After the Mechanic oath-taking ceremony.
Hayashi River only wanted to return to the Grayish-White Furnace as soon as possible to see what the special mechanical arm that Master Tie Yin had promised looked like.
However, he could not leave anytime soon. According to tradition, after the oath-taking ceremony, the consul of the Split Scale County would host a banquet for all the new Mechanics.
To many Mechanics, this banquet was very important. Not only could they expand their network, but it was also a highlight of their lives.
As for Master Tie Yin, as the manager of the Grayish-White Furnace, he naturally could not leave.
He would have to wait until the next day to return to the Grayish-White Furnace.
The venue of the banquet was the consul of the Split Scale County, and the rules were the same as the banquet for the king.
"What's the point of attending this kind of banquet? It's not interesting at all …"
In a corner of the garden, Hayashi River held a glass of wine and nodded at the surrounding guests as he muttered softly.
In his opinion, since he had already become a Mechanic, the first thing he should do was devote himself to mechanical research. How could such a hardcore profession be wasted on a banquet?
Snap snap snap …
Not far away, a few new Mechanics were taking selfies to remember this memorable night …
In another direction, a beautiful reporter surrounded a genius Mechanic and was conducting an interview. From time to time, she would throw flirtatious glances at him, causing the innocent genius Mechanic to fall head over heels …
In a corner opposite the garden, two tall White Werewolf beauties were taking pictures with a new Mechanic. After taking the pictures, they excitedly posted them on their WeChat Moments …
"How boring …"
Hayashi River curled his lips and turned to the side so that no one would notice him.
He actually wanted to take a selfie, but it seemed like he could not post it on his WeChat Moments or in the group chat. There was no point in taking a selfie if he only saw it himself.
At this time, a figure waved at him from a small door in the garden. Hayashi River's eyes lit up, and he walked over.
"Sister Yi Xing, are you planning to leave? Bring me along, "Hayashi River said softly.
Yi Xing stood at the small door. She was wearing a silver gown. Her tall figure and shoulders looked like they were carved by a knife. Her blue eyes were bright, and she had a dazzling beauty.
"This is the banquet after the oath-taking ceremony, and you're Master Tie Yin's student. Is it possible for you to leave midway?"
Yi Xing glared at him and then sighed, "Actually, I also feel quite bored. Some people just can't get rid of them no matter how hard I try. You, on the other hand, slipped away so quickly just now … "
Hayashi River chuckled. How could he not slip away quickly? Yi Xing wanted to use him as her boyfriend to block those suitors.
Of course, he had to run away at the first possible moment when something so eye-catching was happening. He was not going to take the blame for being hated out of jealousy for no reason.
Yi Xing glared at him, but she also smiled. She also knew that if she told others that Hayashi River was her boyfriend, no one would believe it. After all, Hayashi River was too young. He had just become a Mechanic, and his age and weight were not enough.
Just as the two of them were whispering, a gentle voice sounded, "Aiya … Yi Xing, you really know how to find a place …"
Hayashi River turned around and saw a beautiful lady in a purple gown walking into the banquet hall.
The purple gown was on her voluptuous figure, and she looked graceful as she walked. Under the shadows of the lights, the lady's face gradually became clearer. Her face was extremely beautiful, and her lips were as red as fire. She had a faint glow in her eyeshadow, and her smooth skin was flushed red. She was extremely alluring.
The most alluring part was that when this lady walked, her waist swayed, exuding an enchanting and languid charm.
Ever since he came to South Rudra Academy, Lin Chuan had seen many beautiful women. In terms of looks alone, this woman was not the prettiest, but when she was paired with this sort of grace, it was hard for others to look away.
With the appearance of the beautiful lady in the purple gown, many pairs of eyes looked over, and this place immediately became the center of attention.
"Cynthia, what are you doing here?"
Yi Xing's expression turned cold, and she said, "Do you think I'm not annoying enough? You came here to cause trouble, and it took me a lot of effort to avoid those annoying people.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, so I wanted to catch up with you. You've been in the Split Scale Prefecture for so many days, but you didn't come to see me."
Cynthia rebuked him, and at the same time, she glanced at Hayashi River. The latter's heart skipped a beat, and many scenes that were not suitable for children immediately appeared in his mind.
"Oh my … this lady's level is really high …"
Hayashi River secretly clicked his tongue. He had only heard of the Blood Spirit Clan and the Demon Cat Clan having such a secret technique to seduce a man with just a glance.
However, to be able to achieve this with just her own charm, this was really a source of trouble.
"This is …" Cynthia looked over and said with a charming smile.
"I'm Master Tie Yin's student." Hayashi River straightened his clothes and said with his head held high.
"Oh …"
Cynthia's eyes lit up, and she looked at Hayashi River deeply. She stretched out her slender hand, wanting to shake his hand. "Then in the future, we should get closer …"
"Alright. Cynthia, can't you change this bad habit of yours … "
Yi Xing raised his hand and slapped the air. Cynthia was so frightened that she hurriedly withdrew her hand.
"I just want to get to know a new friend … Excuse me for a moment …"
As she said this, Cynthia covered her mouth and laughed. She threw Hayashi River a coquettish glance, then turned and left.
"Stop looking."
As she spoke, she hit Hayashi River's shoulder, and the latter grimaced in pain.
"Sister Yi Xing, I'm not looking."
Hayashi River rubbed his shoulder and looked around. He realized that all the males in the garden were like him, chasing after Cynthia's beautiful figure with intoxicated gazes.
Yi Xing snorted coldly and shook her head inwardly. After all, he was a young man who wasn't even 20 years old. It was indeed difficult for him to control himself in front of such a stunner.
Hayashi River hesitated for a moment, then asked, "This Cynthia is …"
Yi Xing glanced at him with her icy blue eyes and said, "Cynthia is the consul's wife. If it's not necessary, try not to interact with her. You can't win against her …"
After listening to Yi Xing's explanation, Hayashi River understood. Although Cynthia was the consul's wife in name, she was actually a social butterfly in the Split Scale Commandery.
In the Split Scale Commandery, many important people had affairs with Cynthia, which made the consul's position more and more stable.
"So that's how it is …" Hayashi River lowered his head, looking a little dejected.
"Of course, since you're Great Master Tie Yin's student, climbing into her bed won't be a problem. However, young people shouldn't indulge in it … How about it? If you're interested, I can act as a go-between."
Yi Xing said with a chuckle.
Hayashi River sighed and shook his head resolutely, indicating that there was no need for that.
Yi Xing smiled inwardly. She couldn't tell that this young man was so innocent when it came to relationships.
"Sister Yi Xing, I want to be alone for a while."
As Hayashi River said this, he walked towards the shadow of the garden. From his back, one could see the loneliness of a love that had been extinguished before it could even sprout.
Yi Xing shook her head and walked towards the banquet hall. As the heir of the Blue Star Conglomerate, she couldn't disappear for too long on such an occasion.
In the shadow of the garden, Hayashi River held a glass of wine and sipped it as he observed the situation in the banquet hall.
In the center of the banquet hall, around Great Master Tie Yin were gathered all the important people of the Split Scale Commandery. The commander of the White Dwarf Legion was dressed in military attire. He was drinking and laughing loudly with the others.
Hayashi River estimated that this commander of the White Dwarf Legion was a ninth-level Heart Warrior.
With this kind of strength, even without relying on the White Dwarf Legion, he could do whatever he wanted in the Split Scale Commandery.
On the other side of the hall, with the commander of the Iron Blade Garrison in the center, Luo Teng, many important people were gathered.
The image of an eyeball appeared on his forehead. In Hayashi River's vision, he "saw" the murderous aura on Luo Teng's body. It was as sharp as the edge of a blade and completely materialized. It had a destructive power similar to mental energy.
This was the first time Hayashi River had seen someone with such a murderous aura. Moreover, Luo Teng's strength was also a ninth-level Heart Warrior.
In terms of danger, Luo Teng was even scarier than the commander of the White Dwarf Legion. The image of an eyeball appeared from time to time, warning Hayashi River to stay away from this human.
At the banquet, the person who attracted the most attention was Cynthia. From time to time, men would approach her and talk to her. They all seemed to be enchanted by her beauty.
After looking around, Hayashi River closed his eyes and withdrew his mental energy. He "saw" a faint green aura revolving around his brain.
This faint green aura was released by Cynthia when she glanced at him just now. It was similar to a very weak mental energy.
The men around him had more or less the same faint green aura.
In the hall, the men who behaved intimately with Cynthia had a very thick faint green aura around them. It surrounded their entire brains and looked very horrifying.
The banquet lasted until late at night before it ended. Hayashi River followed behind Master Tie Yin and got into Yi Xing's luxurious car.
In the car, Hayashi River circulated his mental energy. The faint green aura that enveloped his brain quickly disappeared.
In his mind, the image of Cynthia had completely disappeared. Hayashi River's eyes regained their clarity. He thought to himself, "The waters of the Split Scale Commandery are very deep. It's better to leave quickly …"
