"After all, after listening to the teachings and believing in the dark light, some people may want some of our local products, and people on our side may also want to see the local products of their world. Duke Maury can be responsible for helping both parties. Make your wish come true!”
Everyone was envious. Duke Maury was so lucky to be able to hold on to this huge job.
Duke Maury said calmly: "Archbishop Hells, are you referring to the world of Aliin? The first ones to discover them were actually the Air Alliance people. Those bumpkin must have sent people to seize resources first, and the people in the night Companies should not be far behind... We are still moving too slowly.”
Hells sighed and said:
"After all, 'that one' is not interested in this kind of thing. Alas, he is worried about big things related to the survival of the world. I'm afraid he has no idea about our trivial matters. But in fact, if the entire country wants to operate normally, there will be no problem anywhere. Resources are needed.”
Hells shook his head slightly. The 'one' he was talking about naturally referred to the spiritual leader of the church, the only one with sequence zero... the incarnation of dim light.
Duke Maury looked calm and said seriously:
"It is true. Without 'that one', everyone will lack a piece of faith in their hearts, but without you, the people in the entire country will not have enough to eat."
Archbishop Hells laughed after hearing this.
"Hahahahahaha! It's too much! It's too much! How can I be so powerful!"
A smile appeared on Duke Maury's plain face, and he suddenly asked: "By the way, Your Highness Eve is still not coming out?"
"Her?" Archbishop Hells fell into deep thought after hearing this.
His impression of this girl was not good.
After all, she was a girl who was known for being moody, arrogant, and often embarrassing others with her words.
Just then, they heard someone exclaim.
Duke Maury paused and said indifferently:
"It looks like Her Highness Eve has come out."
Archbishop Hells and Duke Maury turned their heads and looked at the woman in the light white gold-rimmed evening dress who was in the center of everyone's sight under the shining lights.
She is like an angel who has fallen into the world, her fair and delicate skin is as white as jade, her sweet smile is intoxicating, her short pink hair looks very dazzling under the light, and her beautiful pair of bright eyes are extremely smart and lively.
"Saviour, how beautiful she is!"
"Simply the work of the Savior!"
"It is our honor to meet His Highness Aifu!"
Praises poured in for the most beautiful girl in Annotales!
It's not just flattery, it's more sincere.
At the edge of the banquet, a man wearing a close-fitting black suit and having the air of a superior was patiently taking his meal, watching this scene silently.
"The aroma of foie gras is so strong no matter how many times I smell it..."
Bai Yan ate the foie gras in silence, feeling very sad that the character he created should not overeat, but should chew slowly.
He stared at the "innocent singer" who was the center of everyone's attention. Sure enough, the real person was much prettier than the pixel drawing.
And sure enough, they were sisters, with exactly the same faces.
Although the "Innocent Singer" was the only wet nurse in the original character of "Tower of Babel", her breasts were actually a little smaller than those of her twin sisters... He didn't know why he was struggling with this kind of thing.
The "old friend" standing next to Bai Yan, Baroque, the senior priest of the Church of Darkness, is a middle-aged man with gray hair on his temples and a flat nose. His memory has been modified.
He picked up the red wine glass and said with a smile:
"Viscount Edmond, my friend, how about it? After seeing it with your own eyes, do you think our Highness Eve is a perfect girl?"
Bai Yan didn't know how to evaluate it for a while.
The "Innocent Singer" is indeed very beautiful. There is absolutely no one more beautiful than her among 10,000 people.
But I have indeed seen people who are not inferior to her.
Therefore, if I say that she is perfect, it must be against my will.
"She is indeed perfect."
Then Bai Yan went against his will, and no money was deducted anyway.
"It is really an honor for me to meet His Highness Aif today. Thank you very much, Baroque." He said perfunctorily with a smile.
Baroque smiled and said: "We are all old friends, please don't say these things."
He and the Shepherd are both high-ranking priests, but in fact his extraordinary power is only at the level of a quasi-monarch, and the level of his soul is in the material world.
So poor Baroque was played by Bai Yan and had no idea that his memory had been modified.
Bai Yan continued: "I just don't know if I will have a chance to communicate with Her Highness Eve alone."
Baroque immediately looked embarrassed. This kind of thing is really difficult:
"Well, Edmund, it shouldn't be easy for you... and me to do this."
He actually wanted to say "in your capacity", but he was afraid that his words would embarrass "Viscount Edmond", so he added himself later.
Baroque continued to explain: "Her Royal Highness Eve is the most beautiful pearl in this city. Her status is unreachable by ordinary people. Some people even doubt whether she will become the youngest saint. Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary people to meet someone like her alone. .”
Baroque paused and showed a smile that all men understand.
"Edmond, I advise you to forget about her. Sooner or later, she will officially join the church. Those things about men and women have nothing to do with His Highness Ive."
Bai Yan smiled slightly, he had a way to talk to the noble Prince Ai Fu alone.
He even asked her to come to him on her own initiative.
Bai Yan must go through Eve's line to find the "key" to the ultimate ritual required to become a god.
If he remembered correctly, the "key" was actually underground in the Temple of Darkness.
And that large palace called "Dark Light Temple" is where the incarnation of Dark Light and the divine attendants live. It is almost impossible to lurk in it.
Only the adopted daughter of Dark Light, the "Innocent Singer" Eve, who also lives there, has the chance to help her secretly get the "key" out.
—
The banquet is over.
After returning to the temporary room in the mansion, Eve sat silently in front of the dressing table. The original dazzling smile had completely disappeared, replaced by a kind of arrogance and impatience.
The maids were very afraid of her and carefully helped the girl remove her makeup, fearing that the "princess" would be angry.
Her Highness the "Princess" was moody and would get irritable and angry for no reason from time to time. Sometimes she would even beat her servants to pieces if she disagreed. Everyone knew this.
Moreover, she knows how to enjoy herself very much, and she enjoys all the good things comfortably every day, which is completely different from other saints in the upper echelons of the Dark Light Church who are accustomed to asceticism.
In short, Eve's reputation has not been very good.
Eve looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly said: "It's really strange. Why do I always feel like someone is touching my head recently..."
Carol, is this the case where you are
Eve took a deep breath and said, "Have you brought all the delicious food?"
The maids nodded and quickly brought out a lot of delicious food. Eve picked them up expressionlessly and enjoyed them one by one.
At the banquet just now, she kept talking and smiling, her face almost twitching with laughter, but she didn't even eat anything.
Very hungry!
Just then, her maid came in and said:
"Your Highness, someone just brought you a message, saying that he has something very important to discuss with you. Well, he wants to see you privately and alone."
Eve asked casually: "Who is it?"
"A viscount who just came from out of town, his name is Edmond."
Eve was stunned for a long time and sneered: "What, a country viscount? Now that he is a cat and a dog, do you think he can meet me alone?"
"Let him go!"
she suddenly shouted impatiently.
The roar was so sudden that all the other maids were startled and trembling.
Only the maid, who had long been used to it, just nodded, turned around and wanted to leave. She said one more thing at the end.
"By the way, he said it was something related to 'Carol'."
"Wait a moment!"
Eve stood up from her seat with shock in her eyes.
Carol! is her! Is it really her
Chapter 257: Unexpected Mission: Midnight Demon
After the banquet, the sky was already as dark as ink.
Bai Yan's eyes gradually returned to normal, the silvery white faded, and he turned and left the mansion.
In the carriage, Carol was waiting calmly, with an expressionless face, her hands neatly placed on her knees, and her black and white maid uniform was still meticulous.
She had no idea that she was only a few hundred meters away from her once most important sister.
Bai Yan sat opposite her, smiled and nodded.
Carol immediately turned sideways and knocked on the car and the front partition.
"drive."
After returning to Tulip Manor, Carol opened the car door. After Bai Yan got out of the carriage, she followed him out.
"I always feel that life now is too corrupt, which was unimaginable a few months ago..."
Bai Yan was lost in thought, knowing that the girl behind him still carried a box of toothpicks with him. If he had stuffed his teeth at the banquet just now, she would even pick his teeth for him.
Is this the treatment enjoyed by nobles...
Bai Yan, Bai Yan, you can't continue to degenerate like this!
Keep falling like this!
Wouldn’t you be so happy
He has been thinking this a lot in his mind recently and feels that he should control it a little bit.
After thinking about it, Bai Yan walked into the mansion of Tulip Manor. After entering, Carol immediately came over to help him take off his coat.
He hesitated for a moment, knowing that Carol's "super intuition" was very powerful. In order to avoid making mistakes in playing "Viscount Edmond", he still continued to fall.
So Bai Yan obediently asked her to take off her coat.
Carol handed the coat to the other servants. As a personal servant, she did not do everything herself.
In fact, in real big families, many people pay attention to "one person, one thing", that is, one servant will be responsible for each thing. For example, this servant is responsible for turning off the lights every night, and that servant is responsible for taking care of the snuff bottle.
Bai Yan's rules here are still not top-notch.
As usual, Bai Yan returned to his room and stood in front of the dressing mirror.
"Master, you should go home early these days."
While Carol was changing clothes, she said calmly: "A midnight demon appeared in the Seventh City District. It kills people in the dead of night. There have been several victims so far."
"Um."
Bai Yan, who put on his pajamas, nodded lightly, nonchalantly, not focusing on it.
What is more important now is of course the matter about the "innocent singer".
He had just mind-controlled Eve's personal maid and asked her to deliver information to him without any mistakes.
"Then, at this time tomorrow, "Her Royal Highness" Eve will find a way to sneak out and meet her at the designated place."
And with the Carol card in his hand, Eve will definitely be obedient... Coupled with the psychic power of the "little milk dog", Bai Yan has full confidence in controlling her.
Carol felt that the name Eve was somewhat familiar, but she couldn't remember it.
She also wondered why the "host" of the Mercury Ball hadn't contacted her recently.
Perhaps, he should try the assassination again.
"Carol, you can go out, I'm going to bed soon."
After Bai Yan finished speaking, he didn't wait for a response.
As a result, he turned around and saw that she was doing squats on the same spot again, with a serious look that was so funny.
