After checking in, Allen checked into a room facing the street. He put down his luggage and walked to the small balcony, where he could see the street outside. The sun was just right, and he stretched when there was a knock on the door. Allen opened the door. There was a tall, thin man standing outside, with two guards behind him. The man was looking at a pocket watch. When he saw Allen open the door, he quickly put away his pocket watch and bowed solemnly. "Dear Viscount Allen, it's an honor to meet you. I'm Graham, the clerk, and I greet you on behalf of Mr. Mayor Jon. "
Allen opened the door and said, "Come in. You're quite well-informed. I wanted to visit Mr. Mayor later. "
"Who doesn't know about Viscount Allen's trip north? We heard that you were in Satin City, so we were thinking that you should be in Mosaior." Graham, the clerk, walked into the room and took out a burgundy invitation from his pocket. He placed it on the table and said respectfully, "Mr. Mayor invites you to attend tonight's reception. I hope Viscount Allen will be honored."
"Of course, please tell Mr. Mayor that I'll be there on time."
"Then I won't disturb you any longer. I hope you'll have an unforgettable time in Mosaior." Graham took off his hat and bowed again. "Farewell, my lord."
After Graham left, Allen knocked on Lucy's door with the invitation, but it was Guna who opened the door. The girl lowered her head and invited Allen in, then tactfully left the room. Lucy was admiring the street view of Mosaior on the balcony. Hearing Allen's footsteps, she didn't turn around and said, "I want to keep Guna by my side. Do you have any objections?"
"What objections do I have? If there are objections, it will only be from Fares. He will definitely complain that Guna staying by your side won't give him much of a chance to get close to that girl. " Allen walked over and waved the invitation in his hand. "I wonder if I have the honor of inviting Her Highness Lucy to accompany me to Mayor Jon's reception tonight?"
Lucy turned around and narrowed her eyes. "Seeing that you're so sincere, I'll allow it."
At night, a black carriage stopped in front of the hotel, followed by a group of guards. Although Allen didn't need the protection of these guards, they still gave him enough face. Allen changed into a new set of clothes and boarded the carriage with Lucy, who was dressed splendidly. The twin sisters acted as Allen's bodyguards and rode their horses on both sides of the carriage.
After Allen and the others left, Fares and Rick invited Regis and the others to the bar for a drink. He bumped into Guna in the hallway. Rick patted Fares on the shoulder and hurried to invite the others. Fares would not frown when it came to killing enemies, but he was shy when it came to matters between men and women. He lowered his head and asked, "Well, Miss Guna. We're going to a bar to relax tonight … Do you want to come? "
Guna smiled and politely declined. "I'm sorry, Mr. Fares. Miss Lucy will accompany Lord Allen to the banquet tonight. I want to make a drink for her in advance. You know, drinking too much is not good for the body. "
"I see. Then I understand. It's okay. You do what you need to do. "Fares laughed twice.
"I'm sorry again," Guna whispered, and then left.
Rick came back at this time and grabbed Fares's shoulder. "How is it?"
"She wants to make a drink for Miss Lucy. She doesn't have time to go with us," Fares told the truth.
Rick rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Blockhead."
Fares shrugged and did not refute.
The Sand of Time Bar was also a little famous in the Orlando market. There was a limited supply of 100 cocktails called "Precipitate Time" every night. This wine, like its name, tasted mellow and left an endless aftertaste. It always stimulated your taste buds and made you recall some of the most impressive flavors. Like the honey tea made by your mother, or the ale brewed by your father. Those who drank it would always have a feeling of settling down in the past.
Because of the existence of this cocktail, this medium-sized bar was almost full every night. When Fares arrived with Regis, Adele, and a few other warriors who usually got along, they could only squeeze into a corner table.
Rick went to the bar and came back with a helpless expression on his face. They weren't too late, but tonight's limited supply of deep time had already been sold out. Rick could only order a glass of black beer for everyone. Black beer was not completely black. It was also a drink created by the Sand of Time. Blueberries were added to the original beer, turning the color of the beer dark purple. There was also a hint of blueberry fruity aroma after drinking it. It was also one of the more popular drinks in the bar.
The black beer was filled in a large glass, which suited the appetite of the warriors very well, and they drank it in large gulps on the spot. Seeing that they were drinking, Regis was about to reach for his glass, but he slapped Adele's palm off. Regis glared at him angrily, and Adele said casually, "The kid won't drink like others. Rick, give him a glass of juice."
The men burst into laughter.
Regis blushed, "I'm not a child anymore!"
Then, he picked up the beer and poured it into his mouth in a fit of pique. As a result, he choked on it too quickly, causing a few warriors to roar with laughter. Adele shook her head and said with a smile, "See, I told you to have a drink." She picked up her glass and drank it slowly. He didn't drink it fast, but a moment later, a large glass of beer was quickly emptied. Adele put down her glass and said indifferently, "Again."
The warriors applauded vigorously, and Regis was immediately outdone. The youth's face turned even redder, and he wished he could find a crack in the crowd to crawl into. As the bartender delivered the beer, a woman screamed from the other side of the bar. Fares turned around and saw a woman lying on the ground for some reason. Then a man came out of a table, picked her up and slapped her across the face.
Fares narrowed his eyes and was about to stand up when Rick reached out and gently pressed down on his shoulder. He whispered, "Mind your own business. This is not Satin City."
Rick was right. Mosaior was much bigger than Satin City. The bigger the city, the deeper the water. Moreover, Fares and the others were not locals, so it was better to avoid trouble here. Most people who walked outside understood these principles. Fares nodded, not intending to pay any attention to it. However, the table did not seem to stop. The man pushed the woman again and cursed, "Bitch." At this moment, a bartender went over to persuade the man and pushed him away. The woman took the opportunity to pick up an empty bottle from a nearby drinker and knock it on the man's head.
Fragments splashed everywhere, and the surrounding guests dodged. The man cursed, reached out to grab the woman, and lifted her up.
Naturally, the guests shook their heads when they saw this. However, seeing the man's fierce expression, no one dared to step forward to dissuade him. Fares snorted, obviously disapproving of the other party's actions. The man suddenly threw the woman out, landing right at Fares' table. The woman fell on the table and overturned the wine glass, causing the fragrance of the wine to fill the air. At this point, Fares could not bear to watch any longer. When Rick helped the woman up, Fares walked straight towards the man.
Rick was afraid that he would make a big deal out of this and cause trouble for Allen. He hurriedly asked Regis to support the woman, and he chased after her.
Fares stood in front of the man and said angrily, "You're too much. You're hitting a woman!"
The man narrowed his eyes. "What, you want to stand up for that bitch? Do you know who I am? Your accent doesn't sound like you're from Mosaior. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business. "
He reached out and patted Fares on the cheek.
Fares raised his hand and pushed him away. The man was furious, and everyone at his table stood up. At this moment, Rick arrived and stood between Fares and those people. He winked at Fares, then released some of his aura and said to the people elsewhere, "We're indeed not locals, and we don't want to cause trouble. That doesn't mean we're afraid of trouble, so it's best to call it a night. Otherwise, you might not be able to take advantage of us. "
Those people probably felt that Rick and Selina were not to be trifled with. They exchanged glances, and the man in the lead snorted. "Consider yourself lucky."
Rick turned around and shrugged. Originally, he thought that this matter was over, but unexpectedly, he saw Fares's expression change, and then he sensed that someone was pouncing on him. Rick couldn't help but be slightly angry, so he wanted to teach these ignorant fellows a lesson. When the ambusher collided with him, Rick immediately erupted with Origin Energy and was about to shake the other party away. Unexpectedly, a cold aura suddenly erupted from his waist and ribs, destroying all of his Origin Energy. Following that, something cold pierced into his body.
Rick's expression finally changed.
This change happened in the blink of an eye. Fares originally did not intend to make a move. With Rick's strength, it was more than enough to teach these local snakes a lesson. However, he saw Rick's expression suddenly change, and saw that the person who ambushed Rick's aura had increased explosively, and his strength was actually not inferior to Rick's. Suddenly, a shadow flashed through his heart. At this moment, Rick was thrown over by the other party. Fares's eyes were blazing as he watched, and blood sprayed out from Rick's waist and ribs. Just as he reached out to catch Rick, he suddenly saw Rick's chest swell up. Following that, a hand in an iron glove grabbed out from Rick's chest and grabbed towards Fares's chest.
Rick roared and pushed Fares away with all his might. Then, he raised his hand and slid out a dagger from his sleeve, stabbing it backwards. The person behind him retreated and pulled his hand out of Rick's body. Rick's entire body trembled as he felt a cold wind continuously pour into his body. The man took the opportunity to use the short blade in his hand to continuously enter and exit Rick's lower abdomen and chest. Then, he grabbed Rick's neck with his iron-gloved hand and threw him out.
When Rick fell to the ground, his head hung down unnaturally. It was obvious that his neck had been broken. Fares let out an earth-shattering scream. His Qi surged violently, and his Origin Energy was fully activated. He didn't have his usual spear in his hand, so he threw a punch at the murderer.
At the same time, the woman in Regis's arms suddenly burst out with an imposing aura. Regis's mind was on Fares and the others, especially Rick's tragic death, causing him to be unable to react. At this moment, the woman suddenly attacked and slashed her palm at Regis's neck. The youth's vision immediately darkened and he fainted.
The woman ignored Regis and rushed towards Adele with a sinister smile on her face!
