After the meeting, the dark poison dissipated, and Silas and his party stayed at Vickers under Harold's arrangement.
"Master, do you have anything else to do with me?"
In a remote corner, Harold looked at Kemp Hood doubtfully.
"I need you to go to this address... to deliver a letter. You must not let the second person know about this."
"this……"
Harold concentrated for a moment, and then he immediately put the letter into his arms seriously: "I understand, Master!"
"Okay, you can do what Silas asked you to do tonight, but you must pay attention to safety. I suspect he has other purposes..."
…
After another two days of fruitless search operations, Chai Anping has found nearly one-third of the cases on the book. He even saw many of Zu'an's heroes, and even saw them come out to execute them late at night.
Werewolf on a mission.
Today, his search operation had to be temporarily put on hold, because the biggest annual festival in Piltover was about to begin!
Evolution day!
Although he was concerned about the crisis in Zaun, Chai Anping still had unlimited expectations to be able to personally participate in such a grand festival in Valoran.
The streets were full of people marching, and there was endless laughter and laughter.
Humans and demi-humans from all over the world put down their work and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to this carnival.
Chai Anping first went to Nina's room to visit her. Unfortunately, the final version of the antidote was not yet ready, and she was unable to participate in this evolution day.
It is worth mentioning that after trying for so long alone, the great inventor Levik finally found out in despair that he could not save his daughter at all, so he sent Orianna over and asked the Demacia Mission to
help.
Her room is right next to Nina's, and the two of them visit occasionally.
Nina likes Orianna, a kind-hearted little girl. When Chai Anping came over, Orianna was telling Nina interesting things that happened on evolution days in previous years.
Chai Anping shocked her when he pushed the door open. She could only barely see the beginning and end of the battle in the garbage mountain, but her impression of Chai Anping was already extremely deep——
I admire you but also feel a little scared.
"Good morning."
"Good morning, Congressman!"
Orianna timidly tried to raise her smiling face and smiled at Chai Anping.
"How are you feeling, Orianna?"
"I have taken the potion given by the alchemists, and I feel much better!"
"That's good."
Orianna was wearing a pure white nightgown, and the cute lace pattern made her look like an exquisite doll.
Chai Anping turned his eyes to Nina, who was still lying on the bed, and immediately curled his lips.
"Hey, what's your expression like?"
"Ahem..."
Chai Anping laughed twice: "Although you can't go out, you should still pay attention to your image."
"Does it matter?"
After regaining her energy, the research girl who started learning alchemy asked confidently.
"Fine."
Chai Anping nodded: "No one comes to visit you anyway."
"Gracie!!!"
"Hahaha, I feel relieved to see you guys in such good spirits. Goodbye."
He took off the top hat on his head and gave a gentle gentleman's salute. He would be very busy today and would not have time to improve his favorability with Orianna here.
"Goodbye, Congressman!"
Chai Anping smiled at Orianna who had plucked up the courage, closed the door and left.
He was wearing a pure white robe at this time. The process of dressing up this robe was so complicated that Chai Anping doubted his life - he had never seen such troublesome clothes in Demacia!
Demacia has always advocated simplicity, but when it came to diplomacy, it seemed that this was no longer the case. It took half an hour just to put it on.
However, this outfit is indeed very handsome. The white toga is tattooed with the gold thread symbolizing the national emblem of Demacia. It will make people feel majestic as soon as they step out into the sun.
Chai Anping came to the group attending the mission. The embassy's magic carriage had stopped in the courtyard. As the leader, he took the lead and got on the carriage.
Sir William waved to him at the door with a smile. He was past the age of watching the excitement and had no intention of going with him.
"lets go."
The magic carriage slowly drove away from the embassy. As soon as it drove onto the main road, the decibels of the noise on both sides of the road began to rise straight up. Fortunately, the guards in Piltover were very experienced in this kind of scene and had already set up a dividing line yesterday.
, ensuring the smooth flow of the main line.
Of course, only a few of them will be open; most of the roads will be used for parades and carnivals.
Gun salutes bloomed continuously in the sky, and colorful ribbons flew.
The big bells in churches and auditoriums ring at intervals, adding a lively atmosphere to the festival.
As the embassy vehicles approached the venue, simple stalls gradually began to appear. Some were selling their own inventions, and some were already part of the "exhibition".
"It's so prosperous..."
Someone in the car couldn't help but sigh after watching this scene.
"One thing to say, one thing to say, it's true."
Chai Anping sat in the back row and did not participate in the chatter of his subordinates.
Standing on his shoulder was a blue bird that was invisible to others, chirping and talking to him with his mind.
The incarnation of Feng Nu was very talkative, telling him some secrets that only she knew.
Chai Anping also listened with great interest.
After driving for nearly an hour, they finally arrived at the venue where the opening ceremony of Evolution Day was held.
This is a huge venue that can accommodate tens of thousands of people. Most of the exhibits inside are inventions from major families this year. A few are rare items shipped from all over the world. Only a very small number of personal inventions can be stored in this venue.
Go inside.
In front of the venue, a red carpet covered half of the square, and a microphone stand stood on a high platform on the side.
Under the stage are hundreds of chairs symbolizing power and knowledge.
Only major members of the United Chamber of Commerce, scholars holding the "Forerunner's Staff", and master alchemists from Zaun are eligible to sit in these positions.
Of course, there are seats at the front where the missionaries from various countries on the mainland who came to watch the ceremony sit. On such an important day, of course, it is impossible for only the Demacia family to come to Pi City. Those small principalities on the mainland like it very much.
Join in the fun to show your "national prestige".
Those who come are usually princesses or princes of the country, so that they can barely get high-level treatment.
It would be even better if we could see each other by the way. Marriage between countries is on the way!
Noxus, which is a neighbor of Piltover, naturally sent people to come, but their location is far away from the Demacia mission, and they are not affiliated with the "Dragon Gate" Patrick family, so they basically don't
Will come to Demacia to cause trouble——
Problems are solved on the battlefield!
Especially now that the Demacia mission is flourishing in Piltover... they don't want to humiliate themselves.
Chai Anping and others were led by the waiter to their exclusive seats and sat down. The white robes full of the solemn characteristics of Demacia made them very conspicuous in the square, especially the "sparkling" Chai Anping was even more eye-catching.
He is also considered a man of the hour in Piltover, and he reports every day.
Unfortunately, those tea party invitations from beauties and innocent ladies failed to win the favor of the young hero, but they gave him many more fans in Piltover.
——He is truly a noble of Demacia! He is just different from those old snakeskins from Piltover!
Although it was not Chai Anping's intention, Demacia's reputation did seem to be lifted by him in one fell swoop.
On both sides of their mission was a small country from the southern continent, represented by a black-skinned princess. Chai Anping expressed his gratitude to her for her enthusiasm.
On the other side is the young head of the Philos family, Moira.
Moira played an important role in the last negotiation. If she hadn't conveyed the information, her grandmother would not have come to help the Demacia mission in person. If Camille hadn't been able to tell the truth, even if Chai Anping later
If we win, I'm afraid the tragedy at the embassy will not be avoided.
Therefore, Chai Anping still had a good attitude towards this powerless young family head.
"The day after tomorrow is the day when our Philos family will hold a crafts exhibition. Councilor Shelley, don't you want to agree to our invitation?"
Moira put on a pitiful look.
Chai Anping curled his lips slightly. The itinerary arranged by the embassy for him did not include Feros. After all, Feros' behavior was really unpleasant.
After making so many concessions, this is the first time the embassy has made a statement.
"I want to go too, Miss Moira." Chai Anping complained: "But I can only follow the mission's decision. Diplomacy is not a place to show off personal heroism."
"That's very well said, Senator Shelley!"
The black-skinned princess on the side complimented.
If she could marry into the noble group of Demacia, she would have a good home.
"Congressman is really ruthless. I have helped you so much. I would not go if I did not invite you personally this time. Even if I invite you to a tea party normally, you will still have an indifferent attitude..."
Moira complained: "Does the congressman really like young girls as those gossipy women claim?"
"puff!"
Chai Anping spat out a mouthful of water.
"What nonsense is this?"
"Of course, in addition to this, there are rumors that you are a uniform controller... Haha, this is all the fault of Sheriff Caitlin, who always does extraordinary things regardless of his identity."
Moira put eye drops on Caitlin and said with a smile: "You can't always refuse invitations from ladies. This will not only make the girls sad, but also easily spread bad rumors, especially in a place like Piltover."
This place... everyone likes to chat using the sound tube at night, and any news can be transmitted very quickly."
"..."
Chai Anping endured the teasing teasing of the wind girl on his shoulder while wiping the tea from the corner of his mouth.
He is now the face of Demacia, and I don’t know how many people are staring at him now...
As for the question Moira mentioned, even if they know that Lux exists, they have nothing to fear - they all welcome married women!
As long as they like you!
Chai Anping rolled his eyes: "Anyway, it's mostly gossip that doesn't make sense, so just ignore it!"
The knowledgeable and thoughtful expression of the black-skinned princess next to her made Chai Anping feel extremely uncomfortable. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the opening ceremony of Evolution Day to begin.
At this time, Chai Anping and the others were already crowded with well-known scholars and inventors. Heimerdinger also brought two of his students to the scene, one was Ike, and the other was his favorite student Yuna.
, the two of them were pointing at Chai Anping’s back and whispering.
Behind these scholars were the residents of Piltover who had marched here. Except for the steps provided by the venue to help provide a perspective, there were many moderators or technology tycoons showing off their skills.
Some directly climbed the wall and went directly to the roof, and some directly flew up on unknown flying chess, so that the Pi City guards on the scene had to separate some people to conduct air traffic control. If they jumped down, there would be a lot of people below.
Internet boss.
Chai Anping was astonished by the huge crowds in this scene. Of course, Demacia's Glory Competition did not give in too much, and he was considered a person who had seen the world.
The unimportant black-skinned princess next to her was shocked by the scene of roaring mountains and tsunami.
Soon, a figure rose from the metal platform in front of everyone.
Jason Myrdalda!
Generally speaking, the opening ceremony of Evolution Day is hosted by the contemporary head of the family of Myrdalda, but Gu Gu is greedy for Demacia's business, so he has not returned yet.
"First of all, welcome our friends who have come from across the ocean to celebrate with us..."
Chai Anping judged from his first sentence that the opening speech would never be short. Perhaps it was because the old man wanted to stay on stage for a while since it was a rare occasion.
Moira also had the same expression as him. She took out her fan and half-covered her face to cover the corners of her mouth to prevent being caught by reporters taking pictures, but Chai Anping, who was sitting next to her, could see it clearly.
Clearly.
Jason first welcomed a group of guests who came to watch the ceremony on behalf of Piltover, then praised Piltover's scholars, and finally highlighted Piltover's scientific research spirit.
After the three-part speech, Chai Anping had already begun to use clarifying potions to stimulate his spirit.
"Okay! That's great!"
"No wonder your Pi City can develop so prosperously!"
Black-skinned Princess: "I learned! I really got it!"
No, why are you so crazy about adding drama to yourself?!
Chai Anping looked sideways, this girl was almost dozing off just now and was hitting the timer, and yet she was applauding so enthusiastically... so that he and Moira had to keep up with the rhythm while laughing.
This is all right...
The blue bird had fallen asleep on his shoulder.
The opening ceremony of Evolution Day was very solemn. After Jason finally stepped down, the highlight of the opening ceremony was about to begin.
Piltover scholars will select the five most valuable inventions in the past year and display them one by one on the high platform. The inventor of each product will be awarded Piltover's Progress Medal, which is full of honors.
.
It is worth mentioning that Heimerdinger once directly took the top three spots one year and directly transformed from an unknown yordle to a senior professor at the Clock Academy.
It is precisely because of such inspiring examples that Evolution Day is welcomed by so many people.
This concept continues to drive the vigorous technological development of Pi City, so much so that you will never find such an advanced and prosperous city anywhere in the world.
