Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 653: 209. Timed Bomb_2

Everyone was guessing the relationship between the two and boldly inferred that tonight’s banquet might have something to do with a proposal.

Under the impostor supervisor’s welcome, the guests started to enter.

When Noland Lee had entered the banquet hall earlier, the dance floor, dining room, and the small guest rooms around had been supervised by magic servants and human helpers, and guests were not allowed to use them yet.

After Selena arrived, the dance floor, dining room, and guest rooms were opened up, and the guests could officially start to enjoy the banquet for tonight.

Noland Lee followed the crowd into the grand hall.

He had no intention of socializing, and had already located his spot in the grand hall.

At the moment the dining room opened, Noland Lee, holding his food tray, walked past the buffet, filling his plate with many rare seafood dishes, magic desserts, and magic snacks.

He had calculated it!

As long as he tastes all the dishes here, he could gain up to 120,000 energy points through passive deconstruction!

The food that provided the most energy points was a particular deep-sea shellfish, the name of which he was unaware of.

This seafood was to be eaten raw. After dipping it in the unique seaweed sauce from the Suman Archipelago, it had a unique flavor.

At first, it tasted sour and sweet, then turned sweet and salty, becoming a bit like mildly salty cheese.

When the soft and bouncy texture specific to raw shellfish burst between the teeth, the delicious scent of the juice filled his mouth.

Noland Lee forked up this seafood from the tray, popped it in his mouth, chewed and swallowed it, smoothly obtained a reward of 5,000 energy points.

“Oh, so it’s called salted cream sea shell, a pretty fitting name, it does taste like salted cream.”

Noland Lee sat in the most secluded corner in the dining room, forking up the next piece of seafood sashimi into his mouth.

While comparing the sashimi of this world with that of his previous life, he was quite satisfied harvesting energy point rewards.

On the stage next to the dining room, a renowned, unnamed band in the Suman Archipelago started to perform live music for Noland Lee and other guests. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

In grand banquets like this, different music would usually be played according to the time.

When to enter the dance floor and which kind of dance to perform to which piece of music, ordinary people will not be able to understand these without a year or half a year’s training.

Noland Lee knew nothing about this.

After he was full, he could only rub his belly, sit on the edge of the grand hall, and patiently wait for the meeting.

As for walking around and listening to other people’s conversations…

After considering it, Noland Lee gave up this plan.

Because the intelligence collected this way would be filled with false sentiments.

Think about it, the people who attended this banquet usually held millions in assets.

They wouldn’t spill the truth at a banquet.

Instead of listening to their social language, it’s better to use the “Deconstruction” technique to directly probe their hearts and view their recent memories.

Noland Lee’s gaze swept over the figures on the first and second floors, seeing guests chatting and family guards maintaining order.

It seems some family guards were played by family advisors, who clearly had some rights here.

Just as Noland Lee was thinking of using “Deconstruction” on a family guard, a male servant in a suit came over.

The servant stopped beside Noland Lee, bent over and whispered in his ear:

“Mr. Jarvis, Housekeeper Heramat invites you to the second floor’s guest room.”

Noland Lee nodded, stood up, and was slightly surprised that he was arranged for a meeting so early:

“Please lead the way.”

“Sure, please follow me.” The male servant walked in front, leading Noland Lee with the standard escort gesture.

One in front and one behind, they went up the stairs to the second floor, and stopped in front of a beautifully carved wooden door.

After the male servant went in to report, he opened the door, inviting Noland Lee to enter with a gesture.

Noland Lee stepped into the room and saw the impostor supervisor sitting behind the tea table in the guest room.

On the left and right of him stood two uniquely decorated magic guards.

Though these two magic guards were wearing magic robes and had four limbs like humans, they didn’t have any facial features.

Their bodies were formed from pure energy crystal clear as sunlight shining through natural crystals.

Noland Lee immediately recognized the origins of these two magic guards.

They were the rumored demon spirit wizards!

A type of shaping energy system wizard that had completely transformed their flesh and blood bodies into energy ones!

Noland Lee had a slight reaction in his heart but remained calm on the outside.

“Good evening, Mr. Jarvis.” The Impostor Supervisor got up to greet him, inviting Noland Lee to sit across from him.

Noland Lee obliged, sitting down comfortably.

By first mentioning the reception’s dishes in a polite fashion, the Impostor Supervisor exchanged pleasantries with Noland Lee, and then redirected the conversation towards Noland Lee’s superb completion of bounty tasks and warrants.

“Mr. Jarvis, before our formal meeting, I have contacted Jenela, the agent of the Island Affairs Department. She highly praised your style of handling things and efficiency, saying that you are the best and most intrepid among all the cooperative defense enforcement wizards she had encountered in her many years of service.”

The impostor supervisor had an obligatory grin on his face.

He intertwined his fingers and placed his hands on the tabletop, continuing:

“Miss Jenela recommended you because you have an exceptional insight and execution. She thinks that these two qualities allowed you to identify spies and catch criminals with an amazing accuracy in an extremely short time…”
