Chapter 353 Party
"Mr. White Sage."
Everyone sitting at the round table greeted the white-haired old gentleman with a respectful tone.
It can be seen that Pala still has a high status in the "Midnight Rose".
"Good night, everyone."
Pala smiled at everyone, holding a white cane.
"It's quite lively tonight. It seems that we haven't gathered like this for a long time."
"White Sage."
At this time, a figure sitting at the main seat of the round table spoke. A mature and pleasant female voice came from under the mask.
She had long black curly hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a black satin robe embroidered with golden rose patterns, and a plaster mask of a curly-haired old man on her face.
You can't see her true face at all.
This is the contemporary leader of "Midnight Rose", Ms. "Rose" Flamel Jaber.
"I heard that you have accepted a student. The members are very curious, so they came to see and witness his formal joining."
"After many years, there are finally new members joining. It is really worth gathering together."
"Everything likes everything, everything is better than everything, everything controls everything, everything has its beginning and end, just like Mr. 'Blood Owl' will come here today."
Hearing this, everyone at the round table smiled and nodded, as if they agreed with what the leader said.
"Hello, Ms. 'Mei Weng'."
Jilan put his right hand on his left shoulder and bowed to the person in the main seat.
Mei Weng nodded slightly to him and said:
"Please take a seat."
Immediately, Pala took Gilan to sit in the empty seat at the round table.
At this time, the fat man on Mei Weng's left hand side smiled and said:
"Is this Mr. 'Blood Owl'? I have heard that a talented young man has come to the secret sect. Today, I see that it is true... No wonder the White Sage made an exception and created a reserve organization 'The Thorns', and now he has accepted him as a student."
"What an amazing and even enviable talent... He is only 21 years old, and has already crossed the 'Glow' and reached the 'Abundance', becoming a 4th-level long-lived person."
"Amazing! Very amazing!"
The fat man is estimated to be more than two meters tall and weighs more than 300 kilograms. His round figure supports a high-end dark red dress. The buttons on the chest of the vest are overwhelmed and seem to break at any time.
His ten fingers, as thick as carrots, are wearing sparkling gem rings of various colors, which are quite dazzling.
"This is 'Baron Opal', the owner of the 'Chariot Chess' in the secret sect."
Pala turned his head and introduced to Jilan.
"There is another new owner of the 'Chariot Chess'. You should be familiar with her. She is the black-dressed lady 'Lady Crow' on the second to last position on the right."
"These two are both at the 5th level of 'Glorious'."
Hearing this, Jilan raised his head and nodded to the fat man. He looked at the position pointed by the teacher, where a lady in a black lace dress was sitting.
She wore a small hat with a veil under the brim, revealing only her bright red lips.
Noticing Jilan's gaze, Lady Crow smiled at him to show her friendliness.
'Isn't Lady Crow a 4th level 'Makeup Artist'... Did she get promoted recently? '
Jilan was quite surprised.
He still didn't know what the 5th level of the 'Director' Road of the Furnace Sword Spiral was called, and what special power it had.
A sense of curiosity rose in his heart.
'The next stage of the deduction of 'Glorious' must rely on the secret of the 5th level of the 'Director' Road as the core... Perhaps this time, we can start from Lady Crow. ’
Jilan thought.
Then, Pala introduced the other members to him:
There are two holders of "Bishop Chess".
One is "Clockmaker", a short and thin old man wearing thick round-framed glasses. He also has a brown leather octagonal hat on his head and doesn't seem to like to talk much.
The other is "Mr. Floating", who has two curly mustaches and always smiles.
What is particularly eye-catching is that a palm-sized "mini TV" has been floating on his shoulder, and a real-life city bird's-eye view is displayed on the screen in real time.
These two are also 5th-level "Glorious" level Jiushi, but they are more inclined to the research field.
There are also two holders of "Knight Chess".
They are "Staff Maker" Yuniski Gadri, and a young woman named "Miss Spark".
The former is familiar with Gilan and took the initiative to say hello. The latter has short orange hair, two upturned explosive braids, and colorful heavy makeup on her face, with delicate features.
Miss Spark was holding her chin with one hand and stirring black coffee with a silver spoon with the other hand, yawning repeatedly, looking bored.
According to Pala's introduction, both of them are 4th-level "clay sculptures" and are good at making things. However, the old man who makes sticks prefers sticks and weapons, while Miss Spark is more inclined to the field of gunpowder and explosives.
Finally, there are ordinary members, that is, "soldier chess" holders. There are eleven in total, and only three are present tonight.
"Mr. Cuckoo" (4th-level "makeup artist"). Like Ms. Crow, he is a member of the Recording Association headquarters and a member of the projection round table.
This man looks to be in his thirties or forties, with a gentle appearance. When they first met, he nodded to Jilan in a friendly manner.
"Traveler" (4th-level "whisper"). A man who pursues immortality and is keen on traveling.
He wears a short hat and a scarf, covering his face tightly, revealing only slightly dark skin.
"Yak nail" (4th-level "referee"). A man with a strong physique wearing only a vest.
This person had a cold expression, eating the snacks on the table by himself, and seemed indifferent to Jilan's arrival.
"According to the tradition of the esoteric religion, the joining of new members requires the joint recommendation of two or more formal members."
Mei Weng sat upright with her arms on the stage.
She looked around and said:
"There are three people who recommended 'Blood Owl', namely White Sage, Lady Crow and the old man who makes the staff."
"Let me confirm here again, are you three willing to guarantee Mr. 'Blood Owl'?"
White Sage smiled and nodded slightly.
Lady Crow elegantly picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and said:
"Yes."
"Of course I am willing." The old man who made the staff laughed and gave Jilan a thumbs up. "I have watched 'Blood Owl' grow up step by step, and his talent and character are beyond doubt."
"Yes." Mei Weng nodded. "In this case, I hereby announce that Blood Owl will join the 'Midnight Rose' and become a formal member."
"At the same time, his membership of the 'Thorn Crowd' No. 001 will be revoked... but in order to motivate the remaining reserve members, this number will be permanently retained."
As he spoke, Mei Weng stretched out a hand and looked at Jilan.
"Welcome to join, Blood Owl."
"It's my honor."
Jilan stood up and bowed his head.
Shua——
A dazzling golden light bloomed from Mei Weng's open hands. An exquisite golden chess piece stood quietly in his palm.
The shape of the chess piece is a horse head, with firm eyes and fluffy mane, lifelike.
"This is the 'Knight Chess' given to you."
Mei Weng said.
"It is not only a symbol of your official membership, but also the key to the door to the 'Chessboard Manor'."
"Thank you." Jilan thanked him.
But at this moment, an untimely voice sounded:
"Wait."
Everyone looked over when they heard the voice.
The sturdy man named "Yak Nail" held a donut in his hand and said expressionlessly:
"Isn't this against the rules? According to the tradition of 'Night Rose', formal members should be given 'Soldier Chess' at the beginning... There is no precedent for getting 'Knight Chess' directly."
"Why can Blood Owl have the same status as the old man who makes sticks and Miss Sparks as soon as he joins the club?"
"Could it be that he also has a deep knowledge of alchemy, or has mastered unique skills in a certain field?"
"Ms. Mei Weng, please convince me, otherwise I strongly oppose this injustice."
Hearing this, the faces of the people around the round table were different.
They actually knew the temperament of "Yak Nail". This person's pursuit of justice was almost paranoid. Therefore, this is very consistent with his "referee" essence, and can exert a stronger power.
"Besides 'Yak Nail', who else has objections?"
Mei Weng was not angry, but asked calmly.
The "traveler" sitting next to the burly man raised his hand and said in a low voice:
"I am also a little confused. Is the preferential treatment of Blood Owl because he is a student of White Sage?"
"We all respect Mr. White Sage, but this kind of situation of relying on relationships to get promoted should not appear in "Night Rose".
"Please help Ms. Mei Weng."
After the "traveler" echoed, another person raised an objection. It was Mr. Floating, the holder of "Bishop Chess".
He smiled and said:
"I am just curious, why Mr. Blood Owl can be different from most members and get the favor of Ms. Mei Weng?"
After the man finished speaking, the other members did not speak again. But the expressions on everyone's faces were full of interest, as if they wanted to explore what was special about Blood Owl.
Mei Weng nodded to show that she understood.
Immediately, she said calmly:
"Blood Owl is indeed good at something, otherwise I would not make an exception to give him the "Knight Chess".
She looked around, and everyone looked at her.
"His combat level is very high."
"Huh?" All the members around the round table were surprised, as if they didn't expect this reason.
"High combat level..."
Yak Ding put down the doughnut in his hand, frowning.
"Just because of this?"
"Yes." Mei Weng said lightly. "Just because of this."
Mr. Fuyou still had a smile on his face, but he shook his head and said:
"Although everyone here has their own strengths, their combat level is not low..."
"Ms. Mei Weng, you said that the combat level of Blood Owl is very high, how high?"
The traveler asked in a deep voice.
"Surpassing most of the 4th level, and even comparable to the general 5th level Jiushi in some aspects."
Mei Weng said calmly.
"Blood Owl's recent record is to fight one against two, and deal with Zakar Reis, the elder of the 'Ascetic Sect', and the fifth pigeon in one of the sonnets of the 'White Dove Tower' at the same time."
"16 seconds, two people died, and Blood Owl was unharmed."
"?!" Everyone was stunned.
16 seconds...
Killed two Jiushi in a row, and it was a combination of "patient" and "whisper"? !
Is the strength of Blood Owl really just promoted to level 4? !
