However, Xia Duo also saw from the attitude of Prince Mian of Jelenstad that the interior of Jelenstad may have reached a consensus that King Mian will go out for interviews, transactions and even battles.
It will not give Xia Duo the opportunity to use the same secret scroll to exchange for several resources.
"That's fine. As long as you get rid of King Mian, you're equivalent to getting rid of all the secret scroll owners in Jelenstad."
In fact, Xia Duo did not know the current owner of the Dragon Madness Secret Scroll in Jelenstad. In this situation, although it was impossible for him to sell more than one volume, it was definitely not bad.
…
Just as Xia Duo drank the hot oriental tea, the invitation from Prince Mian arrived. It was the same messenger from before. This time he brought the formal invitation from Prince Mian——
Invite Master Lyle, who came all the way from the south, to attend a private palace banquet in the evening.
The reason why it is said to be a private banquet is that there are no other guests present, only Xia Duo and Jelenstad Crown Prince, and maybe one or two advisors, but that is the limit.
If it was a public dinner, Xia would most likely refuse. This kind of banquet would usually last until the early morning of the next day, and even if the party was more exciting, it might not be until noon the next day.
Xia Duo knew his goals and trump cards very well, and he didn't want to engage in meaningless social interactions.
But if it is a private banquet, it will be different. This means that King Jelenstad also wants to resolve this matter as soon as possible, whether it is a transaction or something else.
So Xia Duo agreed to the other party's invitation.
…
On the other side, Crown Prince Jelenstad was meeting with his intelligence adviser in a quiet garden.
"Is there any news so soon? I hope it's good news!"
"Unfortunately, my majesty, this is not good news. The investigator I sent has returned from Ketemere. He told me that there is no high mage named Lyle in Ketemere. There is not even a high mage named Lyle in Ketemere."
There are no well-known mages."
"It's indeed not good news, what else is there?" King Mian asked again.
"Also, spies from the northern countries also reported that they did not find any information about Master Lyle. In other words, that Master Lyle may be disguised from his name, image to background, and he may even be from our country.
Someone."
"It shouldn't be possible in China. Yesterday, Master Lyle was still in the Elf Court. Even if someone in China is disguised, it is impossible to deceive the mysterious lock."
"That's hard to say!" the intelligence consultant said quietly.
When King Mian heard this, his face suddenly became a little gloomy, but fortunately this expression only lasted for a fleeting moment, and he quickly turned to another topic:
"What suggestions do you have for the banquet tonight?"
"My suggestion is to do nothing. Since the other party is here to trade, then we should trade for him."
The intelligence consultant expressed his attitude unusually calmly and said, "The Dragon Madness Secret Scroll is just a piece of information. So what if we can control the other party? Can this ensure that the secret scroll owned by the other party will never be leaked?"
"well!"
King Mian sighed: "It's a pity that we can't know the other party's true identity!"
If they knew the other party's true identity, they would have a lot more room for maneuver, and they wouldn't have to be as timid as they are now.
Of course, the intelligence adviser also understood what King Mian was thinking, but as a follower with shared interests, he had to give some advice:
"Your Majesty must understand what is most important to us. From the perspective of the opponent's disguised identity, the opponent's power is limited. Even if we collect the Dragon Madness Secret Scroll, it will be difficult to achieve anything, but we will not Likewise, the more secret scrolls collected, the greater the chance of controlling the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock."
"I understand, I understand everything, but I still can't reconcile myself to it!"
King Mian knew very well that the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock could not only cause Dragon Madness, how could the ancestors in ancient times spend infinite costs just to achieve this goal!
Taking a step back, even if the Dragon Mad Lock only has that one function, the King Killer Planet is an extremely unstable source of natural disasters.
As long as you can control the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock, you can eliminate possible world-destroying natural disasters if you advance, and you can also use it as your last trump card to die with the enemy if you retreat.
In the current era, if you want to control the Dragon Madness Mystery Lock, you must first collect all the Dragon Madness Secret Scrolls. For those in high positions, it is ideal to have this thing only for yourself.
After the monarch and his ministers sighed to each other, King Mian recruited several advisors and several high-ranking family patriarchs to discuss the details of the transaction with Master Lyle to deal with the Dragon Madness Secret Scroll, and how to deal with the newly obtained secret scroll in the future.
…
The time soon came to evening.
Vecheurus at dusk, against the backdrop of the setting sun, looks like a goddess wearing a golden gauze, showing her final glory when the night is approaching.
At this time, Xia Duo, who had just gone out, saw the most smoky scene in the city. In addition to the inherent fragrance of plants in the garden city, the aroma of cooking food also came from the air.
For ordinary elves, they usually work at sunrise and rest at sunset; but for high-level elves, the exciting nightlife has just begun!
On the way to the palace, Shado specifically instructed the envoy who was leading the way to take a detour and pass by a commercial street. Although he did not buy anything, he saw the most authentic customs and customs of Jelenstad in the current era.
This gave him an additional understanding of elf society in different periods, which will also help him correctly handle the relationship between humans and elves in the future.
…
Entering the palace, Xia Duo's original cheerful mood became a little depressed. He clearly felt that Jelenstad was on guard against him, and this also brought a lot of pressure to him.
He met King Jelenstad in a reception room adjacent to the banquet hall, and there was also one of King Mian's magic advisors present.
"Master Lyle, before the dinner, please let me introduce to you the light of the arcane art of Jelenstar, who is also my magic consultant - Master Sulis!"
"Nice to meet you, Master Sulis!"
Xia Duo saluted calmly. There was no doubt that Master Sulis was also a high-level mage. After returning the salute, Master Sulis actually asked Xia Duo directly:
"Is Master Lyle really from Catmere?"
"What's the difference between yes and no?" Sha Duo smiled and looked at King Jelenstad.
King Mian also reacted at this time and explained: "Master Sulis did not intend to pry into your origin, but was interested in Katemir.
"To be able to survive the Crown War, Katemere must still retain many ancient inheritances. Master Sulis has long been interested in traveling to Katemere and learning."
"It turns out that if Master Sulis intends to go to Katemere to exchange magic, then the Rainbow Society should be a good choice."
The Rainbow Guild is a mage organization in Katemir. It has a long history and never refuses communication. Shado has heard of its name not only on the main plane, but also on multiple projection planes.
As for the projection plane he is currently in, although he has not deliberately inquired about it, he has heard about it. It is not against Sulis at all to recommend it, and it barely fits his personality!
