Chapter 358 What is destiny's favorite?

At the 30th birthday party of Grand Duke Nanweier's son, all the famous nobles nearby came with carefully selected valuable gifts.

In the study on the third floor, Grand Duke Nanweier's bloated body leaned slightly on a coffee-colored sofa that was obviously about to be overwhelmed.

He opened his eyes that were about to droop, glanced at the two people standing opposite him, and said in a deep voice: "I don't want any accidents this time!"

"Grand Duke, please rest assured, this time we specially invited a powerful extraordinary person, he will definitely be able to complete the Grand Duke's task."

The two people opposite explained one sentence after another, and cold sweat began to appear on their foreheads.

"Hehe, if you disappoint me again, you two will jump into the sea to feed the sharks. Of course, you can also wait for someone to chop you into pieces and evenly spread them on the sea."

Grand Duke Nanweier snorted coldly, thinking that his little tricks in secret were easily resolved by Earl Hasta Campbell every time, and he even wanted to eat people alive.

The eight ports were eight gold mountains, which originally belonged to him, but now they have become someone else's private property.

The people he secretly sent out either fell ill and were hospitalized for unknown reasons, or suddenly went crazy and jumped into the sea to commit suicide.

Some of the secret lines that successfully established a foothold always sent back some insignificant news, which was of no use at all.

And the pair of sisters he sent out at the beginning have been staying in the castle, and it is extremely difficult to even pass on a message, and the young earl has been staying in Punin Port during this period.

The role played by the two of them from the time they were sent out to now is basically zero.

Recently, the kingdom has declared war on the Feysac Empire, which means that the South Continent will not be a threat for the time being, otherwise the king will not launch a large-scale war. He can take this opportunity today to deal with the earl from Backlund.

After the two people in the room left, Grand Duke Nanweier glanced at the bookshelf in the corner, "You follow the people they find, take the seal sent by my father from Backlund, and ensure that the action tonight is foolproof."

When he mentioned the word father, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised a hint of sarcasm.

After giving these instructions, Grand Duke Nanweier leaned on the sofa and squinted for a while. He didn't open his eyes until the butler outside the room reported that the banquet had begun. He stood up on the sofa and left the room.

As soon as he walked out of the room, he had a kind smile on his face and greeted every guest he met.

Today was his son's birthday party, and he didn't need to socialize too much.

When he went downstairs and saw the young earl who was obviously different from the elderly nobles around him, he asked someone to bring two glasses of wine and walked in that direction.

"Earl Campbell, your arrival makes the whole banquet tonight more glorious." Grand Duke Nanweier's face was full of smiles, and he took a glass of wine from the tray of the waiter next to him, "I heard that you have been suffering from acclimatization since you came back from Backlund. How are you recovering now?"

"Thank you for your concern, Grand Duke. I'm much better now, otherwise I wouldn't be able to attend the banquet tonight." Hasta smiled and raised his glass and touched it lightly with the glass in Grand Duke Nanweier's hand.

The two stood and exchanged a few words, attracting the attention of many nobles. At this time, the Grand Duke of Southwell looked around at the nobles here and introduced enthusiastically: "Everyone, some of you may not know the outstanding young man standing next to me. He is Earl Hasta Campbell. He helped our Southwell County solve the problem of coastal pirates. Why don't you come and toast him?"

Because of the Grand Duke of Southwell's introduction, Hasta drank more than a dozen glasses of wine. After the banquet, the whole person was drunk.

The Grand Duke of Southwell quickly asked someone to help Hasta back to the room that had been prepared for a long time to rest.

Hasta, lying on the bed, lifted a corner of the quilt, looked at the dark room, and sighed.

Really, can't this Grand Duke of Southwell change some new tricks?

Always such a lame operation, it really makes it difficult for him to cooperate well.

It is necessary to pretend to be drunk to give them a chance to act.

I don't know who he will send to plot against me this time.

It should be a certain extraordinary person who thinks he is powerful.

Hastur was not too worried. He selected four people from the Yellow Monks, two of whom were Sequence 4 demigods.

Caius's lack of confidence was necessary. Since he came to the Yellow Monks, some extraordinary people who had been trapped in Sequence 5 for many years, as if blessed by some good luck, have successfully been promoted.

In addition to Lady Lisa's promotion to Sequence 2, there was also a member who was promoted from Sequence 4 to Sequence 3.

In the eyes of Lady Lisa and other members of the Yellow Monks, this was a gift from the gods.

Hastur thought for a while, then covered the quilt again, crossed his hands and placed them behind his head, waiting for the hunter tonight.

At about two o'clock in the morning, when Hastur almost fell asleep, there began to be different movements in the room.

A shadow flowed in through the gap of the window like a pool of black liquid, then gathered at the corner of the wall and returned to its human form.

The extraordinary ability of the shadow, did Grand Duke Nanwell really invite an assassin?

Hastur, who was lying on the bed, watched the scene in front of him. When the assassin was about to take action, he shouted, "Chaos!"

The figure just stood there stupidly, looking like he couldn't move at all.

Hasta lifted the quilt and stood up, shouting again: "Corruption!"

The black breath of corruption began to rise from the ground and spread along the soles of the figure's feet.

At this moment, the black figure, who should have been unable to move because of the chaos, pounced over like a clever cat, and the dagger in his right hand flashed in the dark night with a sharp edge that was enough to cut the throat.

She was very fast. Obviously, she was not affected by the chaos at the beginning. She deliberately wanted to let herself relax her vigilance and then kill her with one blow.

Hasta spit out the word "confinement" unhurriedly, and two star chains flew out of his body, tying her up before the person could react. She fell heavily from mid-air to the ground, knocking down the chair next to the tea table, making a crisp sound of wood breaking.

After solving the trouble, Hasta had time to think about what happened just now.

It is impossible for a normal person not to be affected by chaos, so she is not a human, but a puppet, or a secret puppet.

There is a secret puppet master hiding in the dark tonight!

Grand Duke Nanwell was really generous, and actually invited a puppet master.

And he was very cautious, first using his puppet to explore the way, and then hiding in the dark. This is a very standard puppet master's fighting method.

Not to mention, just knowing this trick is much better than Master Luo.

He was not deliberately insulting Luo, but telling the truth.

After a while, the person tied by the star chain suddenly stopped struggling, and his eyes were empty as if he had lost his soul.

Hasta guessed that the puppet master hiding in the dark was caught.

The puppet master can use the spirit thread to control his puppet, but there is a certain distance limit. This alone is enough for the members of the Yellow Monk to easily find his foothold.

Hasta put his mind on the puppet in front of him again. This is actually a Sequence 6 Pleasure Witch.

This puppet master is really amazing to make a Pleasure Witch into a puppet.

However, if such a Pleasure Witch's puppet is used for assassination, does it need to sneak in through the window gap like this?

Shouldn't she appear in her room as a maid?

Taking advantage of the moment when she was seduced by the charm of the Witch of Pleasure, she would wait for an opportunity to assassinate him. Wouldn't the success rate be much higher this way?

Could this be another Master Luo?

Maybe they are really the Dragon and the Phoenix.

While Hasta was thinking, the door was knocked. Hasta said, "Come in." The yellow monk member who was responsible for guarding the periphery brought a man and a head that had just been cut off and was still steaming.

There are two people assassinating tonight?

Hasta asked people to light up the lights in the room, and then looked at the captured middle-aged man.

He was about forty years old, with a scruffy beard, and looked a little handsome. He should have charmed many girls when he was young.

When Hasta was observing him, his eyes were fixed on the Pleasure Witch Secret Doll tied to the ground. After confirming that she was not injured, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then his eyes were filled with disgust and disdain.

What a complicated look.

Hasta's intuition told him that there must have been some interesting story between the Master of Secret Dolls and the Witch of Pleasure.

Hasta sat on the edge of the bed, looked at a member of the Yellow Monk holding the head in his hand and asked, "Is this also the assassin tonight?"

"Yes, our people saw him come out of the study of Grand Duke Nanwell with their own eyes, and then came nearby tonight, but he was captured by us before he could make a move."

"He is a Sequence 4 Fallen Earl. During the fight, we couldn't capture him alive. We could only cut off his head and bring back his extraordinary characteristics and the seal he held. This delayed us a little."

"There was a mistake in our work, which allowed a secret doll to approach your room. Please punish us."

The member of the Yellow Monk explained seriously and fearfully.

"..."

Hasta thought they deliberately let a secret doll in to practice for him, but it turned out to be a work error.

A Sequence 4 Fallen Earl died here like this. Isn't his luck too good?

But if you think about it carefully, there are four winners of the destiny path standing in this room. If you add me, there are five destiny darlings favored by destiny.

With such a high luck value, it is indeed possible that such a thing as a pillow will be given to you when you are sleepy.

I can only say that I am grateful for the birthday gift from Grand Duke Nanweier.
