Chapter 866 Invitation


    “Huh……”


    After taking a shower, Mary changed her clothes and walked out of the room and came to the living room. She flipped through the notebook in her hand and thought carefully about the subject matter of the next new book - this was also Mary''s habit. Although her adventure with Duanmu Huai was indeed thrilling, from the perspective of literary and artistic works, it still needed some artistic processing. Many times, Mary made up a story and put it into the material she collected.


    After all - this story is purely fiction, and if there is any similarity, it is purely coincidental.


    For example, stories about ghouls, she will also hide the name of her city, and organizations like the Countermeasures Bureau will also change their names. After all, many things are confidential, and even if everyone knows them, you cannot write them out directly. No matter what, if you write it out, you still need to authorize it, but often this is very difficult...


    "Hello, Mary."


    An''s voice sounded, and Mari raised her head, and saw that she, Gureya, Lorena and others, walked into the living room with a teacup and waved her hands at her.


    "Thank you for your hard work, are you sorting out the materials again?"


    “Yeah, that’s right…”


    "Where did Mr. Knight go to this time? What kind of monster did you encounter?"


    Hearing Mary''s answer, he came over excitedly when he settled down, and the other girls looked at Mary curiously. No wonder they had this reaction, because only Duanmu Huai can go to Mary''s world, and others are strictly prohibited from entering. And more importantly, Mary is a writer, and she will write the whole story into a book and publish it... This ability is only one in the Inquisition.


    After changing An''s words, she told her to tell her that it was basically "Where did Mr. Knight and I go to, and encountered a super disgusting monster, and then I killed them all with a magic ''bang''."


    Basically, it means nothing is said.


    So for the girls in the Inquisition, it is still very interesting to listen to Mary telling stories.


    Mary did not disappoint them, and soon told her experience this time. After listening to Mary''s story, everyone couldn''t help but feel emotion.


    "Vampires, werewolfs, and ghouls who eat humans... Hey, if there are these races in Manalia, I would find it very difficult."


    An hugged his arms and sighed helplessly, while Lorena thought for a moment and looked at Mary.


    "Miss Mary, in your opinion, do those ghouls... really deserve to die?"


    "Just think of me? To be honest, I can understand their desire to survive, but unfortunately, these ghouls eat people and rely solely on eating people to survive - so although they do show some moving ideas, I think they...the only ending is this."


    “…………”


    Hearing Mary''s answer, the girls were silent. To be honest, they have read a lot of stories about Mary''s world, but they are not as complicated as the cameras and the universe, nor as grand and gorgeous as the pioneers or the harvesters. However, the human entanglement hidden inside makes people hesitate. For example, if they were there, they might not have started... Although they know the truth about Mary, but...


    Fortunately, they don’t have to face this choice.


    I have to say that the girls were relieved. Although they had visited many worlds with Duanmu Huai, there was probably only the world where Mary was in such a difficult world. Fortunately, Duanmuhuai didn''t let them follow, otherwise they wouldn''t know what they would do.


    For a moment, the atmosphere became solemn.


    "Ah, forget it, I won''t talk about this."


    An clapped his hands hard, dispelling the heavy atmosphere.


    "Tell me something interesting. Have you ever dated Mr. Knight in that world?"


    "Dating?"


    "That''s right, go out together and have dinner together, maybe there''s something like that."


    “Dinner together…”


    Hearing An''s inquiry, Mary turned her head silently and looked out the window - where, under the illumination of the stars, the star rings outside were clearly visible.


    “Indeed, Mr. Duanmu invited me to a hotel for dinner. I heard that the chefs in that restaurant were very good.”


    "Oh oh oh, then what then?"


    "Then... he ate ten steaks, drank two bottles of red wine and several meals..."


    “………………”


    Hearing Mary''s faint answer, the other girls who were originally listening to gossip were speechless.


    Generally speaking, having dinner together is to enhance feelings with the woman.


    Do you really think this is a self-service dinner?


    "Forget it, it was the same when Manalia''s nobles invited him to the banquet. There were obviously ladies around who were eager to come forward to talk to him, but Mr. Knight only cared about the food in front of him..."


    An reached out and pressed his forehead and sighed helplessly.


    "Mr. Knight has no romantic cells in his mind, but there are many violent cells."


    Hearing An''s complaint, Mary didn''t speak, but turned her eyes back on her laptop.


    She didn''t think Duanmuhuai had no romantic cells at all. After all, she still remembered that after she got drunk that night, Duanmuhuai stayed with her in her room all night, just because she grabbed his clothes and refused to let him go... Well, but this is Mary''s personal little secret, so she doesn''t have to take it out and share it with others.


    After all, it is somewhat embarrassing.


    In the next few days, Duanmu Huai regained some leisure. Although he was the judge and the ruler of Arkham City, basically these things will be done by others. Duanmu Huai just needs to read the report and stamp it. If it is not a particularly troublesome thing, he doesn''t need to deal with it.


    As for the black bead, it was lying very peacefully in Duanmuhuai''s inventory, and it looked like something useless - maybe it was really useless?


    Duanmu Huai still remembers that in the game, similar things actually happened more than once, such as a certain task was to expel the demon, and the player needed to find the Holy Book, then arrange the magic circle according to the Holy Book, and then expel the demon - this is a regular process.


    But some ruthless people were too lazy to set up magic circles and directly resisted and killed the demons.


    Then the holy book is useless, but since the holy book is regarded as a necessary plot prop to expel the demons in this mission, it will disappear after creating the magic circle according to the steps. However, the player did not create the magic circle, so the holy book was not used up, so it cannot be discarded and destroyed, and it can only be kept to occupy space. Players have complained about this several times, but this bug has not been fixed.


    On the plus side, maybe this bead is actually a mission prop for eliminating ghouls, but the ghouls were destroyed, so they were useless? Well, although Duanmu Huai really wants to think so, it’s a pity that the possibility is not high - after all, it’s OK to eliminate the ghouls and not activate the task at all.


    How could there be mission props?


    "Okay, that''s about it."


    Duanmu Huai put the documents in his hand aside, then stretched his body, and now Aojisi used his hands and feet together and lay on his back again.


    "Aojis, do you have to hold me?"


    "Um."


    "Oh... forget it, just do whatever you want."


    Hearing Ojisi''s answer, Duanmu Huai could only sigh helplessly. Since he came back that day, Ojisi has been tangled around him like an ivy. Anyway, Duanmu Huai is tall, and Ojisi on him is like a kitten, so there is no big obstacle.


    “Didi…!”


    At this moment, the communication sound suddenly sounded, and then Mia''s voice, as innocent and optimistic as ever, seemed to have no worries, rang in Duanmu Huai''s ears.


    "It''s morning~~Master, I''ll report to you if you have something to do~~~"


    "What''s up?"


    "It''s Mr. Dardanell''s communication, are you going to pick it up?"


    "Dardanell? What trouble did he make?"


    Hearing the name of this Shanglangren, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes speechlessly. In his impression, the other party usually asked him to deal with the trouble - well, Duanmu Huai asked him not to always call him when he was fine, and he couldn''t blame him.


    “Check it in.”


    “Yes~~~”


    Soon, the picture in front of him flashed, and then the businessman with a shrewd face appeared on the screen in front of Duanmu Huai. Looking at Ojisi lying on Duanmu Huai''s shoulder, Dardanell was stunned for a moment, but soon came to his senses and smiled at Duanmu Huai.


    “It’s great to see that you are still so healthy, Lord Judge.”


    "If you have something to say, what trouble did you encounter this time?"


    "This...strictly speaking, it cannot be considered a trouble..."


    "Um?"


    "I wonder if you are interested in... attending the banquet, Judge?"


    “Banquet?”


    “That’s right…”


    While speaking, Dardanell also explained Duanmu Huai. The incident still occurred in the previous alliance between the Tower Parliament and the War Planet and the Demon Planet. At that time, they also sent a message to Duanmu Huai, but Duanmu Huai said that the Inquisition would not interfere in political affairs and fight back directly.


    Now, the four parties, including Dardanell, have successfully negotiated and reached an agreement - simply put, they will form an alliance with several other planets headed by Dardanell, and Dardanell''s chamber of commerce will become the only designated official chamber of commerce alliance among this alliance force.


    If it were other places, this kind of thing would actually be difficult to deal with, but the problem is that people on those planets were either killed by aliens, by demons, or by orcs, and they could not even find a formal commercial organization, so Dardanell naturally accepted the franchise.


    Naturally, they have to hold a banquet to celebrate and then sign a contract at the banquet.


    Since the Court of Justice is connected to these planets, and Dardanell also knows that without the Court of Justice, he would not be able to reach this level today, so he specially invited the Court of Justice to attend the banquet.


    besides………


    "The Galaxy Business Alliance will also send people to participate..."


    "You actually got together with people from the Galaxy Business Alliance?"


    Hearing this name, Duanmu Huai frowned. The Galaxy Business Alliance is a large cross-galaxy commercial organization, and it is also a relatively famous commercial alliance organization in the world.


    The reason why Duanmuhuai’s court did not deal with them was also very simple.


    The Galaxy Business Alliance is full of alien shapes.


    In other words, they are all aliens.


    They are not ancient races like the Spirit race, the Ancient Saint, the Deadly Fear or the Star God, nor are they once brilliant civilizations like humans and orcs. Let me put it this way, all the alien aliens in this alliance are young alien races, that is, races that have only grown up in the thousands of years after the destruction of the human empire.


    If humans are used as an example, the ancient saint is considered to be the generation of the grandfather, the human empire is considered to be the older generation, and the alien races in this galaxy business alliance are basically those non-mainstream gangsters who are in the rebellion at the age of fifteen or sixteen who are dyeing colorful cockscombs and don’t know what they are.


    Well, in fact, it''s almost the same.


    Duanmu Huai had never wanted to make up their ideas before, because this alien alliance was too far from the current territory of the Inquisition, and it was not worth crossing the Milky Way for it. Moreover, the world of Feilun is still very dangerous now, and it is not good to pick up sesame seeds and throw watermelons.


    But now, they actually came to their door by themselves?


    "You should know the rules of the court."


    "Of course I know."


    "That''s good."


    Although Dardanell said nothing, Duanmu Huai also understood that he actually said everything.


    "Okay, I get it."


    Duanmu Huai thought for a moment and nodded.


    “I will go to the banquet.”
