Arcane Lord

In the end, Hildalanna did not respond to Shado's promise of political asylum, but she suggested that Oripus could contact her after the Midwinter Festival, and she would personally arrange the entry of the Tower of Time Void Warehouse into the Yeerlan Market.

Shado expressed his gratitude to Hildalanna, and then asked her some details about the Ye Erlan banquet, and then left the secret room of Thesrodia tree.

The location when he left was different from the one when he entered. Although it was still in the city of Theslodia, it was separated by more than one branch, which made him take a long detour before he returned to Naibu in the city of Saratodia. Color embassy.

But this time, before he could sit on the stool to warm it up, Philipfa came again, but instead of asking Chateau to go to the appointment, he came to the embassy in person.

As the advisor of Crown Prince Helion, and because he had interacted with the other party before in Metril, Shado did not stay away from him, but met with him in the reception room of the embassy.

"Consultant Philipfa, do you have any advice for coming here this time?"

"There's no point in giving advice. I'm just here to explain two things to Lord Xia Duo in the name of King Mian."

"oh?"

Sha Duo immediately realized that what the other party wanted to explain was probably the specifications of the dinner two days later, or to test what he and Hildalanna talked about. He didn't think that meeting Hildalanna in Taivimansa could hide it from Her. King Li Enmian.

"Consultant Philifa, please speak——"

"The first thing is related to the midwinter dinner two days later. Due to some special circumstances in Yeerlan, the specifications of the dinner were not clearly informed to you in advance. King Mian asked me to come over now to explain to you, and also informed that the dinner the day after tomorrow is a grand banquet. , and ask about your dietary preferences and taboos.”

There is no need for Philipfa, the consultant of the Crown Prince, to handle this matter personally. Xia Duo knew that this was definitely not the main purpose. It seemed that the latter thing was the real purpose.

While Xia Duo was thinking, Philipfa did not stop explaining, "The second thing is also related to the grand banquet two days later. Of course, this matter also has a certain relationship with Your Excellency.

"After the Metril incident, we discovered a demon family that had been lurking for a long time. King Mian and the Council decided to launch an action during the grand banquet. For this purpose, they came to inform Lord Shado that no matter what happens at the grand banquet, there is no need to Worry, everything is under the control of King Mian and the Parliament.”

I see!

Xia Duo suddenly figured out everything. Ye Erlan probably didn't want to launch an action during the grand banquet, but for this operation, they raised the standard of the normal dinner to the level of a grand banquet.

Judging from the importance that King Helion and the Council attached to this operation, the demon family that has been lurking for a long time is probably not a weak family. It is probably very powerful, so powerful that it requires a specially designed trap for an ambush.

Chateau didn't expect that there were so many calculations behind a celebration dinner. On the surface, this banquet was to honor those who contributed to the Metril incident.

Going a little deeper, King Mian wants to use the Metril incident to consolidate local administrative power. This is the easiest to see. It is also something Hildalanna does not want to see and is ultimately unavoidable. But now it is really in advance. It's coming, and it's coming so fast.

Going a little deeper, it is the true purpose of King Helian Mian, who wants to capture the lurking demon family.

Apart from this, Xia Duo couldn't guess whether he had any other plans, but at least it was a grand banquet that was rare in many years. If he were the crown prince of Ye Erlan, he would definitely make full use of it.

But in any case, this matter has nothing to do with him. He just came here to eat and drink and receive the official reward for the previous Metril incident.

"Which family has been infiltrated by the demon? What are you going to do at the big banquet?"

Although he knew that Philipfa would not be able to tell him the particularly confidential details easily, Shado still asked, just because he wanted more.

The extra rewards Ye Erlan gave him through the Northern Alliance Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory did not satisfy him. That is to say, those extra rewards were given in the name of the Northern Alliance, so Xia Duocai did not have an attack.

Now he wanted to see what else Ye Erlan could offer as a formal reward.

"Lord Shado, before the operation started, even I didn't know the identity of the target, let alone the details of the operation during the banquet. I'm sorry that I can't answer your questions."

"Didn't you say that everything is under the control of King Helion and the Council? If I don't know the identity of the demon, if I accidentally sit next to the demon at the banquet, how will I know that I will not be accidentally injured? Woolen cloth?"

"I'm sorry, I really don't know this."

After saying that, Philifa hesitated again. Although he was very confident that Shado would not be accidentally injured by the demons or their actions, this was indeed a hidden danger.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Let me ask for instructions from Prince Mian."

"Please."

Taking advantage of Philip's opportunity to contact the crown prince, Chateau picked up the teacup and drank tea as a cover-up, summoning Ambassador Fimaai to ask about the other party's knowledge of the midwinter dinner two days later.

Ambassador Fimaai took him to visit the embassy before, but did not mention the dinner two days later. He did not expect the dinner to be a big banquet at the time, so he never thought of asking the other party.

If it were an ordinary commendation dinner, Chateau, Doom and Scott, who were in Metril at the time, would attend. Without Ambassador Fermae, the most likely would be a formality, but generally they would not even be invited. have.

But if it is a grand banquet, then Feimae cannot be avoided. In an occasion of this size, neither Shado, Scott, nor Doom, who serves in the Northland Alliance, can represent Netheril. We have to let Feimae pass.

So when Philifa told him that Erlan would take action at the grand banquet two days later, Shado wanted to ask Feimae if he knew about these situations.

And now, Fermae’s answer is——

"I just received the exact news that the Midwinter Dinner in two days will be a grand banquet. I didn't mention it before, so there is no definite news yet, but there were indeed signs of preparations for the grand banquet in Taivimansa."

As for the demon-hunting operation at the grand banquet mentioned by Philipar, Fermae expressed no knowledge, but the master also mentioned, "I will go to the palace later to meet with King Helion and ask about the specific situation in two days." , please wait for my news, Lord Xia Duo.”

So Xia Duo quickly ended the interrogation, and Philipfa was naturally not too slow, and he also proposed a compromise plan to Xia Duo on behalf of King Mian:

"King Mian pays special attention to Lord Xia Duo's concerns. However, in order to ensure the smooth operation, the identity of the target cannot be revealed in advance. However, King Mian agreed to give you special spellcasting authority to deal with the changes during the banquet."
