Chapter 104 Roger's strength exposed
Fengling Moon Shadow Palace, the inner hall.
The Queen of Eternal Night floated in front of the locker directly on the top of the main hall, opened the small drawers, and while waiting for the official opening of the dance, she compared and selected jewelry suitable for tonight's dance.
The sparkling gems always have a fatal attraction to women, even if they are as strong as the Queen of Eternal Night, they have not passed their consciousness checks.
On the road to sweeping the kingdoms, countless nobles and grandchildren didn't know how many years of accumulation, selected and collected rare treasures, and finally put them all into the Queen's private "Jewelry box".
All hanging out, the kind of big box that can open a jewelry exhibition.
But there are too many good things and there are troubles.
You can't wear everything you like or look good in, right?
Although the choice of adults is all I want, the picture reads astonishingly the whole world, it is written that the jewelry store moved, and then it became a world-famous painting.
"Anyway, I don't know what that kid is wearing today?"
The magical aura of the Queen of Eternal Night flashed between her fingers.
On the palm of her hand, concrete and a tiny model of the main hall of the Xinghan Palace appeared, with countless villains coming and going back and forth.
The next second, she found Roger's location through the magic beacon.
This is her territory, no one will be able to spot it if you peep.
Let's not talk about magic skills, let's count how many back doors she has left in the protective magic circle of Xinghan Palace...
The Queen of Eternal Night opened the screen and zoomed in again, and soon her eyes as deep as the sea lit up, revealing a slightly satisfied smile.
Hmph, at least it didn't embarrass me!
First of all, I must affirm Angelina's aesthetics, and secondly, I must say that the lighting in Xinghan Palace is really good.
In the end, she reluctantly admitted that although some people were incapable of talent, they still have good skin.
Tonight, Roger was naturally dressed up by his sister.
A brand-new black dress, made by the empire's top fashion masters, is well-cut, with a slender figure, and the Charles family crest is drawn on the chest with dark silver lines.
In addition, there are not too many decorations, and the design is minimal, but it tests the aesthetics of the maker and the temperament of the wearer.
In addition, a small but delicate magic circle was attached to this dress, which was lit by the fire magic that Roger automatically absorbed, and there were a few mischievous and lively fire elements on his shoulders and above his head.
No matter what his real strength is, at first glance, He must be a very handsome and powerful young magician!
This is the light pollution costume featured in Evernight World, also known as the magician's dress.
Because of the above magic circle, the mage must be driven by his magic power. People who only have an ordinary identity and no strength wear ordinary clothes.
This kind of dress has high requirements for the master. Not only does it have to be cut, but the level of magic cannot be poor. The fashion masters who can make it in the empire are also counted on one hand.
Even if there are no additional attributes, each set costs thousands of gold coins to start, which can be regarded as wearing a luxury house on the body.
Even more time-consuming to make, Roger's set is not a temporary rush, instead, Angelina has already prepared it for him, and now he has the magician's strength worthy of this dress.
After all, with special effects, if you don't play well, you will kill Matt and plastic online games.
But if you play well and have a good appearance and figure, then it is a little dress with legendary special effects.
To know that there are so many powerful magicians in the Evernight World, the demand for concave-shaped clothing will not be as simple as a marquee.
Originally from home, he knew his true strength, and Roger refused to wear such an eye-catching dress.
Even on Earth, he is out of the street in black and white, and he can't accept the cool outfits of trendy men.
But Angelina was happy that her younger brother had made a great contribution on the front line, and broke through the strength problem that has been criticized, forcibly pressed him to the bed, and put on the magician dress that she had prepared for a long time.
Then, from head to toe, I sorted him out one by one, and then let him go out.
The Queen of Eternal Night dresses up the Right Prime Minister, the Right Prime Minister dresses up her younger brother, and the younger brother's voice dresses up the Queen...
Fate, it's indescribable.
For the first time in his life, Roger dressed like a lightbulb and felt uncomfortable all day.
Until I came to the Xinghan Palace, I saw the exaggerated special effects on the magicians, the fireballs exploded and the dragon roared behind me, and my sister made this for me...
There is absolutely nothing wrong with saying that low-key luxury has connotations.
At the very least, our aristocratic young ladies are ranked No. 1 among their peers in the rate of turning heads. All of them are stunning, and they have not been shocked!
So when the Queen of Eternal Night looked over, Roger had come out of the state of incompatibility with the magician's dress.
He dealt with the nobles at the meeting quite comfortably, enjoying the scorching eyes that fell on him from time to time, eating and drinking.
Just waiting for the prom to start, finish a dance with little Joey, break the Queen's curse and keep your feet, even if you complete the task tonight!
"Hey, I didn't have any eye-catching jewelry in this fight against the orc tribe. It's not as good as fighting the elf empire!"
The Queen of Eternal Night was fiddling with her jewelry, and she was hesitant to choose. Seeing Roger's outfit tonight, she suddenly had a direction.
…
…
More than one gaze was on Roger.
Including another focus tonight, Cornelia Carleton, who attracted the attention of young nobles after entering the stage.
Her long purple hair has two pointed tips on the top of her head, and then two ponytails that go all the way to her waist. She has puff sleeves, a princess dress, black stockings, and high heels. Although she is petite, her figure is well proportioned.
The eldest lady who usually lives in the Duchy of South Carleton doesn't have the "Rusty" commonplace of local aristocrats. Instead, she has delicate makeup, a fashionable hairstyle, and almost perfect matching costume jewelry.
Even the smallest actions of drinking, talking, and bowing the head are all charming and devilishly charming.
As a princess, Cornelia is quite confident and proud. At the age of sixteen, she was full of youthful spirit, a little wild and bold, which makes many people have the urge to tame this little wild horse.
It's just that her eyes, like most of the noble ladies tonight, always followed Roger Charles, which made many people feel sad.
Whoever made that trash brother, the Khenpo Sak Desert, become famous in the first battle, and even the "Long Live the Queen" boasted, and she was naturally a woman of the hour at such a dance.
But there were always people who believe that opportunities have to be created by themselves.
Earl Buck Lindsay, his father died in the Empire's war against the Veronica Dynasty, he inherited the title and joined the army.
This year, he is twenty years old, already a colonel and he is one step closer to becoming a magus.
In addition, there is news that he has a lot to do with some underground industries in Aodu. He often has exclusive information and takes the first step to make the family business prosperous.
She is very busy with her career and cultivation and has yet to solve a lifelong event.
In Odu, Earl Lindsay is also considered to be the fifth king of Diamonds. Nobles who want to be married can step over the threshold, but they still have not agreed.
He is waiting for a lady who can make his heart move, and whose family and status can help him.
Tonight, Cornelia caught his attention as soon as she appeared.
Asking about that girl's identity, Earl Lindsay began to hesitate.
The Duke of South Carleton has a bad reputation, but he is also a duke and an important military minister.
Climbing up to his house and using it properly should benefit his future development...
And Cornelia is indeed doing very well!
After drinking the sparkling wine in the goblet, Earl Lindsay combed his hair and walked to Cornelia with confident steps, bowing gracefully he said:
"Beautiful lady, can I ask you to dance to the opening?"
Cornelia's eyes flickered, and she answered with a little shyness, "Yes... But can I ask you one thing first?"
"A gentleman will not refuse an invitation from a lady."
"Then please, Lord Count, help me bring this glass of wine to Master Charles!"
She pushed the cocktail she had just prepared to Earl Lindsay.
"?"
Earl Lindsay cracks
At the Imperial Ball, if a woman is embarrassed to directly invite a man to dance, she can give a hint with a glass of wine, and the other party agrees after drinking.
So this wave is probably equivalent to confessing to the girl you like, and then she asks you to hand over a love letter to the official school curator.
Earl Lindsay wanted to throw the cup and leave.
"I'm sorry, Lord Count, I took the liberty."
But Cornelia lowered her head next, pointed her finger, and whispered pitifully, "Tonight, so many excellent girls are watching Master Charles, I know I am very self-sufficient and will be rejected, but I still want to try it……"
Earl Lindsay suddenly felt restless in his heart to lick the dog, and raised the glass of wine, "I have a way to make him drink it."
Cornelia raised her head in surprise, covered her mouth, and refused, "This is too presumptuous, I don't need to trouble you!"
"This is a gentleman's promise."
Lindsay turned resolutely towards Roger.
If there is test magic slapped on Nilia's face, you will hear:
The power of Angelic bitch, top level!
…
…
The other end of the venue.
Little Joey met a few classmates from the Imperial Academy of Magic. Roger let her go to catch up with the old days. He continued to eat and drink as the young master of the Charles family and the Marquis of La Capas, waiting for the ball to start.
He doesn't like this extravagant and relaxed atmosphere but he can't say he hates it either.
That's it, don't behave badly, just embarrass your sister.
There was a noble girl who had an appointment to dance or bring wine, and he made excuses to refuse, "Although I want to drink, an arrow was shot in the liver during the battle, and it takes time to warm up."
Although it's a bad excuse, it's always gentler than a clear rejection, and a girl can only accept it with regret.
Then Earl Lindsay stepped forward.
He held a glass of champagne in his right hand and handed a cocktail in his left hand to Roger. He said gracefully, "It's an honor to meet you, Master Roger."
Roger nodded with a smile, and said skillfully, "Although I want to..."
"Let's stop playing this set. You've been shot in the liver, and the Charles family's financial resources can cure you."
Earl Lindsay lowered his voice and said, "I know top-secret news that is not good for the Right Chancellor, so I can only tell my friends."
He held the sky blue in his hand, like a cocktail with layers of clouds rolling, and handed it to Roger again.
Roger blinked as if this guy was saying, drinking is a friend?
He knew this person. In the game's plot, he was an intelligence dealer who wandered into the gray area. On the surface, he was greedy for money and lust, but he could be regarded as a diehard loyalist to the empire.
And this venue also has a magic circle to detect harmful substances. Even if you play the routine of "Non-toxic substances combined are highly toxic", it is impossible to harm the imperial nobles.
What's more, you have the heart of the ocean, so drinking a glass of wine won't kill you, right?
"My friend's wine, even if my liver bursts, I have to take a drink!"
Roger took the glass, took a sip, and looked at Earl Lindsay.
Earl Lindsay whispered, "Some people don't want to see the state farm promoted by the Right Prime Minister, they want her to take some time off..."
While clinking glasses, he handed a note to Roger.
Originally, this was a message that I had to find a way to pass on to Nightingale, but it just happened to be used to fulfill a wish for Cornelia.
I just hope that this young master is smart enough not to cause trouble.
…
…
At the other end, Cornelia seemed to be chatting with her best friends, but out of the corner of her eye, she kept looking in Roger's direction.
Seeing Earl Lindsay come forward to talk a few words, make him raise his glass and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
She played with a small ruby adorned on her dress, watching its color change to orange, and then stopped when it was almost yellow.
"This is a junior magician, about to break through the strength of the intermediate level... So Master Charles was born with strong spiritual power, which caused his father to be injured, but his body's magic power is very low?"
Cornelia showed a hint of surprise.
Poisoning can't be done at the dance, but it's easy to cast some hidden magic test methods that won't hurt the body.
For example, the magic phenol pulp mixture she chose this time is a colorless and odorless potion that can display the target magic power level after taking it.
This is not a combat method, but a method to confirm the apprentice's strength. It is slow to take effect, troublesome to take, and expensive. The advantage is that it is accurate enough.
She wrote down the message and recalled the long, tedious task list she got.
After this step, there are several alternative branches.
[If the target's strength is below the legendary level, the news will be made public, and the authenticity will be confirmed through the reaction of the nobles]
"This is too cautious, isn't it? That's the highest precision magic phenol pulp of 500 gold coins! Do you need a second confirmation?"
Cornelia frowned, thinking that the person who wrote this task might be seriously ill!
But there was no way. Last night, she was in a hurry to get a "Personally customized" magic makeup set, and without reading the agreement, she accidentally signed a very dangerous soul contract.
If you don't meet the requirements of the other party, your soul will be taken away and burned in the flames for a thousand years!
This is too terrifying; the task is not difficult, and it seems that it will not directly hurt anyone, so she is ready to try to complete it first.
It took a lot of thought to let Roger drink, but then to spread the news, you just need to pretend to leak it accidentally.
And, don't let people doubt themselves.
…
…
In the bathroom,
A young man with blond hair rushed into the compartment, but he didn't finish the task of emptying his intestines for a long time. His face was flushed and he was very bored.
Suddenly he saw some fragments in the trash, which didn't look like toilet paper.
Subconsciously, he used a trick "Reduction technique".
"Magic test... The tester, Roger Charles, the result is a junior magician, the time is... today? There is no testing agency?"
The blond-haired youth frowned. Isn't this guy a super strong person who suppressed the orc coalition alone?
Why did this test show that he was a junior magician, and then he was destroyed?
Did someone play a prank?
Or the information to be concealed?
Not long after, the blond youth returned to the venue refreshed.
When he saw his sister, he winked and said, "Penny, I just heard something, don't tell anyone!"
…
…
Ten minutes later, there were at least more than fifty nobles that knew Roger Charles was only a junior magician.
Although there was no evidence, quite a few people were willing to believe this!
This is in line with the image of my trashy brother!
"So, he lied about his strength and committed the crime of deceiving the queen, and Her Majesty has to punish him!"
A group of nobles decided to ask Her Majesty for their orders. They will ask for orders when Her Majesty arrives. The liar must pay the price!
Some people think that Roger is too handsome today, some people think that the Charles family is favored, some people are affected by the changes in the empire, some people think that Roger has tarnished the purity of the military, and some people simply don't like lies...
Of course, some wise think that the Queen of Eternal Night is not ignorant of Roger's true strength.
But they still secretly pushed all of the emotions of the begging faction.
Because the nobles are estranged from the Eternal Night Queen, and Roger is a close minister of the Eternal Night Empress, some people are going to kill the chickens to warn the monkeys and let the Eternal Night Empress not go too far, and I am afraid that the scene will be ugly!
Finally, the bell rang at eight o'clock pm, and the Royal Orchestra began to play.
Fireworks rose into the sky and lighted up, forming a complex and beautiful pattern.
The Eternal Night Queen in a black and gold cheongsam teleported to the center of the venue, but she was more dazzling than the fireworks and more intoxicating than the deep night sky!
