Outside the banquet hall, seeing Kino's gaze, Liu Ke turned around and said telepathically: "Dulang, Kino is already in the banquet hall. Resakhar didn't come. I just heard him

Will arrive at 9pm, that is, 4 hours later."

Durang: "These four hours are our action time. Liu Ke, what mask is Chino wearing today?"

Liu Ke leaned over and took a peek inside. The banquet had already begun. Kino was delivering a speech on the stage. He took a pure gold mask and put it on his face. Everyone applauded.

Liu Ke quickly identified it: "The Sun King, the leader of the gods, should be the symbol of the host of the banquet. He is the only one wearing the Sun King mask in the audience."

Durang: "Very good, come out and cooperate with us now. Me, Wolfe, and the other four are all wearing death masks, so they should be easy to identify."

Liu Ke: "Okay. By the way, where is Alice?"

Durang: "Alice's mission has been completed. She will stay outside to take care of her. Kino knows her. She cannot act with us, otherwise she will be exposed."

"I know, I'll come out now." Liu Ke left the banquet hall and walked towards the outer checkpoint.

Soon, Liu Ke saw his companion wearing a death mask.

All 6 people were wearing the same mask, so it was easy to identify them.

The peripheral checkpoint is manned by two guards. One checks the name on the invitation, and the other checks the roster and performs facial recognition on the guests attending the banquet.

The invitation, roster, and face must all match before you can enter. If one of them does not match, you will be immediately arrested by the guards.

No, there were already several drunkards nearby, holding invitations stolen from unknown places, trying to sneak into the government residence, but they were caught.

The person who looked through the roster was a senior guard who knew the face of every noble in Twilight City, and he checked everything to be sure.

Liu Ke walked towards the senior guard who was looking at the roster and said, "I just saw Paladin looking for you. It seems there is something urgent."

The senior guard shook his head and said, "I'm busy, I'll talk to you later."

Liu Ke couldn't help but take the roster and waved his hand: "Go quickly. If you delay things, be careful of Paladin causing trouble for you. I'm here to check it for you."

The senior guard didn't say much. In terms of qualifications, Jie, a "veteran of three dynasties", was much more powerful than him. Not only did this guy know every noble in the city, he could even identify the faces of most civilians.

After a few casual instructions, the senior guard left in a hurry.

Just as Du Lang and others were about to step forward, suddenly, a male nobleman came up with a female companion. He took off his mask and gave Liu Ke a warm hug: "Hey, Jie, long time no see."

Liu Ke was a little panicked for a moment. Although he appeared to be Jie, he didn't have Jie's memory and couldn't recognize these nobles.

Fortunately, the guard nearby who was responsible for checking the invitation quickly said: "Colin Smith, Carol Smith."

Liu Ke found the name on the roster, checked it twice, and said with a cheerful smile: "You two have been doing well recently. You are younger than the last time we met. I almost didn't recognize you. Please come in~"

Mr. and Mrs. Smith put on their masks again and said enthusiastically: "I'll meet you for a drink later."

Liu Ke waved his hand: "My pleasure!"

After the Smiths left, Durang came with his companions and handed over the invitation.

It has to be said that Qiao's skills are really good. These invitations were fake and the guards didn't even notice that they were genuine, so they gave the 6 people's pseudonyms.

Durang and others took off their masks and faced Liu Ke.

These 6 people were not on the roster, but Liu Ke still checked it seriously, checked the air, and said with a hearty smile: "Ah~ Long time no see, please come in!"

Durang and others put on masks, entered the executive residence, and began to undergo the second round of security inspections.

The guard nodded to Du Lang and others: "If you have knives and other items, please cooperate and hand them over to us, and we will keep them for you. There are also rings, which need to be kept together."

Du Lang couldn't help but squint his eyes. Everyone in his team had a space ring.

According to common sense, rings should not be included in the security inspection.

There is only one possibility for this abnormality now - this is Kino's instruction.

It seems that Li Minkai, who invaded in the last round, not only exposed the information about reincarnation disguise, but also exposed his own space ring.

What a fool. Durand thought.

Seeing that Du Lang was not moving, the guard asked tentatively: "How do you do? Do you have any knives or rings?"

Du Lang and others stretched out their hands: "No."

"Okay, please cooperate with us." The guard searched Du Lang and others, and after confirming that there were no contraband, he nodded and said, "I'm sorry, please come in."

After passing the inspection, Wolfe sneered and said: "It's really dangerous."

Du Lang touched his wrist, and there was an inconspicuous bump there, which contained a space chip implanted under the skin.

When he exchanged the space ring for the first time, he found that the space ring had traces of modern craftsmanship.

If the mission sends them to a certain feudal era plane, this modern craftsmanship ring may become an inconspicuous flaw.

Therefore, he specifically used D-level reward points to exchange for a space chip to be implanted into his body.

It is also Class D. The storage capacity of the space chip is 5 times smaller than that of the space ring, but it is more concealable. Durang also uses it specifically to store the space ring, so that it does not need to be worn on the finger.

Without this chip, if the space ring is taken away by the guards, not to mention whether it will be seen by Chino, all their weapons will be inside, and their combat power will be greatly limited.

Before Durang and others took two steps, the senior guards from earlier ran towards them, but they had already put on their masks, and the two waves of people passed by.

The senior guard ran up to Liu Ke, pushed him, and cursed: "Jie, you kid is teasing me, Paladin didn't even look for me!"

Liu Ke pretended to touch the back of his head in confusion: "Strange, did I hear it wrong?"

"You go, you go, don't cause trouble here." The senior guard took the roster, "Nothing happened just now, right?"

Liu Ke smiled and said, "No, they are all old friends."

"That's good." The senior guard continued to examine the guests.

After the change of guard, for the sake of safety, Liu Ke did not approach Durang and others. The two sides kept a safe distance and communicated telepathically.

As soon as Liu Ke walked to the door of the banquet hall, he was suddenly slapped on the back of his head. Paladin's voice came: "Jie, what are you doing? A guard came to me just now and said that I had something to see him. You were the one who fooled me, right?"

?”

Liu Ke pretended to be calm and said innocently: "Strange, I seemed to hear you saying that you were looking for him... Maybe I heard it wrong, the house is too noisy today."

Paladin shook his head: "Forget it, I won't argue with you kid. Do you want to go inside to drink? If so, I will give you my mask."

Liu Ke was a little confused: "Why, you won't go in?"

"Lord Kino saw that there were too many guests, and asked me to take people outside to strengthen the garrison. It's really helpless, so much good wine and meat were wasted." Paladin said, handing his mask to Liu Ke.
