What an exciting night!
Qiao Weier hid all the tribute treasure chests in the secret room of the castle, and then announced that she was going to retreat, saying that she wanted to comprehend several chaos inscriptions.
In fact, Qiao Weier collected the treasure box in person. She didn't want the treasure box to be out of sight for half a minute, for fear that the tribute box would be stolen again. This means so much to her. Convincing Nonoya Jin and solving the bombing case is simply not worth mentioning!
"Lao Ye hasn't left seclusion yet?"
Zhang Mu asked for the second time.
Lei Ming shook his head and replied: "The effect of the Earth-Breaking Pill is not ideal. If I could use the Heaven-Building Pill, I would have succeeded. However, the energy near the room is getting stronger and stronger. I am afraid that a breakthrough is not far away."
Zhang Mu believes in Ye Qianqiu.
He will definitely be able to break through.
The current situation is a bit chaotic, with undercurrents surging inside and outside Zhonghai City. Zhang Mu needs a strong fighting force. If Ye Qianqiu can break through, there will definitely be no more than five humans in the world who can compete with Ye Qianqiu head-on. As for a sure winner, there will be no one, because even Zhang Mu cannot suppress it 100%.
One Ye Qianqiu is enough to block several powerful Heavenly Spirits of the same realm!
"Have the Eyes of Darkness been buried?"
Lei Ming nodded and said: "The two most capable groups of thieves and assassins in the group are dispatched to monitor the Dark Corner in all directions. If there is any movement, it will not escape our eyes."
Zhang Mu thought back for a few seconds and felt that everything was under control.
Some links may need to be improved, but there is just a lack of opportunity.
"Wood! Wood!"
Leng Yun suddenly ran into the room.
"What's up?"
"Look at the forum!"
A very eye-catching post appeared on the forum and was posted at the highest position. The colors of posts are usually gray or white, but this one is yellow. It can last for at least 48 hours and has a top effect for 1 hour. It is a very rare and precious post.
The post was titled: [Heaven mercenary "Gabriel" broke through the Heavenly Spirit Realm, held a grand wedding banquet, and invited colleagues from all walks of life in China] Zhang Mu raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Oh, a breakthrough! However, this is not What a surprise."
Leng Yun swallowed and said: "The content of the post!"
The mercenaries of Paradise praised Gabriel in large paragraphs, and at the same time extended invitations to many human masters, including the mercenary captains in the city, Liu Shuiyan, Huangquan’s Lei Ming, Leng Yun, Lin Caiyan and other famous figures, and even Du Rongrong, Qin Xiaoshi, etc. Among them, the people outside the city include several mercenary group leaders from the "Holy Rome", important leaders, key members including Huang Tian from the "Mercenary Union", Long Hao from the "Chinese Alliance" and Long Hao from the "Chinese Alliance". Hao member.
Gabriel invited everyone around Zhang Mu. Huang Tian who was far away in Xiahai City, Long Hao who was far away in Shanghai City, and Yang Guang who was far away in Bianhai City were all invited.
Only.
No Zhang Mu!
Zhang Mu's reputation in the clan is second to none. Gabriel deliberately left Zhang Mu out, which was a naked provocation and insult. Gabriel took advantage of the sensation caused by Breakthrough Tianling and stepped on Zhang Mu hard.
Leng Yun was very unhappy, "I'm going to say hello to Geng Feng Yue, but everyone should stay away. Send a message to Huang Tian and Long Hao again. No matter how good our friendship with you is, everyone will definitely be on your side." . If we don’t go to the banquet, I don’t believe that Gabriel will have any face!” Zhang Mu did not look angry at all, “You are stupid, you are eating and drinking for free, why don’t you go? Go, you must go! Everyone go together!"
"Gabriel has no good intentions. He clearly wants to ridicule you and damage your reputation in the human race. Don't you want to hide your strength? I think..."
"It doesn't really matter, I just want to have dinner." Zhang Mu said with a smile: "I don't mind going if he invites me. Now if he doesn't invite me, I still want to join in the fun."
Would Zhang Mu say such childish things
Leng Yun was a little confused.
"you sure?"
"Let everyone get ready and pick some nice clothes. We will go together later."
Gabriel directly booked a large hotel in the center of the city, probably no less than several thousand green crystal coins, and people from outside the city came to Zhonghai City early. Long Hao did not come in person on the grounds of seclusion, but sent Zhao Zhongguo, the deputy leader of the Chinese mercenaries, as a substitute. Dragon Soul Huang Tian also did not come in person on the grounds of performing an important mission, but he also sent his confidant Dong Zhan. , Yang Guang asked Fu Song to take his place. Some other famous mercenary groups rarely have their leaders personally present.
There is nothing that can be done about it. Who likes to fly all the way here just to watch and boast about themselves and get carried away? Each of the leaders of these famous mercenary groups is very busy, and many of them are already preparing to break into the realm of Tianling.
Zhang Mu and his group, all dressed in casual clothes, arrived as scheduled.
"Wait a minute, you're not on the invitation list, so you can't go in!"
Several white mercenaries stopped Zhang Mu below the hotel.
The mourning dog was furious, and rushed forward and grabbed the mercenary by the collar, lifting it up from the ground, "Asshole! Do you know who you are talking to?"
The white mercenary said coldly: "I don't know you! I just know that you are not allowed to enter without the invitation of the regiment leader!"
"you wanna die!"
"Get out of the way of the mourning dog!" The fat man raised a giant sword, "I'll chop him down!"
"stop!"
A faint voice came out.
"Since everyone is here, it would be rude to stop them outside. Don't let outsiders mistakenly think that the mercenaries of Paradise are not hospitable."
Du Rongrong was so angry that she wanted to summon a meteorite and smash the hotel to pieces on the spot.
Seeing the angry people, Zhang Mu shook his head and said, "Today is a good day, so we can't let it down, right? Don't worry about these details."
The mourning dog directly pushed the white mercenary to the ground, stepped on his face, and stepped over him. The fat man followed closely behind and stepped over with a heavy kick. Du Rongrong and others followed suit. Seeing this, Zhang Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
These guys have been with me for so long, and they still always show their happiness and anger on their faces and behaviors. When will they be able to become more cunning and smart!
The hotel lobby is the size of a track and field stadium, and the decoration is splendid and full of nobility and luxury. The best band and the most beautiful maids were invited for people to have fun. All kinds of delicacies were piled up in mountains. The wine flowed like a long river. It was extremely luxurious and grand. The scene of wine pool and meat forest was nothing more than that.
There are only about a thousand people in this large hall.
Gabriel held an exquisite crystal goblet and stood surrounded by some mercenary captains. His temperament had changed a lot compared to before. As dazzling as the sun god, with a faint golden light all over his body, and the powerful aura of the heavenly spirit realm, people can't help but respect him.
"The people from the Huangquan mercenaries are here." Gabrielle stepped forward with a cup and said in an elegant tone with a hint of apology, "Because Captain Zhang Mu was too busy with work, I couldn't include you in the list of invitees. Please forgive me. . ”
Zhang Mu waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay. It doesn't matter whether I write or not. Aren't I here?"
Gabriel frowned, Zhang Mu was not simple, there was always a thorn in his words. The implication is that I don't take you Gabriel seriously at all.
Level 39
I'm afraid I haven't even touched the threshold of the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
Where does confidence come from
Zhang Mu found a few familiar faces, including Dragon Soul mercenary Dong Zhan, Chinese mercenary Zhao Zhongguo, Liu Shuiyan, Sun Lin, and Wang Ling. No one was wearing combat attire, they were all dressed casually. Even Liu Shuiyan put on a noble black evening dress, which set off her unique temperament, cool and proud.
Gabriel said some polite words just to show his status.
It is undeniable that Gabriel can break through Tianling at such a fast speed, which is indeed a very remarkable thing. Especially for the middle and lower class mercenaries, the realm of heavenly spirit is an unattainable existence, and Gabriel's breakthrough immediately caused a sensation among this group, leading to a great increase in reputation.
As for the top-level mercenaries, they themselves are composed of human elites, and every elite is arrogant. Quite a few of them have touched the threshold of the Heavenly Spirit Realm and cannot break through the problem of time. They were originally unhappy with Gabriel taking the lead. But now that they heard Gabriel's speech, they lacked interest and did not like it.
The heaven mercenaries invited some singers and dancers, all of whom were rabbit girls, fox girls, and even low-level elves with thin elven blood.
They are all well-known groups in the city and are well-known among civilians. Some of the programs are quite unique and eye-opening to humans.
Of course.
In a world where power is respected, the status of stars in the entertainment industry is definitely not high. Whether they are singers, movie stars, or other obvious ones, there is actually no essential difference from prostitutes who sell meat on the street. They all provide entertainment services and mix things up. Just a meal.
"Hahaha..." Zhao Zhongguo walked up to Zhang Mu, "Brother Zhang, long time no see!"
Zhang Mu smiled and nodded in greeting, and then asked: "Brother Dragon Soul, how are you doing recently?"
Zhao Zhongguo replied: "Everything is fine."
Dong Zhan and Fu Song also approached Zhang Mu.
Liu Shuiyan, Sun Lin, Leng Yun, Lin Caiyan, Du Rongrong and other women were talking. Everyone was in groups, and no one paid attention to Gabriel. Fortunately, most of the members of Holy Rome were summoned. These people were already on the same page as Gabriel and were complimentary. There were also some small and medium-sized mercenary groups who actively pursued Gabriel, which made Gabriel very useful.
After watching several exciting programs, everyone started to have their own meal. Zhang Mu walked to a forest of barbecued meats. Each piece of barbecued meat was roasted deep red, with fragrant oil oozing from the surface, making people very appetizing at first glance. Zhang Mu took out a table knife from the cutlery rack and cut off half of the lamb hind leg meat as easily as he cut tofu.
"Everyone can dine as they please. All the money spent here tonight will be on my account. Later, we will prepare more interesting activities to ensure everyone's satisfaction."
Gabriel was in high spirits.
"Bah, it tastes so bad!"
Zhang Mu spit out the meat.
When Sun Lin saw it, she couldn't help but be startled: "These foods are all made by famous chefs, how can they be unpalatable?"
"A famous chef?" Zhang Mu shook his head. When he realized that everyone was looking at him, especially Gabriel's attention, he immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm a straight person and don't know how to speak. Please bear with me. "Said, he picked up a large plate of meat in front of him, poured it all on the ground, and took out a large portion of venison from the space backpack, "I have some food cooked by myself. It's a rare opportunity to get together, so I would like to invite you to taste it. two."
The entire hotel lobby was instantly enveloped in an alluring aroma.
The fragrance seems to be magical and can enchant people's hearts.
Everyone unanimously focused their attention.
Zhang Mu said: "Captain Gabriel successfully broke through to the realm of heavenly spirit, which is really gratifying. In fact, not long ago, I successfully broke through and became a master chef. I just want to present some food made by myself to celebrate, please Enjoy.”
The venison here is no ordinary venison.
It is a delicacy made from a certain kind of king-level venison, cooked with seasonings such as Western Sea salt and devil's oil. Looking at the entire Zhonghai City, it is difficult to find better food than this. Not only does it taste first-class, but it also has strong energy, can strengthen the body, and can even increase attributes and enhance strength.
"tasty!"
“What a delicious meal!”
"Hahaha, Captain Zhang Mu is not only powerful, but he also has such a unique skill that we didn't expect. It really makes us feel ashamed!"
After everyone tasted it, they were all full of praise.
Instead, the attention was focused on Zhang Mu.
Gabriel's expression was uncertain. At this time, he discovered that Zhang Mu suddenly withdrew from the crowd, walked towards Liu Shuiyan who was standing aside, and handed him a piece of food cooked by his own hands. Liu Shuiyan did not refuse. He inserted a piece of meat with a knife and put it into his mouth. He tasted it for two bites, nodded slightly and said, "Not bad."
Gabriel was instantly jealous.
During this period of time, Gabriel had very frequent contact with Liu Shuiyan, and never got a good look. Liu Shuiyan was like an iceberg that could not be melted away, but the more such a woman, the more fighting spirit Gabriel had. Gabriel is so proud, how can he tolerate Liu Shuiyan giving others a good look
Zhang Mu said a few words to Liu Shuiyan, and Liu Shuiyan immediately followed Zhang Mu to a quiet corner.
Gabriel moved aside and immediately concentrated on listening. As a powerful person at the Heavenly Spirit level, he could sense subtle energy changes in space, and could completely make sounds into lines. Even if they were far away, he could hear them. Got it crystal clear.
"Is there a problem?"
Liu Shuiyan frowned slightly, not used to talking to a man alone.
"I haven't seen you lately. Are you busy?"
Liu Shuiyan looked up at Zhang Mu and felt very strange in her heart. She knew Zhang Mu very well, but his behavior today was too abnormal.
"A little busy."
Liu Shuiyan was not as indifferent as dismissing ordinary men. After all, she and Zhang Mu were comrades who had fought side by side, and she also believed in Zhang Mu's character.
Zhang Mu looked around and lowered his voice and said, "I have an important mission. I wonder if you are interested in it. Do you know about the case of the tribute ship being robbed?"
"I've heard a little bit about this..."
"That's all I have to say."
In the distance, Gabriel's expression changed when he heard these words. He quickly turned around and drank red wine to cover up while eavesdropping more carefully.
Liu Shuiyan was also surprised: "Do you have news?"
Zhang Mu deliberately kept it a secret, "There are so many people with mixed ears, it's difficult to talk too much. Let's talk alone after dinner tonight, and I will tell you the details."
