Chapter 208 Party
"It seems that the young lady has been affected to some extent..."

In the carriage, the maid Mil sat opposite Lula, looking at the young lady who was staring out the window in a daze, and she couldn't help feeling a touch of sympathy in her heart.

"Ms. Lula, it's okay now." Mil held Lula's little hand and comforted her softly.

Then she seemed to feel that her words might not be very convincing, so she simply brought up Lula's father, Janos, and said, "That's just a small demon. With the Duke, the kingdom, the brave knights and demon hunters, it can't cause any waves..."

Lucian looked at Mil, whose face was full of sincerity, and didn't know what to complain for a moment.

After all, his psychological shadow came from a powerful ruler who might not even be aware of his existence, from his instinctive reaction or gaze... Let alone his father, the Duke, even if all the people in this world were tied together, it would be questionable whether they could withstand the gaze of that unknown being.

“I’m fine, Sister Mir…” However, even though he was complaining in his heart, Lucian still controlled Lula and forced out a smile.

Lucian responded with a hug from Mir.

……

“We have made all the necessary preparations.” Lucian looked at Lula, who was now sleeping in the bedroom, with a complicated expression. “Thanasis, is it enough to place the decree like this?”

“That’s the theory.” Count Thanasis’ voice sounded in Lucian’s mind.

“That’s good…” Lucian let out a breath. He no longer hesitated and wrapped himself in a wizard robe. Then, wrapped in the shadow airflow, he quickly dived into the shadow space and quickly approached the abandoned bell tower not far from the manor.

As Lucian approached the abandoned clock tower, he soon found a familiar mental fluctuation through his mental perception. It belonged to the wizard "Thunder" whom he had never met.

And around the lightning, there were several obscure aura fluctuations and... the aura of a powerful second-level wizard that Lucian had sensed inside the family manor before.

Lucian shuddered all over and subconsciously stopped approaching. He picked up the wizard's notebook with his right hand and turned to the part that included the "Scarlet Page".

However, at this time his presence had already been sensed by three or four of the auras. These auras were scrutinizing and indifferent, but not yet full of malice.

This also made Lucian feel a little relieved. After pausing for a second or two, he continued to approach the clock tower, but his body had already emerged from the shadow space, leaving only a small amount of shadow airflow covering his face and true breath.

“Shadow?” At the door of the clock tower, a young wizard with blue hair and a monocle with a strong mechanical feel paused after seeing Lucian and the wizard robe he was wearing. Then he grinned and gave Lucian a slightly unfamiliar wizard salute.

"I'm Raiden. I don't know where you were in the wizarding world before, but I'm really happy to meet you here!"

"Looking at him, he seems to be a mechanical wizard..." While Raiden was silently observing Lucian, Lucian was also silently observing him. However, this observation did not last long. Led by Raiden, he walked into the clock tower. After entering a spacious basement, he saw the other members of the party.

The appearances of these members were all very strange. The tallest one was nearly four meters tall, with long and thick hair all over his body, looking like a walking stuffed doll. The smallest one was only twenty centimeters tall, with a human-like appearance, but with two pairs of dragonfly-like wings behind her...

"Newcomer?" A werewolf saw Lucian and gave him a hideous smile that might have been a friendly gesture, or perhaps a protest.

"Everyone, this is 'Shadow' who comes from the wizarding world just like me." Raiden introduced Lucian to the other members with a smile. Some of these members responded with a nod or a smile, while some remained indifferent and did not respond to Raiden and Lucian.

"These people are not bad people, but those who can be pulled into this circle by us are at least outstanding 'players' among the first-level wizards. So these friends are more or less arrogant. You don't need to pay special attention to them." Lei Dian's reminder was transmitted to Lucian through his mental tentacles.

"But there is a rule here, that is, never offend the Judge."

“Judge?” Lucian followed Raiden’s gaze and looked in the direction of the clock tower.

There sat an old man quietly, his body was thin and his breath was extremely restrained. He looked like a candle in the wind, and he might die at any time. But when Lucian looked at him, he could sense the old man's peculiarity, and even made Lucian have an impulse, that is, when the old man spoke, it would represent the final result or judgment. A third-level wizard! Even a strong man at the third-level wizard level, he was only one step away from becoming a "god"!

Lucian quickly determined the old man's realm. He bowed slightly to the old man respectfully, but he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

After all, if such a being were to take action, he would have no chance of surviving.

"Don't worry, little guy. What I need now is 'notarization' and 'ruling'. As long as you don't violate the rules I set, I won't take action."

Just when Lucian was feeling a little uneasy, a strange voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

“Yes, I will follow your instructions.” Lucian shuddered all over. He bowed respectfully and his eyes met with the “judge”.

The "judge" smiled and said nothing more.

"Mr. Judge is the only one among us who has actively entered this dream, and he is also the one who has been reincarnated in the dream for the longest time." Seeing that Lucian and the Judge had already greeted each other, Lei Dian quietly told Lucian some common sense through his mental power.

"But he is different from us. His purpose is to get promoted, so he needs to conduct experiments and observations in this special environment. At the same time, he is also the initiator and witness of our gathering. Remember, do not lie about what you promise or say in front of Mr. Judge, otherwise you will be faced with a ruthless "judgment."

Lucian nodded silently, and also found a place to sit down under the guidance of Raiden.

"Then let's get started." The judge waited until most people had arrived, then he tapped lightly on the table in front of him, signaling the start of the party.

The scene was quiet for a moment, and then, before the judge confirmed that he would not speak, a player with a giant single eye on his head spoke first. His voice was a bit harsh, and it was a language Lucian had never heard of before. However, perhaps because of the peculiarity of the dream world, he was able to understand the meaning of the player's words easily.

"Where's the 'Dead Soul'? I brought the Lion Sage Grass he needs, three units in total!"

While he was talking, he brought three bundles of grass that emitted a peculiar smell to the table. At the same time, he looked around, looking for the player "Necromancer" who had pre-ordered this kind of grass from him before.

"The undead is dead. According to the rules, the transaction is invalid, and the deposit he gave you also belongs to you." The judge raised his eyelids slightly and said in a low voice.

"Damn it..." The one-eyed player muttered softly, but did not dare to say anything else. Instead, he quickly put away the three bundles of lion rat grass and fell silent.

"I need poison, any poison will do. It must be able to kill... poison that can kill those so-called awakened ones in this world." Another player spoke, and soon three players raised their hands to indicate that they were willing to trade with him.

In the end, the player chose the petite female player with dragonfly wings that Lucian had noticed before. After a brief exchange, the two sides seemed to have agreed on a price. Then, a drop of golden ink flew out from the buyer and was then collected by the dragonfly woman into her own vessel.

"That golden ink is the standard currency for transactions here. After all, the magic stones we use in the wizarding world are just some beautiful stones for players of other cultivation systems. Only 'ink' is considered the hard currency of this world. If you have ink, you can buy some pretty good things here." Lei Dian reminded Lucian in a low voice.

Lucian nodded slightly, but did not rush to take out the ink for trading. After all, he knew how precious ink was, and he would not use the ink that could write special laws to easily exchange for something that seemed precious but was useless.

"I need bones, some bones rich in energy or cursed items." Just as Lucian and Raiden were whispering, a player whose body was made of bones spoke hoarsely.

“Bones?” Lucian’s heart moved, and he thought of the animal bones he had obtained from the player and the huge battle axe made of bones.

Those bones have patterns similar to witchcraft models, but most of them are ordinary animal bones. At most, they contain some energy and can be used as materials for refining witch tools or setting up witch formations. It would be a good choice if they could be traded for some ink.

“I have some here…” Thinking of this, Lucian raised his hand slightly, and at the same time, with a hoarse voice, he looked at the player made of skeletons.
