308 The Queen’s Deacon [Monthly Pass Plus]
Luo Ning has always thought that the royal family of the Crotal Empire should be an elegant and mature princess who is distinguished and cold-hearted and does not eat human fireworks.
As a result, he saw it today.
Isn’t it a little girl.
The man on the stage with the granny ash on his head kept fetching meals for Princess Sophia, while the Princess was leaning back on the chair and eating one bite after another, like a little hungry wolf released from the imperial castle, eating dessert unscrupulously…
Luo Ning looked at this scene, his brows furrowed in doubt.
However, the princess eats it happily, but her movements can be considered a bit elegant for the time being.
She took small sips, each spoonful of just the right amount of evenness, and even her pursed red lips chewed surprisingly consistently.
This elegance is very different from the Raz who eats his face on a plate.
“Lord Luoning, are you going to stop Raz…”
Wendy stayed by Luo Ning’s side all the time. She looked at Raz, who was on the ground, and was a little worried.
“No,” Luo Ning shook his head, his eyes silently locked on the ‘grandma gray’ deacon.
The deacon came down the steps and left Sophia’s side.
This time, he didn’t go to the table to get food, but followed the aisle by the wall and disappeared around the corner.
After all, she was the person next to the princess, and Luo Ning still cared about this man.
But this person doesn’t even guard the princess anymore, and if he leaves suddenly, there must be something wrong…
There were many people in the huge hall, but after taking a closer look, Luo Ning found that the people who stayed here were basically noble ladies, or some graceful women, and they couldn’t even see a man.
And those who were wearing imperial armor and commoners were also missing.
Where did the gang slip away?
“Wendy, have you seen the old country… Lord City Lord and Principal Maria?”
Luo Ning asked Wendy.
Wendy shook her head: “I didn’t see Lord City Lord after I came in… Is Lord City Lord physically inconvenient to participate in such an occasion?”
“It should be going to the conference hall,” Luo Ning looked away from the corner, “Wendy, you are here with Raz, and I will leave for a while.”
Saying that, Luo Ning grabbed the back of Wendy’s hand and patted it lightly, then walked away from the long table and walked in the direction where the deacon disappeared.
This dinner can’t be as simple as having a meal and dancing on the surface.
Perhaps the carefully arranged sweets and fruits are indeed to please the princess, but more, it is to arrange the preparations for this invasion war.
It is necessary to discuss countermeasures. Leaving aside the practices and ambitions of the Empire, as far as the results are concerned, the Empire is indeed a successful careerist, and it is impossible for them to start a war between different races without complete preparation.
Unless they have a certain degree of certainty, the operation will continue.
Luo Ning wanted to see what their trump card and grasp were.
And, how do they want to break through such a hard demon barrier?
The fragile physique of the human species is destined to be unable to break through the upper limit of magic power since its birth.
And the light magic that Luo Ning used yesterday, its power has steadily exceeded the limit of human beings.
Across the hallway lit by magic lamps, there is a side room next to the main hall.
The door to the side room was not closed, and Luo Ning could hear the conversations of the people inside.
“Lord City Lord, it would be great if you could cooperate with us like this. Don’t worry, it won’t take long for King Yilan City to regain its freedom.”
“After this war is over, the empire will have frequent exchanges with the newly recovered Demon Territory. At that time, Yilan King City will be a transportation fortress connecting the two places, and the rapid development of Yilan King City is just around the corner…”
“You are a wise man, Lord City Lord, if you are willing to follow the empire like this, the empire will surely donate generously in the future to make your city the second largest town in the world!”
In the conference room, at the round table, men in twos and threes sat beside the old king.
Those people’s voices were mild and low, with fake smiles on their faces, and they whispered bewitchingly like a demon in the old king’s ear.
Luo Ning couldn’t be more clear about this kind of talk.
Isn’t it just drawing cakes, this kind of blueprint and talking about the future before the actual action starts, Luo Ning has seen a lot on the earth in the 21st century.
Unfortunately, the old king is not a simple person.
He nodded with a smile, and said polite words of thanks to the empire.
It’s hard to say for a while, who would lie to who between them.
“The civilian vanguard in your city is about to be sorted out. In the past two days, the empire will break the barrier of the demons. At that time, our ‘civilian heroes’ may be the first to enter… When they return in triumph , they are the first batch of imperial heroes.”
Beside the old king, the voice of the man with ‘grandma gray’ on his head suddenly sounded, which made the old king’s face stiffen for a moment when he laughed.
It is called ‘the triumphant return’, but in fact, everyone present knows that this is for them to die.
At the same time, in every dangerous war with the demons, he must be a victim in order to find out the terrain and environment.
Although these were all expected by the old king, when he heard with his own ears that the empire wanted to send his city people to death, the old king was inevitably fluctuated.
“Lord City Lord.”
Before the old king showed any abnormality, Luo Ning pushed open the door and walked in.
He first bowed slightly towards the old king, and then set his eyes on ‘Grandma Hui’.
“This lord, the civilian team, the city lord has been making preparations all the time, you don’t have to worry about that.”
Luo Ning held the corner of his mouth and smiled at him.
The deacon with the granny gray on his head was sitting on the chair closest to the door. His legs were crossed. Facing Luo Ning’s appearance, he pushed his single-sided glasses without a trace.
This person has a certain degree of familiarity with Luo Ning, but isn’t he the common man who tried to talk to His Highness Sophia just now.
He glanced at Luo Ning and reconfirmed Luo Ning’s outfit that was quite cheap for the royal family.
The deacon smiled gracefully: “Who is this?”
“This is the magician of our royal city, ‘Luonin’.”
Principal Maria, who was standing behind the old king, took a step forward.
Her thin high-heeled shoes stepped on the ground, and her voice was quite crisp.
Maria grabbed the corner of Luoning’s clothes and pulled it back.
She was signaling Luo Ning not to mess around. After all, Luo Ning’s aggressive steps were almost hitting the imperial minister’s face.
“Hello, it’s very rude to meet for the first time.”
Luo Ning raised the corner of his mouth with a slight smile, and took the initiative to stretch out a hand towards the deacon.
The handshake ceremony still works in the empire, at least in the main hall, Luo Ning saw the way they greeted each other.
The deacon raised his eyebrows and looked at Luo Ning jokingly.
He was very interested in the ‘magic’ in front of him.
Although he is also a magician, he did not even feel the slightest magic power from Luo Ning’s body.
