and beautiful women, dressed in gorgeous clothes, surrounded by many well-dressed young people.

I think they are all children of nobles, but these people clearly have small circles, clearly distinguishing themselves from each other, and do not communicate too much.

He looked around in the hall, and finally found a corner to stand there quietly. He wanted to rest for a while, but suddenly heard a warm voice coming from beside him.

"Ah! Master Darling!"

Looking back, I saw an acquaintance.

Baron Hines wore a very tailored suit that seemed like a military uniform. He looked quite heroic, but the uniform was probably specially made, with several ribbons hanging on it, which looked quite funny from Chen Daolin's eyes.

However, Baron Hines's smile was very sincere. He strode over and looked at Chen Daolin without hiding the joy in his eyes: "Sure enough, I saw you here, Master Mage. I often regretted that I could not think of you for more advice after that meeting on the road."

The so-called "to stretch out your hand and don't hit people with a smile, and this Hines gave Chen Daolin a good impression. As long as there is no Gu Le around, who makes him afraid of him, Chen Daolin is still happy to make friends with this hospitable and generous baron.

"Hiss Baron." Chen Daolin nodded and saluted Hines with the etiquette of the Roland Empire in his memory, and smiled politely.

"You are so polite." Hines sighed: "There is no baron in front of the magician... You said that, because you didn't regard me as a friend. If possible, please call me Hines directly."

"Hynes." Chen Daolin reciprocates his favor and immediately said, "Then please don't call me any wizard, please call me Darling directly."

"Darling, haha!" Hines raised his hand casually and summoned a waiter. He took the initiative to take two glasses of wine and handed it to Chen Daolin a glass: "It is difficult to taste the fine wine produced in the private cellar of Liszt's family."

Chen Daolin smiled, took it and signaled to him, took a small sip, and it was indeed refreshing and refreshing. The alcohol content was not high. The approximate taste was a bit similar to the fruit wine I had drunk in reality. It had a slightly sour taste, but it was not difficult to drink.

"Where is that guy Kaman?" Hines looked around and asked, "Aren't you there?"

Chen Daolin was about to answer when he heard the familiar voice of the fat man and said in a sarcastic tone: "Hynes, do you care about me very much?"

Kaman had already walked over from the side, and Rodriguez IV followed behind, but his expression was very reluctant.

Chen Daolin was a little surprised. Logically speaking, the relationship between Fatty and Luo Xiaogou was extremely bad. On the way, Kaman had even attacked Luo Xiaogou and tied him up and hung it on a tree. However, after arriving at the Liszt family, the two guys were still together all day long and did not fight, which was a strange thing.

Hines ignored Kaman's sarcasm and saw Rodriguez IV. Hines smiled: "His Excellency Rodriguez, it's been a long time since we saw him."

"Hello, Baron." Luo Xiaogou nodded.

But then Luo Xiaogou showed an impatient expression: "Hines, have you ever met Miss Lodell?"

Hines was stunned, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "No...who is my identity? Where can I have the chance to meet the lady before the banquet? But I heard that Mr. Gule was invited to meet the host and had lunch with the host at noon."

"That fence-bearer." Kaman said in disdain, "It's very popular everywhere you go."

"Mr. Gule has a wide range of friends and friends all over the world, which is very admirable." Hines said lightly and glanced at Kaman: "So Lord Kaman, haven't seen Miss Lodell?"

Kaman's face froze and he forced a smile: "Sister Lodell is feeling a little uncomfortable."

After a pause, he glanced at Chen Daolin: "It's Master Darling, I was invited to see Sister Lodell this morning."

"Oh?" Hines was shocked, and his eyes looked at Chen Daolin again, and it was a little different.

Chen Daolin had no choice but to explain the words "received things by elders" to Kaman and others.

"Darling, your elder must be an amazing magician, right?" Hines couldn't help asking, "I wonder who it is?"

Chen Daolin thought to himself, if I really say it, I might be hunted by the bounty hunter. He had to laugh without saying a word and not answering.

Rodriguez IV had a complicated look, looked at Chen Daolin and said, "Darling, you...when you met Sister Lodell today, did she say anything else to you?"

Chen Daolin shook his head: "I am an outsider and I haven't even said a few words to that lady. How could there be any news?"

He looked at this guy, and the infatuated look in his eyes was almost unconcealed, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The little maid once told Chen Daolin that Miss Lodell was actually extremely disgusted with these "friends" or "brothers". I think this little dog's infatuation probably won't have any result.

As the four young people greeted each other, the atmosphere of the banquet gradually became warmer.

Finally, after about half an hour, I heard the band's performance stop suddenly, and the music in the hall ended abruptly.

The guests roughly guessed something, and the people who were originally talking also stopped and looked at the wide steps leading up the castle building on the front of the hall.

An old man in a black dress slowly walked up, stood on the steps, and bowed deeply to the guests below.

The old man had silver hair and wrinkles on his face, but his demeanor was quite extraordinary. After standing up straight, his face looked solemn and a faint aura.

"Huh? It's Housekeeper Lance." Luo Xiaogou frowned and looked at the old man.

"Butler? Isn't this the elder of the Liszt family?" Chen Daolin said curiously.
