In the business district, there are many buildings that can be called landmarks. For the local residents of Milia City, there is only one building that can represent the luxury and prosperity of the business district. This building is the 200-story Xinghai

hotel.

The designer of Xinghai Hotel is Velen's famous designer Belmiki. His design of the Sky Temple in America, the Mausoleum of Queen Elizabeth in Saville and the Red Tower Square in the Kingdom of Maris are all classic cases of Velen architecture and are the best examples of all architects.

The object of competition for imitation.

Ten years ago, the great philanthropist Rupert Fitz, the owner of Xinghai Hotel, paid a sky-high price and invited Bellmiki, who had been reclusive, to come out again, design and supervise the entire construction of this gorgeous hotel, and Bellmiki also

Because he spent so much time building this hotel, he passed away the day after the hotel was completed. This also made this hotel a legacy of Belmiki, adding a touch of mystery.

The entire hotel adopts an all-steel structure, and it uses special steel from the Maris Kingdom. Even a large steel-producing country like the Maris Kingdom does not produce a lot of special steel every year, and most of it is used by the Maris Kingdom.

It manufactures steamships and steam airships, and it was entirely because of Bellmiki that Xinghai Hotel was able to obtain so much special steel.

Like most high-end hotels today, the exterior walls of Xinghai Hotel are made of special glass, but the special glass of Xinghai Hotel is different. When Bellmiki was making the glass, he added a unique American-Canadian glass to the glass.

Fluorite is available and rarely produced.

This kind of fluorite can absorb a large amount of external light and heat during the day, and will release it outward at night, making the entire hotel seem to be surrounded by starlight. This is also the origin of the name of Xinghai Hotel.

In addition, the interior decoration, furniture, etc. of the hotel are extremely luxurious, so much so that there is a saying in Milia City that if you can stay in a guest room of Xinghai Hotel for one night in your life, you will smile until you die.

leave.

However, the owner of Xinghai Hotel is now in the king's suite on the top floor of the hotel, which is also the most expensive. Standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the entire city of Milia like a god, there is no smile on his face.

Behind him, dozens of Milia dignitaries wearing various high-end clothing stood with their heads lowered like children being taught a lesson, waiting for the thunderous wrath of the master here.

There was silence in the room for a while, and then the majestic-looking Rupert opened his mouth to question the Continental Congress officials he had secretly funded: "I really want to know why the Congress passed the indictment so quickly? Why didn't you stop it?"

"Mr. Fitz, we stopped it, but the speaker personally presided over the meeting, and the members at the meeting seemed to have discussed it. They passed the indictment issue before we could react. There is nothing we can do." One of them said.

The powerful man stood up and explained to everyone.

If there are people who are familiar with officials at all levels of the Continental Congress in this room, they will definitely recognize that the powerful man who spoke is the chief magistrate of the Continental Congress. His duty is to supervise the order of the meeting and can expel any member who he thinks is disrupting the proceedings of the meeting.

He also has the power to veto an issue once a month, and his powers are almost as important as those of the speaker of the meeting.

"Why didn't you use your veto power to veto the issue?" Rupert turned his head and looked at the chief magistrate coldly and asked.

The chief magistrate explained: "If you want to exercise your veto power, you must first submit a veto proposal. I had prepared the veto proposal before the meeting, but the folder where the proposal was placed at the meeting was stolen. My assistant went to get it.

He was attacked while backing up the proposal, but ultimately failed to prevent the indictment proposal from being passed."

A dignitary who is also an official of the Continental Congress defended: "This matter was premeditated. They first used skeletons to draw your attention away, and then made a sudden attack to force the issue..."

"That's enough! Since you made a mistake, don't quibble and explain that your mistake is just a sign of incompetence. Instead, think about how to make up for the mistake and how to prevent the mistake." Rupert scolded, interrupting the powerful man's defense.

Said: "I can allow my people to make mistakes, but I will never allow incompetence."

As Rupert's words fell, the room immediately became quiet. Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to make any more excuses.

"I hope tomorrow's issue regarding the fact that the Duke is not suitable to appear in court due to his special status and can be replaced by others can be passed smoothly. If you can't handle this matter, then there is no need for you to sit down in this position. There are many

People are willing to take your place." Rupert glanced at everyone coldly, turned his head and continued to look out the window at the night view of Miria City, and said: "You can leave now, go through the secret passage, I don't want to be there.

At this time, it was discovered that there is a relationship between you."

When these dignitaries heard Rupert's order, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. They were glad that today's test had passed smoothly, and they all bowed and left.

Just as these dignitaries exited the room and closed the door, water-like light patterns appeared in the air around Rupert, and then a mysterious man covered by a burqa appeared in that place and said to Rupert:

"None of these guys are trustworthy, so if you leave the matter to them, aren't you afraid of screwing it up?"

"I have never believed them." Rupert looked very calm, without any trace of anger on his face. "The secret safe of the Skull and Bones Society was opened, and the account books inside were also taken away. There was evidence of their bribery.

They thought it was those two people who took away the evidence. Of course they were very anxious. They were still in the mood to do anything now. They were afraid that when someone showed up in front of them with something related to the account book, they would immediately betray me.

Switch to a new owner."

"Aren't you worried?" the mysterious man asked curiously.

Rupert said expressionlessly: "They are just chess pieces. They are the chess pieces that lead me to all the goals. They are the things that will be eaten in the end. Why should I worry about them?"

"What a cold guy!" The mysterious man didn't seem to be afraid of Rupert. After making a joke, he asked in a deep voice: "Do you need me to help you find the account book? You should know that with my ability

It can definitely be done.”

Rupert turned his head and glanced at the mysterious man coldly, and said, "When did your wizard assembly become interested in this kind of game of thrones?"

"It's just keeping pace with the times!" the mysterious man said with a smile.

Rupert looked down upon the other party unceremoniously and said: "It's a pity that your reputation is so bad. Whoever cooperates with you will be unlucky." After saying that, before the other party could get angry, he said again: "You gather all the guys in Lanxi.

Something happened in Cage City, and they were driven out by the Aknaya Church in Cage City. Although my people used the method of transferring benefits to get the labor leaders of Cage City to suppress the matter, but we should do it according to the way you do things.

If you go on, something will happen sooner or later. I don't want to be distracted from helping you clean up the mess while helping the Duke win the throne, so before there is any result here, you should go to other countries for a visit."

"Do you want to end our cooperation?" the mysterious man asked in a deep voice.

Rupert looked at the mysterious man calmly and said in a cold tone: "If I wanted to end our cooperation, I wouldn't talk to you like this, and I would drive you away directly."

The mysterious man said nothing more, and bowed slightly to Rupert, then turned around and walked towards the glass wall, hitting the wall directly. When the glass shattered, his whole body was not included in the glass, and then

He disappeared, and the cracks on the glass disappeared with him.

"A bunch of useless rats!" Seeing the mysterious man's magical ability, Rupert showed no abnormal expression at all. Instead, he snorted with disdain, then picked up the bell on the coffee table next to him and shook it.

After the clear ringing of the bell, someone knocked on the door of the room. After Rupert said "come in", a well-dressed butler walked in, saluted Rupert and asked: "Master, what are your orders?"

?”

Rupert thought for a while and ordered: "Use the best invitations to invite all the dignitaries in the city who have the ability to influence the decisions of the Continental Congress. I will hold a banquet at Silver Moon Castle tomorrow night. As for the arrangements for the banquet, you decide by yourself.

My only request is to satisfy all the guests present."

"Okay, sir." The butler took note of Rupert's request and exited the room.

When there was only one person left in the room, Rupert turned around and walked to the wine cabinet to pour himself a glass of wine. He took the wine glass to the piano in the room, sat down and played a cheerful tune very skillfully.

It is not difficult to tell from the music he plays that he is in a very happy mood at the moment, and is not affected by Duke Devin's current bad situation at all. If there are other people around, they may have an illusion that he has no idea whether Duke Devin can become a

Emperor Fran didn't care.

In the hotel in the fish market, Leo had been eating meat for three consecutive hours. He barely chewed it with his teeth and just swallowed it. Even so, his energy storage value had just exceeded 100.

The people in the hotel had gradually become numb from surprise. Even though they felt that Leo's extraordinary appetite did not look like a human being at all, they took the initiative to ignore these unusual things because of Leo's generous actions.

, do your own thing with peace of mind.

When Leo devoured the fiftieth meal, he raised his hand to signal the waiting waiter to stop, and then took out fifty gold flanges as a tip and handed it to the waiter and the kitchen.

people.

After the waiter left, he closed the door, put on his coat and other clothes, put on his backpack, put a hundred gold flange notes under the ink bottle on the desk, then opened the window facing the street and jumped out.

Left this hotel.

If today's move hadn't been too shocking, he wouldn't have left this pretty good hotel. Now he needs to find a suitable temporary residence.

Before Leo left the fish market, he went to the black market first, and the old man in charge of receiving him was still there.

"I want to buy some Gamore language materials." Leo asked directly.

"There is no information." The old man shook his head, and then said: "But we can find someone to teach you."

"How much?" Leo asked.

"No money." The old man shook his head again and said, "I just need to help him go to a place and get something back."

Hearing such familiar conditions, Leo tried to confirm: "Could the place you mentioned be No. 9 Golden Oak Street?"

The old man nodded.

Leo frowned and asked, "Is he the only one in the world who understands the Gamore language?"

"The Gamore language is the special language of ancient wizards. It is said that the language contains power comparable to that of the gods. Ordinary people will go crazy just by looking at it, and going crazy when they hear just one sentence. Of course, these are just legends. Guests, you can just listen to it. No need.

Seriously." The old man smiled and explained: "But the Gamore language is very weird. It cannot be learned with written materials. It can only be truly learned through one-on-one teaching. There are many people in the world who hope to crack it.

Although we are not sure if anyone else in the world knows the Gamorei language, only that gentleman is the one who truly knows it.

Gamorean.”

When Leo heard this, his face became a little gloomy. No wonder the old man looked confident and fearless.

After a moment of silence, Leo asked the old man: "I need detailed information on all the people who disappeared at No. 9 Golden Oak Street, including servants and maids, especially those from the dark world."

When the old man heard Leo's request, he couldn't help but froze for a moment. He asked him to wait a moment, then walked to the counter and told the people at the counter Leo's request. It was obviously the first time he heard such a request.

Require.

After a while, the old man came back and said: "We can find the information of these people, but in addition to the cost of the information itself, we also need to pay an additional fee."

Leo looked a little unhappy and questioned: "Didn't you say that all the information on No. 9 Golden Oak Street is free?"

"Yes, all information on No. 9 Golden Oak Street is free." The old man smiled and said, "But it's not No. 9 Golden Oak Street?"

"How much?"

"One million gold flanges." The old man reported a number.

After Leo heard this, he narrowed his glasses slightly and glanced at the old man with suspicion in his eyes.

He only got one million gold flanges from the Skull and Bones Society two days ago, and now the black market is offering one million for those materials. Such a coincidence made Leo couldn't help but wonder if the other party was deliberately using this matter to test him, to test him.

Is he the person who killed the president of Skull and Bones?

But after careful observation and data analysis from the accessory brain system, he discovered that this incident was really just a coincidence. At least there was no trace of temptation on the old man in front of him.

After confirming that the other party was not a test, Leo began to consider whether he should spend the million and whether it was worth it.

If it was before going to the Skull and Bones Society, Leo would not have considered this issue at all and turned around and left. But now he has not only one wizard's notebook written in Gamorrean, but four, three of which

It comes from the same line and must contain a complete inheritance. Whether the one million is worth it is not a question.
