This was actually due to her sensitivity. In fact, there was already a circle of people at the entrance of the hotel. There were mages in all kinds of attire and reporters with newspapers in their hands. There were twenty to thirty people in total, almost completely surrounding the entrance of the hotel.
If it wasn't for Irwin and the others blocking them with a human wall, they would have already rushed in.
Akasha and Naifei did not know about the series of events that happened after Roddy won the championship today. They felt that there were too many people at the front door, so they wanted to turn around and enter the small door at the back. Unexpectedly, as soon as they turned around, they saw two Tuk women running over to strike up a conversation …
Miranda and Jill greeted them warmly. After a round of self-introductions, they requested to meet Roddy with Akasha.
Akasha was not interested in answering them at all. She said "no comment" with a cold face and left directly. The two men were not discouraged. They shamelessly followed her for a while, but in the end, they did not get a second word from Akasha's mouth. They could only watch her enter the hotel, and they were stopped outside.
"Bitch, what's there to be proud about!"
"Isn't it just the trash that Roddy abandoned? So what if you have big breasts …"
Miranda and Jill scolded as they walked back. Seeing Doris standing there without any action, they could not help but say, "Are you still not going to act? If this goes on, the prey in your mouth will escape. "
"I don't need you to remind me."
Doris's expression was very bad. She was actually more anxious than anyone else. After all, she had even booked a hotel before she left in the morning. She was waiting for Roddy to fail so that she could "execute him on the spot". But now, the people looking for Roddy had already surrounded the hotel twice. How could she find a chance to deal with him?
The country bumpkin that everyone despised had suddenly become popular. Such a reversal made Doris very passive. But before she could come up with any ideas, the crowd in the distance suddenly burst into exclamations.
The three of them looked over and sucked in a breath of cold air at the same time!
There were a total of six carriages with the emblem of the Lacheman Parliament coming from afar.
This meant that the most powerful people in the kingdom were basically all here.
*****
"I'm not used to eating other things in Lacheman, but this fried fish is really amazing."
In the restaurant on the second floor of the hotel, Roddy was chatting happily with Houdini. Sitting beside him, Merinsala sipped on her seabuckthorn juice and said lazily, "Sea fish are different from those in the river. You haven't tried deep-sea fish before. The taste, tsk tsk …"
"Is it really okay for us to talk about food here?"
Houdini glanced out of the window. The Parliament's carriages lined up in a row were parked below. It was impossible to miss them. Especially the mages wearing the formal robes of the Parliament standing in front of the entrance of the hotel, their aura was truly astonishing.
"Then what are we talking about? Let's talk about how Lassman treated the envoys of other countries. "
Roddy laughed and stuffed a piece of fish cake into his mouth. He said while chewing, "By the way, you didn't go to watch the competition today?"
"I'm about to become a rat that everyone wants to beat up. What's the point of joining in the fun? I've just collected the payment from the auction today. It's over 100,000 gold coins. I've really made a killing! "
"Isn't that obvious? They've been causing trouble for me since the moment I got off the ship. If I don't make them pay, wouldn't I have come for nothing? "
In Rody's dictionary, there was no such thing as' suffering a loss is a blessing '. He clearly remembered how Lassman had made things difficult for him. Now that the Parliament had suffered a loss of 140,000 gold coins, it was just a small amount of interest for him.
"Why? Are you afraid that those old fellows will barge in and reason with me?"
Houdini shook his head. Although he looked relaxed, he couldn't help but glance to the side. After all, those standing outside weren't small fries. They were the top old fellows in this country.
"By the way, what level are those 'enforcers'?"
Roddy turned to ask Merinsala. The latter didn't even bother to look at him and replied, "More than half of them don't have any combat experience. The other half aren't much better either. They're probably used to being arrogant and have never experienced any setbacks. In terms of combat level, they might be able to catch up to Sylvia, but they're far from being able to fight on the battlefield. "
Those who could use one-third of their strength on the battlefield were considered good. Newbies usually couldn't even use one-tenth of their strength. Roddy knew this very well. He turned to Houdini and asked, "By the way, the enforcers are in charge of the security of Duriel. How many soldiers are there?"
"Soldiers? After Duriel was built, there weren't many soldiers. Since this city has a very complete defense circle and floating space tower, there are only about a thousand regular infantrymen. The rest are all mages. " Houdini drew the outline of the city in the air with his wand and pointed at it. "There are four teams of enforcers who are in charge of the city's defense. There are about a hundred of them."
This was a shocking number. In the Kingdom of Karen, no city had ever been equipped with mages who were in charge of defense. However, in Lassman, where magic was common, a battle mage was equivalent to almost a hundred soldiers in the right position. Therefore, such a force was not as weak as it seemed.
"Why are you suddenly asking about this?"
"I've been wondering what the Tuk Tribe is planning. Is it a terrorist attack or something else?"
"Terrorist attack? What do you mean? "
Akasha, who had already changed her clothes and came over to eat, asked curiously. Rody shrugged his shoulders and replied, "It is to create chaos and fear. However, this kind of thing cannot be guessed. I will think of another way to confirm it later."
"I passed the semi-finals!"
Naifei was about to show off her achievement. Roddy quickly stood up and toasted the little girl. But at that moment, the hotel manager walked in with a troubled look. He hesitated and said, "Lord Roddy, outside … Speaker Jeremy and the councilors of the academies want to talk to you."
"Who?"
Roddy glanced at him. "I've never heard of this name."
"Ahem …"
Houdini choked and coughed so hard that tears almost came out of his eyes. On the other hand, Merinsala and the others continued to chat calmly. They talked about the model that Sylvia had been working on.
The hotel manager was confused by Roddy's reaction. He explained for a long time what the Lassman Parliament meant to this country, but Roddy just waved his hand and said, "You mean he has a high status? I have a high status in the Kingdom of Karen too. Can't I see him even if I'm not interested? "
